Personal History

Marcus' earlier life was relatively unremarkable. He was born on the recently colonised planet called Midway Prime, set within the Midway star system. For the first few years of his life, his father served as a Starfleet Marine, and so was often away from home for long periods of time.

During this time, he grew very close to his mother. It was during his long talks with her, that he developed his love of history, specifically that of Earth. After his father retired from the military, it was obvious his older brother was the favourite. This caused a lot of animosity between the brothers and led to frequent fights between the two.

Aged 6 Marcus' little sister was born. As he was no longer the baby of the family, Marcus felt pushed out, and ended up getting into more and more trouble at school.

At the age of 10, Marcus ended up getting into a fight with another boy at his school, a kid called Roberto, who he had a rivalry with. This led to both boys being expelled from their school, and being sent to a local Military Academy. This did nothing to help Marcus, and he rebelled further.

Ever summer Marcus had leave of the academy, and would return home. They often ended up going on a summer vacation, which Marcus detested. He would inevitably end up arguing with his father, and storming off.

One summer, just Marcus and his father went away. They ended up going on a expedition to the highest mountain range on the planet. During this time, he and his father had a coming of age talk, and Marcus's father told him of what he had seen in the military. Marcus realised then what a great man his father had been, and had only been looking out for him this whole time.

Marcus returned to the academy a changed person. He and Roberto even ended up becoming the best of friends, each pushing each other harder and further. Furthermore, the training staff saw the potential and improvement in Marcus, and made him a squad leader.

It was during his time at the academy, that Marcus found he had an aptitude for martial arts, going so far as obtaining black belts in all the disciplines at the Military Academy.

The final test, in their last year at the Military Academy saw the cadets sent out to undertake a mock battle against the local garrison's troops. It was supposed to be the culmination of their time at the academy, but invariably ended up with all the cadets being humiliated by the training staff.

Marcus and Roberto had seen what happened to the cadets that failed this test before, and did not wish to see themselves humiliated, or even put back a year as often happened to those who failed.

They stayed up after hours, weeks beforehand and meticulously planned every stage, along with the rest of the group. Marcus knew he could not fail, as it would be an embarrassment to his father.

The day came, and Marcus was one of only twenty out of the one hundred and fifty cadets that passed the final test. Roberto was not one of them, and for this Marcus blamed himself, for he was the squad leader.

It was at the last stage, and Marcus had most of his squad intact, a feat in itself. They made a charge for the last strongpoint, but sadly they were ambushed. Marcus, and few others were able to make it to the strongpoint, and capture it, but not before Roberto was captured.

For his courage, leadership and determination, Marcus passed out of the Military Academy top of his class, and thanks to him, it was one of the largest classes to pass out.

After the ceremony, one of Marcus' training instructors took him aside, and handed him an application for Starfleet. He advised Marcus, that he had the qualities Starfleet needed right now, as he himself had been an officer on a starship before retiring.

Marcus talked it over with his father, who was disappointed he was not following in his footsteps, but understood the call of the stars.

He had a leaving party, where everyone wished him good luck. Roberto took him to one side, and thanked Marcus for everything he had done for him.
