Full Name: Theodore Jamenson, Ted, Theo, Teddy
Newsie name: Shadow
Name origin: He's very quiet, and stays in the shadows. So he was named 'Shadow'.
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Birthplace: St.Louis, MO
Currently Living: Harlem, New York
History:Sylvia Pace was 16 when he had his way with her. No matter what she said, he wouldn't stop. She knew him well; he was a family friend. That hurt her more than anything. 3 months later Sylvia realized she had missed her cycle three times. Her father was angry, to say the least. Even though she swore it wasn't her fault, her father believed it was a choice she made with her boyfriend. 6 months later twins were born. Her father forced her to give them away to someone she didn't even know. It broke her heart. She died a year later. Some say of a broken heart, some say it was suicide.
Theodore and Fredrick grew up in St. Louis, Missouri. They always knew they were adopted, but that is all they knew. They grew up in a close community. Some called it a cult, others called it a religion. Neither of them knew any better. This was how they'd been raised. This didn't mean they agreed with it. In fact, both of them wanted out. They didn't agree that one man should have multiple wives. They didn't agree that young girls should be forced to marry men two times their age. Both of them wanted out, but both of them were scared. Finally, after 16 years of that, Teddy and Freddie left. They couldn't stand it any longer. They fled to New York in search of a new life.
When they were in their mid-teenaged years, they wanted to find their own identity. Teddy was a lot more quieter, and stayed in the shadows. Whereas Freddie was loud and vibrant. They were like each side of the brain, Teddy being the left and Freddie being the right. Their differences make their friendship stronger. They each live on separate sides of New York; Freddie in Manhattan, Teddy in Harlem.
Recently, a man named Mike D.Greaser came back to New York. Teddy decided to join with Mike and became a spy for Harlem, whereas Freddie stayed loyal to his Manhattan friends and stayed with them. Both of the brothers tried to get the other to join in each other's ranks, but they stayed with their opposing sides. They can only hope that they don't hurt each other, or that the other doesn't get hurt.
