Life before school:
Mikey spent his early years in Liverpool. He had a relatively normal upbringing and was a happy child. His muggle parents didn't know about magic so he was raised ignorant to his powers. Mikey was only raised by his "parents in passing" Not in a bad way more of the "It takes a village way." He got to spend a good amount of his childhood with his aunts and uncles became well traveled at a young age because of it. Bouncing between Liverpool, Alaska, Hawaii, and Egypt, he learned to have a good respect for peoples differences and that people are generally the same loving kind people wherever you are in time and space.

He especially enjoyed the time he spent with his grandmother in the USA. She had some important job that kept her busy but he never quite knew what. but she had a house on the water and a row boat that he could take anytime. Mikey would spend hours on the water fishing, lost in his thoughts, pretending he was huck fin from the old books. But he always went back home to Liverpool and his mother and father. While at home his imagination and dreams seemed to fade. Probably the repetition of normal life and the monotony of "wake up, go to school, go to sleep." got to him. He still remained positive and a happy kid throughout. Although he did tend to get in to a bit of mischief. it wasn't so much that he found trouble, more like trouble found him. The one thing that made him truly different was a strange fascination with life and death. At an early age he found a wounded bird and was able to nurse it back to health. From then on he took it upon himself to walk the fine line between the living and the dead.

First use of magic:
When Mikey was 9 years old his pet dog died leaving him heart broken. The family buried the dog in the backyard and had a small service. A few nights later Mikey went to the grave, his heart heavy and tears in his eyes he screamed. The ground around his feet started smoking and burst in to small flames. luckily the rain doused the small fire and no real damage was done. His parents not knowing about magic at the time were frightened but thought it must have just been a freak accident.
