Alcatraz
A man woke up for what seemed like the millionth time in his cold, dark cell. He sat there for a minute, thinking about what he'd done. He robbed at least 50 banks in the past year, and killed at least 500 people. Every morning, he remembered each and every one of his victims. Every day, the same result-he felt no guilt. Eventually, he realized he enjoyed it. He'd brought a knife to a gun fight 50 times. And he won every time. Until 3 months ago.
Walking into the bank, he didn't expect much. It was a medium sized town in Illinois. But what he found in that bank was much worse than money. He found not only 50 or so police men-he also found another super being. He never though there could be more beings like himself. But the truth was there, right in front of him. And then, he was frozen solid.
That's how he ended up here. Alcatraz. The rock. The most secure prison in the United States. Most inmates never expected to get out. They just waited for the year they would die. But for that man, that wasn't an option. When he turned 24, his cells stopped dying. He stopped aging. He could not be killed by disease or old age. So he had two options: wait in Alcatraz for an eternity, or do the impossible and escape.
He planned his escape for many years. Then one day, his chance came. A guard opened the door a little too slow, and before he knew what happened, the man knocked him out. The man took the guards gun and knife, and ran toward the sound of the ocean outside.
***
The man, who had decided to call himself Alcatraz, looked at the ocean. He could see San Francsisco in the distance. There, lay a chance to continue what he enjoyed. Behind him lay his namesake, and plenty of dead guards. He left nobody who got in his way alive. From then on, the world would learn to fear Alcatraz.
For many years, Alcatraz watched the world around him grow. He ran with various gangs, robbed thousands of banks, killed thousands of people. But none of it satisfied him. Then one day, he heard of an organization. He knew then it would give him a purpose. He set off to find Sebastian Kain and join the ERA.
