Description

So after a while, I finally got around to updating an old and important character to Amelia, Chris Beaugard, with a pretty decent sized story to link up his past to the present and how he came to find Amelia again.

*EDIT* fixed some errors in the story but now it should be fine. ^^

After losing Amelia in the aftermath of the uprising, He became despaired as he thought he had lost his one true friend. But when a search team had been created by the new government after a month had passed, he volunteered immediately as he saw a chance to find her again, even if it was a slim chance. After receiving training and being sent on the first deployment, he was enthusiastic at the prospect of finding Amelia; But after three years of slugging through ruins of towns and the waste of lives they had to clean up, He became more despondent at any slim chance of finding any life. On his 17th deployment however, he found a baby in a rubble, orphaned with her dead mother next to her. Feeling pity and something of a connection to the baby he took her under his wings and adopted her, naming her Evelyn.

After seeing so much death and destruction, he quit the search teams and took up to police training; and after 5 years, (2 of which he was an officer) he became a new detective at the age of 28.

After serving 7 years as a detective, and seeing corruption seeping into the police, he became one of the last few honest cops left in his district among corrupt government law enforcement. At 35 years old he became hardened by the world, but was still a caring and devoted father to Evelyn, and as he watched her grow he felt she deserved better than this city, but he also felt he had a duty to serve justice, despite a life stuck in a corrupt world.

His life would change however when he was assigned to investigate an incident, in which a government sanctioned laboratory had been outright destroyed just outside the city limits. From his investigation there were no apparent suspect as almost everyone that had been listed as present in the laboratory that time had been mercilessly slaughtered except for one, a scientist who claimed to have been spared by whatever caused the accident. Many of the officers present dismissed it as just being lucky and delusional, Chris however thought otherwise and believed that there was a reason.

After questioning the survivor about what happened, given a vague but apparently traumatic account, he was approached by strange men in suits claiming to be government official, after authentication, they tasked Chris to searching for the thing that had created the accident after taking the survivor away. Chris took it up cautiously as he felt it odd that these government officials would advocated a single person on his sole vague account as if they already knew what he was talking about.

After collecting whatever data that had survived the destruction, he postulated a possible escape of an experiment gone wrong that is considered hyper-lethal and a potentially unstable weapon, As well as a serious threat to the city. He searched any potential hiding spots; warehouses, storage facilities, factories, anywhere. He mostly did the investigations by himself as he didn't trust many of the other detectives, and because he had his own source of trusted information. But after a week, he was still stuck on square one, as he was confounded as to how an unstable tool of destruction could stay hidden for so long and felt it might be impossible. But unbeknownst to him he would find it unexpectedly.

After picking up his daughter Evelyn (now 12 years old), she wanted him to meet a "friend" of her, someone she met just the day before while walking home. After he asked if it was a schoolmate, she claimed that the friend wasn't from school. curious about her new friend he drove her as per her direction to an abandoned warehouse. Cautious and now a bit worried, he readied his gun despite her protest and stepped in before her into the warehouse. As they looked around, he saw old technology abundant on the huge shelves; but as he got further in, he felt a presence inside the building, and as he turned around, he saw a massive looming figure above him. In shock and realizing it's the weapon he had been looking for, he told Evelyn to run as he aimed at the shadow, but in an instant he felt his gun slip from his hand as the figure tackled him to the ground. As the figure loomed closer, it stopped when it heard Evelyn. Chris was shocked as it loosened it's grip on him, but as it looked back to Chris' face, it's blue eyes widen in shock and confusion as it backed off in fear and trembled. Chris now more curious than fearful tried to get a better look at the figures' face, but then became shocked and paralyzed as he came to a realization as everything came together. The weapon he had been searching for, His daughter's newfound friend, his childhood friend lost for more than 15 years, and the dark figure were one and the same, his childhood friend Amelia.

So that's his part of the story. Hope you like it. ^^
