A SECOND CHANCE

CHAPTER 1 : ALASKA RUSSO

somewhere around California there was a small town called Pine Ridge where lived a young man called Alaska Russo. Alaska was a person who suffers from nonchalant syndrome but he still managed to make a lot of friends, usually people who suffers the syndrome find it difficult to make friends but Alaska found it easy, maybe because he was famous for being an Actress, Producer, Global Ambassador and quite rich. With all the popularity and all the respect his status in the economy has earned him Alaska still lived a normal life, away from the camera, away from the paparazzi and the fame that's why he chose to settle in a small town Pine Ridge. Alaska was someone who kept his past to himself not even his many friends or you might call them his followers knew a thing about his past.

It's understood that Alaska appeared in Los Angeles in 2020 before that he didn't exist. Some say he is a biggest criminal on the run, some says a man's past is better left un turned. Alaska usually spent his days which he wasn't working or what you may call his lonely days at a local night club every evening of those days. However Alaska wasn't an alcoholic person despite spending all his free time at a night club, He just liked the vibe and unlike many people who suffer nonchalant, Alaska enjoyed where there's many people around he says he never felt so relaxed.

Some around 2024, June I think. Alaska wasn't working so as usual he visited his hang out spot at the night club and after a few hours he got an email with a video link from untraceable number, Curious Alaska opened the link and watched the video, What he saw on the video change him for better or worse. It's said on the video Alaska witnessed his pregnant wife and eleven year old daughter being tortured to death. First his wife was torn apart bit by bit, his daughter was forced to watch as her mother was being tortured and then the daughter's turn came a while after the mother collapsed in pain not dead just collapsed. Alaska left the night club in a hurry losing his mind so I'm told but when he got there the masked person who performed the torture was no where to be found, all Alaska could see was blood of his wife and daughter everywhere.

The Russo family, Wife and daughter I mean, weren't entirely dead it seemed like the torturer wanted Alaska to see his family taking the last breath of their lives. Alaska kept it sane for some reason but a few weeks after his beloved Wife and Daughter buried he started acting out, Rumors has it saying he was losing his sanity.

It started with self harming, always drunk, stopped working entirely and failed attempted murder or what you might call failed suicide. Forced Alaska's Close friend Ryn had to take a decision and send her good friend to the mental institution where he spent 8 months until he came back to his senses.

After 8 whole months Alaska was released out of the mental institution mental stable but rumors says that was just an act of Alaska because after a few days, no more than a week. Alaska used all his savings into founding a non-profit task force organization called CSO. The purpose of the CSO was to hunt down terrorists and terminate them at first sight. Rumors says Alaska funded the CSO organization because he couldn't kill himself, he couldn't kill whoever tortured and killed his family so it was better to kill those like before they do what they did to Alaska to other families.

The CSO is believed to be non profitable association but some says Ryn pays the members since it was a dangerous line of work, Ryn is a Co-Leader of the CSO since she couldn't let Alaska lead alone because no one understands Alaska's trauma better than her, At first Alaska tried assure Ryn that it wouldn't be a problem for him to lead solo but Ryn didn't think twice.

Alaska couldn't have leaded the CSO alone if you ask me because ever since he came back from the institution he was different, At first before 2024 Alaska was believed to be suffering from nonchalant syndrome but there were never symptoms of it in Alaska's lifestyle but now in 2024 after coming from the mental institution. It's clear that he do really suffer from the syndrome because all the missing symptoms are now visible.

Alaska doesn't go out anymore, he doesn't talk to anyone but Ryn, he's no longer the Alaska who they once wished to be him he's the opposite, Now Alaska is always with Ryn and Ryn always does the talking, he doesn't work anymore, doesn't drink, doesn't go out ever, and doesn't do small talk, when he's approached by someone he simply skips the greetings and small talk and gets to the point which usually is "what do you want from me,talk or be gone"

Many says Alaska doesn't care about whatever is happening around the world as long it doesn't involve the names Alaska Russo or Ryn Montez. During the press conferences, meetings or any other CSO business that needs decision making and involve paperwork Alaska doesn't show Ryn deals with it, Some of CSO even says they only hear from rumors that Alaska is the owner and a Co-Leader of the company they work in because he never set foot at the base or any of the CSO operations. It's believed that Alaska only shows on field operations and not every, just important ones and he never travels with the squad he arrives first or he finds them on the scene. Some says he's lazy or doesn't care because that one time Ryn had called him to a scene where two females were brutally murdered by what it looked like a terrorist but when Alaska got there he examined the scene for a few minutes and simply asked Ryn "you called me out for this?" and with that said he fled the scene.

The were debates about Alaska all over the internet about this spectaculation of him taking some cases lightly and taking others seriously, Ryn appeared in many live shows to calm the frustrated people but people demanded Alaska to take all cases the same as all murded victims deserves equal justice but for the first time in a long time Alaska appeared in a live show and said with all due respect the CSO is a nonprofit Task force, it doesn't receive money from anyone and that means it doesn't take orders from anyone but himself and he left the show midshow.

After the appearance of Alaska and his well said statement people started saying things such as Alaska thinks he's better than the whole world, saying he shown the state no respect, so saying the guy has been through a lot, comments where all over newspapers, social media, until it was silenced by a trending video of what we call haters somewhere around in the local mall, the guy was seen harassing Alaska carrying a video camera filming while shouting to Alaska why didn't the terrorists behind killing those 2 females aren't bought to justice yet and after that viral video it's believed the guy was found brutally murdered in his apartment with a massege written with his blood on the wall "Russo is mine"

The whole Country went quite in fear as it looked like the famous killer who was rumored to be the psycho serial killer who murdered Alaska's family is back and wants to be the only one who makes Alaska suffer, Anyone who gets close to harming Alaska dies by the hand that bought Alaska at the state he's in.

Alaska however remained calm like he doesn't care, Ryn ordered some CSO agents to guard Alaska 24/7 but Alaska told Ryn that he cannot cope if he feels he's being watched by people however he doesn't care if the psycho serial killer which Alaska and Ryn call Baba Yeager is watching him. Ryn tried to convince Alaska that this Baba Yeager is dangerous and told him to remember he tortured his wife and daughter just to get to him. Alaska claims Baba Yeager is just a delusional coward who only torture and kills the weak, he added that Baba Yeager is an amateur and he's got no time for amateurs.
