Seven Soldiers | applyfic
6 parts Ongoing The MCIA investigates magic-related crimes, and Squad Zero is the best team in the business. Much to their bosses' dismay, the key to their success is that they also never follow the plan. But this time, their trickshot ways and snap decisions may not be enough. A conspiracy is unraveling, one that may extend past the gang violence that permeates the South ⸻ all the way up to the feds and beyond. Seven cold cases, seven missing kids, and seven expert assassins for the Mythica, wealthy gangsters straight from hell who have their claws dug into everything. The sirens fight over South Florida, the Wendigo blood purists hunt magical abnormalities in the backroads of Louisiana. But the Mythica have dominated the criminal underworld for years, slipping through the MCIA's fingers like water. Something reeks of corruption.
It's 1965. Everyone hates the president of the United States. That's nothing new. But his son, who's kept hidden behind closed doors with a dark secret that could cripple the country's very tentative status on the hierarchy of worldwide power if it got out? Well, no one paid him any mind. Not until the attempted assassination. And now it's a curious matter: who would want to kill the first son ⸻ and why? In such a delicate situation, how do you fight fire with fire? An assassin for an assassin. Or seven, to be precise. When Agent Bridge was assigned to the case, he was expecting plots from foreign countries to exploit the exposed weakness. He wasn't expecting the Mythica to be involved.
But the president is running out of options. And a deal's a deal. His son's life, for his soul.
