"When you think you know the truth... you'll realize you haven't even begun to understand the lies."

In a world where darkness devours innocence, the journey of "Shadow" begins—a boy of eight who loses everything on a blood-soaked, rainy night. An unknown gang storms his home, slaughtering his parents before his eyes. His life shifts from the warmth of family to the cold embrace of loneliness, left only with scars of the past and unanswered questions. As years pass, Shadow uncovers a truth far more twisted than he imagined, realizing that the shadows of his past conceal dark threads linking his family to the world of organized crime.

Torn between despair and the thirst for vengeance, Shadow embarks on a dangerous path to confront the enigmatic "Bloods Syndicate," the entity that shattered his world. Along the way, he crosses paths with outcasts who, like him, dwell on society’s fringes, forming the Mafia—a group that redefines loyalty and betrayal. Through brutal battles, intricate conspiracies, and internal struggles, his will is tested, and his humanity is pushed to its limits as he searches for meaning in a life lost between revenge and the fear of what lies ahead.

A gripping tale where raw emotions clash with electrifying events, raising profound questions about vengeance, justice, and the steep price we pay to live... or to die.

Mafia (The red eyes)

I made my way to the house of my old friend, David. He had been my closest companion before everything changed.

When I knocked on the door, he opened it almost immediately, his eyes widening in shock.

"Where have you been, man? And why are you here?"

I looked at him seriously. "Can I come in?"

"Of course, this is your home too."

I stepped inside and sat beside him. He bombarded me with questions about where I'd been and what had happened.

I had no choice but to tell him everything.

By the time I finished, David was stunned, struggling to process what he had just heard.

"And now… what do you plan to do?" he asked hesitantly.

I leaned forward, my voice steady. "I'm gathering people… people who will help me get revenge."

David's eyes widened. "Are you kidding? That's a crime! That's forming a gang!"

I cut him off. "Enough talk. Are you in or not?"

Without hesitation, David placed a hand on my shoulder and said, "I'm with you till the end, my friend."

David lived alone, away from his family, trying to be independent. That's why he had no one holding him back.

But we had a major problem—recruiting members.

Every person we brought in had to be an orphan, someone who had suffered through a cruel, lonely life. Only then would they understand our purpose.

David and I decided to search the streets for homeless orphans.

Wearing dark, shadowy clothing, we scoured the city. After hours of searching, we found no one.

By the time we met back at David's house, we had two recruits: Leo and Rio.

As we sat around the room, David pulled me aside, whispering, "Are you sure about this? These guys are drunks… and they're wanted by the cops."

I smirked. "Don't worry, David. They're with us, not against us."

David shook his head. "You've changed so much since your training, Shadow."

I ignored him and turned to our new members. "Alright, are you ready to hear the plan?"

Leo was dozing off, while Rio was disgustingly wiping his nose.

I clenched my fists and slammed the table. "Are you going to listen or not?!"

Both snapped to attention. "Fine, fine. What's the plan?"

We would rob a convenience store and a gas station in the city, take the money, and use it to buy small weapons from the black market.

David immediately tensed. "Are you insane?! We're stealing now?! What if we get caught?!"

I raised my voice. "That won't happen if you do everything right!"

I slammed my fist against the table again.

A sudden, violent knocking rattled the door.

Whoever was outside pounded on it hard, making the whole doorframe shake.
