Chapter One: JAKE

There is no true winner. Only fear. Only cowardice.
And only one way out.
--------

Chess, the ancestor's game. Which of them thought it would be a good idea to model society off its pieces, Jake would never know. If he had a time machine, he'd use it to throw every chessboard into a fire.
Because now the world was ruined and no matter how many rebellions he led, nothing worked.

So he quit.

But a determined young woman set on finding the mysterious killer within the Rebellion isn't about to let him. Do they hate each other? Yes. Will she give up on him?

Not a chance.
