”𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘴ä𝘯𝘷ä𝘬𝘪”

Markus Kielo Vitta was given his first name after his father. His middle name, though in Finland was more so given to girls, his mother liked the name and decided to give it to him anyways. It would’ve been his first name had he’d been born a girl. Markus’s last name was also taken after his father’s last name.

He would be given the nickname “Metsänväki” by his peers for his time spent in the woods. It was more of a joke towards just how much of his free time he’d spend in the woods as an animal as if he was one with the forest. It just happened to stick with him.

Markus would earn his codename “Snarer” due to what he did as a profession, which was basically leading a many “victims” to their own entrapment during his time of espionage. He also earned his codename with just how proficient he was during this time.

Markus was born and raised in Finland. He lived most of his life as a native speaker in Finland, fulfilling his job’s duties there until later on when he’d decided he’d no longer want to be part of his work force anymore that he’d move to the United States, trying to live a life he thought would be more worth living.

Markus’s sexuality leans towards being more of a panromantic. He is open to loving anyone for who they are instead of what they are.

Markus has a lean build. He’s fit to be plenty athletic and acrobatic but prefers to not show as much definition in muscle due to that just being his preference for his appearance. He’s strong but likes to appear to be softer rather than all muscle.

Markus’s mental state is OKAY for what it can be. He doesn’t try to linger or dread on his thoughts or mind but due to his abilities. It is hard for him to stay 100% a-okay all the time. He can get a bit overwhelmed more often than not just because of all that runs through his mind.

Markus is devoted to helping others. He does his best to do good to all of those around him whether it be for his job or in his free time. He does whatever he can to try and see the best outcome for both sides but will ultimately do what needs to be done in order for the “good” to stay above the “bad.” He does not wish to bring harm to anyone or at least not without good reasoning and even then he tries to take care of everyone in the best possible way without unnecessary harm or conflict.

Due to Markus having seen and relived the memories of so many people’s lives he’s learned from a very young age to be open-minded about everything and everyone. He likes to understand and reason with both sides of whomever he may come across if there’s any conflict. He likes to understand where people have came from and see as to why they may have grown up that way whether it be good or bad. He cares for everyone deeply, which is a good thing but also a bad thing at the same time. Him being so openly empathetic will cause him to experience hurt and backlash if he does not overcome his emotions to do what’s right despite having seen and feeling pity for why they became that way. Markus is also very apprehensive. Though he likes to see the good in everyone and tries to reason with everyone no matter who it may be, he always fears of the worst thing happening. It can cloud his mind at times and cause him to become very overwhelmed.

Markus likes all if not most animals. He likes to shift into animals in his alone spare time. It makes him feel more at peace and connected with the nature that surrounds him. He is not a huge fan of crowded cities and towns. He rather much be in the woods surrounded by the fresh breath of air that the animals and open nature gives him. He is very open to even living amongst and with the animals sometimes.

Markus’s love language is physical touch. Whether it be people messing with his hair, hugging him, or even just poking him. He enjoys it. It brings him happiness as well as when he can hug or hold others close to him. He feels safe and loved that way and feels like it’s the best way that he could express that he loves and cares about others as well. The act of someone touching him means a lot to him. It’s how he feels he can be the closest he possibly can be with others or others with him.

Markus enjoys music as well. Whether it be listening or playing music in his free time. It helps calm him and opens his mind up from being clouded or distracted. He enjoys all kinds of musics but he will lean towards listening or playing more classical pieces. Sometimes if he listens to songs with words he can become distracted with all that’s going on, even though he enjoys songs with lyrics as well— he finds he can be freed or calmed better with songs without lyrics and instead just instruments. He very much likes pieces with piano or violin. Markus enjoyed those instruments so much that he would learn to play them himself so that he could use that as a way to calm himself when he’s alone.

The last thing Markus wants to do is to become overwhelmed. The worst things that could happen always happen when he is overwhelmed and it takes him away from proper reasoning or even things such as being his true self. If he is to become so overwhelmed, he will turn into a being that is not properly controlled by him or even something that he could the mind of. There has been many times he’s been overwhelmed but the one time he finally broke, it cost him a lot. Something that was so bad to him, he might not be able to ever recover from it.

