Apex

Freddie Fletcher was a simple Irish art student, but when he visited a museum in China with the famous crashed alien ship, he gained a unique ability that would make him more important to the development of humanity than anyone ever realised.

Relationships

 * Zodiac - Zodiac took in over 20 students after the explosion at the museum, and after waiting for all of them to awaken he became a teacher and father figure to them. Freddie was one of the last to awaken, and he trained for a long time, as he could not understand his powers. Once they realised he was teleporting through time, The Fixer began working on a suit that could allow him to travel through time. This suit turned out to be the Apex suit, and Zodiac recognised it, having to realise he had taught his own teacher. He revealed Freddie what had to happen, and he travelled back, finding and teaching a young Zodiac to hone his powers as he would do to himself years later. This teacher/student dynamic made for one of the most interesting techniques in the series, with two characters being each other's respective father figure.
