One's Beginning Started by: JaceCorso on Nov 14, '18 04:53

A young man had just arrived on these shores holding closely his older brothers journal in his arms, not just cause it was a memory keepsake but because of recent events it was the only thing he had to explain where he was or why he was there. His name was Jace Corso, he had just arrived on a ship called "The Raza" while aboard an incident must have befell him because he had no previous memories and the only clues he had were this journal. Apparently he was sent for by his older brother who thought he was ready to take his place in a life of crime, though it seems he had barely been off the boat for an hour before he found out his brother had been gunned down during a take down. He knew from the journal he was originally from these lands but was sent away for........training? Whatever that meant but now he was back and apparently ready for this life except he had no where to go and just a list of names his brother said were good people to trust if the worst should happen to him.

 

The young man walked around learning the lay of the land before running to a place to have letters sent out to some of the people he was told to trust, he had to hope his brother had good character judgement or his life on these shores would be short while he tried to regain at least some of his memories.........

Upon being lucky enough for godfather JackMezzo to give Jace a starting point and a roof over his head to get a handle on his very out of control life Jace flew over to Philly to learn of his new surroundings and was greeted by another face that he was told to contact Isabella-Luciano who had told him she would help teach him the ways of life in this world. Looks like some of the contacts his brother had told him to reach out to had really come through thankfully.

 

He had barely begun to really get to know this new place when all of a sudden there was an alarm in the headquarters! There was an attack in Detroit and New York and they needed all able bodies to fight or protect, Jace however to young and inexperienced had to do more medial work such as preparing weapons, and ammo management as he was not quite ready or trusted yet to start using a weapon yet and had to help serve in other ways and keep an ear to the ground to see if he heard of any news on the attackers. Near the wars end when it was almost over and there were some casualties in the crew some of Jace's new friends were dead and he was called on to help protect some of their best marksman and he did so dutifully until the end of the war, upon the wars end Jace was happy to get some rest and was wondering what he had gotten himself into................

The next morning Jace was startled awake by two members of the crew waking him up. "Get up, get dressed and get to the bosses office now kid!" Jace was doing as told but freaking out he wondered what he could have possibly done wrong he'd only been here a few days  and didn't think he had managed to make a mess of things so fast, he hurried up getting dressed and ran down the hall to the office trying not to bump into anyone as he did.

 

Upon entering Jack's office he was greeted by Jack and KingOfMeatPopsicles, Jace had never met the king but had heard of him in his brothers journal they were relatively close friends. the king spoke first "Hello Jace I am KingOfMeatPopsicles I  was a friend of your brothers and am about to be the newest crime boss in the city we think it's a good idea if you go under me as one of my hands and you learn the ways of our life there and be an apprentice to myself. We're hoping you have some of the potential your brother had and can be an asset to the city with the right guidance and opportunity." Jack nodded and Jace gulped before speaking "I would of course be honored to work with the king and have a chance to step up and prove myself to the city, when do I leave?" The king laughed at the kids enthusiasm "We're heading out shortly pack what few belongings you have and meet me at the car kid." 

 

With that being said Jace ran back to his room and packed the small amount of things he'd accumulated into a sack and headed to the door and respectfully said goodbye to the people he had lived with the last few days. He got to the car and him and the king were off to Jace's new home where he would take a very hands on approach to learning how things worked out here........

Taking a rare break from the new opened King's Butcher Shop he had thankfully had time to spend time and visit his two best umm "friends?" he'd made since arriving to his new home which were the ferret Ellie, and the good boy Rubix he couldn't wait to share the big news of his apprenticeship to the King himself. He knew he wouldn't see Ellie till later she was more of a night time critter and just like to rest on his shoulder at night while he talked and fed her but he was hoping to go for a nice relaxing walk with Rubix. 

 

He found Rubix near the park and after their little lunch meeting the other day it seemed Rubix was more than happy to see him especially when he said walk as he ran and brought the leash. Rubix came off like it was his job to walk Jace which was okay with him as he felt these walks took away a lot of stress and he got to talk about anything he wanted with the good pup. There was something about him that he was so smart it was like he understood everything that was being said he particularly enjoyed when it seemed like the dog was telling him what to do. How strange that it seemed his two best friends were cute little critters....................

Rubix held the leash in his mouth as JaceCorso reminisced. It was a good thing the humans invented the leash so that humans could be encouraged to keep moving at a faster pace. It wasn't long before Jace was finally ready to walk, Rubix was already pacing back and forth, turning only when the leash hit its maximum length. JaceCorso continued to talk in his human language and Rubix could hear his stress and frustrations escaping. As quick as he told his stories, it was as if the weights were being lifted off his shoulders. Rubix was glad he could be a help to Jace; it was going to be a long trip to Philadelphia every morning to walk through the park but it was Rubix's job to go on walks, at least he thought it was. He thought to himself how funny it was that he had a long commute to his job of commuting. 

