Just a Hired Gun

by The Informant
On the outside, Keith is a cold blooded contract killer who would gladly trade one's life for a sum of cash. On the inside, however, he's a lost soul crying out for help. One fatal wound later, his call might finally be answered...

Among those who knew him, there are many Words that would describe Keith as a human being. "Merciful" was not one of them. He is a cold blooded contract killer who would gladly trade one's life for a sum of cash. It didn't matter how old or young, just how much he was getting paid.

Of course, this was only on the outside. On the inside, he is a completely different person. A person full of regret, remorse, and depression. He's a lost soul crying out for help, begging for release from his miserable mistake of a life.

One fatal wound later, his call might finally be answered… Just not in the way he wanted.
