Ariel Mackenzie is a tough and resilient woman who has always put her son, Jason, first, she could even go up the sky and pluck the moon for him. But when the assassin organization she works for demands the head of Jason's father, Vincent, Ariel is faced with a difficult decision, should she risk her future relationship her child, or save it by not completing the mission, which has dire consequences. Going back to her hometown did not only open up old wounds but it created new ones, secrets that were meant to be kept in the dark were brought to light, betrayals were made and and some relationships were broken.
"Pumpkin do as he says." Vincent told her when he spotted something, "But-" Ariel wanted to protest but he shook his head telling her no, he was right, she didn't even have a plan. Her poor babies.
"Fine." Ariel said sighing, "Drop your guns." The man ordered again and this time she turned to look at Vincent but he just nodded at her and both of them threw their guns to the floor.
"Now, watch as your children die before your very eyes." The man laughed with his hand on the trigger, Ariel's eyes widened with disbelief as a gunshot rang out.
---------------
"Are you insane?!" Ariel hollered as the man's head fell to the ground with blood spewing everywhere.
"He is the one that shot the gun." Kitanna shrugged putting her sword back in the sheathe.
The children's eyes were still closed but their clothes were stained with blood that came from the man.
