When someone gets shot in the head it tends to drastically change a few things about them. True, the most common change would be that of changing from being alive to being dead, but sometimes they'll get lucky and only walk away with a little bit of permanent brain damage.

I just so happens to be one of the 'lucky' ones.

After a near-death experience as a child, I was left almost completely devoid of emotion. Personally, I was fine with it. True, that might just be the apathy talking, but the way I see it, emotions only get in the way.

After all, when you're the designated sniper in a successful team of mercenaries, your job is simple: Shoot your targets and get paid. It's even easier when you're practically incapable of feeling remorse for your actions. Some may consider it to be a morally questionable occupation, but I don't mind. It's stable, predictable, and it gives me purpose.

When things don't go according to plan however, matters tend to become a bit more complicated...
