I held a pocket knife to my friend's throat and pushed her inside her house there was no reaction from her "have you come to kill me?" She asked, I shook my head "no there's no point to that I just wanna talk" I told her. We sat down on the couch "you've been gone for 5 years I looked and I couldn't find you" she said "I disappeared because it was all too much so I ran away from all of it like I always do, pfft what a dumbass I am?!" I muttered. She looked at me "you've changed quite a lot" she commented it was true my hair was a mess, the circles underneath my eyes were darkened from lack of sleep, my clothes were baggy and my hands were scarred. I rubbed my eyes "well I've lived on the streets fighting for a while what do you think?! and please stop staring at me!" I snapped at her, she placed her hand on my face and for a moment I froze. It had been a long time since I had received some comfort from another person I pushed her hand away "but that's not why I'm here, I want to know what that so called wannabe hero thinks he's doing" I said clenching my fists just thinking of that bastard pissed me off he was interfering with my plans and I couldn't allow that I had to eliminate him "he's trying to stop you" she replied. I got up and was about to leave but felt arms wrap themselves around me "please, don't leave, I can help you change for the better, you can be good"  she said to me but that's where she's wrong I don't want to be good nor get better I'm tired of being patient, I just want to save this corrupted species from extinction and get rid of those who want to save the people who aren't innocent I pulled myself away from her "Amaris, the person you once knew is gone"I said before leaving..

I put a bullet into the guy's skull and a couple of men dragged him away "anyone else?!" I asked a small smirk as I clenched my fists my left eye twitching they all took guns out and I yawned softly before pulling out a smoke bomb and running. I grinned as the place exploded those guys were mere obstacles that were in my way and speak of the devil, that bastard hero showed up I call him a hero despite the fact that he's a detective and was my best friend, we were close, him and me, until he left and I was alone but this's no time for a stupid sob story, I have to get out of here. I hated that bastard he was infuriating especially with that stupid belief of his that he was on the right side of the law made me angry, I scoffed and ran away from there. Only for that so called 'hero' to pin me down, I glared at him and he had a look of guilt? or pity on his face I pushed him away then ran like I always did he chased after me obviously I jumped over trash and then smirked at him "see you, hero" he was pissed and that made me laugh I ran towards my cabin. It was surrounded by forest and that was my refuge I lived alone and would survive off animals I hunted