Markus is a very positive guy. He tries to see the best in everything and everyone and will do his best to look on the bright side of everything. That doesn’t mean he can’t see the reality of the situation or goes around skipping with glee but he will never try to dissuade someone from happiness or try to bring them down. The last thing he wants to hear is something negative so he doesn’t imagine others wanting to hear it either even if the circumstances read all but happy. Markus will try to always bring light to the situation even if he thinks it feels otherwise. He knows all the difference it could make for someone if he were to be positive instead of negative around them.

Markus is the type of guy that people could come to and talk with about their problems if they wanted. He wants everyone to be happy so he is willing to listen and try his best to help if that means he can assure that some negativity is ridden of in the process.

Markus hates the idea of causing pain. Even if he had to do it for his job. He never enjoyed it. He would do everything in his power to avoid inflicting pain upon someone at all costs. It sickens him to even think about it. This does not mean Markus won’t take out someone when needed though. He knows what needs to be done. He just makes sure he does the right thing in a way that does not leave the other in the hospital, bed ridden or covered with wounds that will scar them for life.

Markus is also not a big fan of feeling pain so he doesn’t wish to bring others pain if he doesn’t want to feel it either.

As stated before, Markus likes to play the piano and violin to help calm him down. He isn’t much of one to play in front of others but he will if asked. He mostly plays for himself to help bring him at ease. He plays his instruments rather beautifully. Most of the pieces he plays are something that can be considered filled with sorrow though.. but it helps calm him even if it’s an expressive way of telling how he truly may feel about his life and the world around him.

Markus loves baking. Think of him like a fucking grandma who always has treats ready for everyone. Not only is it another way to calm himself down but it is something that brings him joy when he sees other people around him feasting happily on his treats and knowing that they are being taken care of by him in some way. If that is the one thing you’ve eaten today it WILL be Markus’s snacks. 🤬

(Not saying he rather people eat baked goodies instead of proper healthy foods, he would definitely make something healthy for people he felt needed something more to eat— but just in general. :sob: )

Markus has been doing gymnastics since as long as he could . He does it to not only keep in shape but to help him keep and be flexible for any combat related needs. He also does it as a hobby. It helps keep him focused and driven for the time needed.

Markus has Autophobia. Though Markus stays and lives in places alone he does NOT like being alone. He will do everything he can do to stay close to others. Before, when I stated he liked being away from crowded cities, that did not mean he hated all the people surrounding him. He just likes it to be a little bit more open.. but not alone. When he got the chance to be by himself when he worked for the Finnish government, he would choose to stay close to animals or other people. Just anything that would help make him feel less lonely or not fully alone. The thought of being by himself is more scarier to him than being in a room with nightmares eldritch horrors.

(This is not to say he can’t be alone waiting for someone in the bathroom for 5 minutes. :sob: He’s not going to be crying when they come out like “waaaah why did you leave me?! :cry: 🥺🥺☹ :sob: waaahh.” I’m talking like being alone with NOBODY in sight for a long period of time. Not like months or days but at least a couple of hours or so it would start to eat at him.)

Markus has mild Acrophobia. He can do gymnastics and crawl up a ladder or whatever.. but DO NOT put him on a tall ass building. My man will be riding the middle of that roof like there is no tomorrow. Don’t ask this man to go on a rollercoaster either. If you beg him, he will do it.. but you can bet your ass he is screaming the entire time or is just ed out. :skull:

This is Markus.

Markus has Atychiphobia. He is very fearful of failing. If he could he would avoid doing anything that would or could end in failure but he knows that’s not what he should do and for the first half of his life he couldn’t do that even if he wanted to. He does not want to be driven by fear but behind his calm and collected appearance he is cowering at the thought of failing or disappointing anyone. He does everything he can to succeed just so he won’t fail or have to feel the results of failing or disappointment.

