Two girls like ancient ruins: Abandoned. Destroyed. And often a mystery.
They were told their skills would be used for good. They told them they were being sent somewhere special. No one told them they would end up like this.
My name is Kac Skyers but only a few know me by that name, I'm better know as "Ginger". I'm 18 years old and I'm an assassin, well.... I'm an assassin among other things.
Many wonder how I'm able to live my life knowing I've hurt innocent people, but it's part of the job and to be honest, it doesn't bother me that much. I'm pretty sure I'm not capable of feeling real human emotions anymore.
But of course it hasn't always been like that...
Gingers flashback June 2009
I grew up in poor pockets of LA, no one really knew they existed simply because movie companies would only ever film in the wealthy areas.
My parents were the kindest, most passionate people in the world, I also had twin brothers that were three years older than me.
It was a peaceful quiet night just like any other, that was until I heard a loud bang come from downstairs. I crawled out of bed and went to investigate, I follow the voices I hear coming from the living room. I hid behind a chair and watched the tragic scene unfold behind my eyes, there were 4 men pointing guns at my parents and brothers. -bang, bang, bang- it happened so fast, I wasn't even able to comprehend.
The men ran out the house, and I ran over to my parents.
"Daddy" I repeatedly screamed and shook him over and over. I wished this was some kind of twisted nightmare, but no matter how much I wished I knew it was reality. (End of flashback)
My parents died on the spot, not even the ambulance that came soon after could save them.
Thinking about the days where I was a happy kid with a family made my stomach twist and turn every time.
Since that day I've been stone cold, that was until him...
After my parents died i was placed into a group home for troubled girls for 5 years, the girls in the home ranged from abandoned and abused to dangerous criminals.
That was where I met Sage, she was apart of the abandoned and abused group, so right off the back we had a lot in common.
We hated that group home, they judged us and treated us like slaves. They stripped us of our self esteem, well the little we had left.
We were sick of it, so we decided to take action. The rule of the group home was that you had to be home by 10, Sage and I didn't even bother going back, there was nothing to go back to so we kept running.
We lived on the streets for 2 years, in that time span Sage and I got really close.
We were 16 at the time and we worked at a sketchy bar, they didn't care that we weren't old enough because once again it was sketchy.
That night the bar was pretty packed which was unusual because the bar is on the poor side of town.
Lee Taemin was in town because he had some business to tend to. I always heard many things about Taemin, one being that he's a notorious gang leader, not to mention his good looks and charming personality.

I would've never thought that someone as infamous as Lee Taemin would've ever taken an interest in me, but I was wrong.
After the night we met, he took Sage and I under his wings; teaching us everything we needed to survive in life, at least that's what he told us.
He taught us to be cold ruthless criminals, I found it ironic because he was anything but cold and ruthless towards me.
He called me his muse I was his only Ace
But any criminal knows how to play their cards, and I was dealt the wrong hand.
