Summary:What if Ian died when Alex was 8 years old. After-Nightshade. At 9 years old he quits and is placed at an orphanage under the name William Smith.

Sticking closely to the threat they actually place him in an orphanage. After he refused the next mission they were going to give him MI6 dumped him into an orphanage in Wales with a reliable background incase anyone saw there fill. He currently went under the name of William Smith. The only thing he was surprisingly grateful was that they transfered the mission payment plus his inheritance into bank accounts. They also kept his house in Chelsea so he could access when he turned 18.

His new name is William Smith and was dropped of in Wales at an orphanage called Sunshine Children's Adoption Centre. His background was that his parents died in a car crash however due to his small stature he survived. It was meant to explain the scars from the missions he went on. He had no living relatives to take care of him.

Sunshine's Children Adoption Centre was the worst orphanage they could find. He thinks that due to how bad it is he would come running back to them. However MI6 miscalculated as it was like utopia compared to some of his missions and Brecon Beacons.

He was currently wearing a midnight black bullet and stab proof hoodie made with a nano technology so that it would be able to repair itself. He had a long sleeve opaque black T-shirt that would hide his bullet wound scar. He also had a watch

that when turning the dial three times would result in a small explosion. He was also wearing a stud that when folded out contained a diamond edge so that it would cut through anything. The hoodie, watch and stud was a last gift from Smithers with a parting word of 'I hope to see you again young chap but for your sake i don't.'

He was wearing black cargo pants with multiple pockets to store multiple things and army issued black combat boots. Black plated gloves also added to this list. In one pocket he stores a medical kit in a black casing and has black ceramic tools instead of your usual metal ones. Another had a jack knife incase he ran into some 'bad people'. He also wrapped black bullet and stab proof bandages round his wrist and neck for just incases. His hair has grown quite long as throught the missions he never really had time to cut it and when he came back there really wasn't enough time either. He tied it up into a medium high ponytail that ended at the base of his neck. He also painted his nails with a diamond base so he could still do damage even when he lost his weapons. It was in the colour 'Abyss'.

The police officer lead the newly dubbed 'William' from the funeral to the orphanage and met a obese lady called Lucy.