Markus has the ability to shapeshift into exact copies of people and animals. Unlike Mystique though, he cannot replicate clothes. His shapeshifting abilities are so precise that he will even replicate any diseases, illnesses, or disorders the person he’s shifting after carries/holds. That is a weakness of his when it comes to shapeshifting. He can also shift into different ages of himself and others but he would have to have been able to see them at that age for him to turn into other people’s younger selves. He can shift into people that have died but he can only stay shifted as that person for so long before his shift begins to decay just as they are. It is also the same with how he may shift as someone with any illnesses or diseases. If he is to shift into someone with a sickness, like cancer, he too will slowly start to feel the effects of the sickness. He has to be careful as to who he’s shifting into for these reasons.

Once Markus is to turn back into his original form, himself, he will slowly start to heal though. He will not continue to keep the disease and etc once turning back into himself but he will carry the side effects for a while until fully recovering in his original form.

Markus also has the ability to read the memories of others and place thoughts inside their head to guide them a certain way in his favor. With this ability, he also can pick up talents, skills, and knowledge from others that he reads the minds of. Basically learning everything they’ve learned through their memories. The only problem is that with living as so many other people and reliving their memories, it takes quite the toll on his mental health and will put him at risk of spiraling into a very bad state of mind, causing him to lose all control if pushed to his limits. He is overwhelmed easily if he is to try and read more than one mind at a time. He can only really focus on one person at a time but he will retain the information of everyone he’s shapeshifted into.

If Markus is to become overwhelmed so greatly, he will turn into a monstrosity that will be able to shift into multiple things at a time while also targeting multiple people’s minds at the same time, leading him to unwilling and unknowingly lobotomize them— or causing them to go brain dead within impact of reaching their minds. This, he is unable to control when brought into such a state.

Markus has a talent for acting. He can already understand how to recreate and live as the person he’s shifting into without this talent but with his acting talent, he can pull off just about any “act” given to him. Furthermore, giving him a better overall performance and outcome from his profession.

Markus has the gift of a strong memory which is also very helpful for what he does. Not only does his strong memory serve him right for his occupation but being able to things no matter how big or small can make the difference for whether someone lives or dies in his case. Though, with his strong memory, he can become overwhelmed and confused with all the knowledge he is forced to and live with. It’s a gift and a curse.

Markus is also great at problem solving. If it weren’t for his many abilities and talents, he wouldn’t be so lucky or as talented with this though. His problem solving comes hand in hand with his strong memory and the job he’s given. It is basically his whole job to problem solve his way into every instance where he can gain the upper hand. If he were not as talented with this, then he would not be so successful.

She loved and cared for Markus more than anything in the world. She would dress him up and do his hair everyday and Markus enjoyed every moment of it.

She was a hard working woman whose occupation was being a teacher at the nearest school. She didn’t have much money but she would do everything she could to make sure that Markus was happy and healthy and that her child was taken care of.

Once Markus was taken away from her by the government, she would be torn apart. Never knowing where her child was being taken and never feeling any closure of whether or not he was safe or even alive. Lotta would search for her child for years until she no longer could. She would be diagnosed with dementia of which would stop her in her tracks from searching for her child any longer. She had searched for him for 13 years.

Markus would have a happy childhood for the most part. He had his mother and their family dog. His father had ed away before he was born but his mother would tell him stories about how much of a great man he was. Markus and his mother were inseparable. Wherever she was, he went with her.. whether it be to her job, out shopping, or just going out. Though, as much as his mother loved him and would’ve gladly brought him along anyways, it didn’t help that he would practically sob his little heart out at the thought of being left alone or left with someone he didn’t know if he were to be babysat. It was rough on his single mother who’d worked two jobs but his mother didn’t complain. She wanted him to be with her just as much as he wanted to be with her. They loved each other very much. Markus also loved their dog, “Pyry,” a white Karelian Bear Dog that had used to be his dad’s dog. At times when he was younger and still confused on names, he would mistake his mother telling him that it was his father’s dog and instead call the dog “Isä” as if he were calling the dog his father instead of taking it in that it was his dad’s dog and not his father. ( :sob: ) Pyry was a very loving dog that cared for Markus a lot and would protect him. The two of them were inseparable as well when they were together.

