Yiu

<<<  Index  >>>

Yiu was a highly trained assassin, a so called deadly mercenary. She is very skillfully, has the most sophisticated equipment and lots of luck. There are two reasons why shy took this job. One, a girl got to do something an two, Yiu is in constant need for money. 
She has a little brother Ji-A. The boy is sick, very sick. There re not many parts in his body that function properly. And his treatment cost, you guessed it,  much money, too much money. Although it is impossible for a girl like Yiu to lay hands on such an amount of cash, she is determined to somehow do so. 
But it is not an easy task, in this rotten  world of her...
As is written, nation rose against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. The last kingdoms fell. Chaos, anarchy, nbc warfare. viruses, the ultimate warriors,  started to rule the world, multinationals lost the grip on economics and killer dugs swept through the decaying cities.
But mankind fought back and by 2166 a new order was established, a new religious order, a new Jerusalem. In de old world science, religion and politics always had struggled for power, but in the new order there was no such problem. Religion had taken total control. Power, knowledge and the future were now synonymous for prophecy. Their god was the price of darkness, their path the road to apocalypse. As could be expected, this new order was no guarantee for peace... the divine rulers in the monstrous cathedrals were corrupt to the bone and had a complete disgust for their sheep, for the little men. The religious orders needed their armies.
