Everything thing you see, everything you touch , everything you are, it isall built on numbers, the beating of your heart , the stars above and the waves of the ocean, nothing exists without harmony , without pattern. If you think the world is chaos,it is only because you do not yet see the design. If you look closely , listen carefully, you could hear the rhythm beneath it all , a song that never stops and you are a note in that great symphony .
This were the words spoken by one of the founders of mathematics and great philosopher, Pythagoras.
Ever since Damon heard this quote from the mouth of his first grade math teacher, he became obsessed with numbers. He didn't just write down numbers and solves calculations like most data analysts, he was also interested in the practical aspect of applying numbers and this got him involved in engineering.
By the age of fifteen after being given an IQ of 185 he was accepted into MIT for a computer engineering program. At sixteen years old he graduated and was recruited by the CIA as a threat assessment analyst. A year later while he was still an employee of the CIA, he went into MIT again this time studying both mechanical and electrical engineering. With his IQ rate and the fact that he had a photographic memory, he was able to get Phds in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering and civil engineering by the age of twenty five. As for computers, Damon was a god , anything that has once been connected to a network and has a serial number was not safe from him .
The CIA who funded his education were so proud of him and treated him like their most prized possession. What ever he needed cars , houses , funds for pet projects, etc. Realistically they knew that those things couldn't amount to what they had received from Damon. From weapon building to construction of structures and equipment, his work was always spot on . He always insisted on using correct materials and correct measurements when he was working and that made his work impeccable.
But with all his skills and strengths, Damon had a flaw, his high intelligence and his obsession with numbers made him to only see the world logically and without any emotional attachments, this gave him a psychological profile of an intelligent psychopath .
This was not a problem for a while until he turned twenty seven. At that time he had spent eleven years in the CIA and the new agency director at the time was irked that Damon who was just an engineer and and analyst was making more money than her and was doing it without ever stepping foot in the field so she decided to put him in the field without training or so she thought because Damon had used the entire HUMINT ( human intelligence), counter intelligence and counter terrorism books as light reading before he went to sleep. Coupled with the fact that he worked out , performed weapons and hand to hand combat training like the rest of the field agents he was prepared.
His mission was to divert public attention from a suspected CIA" illegal black site" that was found in the Canadian Forrest. The way he handled the situation shocked the entire agency.
Damon released a virus that attacked any device that had a camera , it acted so that his face was was erased from any database and so security cameras couldn't pick his face out. Essentially, the virus wiped him off any camera in real time. With that out of the way he could now act with impunity.
Usually when a there is a probe into the CIA activities, they would most likely release rebuttal press statements but this time as Damon was the agent incharge, he went on a spree killing expedition, his targets were mostly junkies, drug dealers, gang members, mostly criminals and scumbags. He would kill them and hand them upside down with their entrails hanging out of their bellies.
Within a week, the Canadian authorities and press got wind of it and so did the public focus, there seemed to be a new and brutal serial killer in their midst.
The issue of the black site was now viewed as a conspiracy theory as there were very few evidence of its existence mostly speculative . The main issue was the serial killer who had killed twenty eight people in two weeks sending fear into the minds of the people. It also give Damon the opportunity to transport the CIAs prisoners to a more secure site after that the black site was cleared out and destroyed using thermite that burned up everything including the concrete and steel leaving nothing that could be identified by poke nosers.
When Damon returned to CIA headquarters in Langley, he had become a legend. His tactics was brutal but effective using a worse crime to cover up a bad speculative issue.
Damon stayed in the agency for six more years and was appointed station chief in Berlin, Moscow and Beijing. Most people speculated that he was up for deputy director or even the director of the CIA but then he suddenly retired at the age of thirty four and made his way to the private sector where he established DBX incorporated.
His company did construction, weapons and vehicle production , mechanical prosthetic limb production.
The company also replicated aircraft, ships and tanks that were sold to the highest bidder. This put a strain on his relationship with the government but after heavy negotiations, he was allowed to continue although he could only sell to vetted parties.
For five years , he ran the company and made it to be one of the most respected tech and defense consultants companies in the world worth billions of dollars.
Soon he decided to dabble in quantum mechanics one of the most unstable forms of science that sometimes defied the laws of physics and nature.
It all started when one of his space proves trapped particles of dark matter in a vacuum chamber . This was a theoretical material had only been speculated in fiction until now.
He decided to use this material to create an engine that could allow for faster than light space travels. If he could do that, his name would be said alongside the greats like Einstein.
The engine was to be produced in a sterile lab where he would try to fuse the dark matter with a radioactive isotope to create an almost eternal fuel source.
But for the first time in his entire life he couldn't calculate the outcome of the experiment, he had loved numbers but at that moment numbers couldn't save him.
The dark matter fused the radioactive isotope turning it into a miniature black hole that sucked up everything in the room and by the time his employees could turn the room into a vacuum chamber, Damon had already been sucked into the black hole.
