HEY GUYS! IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY HEARD THE AMAZING NEWS, DANIEL SUNJATA AND AARON TVEIT JUST ANNOUNCED THAT MIKE IS 'ALIVE-ISH!' Oh, and I have a new story for you. Okay, so this one probably won't be super long, and what you have here is just a tiny prologue (sorry). Enjoy!

I've always been a dreamer, so determined to make my life the way that I wanted it. I was driven, focused, prepared. My parents would tell me to slow down, come back down to earth and all, but nothing could stop me. Being an FBI agent was all I ever wanted. After that? I didn't know. I still don't know, actually.

It figures, though, that the one thing in my life I thought I would be completely prepared for is the thing that obliterated me. See, that's the tricky thing about dreaming. In your dreams, you are the best of the best. In your dreams, things go exactly to plan. In your dreams, you don't fail. In reality, the dangers are real. There are no second chances. I failed. I am a failure.

My life has done my childhood dreams an injustice. I am not the man I hoped to be. I am flawed and controlling and raw and selfish. I am a liar.

Maybe someday I can fix the mistakes I've made.
