Jack's POV

I woke up at 6 in the morning as usual. By this point of my life, it is just ingrained my brain, I don't even need an alarm. I walked downstairs and worked out for two hours, then went upstairs. I made myself breakfast while watching the news. After that got dresses in a brown pair of jeans, a navy blue sweater, and a pair of brown shoes. Then I went downstairs and left to go to the park.

Same old routine.

I played with the children there, especially Jamie and his little sister Sophie. I loved kids, but I have never had any of my own. From age 14 up I have been told love is a weakness and to cut off all relationships. Even today I would be terrified that someone would use them against them, and then I would lose them. So I have just stayed single and played with kids instead, it seemed like the safer option.

I still want a family and kids, that is like my dream, but I am just terrified I could lose them. Especially since they can't protect themselves like I can, and I can't always be with them every waking moment of the day.

"Jack, I have to go home now. I have a test to study for." Jamie said.

"Alright, see you around." I said, then walked home. When I got home though something felt off. Even being retired for all of these years, that feeling in your gut never left.

I pulled out the gun that I always kept hidden on me, and slowly started walking around. I ran into the living room about to shoot when I was it was just Bunny and North.

"Jesus guys, you could have called." I said, putting my gun away, "So what do you want?"

"Jack, we need your help." North said.

"Guys, I'm retired. Send someone else."

"Jack, everyone else who was qualified is dead." Bunny said, and that caught my attention. Everyone?! When I left there were tons of agents as good as me if not better, and now all of them are dead!

"Not that I'm saying I'll take the job, but what do you need?" I asked curiously.

"We need you to take out a contract killer." North said handing me a file. I opened it and read it carefully.

This really caught my attention.

"She was one of us?!" I said shocked.

"Yes, a very loyal agent too." they both said.

"What happened that made her turn?" I asked.

"That information is classified." they said.

"Then no, if you can't tell me everything about someone this dangerous, then I have a feeling I shouldn't do this." I said handing them the file.

"Jack, she killed Sandy." North said.

"What!" I said shocked. Sandy was so kind and loveable, he was possibly my best friend.