TW: Attempted Kidnapping & ref of blood being drawn ahead

One day when Markus was at the age of 9 years old, he would be out shopping with his mother. Everything was going fine and the two of them were happily shopping. At one point Markus’s mother had asked him to try on some clothes so that she could buy him some new clothes. It wasn’t often that she would be able to get to buy him new things but even with low income she still wanted Markus to feel loved and taken care of by not always having to stay in the same old clothes he’d worn countless times again. Markus of course did not mind wearing the same old clothes but he would always appreciate how much she cared about wanting him to feel special and loved.

—While Markus entered the changing room and had tried on his new clothes, his mother had gone off to see if she could find him more clothes to try on while he was dressing in the pair he had already at the time. His mother had suggested that he wait inside the room for her until she came back but Markus did not hear her. Whenever Markus had left the changing room to see what his mother thought about his new clothes, she was no where to be found. This alone was something that would make Markus anxious, if not terrified. The fear would build up in him as he frantically would attempt to look around in search for his mother, only for him to be met with a stranger. (TW: KIDNAPPING) The stranger would act politely and caring at first, asking him where his parents were and if he was alone.. but the stranger would soon change to be more aggressive the closer they got in reach of Markus, gripping Markus’s arm and covering his mouth so that he would not make any noise.

Markus was horrified and brought beyond the state of panic. His mind couldn’t take it and neither could his body. At that moment, Markus’s mutation— or mutant abilities would trigger, having Markus shift into a being he knew that would and could protect him. His dog, Pyry. At that moment the stranger would let go of him terrified of what they were witnessing.. but Markus wasn’t done with them. With the state of panic he was in and now the drastic change he’d experienced, it was all too much. His mind was overwhelmed and all he could think about was protecting himself. (TW: BLOOD) As he was shifted as their family dog, Pyry, he would attack the stranger. He would bite their hand and arms until blood was drawn. Markus didn’t want to hurt anyone, but it was all done out of fear.

Markus’s mother would come back to see what the commotion was about in a hurry, hearing screaming and barking brought her to a panic as to what may have happened with her son. (TW: BLOOD) —Fear would strike her heart as she came back to see what was her son, shifting out of his dog form and having blood covering his mouth as he ran crying to her with his arms opened wide— and a stranger screaming in agony as they shouted “DEVIL!” and “MONSTER!” at Markus. She was terrified of what had happened but she would pick Markus up and carry him out in a rush, immediately taking him back home so that she could make sure that he was safe and taken care of.

Once Markus and his mother were home, his mother did her best to try and clean him up all while trying to comfort him.. but Markus had not only gained the ability to shift.. but the ability to see other people’s minds and memories— and what Markus saw in the stranger’s head was something that shook and terrified him to his core. He tried to explain it to his mother but all she could do was cry with him in terror as of why this had happened to her baby. Why did this have to happen to her baby? The two of them together felt so helpless with one another but his mother would do her best to try and help Markus recover.

Weeks after the incident had occurred, their home was visited by a strange group of people. His mother had let them in, thinking they were trying to sell her something but Markus would soon find out their real intentions with his new found ability. He would warn his mother that their intentions were to try and take him from her but it was too late. Once Markus had came out from hiding, they went to grab him immediately. He would scream, beg, and cry out for his mother all while trying to fight them off. His mother would also try to fight them off in attempt to get to her son but in doing so, one of the men holding her back hurt her by “accident” in order to get her to stop fighting back. This drove Markus into madness. He would shift into one of the men that were holding onto him and use his new found strength to try and beat up those that were holding him back so that he could help his mother. It was cruel how close he was to reaching her before he was slammed into the glass table that was in the room in between the two of them, shattering it completely and getting shards of it lodged into his left side. (Scar reference :scream: ) After having been knocked and pinned down once more, he would shift back into himself.. now brought to tears of pain and agony as he felt the sharp pain of glass stuck in his side and the agony of not being able to help his mom nor having it seem like he would get to stay with her now.

They would knock him out entirely by pressing down on one of his pressure points before taking him away to an official Finnish government owned facility. Never having seen or heard from his mother again.

