As I entered the alley way behind the strip joint I frequented I was approached my a shadowy character.  My hand entered my pocket and slowly clutched my stiletto  but to my surprise I was greeted by Simplicity who quickly introduced herself.  Apparently my name preceded me and work was available.

This was music to me ears as ever since I could remember all I ever wanted to be was a gangster, naturally I accepted the work without even knowing what I would be.  What followed was the most terrifying and exhilarating night of my life.  I was tasked with 'a symple hit'.

But unbeknown-st to me there would be nothing simple about it.

I was given a location (the large house at the end of the street) and given a name (Dominick) the only other information I was given by Symplicity was 'Complete this task, and maybe, just maybe I'll have more work for you, you are not the first person I have approached but I am confident you will be the last.  Your mark will be in the master bedroom upstairs'.

'Sounds like fun' I eagerly replied.  Symplicity 's expression told me there was more to this than meets the eye, but i proceeded regardless.

The target building was only a five minute walk from the alley in which we stood so I decided to grab my .38 and climb over the wall into dark corner of the large garden.

To my amazement there were at least 15 armed guards pacing in different directions, one noise would surely alert them and that wouldn't bode well for me.  Quick thinking I grabbed a pebble from beside my feet and launched it at one of the guards, while staying deeply covered by the shadows.  Within seconds two of the guards were arguing the only thing i recall hearing was 'you think that's funny throwing stones at me, why I outta' stick ya right here right now'. While the guards were arguing amongst them selves and had their backs turned I somehow managed to sneak right past them and in through an open window, landing me in the kitchen.  I silently closed the window behind me and moved to the doorway connecting to the next room, I peered through the key hole and I saw nobody so I continued, luckily i found the staircase and nimbly climbed up.

'Dominick your time has come' I whispered as i drew my gun.

'I've been expecting you it seems Symplicity selected you well I see, you are the first one to make it this far Michael.' He replied without even a shred of fear in his voice.

'You know my name, but I was sent here to whack you, but how?' I now nervously muttered back.

'No this was all a test, and you're the first person to succeed.  you infiltrated the most well protected building on the block, now sit down we have business to discuss.  From now on you will be rolling with us The Bad Hombres, you will work hard and do as you are told and together great riches will bestow us, I demand loyalty and respect and in return I give the same.  Welcome to the crew!'

It was official I was now a part of what I always aspired to be apart of, from here things could only get better.

Special thanks to Symplicity and Dominick.
