Do you have enough heart to kill for people you love?

As kids Genavie, Traci, and Ma’Shawn vowed to have each other’s back and formed a group called, Da Sistahood. A friendship bonded by togetherness, trust, undying love, support, and respect.

“Nuttin’ But Death Can Depart Us” was their slogan.

Now that they are teenagers men, sex, lies, drugs, and deadly secrets have threaten their once unbreakable friendship. Genavie decides she will do whatever it takes to protect Da Sistahood and the man she loves. Even if means leaving a couple of dead bodies along the way. Genavie always thought growing up in Watts, CA was hard as hell, until she is forced to make a deadly decision between C-Note and the Da Sistahood. The only catch is this decision can only be solved with her 9mm being cocked for the last time.

Timothy “C-Note” Thompson was born the son of a drug kingpin and a Crip. Forced to assume his fathers’ role, he becomes a notorious drug kingpin. A Crip sanctioned to live in a Blood neighborhood is catch-22.  C-Note’s only priority is making money and staying alive, until he kisses Genavie, his newest cohort sister. Plagued by their age gap, they agree to surreptitiously rendezvous and never enlighten a soul, apart from C-Notes’ right hand man, Richie Rich.

Traci’s mother is broke with her back up against the wall, and needs a fix, and her daughter, Traci “Teezer” Williams, becomes her only option. At fourteen-years-old, Traci refuses to be her mother’s personal sex ATM anymore. Therefore, she hooks-up with Suicide and he shows her how to make fast money.

Life for Ma’Shawn “Gravy” Quinn appears perfect from the outside. However, her life is diminishing.  Forced to reside with her racist grandparents after the death of her father, because they believe her mother is on drugs. Ma’Shawn becomes unraveled and her deepest apprehension is becoming Traci. She decides not to tell Da Sista Hood about her deepest fear. Instead, she turns to her boyfriend Richie Rich, who provides a secure haven for her to breathe.
