This story takes place in a dystopian future, where the government controls everything and where nothing remains a secret for long. When the System was established, everyone's freedom was snatched away. In exchange, the lives of those under the control of the System became the epitome of perfection without choice. Those who dodged the System formed the Rebellion, a group hell-bent on obliterating the System's government - - no matter what the cost. To those who are wondering, this story has nothing to do with actual presidential assassinations that have occurred in the past. This was a writing challenge I had given myself, and nothing more. Fortunately, inspiration struck an all-time high and I'm in the process of writing more chapters to the story. Enjoy!

In a world where the line between right and wrong is almost impossible to see, a secret government program assigns assassins known as "the Blades." Each Blade is assigned a target, called a "Point," and they have exactly three days to eliminate them. If they fail, the consequences are brutal. Tasked with eliminating their target within a perilous three-day window, the Blades face the dire consequence of failure: either the Point is given the ultimate right to revenge, or the ruthless government steps in to execute the assassin for non-completion. With a thrill-inducing countdown ticking away, every mission becomes a high-stakes battle where only one person can survive. But not everything is as clear-cut as it seems. Some Blades start to question their orders. As the oppressive pressure mounts, ethical dilemmas and surprising connections unfold, forcing assassins to confront their own humanity. Loyalties fracture, secrets unravel. As the clock counts down, the Blades face impossible decisions. Should they blindly follow orders, or risk their own lives to do what's right? In a system designed to break them, they'll have to figure out where they stand before time runs out. In "The Fatal Assignment," A twisted game where survival is the only prize. Chosen from the forgotten corners of society - the desperate, the skilled, the expendable - they were given a target, a weapon, and a countdown clock. Failure meant death. Simple, brutal, and terrifyingly effective.
