The Fable
Fable is a legendary hitman in the organized crime world—the kind of killer who can take someone out in six seconds flat. After six years of building his reputation, his boss decides he's gotten too hot for the authorities and orders him into hiding in Osaka for a year. He goes with his driver, who poses as his sister, under one strict condition: he has to act like a normal person and can't kill anyone, or both of them die. What should've been an easy break turns messy fast. Takeshi Ebihara, second-in-command of the local yakuza faction that's supposed to be protecting Fable, views him as a liability instead. Seeing Fable as a threat to his own position, Takeshi starts setting traps and putting the assassin in constant danger. Now Fable has to use his wits to survive Takeshi's schemes while keeping his hands clean—no small feat for someone whose whole skill set revolves around killing people.