Markus would spend his late childhood and all of his teen-hood working for the Finnish government as an asset to them. From the moment he was brought there until his late teens he would be trained as an agent of espionage.

At first Markus would try to escape and refuse to cooperate in anything they were attempting to make him do.. but as time went on they learned it was better to gaslight him now while he’s young and dumb and still is unpracticed with his abilities than later when it would be perhaps too late. Take control of him now and make great use of him later, basically. Though Markus was able to see what they’d planned before, he could not now. At least, not yet. His mind was weak and clouded. There was too much going on and all he wanted to do was make it go away, so he was willing to listen to anyone in hopes they would help him and in hopes that if he obeyed their orders that he would get to go back home to see his momma again. All he wanted was to be back home.. but sooner or later those feeling would be practically beat out of him. Not completely, but he learned that he would not make it here if he was to keep wishing and praying for his return home. Instead he learned to just do as he was told and practice what they were teaching him. Whether it be for combat or for interrogation. He would be ready to do as he was told.

The organization started having him thinking this way at a young age. They didn’t want him feeling like he would be able to make it out on his own and that this was his destiny if not his soul purpose to be alive. Him, a mutant, should be considered lower than everyone else and should do what he’s told. That way he can live a somewhat decent life alive. Markus would obey everything he was ordered and told to do. He didn’t want to fail them and he didn’t want to bring anyone anymore harm. He also didn’t want to be alone. He figured if he failed them then he would be casted out onto the streets he was told that would eat him up alive and that he wouldn’t make it out on his own. Even if he could, he still wouldn’t want to be alone. Sure, these people weren’t nice to him but they were company.. something he could be somewhat close to even if they tortured him.

Markus would have a tracker placed in the back of his neck where his shoulders meet so that way they would never lose track of their “asset.” He never tried to take it out as he grew older. All he tried to do was become better and better at his job. They would punish him if he wasn’t. Whether it be with power draining collars that brought him great pain or just where he was beaten until he learned his lesson. Whatever may be… He wanted no part of it.

As time went on for Markus and as he did his job studying and pretending to be all of these different people. It would take a toll on him. He never complained. All he would try to do is tell himself he was wrong for feeling this way and tried to practice getting over it, but it was hard for him. He had to learn about and live all of these lives that weren’t his and be around bad and dangerous people in order to learn and get information out of them all while completely losing his sense of who he really was. So many memories that weren’t his that he had to live in order to become that person so he would understand how they act, talk, and just are overall.. it was draining and tiring on his young mind. He pushed through it everyday but it was hard for him. He didn’t want to be all of these bad people or even pretend to be some of the good people. He just wanted to be himself but his job wasn’t in need of someone who was just “himself.” They needed the guy who could be anyone and act as anyone in order to get what the government wanted. He never hardly got to be a kid or a teen, let alone himself. It was hard for him to who he truly was even with his strong memory.

Something that was also painful for him was the fact that when he studied and read the minds of those he was needing to be for his missions, he would have to relive all of their memories and they, to him, felt as real as real life. Any emotions they felt at the time, he felt. It was horrifying, traumatizing even.. and he couldn’t do anything about it— and it hurt him to see why some of the bad people he was dealing with became the way they were. Some were just treated so horribly they felt that this was the only way for them. Despite them being a horrible person, he couldn’t help but feel pity and remorse. This ate at him everyday. They were just someone who had a bad life and were brought to this kind of life as a result of thinking that it was the only way for them. Now some, didn’t grow up like that and were truly evil— but even then he still pitied them because why? Why did they turn out that way? Why are they not someone who could be helped? Why were they someone he could not save?

All of his questions would go unanswered. It was agonizing and overwhelming. All he wanted to do was to help everyone but it wasn’t his job to help everyone. It was his job to help those who he was instructed to help and get out successfully.

The rest of his teen-hood would be the same agonizing thoughts and feelings everyday. He would do his job and do what needed to be done for the “greater good,” but it still was something he would have to do by not being himself and living as all these other people instead of who he really was.

