Dominic Lombino dressed in a very strange armor with a helmet over his head and visor blocking his face completely. As he walked down the street he noticed a convenience store. It was late the sun was just setting and Dominic switched his visor to a night vision setting. He realized he was thirst so he reached into his pocket to see how much money he had on him. Feeling nothing he grunted.

'Shit. I would be out of change. Ill guess I will just get some.' he chucked under his helmet.

As Dominic looked through the window of the store he noticed one man at the counter. He looked at his wrist band and pushed a button and a screen popped up with blinking lights. Nodding at the screen he closed it and slide his hand down his leg to his blaster. His other blaster was already drawn. Then Dominic shot through the window and jumped in while the glass shards where dropping. Pointing one blaster at the clerk and other up waiting for another target.

"Give me the money in the register now."Dominic shouted through his helmet sounding very raspy do to the helmets voice lock.

"What the fuck are you?" The clerk shouted back shaking.

"If Id tell you Id have to kill you. Now stop talking and fork over the money." Dominic agitated now tapping the trigger.

The clerk paused for a second.

In that second of indecision the clerks choice is taken away from him. A young man with his hat pulled low over his eyes pulls a .44 and tips back the hammer. in his other hand is a small but leathel knife.

"Nice try Lombino, but your in the worng store. this one is MINE! I've been working prepping for this for to long for you to ruin my plan now. Walk away and I won't have to make this any harder then needed.

The one gun still pointed at the clerk and the other quickly pointed at Melien. Tapping both triggers feeling trigger happy.

"Melien. Don't tempt me Im aggitated and really wanting some money for drinks. You get out of the way." Grunting it out.

"Ha-rhumph. Aggitated. your hands are shaking you couldn't hit me if you fired from Inside my head. and if drink is all your looking for, theres a nice little liquor store down the street that you can swipe a drink from. this is my spot and you'll have to work for it."

quick as he speaks, Melian fired off a quick shot, missing dominic but hitting the clerk in the arm. As the man falls to the floor in shock, Melian dives behind a display of food, popping up to take another quick shot.

Shocked that his fellow family member would fire a shot at him. Letting go of his anger focuses both blaster on Melien. Opening fire one the display of food. Red bolts of light are firing from the gun. He backs up continuing to shoot. As he gets closer to the register so he can grab the cash and go.

"You asked for it kid." More red bolts shot from his blasters.

RED BULLETS. What the Fuck was dominic using. melien was damned if he was gonna let lombino use them on him.

"you still haven't learned to shoot straight have you lombino? i told you 'keep training' i said 'in a real fight, you'd be fucked' i said. i guess you didn't listen."

Melien fred off two shots, then two more, emptying his gun. none of the bullets impacted lombino, but his last shot took out one of the guns. now, as he reloaded, melien was at least comefortable they were on an even footing.

Very displeased with his blaster he chucks it at Melien missing. Dominic bashes the register as it flings open he fills his pocket with some cash then figures he will deal with this little problem. He holsters his blaster and runs toward Melien. He jumped up on to the display and over it tackling Melien to the ground. Wrestling him to the ground.

melien does not miss dominic's little manuver with the register. the flying gun has missed because he deflects it, losing his own in the process. as lombino rushes him he rememberes the dagger he carries. melien only barely has time to get the dagger out and into position before lombino crashes into him, the stupid armor he always wore allowing him to bear melien down.

meliens wrist is caught in dominic's grip as they fall, but melien manages to drive the knife into lombino's hip, only to have it bounce off the bone, partially deflected bythe armor.

as melien pulls back to try again he hears the unmistakable sound of a siren.

shit, that will put a cramp in things

The cut triggered a memory of his days of training with his grandpa Drom Lombino before he left for Earth. His grandpa was using a sword and sliced his hip as he fell to the ground his grandpa said.

"Dominic remember your trainning your a warrior. You never give up for anything."

His mind cleared and noticed Melien was standing up Dominic took his boot and kicked hard onto the back of his knee causing him to fall in pain. Dominic stood up quickly and drew his gun placing it at Meliens head.

"You mother fucker." he said clinching the gun.

oh son of a bitch. now what?

"ok man, not so hasty. you know what the boss will say if i turn up dead. someone will see you and the boss will find out."

melien settles back with his hands up until he has a clear feeling of where the gun is, just as he prepares to make his move, three cops, with guns drawn, step into view.

"hey, you. put the gun down."

Dominic still focused on Melien he turned his gun and point at the cops. Firing once nailing the cop in the head. Firing twice hitting the cop in the chest the third one he missed. Ducking out of the way of his bullets.

"Now look what you have gone and done Melien." crouched under the shelves.

