## History

### **Pre-2059: The Superhero Revolution**

Jonathan B. Morgan born in Los Angeles City, California in the year 2035, raised by two loving parents Jonathan and Jasmine Morgan. While Bruce was still a child, Jonathan was still the Head-CEO of Morgan Industries and one of the most powerful and dangerous men in the world. Due to this, he helped stir unwanted and dangerous eyes to his exceptional progress. His father grew weary of their safety, so they moved to New Evo City. Meanwhile, Jonathan made a deal with a secret organization of assassins, called The Brotherhood, to ensure he was under the radar. Thus when Bruce was of age, he would inherit ownership over the family business. Long before, Bruce demonstrated a keen intelligence of a genius, excelling at school and being on the top of his class, while also building singlehandedly a small boat engine for a small wooden boat. At the age of fourteen, he went to New Evo City's High School, and at sixteen he showed great interest in basketball, becoming a key team player in their upcoming tournaments.

That being said, a lot of wins requested a party celebration, and since his father was filthy rich, he had the money. And throughout those endeavors, he became somewhat of a playboy. With his many expeditions outside of the country, upon climbing a mountain in the Carpathians, he found a nest with one baby eagle waiting for its mother. She never came, unfortunately, so he simply adopted it as his own pet. Naming it Hope. The eagle demonstrated extreme intelligence, which made him put into questioning, whether she was a normal bird or not. Now and then, he taught her to perform complicated tasks, as well as, teaching her how to understand words and writing a few. She was also a talented hunter, thus he let her on small hunting expeditions and she'd return to him with the prey she had.

At the age of twenty-one, Bruce Morgan graduated with the highest degrees and honors at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or better known as MIT, which is a private research university specialized in applied science and engineering. In truth, he was more than ready to inherit the mantle of CEO of Morgan Industries, which he soon did achieve but the truth came out sooner rather than later.

He discovered the reason why his family was so well protected. Because his father initially making a deal with a hidden organization called The Brotherhood. Upon discovering the truth, The Brotherhood had taken a very acute interest in him, even as far as to call them, very intrigued by his intellect. To furthermore secure their protection, he took it upon himself to become one of The Brotherhood's Assassins or Hitmen, by modern standards.

Bruce Morgan would prove his worth to The Brotherhood by completing several tests which one of which included the memorization and understanding of The Creed of The Brotherhood, which was the sacramental importance of his test. Often at times, he was asked to speak it aloud.

"*We are the Shepherds that lead Society from the Shadows for a Better Tomorrow. For in the Shadows we are Formless, a figment of imagination that will forever be Timeless. We stand at the Edge of Life and proudly say; for we have become Legend.”*  — The Creed

With the success of his training, he was taken under the apprenticeship wing of Antipatros Nasir Alhikma, The Grandmaster of The Brotherhood of America. Admittedly at first, The Grandmaster wasn't too fond of Bruce as he started to train him. Even so, upon the thick layers of arrogance and coldness, there was a golden heart hiding in plain sight, thus he believed that Bruce was more than he led on to be. Antipatros would train Bruce to the best of his ability, teaching him everything he knew about being an Assassin.

Through Bruce's intellect and impressive combat knowledge and understanding. He mastered every known martial art, from unarmed and armed fighting styles, known to man. The first martial arts that he mostly specialized in were: Boxing, Muay Thai, Krav Maga, Capoeira, Brazillian Jujitsu, Taekwondo, Wing Chun, Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Karate, and furthermore martial arts throughout his Assassin career.

Now, Bruce was living the life of a billionaire young adult as well as an infamous hitman. One day he was invited to participate in a huge party that took place in New Evo City. Seeing this as an opportunity to get out and socialize, he made sure to be there when the time arrived. Upon entering the party, it didn't take long to find himself attractive to yet another woman, which later down the line would change his fate forever. Her name was Amara Reacher, elegantly dressed, she welcomed him on a dance with her. And he happily obliged. It would have been the first time where Bruce found an intellectually gifted person as he was.

And so, their relationship blossomed and for a period of time, Bruce Morgan was dating Amara Reacher. With two years of love and carrying under each other's belt, their romantic and stable relationship would move toward its next step, which would result in them marrying and finally have a family. Bruce still bewildered by such events that had transpired so fast, was about to settle down until he discovered a bitter truth about her. That she had a brother, Jack Reacher who was a Super Soldier and went by the codename of Black Hood.

