Chief Sanchez enlists his top detective and long-time friend, Guerrero, to find his son and bring him safely home. The Chief tells no one else his son is missing in the hopes Guerrero can locate him quickly, and he can avoid any media attention.
Robbie knows being part of the gang is wrong – yet it feeds the rebellious anger he feels toward his father – and he can’t seem to leave.
While being initiated into the gang, Robbie is involved in a liquor store robbery that goes awry when an off-duty cop appears from the store’s bathroom. The cop also happens to be Robbie’s kick-boxing coach – a man who has been more of a father-figure to Robbie in the past few years than his own father. A shoot-out erupts between the gang members and the cop. Robbie is shot and wounded, and the off-duty cop is killed from multiple gun shots.
The gang members flee the robbery scene with a badly wounded Robbie bleeding across the back seat of the car. The gang wants to dump Robbie at the emergency entrance of a nearby hospital but Robbie resists. He knows if he’s dropped there, his father will find him. And he doesn’t want to be found.
The gangbangers take Robbie to one of their cousins who is studying to be a doctor. The cousin insists Robbie go to the hospital to have the bullet removed, but again Robbie refuses. The cousin is unwilling to remove the bullet without the proper surgical equipment, which appears to be lodged near Robbie’s kidney. He does his best to clean the wound, leaving the bullet inside – and stitches Robbie up.
For three days Robbie is plagued with burning fever, intense delirium – and he nearly dies. T secretly takes care of him, wiping away the sweat and keeping him comfortable. Somehow Robbie pulls through and awakens from the sweat-fevered state. His body has defeated the deadly infections. But the vision of his coach’s murder snaps him back to his terrible reality. Robbie’s conscience and morality return to him and he decides he must leave the gang but a big hit is happening that night – a robbery on a large walmart-type store – and something tells him there is a reason he needs to be there. During the robbery, a security guard appears on the scene and Slice is ready to shoot him down. Robbie intervenes to prevent the murder. When Slice punches Robbie, near his wound, something unusual and amazing occurs. Unbeknownst to Robbie, the very tip of the bullet inside him is lodged directly against his adrenal gland. When pressure is applied, the metal of the bullet’s tip induces an EXTREMELY HIGH CONCENTRATION of adrenaline – the world’s most powerful drug – which courses through Robbie’s body, giving him abnormal strength and super-human abilities. There have been many accounts of people exhibiting incredible feats of strength in times of emergency due to the release of adrenaline – and Robbie’s “shot in a million” reacts with his body in a never-before-seen medical miracle.
