Josh Newton chose to taint his reputation - as well as his family’s - when he was eighteen. He had destroyed his school on weekend’s night. While this was an act of a rebellious son, Josh didn’t pick his target randomly. No, there was a reason why he used his Darkness-type magic to turn the institute into ash. He knew he could get away with - his father was an imminent general, after all.
His friend, Adrian Caille, would be able to tell you that destroying the school - however horrible the crime was - was an unbelievable feat. The spell Josh used was Hell Fire, an advance spell, a hybrid of Fire- and Darkness-type magic. No one knew how he mastered it; no one couldn’t even fathom how he kept it a secret. When Adrian found out what Josh had done, he made it his mission to save Josh, who went to Hades’ Cathedral, Manhattan, leaving a trail of destruction behind him.
Adrian confronted Josh at the deserted nave. A fight occurred. Adrian used his ice to counter Josh’s dark beams, resulting an even battle. Victory was not in Josh’s mind, so he decided to proceed with the last step of his nihilistic plan. The last subject of his destruction was himself. Using a spell to create a pseudo black hole, he managed to suck in every part of the cathedral.
During the last seconds when Josh finally released his hold to the ground, Adrian managed to reach out to him long enough to activate a water spell of his own. It was dangerous not because it damaged, but because it controlled. With it, Adrian controlled Josh’s water molecules that made up 60 percent of his body. While he managed to levitate Josh’s body away from the black hole, he lost control of his own body, and lost consciousness just before he was sucked into the hole.
When Adrian woke up to find himself in the hospital and Josh sat beside him, Josh explained he managed to reverse the spell before it was too late, telling Adrian that seeing his hands being the last part not yet absorbed was the most frightening experience he ever had. He told Adrian he had spoken his feelings to his father. His father cried and hugged him, an act of intimacy speaking to Josh there was hope for their relationship to get better.
