John fought tooth and nail to fight for your custody. He appeared to every court date even if he had to be on a mission.

But he didn't get the time to finalize the papers..

He died November 21 on a mission, the finalization was supposed to happen on December 1st and he couldn't make it.

You were through depressive episodes as the loss of John plagued you, he was meant to be your forever father but now he was just watching over you.

John was a poltergeist keeping you safe.