I had the hero right where I wanted him he was restrained "Jack, get out here right now" he yelled so I revealed myself he was shocked when he saw me I mean who wouldn't be when you see a person with part of their face burned. "Hello Jade" I said calmly "Jack.... your face" "oh this, you like it I mean you did give it to me after all" I pointed at the burned part of my face. "Jack, I didn't-" I cut him off "save it" he looked at me "I know you were the one who ordered the explosion to my cabin" "I did but I didn't know" "keep your freaking mouth shut" I said glaring at him I grabbed the back of his neck pulling him in close "the only thing you did was take away everything from me" I whispered into his ear before pulling away and rubbing my burned eye, my vision was going to be messed up for a while now. I wanted him to pay but I had to wait until boss allowed me to do so. I turned back to look at him, his eyes were wide and he trembled, honestly the expression was so hilarious I started laughing until I could barely breathe. I went over to him and wiped the tears from his face "well Jade don't be so disappointed, you did your best but you failed, now it's my turn" I smirk as I say those words, he turned me into this and I would make sure he never forgot it "but I'll leave you alone for now" I said before turning and walking away he yelled at me demanding answers that I couldn't give him. He was my target and I had a profile about him given to me by the boss, the only thing I remember is that I had hit my head on something hard and then waking up to see this man come up and help me out of there, I saw a cabin up in flames and that bastard detective leaving the scene I was confused as to what I was even doing there but I followed the man and he told me who he was. This man's name is Radley Finnegan, he was one of the town deputy's and head of the Detective and Armed Men Agency or DAMA for short I went with him bc I didn't know what else to do nor did I have a home, he let me live with him and offered me a job as a bounty hunter I took it but in order to hunt down criminals I had to train. The boss trained me for about a year and that's when I was supposedly reported 'missing' even though it wasn't true. I reached my breaking point and when I felt like giving up the boss helped me he told me what to say in front of the people I kidnapped to mess with them. I rubbed the burned skin from the right side of my face, it was a first degree burn but it annoyed me although some cool water would help until the pain went away. It would take about 3-6 days for it to heal or to even get my vision back but I was determined not to lose my sight. There was a knock at the door and I opened it "you're back, come on I got him in the basement" I told him, the boss followed me and Jade's expression was amusing that I just smirked "chief? What are you doing here?" Jade asked him "I'm here to dispose of you, you were getting up the ranks and I couldn't have someone take my spot" the chief said "you" Jade had his head lowered "you traitor!!" he glared at the chief "call me what you like but that won't change anything" the chief said as he pulled out a gun "Jack!!" Jade yelled. I jumped at the sound of my name being called "come on Jack, I know you're in there" I covered my ears to try and block out his voice "Jack remember the time we first met in kindergarten and you got mad at me because I destroyed your sand castle but then we became friends when I defended you from bullies" he said quickly "shut up" I snapped at him. I closed my eyes and was welcomed with the image of a smiling face looking at me and a hand outstretched. I put my hands away from my ears and grabbed the gun from my back pocket, I aimed it at the boss and, why was I shaking? I killed people before but this was different, I was about to kill someone I knew. I breathed deeply before pulling the trigger, the chief's body collapsed onto the concrete floor and blood was splattered onto the wall I felt like throwing up, this was, I didn't, why couldn't I breathe?! WHY CAN'T I BREATHE?!?! Then suddenly my body reacted on its own and I was untying the bastard he seemed surprised but so was I. I had no idea what I was doing but I just wanted to get out of this place, it was no longer safe for me I wanted to leave, to get away from the corpse in front of me. My vision was fucked and I couldn't focus on anything the bastard wasn't tied up anymore but he looked worried and was he speaking? I couldn't tell because he began shaking me trying to get me to talk but why should I? I didn't owe him anything, did I? My body went limp and the corpse was the last thing I saw before everything went dark. When I finally woke up, I was handcuffed to the bedpost and sighed, I moved my head slowly but instantly regretted it as I felt a massive headache approaching and my eyes beginning to blur I sat up and broke the handcuff. I rubbed my bruised wrist and looked around, that's when the door opened, 'great, just great' I thought as I glared at that bastard hero of a detective, he was dressed casually and we just stared at each other for a second before he spoke "how'd you get out of the handcuff?" he asked me "it wasn't that difficult" I muttered softly "what do you remember?" He asked "not much, just the chief helping me get out of some place and you running away from a burning cabin also some of the training, it's just bits and pieces but I hardly remember anything past that" I explained "also killing a couple of drug lords here and there" "Jack, what