The year is 2006 and it's mid October. Three years ago, after a night at a bar with some college friends, Flynn leaves later than the rest of his group. He ends up walking back to the college campus, drunk and alone down the darkened streets. A group that seemed to be in their 30's and had about four people in it began trailing Flynn. Flynn passed by an alleyway and the group grabbed him, pushing him down the dark alley. It wasn't long before Flynn couldn't even keep away anymore and collapsed to the concrete. The next thing you know, he's in some building, tied down to a chair in the middle of a room with nobody to be found. He is bleeding from his nose and from cuts from the group. The lights were bright in the building. It seemed so weird. There were no windows, no tables, nothing. Only a door on the far side of the room and cameras in every corner. It didn't take long before someone dressed as a scientist or a doctor entered the room. Within five minutes, the man injected a sort of venom or a chemical into Flynn's arm. As the chemical began to spread, Flynn began feeling changes. His eyes were sensitive, he could hear the man's heart beating, he could smell cigarette smoke on the man's breath and the man didn't even speak. About a month passed before Flynn was released. Over than month, he was trained by a man called John. John was the closest thing to caring in that building. John trained Flynn to use his powers and abilities to their fullest. When Flynn was released, he kept this all a secret as to not worry his family. When he returned to his parents home, his mother was at the dining room table, struck with grief. She explained to him that his sister and brother in law were killed and his niece was sent to live with her aunt and uncle in Greenland. Five months ago, Flynn Helman's sister and brother in law were killed in the crossfire between a hero and a villain.
He, soon, had his own accident while on the job. Flynn was informed that he couldn't keep on the job with the injury. No matter how much he tried to fight against the decision, he soon agreed to hanging up his suit for a bit until he was fully healed. With the time he has, he decided to start on an art project; A large painting of the Roman god, Jupiter.
And this is where our story begins.

I'll be damned if I die on this. If it is, then so be it. I'd rather go out with a glass of wine and Exit Music(For A Film) by Radiohead than go out falling and busting my head open on this god forsaken hardwood. If Jupiter kills me, then he better pray I don't curse his name.
