What happens when you try and revive a dead person, well they're alive again, just not in the way you hoped. See when someone dies they are dead....forever, all those zombie movies warn you of things like a mob of zombies coming to eat your brains. Well luckily for this case that didn't happen, it just fucked up your life forever. You don't eat flesh or brains, you just can't die. Not being able to die, and your body not allow you to die is fucked up really. Oh and another thing, you're pretty much a walking rotting corpse. Now you try to rejoin society while smelling like death. It's hard isn't, your dyed blue hair which has faded over the years waves in the wind. You feel cold inside as always, there's no end to your suffering, it will never end. Skin cold, eyes dull, no beating of your heart. Your heart lay dormant inside your cold rotting body. Blood shot eyes looking up at the stars, thinking to yourself. Your blood ran cold that night, and never ran again, now you've seen your loved ones age and die. Hell you don't even remember them you just assumed really. You wear a ring but you don't remember if its just there or tour married. You see no point in trying anymore, there's nothing left for you. You stand up, turning and walking back into the old crumbling building you call home.
A ragtag gang of teens teams up with a neighboring girl gang when a major cartel moves into town, threatening their families, their turf, and the community they've worked so hard to protect.
*****
Cash West formed the Seven 20s - a gang of six overzealous teens with guns - to keep his tiny, crime-infested town in nowhere California safe. His methods are unorthodox and frankly illegal, but the town loves his Robin Hood heroics. However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted?
