My code name is Aries. The stars say I'm aggressive, dominant, first in line to lead.

The stars aren't wrong.

Zodiac Tactical is my company. It's run by those I've chosen for their skills and ability to outmaneuver adversaries. We guard, protect, rescue...assist on the side of the angels.

We eliminate the threat when nobody else can.

My pastime of putting bad guys out of business has created powerful enemies, but I've always made sure there was nothing in my life I couldn't live without.

Until now. Until her.

She's not a warrior, she's an artist. She sees colors everywhere and greets the world-and me-with a smile. I knew I shouldn't come near her from the beginning, but she's everything I've never been able to be.

And now a monster has taken her, caged her, to get even with me.

My code name is Aries. And I will burn the world to the ground to get her back.
