LOGLINE- A mysterious boy is on the run after having his identity found out, will he escape from the prospect of the evil hunters chasing him every second.

TREATMENT-A mysterious boy (Kenneth Michaels) has had his identity found out after committing a serious crime towards the county's most brutal gang members and their leader Emmanuel Adebayo after betraying them and robbing them of their earnings. He wakes up having been taken hostage by the gang. A sand bag Is pulled of his head and a man with a gun is stood there threatening him. Kenneth sees Adebayo walking off and ordering the man to kill him. Kenneth then catches him off guard and tackles him before running out into the fields. He luckily misses a bullet shot from the leader and manages to escape. When he escapes he finds himself in the city where he seeks refuge for the night. He meets a girl called Nicki Jeffries who was concerned at first but allows him to stay at her house. 


In the morning, the gang comes to kill Kenneth. He senses this when the dog has disappeared from the house which is "not normal" as Nicki explained. Kenneth tells Nicki to take cover in the basement. He shoots a flammable barrel to distract them before fleeing into the near by woods where he picks them of one by one using a compact MP5 with laser sight he picked up when fleeing from them the day before. He captures one and interrogates him "where is your leader" but the man quickly bleeds to death from a bullet wound.

Back at gang headquarters they discuss the assassination attempt against Kenneth failed. Meanwhile in Nicki's house Kenneth explains it is too dangerous to follow or stay at her location. thankfully her friend is nearby to pick her up and take her to safety. The following day, he visits the bank and retrieves the large amounts of assorted currencies stashed as his life savings which he now must use to ever get rid of the gangsters. Taking all the money he leaves in search of the patriot leader.

Spotting a gang vehicle he places a tracker on the under side of the vehicle to identify the location of the gangs headquarters. Kenneth breaks in and holds the gang leader Adebayo and two other members at gunpoint. He kills them and leaves, fighting his way out through more gang members. Some time later Kenneth finds Nicki renting out boats to tourists in Hawaii and the two reunite.
