prologue

The first picture he remembers was his parents being slashed in front of his own eyes.

That was the very thing that motivated him to train; the will to avoid death. To be immortal. While a regular kung- fu student would train on soft dummies, he punched trees, rocks, and even shields and armors; he could sometimes find some in a nearby deserted fortress. The will to defeat the death was powerful.

But somehow, all he felt was nothing but dry pain. No blood was spilled, and no bones were broken. Only dark marks appeared on his skin, nonetheless they were invisible, because of his dark color.

The second picture he remembered was a memory of separation. From his tiny basket he remembered seeing another tiger. There were a few minor differences between the two but there was one big difference he remembered the most- the color; White with black dots. Even if he tried as hard as he could, he could never find another leopard that had the same color. He remembered the white leopard cub was taken out of his eyesight. Chronos himself, a tiny black tiger cub, was taken to a desolated mountain which was just a blur to his young eyes. In days to come he grew to see the mountain as his home.

That's where a giant turtle found him, and adopted him as his son. The wise turtle could see the fear and trauma in the little cub's eyes, and to help him overcome it, he taught him kung fu. Because of the tragedy, he decided to raise Chronos separately from the rest of the world until he is ready. This way, he shall feel safe and secured.

So the turtle taught him how to fight, and the mountain taught him survival. When little Chronos was ten years old, he could run fleetly on the mountain's rocky surface and lightly skip between the giant rocks. When he was fifteen he reached the point when he could feel no pain. If a professional woodchopper would chop down a tree within minutes- Chronos could do it in seconds, with a single strike, without feeling any pain.

For long years the black tiger was confident of his strength and skills. Until it happened.

It has been a few weeks that his 'father' didn't show up, and Chronos began to feel lonely. Then, a vision came, and shook him to his roots.

In the vision he was able to see a blur of black and white. The blurred figure held Chronos's hand in a weird position with its pinky up. After a few seconds, the figure flexed its pinky. A great flash, and death. He never experienced death on his own body, obviously, but there was no doubt. The void of darkness and emptiness was definitely how death felt. The same thing that his parents went through in front of his very eyes as a cub, now he felt it himself. It drove him mad. He had to do something, anything, he had to shake it off.

Chronos would let out his fear and despair into anything that crossed his sight. Trees were brought down, rocks were crushed and shattered into pieces, and every little animal ran away as far as it could. No-one could make it through the mountain alive.

Because Chronos was not able to feel any pain for long years now, there was no escape from this horrible feeling, the feeling of death. Since the vision, the poor tiger could never find peace.

Because of Chronos, no one could enter the mountain and live. Anyone who entered its boundaries was doomed by fate: he could not escape a duel with Chronos, followed by inevitable death.

A short while afterwards, the mountain was pronounced with its new name:Doom Mountain.
