    I... *tiredly sigh*, I'm Dereck Ferris, I'm... Or was, a professional car racer. I was engaged to Linda Audrey, a beautiful but gold-digging girl who left me as soon as I got into my accident. As I isolated myself in my apartment, I grew depressed and uncared for with a growing addiction to smoking and drinking.
