Life Begins



At T-minus 1 minute until birth, the bloody, unborn fetus that would become Justin Jaeger was already brimming with fiery impatience. As his mothers birthing canal widened, light filtered into her womb. The time had come and the fetus could stand no more.  9 months he had sat festering in her placenta, which two days ago he had devoured to give himself the strength he needed for the desperate act he was about to commit.  A desperate act which would come to symbolize the next 30 years of his life on earth.  Pawing and scratching he tore himself from his mothers abdomen.  He quickly pushed his head out and took in his first breath. Peering over the top of his square rimmed glasses he looked at the doctor with intensely blue eyes. "Hey buddy" said the little bloody baby, awkwardly shaking the doctor's hand and simultaneously hugging him, leaving the doctor soaked in serum.  He then raced out of the room, scraping his ankles to the bone as he stumbled into the door jam,  straight out of bedlam and straight into Insanity.
