Introduction
"The weak dies in the hands of the strong. My nemesis may die but I'll live. I'll live because I am strong." - Avery Collins xx An exhausted teenager was sleeping on the bench of a bus stop when a huge noise suddenly wakes her. Fear crept under her skin when she saw masses of people running on the streets, pushing each other. BANG! Bombs and bullets rained in all directions. Blood graced the cemented streets. Dead bodies of people lay in every corner like debris. San Francisco is under a terrorist attack. The teen made a run for her life and tried to escape death. She was Avery Collins, an 18-year-old US citizen. Abandoned by her assassin father at a young age, she swore that her life's mission was to find him – to answer lifelong questions that haunted her everyday. Why did he train me to become a fighter? Why had he then disappeared? As the United States of America slowly collapsed behind her, Avery begins to uncover secrets that will change the course of her life forever – the truth about Jacob Collins, the status of her country, the thing about ARMOR and the real identity of the US President.

Chapter

March 2011

Sacramento, California, USA - 38.5816*N, 121.4944*W

Turning away from the group you pledged loyalty to, is hard; but leaving someone you love is harder.

Jacob heaved a deep sigh of angst as he ran his golden-brown Mercedes into the far end of Sacramento. With reluctance in his heart, he gripped the steering wheel tight and drove fast. He needed to leave this town before the sun would die down on him.

This is the beginning of death.

Anyone who turned their back on ARMOR will die and Jacob is ready for that. However, he can't die without a fight. He swore to destroy them. He will kill all of ARMORs key people and disciples. Guns will spit words of anger; blood will grace underground.

The reason he abandoned her is to protect her against the terrorist group. ARMOR didn't know he had a daughter, so Jacob decided to disown her. The farther they are from each other, the better. She will start a new life, continue school, graduate in a prestigious University, have a decent job and will work in an office with tiled floors and a good air-conditioner.

Zing!

Jacob snapped out of his thoughts when his phone vibrated. He opened it and shock registered across his face to receive a text from an unknown sender which said:

I never knew the girl could fight.

"Dammit!" Jacob lost control of the steering wheel and swerved the car to the right by mistake. He hit a lamppost; his body lurched forward and his head crashed into the windshield. Blood dripped from his forehead but Jacob doesn't feel any pain, only fear of the impending disaster.

ARMOR found my house. They had my daughter. They will definitely kill her.

Jacob was having second thoughts now. He wanted to save her but there's only one way to win.

Don't look back.

He started the engine and began his journey to vengeance.
