"And now you're standing here, ready to kill the only person that understands you? That stood by you and helped you, did nothing but care for you? You're ready to throw all of that away because it will bring you a little closer to getting what you want. So tell me, who's the bad guy now?" __________ Adan Quinn is a nineteen year old assassin. Raised by her mysterious uncle Vick, and trained to take out the bad guys practically since she could crawl, she is the one of the most dangerous citizens in the entire city. Everything is going according to plan. Until that is, she goes to dispose of a body and comes in contact with a man who also happens to be doing the same thing. That, unsurprisingly, is when everything went downhill. The more she spends time with this man (against her better judgement), the more she comes to realize not everything is so black and white. Only when she starts to question things does she realize that there are things no ones been telling her, things that will change her life forever. **DISCLAIMER** This story was not written in order. At all. The whole process has really been more of a write-when-inspiration-hits kind of thing, so I apologize if it seems a little bit all over the place. Some of the parts are sort of longer, but the majority of them will probably be short. It's also the first story that I've written that's going to be well over 10 parts, so I'll try to update it as often as I can. But anyways, I hope you enjoy!

Going through high school without much of a second glance, she knows more than anyone else that life is hard, and sometimes it doesn't get any better. It's always been that way for her, ever since the night her mom allegedly died in a car accident when she was only four years old. After that, nothing was ever the same.
