Rephrase this.

Nathaniel Phua is the son of August, known by his alias, Ballistic, formerly the celebrated champion of the Thunderdome Games. After August's recklessness in combat led to Kit Siang's death, he distanced himself from his wife and son and lived as a recluse for two decades. Nathaniel idolized his father and his successes, aspiring to follow in his footsteps as a professional Apex Games competitor.

Nathaniel qualified to enter the Apex Games, while August remained determined to protect his son from the destructive path he once followed. August convinced The Syndicate to allow him to participate in the competition instead of Nathaniel. Thus, Ballistic, August's old alias, replaced Nathaniel in the Apex Games.

Ballistic stormed The Syndicate facility, demanding to enter the games in Nathaniel's place, and threatened Torres Silva that he would reignite his career with complete control over his interests. In the face of this threat and a potential ratings boost, Silva permitted Brinkman to enter the Apex Games.

After being disqualified, Nathaniel confronted Brinkman publicly and proceeded to destroy a model left by his father as a sign of his hate for him.

August, also known as Ballistic, used to be a celebrated champion of the Thunderdome Games until his recklessness resulted in Kit Siang's death. He distanced himself from his family for two decades, leaving his son Nathaniel to idolize him and aspire to follow in his footsteps as a professional Apex Games competitor. However, August was determined to protect his son from the destructive path he once followed and convinced The Syndicate to allow him to participate in the competition instead of Nathaniel. Nathaniel was disqualified from the games, which made him confront Brinkman publicly and destroy a model left by his father as a sign of his hatred for him.

Make it equally as long as my version.

Nathaniel Phua's father, August, was known as the famous Ballistic in the world of Apex Games. However, things went wrong when August's recklessness while fighting led to the death of Kit Siang. Following this, August distanced himself from his wife and son, living a secluded life for two decades. Nathaniel always looked up to his father and yearned to follow in his footsteps as a professional Apex Games competitor.

The opportunity arose for Nathaniel when he qualified to enter the Apex Games. Nevertheless, August was worried about his son's safety and did not want him to follow the same path he had taken. August convinced The Syndicate to let him compete instead of Nathaniel. Consequently, August, under his old alias of Ballistic, replaced Nathaniel in the games.

Unwilling to let his dreams get shattered, Nathaniel approached The Syndicate about allowing him to compete alongside his father. Ballistic stormed The Syndicate facility, insisting that Nathaniel takes his place, and warned Torres Silva that he would gain full control over his interests if his demands were not fulfilled. In consideration of Ballistic's reputation and potential ratings boost, Silva permitted Brinkman to enter the games.

Nevertheless, after Nathaniel was disqualified, he publicly confronted Brinkman and vented his frustration. In the heat of the moment, Nathaniel destroyed a model left by August as a sign of his hate for his father, intending to show his disagreement towards August's controlling behavior.

Nathaniel Phua, the son of August, who is also known as Ballistic, was previously a renowned champion in the Thunderdome Games. However, after August's reckless actions resulted in the death of Kit Siang, he distanced himself from his family and lived in seclusion for twenty years. Despite this, Nathaniel looked up to his father and aspired to become a professional competitor in the Apex Games, following in his footsteps.

Nathaniel managed to qualify for the Apex Games, but August was determined to protect his son from the destructive path he had once taken. With this in mind, August convinced The Syndicate to allow him to take Nathaniel's place in the competition. Consequently, Ballistic, August's former alias, took over Nathaniel's spot in the Apex Games.

Ballistic forcefully entered The Syndicate facility, demanding that he be allowed to participate in the games on behalf of Nathaniel. He even went as far as threatening Torres Silva, stating that he would regain control over his own interests and revitalize his career. Faced with this threat and the potential increase in ratings, Silva granted Brinkman permission to enter the Apex Games.

After Nathaniel was disqualified, he confronted Brinkman publicly and expressed his anger towards his father by destroying a model that symbolized his resentment.