It was so cold that morning that all the humans were bundled up with big long coats, the sky was also a very dark color grey and all of the sudden, halfway through their walk, these little flakes of white powder started to fall from the sky. Rubix was not quite sure of them at first, he tried barking at them but they still persisted. They were starting to attack him, he was getting wet. He ran for the nearest park bench and stood under it, barking at each snowflake as it floated past him. 

WOOF WOOF WOOF

WOOF WOOF!

Jace enjoyed his walk with Rubix through the park in Philadelphia as always knowing that they may not get these as much with Rubix having moved and staked a claim in Chicago with Jace's other friend Ellie so this was an especially important walk. Jace tried to not to talk to much as Rubix himself seemed quite excited and important about moving and apparently being "off the leash" as it were running Chicago though Jace was curious how that would go he had no doubt Rubix was the right dog for the job. 

 

Jace watched as the snow started, he obviously knew of snow but due to his memory loss had no memory of it so he was a little excited and distracted when all of a sudden he hear barking. He looked down to see Rubix attempting to attack and defeat the invading white powder and when that didn't work he was barking and hiding under a bench while Jace was dragged with him. Jace managed to somehow keep himself from laughing though it was incredibly hard all he could think was Chicago was in for an interesting time under Rubix's leadership. Eventually they knew it was time for Rubix to head back to Chicago so Jace took him to the airport, Rubix barked, Jace said his farewells for the time being and asked Rubix to give a lick to Ellie for him and that he would try and come visit him in Chicago.

Jace descended from his flight and arrived at the airport he was so excited it was his first real trip to Chicago and at the airport waiting for him with a leash in his mouth was Rubix. Jace still didn't quite understand how Rubix and Ellie managed to mail him plane tickets and an invitation but he didn't question it, he'd said it before they were definitely not your normal animals. Jace ran up to Rubix and pet him and gave him a treat he got at one of the shops before picking up his end of the leash to let the pup lead the way. 

 

Jace had visited Chicago very briefly when he first arrived here hoping to rendezvous with his brother but upon hearing the news of his demise left fairly quickly so the city was a mystery to him he could only hope Rubix was as good a tour guide here as he was back in Philly. Jace was also hoping to see Ellie while here and see Rubix's operation he was so excited and still a tad puzzled how the dog was to run a criminal organization and was eager to see how was done.

Rubix lead Jace through Ruffington Lane, there was a large manor at the end with a nice pool and lots of animals. The rest of the city was still under construction and Rubix so looked forward to showing JaceCorso around the city when it was completed but Rubix needed another few days to get the city ready for the ribbon cutting ceremony, until then most of the city was still in need of repair. 

Rubix had a hired bartender, a french chef and an elderly butler to provide quite an evening for Jace in Chicago while he was getting the rest of the city ready. The bartender was serving drinks poolside but was stunned to see that JaceCorso had already jumped in the pool in all of his clothing. Rubix followed suit leaving Ellie concerned on the side of the pool.

Excitement coursed through the tiny ferret.  Jace…  Her dear friend Jace was coming here to Chicago to visit them!  Rubix had nudged her to follow him to the pool area.  He showed her what he wanted her to do, so she spent the time it took him to go get Jace cleaning up the area.  There wasn't much around, but she had wanted it to be absolutely perfect when their friend arrived!  So it was that she had squirreled away all the pool floaties and random items underneath the poolside furniture.  Honestly...  What did he expect from the ferret?  Ah well, it was clear that the little one had done her best, and only popped three of the pool toys with her sharp little teeth.  She would call that a win.

Well soon enough it came time for her friend to arrive.  Excitement caused the tiny one to tremble with absolute joy but she would wait patiently beside the pool.  She did pace a little, finding her nervous energy too much to handle.  But she would give the pool a wide berth, not really wanting to find herself submerged in the water.  Heck she'd get her lovely fur all wet and she couldn't have that, now could she?  

Just then she heard the car.  Perking up her ears, she looked over, stopping mid step with one paw raised.  Oh that just had to be them!  Dashing over to take a look, she turned out to be right!  Jace and Rubix!  Celebrating happily, she ran over to greet Jace, but as the man seemed to realize that this was to be a time of fun and swimming he would suddenly launch himself into the pool!  Oh goodness!  Ellie ran to the edge of the pool gazing down as she waited for the man to resurface.  At just that time, her dear Leader launched himself into the water right after him!  Squeaking in surprise as the water hit her in effort to part for the two that had just arrived, she skittered back from the edge watching with no small amount of concern.

The night was marvelous in Philadelphia. Debby Ryan was sitting on the curb, listening to some sirens in the distance while she drank a very cold beer. A couple was nearby talking, and she could not help but listen to the man who was commenting that Jace Corso would go to Chicago to spend some days with Rubix.

"It'd be interesting if I could go along. You never know what you might find on the way, and Jace definitely needs to be more careful and more protection," Debby thought as she walked into her mentor's office.

Stopping outside the door of the chief's office, she knocked and waited for him to enter. Jace who was near the door opened it and saw that it was Debby. He nodded for her to enter.

"Good evening, Mr. Jace. I know I'm new to the organization, but I'd like to volunteer to accompany you to Chicago to assist you in your safety. I feel in debt for everything you've done for me so please accept" Debby said quickly.