Bruce and Amara had a long discussion about it, while he tried to reason with her that her brother's actions can be catastrophic, while she kept on insisting that it can be dangerous for him and that she didn't want to lose him because of her brother. Eventually, they would come to an agreement and their discussion ended, while he would have left Black Hood alone, on a night, the Master Assassin of America, called Aristaios, contacted Bruce and let him knew of the threat named Black Hood. Aristaios told him it would be in their best interest if he'd go all the way to San Diego and protect the President because Black Hood was tasked to assassinate him. He accepted the task, but he failed to notice that Amara was also listening, so as Bruce made his way to his private plane, she stealthily followed him and had no problem doing so because of her military experience. Bruce would arrive a bit too late as he entered the building where the President was held and he found Black Hood ready to kill him but he stepped in quickly and saved the President, after a heated battle he manages to escort the President out of harm's way, and continued his fight against Black Hood. But this battle was difficult and challenging for Bruce, noticing that Black Hood was ferocious and vicious with his fighting style and overwhelmed him quickly and knocked him down on the ground, walking towards him ready to end his life but Amara was quick and instead of Bruce, she took the hit and Black Hood impaled his sister.

Bruce only felt anger and rage as he held Amara's dying body in his hands, and she eventually died in his arms. Both Bruce and Black Hood were enraged at each other, and they fought one last battle which eventually lead to Black Hood's loss. But Bruce didn't stop there, and he trapped Black Hood in his nanotech suit, which caused him tremendous pain but didn't kill him. As Bruce stated, "*Your suit is a living hell, and you live in it for the rest of your life."* Two years had passed, and Amara was buried and given the proper funeral Bruce thought she deserved. Her death led Bruce into a depression, but his mentor explained to him that depression would only deteriorate and eventually kill him, so he tried to get over it and continued his training, striving to become the best fighter in the world. After six months of training and living his life the best way he could, he saw on the news that his Mother and Father had died in a car crash. At the time, the authorities didn't know the cause of their deaths and simply stated that it was a car accident. After losing his future wife, and now, mother and father, Bruce were at his lowest, and now his goals meant nothing to him and eventually, he became even more of an arrogant douchebag with the money and girls, to somehow fill his empty spot.

## 2059: The Superhero Revolution

Bruce continued to live the way he wanted to live, until one day he went on a patrol across the alleyway for criminals to fight. He met a man named Richard Servastus, that encounter was short-lived. Because of the time-traveling Mark Mcneil and his friends led a massive brawl with an alien robot toward them. When the dust settled and the battle was over, Bruce searched for survivors, until he stumbled upon a lying unconscious girl on the ground. Little did he know that she would end up changing his entire life and because of his nature, one could say he fell in *love* with her at first sight. Which made him take her with him to his base, shortly after, she was placed inside a tank that healed her. When she woke up, she made herself acquainted with him, although being a little reluctant to approach him. Though it took only a few days for her to warm up with him, while he tried his best to make her comfortable, she was still hesitant. He first talked with her, and then about himself and his pet eagle Hope. Bruce also told her that if she didn't have a place to stay, she was more than welcomed to live in his house, to which she was surprised to hear. She accepted the offer, and after that, he expressed his feelings towards her. After some awkward exchanges, Katrina went to sleep for a few hours, as did Bruce.
The next day, they met the park because Katrina was there. Bruce suggested getting her some new clothes and she agreed to do so. As she got herself a pair set of new clothes they walked home and after trying some new clothes Bruce asked her if she wanted to go out on a date night with him, to which, Katrina said yes, thinking it would be for once good to go out.

On their date, they got to know each other a bit better and to also learn that they weren't as different as they individually thought, their date continued and they also had a meal to go with it. It was an enjoyable night for them while they also had the thought about Valentine's Day being around the corner. While Katrina was off to do some errands for her present for Bruce, he would receive a message sent to him by his Mentor Antipatros which revealed that Black Hood was back and wanted to end this, so Bruce goes to that location and fights off with him but it would appear he was loosing but thanks to Mark intervening, he would live to fight another day. He would invite Antipatros to say in his home till everything was settled, while they had their interactions, Bruce would then buy a necklace for Katrina which also had precious stones embedded into it. Valentine's Day arrived and Katrina and Bruce would gift each other their gifts, at Bruce's request they would also have a dance while a Song from the1954s called, Earth Angel by the Penguins. Bruce expressed his undying love for her and eventually they would kiss, becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.

