Honolulu, Hawaii

6 June, 1948

It was a hot sunny day.

The sun was shining to its fullest and two men were walking through the streets of Honolulu. One of them was a younger man called Zack Sawyer. Can you recall a man who doesn't exactly know what he wants to achieve in his life and he's taking doubtful routes to seemingly feel happiness? Zack was one of those guys. With a thin figure, light blonde hair and a tall posture, Zack was always liked by everybody. No one was ever truly considered about his possible mental problems.

The other one was a man called Sebastian Frost. Sebastian was a much different case from Zack. Dark short black hair, a skinny figure and eyes which seemed to scream with evil. When Sebastian was around, everyone was terrified by his presence. He was well acknowledged about this fact. Even though it seemed like everyone was simply too terrified to even speak a word with him, Sebastian enjoyed how people perceived him surprisingly a lot.

As they were both walking, they were having a conversation. Sebastian started.

You are looking good, rookie. The brothers will be pleased to accept a new member with your potential.

Zack was not sure what to think about Sebastian's statement. As always, he started to look a bit insecure about himself.

Thanks, Sebastian. I suppose... I will fit in the group quite well.

Sebastian noticed Zack's insecurity.

What's the matter with you, rookie? Are you scared or what? Brothers won't like that. Keep your head up! Now!

Zack became a bit frightened.

Ok, I'll try to.

Trying is not enough. You have to do it. Do you understand, rookie?

Yes... I understand.

They both continued walking until they arrived to their destination. It was a small building which looked like a warehouse. When they entered the building, Sebastian stopped and warned Zack.

Listen, rookie. The brothers are not very kind to the rookies. They always want someone who can actually prove themselves and continue the brotherhood's legacy. I can't overemphasize this... I repeat, don't screw this up, rookie. Now, follow me, I'll lead you to them.

Sebastian and Zack went to a room which had a secret opening with a staircase and they both went downstairs. They appeared in a dark place with various
