Born into an organization more secret than HYDRA or the Red Room with the goal of peace he was trained since he could walk. A photographic memory really helps when you're trained to fight with every style and speak every language. Grueling training and even worse living conditions prepared him for the worst in every situation. Being taught how to read people made conversation and missions easier. He was taught everything.
    
    By the time he was fifteen, he was the most dangerous person in the organization. He had killed many. Some innocent but he had no choice. Their secrecy is their survival. He still regrets it and already sees himself as a monster.
    
    At sixteen, he signed up for a top-secret project that gave him certain... advantages. But of course, with great things there are side effects.
    
    At seventeen, their enemies found their home base and massacred almost everyone. Him and three others that he knows of got out.
    
    By nineteen, he was the most dangerous man in the world, had gotten a PhD in Psychology of all things, and created an identity for himself.
    
    By twenty-two, he was the world's most dangerous and notorious assassin. He was a myth until he proved otherwise. He was a popular topic of conversation.
    
    At twenty-three, he was approached by a man. A higher-up in the government. A secret branch. He was offered to join their organization and do good. Protect people. SHIELD, they called it. What was his name exactly and why is this important?
    
    Because he's the Ghost. And he's just getting started.
