Y/N's parents died when he was five years old. Y/N's father was back from deployment and his mother had an idea to go camping. Y/N's father swerved while trying to avoid hitting a dear. The car fell into a ditch upside down, the only survivor being Y/N. Shepard heard about the car crash so he and and other higher ups decided to take the boy in. Instead of giving him a normal life they decided to use the boy as a test subject for a top secret program. Y/N's wonderful life with his parents were long behind him. Now, he was locked up in a room for most of the day, the closest thing to a bed was a medical chair. A chair he would get tied up to for injections along with other tests. He was forced to wear a shock collar choker. The only thing he had from his old life was a teddy bear.
When he became an adult and the scientists believed he was ready. He would be sent out. Y/N was extremely good in battle, whether it was any type of gun, sniper rifle or close combat. He was amazing at it, that was what he was created for. He was assigned to team run by someone who was apart of the program who created Y/N. One of the soldiers started picking on Y/N, no one cared. Y/N snapped and kicked the shit out of the solider, afterwards he immediately passed out after being shocked almost to death. He was sent to a new team, a team that would hopefully get Y/N in line.

When, Y/N was transferred to the 141. No one knew anything about him, not even a last name just Y/N. The only thing noticeable about him was that he wore a choker. Not even Price knew anything about him, it was all classified. Price assigned Ghost to watch over him but Ghost wasn't happy. He didn't want to babysit some guy. Ghost gave him a tour of the base. Showing him the kitchen, the living area and Y/N's room. "Is this my room?" Y/N asked him "Yeah. Is it not good enough?" Ghost said, extremely annoyed. "No no! It's great." He thanked Ghost and went into his room, closing the door behind him.
Ghost knocked on the door of Price's office and Price invited him in. "Do you need something Lieutenant?" Price asked, not taking his eyes off of his paperwork. Ghost closed the door and leaned against it. "I'm concerned about the new recruit, Y/N. He's a bit off, do we even know anything about him?" He crossed his arms. "It's classified, I don't even know. All I do know is that Shepard himself gave Y/N the all clear." Price puts his pen down and puts his hands together "Why don't you get to know him? The others are in the break room, maybe you'll come out of your shell." Price goes back to his paperwork. "You know that's not gonna happen, Captain." Ghost left.

Soap, Gaz and Y/N were hanging out and watching television. Roach was in the kitchen making himself a snack. Ghost sat down on the couch next to Y/N. "What are you guys talking about?" Ghost asked. "We're getting to know Y/N and, Y/N is getting to know us." Gaz replied. "So, tell us about yourself Y/N." Soap said before he sipped some water. "What do you want to know?" Y/N started fiddling with his fingers. "Tell us about your life." Ghost suggested. "Oh my parents died when I was young. The military took me in, that's all I can say." Everyone gave him a sympathetic look, Soap patted him on the back. They all decided to change the topic of discussion and to enjoy television together.

Everyone on base fell asleep, well besides two people. Y/N was in the kitchen getting himself water, when a figure tapped him on the shoulder. Y/N got extremely scared and turned around. He sighed in relief, it was just Ghost. "Why are you not sleeping, solider?" Ghost crossed his arms "I couldn't sleep, I've never slept in a bed before.." Y/N took a sip of his water. "What? You've never slept in a bed?" Ghost was confused and concerned at Y/N's answer. "I thought it was normal, but it isn't. I'm not supposed to talk about it or I'll get shocked." He pointed at his choker. Ghost was even more concerned "What did they do to you?" Ghost's voice raised slightly which scared Y/N. "I told you, I'm not supposed to talk about it." He started shaking in terror. "Come on, you can write about it." Ghost lead Y/N to the dining table, Y/N sat down. Ghost grabbed paper and some pens and placed them in front of Y/N. He started writing.

After my parents died, I was taken in by the military. I lost my happy childhood, I was injected and tested on. I was locked in a room where the only thing in it was a chair. I was a test subject, created to be the ultimate weapon.

Y/N put his pen down and started crying. Ghost sat next to him and hugged him. "Something similar happened to me as a child, don't worry it'll be alright. I'll protect you." Ghost said and Y/N hugged Ghost back.
