Prologue: Introductions

If someone were to ask me if I considered myself a hero for the things that I have done…my answer would have to be “No.” There are things about me that you will wish you had never known. I am no hero. My brother is, my father is, I’m not. I guess I should explain who I am...my name is Radia Daku, I come from a planet known as Coralia. A planet much bigger than Earth, so as you can imagine, there are differences, let me explain.
Our anatomy is much like a humans’, the thing that divides us are our eyes, wings, strength, speed and intelligence, we also have an inborn sense of direction. Our eyes, well, a physical description would be something like this if you had never met a Coralite before, you would pretty much say that it looks like my eyes are piercing your soul, which is further from the truth than you know. Where a humans’ eye would be white, ours is black, and where the iris comes in only certain colors, ours come in several different colors, our pupil remains the same, black, each with their own advantages, some of the more prevalent colors are blue, green and yellow. Mine are red which is one of the rarer colors, they allow me to see in the dark, my mothers are blue, they allow her to focus on fast moving objects, and my fathers are green, which allows him to focus in on detail from far away, or even up close. The red comes from my great-great grandfather, we can also change our eyes to make them look as though they were human, that is when we don't need their abilities. We move faster in darkness, about twenty times faster than an average human. In the day, we can run about ten times faster than the average human. I have to be precise when I'm running at that speed but everything is in slow motion when you're running that fast at least from my perspective, so that’s not an issue. We also have telekinesis and, well, obviously have the ability the fly, hence the wings, mine are black, another rarity in my species, the most common wings are shiny blue or white, the wings have different traits to them as well, like the eyes, Coralites that have white wings have healing abilities. Coralites who have shiny blue wings have tougher skin than other Coralites, the others I'm not sure about, since my mother has white wings and my father has shiny blue, those are the only ones I know for sure.
Enough about my race, let's talk about me and my family for a little bit, I'm about six feet two inches tall, seventeen years old, I have lopsided, medium length, long enough to cover my left eye, jet black hair that is side-swept to the right. My eyes, when they look like a human's, are a bright blue in color, and I weigh about two hundred twenty-five pounds, which is all muscle, you wouldn’t be able to tell my weight though, I look like a stick compared to someone with similar muscle mass. Compared to a human, I am as pale as a ghost it's a trait that spans across my entire race, even though I'm constantly outside training and working out. My strength is about fifteen times that of the above average humans, then again, most Coralites are. I usually wear a black, baggy shirt to hide my wings, with black jeans, and a necklace, with what most humans would call the Cancer Zodiac sign, my mother says that it's the sign for family in Coralite, both my parents have the same necklace. My father is around 6 feet and my mother is just an inch shy of 5 feet 7 inches. Both of my parents have jet black hair, my father's eyes are normally green when he doesn’t need his true eyes and my mother's eyes are hazel when she doesn't need hers. We left Coralia fifteen years ago, twelve years ago we landed, and were taken in by an FBI agent, we learned English, and a few months later we were living in a neighborhood in Maine called PinesGrove, it's a small town, surrounded by a large wooded area, I now live a semi-normal life. Anyways, enough about my family and I, let's get to the real story here.