Occasionally, when he was given the chance, he would break his code of conduct to help people in need outside of his jurisdiction with the spare time he had in missions or if he was just off duty in general. It made him feel a little bit better amidst all the terrible feelings he’d had to experience before. Markus would be keen on spending his spare time as different animals as well out in the wild. At this point, he’d proven he wasn’t going to run away and the people in charge of him knew he wouldn’t either. With this, he would even pick up sort of a second job. He was never hired but he would help workers out at the nearby hospice center when given the chance and listen in on patients there who were close to ing. After hearing enough information and studying them, he would give them their final resting moment of peace by turning into a loved one that was no longer with them, a loved one that was either unable to visit or wouldn’t, or he would turn into an animal that brought them good memories. All in hopes to help bring the dying patients more peace and happiness in their final moments. Markus would also just been keen on helping anyone out that he could. Whether if they needed someone to talk to or not, he was there for them and he also would try to help them out to the best of his ability, even if they didn’t respect him for being only just a mutant in their eyes as if he was a lower life form.

Once Markus had reached his 20s nothing much would have or had changed for him. He was still living the same old shitty lifestyle as he’d been living for the past 11 years. He would have gained more experience and wisdom through the lives he’d lived or took after, having studied the lives of each individual he’d become, and using that to his advantage to become better knowledgeable over time for anything in life. He’d acquired a many skills over the long majority of his time there. Taking those skills and using them in the best ability possible to achieve his goals and furthermore use them to make sure that he could help those out around him in the best possible way.

As he grew older though, he would begin to think more about how tired he was of being everyone else but himself. It was bringing him great pain to live as so many lives to the point where he could hardly keep track of what was his own. Markus would begin to start to question as to why he was being treated in such a way. For the longest time he had figured that this was just his purpose and that he didn’t deserve any better than what he was given. He thought before that how he was treated was okay.. but now he was starting to think that it wasn’t— and that it wasn’t fair for him to be living this way when he sees all these other people being able to live their lives no matter if it was happily or not. They still got to live as their own self instead of having to be forced to be many people they were not. They also were not looked upon as if they were lower than anyone else and treated with more kindness. Why was he so different all because he was a mutant? The few mutants he had came across were either just like him in the same workforce or were free to live as normal people outside of his job. He didn’t understand why he had been forced to do what it is that he does now even though in hindsight it was rather obvious. He tried to see the best in everyone though rather than think that their intentions were evil. He knew he could see into people’s minds but he did not enjoy purposefully reading them all the time, if at all. When he does, it’s either because he’s forced to or he wants to try and make people happy. Not because he intends to use it for an evil purpose. He wasn’t like that nor wanted to be.

After a couple more years of his 20s he would continue to grow more conscious of his situation and yearn to no longer be put in the circumstances that he was in. He didn’t want to work for the government anymore and do their biddings even if it was overall to help with the “greater good” as they so called it. His thoughts would only eat more and more at him as he went on. His anxiety would become more apparent throughout his latest missions and jobs. His mind became foggier and more clouded as he tried to keep focus on what was the task at hand. Markus was becoming too overwhelmed for what jobs he needed to be doing.

Once Markus had turned 24, he was given information about his mother. His mother.. he couldn’t believe it. After all this time of not knowing what had become of her, he was being given the chance to see his mother again. He didn’t know why at the time but he didn’t care. This would be the first time he would have gotten the freedom to go out somewhere and visit someone that was especially so close to him. Unfortunately, the more he learned about his mother, he had found out that she had been staying in a hospital for a while.

He would go to visit her with the approval from his higher ups. He couldn’t wait to see her but was ultimately more worried about whether or not she was okay. Once Markus had arrived to the hospital and was shown to her room, the sight of her was enough to make him collapse. Not just because of how much he missed her but because of how disheveled and sickly she had become from the last he had ed her looking. He was told that she had had Dementia for the past two years.. maybe even starting earlier than that but was strongly affecting her now in such a short time frame. He couldn’t help but weep in front of her, which made his mother very confused and almost agitated. Markus would try to calm down, wiping his tears away as he asked her if she could him. She had responded no and that he was not her Markus. He pleaded with her to him but she only became more upset. Not only at the fact that this stranger was claiming to be her Markus but that all her mind was forcing for her to was that he was still a little boy to her and that she had never found him. It was bringing her great pain.

