PROLOGUE

Every night I went to watch over my town from the tall tower. My owl eyes were able to see everything in the darkness.

Because of this, criminal activity had grown less in my town. The evil people were afraid of me.

They were all afraid of the BLACK OWL.

That was my name, the one in people's mouths in my town. I was a mystery to them.

Nobody knew my true identity.

People only knew there was a young man in black clothes, black mask, black gloves and black shirt with a picture of a black owl. The name BLACK OWL originated from my costumes.

I walked along the top of the tall tower and gazed down. It was a new moon night. The whole town was quiet.

I was wearing my dark clothes and black mask on my face.

The black owl printed on my dark shirt looked like it really wanted to fly from my chest.

I had become the key to the security of humanity.

Day of the municipal district in the town…

Municipal holiday.

Many people had gathered in the town square. They were around an open, raised platform.

This day was pleasant.

Proudly, the mayor of the town went up on stage alongside some town councilors. He was in a suit and tie.

Some people applauded as he moved onto the platform and others hissed at him. The mayor was loved by some people but hated by most of them. Many saw him as a corrupt politician who deserved to rot in prison with other thugs who paid for their crimes.

The mayor began making his speech to the crowd. He spoke glancing every now and then at the papers he had with him. His mouth nearly swallowed his microphone as he recited all that was written on the paper.

His nervousness was noticeable through his impulsive gestures with his hands.

Maybe all his lies made him act like this.

A few moments later, the mayor stopped speaking and looked up. A dark figure passed over his head and landed at his feet beside him.

All the people were surprised by the appearance of the Black Owl standing next to the town mayor.

The mayor looked scared.

My yellow eyes behind my black mask really alarmed him. He looked down at my black shirt and saw the image of a black owl with its open wings, trying to fly to the world.

BLACK OWL! Exclaimed the mayor, quite frightened as he stood before me.

I smiled ironically at him. This was my way to greet him.

Irony against falseness.

Hello, Mr. Mayor.

What are you doing here?

I stared at him calmly.

I came to greet you with the OWL KISS, I answered and pretended to gently touch my dark lips to his face.

All the people were stunned with the scene. When I turned my head from his, he felt his left wrist imprisoned by a handcuff. One part of the handcuff was on his wrist and the other was attached to the microphone.

The people gasped, astonished by my audacity. I was handcuffing the mayor without any official authority.

That was a huge disrespect.

This man deserves to rot in jail! I shouted to the people.

They were silent, listening to me carefully.

Here is all the evidence of his theft!

I pulled a roll of paper and threw it toward the crowd of people.

After that I jumped up and disappeared in the sky.

The next day, the newspapers were abuzz in my town. As fresh as French bread coming from the oven.

TWON MAYOR IS ARRESTED FOR CORRUPTION.

The topic of conversation at my school would not have been another except for the arrest of the mayor and especially the appearance of the mysterious BLACK OWL on the municipal holiday. Teachers had to control their students in order that they would stop gossiping and pay attention in class.

But talking about the BLACK OWL was more interesting than any subject or any other fresh gossip.

That is what the students of my school thought.

Except me.

I sat down at the table in the school cafeteria and pulled my tray of food closer to me.

Hi.

Zora greeted me, laid her tray on the table and sat on other side of the table, opposite me. Besides Hugo
