Bernard

Bernard was a childhood friend of Colt and Mikey. One summer, many years ago, the boys had been playing near a river when Bernard fell in. Colt, being one of the fastest runners in his town, ran to try and save him, but was too slow. Bernard was washed away by the rapids, never to be seen again.

This event irrevocably changed Colt, causing him to thrown himself into training to become even faster, so that one day, if someone else needed help, he would be fast enough.