Time would pass as they would experience events, such as, Bruce and Katrina officially having their first fight because Bruce after a mission got drunk and smoked as she also got kidnapped by Black Hood alongside his trustworthy Mentor Antipatros, which in the end only one could survive as Black Hood put it and so Bruce makes the hard choice and saves Katrina instead of his Mentor and on that die, unfortunately, Antipatros would die. While he experienced tremendous grief and pain because of his Mentor's death but Katrina would be there for him and to comfort him. Though his death was quite painful, he would also leave a letter for Bruce which wrote.

> *"Dear Bruce, I don't know when you are going to find this letter nor what will happen after you'll read it, but whatever happens.*
>
>

> *I need you to know that I was already dying for quite some time, I chose to hide it away from you since it would only bring pain and suffering and you have quite expereicned enough.*

> *Like when I was a young man, I kne I had liberty, but I did not see it. I knew I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it.*

It would take a bit of time for Bruce to fully get over his death. By then, he and Katrina already had made plans for their future, to actually marry and hopefully start a family. But that would've had to wait because Karson, Katrina's father appeared one day at his house and demanded Bruce to hand over Katrina and well he did not take it so kindly. Bruce beat Karson in his normal form but one day Karson hired a bounty hunter by the name of GrimBlade to capture Katrina and he would succeed but Bruce was quick and tracked down the bounty hunter, after a heated battle between Karson and Bruce, Black Hood and GrimBlade would appear because GrimBlade convinced Black Hood into joining the fight for in his view, he was was the to slay Bruce. The battle ended into Karson retreating and in GrimBlade giving Bruce and Katrina enough time to escape, while arriving home he would talk to Katrina about his inability to keep her safe and that her dad is powerful and he didn't stand a chance against him back there. Of course, Katrina was there for him to support him morally, telling him that he is enough for her and that he shouldn't doubt himself, even if he is a human. Bruce took her words to heart and tried to be the best he could be, first by promising to protect Katrina from her aggressive Father and have a family with her.

After Katrina defeats her Father by killing him Bruce would almost die in that attempt as he let himself get hit by Karson so that he would be open for an attack. Katrina did not take it lightly as she was afraid of what would have been if he died because he was almost killed but Bruce admits his mistake to her as he only wanted the best for her, it would be by then as his selfish persona would turn into a much more selfless man. Eventually, they would marry just like Katrina wanted and Bruce's Family and Katrina's Aunt, Uncle and best friend Catherine would show up for the wedding. After a long party everyone would go back to their home, including Bruce and Katrina after a long day, they rested and would want to have a family but Black Hood, his archenemy, wouldn't allow it for he had other plans.

Black Hood would do a final broadcast, demanding for Bruce to get out of his cowering hole and finish what he has started a few years ago. Bruce would have wanted to go alone but Katrina still insisted she should come with, after a discussion Bruce allowed her to come even though he feared she would get hurt. Bruce and Katrina would meet Black Hood on the street where Amara, Black Hood's sister has died, the place would bring him emotional feelings of the past which he did not lightly shake away. Bruce and Katrina would fight against Black Hood by themselves but they soon realized he was more capable to defeat them both. Luckily for the two Catherine and Runa would join in the fight to even the odds out. Though the odds were even it did nothing but prolong the battle as Nexus would get involved by the behalf of Black Hood, Catherine, and Runa against Nexus while Bruce and an injured Katrina would battle against Black Hood once and for all. The battle would finally end when Bruce manages to outsmart and outmaneuver Black Hood and throw him off the ledge of the building only to get him up with a grappling hook only to hear his last words that everyone can break. Bruce would have a hard time to end Black Hood but eventually, he does so and cuts the rope and Black Hood falls to his demise in a room with a bunch of explosives, exploding and killing him. Though he survives, Bruce didn't know at the time, he takes Katrina to safety and deals with a corrupted Jordan. Having no choice but to kill him and take the nuke detonator by force Bruce would become a target for the police and hunt him down, thankfully for GrimBlade appears and helps Bruce escape them.