Markus would leave her, heartbroken at what had become of her and at the thought that she couldn’t recognize him.. but then he got to thinking. With the time he was given, he would learn and search deep into his memory about where he used to live. Once he could , he would visit his old home- which was now abandoned but it was left almost just how he left it with a few subtle changes. The house was worn and the inside was covered with dust. Nobody was left to take care of the house and it made him sad.. but he was there for a reason. He would adventure into his room, taking some of what he figured use to be his clothes and even grabbing an old stuffed white bear of his to bring back with him.. he noticed on his way back into the living room though that there was an urn set on the fireplace. It was his dog’s urn. When he read it, he was confused as to why it stated that his dog had died on the same day he was taken. He would take the small urn with him and try not to think about too much.

With what Markus now had, he hoped he could bring his mother’s memory back.. or if not memory then at least the realization and happiness from his mother that it was him, her little boy. He was no longer lost and she had found him.

Markus would visit his mother shifted into the form of his younger 9 year old self in the clothes that his mother use to dress him in. When he’d entered the room, he would wait for her to look at and analyze him before saying “Äiti, minä tässä. Se on Markus.” / “Momma, it’s me. It’s Markus.” It worked. She had recognized him and replied with “Markus? Kultaseni... kuinka olenkaan kaivannut sinua niin paljon.” / “Markus? My baby… oh how I’ve missed you so much.” The two of them would hug each-other and sob in one another’s arms. The two of them having the first time in a while of having felt happiness in their life.

Markus would continue to visit his mother as his younger self, making sure to always bring her joy each day for as long as he could. Though, he would not be able to catch up much with how little she ed or cared to share, it still felt to him as if they had never left each-other. He had missed her so much that it wouldn’t matter if she wasn’t even talking to him, just her presence made him happy and made what all those terrible years brought to him feel as if they had faded away. That was until his mother had gotten so sick that it was hurting her just to stay alive. Markus knew she couldn’t live like this for much longer but that wouldn’t change the pain he would feel for having to let go of her after such little time.. and after having been separated from each other for so long. It was like some sort of sick cruel joke. He would try to hide his pain from his mother though, not wanting to bring her any more discomfort. ——— It would be late at night when her time had came. Markus knew it was coming and all his mother wanted from him was to hold him, so he would do just that for her. He would lay in her arms, hugging her gently as she held onto him and would on. Tears running down his little cheeks as he watched his mother’s life slip away from him all while she had a smile on her face, knowing that she had found what once was lost. Her baby.

After being given such little time with his mother, Markus would grow cold as he returned back to his life that once was. All he could feel but was numb for the next few years.

Going on with his life and his job, he was now 27. At this point, Markus had grown beyond tired of his work. All he felt was anxiety and the unbearable overwhelming stress that he was going through on a day to day basis. One day he was assigned on a mission to get information on a specific mutant individual that just so happened to be related to Thomas Walker/Necrotic. The individual he was to get information on was apart of a large criminal organization that was known for various crimes such as weapon smuggling/dealing, human trafficking, drug dealing, and many other horrible crimes. The individual at hand would just so happen to be Thomas Walker’s father who was a mutant of which was blind but had the ability to shift particles in any space. While Markus was to build information and knowledge while being posted inside of the criminal organization’s headquarters/base he would get closer and closer to Thomas’s father who just so happened to run the whole show.. and during that process Markus would also happen to get closer to Thomas. He couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the kid and even some guilt, not being able to warn him about any of the people here— especially about his father. Markus had been on this mission for a couple of months already but the more he stayed, the more overwhelmed he was becoming. He just couldn’t take it anymore.. not only was he tired of living this life but to not be able to warn someone he was starting to care about was killing him. His cover was becoming harder and harder to hold and he knew Thomas’s dad was catching onto him, regardless of being blind.

