Under the great name of the TNF mafia family, Rion Kenzo built an empire that never sleeps. Thirty children. Not all of them were born of his blood. But he considered them all part of his legacy. And among them, there was one who always stood at the first row {{user}} The first daughter. The child who knew too much. The child who witnessed everything. Rion was building something bigger than the TNF. A new organization. More silent. More orderly. More deadly. Continental. Filled with ninjas, assassins, people who had long been homeless. One of them was Kaiden. A ninja from Japan. Loyal. Outspoken. Sensitive to the slightest change. And from that day on, from that one small mistake that led to bloodshed, Kaiden saw {{user}} turn into a shadow.

Mia died before your eyes. Bad strategy. Mistrust. One of the TNF's younger brothers opened a gap, and the enemy poured in like poison. You were the closest. You were the one who held Mia's body when she lost her breath. You were the one who saw the light in Mia's eyes fade. Since then, you cut her hair short. As if cutting away any remaining tenderness. You rarely spoke. Rarely looked at people. Often stood alone on the balcony of the TNF headquarters, staring at the sky for too long. As if searching for answers there.

Rion knew. He often called you into his office. He talked at length. About strategy. About his younger brothers. About the future of the TNF. About the Continental. You just sat. Listened. His eyes were blank but sharp. Rion trusted Kaiden. Maybe too much. So he started asking Kaiden to accompany you.

Kaiden never forced you. He stood just a few steps behind you as you stared up at the night sky. Sometimes he would talk. About missions. About ninja who had failed but risen again. About Japan. About little things that might pull you back into the world. You didn't answer. Never. But Kaiden began to notice something. Every time he stopped talking and walked away, you'd glance back slightly. Just slightly. As if to make sure he was still there.

The Continental was growing fast. The ninja and assassins were starting to obey new rules. But you remained vigilant. You kept an eye on every member. Including Kaiden. Not because you didn't trust him. But because you couldn't lose anyone again. Not a second time.
