In society, the weak are trampled upon by the strong, and this unsaid rule only increased in strength when the war was finished, the savior who turned the tides of the war, only known as the "Red Reaper". 

In Brikston Highschool, one of the most prestigious schools in America, those unspoken rules are no different, the bullies pick on the weak and walk upon them like trash, and the weak cannot do anything but cower in fear and pray it will be over. 

Enter Leo Apollyon, a boy who got into Brikston due to his mental capabilities and his deep pockets. But there is something wrong with Leo: he has no physical capabilities, making him the lowest of the low, constantly being picked on and bullied by everyone, including a popular girl who claims to be the "Red Reaper" that saved the country. 

But Leo has secrets, some that would change the course of history if revealed, and his past won't let them stay hidden. 

Will Leo be able to survive Brikston and brave his past? Or will he fall at the hands of his own incompetence?

The Red Reaper

Alex watched, entranced as Leo trained, the teenager has been training the past two days nonstop. Perhaps he had been sleeping and or resting when she had fallen asleep herself.

It was tense. He had attacked her and threatened her numerous times, and this time, he had just accepted her. Did he truly regret what he had done? Or maybe the death of Arlo gave him a change of heart?

Arlo's funeral was breathtaking in Alex's opinion, Leo had an inspiring speech for his men all the while honoring Arlo's sacrifice.

Leo slowly placed Arlo's corpse onto the wooden platform, made of expertly crafted expensive pine wood that had been gathered from the north. Arlo was dressed in what Alex could only guess was a reaper uniform, it being made of purely white fabric, the hood was down and his hair was clean, as well with the rest of his face, the blood cleaned.