Bruce and Katrina were finally free from Black Hood, and now there was only one goal left to achieve and that was to start a family.
After a few days, Bruce would find out in his basement in a secret room that Antipators had a plan called "The League Initiative". He took a great interest in the Initiative, and his future teammates, among which were Spider-Man, Catherine, Mark, and others. But the plan was not set in stone and remained up in the air.
By then, Mark would invite both Katrina and Bruce into Richard's Mansion, and throw a party with all the city's heroes to celebrate their victories.

At the party, Mark pulled Bruce aside and delivered some chilling news:
While Mark was dead, he had horrifying visions of monstrous aliens attacking Earth and killing everyone. Bruce just dismissed it as being nothing more than a "nightmare", but nonetheless promised that he would take the information into consideration.
He left Mark by delivering an earpiece radio to him, saying that he "could use someone like him" on the team.

## 2059: The Invasion

Bruce and Katrina continued to live their lives as a loving married couple, as they have been in roamed around the world on their honeymoon until they got back after what seemed like an endless adventure. Their first morning would be a weird one, as they have been visited by a being called the Salesman who was at the time annoying for them till Bruce finally manages to kick him out of the house, they went about their daily routine, as the world was trying to recover from Black Hood's action and now his presumedly death. As the day passed, assuming their lives as superheroes were over, Katrina would tell him the big news that she was pregnant, she would be barring two twins which would be the future Logan and Sophia, though, she and Bruce didn't know at the time. He took the news in very well, too well, he was happier than Katrina was to finally be a parent, seeing this made Katrina even happier. As the days moved on, in one late midnight Bruce would have this sudden nightmare and vision of the world coming up to an end.

He would see that in front of him lay the future Majestic League 2, each member beaten to death and dying while others were already dead. He was the only one standing as he keeps walking through the pile of his dead hero friends. The one thing that shocked him the most was Katrina's dying body as she looks up at him and tells him. *"You could have done more to save us, why didn't you?"* Bruce would go then to be from shocked to scared half to death as he then sees a portal with massive alien spaceships ready to invade earth while under the ruling and command by none other than Bruce's counterpart, Taghiat Quasia. Who would be his dreadful nightmare and push him to his limits and resources. He wakes up with a rather loud scream as he also woke up Katrina, she didn't know what happened but she tried to comfort him and ask him what he saw. He explains it to her in great detail, still sweating and shaking up from what he just witnessed, he was trying to maintain his composure but failed and Katrina, in the end, would manage to bring him back to sleep. The next morning Bruce wouldn't feel so well and his wife would take care of him for the time being till he feels alright as he was still shaking up from what he witnessed. He continued on and on about it till Katrina herself would get a bit scared and from his words realized that it may be a real vision.

Bruce would then have a plan, to create a suit of armor who can protect him, his family, his teammates and earth from this threat. But he needed the arc reactor blueprints which were located at Morgan Industries, it was Jonathan's last work before he officially departed from the science division. He had a strong belief that the arc reactor technology is the key to the future and now in Bruce's mind it may actually be true. So he heads off to Morgan Industries and walks pass the security with no problem since he is the son of Jonathan Morgan. He finds the blueprints inside his dad's office and takes them with him. Back home he finds out there was a videotape his dad leftover for Bruce, he plays it.

> *"So, is the camera rolling?” Jonathan asked to which the camera responds with a thumbs up.*
>
>

> *“From all of us at the Technology Industries, I’d like to personally tell how much the Arc Reactor Program means to me and to us, I’ve spent years of research because we or I should I say, believe that everything is achievable through technology,” Jonathan said.*
>
>

> *As Bruce listened he searched through his Dad’s notebook about his schematics, plans, things he has learned, very complex equations and other scientifical bits of advice.*
>
> He found something about the Arc Reactor and it looked like it had promising information about it but he never truly finished his work, but he laid the foundation of it, so Bruce could start from something.
>
>

> **The video was made in 2037, where Bruce was 5 years old and his dad and mom were 38-37.**
>
>

