Liam Onita/VII : Conception (The Story So Far)

''Please be advised the way this will be recorded is meant to tell the story with information that has been pieced together by Liam and written in his leather bound journal. The information referenced will reflect present thoughts and information rather than the past. Good luck.''

''Life goes on. One day Liam starts to receive more information sent to him via his apartment and a random email from an unknown source. The contents of said email contained his old combat record, detailing his combat knowledge, weapon expertise and other pertinent information. As time went on this information ate at him as memories of his past begin to surface. Reality vs reflections of the past.''

''Time moves ever forward - Liam decides to stop running from his calling. He proceeds to dig deep into the notes and information presented to him. As he begins to research, more memories flood his mind. After reviewing this information with Harlow and [redacted]. Every training exercise, every painful memory and thought coursed through his body. Nearing the end of all the documents a dvd was slid underneath his door. Concerned about how this came to be, he reluctantly decided to view the footage. What would follow... would lead to more questions. A video withholding 45 seconds of footage... from the point of view of someone dying. Amidst the embers and smoke, you see a hand reach out towards the blistering inferno which we would later discover was by Liams own doing. In the corner of this footage was a very specific date. 3/06/2020.''

''Reflecting on this... he was focused on the date. Why was it so familiar? Then a earth shattering realization rendered him unable to move. He instantly left his apartment and sped all the way to Roosters Rest where he left his Sentinel XS. He sighed... paced back and fourth before walking to the back of the vehicle and looking at the plate. The plate he had custom made many months before read as follows "Three Six". He lost control of himself in the moment and begun to destroy the car. His hands covered in blood and bruised, he remembered something else... learning his old code name. VII. He had seen it referenced somewhere before. It was the alias used for his dongle, the same dongle he had since he entered Los Santos. Had he left little reminders for himself in case he wanted to remember? Or was this some sick joke someone was playing on him? It was after this... Liam made a choice silently. He was going to embrace his instincts, "fall back into some old habits" and set himself up to see if he could still hang in a matter of speaking. As you could imagine, the traumas mental and physical had taken their toll on Liam yet he felt as motivated as ever. As if something had awoken within.''

This concludes chapter IV.