"hey, you were the first guy to wave a gun around."

melien has retrived his gun and starts shooting at the last cop, pinning him down as melien moves away from dominic to flank the cop.

"so, what fancy-ass trick are you going to use now?"

Nodding his hole helmet moves with him. He opens a part of his pouch and pulls out a little ball and presses down on it. Throws it over the shelves at the officer. The officer looked down at it and walked over to it picking it up. Studing it starts to glow and explodes causing a huge blast. The cop gets thrown back through the window. Now looking at Melien.

"Ok. We'll split it 70, 30. Deal?" Laughing under his helmet.

"70-30? what the hell are you smoking?60-40 to me." my territory my money."

melien holsters his gun.

"ok, if we're gonna try to beat the shit out of each other for this then lets at least not kill each other. nothing more dangerous then knives."

Dominic picks up the register and throws it at Melien. Pulling out his cash counting at least a couple hundred.

"I got what I need just a couple hundred. You can have the rest there is a safe in the back room." stuffing the money back in his pockets.

He walks toward the window and looks out down the street noticing like a caravan of police cars coming.

"Better move quick Melien we are gonna have company soon." Gripping his blaster tightly.

As the cop cars come flying down the street suddenly a large armored van pulls into the middle of the road from an alleyway and stops blocking both lanes.  No sooner than Monty steps out of the van a loud crash is heard as several police vehicles crash into the van and are halted on the spot.  Monty grins as he removes some of the boxes of lead weight from the back and digs out several bags from the back seat then makes his way to the store.  He loads up two bags with several food and drink items then looks up at the two men battered as they were from fighting with each other and grinned.

"Well, looks like I wasn't the only one with a good idea tonight eh?"

Monty looks at the register for a second and shrugs as he walks off toward the safe in the back.

"You gents take care ya?"

Prophet crawled out from the wreckage of one of the cop cars, he was having a bad day. The drug dealer was bugged, the cops were tagging him for weeks, Prophet didn't see the man in the shadows when the deal was finished, well not until the man pounced onto him like a starving lion. Taken from behind Prophet didn't have much of a chance, a quick knock to the head put Prophet out for a good hour or so, Prophet had awoken in a cop car, not fun being a infamous mobster. The car along with what looked like an army of patrol cars was flying down the highway, civilians were forced to get out of the way in peak traffic.

The sirens gave a splitting head ache, but it didn't last long, soon the screech of ten patrol cars braking was all Prophet could here before the loud sound of cars crashing into what would have to of been a bullet proof van, and the screams of the pigs inside the cars shitting their pants was quite funny before the car Prophet was riding in hit the wreckage like a dart. Prophet was lucky just a couple of bruises, as Prophet scrambled out he had seen a convenience store. Prophet walked over with a slight limp, but he had managed to get into a jog and make good time in getting to the store.

As Prophet walked in he had seen three men two masked and one rather skinny man who had a few filled bags. Prophet smiled as he stuck his foot out tripping the man who was walking out leaving the other two men who were frozen into place. The man scrambled back to his feet quickly but Prophet had already grabbed the bags and made if off towards the parking lot looking for a car to jack. Prophet had smashed the window, this was going to be quick no need for finesse. Prophet had hot wired the car as fast as he could, he was driving out onto the road when another car had started up, the man who had tripped was at the wheel and the two men who were idly standing in the store before were in the passenger seats; The chase had begun.

Grinning and much more careful about his vehichle selection Monty hopped in a Preston Tucker Special he spotted on the side of the street and began to chase Prohpet down the road.  In a matter of a few blocks Monty was already quickly rushing up behind Prophet grinning as he reached for his rusty old K-Bar bayonet he'd kept from his time in the service and pulled up next to the man.  Shaking his head sadly he tossed the knife into the front left tire or Prophet's stolen car and pulled himself back to wait.  As Prohpet finally began to spin out of control Monty made his move quickly forward.  The moment the car finally crashed Monty was already on the site hopping from his car pistols drawn pointed at the man who already looked more battered than he should have been.

"Now now mate, if you wanted some food, all you had to do was ask, I'd have given you a bag to fill for yourself, but see, one of my kids really had his heart set on my special spaghetti and meat sauce and you just ran off with the last of the stores tomatoes, so I'm afraid I'll be needing those bags back."

back at the store, Melien and Dominic, bailing out as the car begins to move. he turns to dominic.

"now. where were we? oh yes, i belive we were fighting to see who the stronger fighter is. now, lets not kill each other. daddy kong would spank."

Melien jumps at dominic with both hands out attempting to bull him over.

Dominic caught off guard grabs Melien by the belt and launchs him over eile. Walking around it he pulls out a hilt to a sword and taps it on his leg. A blade extends from it. Laughing as he approaches Melien.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Tapping the blade on his boot.
