Un seul dicton pour résumer notre état d’esprit : Œil pour œil, dent pour dent. Chaque coup donné sera rendu. Quel qu'il soit, qu'importe le temps écoulé. Une seule loi à respecter : aucune pitié. Les armes ne sont pas égales... Mais d'ailleurs, l'ont-elles déjà été ? Un seul mot d'ordre à écouter : ne réfléchis point et fonce dans le tas. Les guerriers que nous sommes ne pardonnent pas. Nous n'avons pas le droit à l'erreur, nous avons des règles à intégrer, des personnes à protéger, des êtres chers à venger. Règle n°1 : agis comme le Cobra que tu es.

Soit t'y nais et tu te bats, soit t'y crèves. La drogue, les armes sont mon quotidien. Tout est une question de calculs, de fric, de choix. Un contrat signé : tuer l'autre pour de l'argent. Facile, tellement fait et refait que ça sera rapide. Mais cette fois-ci, la nana à liquider me plaît. Son nom ? Amyliana.