happened to you after I left?" I stayed quiet pondering the question but I was suddenly filled with rage that I couldn't quite explain. I looked at him properly 'who even is this guy?' I asked myself he may have been my target but he seemed to know me personally and that made me wonder about what had happened between us for it to turn out like this. I couldn't remember things but I did know that I had to run away from this person not out of fear but because he was the mere representation of the past that I wanted to forget and if he didn't let me go now I don't think I'd ever be free of him. I got up and he grabbed me by my bruised wrist, a gun in his hand "I can't let you run off Jack"he told me I rolled my eyes and pulled myself away from him "I'm a wanted man and I've murdered people so either you stay the fuck out of my way or kill me right now" I tell him before grabbing his hand and raising the gun to my forehead, it was cold to the touch  "pull the trigger" I say closing my eyes not even bothering to move he was shaking and I opened my eyes to see him glaring at me he dropped the gun on the ground and kicked it away but not before he grabbed me by the collar and made me face him  "you idiot! I understand that you're a criminal but you can't just ask me to go off and kill you, you're my best friend and still are, you know me better then anyone else and asking me to kill you is just plain stupid" he shouted looking at me directly in the eyes I shoved him and straightened my shirt "well then I guess you don't know me as well as you think you do" I said "you're going to stay here until you get your memories back, you should at least get to know who you used to be before I send you to jail" Jade told me. "Fine, but you know this won't help at all" I say before sitting back down on the bed "I'll probably be like this for a while besides why not just send me to jail?" I asked him. Jade looked at me "you killed bad people and that makes you a vigilante, you practically took the law into your own hands and remade it into your own image and that's what makes you so frustrating to deal with when I'm the one who's tracking you and trying to take you down" he said before letting out a deep breath "but you know why I won't take you to jail?! And do you know why I won't even arrest you and let you live here rent free" he glanced at me and scoffed  "because for some fucking reason I still care about you even though I shouldn't because you're the criminal and I'm the detective!" He walked out of the room closing the door behind him. I narrowed my eyes and decided to get up and look around the place. Jade was putting his trench coat on and had his gun strapped to his belt "don't do anything stupid while I'm gone" he said and I glared at him "I know what to do when I'm in a freaking stranger's house, thank you very much" I say sarcasm in my voice he rolled his eyes at me "also feed my cat, please?" He asked before leaving "whatever" I muttered I locked the door and shut all the windows. I began cleaning the place up since I was bored and there was literally nothing else to do. I fed the cat and just watched it eat, it was a tom with gray fur and blue eyes and he was watching me as well he poked me on the nose with his paw and I patted his head. I looked around the cabinets and began wrapping my face in non-adhesive bandages, I took a quick shower because I haven't bathed in like a freaking week and it was gross then after that I changed clothes. Turns out the only thing that this bastard has are different colored shirts and 6 pairs of black pants no jeans,also who in the hell needs like a dozen trench coats!! I shrugged and  decided to just look for a good channel on T.V. I stopped on the news channel and was shocked when I saw my face on the screen I mean I knew I was a criminal or whatever but did I actually murder 50 people?! No that wasn't right, I only killed the people that the boss told me to kill, then I saw what looked to be my family I think, it was a women and a man and they were shouting "I'm glad the brat is gone, at least he won't be an embarrassment anymore!!" The women who I assumed was my mother yelled I flinched at those words then the man who I presumed to be father spoke "I hate him, he's no son of mine" that was like a punch to the gut and I immediately turned off the T.V. I didn't want to hear anymore of that I just went into the kitchen and made some eggs which I ate in a hurry before heading off to sleep. I was barely dozing off before I heard the front door open and someone walk into the room then I heard Jade's voice "hey Jack, I know that your probably asleep or won't even remember what I say but.." he sat on the edge of the bed and my hair was covering my face so I don't think he could tell I was awake or not "I'm sorry" I snapped my eyes open and stopped myself from getting up. I just listened to what he was saying "I know that it must have been difficult for both you and Amaris when I left since you and I have known each other since kindergarten and her through high school, you probably saw the news and yeah those are your parents, I hope it didn't upset you too much" Jade sighed before looking at me "I'll help you get your memories back and you can hate me all you want by the end of it" I heard him whisper before I felt his hand mess with hair "goodnight Jack" he said before draping the blanket over me then leaving. I put my arm over my face and sighed "fuck" I cursed underneath my breath, he was sincere with his actions but any moment now he could arrest me I could fight sure but for how much longer I couldn't trust him or myself because I hardly even knew what was real anymore. The only things I did know is this:
