Assassin Quote by Stephani Hecht
““All the air seemed to leave Andrew’s lungs as a heavy dash of fear slammed into him. While Shane may be like a brother to him and Owen, to anybody else, he was a deadly assassin. If Shane went after Vapor, one or both of them would end up dead. Either option would devastate Andrew.””
