A student, a gang leader, and a damaged person are all personalities living inside of Ash Lynx. New York is rough, and he's slowly gotten used to it. But when Eiji Okumura, an innocent exchange student, stumbles into his walk of life, things become messy. Old foes formulate new plans and conspire against the world, and Ash struggles to choose between the life he has, and the life he wants. This is based off of canon Banana Fish, so some events occur as they do in the anime. However, as most things diverge from the original, a butterfly effect takes place. This story ends up completely different than where everything started. DISCLAIMER: All rights for the story belong to the Banana Fish creator! The art on the cover was not drawn by me, and I do not own it! All credit goes to that artist. Enjoy everyone!
