Mr. Black was alone in his office, sitting at his desk and doing nothing, but just thinking to himself. While Mr. Black was usually very calm and confident, today he wasn't really in the best mood for anything right now. Mr. Black, of course, knew why he was feeling this way.


He hated May 5th and he hated it because it always brought back bad memories of his life before he joined and became the leader of the True Justice Organization. Mr. Black just sighed. 'Today's the anniversary of that horrible day that happened all those years ago! I'm 59-years old and it's been 47 years since that day, but it feels like it only happened yesterday!' He thought bitterly to himself.


Mr. Black's Memories Of His Past theme plays.



He remembered of a time in his youth back in the year of 1970, when a much younger and 12-year old version of him was living a happy and comfortable life with his family in the communist Soviet Union (which was what Russia was called at the time). Mr. Black's real name was George Bevvelwitz and most of his childhood had been a bit rough, but also very satisfying. Despite having lived under the strict, corrupt and cruel Soviet Union Government and having little to no political rights, George's family had more than enough money to support themselves everyday.

George's father, Edgar Bevvelwitz, was one of The Soviet Union Government's top diplomats, was loyal to the Communist Party and was often sent to attend meetings in foreign nations as a result of this. While George's father was away, George's mother, Edna Bevvelwitz, was a stay-at-home mom, who thanks to her busy husband that regularly got paid more than enough to pay all their bills and the family's needs and wants, she didn't have the need to work and get a job herself.


Instead, all she had to do was stay home, do chores, keep the house clean, buy groceries and take care of George and his brother. George's brother, Mac Bevvelwitz, was the same age as George was, but unlike George, he had had brown hair instead of black hair.


Mr. Black remembered all the good times that he and his brother used to have together. He remembered that everyday, while their mom was busy doing her daily chores and after they had just come back home from school, they would always play in the snow and play hide-and-seek and other kids' games and activities together. 'Those were the days!' Mr. Black thought to himself happily for a moment.

However, just like every other Russian at the time, George and his family were almost always being watched by Communist Party officials and pro-government supporters. In the Communist Soviet Union, George's family had to always obey certain rules and had to conform to whatever changes that the government made, no matter how unfair or ridiculous any of them were! They had to believe that communism was the best form of government that existed and that other systems of government like democracies were considered taboo.

For the first 12 years of George's life, this is what he, his brother and the rest of his family had believed in even when they had witnessed many innocent people being imprisoned or being executed just for trying to stand up for their rights. They didn't care that many people were suffering in communist nations around the world and being killed and falsely accused of crimes that they didn't commit. They didn't care that The Soviet Union might end up causing a nuclear war with the United States!


No! At the time, they only thought and cared about themselves and thought that communism was the best way of life to live.


Then, one day, that all changed!
