Past Sins
He was first seen fighting against Static, but Static felt that he looked familiar, but he just brushed it off as a case of déjà vu and just headed on his way to school, after school he challenged Static to another fight, which he happily agreed to, but as Static was about to win the fight, he cowardly revealed that he was the one to have killed his mom all those years ago, Static shocked by this news paused for a moment, using this to his advantage he knocked Static out unconscious and afterwards was laughing at them for failing to defeat him and fled the scene before Static could regain consciousnes.

A couple of days later Static and Gear went up against him again, but just as they were about to defeat him, his mom, mayor Thomasina Jefferson, yelled for him, pulled him by the ear and grounded him for life.
