Tranquil New York . . . (RP) | Started by: Rhuarc on Feb 26, '08 03:40 |
I used to walk around New York with my Smith and Wesson half out the holster waiting to be bludgeoned by a bunch of thugs with a blackjack for small change. Now, walking through the streets of New York City at 06:00, I can sense it's changed, the big apple is different. The shops are grander, the bars are calmer, the whole place has a tranquil feel of structure, of organisation. Everyone knows their place, knows their purpose and life seems to be on the up. Reaching for a newspaper off the stand, I glance at the front page: "A Second Auth in Las Vegas" I heard about this, the Wildcards have moved up from a sub-crew in New York to joint owners of Vegas. Good for them! I continue to read: "New York Business District thriving" An article about the latest bars and club's in New York, I thought about the bar I like to frequent. . . "Put the paper down Rhuarc" The voice is shaky, he's nervous, nervous is good, I can take advantage of nervous but I can also feel the barrel of a shotgun pressed against my head. I tell him in as calm a voice as I can muster "I'm putting the paper down nice and slow." I can feel him looking around, anxious behind me. *BANG* I look round and he's on the floor dead, the gunshot was a rifle, knowing they're still watching, I casually pick up the paper when I see at the top of my field of vision in the alley opposite, a figure standing in the shadows. . . . |

The figure stands in the shadows and then vanish as he was not there Leaving you to ponder who was that mysterious man in the shadows |

"What the . . . " I look around, checking the streets to see if anyone else saw anything, it's just me and a dead guy now. *Siren* Bugger, the police are on the way! Was this whole thing a setup? Send some poor schlub to mug me, whack him and let me take the rap?!? I look around for somewhere to run, the only place with any shelter is that alley! |

I begin running down the alley for a hope for a door to be open somewhere...anywhere I run inside of a cracked open door and I see clothes and random things all over the floors "What the? Better than jail I guess." |
