Martin was devastated after the divorce and watched as his mother took his sister to the safety of faraway Oregon, leaving him with his abusive drunk father who able to hide his drinking from the court somehow. At the age of 13, Martin ran away from home and joined one of the local gangs. While there he fell into all sorts of illegal activities. The gang was busted when Martin was 15 years old and he was tried as a minor. He was sent to jail for the next 3 years. Seeing the way some of the other kids were turning out in juvi and having the Lord, God of the Christian faith take a hold of his heart Martin decided to turn his life around. Martin told one of the officers about his abusive father and that was the reason behind why he joined up a gang. After providing evidence Martin's father went to jail and later rehab. Martin was released when he was 17 years old and without anyone to take care of him, he was placed into the Foster Care System where he was placed into Richard Line's home. Martin continued to live with the family even after he turned 18 a few months later and decided to go back to high school and essentially start his life back over. Richard had just turned 16 was also going to high school so the two enrolled together. At first, the school was hard for Martin and even with his faith it was hard to let old habits just die and he started to bully Todd Booker. Todd did his best to extend friendship to Martin until Stella Wayland stepped in and threated to take Martin to the Guidance Councilor herself. One of Todd's attempts at friendship with Richard was showing him a piece of the Pharaoh's Puzzle when Martin saw what Todd was doing he took one of the pieces and throw it into nearby bushes. Heartbroken Todd got mixed up with another bully who offered to beat Martin up for him. Todd refused and said that Martin of his friend and stepped in the way of the bully who beat both of them up since he was a real jerk. Moved by Todd's self-sacrifice Martin remembered the comarity that he had with the other gang members and that they would have done that for him if he was still a member. Martin went to the school grounds that night and recover the puzzle piece and with Richard's help and returned it to Todd's grandpa Edward Booker. The next day the bully who beat Todd and Martin up was playing in some garbage talking like it was money saying he was rich and was being transported to a mental hospital when school started. Completely unrelated Todd had finished the Pharaoh's Puzzle and was wearing it to school to show to his friends.
