Agent 47 VS Aiden Pearce

History
Having moved from Ireland to the United States to supposedly get away from his father, Aiden Pearce has lived most of his life in Chicago, Illinois. He is a professional hacker who has free access to the Central Operating System (ctOS) and uses it to control anything connected to it as well as gain access to anyone's details. Aiden used this to siphon bank accounts from innocent people in a hacking of the Merlaut Hotel in 2012. Subsequently, the owner, Dermont Quinn, sent hits out to Aiden and his accomplice in the job, Damien Brenks, in an attempt to get them into submission. Later on, during a drive with his nephew and niece, Jackson and Lena respectively, the hitman Maurice Vega shot his car, causing it to roll upside down and inevitably crash, killing Lena. This incident made Aiden set out against the powers that be of Chicago for revenge.