Jace seemed a little hesitant for a moment, but he nodded and began to give some instructions about the trip and what he expected of her when they were in Chicago. Debby looked gratefully at her mentor, and said goodbye to her in order to pack her suitcase.

As she ran down the corridors to her room, she noticed too late that Mr. KingofMeatPopsicles had just left his office and ran into her boss.

"This is already becoming a habit, young lady," he said as he helped her.

"I'm sorry, Lord. I was thinking about what I need to bring to accompany my mentor to Chicago and I did not realize the Lord was in the hallway." Debby answered shy by her total lack of attention, embarrassed.

Kingo seemed to understand, and dismissed Debby with a nod. Debby smiled, and continued her walk to her room.

After a few hours, and having found Jace, lost in Chicago after few accidents, Debby managed to relax in the car while noting the buildings in Chicago. The city looked like it had gone through a war, the buildings were damaged with bullet marks, some even burned and somewhat demolished.

Jace seemed to notice that Debby was a little shocked at the sight of the city, and commented that one of the purposes of the trip was to help Rubix in the first steps to re-raise her. Debby looked at him, and signaled that she understood the importance of this visit, and noticed that the car began to park in front of an imposing building.

Coming down from the car, Debby positioned herself a little behind her mentor to keep an eye on the people who were nearby. The street seemed crowded, and a group emerged from inside the building. Some faces looked familiar, and the dog in front of them could only be Rubix.

Jace introduced DebbyRyan to his best friends Rubix and Ellie, and they both seemed excited at another 2 legged visitor to their new place of business. They couldn't believe the spread and the evening Rubix had planned he had really gone all out to impress and make sure they had a lovely time, Jace wondered if philly knew what a big shot they let go but also knew Rubix had more than earned his keep. After eating some Jace having never really seen a pool before and with maybe one or two glasses of wine jumped into the pool with his clothes on as Rubix followed probably to make sure Jace didn't drown. 

 

Ellie and Debby looked on in disbelief as the "responsible ones" had just jumped in like that wondering what they were doing listening to the silly fools, Debby shook her head and laughed at the boys while Ellie nervously circled the pool careful not to get her beautiful fur wet while at the same time making sure the two silly ones were safe!!

It was shaping up to be quite the backyard bash, it was going to take some convincing to get everyone into the pool though. Rubix doggie paddled his way to the edge of the pool where Ellie wished to perform a full inspection and make certain he still smelled the same. Rubix gave her a playful bark and she eyed up the water and shook her little head no. Rubix lowered his nose down towards the water as an invitation for Ellie to climb aboard. 

She took her time, cautiously placing two tiny paws on Rubix and slowly released from the edge. It was an interesting sight, a wet blob of fur clinging to Rubix's head, rear feet anchored to his collar. Rubix paddled towards Jace as Ellie let out a small squeak of joy, she was clearly holding on for dear life but having a wonderful time as well. 

"Marco" Jace called out as his eyes were closed. Woof. Rubix replied as he paddled away. It took no time for Ellie to loosen up and start steering Rubix by the ears  to avoid being caught. Such a good team they were shaping up to be, by day they could lead a crime city and by night, water sports!

Jace attempting to catch a dog and a ferret in a pool of water with his eyes closed would have probably been the funniest thing most people from back home could imagine but he didn't care today was a rare day off and a good time with friends though he was certain DebbyRyan would never look at him the same way again. 

 

Ellie was clever and steering Rubix by the ears kept him out Jace's grasp for nearly 20 minutes, she was skittish by nature so staying out of the way came as natural as breathing to her. Eventually Rubix felt bad for poor Jace and let himself be caught before licking his face and nodding towards the expensive food lined up for them now that lunch was ready.

 

Jace was really excited to have a nice meal with friends more often than not his meals were done while he was also doing work so this was a nice change of pace and he was quite happy to taken care of almost everything back home before leaving. The food was amazing and it was completely adorable to watch Ellie nibble away on whatever she got her tiny paws on, while Rubix ate almost as fast as Jace did. The highlight of the meal was when someone rudely interrupted them he got to watch Rubix literally bark orders to have the situation dealt with, definitely a memorable event!

Rubix did not like to bark orders but sometimes it had to be done. It was like this beast inside him took over when there was business going awry. Yet as soon as it was over, playful Rubix was back in action, he lowered his face into the plate and continued to eat, the plate continually got away from him but luckily JaceCorso was there to push it back in front of him so his meal was less on-the-go. Upon finishing his meal and licking the entire plate clear he waited to see if Jace needed a hand with licking his plate down. He did not, Jace lifted the plate to his face and licked down every inch, Rubix was impressed, he liked this human. 

Ellie left the majority of food on her plate but she was given the same size helping which was larger than she was. Rubix and Jace split the food and helped her finish it off. The afternoon sun was quite warm and Rubix was covered in his food, it seemed he had no choice, he took off for the pool again, his paws already doing the paddle before he hit the water. He looked back at the dry group and closed his eyes.
