Four people. Four lives. Four jobs. They're all involved in a murder that has already been solved, and it's up to them to stop the count of dead bodies before one of them dies. *** Following his suspension, a young and elite assassin who works for a clandestine government agency returns to his hometown. He notices things he doesn't want to see. His thirst for vengeance and hunger for murder fuels his new goal. Kill the person he once cared about. Since his tragic past, an FBI agent turned drifter has been hell-bent on delivering justice mercilessly. The former intelligence agent travels to Santa Monica to right a wrong that may or may not be wrong. An aspiring and young screenwriter who never gives up easily is falsely accused of a crime he did not commit, given the fact that all evidence pointed to the young man. There is no one he can turn to, no one who truly believes him. Until the day before his alleged arrest, he was given the option of going to jail or going with a stranger to prove his innocence. A rookie FBI agent who was recently tasked with going into the field and finding the agency's most valuable asset becomes entangled in a mess after teaming up with the one person she was asked to find. It could be costly for her, putting her limbs, career, and possibly her life in jeopardy. It all started with an indirect murder. Will these four be able to put a stop to it all before it spirals out of control and becomes a Killing Bind? *** Word count: [{85000 words - 95000 words}]

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

The Road Not Taken

20 parts Complete

"You motherfucker...! You're gonna pay for this!" A young man in his twenties screamed and wailed like a banshee. "Yeah...I guess," the young teenager pointing a gun at him said with a little regret. "My name is Hughes Windows. My father is the governor!" The young man screamed. "Yeah...yeah....I already know that. I'm prepared for the military. Why'd you think I want to kill you?" With that the teenager shot the man. Flynn Rider was an S rank assassin. Three hundred targets, fifty ongoing, two hundred and fifty dead. Best killer on Earth. He doesn't just kill, but also wipes the person away from the surface of the world without a trace. With the acquired knowledge of the modern world, and the wittiness of a war machine, Flynn embarks on a most undescribable journey. The journey was filled with both happiness, and sadness. These memories will be forever imprinted in Flynn's memories. Even though he knows what danger lurks in the shadows, he believes he doesn't have to take any risks, for he had taken the biggest risk.
