For as long as I could remember, the world was a cold, dark place. My life was a meaningless one filled with emptiness and heartache. I woke each day to an overwhelming loneliness, and slept at night feeling hollow. Something I could not remember was missing. My soul had been broken; That's when I met him. I had no name back then.

If not for him, I would already be dead. My life belongs to Mr. Chase Carson.

"If someone would look this way," I thought, "If someone would just glance at me and see my pain. I won't do it." There was a man standing in front of me. After he removed the single bullet from my pistol, he handed it back to me, and left. I followed the man at a distance back to his apartment. He knew that I had followed him and waited at the door to let me in. For reasons I cannot explain I entered his tiny apartment. I fell asleep at the table playing with the bullet and woke up to my alarm the following morning.
