Niko had a lot of trouble making friends. He felt like a real life Tin Man and it sucked. He really did try to make friends and be a normal kid.
His obvious mutation made him a leper in his school. No one wanted to talk to the freak! It wasn't his fault he had become this -- this mutant abomination.
He'd often wondered what life would be like if he was human. Would he be hanging out with kids in his neighborhood, playing on the football or wrestling team or involved in clubs? At 15 years old, being an outcast could lead to a serious bout of depression.
One day, he saw a group of kids talking about a birthday party for a fellow student at the LazerTag gameroom. Niko longed to go, but he wasn't invited. He was never invited. That night, Niko finally snapped.
Niko made his way to Andrews Park, where he knew only homeless people and crackheads went. He knew he wasn't going to be bothered. After many failed attempts in the past, Niko decided to use a pneumatic nail gun against his temple to end it all.
Niko arrived at a bare spot of the park, and unzipped his backpack. He withdrew the nail gun, and was about to place it against his head, when he heard a voice call out to him.