1. The chief was a manipulative son of a butch who trained me to be a literal killing machine
2. My parents hate me
3. Jade was the only person I could trust right now
Although did I even trust him? I don't know but he was my only link to the outside world, we would have to eventually talk sooner or later but I decided to just get some rest, all these thoughts were overwhelming.  I woke up to a crash and got up, a knife in my hand I crouched low to the ground and walked very carefully, without making a sound, into the kitchen. It was a total wreck and Jade was wrestling with someone on the floor, I decided to help him out and got behind the person holding the back of the knife at their neck "don't move" I said "get up slowly and turn around" the person did so revealing themselves to be a women "Jade, you mind telling me who the hell this is?" I asked him he got up and went to my side leaning on me " I don't know " he replied I pinched the bridge of my nose I really didn't want to deal with this so I handed the knife to Jade "she's your problem, not mine, you deal with it" I told him before heading back to the guest room the women screamed in Jade's face that's when I stopped and ran towards her making her body collide with the wall, I snatched the knife from Jade and pointed the tip of it directly at her eye "I wonder, how much does an eye cost on the black market?" I asked looking at her a small smirk on my face "people never learn when to shut up " I said she was trembling and looking at Jade "don't look at him he can't help you" I said glaring at her "now I'm only going to tell you this once you say absolutely nothing and I won't kill you, got it?" She nodded slowly and I pulled the knife away "now get the fuck out of here" I pushed her out the door and locked it. Jade looked at me "do you realize that you just exposed yourself?!" He shouted at me "so what if she's smart she won't say anything, don't worry about it and even if I get exposed I'll just disappear again like I did last time" I told him he grabbed me and I stared at him "don't you dare disappear again" he told me his eyes reflecting the fury he felt and for once I listened. It was strange but what I began to fear was his rage my vision began blurring and I shut my eyes rubbing the side of my head  "hey I'm Jade, sorry about destroying your sand castle but you wanna be friends" I heard a little boy say, he had a bruise on his arm and then I saw my younger self taking his hand before they both ran inside the school, a smile on their faces. I opened my eyes and saw Jade looking at me "Jack you alright? you zoned out" he told me "I-I'm ok, just, a memory came back, and you were right when you said that we met as kids"I said before sitting down slowly on the couch. Jade sat down next to me "maybe some photos could bring some memories back" he suggested I nodded slowly "that doesn't sound like a bad idea" I told him he nodded and got up then came back with a photo album in his hands we looked through the photos together and Jade pointed out certain people. I just listened to him ramble about the things we've done and what our high schools years were like I also asked a bunch of questions most he answered and some he refused to reply to, in the end we both ended up being too tired to get to bed so we slept on the couch, on the opposite sides of each other. I got up early in the morning to look through the photo album and was surprised to see a photo of me, Jade and some girl we all had our arms around each other and smiling at the camera it was hard to believe that that was actually me in the photo, I looked happy... I pulled myself away and shut the photo album then I just looked at Jade, he looked peaceful in his sleep which almost made me feel bad when I woke him up. I needed to talk with him though "Jade get up, right now" I said he sat up slowly and rubbed his eyes

The main reason why he's a villain is because he's tired of society and letting bad people get away scot free without punishment also society's norms on what's right and wrong there was a time he wanted to burn it all down but got rid of the idea because there's no point to it he just wants everyone to help someone like him get off the streets and to be accepted
He wanted people to start caring about the ones on the street or at least help them out with something but also not force their religious beliefs onto another person.

Jack was raised in an emotionally abusive household which led him to being kicked out since his parents didn't want him anymore

He was close with the hero in high school

He lost everything when his family kicked him out leaving him with no one to turn to

he lost it all when his cabin burned down reminding him that whatever he had would always be destroyed

He gets his memory wiped and is brainwashed by the chief of police to work for him on disposing the bad people, he's trained ruthlessly to his breaking point but shows no mercy to his enemies

The hero is shocked and tries to save the villain by reminding him of who he is, the villain betrays the chief and ends up remembering everything of his past and tries to kill the hero

The villain gets a mental breakdown and starts laughing he has a conversation with the hero before he shoots them killing them both but not before thinking that it was all for nothing ironically the hero saves him again
