==Biography==
===Prologue===
One fine day, Henry is tasked by spotter Marino to strike a "terrorist" aboard a bullet train. He informs Henry about a girl blocking the way, but she walks away and Henry fires, killing the "terrorist".
Disillusioned with killing, Henry plans to retire and meets boat manager Danielle Zakarweski and reconnects with Del Patterson, a close friend of his. He claims the man he killed before was innocent meaning that someone might have spiked his papers. Henry has his friend arrange a meeting with Yuri Kovacs. In retaliation for Henry knowing their deception, his former agency plans to kill him while Clay Varris, head of a top-secret black ops unit codenamed "GEMINI", wants to go after Henry, but is denied the request.
Henry and Danny become then become friends. One day, Henry's house was targeted by assassins and Marino is killed. Henry warns Danny about the attack and they manage to kill the assassins sent after them, learning the agency wants them dead. Henry also asks various people about Marino's death.
===Mystery of the clone===
Henry and Danny travel east to meet Henry's former colleague Baron and make an appointment with Yuri before flying to Catargena. Clay sends his top ranked assassin to duel with Henry. The younger assassin flees to GEMINI and choses not to take a training session while the older one arrives at a safehouse. The younger one is revealed to be Clay's adopted son Junior. Curious about his similarities to Henry, Junior is ordered to retire Henry.
Henry is puzzled by his similarities to the younger assassin, whom Danny suggests might be his child, though Henry claims he isn't married. Testing DNA samples recovered from Junior, Danny discovers that his and Henry's DNA are identical, meaning that Junior is in fact Henry's younger clone.
Henry, Danny, and Baron later go to Budapest on an appointment with Yuri Kovacs. Yuri reveals that the man that Henry killed in the beginning was a scientist working for GEMINI. He tried to cowardly flee from the United States with the project and didn't come back despite multiple baits and also found a way to make clones with neither pain nor emotion. Henry also notices that he was conned since he didn't expect Junior to be his successor as his father said.
Henry calls Jack in a plot to redeem Junior and prevent him from being abused and also calls the head of his former agency, who agrees to send Junior to bring Danny safely back to the United States. Junior goes to the museum to set up a trap for Danny, who informs Henry via a covert listening device hidden in her tooth.
Henry arrives and tells Junior that he is a clone, asking him of any shared traits. Henry and Junior fight while Henry is reluctant to let anyone, including Danny, shoot and kill Junior even at the last minute. Henry and Danny leave for Baron and Junior returns to GEMINI to expose his "father"'s abuse and lies, foreshadowing his betrayal and defection, despite claiming that he is better than Henry.
===Final skirmish and epilogue===
Baron takes them to Georgia to look for GEMINI. Junior stalks Henry and near-fatally shoots him with a dart spiked with bee venom while finding a truck. Junior symphathetically injects Henry with epinephrine before they get on a truck with Danny and Baron. At the same time, Henry removes a microchip that ties him to GEMINI.
The two drive to GEMINI. Clay tells Junior to get out of Henry's car, but Junior defies his words. Because of this, Henry, Junior, Danny, and Baron were stopped by Clay and his forces. Baron is killed by a flamethrower at the truck. Henry and Danny disarm two GEMINI operatives and Henry tells Danny to watch her ammo count and eliminates the rest while Junior fights with Clay on the rooftop where Junior knocks him unconscious.
With one round remaining, they gets ambushed by Senior, a clone that doesn't feel pain or emotion and Clay, who has regained consciousness. Henry, Junior, and Danny fight the clone and manage to defeat him. Henry unmasks the clone and discovers that he looks similar to Junior. Clay tries to justify his actions to the team, but Junior attempts to kill him for his lies and abuse. However, Henry takes the gun from Junior and uses it to kill Clay, avenging the deaths of Marino and Baron.
Afterwards, Henry helps treat Del's alcohol addiction. Six months later, Henry enrolls Junior, now named Jackson Brogan after his mother's maiden name, into college and applies for his IC, passport, and driver's license.
