Hi, I'm Cameron Cooper. Your average down on his luck guy in his early twenties trying to get his life together. Problem is when you fall in with the wrong crowds, it's hard to get out.

This is a short story about one of the normally nameless grunts you see all the time in action movies.
One morning, Cameron gets a text from his friend about a job offer. Something simple that will pay well. But everything about this job has Cameron on edge. What has he got wrapped up in now?

Before Smoky lived on the Nameless Street, P & his family moved there. His parents taught the kids of the street the values of family & survival until they suddenly passed. As a young kid growing up on the Street, P's sister knew them as well as any Rude Boy. One day while trying to help children escape a kidnapping she is taken instead. 5 years later, there's still no sign of her until P spots a girl at the Fight on the Container Street that looks like his sister. Only, this girl has no memory of him or the Rude Boys & further more claims to be Rocky's younger sister? Watching all seasons & movies will help you enjoy the story more as you'll be able to recognize more scenes not as elaborated on, characters, Easter eggs etc. especially in later chapters. It's not required & you can still understand & enjoy the story I try & keep characters as close to in character and their original personalities & plot while adding more background & behind the scenes to those we don't hear a lot of in the original material (specially in earlier chapters) Update: A/N & annot. will now be in the comments, to keep the look of chapters cleaner. Story is my own creation, inspired from High&Low. I've had it in the back of my head for a while, since Jan. 2020 & writing here began Mar.-Apr. 2021. So if by chance resembles another fan-fiction you have previously read, I apologize & kindly ask for a link so I can make sure I have time to change my ideas so future plot points aren't the same/similar. Disclaimer: I don't own HiGH&LOW characters, plots, images etc. only original characters I personally created for this story. These rights go the creators of this world EXILE HIRO & other producers, writers, directors & actors of the project/franchise. I don't make any profit & purely written as a fan of the franchise. I wish to keep rights to my original designs that aren't found in the source material. Please ask before using them in your own material. Pc: HiGH&LOWComplete

I'm half half, I thought - I must be a nymph. I'm a joke to my family. I love my mom so much that I have to leave her behind before I do terrible things. Then. I met this girl. I know it's wrong. I know I shouldn't but I fell. And, worst, the monster inside me wants her badly. I don't know where to begin at all. And I sure don't know how I'll end this misery. ----------------------------- As of February 15, 2022: #4 in 5SOSPREFERENCE As of December 2024 #1 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE #2 in 5SOSPREFERENCE #10 in CALUMHOODIMAGINE #13 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERIMAGINE #10 in 5SOSIMAGINE #9 in CALUMHOODFANFICTION #13 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERFANFICTION #11 in CALUMHOODFANFIC #22 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERFANFIC #4 in MICHAELCLIFFORDIMAGINE As of February 2025: #10 in CALUMOODFANFICTION #17 in 5SOSIMAGINE #14 in CALUMHOODIMAGINE #20 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERIMAGINE #11 in MICHAELCLIFFORDIMAGINE #1 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE VOTE.

#1 in LGBT 9/23/21, #1 in Horror 9/23/21, #2 in BxB 9/23/21, #1 in ZombieApocalypse 9/23/21 Killian's eyes flickered up to Jasper. In the afternoon sunlight, the younger man's hazel irises brightened into a beautiful, golden honey-brown. Jasper was speechless for a few split seconds, until he managed to make his mind work out what to say next. "We're a team. That means no man gets left behind. I'll come back for you, I promise." ________________________ Killian-Grey has survived on his own for five months since the world was taken over by the dead. Desperation drives him to accidentally stealing somebody's food. A plea for help after being stabbed is answered by Jasper Adachi, an ex-military soldier determined to save the innocent and bring Killian back to the safety of his group. The two make an unlikely pair, but soon realize their survival may depend on one another more than they had initially thought. When the time comes, will Killian join Jasper's group, or wander out on his own once again? The dead are dangerous, but the living are cruel. If the two are to survive, they'll need to learn to get along and stick together. Will they work as a team, or become one of the dead?
