Ashton is a normal high school boy. He's got friends, gets good grades, and works a part time job at the mall. One night he is coming home from school when he sees a hurt kitten. He tries to pick it up but it runs away so he follows it into a building to try and rescue it. Unknowingly he is walking into a gang meeting. He sees too much, and the gang has to make a decision... kill him or take him. Original by hopelesssxromantic on AO3
