Vein.Episode Description:
While on a HCLI-owned cargo ship en route to Africa from Dubai, Jonah watches Lutz and Renato "R" Socci test fire a XM8 rifle when Koko is informed that her older brother Kasper Hekmatyar will be arriving to see her from another HCLI-owned cargo ship. When William "Wilee" Nelson is instructed to take Jonah away by teaching him a grammar lesson, the latter heads to the restroom to relieve himself. However, Kasper heads to the restroom as well where Jonah attempts to kill him, but Kasper's bodyguard Chequita stops Jonah and disarms him. Three months ago in Western Asia, Jonah was a child soldier in an infantry base where he took care of four orphans. He later learned that Malka, one of the orphans, died being used as a human probe to clear a path filled with land mines, sending him on a rampage and killing everyone in the base, including an arms dealer named Yusuf Gasud. Jonah is soon surrounded and disarmed by Chequita, and Kasper later told Jonah that Malka was sacrificed to build a road for profitable reasons. Jonah was then locked up in an empty cargo container for days. In the present, Koko makes Kasper leave her ship after hearing about what happened in the restroom, having to apologize to Jonah for this. A few days later, Jonah wanders to the crow's nest of the ship, recalling that Kasper, who was responsible for selling weapons that killed Jonah's parents, promised to send the orphans to Japan to live peaceful lives in exchange that Jonah would become one of Koko's bodyguards in Europe.
