Shoot first, ask questions never.
Chess Harlow is a man without many purposes. Wake up, and compete in a Blood Running tournament- a worldwide Battle Royale phenomenon where the last one standing, in the end, walks home with the glory and a massive cash prize- and not much else. He sits in his house and stares at walls, wears the same clothes day in and day out, and only has one friend he can really count on, Bijou Williams. However, Bijou doesn't do Blood Running anymore and Chess is truly all alone with himself and his thoughts. That is until an old flame comes back to town to ruin everything.
Damon Kennedy, Chess's ex-lover and now sworn enemy, is back in town and hunting him down for one reason and one reason only. To get Chess to compete in the World Royale and settle a long-lost debt both of their fathers had during their prime in the Blood Running scene.
Chess has to make a decision: face his past demons and compete to silence Damon once and for all, or continue to live in the purgatory that is his life until he passes away.
