It was the first thing he saw on an old desk from a school. The photo's frame and glass were broken. A photo of a very handsome man with a serious face. Whoever this was they looked exactly like him. Studying the photo further he noticed some differences. There was not a single scar on his face. Not even on his forehead like the man who hired him. As strange as it was the man who set him to this task was just appointed Overseer look like him as well. This look alike in the photo was dressed in a fine suit. Next to him was a stunning looking woman with a heart shaped face and a big smile across her face. Looking around the abandoned town house the detective pocketed the photo as evidence. The place had been abandoned for some time. So had the rest of the neighborhood. On this world many cities were left abandoned no thanks to the horde of monsters that invaded. People and families were devoured torn to pieces, killed, and made into slaves. Although he was a hard man he tried to control his tears.
Recollecting himself he resumed the search of the town house. Like any house there was a set of furniture, a large TV sitting on a wooden table. The kitchen was on the right and lead to the garage. It had a bar and counter top. In the corner of the left side was the fireplace and opposite that was the kitchen table. On the walls were photos and portraits of the family that once lived here. As he inspected each photo he noticed three children with the lovely couple. Both appeared to be young to even have children. One of the children looked far too familiar. He had seen photos of this person while investigating with a doppelganger of his who put him up to this task. Since he could not be off his world until midnight it was up to him to search this area. The individual that was familiar to him from certain photos and videos matched the description of the male in the photos. He appeared happy with this family, a mother, a father, two siblings who look like mom and dad.
If he recalled correctly the man could not shut up about his family. He adored them and stuck with them as much as possible. His father may have been stern, sincere, serious, and strict at times with his military demeanor. Despite that he loved him all the same. That was sort of how his employer was when he went on a crusade. According to the reports the man that was in the photos was adopted. He looked nothing like them with a little more fat and different facial features. In his mind the detective and investigator realized this was where mutants had broken into the house and killed the entire family save one. Snooping around even further he discovered a letter meant for the boy who ran off after the attack. Picking up the letter the investigator left the abandoned house wondering if the Field Marshall was the father.
