Living under the radar wasn't an exactly easy thing, but its what I had to do in order to survive. I wasn't living my life like I had imagined it. Graduating from a recruit to an agent at Veloce 2-1-4 was my ultimate goal. I am sure you are wondering what that is, but it is-was my life.

Ever heard of an assassin agency, where you kill for the man that was my life. At the age of seventeen I was selected by a covert group of well-trained assassins who were supposed to teach how to kill. I wasn't given a choice, I was dragged out of the streets of Chicago to an underground facility that could withstand a lot of drone strikes. These assassins were very well trained. They could kill with or without guns. You were taught to kill with your hands, anything you could kill with. I was supposedly selected because I was very intelligent and they could turn me into one of them.

I was scared at first. It was either join them or be killed because I already knew about them. I never had a choice. They were now my new family. I could never contact anyone I knew or they would kill them as punishment to me. I really didn't have anyone to contact anyway because I practically lived alone and fend for myself. The only person I knew was Mima Johnson, my foster mother, who was really mean and good at times. It was like she was bipolar, but by the time Veloce took me I was living alone. 

Eventually I warmed up to Veloce 2-1-4, they became my family, but not quite, because they tried to kill me.
