[He entered a certain room and found a woman. The woman was startled when she reized him.]
"Rex, if your name es up, you're already dead."
[He said to reassure the woman.]
[He tossed the woman a gold , his payment, befivihe bullet. He looked out the window and saw some stru workers w in another building.]
"We retly lost our members. We would like to know where the traitets his ammunition."
[The woman began to ihe bullet.]
"It's ."
"Meaning?"
"It's untraceable. The person you are looking for is very clever..."
[But a sed before she finished her sentence, a bullet pierced her head, instantly ending her life.]
[Mr. X looked out the window and realized that the stru workers were actually hired killers. They began firing bullet after bullet.]
[The Fraternity's greatest assassin dodged the bullets and escaped their sight. However, he had no iion of running away.]

Ring Ring*
[The situation didn't bother him. Mr. X noticed that a cell phone was ringing in the pocket of one of the corpses. Mr. X answered the call, knowing who the person oher end of the call was].
"Marcus, no one leaves the Fraternity alive."
"I have a little perspective on the Fraternity."
"Careful, you 't destroy something that's been around for a thousand years. The Fraternity is not that simple, even the High Table 't take us lightly."
"It's already destroyed, Sloan broke the code."
"Really?"
"You know that."
"Why don't you front me yourself? Never send sheep to kill a wolf."
"They're bait."
[Suddenly, Mr. X realized his impending doom. He looked down and found that he had stepped on an X-mark. This meant that he had fallen into a trap.]
"Goodbye, Mr. X."
[Even a strong assassin like Mr. X could not escape the wrath. His head exploded as the non-manufactured bullet pierced his head.]
[The bullet came from a difficult pce. It bypassed a small space betweerains and flew for miles just to reach its target.]
[Oher side of the phone, Marcus (Willem Dafoe) had a bruise on his face as he pulled the trigger, killing Mr. X.]

[Wesley Gibson woke up to another b day. His cheating girlfriend nagged him early in the m.]
[Even his work was not that iing, especially when he khat his office buddy was the one banging his girlfriend. It didn't help that his fat boss also made fun of him.]
[His life was miserable. Even his inner monologue was filled with ive thoughts].
[He had an ay disorder, and his head a felt like they would explode whenever he experienced anything stressful. All he could do was take pills after muttering apologies to anyone who made his life miserable. Yes, Wesley was the "sorry" type.]
[Days went by and his life didn't get aer... What did he expect?]
[Wesley went to a pharmacy to buy the prescription that calmed him whenever he felt anxious.]
[But tonight, a woma for the first time would take him to another world he never expected].

[Wesley said to the woman standio him].
"You apologize too much."
"I, um, I'm sorry."
[The woman tio stare at him and Wesley felt unfortable].
"I knew your father."
[The atmosphere was awkward. He paid for his prescription before answering.]
"My father left the week I was born, so..."
"Your father died yesterday on the rooftop of the Metropolitan Building... Sorry."
[Wesley looked at the woman before chug. This robably a joke, he thought].
"Look, the booze is over there, so if you..."
"Your father is the greatest assassin who ever lived. And the man who killed him is right behind you."

[Wesley caught a glimpse of Marcus before the ushed him behind the grocery shelves.]
[Marcus and the woman shot at each other at the same time and their bullets collided. The Fraternity had a strong trol over their bullet trajectories, their mastery of firearms might be better than anyone's.]
[The woma shooting, and Marcus deflected the bullets with his bullets as well. It might seem like everything happened in slow motion, but the truth was far from that. The two of them were just strong and fast.]
[Wesley uood that the situation was dangerous. Obviously, he wao run and leave them behind].
[As he ran for the exit, he noticed that Marcus was staring at him. Marcus tried to...]
