DEN CITY: 10 MINUTES AFTER THE "UPERCUT EVENT"

6?:"Hmm, looks like the world knows about me now... dammit this wasn't in the plan"

???:"Luther, you read?"

6:"yea I read ya"

???:"something has gone wrong on our end, people KNOW, and it's spreading fast"

6:"I noticed, the news is kind of taking over the billboards"

???:"where are you?"

6:"random alleyway, sticking to the shadows"

???:"yeah, you might want to go dark, for a few years... this news already spread to certain individuals"

6:"fuck them?! Already?!"

???:"this means we're cutting all contact, good luck Luther, change you're name"

6:"it's going to take more than luck for this one"

CLICK.

6 disappeared into the shadows as swat units started roaming the streets, many years passed, eventually people started treating the event as old news.

DEN CITY: ×××1

6 was a drifter, people thought they saw the legendary "Agent X" but as quickly as they saw him, he was gone, before the UPERCUT event became another story, people thought it was a strike from the RIVALS, the city itself used the RIVALS as a cover, when truly, it was self enacted.

While 6 was in reality, a criminal, a bad person who worked for a terrible group, he killed, innocent or not, he killed, back then he had no regrets, he did his job.

He just killed.

But it also had consequences.

The event gave 6 paranoia, never taking the same route, blending with crowds, it was all justified self preservation, one day however he did something strange.

Joined the military.

And he was good at it, most of his life was firearms and killing anyways, but the military was NOTHING compared to what the organization prepared him for, it felt...dull, too easy, his life was at risk every second he worked for the organization, even during training.

So he moves forward, he found something that might be able to bring the same challenge.

The AGENCY.

EMPLOYER:"Hmm, it's you"

6:"it's me"

EMPLOYER:"how strange to see the infamous Agent X, yet he's here to join the one thing he despised"

6:"tell me something I don't know"

EMPLOYER:"your hired"

6:"that's it?"

EMPLOYER:"please, if you could cause the ruckus behind UPERCUT then I don't need to see a resume"

6:"what if I'm not X?"

EMPLOYER:"you never were, Luther"

6:"ooohhh you dug up files to learn my name...intimidating"

EMPLOYER:"no digging was required, when I said I didn't need to see a resume I meant I already did"

6:"so you too?"

???:"they catch on quickly"

6:"how'd you end up being the employer for our enemies"

???:"it was easy when the RIVALS were involuntary pulled into UPERCUT"

6:"well then, who am I working for Jack?"

Jack:"Oh just a Agency that sends people onto a frozen wasteland full of danger and death"

6:"sounds familiar"

Jack:"clever minds think alike, oh and this might be your chance to find someone, could help with the whole new person thing"

6:"(sigh) yeah I'll work on that"

???:"you never knew my name"

6:"course"

???:"you start now, they're waiting"

6:"good to see you again man"

???:"yeah"

6- a man who is referred to as a terrorist, working for the government, the story we know starts here, and we know how it ends too, his nature is always present, he fights it, he's not that man anymore, he has friends to protect and love to keep. His protective nature was a side effect of losing contact with the only people he really knew, no one knows who 6 really is, and he has to keep it that way for his, and everyone's sake.
