Born in 1958, he lived a normal life until he was 5, when he was given to the MK Ultra programs by his father. His own father, the doctor who conditioned and fractured him to be an asset for the Secret Space Program. He was handed off to multiple programs to train and expand on his knowledge and skills. Where he was given the moniker: Reaper. His only friend, Billy Reed occasionally was with him in several programs, but Luka's father attempted to keep them separated. He wanted them to grow as brothers, but not the lovers they were becoming. After many failed attempts to keep Luka under control, ranging from: ECT treatments, age regression, and even SRA, Luka was finally released to Sector 24. A faction that ran the reaper program. A program designed specifically around him for his abilities. Although his father saw him as a malfunctioning weapon in his program, he excelled in all others. He grew into his role at Sector 24, with colleagues he learned to call friends, even family, and a lover. He eventually became the Commanding officer. -TRIGGER WARNING- Abuse: Mental, Physical, Sexual Strong Language Gore, Blood, War, and Battles Torture, Animal Cruelty This book dives into an extremely cruel world of MK Ultra tactics, which can involve torture and drugs to fracture the human psyche to create alters in the person. The best to describe is Disassociate Identity Disorder. I have done a lot of research into the topic as well as putting some of my own experiences into my writings.

Many agreed with his cruel ways, but as it always is, quite a few did not. At this point, The United States was slowly falling apart. Gangs and terrorists ruled the alleys, and power-hungry politicians ruled the rest.
