"When there are no good guys, which bad guys do you choose? [...]There are no heroes, Miss Lin. Only survivors." -The Buried Life, Carrie Patel

After falling from being a local hero to a degenerate cop prowling the streets for druggies to bust and money for the bills, Deck Stein didn't have much to look forward to in life. But after an average night of collection, Deck found himself in possession of a smiling teddy bear, stained by the elements. An everyday teddy, one found on shelves all around town. The only thing that separated this bear from the rest was a lovingly attached paper tag, a messily written name spraying across the front.

"Emily Remington"

When she loses her brother to a faceless mastermind, Emily Remington, daughter of a fallen empire, is forced to play her scripted part for fear of losing the one she held dearest. 

But to trade her brother's life for ten others, ten people who have a life, a family of their own to protect; to risk everything she had ever strove to build up after her family's collapse for a sliver of a chance to see her dearly departed brother again...

**Unedited** "She can't come to the phone right now. I'll be happy to take a message for you." My blood runs cold. "Where is she? What have you done to her?" He doesn't say anything and I don't hear her. I start to panic. "Nothing, yet." "If you touch her-" "What Luke?!" He cuts me off. I bite my lip and pass my hand through my hair. "What could you possibly do to me that you haven't already done?!" My eyes starts to water. This lunatic would hurt her and I knew he would. "I beg you," I tell him. "I'll do anything you want. Just leave her be. I'll meet you wherever you want. Take me, please, just leave her out of this." I hear Jasmen crying. "See, but where would all the fun be in that? I could smack you around, take away your fancy cars, and you'd be fine. But if I do this-" I hear Jasmen screaming again. What the hell was he doing to her?
