This is Lucy.
Background
The story is set in a dystopian future. Lucy is a street kid from Detroit who was scouted by a spy organization in her late teens to become a spy/assassin. She excelled in a series of mission all over the world, until one in South America went horribly wrong, result in the deaths of many civilians and fellow agents. (I haven't decided yet if she was actually responsible or used as a scapegoat.) At the start of the story, Lucy has been incarcerated in harsh conditions for three years.
Story (For a 5-minute motion comic)
An agent and friend of Lucy's from their early training days has been caught and imprisoned by an enemy government. Lucy is given the chance to clear her record by recovering her friend, but only if she gets him out alive. She knows, as told in a flashback, that if she tries to escape, that she will be tracked down and killed. Wanting to get her life back, she accepts the assignment. Her past is revealed in a series of flashbacks as she prepares and starts off on her mission. She makes her way into the compound where her friend is kept, but find that he's already been killed. She's lost her opportunity to redeem herself with the organization, and so decides to take her chances and goes on the run.