> *“Bruce. As of now, you’re too young to understand this, so I thought I’d put it on film for you. I built this for you, for our family, and for the future uses. And someday you’ll realize that it represents a whole lot more than just my inventions. It represents, for the most part, my life’s work. This is the key to the future. Unfortunately, I’m limited by the technology of my time, but I believe that one day you’ll figure this out. And when you do, you will change the world. What is and always will be the most thing I love most about than our family is you.”*

Now being motivated he gets onto perfecting his dad's creation and after some theorizing and creating a digital holographic display for it and setting the place so that the raw power source could create this new said element and after his second try. Bruce finally creates the new element and creates the Arc Reactor which was the latest version he made. It was a heart-shaped Arc Reactor that soon would be the power source of his suit of armor and a device to house the nano-particles which would comprise his said suit of armor. After some tinkering, his suit was complete all he needed now was test it. And unfortunately, he got the chance to do so by busting inside the building where all the villains came together to demonstrate their power. In doing so he found his old enemy was still alive and now much sane than he previously was. Going by the name of White Hood he would face off against Bruce posing as the Light Knight in his new dawning suit of armor. Unfortunately, White Hood got away and lived to fight another day, Bruce surprised by his armor's performance he would meet up with Spider-Man who also joined the fight a bit later.

Bruce became a sort of Mentor figure to Spider-Man teaching him how he should use his powers, he was proud of him but he never showed it because he wanted to wait for the right moment to show it to him. After the Villains coming together, it was that the Majestic League 2 would be formed, Bruce is one of their founding members and one of their leaders. Though mostly sticking to himself and his one goal which sometimes made him selfish at best was the safety of his family and himself, he also showed his gratitude to Spider-Man by making him a Majestic Leaguer. But that won't last forever as the Invasion came much faster than Bruce anticipated, thinking that this was it. Katrina would join in the battle with an armor suit Bruce made for her so that she would be protected when he wasn't around. The battle proved to be really hard to win to the point where there was no hope, but Bruce won't give up, right before his counterpart, the nemesis of his dreams appeared. Out of words, for him, it seemed he was the only one trying to put up a fight with Taighat though because of the others not getting a change of a one on one fight. His wishes, unfortunately, came true after Taighat made quick work of the Majestic League 2's heavy hitters. Now it was only Bruce and Taghiat. He would proceed to face him off but he heard a few words from the mad Taghiat, which struck a nerve.

> *"Bruce..." Taghiat snarled, turning to him.*
>
>

> *Bruce would blink behind his helmet, how did Taghiat know his name? he was confused and shocked at the same time. He takes a few moments before he responds. "... you know me?" he asked.*
> *"I know all things. I have observed everything in The Multiverse. One could even say that i'm 'cursed' with knowledge..." Taghiat responded.*
>
>

Their one on one dual was furious as they exchanged blow for blows. Seemingly Bruce won't give up, Taghiat would become much more frustrated with this. How could a human put so much of a fight when the other superpowered individuals trembled before him with a back slap of his hand? Nevertheless, Taghiat wouldn't go so down without a hard foughten fight. Bruce would give his all and make Taghiat bleed.

> *"All that for one piece of flesh..." He said, grinning as he stomped towards Bruce and grabbed his arm.*
>
>

A little achievement for Bruce because he found out that it wasn't even a fight, he was just holding Taghiat and prolong the inevitable. Taghiat would show no mercy to Bruce as he continued to bust, crack and destroy his armor wide open. Seeing that he was loosing he tried one last attempt to impale Taghiat but he broke his blade and stabbed Bruce back in the stomach, ending the fight as he looked up at him. He didn't realize how close he was to death right now and how recklessly he threw his family away without thought only to stop this enemy who he now feared who was just about mere seconds to kill him but didn't...

> *"You have my respect, Bruce. When I'm done, barely any life in the multiverse will still be alive. But I hope they remember you." Taghiat said, grinning.*
>
>

All of Bruce's efforts, to put a stop to the Invasion, to protect and save his family and in an attempt to defeat Taghiat earned him just respect those would be the last words he will hear from him as he sat there. Waiting for the inevitable, which was the decimation of the Multiverse, Bruce did not survive the Invasion.