After some time, Markus would notice that Thomas was no longer coming around anymore. It had only been a month of him visiting but for some reason Markus was missing him. He would have to move on from that and focus on his task at hand though. He just found it hard to. Each day he found it only more harder and difficult to keep focused and stay calm, some days he was even close to breaking his cover— and with this, Thomas’s dad was catching on that there was just something quite not right with one of his supposed “guards.”

Then it happened. One day Markus just couldn’t hold himself together anymore, he’d became overwhelmed while Thomas’s dad had sent someone to question him and then even have the man himself begin to question him. It was all too much for him and he just couldn’t keep up the act anymore. His cover was broken and he had returned back into his normal form and out of his shift. It was over for him, he knew he couldn’t do it anymore. That was until, Thomas’s father would start using his abilities to practically torture him, shifting Markus’s particles in unnatural ways.. ways that hurt him beyond recognition. Markus’s mind was racing and going out of control. He did not like to feel this pain and he just couldn’t take it anymore after so many years of torturous living. He. could. not. take. it. His mind screamed at him and all he could hear was ringing in his ears and the sound of his own heartbeat as he lost all control. He would begin to shift rapidly into all the people he’d ever turned into before, even animals. His skin contorted and his flesh stretched in unnatural ways as his body tried to fight back the pain but could only react horrifically. His mind was being pushed to the limits until nothing was left anymore. Markus had blacked out but while he was unconscious his brain had sent out a wide orbital radius of what brought everyone near him to the ground as he had made them completely brain dead. Leaving nothing but empty shells of the human beings they once were left lying around everywhere. (haha, get lobotomized nerds. 🤓)

Markus would later wake up in horror of what he’d done as alarms blared around him. It was all still too much for him with so much going on. He had to get out. He had to escape. ——While escaping, Markus was left unable to shift for the time being due to him being left so drained and shaken up. He just couldn’t focus enough to take on his ability to shapeshift. It would take what felt like hours to Markus but merely only minutes for him to escape the base as his body was grazed by bullets and his fists were met with flesh. Fighting his way out until he were to be free.

After Markus had fled the mission he would also flee from his captors. Using a knife to cut open the back of his neck and remove the tracker that had been placed in him at such a young age, even though he did not want to feel anymore pain. He knew it had to be done in order to finally escape.

With the knowledge that Markus had gained over the years he would know just the guys that could help him flee the country, taking what little he had with him to the US after a couple of weeks of hiding.

Markus would make home in Montana. He had been given plenty of enough money to start a new life thanks to his connections but he was not going to use his money in extravagant ways so that he would not bring any attention to himself even though he had made it to America without any problems or suspicion. Markus would try and learn how to live a normal life in Montana. He was not too fond of shifting into other people anymore, he would shift more so into animals which he would actually spend most of his time as— wanting to spend more time with the nature around him that would bring him comfort and peace. That wasn’t to say he didn’t live any more of his days as just himself though. He would do regular jobs that consisted of helping people like volunteer work or charity work until he would find himself aiming towards wanting to be a nurse. Due to his vast knowledge and having lived as nurse for one of his past missions he was already ready to do the job.

Time would go on and Markus would continue to try and live his life more peacefully. Though, upon one hot and dry summer day of his new life in Montana, as he was running freely as an elk in the woods, Markus would come across smoke of which lead him to a forest engulfed into flames. This would bring him to a panic as he realized there was still wildlife trapped within the engulfed fiery trees. Markus would do his best to help and free the animals in the woods from danger, even having himself grace the flames. As much as it hurt him he didn’t want to back down until he could do all that he could— but in doing so he would catch himself surrounded by fire from every which way. Trapping him and removing his ability to breathe as the smoke filled his lungs. Luckily for Markus, there had been a community near to his location. Not just any community either; it was a mutant community. The mutants from the community as well as firefighters would help put out the flames to the best of their ability. Markus just so happened to be found while they were doing so. He was later brought back to the community so that he could be taken care of, heal, and recover for as long as he needed to. After having recovered, Markus would learn more about the mutant community and even learn that Thomas was living amongst them. He would not go out of his way to seek Thomas but sooner or later fate would bring them together, leading them to become closer over time and develop a brotherly bond between one another. Markus was able to be at peace as long as Thomas was by his side and knew that he was okay.
