**Midnight** is one of the antagonists-turned-main characters of Bonds: Retribution Prophecy. He is a current spy for The Alliance, and is simply known as **Brooklyn's Cat**.

## Appearance

Midnight is a 20 year old boy with short black hair and crimson red eyes. His hair is worn down, normally unkempt and covering his eyes. Midnight wears fingerless black gloves, an oversized black hoodie with cat ears, black ripped jeans and a pair of black running shoes. Under his hoodie, he wears a black tshirt. For accessory, Midnight wears silver cross.

## Personality

Midnight normally acts in a quiet, sleepy disposition, and is one of the less active characters unless it comes to missions or battles. Nonetheless, Midnight's physical ability has reached the peak of his kind- and so he doesn't see a need for training further. David states to Midnight that instead of sleeping or spending time with Ikon Hendrix, he should focus on finding a way into the SSS in order to avoid separation from his owner, Brooklyn McHugh. Though Midnight states that Brooklyn already prepared a herd of felines for him to sneak in with while being in his cat form. While the ravenette seems to be on the more lazy side of life, he does participate in training activities when he sees fit and can match a handful of his opponents in battle.

Midnight's replies are often paused, causing him to seem indifferent about most things despite that not necessarily being the case. Similar to Brooklyn and David, Midnight has developed the habit of seeming unfazed, even with egregious or shocking subjects. One of the former members in the Alliance, before their death, calls Midnight a "heartless unlucky kitten," emphasizing on his indifferent and lazy persona. While Midnight's expression didn't indicate he was bothered by this comment, he later talks to Brooklyn about this, crying on his/her shoulder for some time.

Midnight isn't as heartless as he portrays himself, and is one of the most sympathetic members of The Alliance, not being as heartless as the other members. An example of this is when one of his opponents were on their knees, sobbing and shaking, begging for him not to take their life. Midnight spares them, patting them on their head and turning into his cat form, falling asleep on them. Brooklyn states that Midnight's actions were foolish after saving him from his former opponent, who, attempted to stab Midnight while he laid on them.

Midnight appears to have Stockholm Syndrome via his former owner abusing him, and thus let's a select few touch him while in his cat form, even hissing and swatting at Lucas when he first tried touching him, though laying on Oliver's head somewhere at the beginning of chapter five, and Athena's head at the beginning of chapter six. Either of them considered Midnight's actions odd, though Oliver states that Midnight, or, as he calls him, "Bubblegum," must've been a special cat. Later on, Midnight reveals his true form to Athena with the permission of Brooklyn.

## History

Around the age of seventeen to eighteen, Midnight was sold to his former owner via being kidnapped and illegally trafficked, where he was beaten, tortured, locked up, and later left for dead out of a twisted form of hatred for Midnight's family. Due to this, Midnight has developed Stockholm Syndrome and PTSD. It is heavily implied that he believes being treated poorly is normal for those of his specie as he often degrades himself and other felines in a way that seems he believes they are less than most other species.

Shortly after his former owner abandoned him, Midnight was found and saved by his current owner, Brooklyn McHugh. Apart from these minor pieces of information, not much else has been revealed of Midnight's past.

## Powers And Abilities

* **Feline Physiology:** Midnight has the ability to mimic/transform into felines, from domesticated cats, wild cats to big cats.
* **Contaminant Immunity:** Midnight is immune to poisons, toxins, venoms, viruses, bacteria, parasites, pathogens, allergen, etc.
* **Camouflage:** Midnight can visually blend into surroundings by blending in with the coloration and form of their background to avoid optical perception.
* **Claw Retraction:** Midnight can project/retract razor-sharp claws/talons of energy, bone, metal, keratin, etc., from his fingertips.
* **Climbing:** Midnight is able to climb and otherwise move effortlessly and smoothly on angled and/or vertical surfaces, able to take advantage of any handholds they find, no matter how small, on trees, rocks, walls, etc.
* **Enhanced Agility:** Midnight is able to jump, run, climb, swing from things easily, effectively dodge attacks, do back-flips, leap across rooftops, athletic and martial implements with no effort much better than a typical earthling. His speed and agility is his main advantage. He can also block arrows in flight.
* **Enhanced Balance:** Midnight has both extremely well developed sense of balance, the positioning of limbs and the center of balance as well as the physical condition to use these facts. This combination makes him almost impossible to being knocked down/imbalanced, falling down and able to recover from momentary imbalances near instantly.
* **Enhanced Flexibility:** Midnight is able to bend and twist his body beyond the normal limits of physiology, although still only from the joints. His hypermobile joints, muscles, tendons and physiology in general allows Midnight to perform near-boneless looking contortions without stress or damage and comfortably stay in any position he chooses as long as he needs without effort or strain.
* **Enhanced Leap:** Midnight can jump farther than average members of his species. Impressively, this includes being able to jump over large fences, clear big holes in the ground, jump from building top to building top, and etc.
* **Enhanced Senses:** Midnight has extremely accurate senses, allowing him to see, hear, smell, taste, and feel better than an average member of their species.
* **Night Vision:** Midnight has excellent night vision, the ability to see in low light conditions or even total darkness. Whether by biological or technological means, night vision is made possible by a combination of two approaches: sufficient spectral range, and sufficient intensity range.
* **Enhanced Speed:** Midnight can move much faster than the average member of his species, beyond what can be emulated via natural training and with little to no maintaining.
* **Enhanced Stealth:** Midnight possesses incredibly extensive knowledge and skill in many types and ways of stealth tactics, enabling him to easily slip in and out of areas undetected. His abilities in all manners of stealth are so refined he appear as mere illusions to those who have been lucky to spot him.
* **Powerful Bite:** Midnight has a particularly strong bite, either because of sharp fangs/teeth, strong jaw-muscles, unusual jaw-structure (mandibles of insects, beak, etc.) or some other reason.

### Techniques

* **The Strategist:** Midnight has, time and again, shown to have a brilliant strategic mind; outwitting, outmaneuvering and physiologically exploiting his opponents.

## Relationships

### Brooklyn McHugh

Midnight's rescuer and current owner. Midnight appears to treasure Brooklyn,and believes that he is someone to protect with his life. He won't tolerate others trash-talking, threatening, or joking about Brooklyn's death and gets very defensive over him. Brooklyn appears to feel and act the same regarding Midnight, despite him being a pet. Others often find their relationship together confusing due to Midnight having a form aside from his cat one.

## Trivia

* The name "Midnight," is primarily a gender-neutral name of American origin that means twelve in the morning.
* Midnight first appears somewhere in the beginning of chapter five, during a conversation between Aom and Oliver.
	+ It should also be noted that he appears the same time as Oliver's "army of cats," or just "cat army,"
* In his first few appearances, Oliver gives Midnight the name "Bubblegum," sometimes referring to him as "Bubbles,"
* Unlike the rest of the Alliance, Midnight appears to be someone who refrains from killing his opponents. Likely due to wanting to befriend them.
