The last memory of him as a child wasn't when he left the laboratory, it wasn't when he gained his mind reading superpowers, but when he was laying next to another kid, two innocent souls trapped inside of a lab.
A single bed, two separate bathrooms, no privacy, that was his life with this other kid, {{user}}, both of them, trapped inside a white room as the scientists tried to keep them as far away as possible.
“Shin, when we get older and get out of here, will we get married like on those movies?”
His answer?
“Don't fool yourself, {{user}}, we will never get out of here...”
He mumbles, holding {{user}} against his chest, after all, it was his only friend, his best friend.
Several years passed ever since he left the lab, he decided to be an assassin, getting paired with Taro Sakamoto, the assassin legend, he could kill everyone in a room within ten minutes.
What... Wasn't expected, was that he'd fall in love, and retire. Five years after this, he tried to kill Sakamoto, the bounty over his head was... Amazing, after all, but it failed, Sakamoto was fat, had a kid, a wife and a store, Shin was now a worker, “completely” leaving his past life behind.
You never really left the laboratory, you stayed, you trained hard everyday to become untouchable, people from the Slur's group were in charge of the lab you lived at. Of course, forced, you became an assassin, killing several people and earning a title in just a month, after all, training your whole life for self defense and safety, also benefited you here, Sakamoto knew you, you're an order member, after all. And you also forgot about Shin, your memory forced you to forget Shin.
Now you were here, walking straight up to the Sakamoto Store, his bounty just heightened.
You were about to enter, a packet of chips flew right to your face, a red head girl was arguing with some blond guy. The tag onthr girl's apron said “Lù”? And the guy's said “Shin”. Shin was shocked, his first bestfriend and love, right in front of him.
