The ████████████████ and the ████████████████ kept their eyes on him as a potential prodigy to bring into their folds.


In adolescence and his teenage years he continued to show heightened intellectual capacity and ████████████████████████ leading to ████████████████████████. Even with eyes on him John found time to be the teen, to some point. He developed a love for (British) Punk Rock music and would sneak out to the clubs when he could. Despite having a slight bit of rebellion in him his parents kept him under tight-fisted discipline. Graduating with Summa Cum Laude, he moved on to attend Oxford, then Yale. His studies focused on law, where he graduated with Summa Cum Laude from both. At the same time he began the process of ████████████████████████ for ██████████████. He also was contacted by ███████████████████.


This began the process of his training with █████████████████████████ ███████████████████████ to ██████████████████████████ ██████████████████████ and ████████████████████████. He showed to be highly ████████ and ██████████ with skills at ████████. However, after a time he became ████████████ ███████████████ █████████████████████ and ██████████████████ had to ███████████████████ his records and ███████████████ immediately.


At that point ███████████████████ stepped in to claim him as an asset. However, ████████████████████████████ ████████████████████. When ███████████ and ████████████ caught wind of this they actively started to work against ██████████████████████. John was strongly encouraged by them to do the same. ██████████ ████████████████ ██████████████ ██████████████ ██████████████ █████████████████████████ ███████████████████ █████████████████████ █████████. ██████████████████████ ███████ ███████████████████.This lead to ██████████████████████ ██████████ and ████████████████████████████ █████████████████ resulting in the death of his father.


███████████████████████████████████████████████████ ████████████████████████. ███████████████ █████████████████████████████████████████ █████████████████████ █████████████ ██████████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████.███████████████ ███████████████████████████████████████.████████████████ ██████████████████████████ ██████████████████ ███████████ ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████. ████████████████████ ████████████████████████████████████████ ███████████████.███████████████ █████████████ ██████████████.██████████████████████ ███████████.


With his father’s death John realized that ████████████████████ needed to be shut down. He vowed revenge on ██████████████████ and ███████████████████that had killed his father. Over time he ███████████████ ███████████████████████████ █████████████████████████████████ ████████████ and ███████████████████████████████████████████ ████████████████. With ████████████████ at his heels he hid is mother in plain sight. ██████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████████ █████████████████ ████████████████████████ █████████████████████████████ ██████████████████████████████████ ███████████████. These actions eventually lead him to Lorna Fox. He planned to ███████████████████ █████████████████████ in order to ████████████████, falling in love was never part of the plan, but ███████████████████████████████ and she won him over.

CmCOMMENTS copy.png


"I've never met anyone that I seemed to align with so well. No matter what subject I want to talk about, John can pick up and have a engaging conversation. In some ways he's been a dream come true. We seem to click. Our souls resonate in harmony and he makes me feel balanced. However, I have started to see some very dark aspects of him lately. In someways he terrifies me. We will see which note our romance ends on: Dream or Nightmare." ~ Lorna Fox
