As a child, Max Blackwell was always the golden boy. He was smart. He was funny. He was extremely caring. But he could kick your ass if needed.

His parents, Christina and Jason Blackwell, were agents at Black Waters. They were best friends with Janet and Michael. That's how Max and Dominic met.

Dominic was the bad boy to Max's golden boy. They were complete opposites, yet they were the same. They continuously trained with each other, learning from each other. Dominic was daring, but he fought before he thought. On the other hand, Max was thoughtful, but sometimes he was idle for too long. Soon, they became best friends. Practically brothers, some could say.

When they were both 5, his little sister was born. She was named Maya. They both completely adored the small child. They protected her, as if she was too precious for the agent world. As soon as she could walk, they began training her on their own. Both of their parents too busy to do it on their own.

As a teenager, Max grew more advanced. He made technology. He fixed technology. He hacked technology. He had a love for it. Meanwhile, he was still up to his old tricks with Dominic. Soon, they began going on missions. They slept with people, then killed them. Dominic loved this method of killing targets, and so did Max. Free sex and then cutting all ties loose. Dominic had changed the golden boy in Max. They would've been worse, but the only thing or person keeping them grounded was little Maya Hayes. They hated leaving the small child on her own, as she had no other little friends to play with. They quickly finished their missions to return to her. To train her. To protect her.

He remembered how Dominic looked at his little sister. He had a soft spot for her, unlike other females. He trained her harder than anyone, but loved her unconditionally. If she had a problem, Dominic would be the first to help. He practically raised her on his own. One day, as they both watched an almost teen Maya spar with someone, they grinned in pride. They had trained her so well that she could kick an adults agent ass. Almost, at least. She was still a bit slow. He remembers their conversation:

Dominic chuckled, beaming with pride. "Look at her! She's gonna be a real badass soon. She might even pass me as top Wave." he said.

Max shook his head, laughing. "I guess the gene or whatever passed on."

Dominic nodded in agreement, then sighed. "Yeah. But... I'm so scared for her, man."

Max looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Why? We trained her extremely well. She's smart. What do you have to be afraid of?"

Dominic shrugged a bit. "Well.. you know how this life is, M. She'll have to go on missions soon enough. And I might not be able to go with her. I don't want her killed before she even gets started."

Max sighed, the reality of the situation finally hitting him. Dominic and him won't be around forever. They wouldn't be able to protect Maya her entire life. He ran a hand through his blonde hair, nodding. "Yeah man..."

Dominic looked at Maya again, his own green eyes matching hers. "God damnit Maya. Pick up your speed..." he mumbled. Maya was losing against an agent bigger than her. He had taught her that size didn't matter, but speed did. Hit them hard, and hit them fast.

Max looked as well, chuckling. "She'll get the hang of it soon enough."

Dominic nodded, looking at Max. "Listen. I want you to promise me something."

Max looked back at him, nodding. "Yeah, yeah. Anything. What is it?"

Dominic had a serious look on his face. Max knew this was important. He rarely got this face. "If I die... I need you to protect Maya. For as long as you can. I don't care. You know how stubborn she can be. And how sassy she can get. You're the only one I trust with her life. Please."
