Chapter One: The Last Escape

On a dark and stormy night, John Hugo stood on the threshold of his quiet country house in America, contemplating the angry sky. The wind was blowing through the trees, as if carrying with it echoes of the past that John tried to forget. A former ninja, he is a skilled warrior who fled his clan in Japan after discovering the corruption and betrayal that seeped into her heart.

He has built a new life here, away from violence and blood, with his wife Emma and son Kai. But the clan did not forget or forgive. And that night, The Killers arrived, like black shadows creeping in the dark, determined to take revenge.

While John was getting ready for bed, he felt something unusual. His sharpened senses were alerting him to danger. And suddenly, the windows burst with a hail of arrows. "They're here," he whispered to himself. He knew that this night could be the last for him and his family if he did not act quickly.

As events unfold, John finds himself forced to confront his past and use his old skills to protect his loved ones and end the organization that betrayed him. But, can one man stand up to an entire clan.

The night of Destiny The air smelled of blood and gunpowder. John Hugo stood in the center of the living room, staring at the smashed doors and broken windows. His family was gathering behind him, trembling with fear and cold. Emma, his brave wife, was hugging Kai, their little son, trying to silence his crying. John said in a hoarse voice, clutching his old sword that he hadn't taken out in years. He knew that the organization would not stop until she saw him dead: "Don't worry, I'll protect you no matter what," Suddenly, a group of masked ninjas rushed inside, like Swift shadows. A fierce fight began, and John was moving at lightning speed, repelling blows and throwing punches. But the enemy was a lot, and every ninja who fell, was replaced by two. At a crucial moment, one of the killers managed to deliver a serious blow to John, inflicting a deep wound on him. John fell to his knees, looking at his family fighting for survival. However, the brute force of the organization was too much to bear. And in the end, after hours of desperate fighting, John was surrounded by corpses, and his family had fallen. Tears were falling from his eyes, not from pain, but from grief over the loss of loved ones. However, there was a spark of anger glowing in his eyes. He knew that he had to get up again, not just for revenge, but for justice. Thus, John's real journey began, a journey of revenge and penance, which will lead him to the depths of darkness and beyond.
