Prologue


Damian, you get over here now before I call your father." Yelled his mama



Damian was 5 foot even, which was short for his age. Most boys at 15 were already hitting their growth spurts. His mother was agitated at the fact that her son Damian couldnt get along with anyone at school, just today he had punched kevin square in the nose for no reason. His mama knew it was probably bullshit, but she didn't want to talk to the school principal anymore then she had to.

Damian stepped into the living room where his momma sat with a stern look on her face. She was a beautiful woman, her red hair ran down her back and rested on her hip. He remembered she once said she was thinner before she got pregnant with him, when he asked what she meant she simply shrugged it off and laughed. She was wearing her favorite pink dress his father had bought for her a few years ago on her birthday. Damian was burning with anger but he knew better then to show any kind of disrespect towards his mother in fear of the wrath his father would surely bring. Also she was a very sweet woman and rarely scolded him for anything.



"What happened in school today with kevin, why did you feel the need to punch him?" His mother asked in a calm sweet voice.



Damian couldnt tell his mother that he was simply "taking care of things". Kevin was the popular kid in school, he had everything because his father was some sort of doctor or something and his mother was a teacher in the local college. He was the captain of the football team and looked the part to with lean muscle and the attitude to go with it. Kevin had taken a liking to Darlene petrocali and even tried to force a kiss on her under the bleachers before she slapped his face. He revolted by pushing her to the ground, then proceeded to spread a rumor of her being the easiest girl on campus. Now this would just get pushed under the rug in any other circumstance but Damian was coincidentally already putting in work for Henry" Lazy Eyes" Petrocali. Damian was assigned almost immediately to handle it.



Damian confronted Kevin under the bleachers after football practice. Some words were said and Damian punched Kevin in the nose knocking him to the ground. Then spit on his face and said,



"Lazy Eyes Sends His Regards"



Shortly after, Damian tore a hole in the shirt his mother had just bought him.



(Back in the living room)

Damian stood near his mother and started to explain,

"He pushed me down and ripped the new shirt you bought me mother"

"And this gives the right to punch him son" his mother asked

"No, I guess it doesn't mother" Damian replied.

"You got weed pulling duty in the backyard for 1 week for your actions" his mother said.



Damian hated pulling weeds but he didn't care, he pretty much got away with this one Scot-free.

Just as he was walking outside, his father pulled up in his car. Damian Sr was a tall man, scary looking. Always with a angry looking face, like he wanted to punch everyone who looked at him. He exited the vehicle and said 7 words.



"Did you take care of that thing?"

"Yes sir" said Damian with a huge grin on his face.



His father brushed past him and walked up the steps to the front porch before going inside. Damian walked to the backyard and knelt down by the fence to start pulling weeds. He felt proud and accomplished for doing what he did.

Chapter 1-The Fall

Damian wakes up early in the morning due to the phones nonstop ringing. He hears his father answer, mutter a few words then the front door slams and his father is gone. "I guess its gonna be another one of those days" he says with heavy eyes and a grogginess in his voice. The sun hadn't come up yet, that meant his mother was probably in the kitchen already rustling up some grub for him before he went to school. Damian took a quick bath before getting dressed. His father was strict when it came to hygiene and cleanliness inside the house. He needed to be bathed twice daily, once in the morning and again in the evening. The house couldnt be dirty, the laundry needed to be done and there was no such thing as a dirty dish in the sink. Damian threw on some black slacks and striped long sleeves real quick and moved to the table so he could eat breakfast.

His mother quickly fixed him a plate with two eggs sunny side up, two strips of bacon and a slice of ham. Damian wolfed down the food, gave his mother a kiss goodbye and walked out the front door as quick as he could, not wanting to converse with his mother about the first day back at school since his incident.

The morning air was fresh, kids, men and women filled the streets walking to work and school. A Packard rolled by with a couple of men in suits and nice hats. Damian stared at the car in admiration, one day he would be sitting in that vehicle having drinks with those folks. School was a 20 minute walk from Damians house so he began to huff it. On the way he would walk by Gary's house, Gary was Damians closest friend. They did everything together, from stealing cars, to selling smokes on the side of the gym at school, to picking up girls at the local movie theater. Gary sat on his front porch in a pair a Jean's ripped at the knee and a plad shirt on. His shoes were basically comedians already, always flapping their mouths.

"Heya Gary, what's the word on the street pal"? Damian asked jokingly in his best tough guy voice.

"Ya know, the same old same old." he replied with a quick laugh.

"Enough with da jokes though D, remember Sally? The girl with the cleft lip?" Gary asked.

"Yeah, wasnt she the one who took that slip and fell off the stage at last years talent show?" Replied Damian with a smirk.

"Well she's also Kevin's little sister, she dont really like him very much. So get this, as we were walking home from school yesterday she let it slip that her father who owns that store Burts Goods on the corner is having a resupply truck coming in this morning. " said david with an evil look in his eyes.

"Our cigarette supply is running awfully low and we could sure use the extra money" complained Gary.



Damian knew he couldnt pass up this offer, he would have to miss school to do this though and his mother wouldn't be very happy with him if she recieved a letter from the principal in the mail again. Also he knew he was gonna have to run this by Lazy Eyes in order to get the ok and avoid any consequences if there were any, and Lazy might even want a cut as well.

"Alright, sounds like we got some work to do, let's get to Luckys." Replied Damian.



Luckys was a corner store up the block that sold various goods such as milk, bread, ham, and booze to the locals. On the other hand, walking up to the front counter and whispering the words "I Feel Lucky" would grant you access to the gambling Den in the back of the store along with the usual pat down from the doorman.

Damian and Gary stepped into the Den, it was a completely different setting in there, there was a poker table set up in the middle of the room, a small fridge on one of the walls and a large safe on another wall. The room smelled of cigar smoke and expensive whiskey.

"What the fuck you mean they are refusing to pay?" Yelled Lazy Eyes.

"They said that they no longer needed protection" replied Monose.



Monose was an Soldier like Damian, he had his wits, not much of anything else though. Lazy usually sent him to do his collections but he had been having trouble collecting recently due to his problem with violence. He got his name early on his childhood when a Mole started to develop on his nose as you may have guessed.

"What did you do when he said this?" Lazy asked in an angry tone.

"Well nothing, he looked pretty angry and I was all by myself." Monose replied with scared look about him.

"Get the fuck outta my face." Yelled Lazy



Damian walked up to the table Lazy was sitting at and laid his plan out.



"So, theres this resupply truck coming in to Burts Goods on the corner. Gary and me plan to take some smokes off it to line our pockets. I wanted to let you know about it first before we take it." Said Damian

"Coincidentally, old Burt owes me some money to pay off his how do you say, gambling addiction. So by Robbing that resupply truck you will actually be robbing me. On the other hand, this fucking furniture store owner feels like he doesn't need protection anymore. I'll tell you what, head to this store, I believe it's called "Pin Cushion". Smash the place up a bit, let the owner know Lazy Eyes sent you. If you do this for me, I will allow you to take one of my trucks and unload my supplies from "your" resupply truck. You can keep your cigarette cartons from which I still expect my 25% cut off of." Said Lazy.

"Also, take two bats from the storage closet and take this gun just in case." said Lazy.



The cards were laid out on the table for Damian and Gary, now in order to restock there supply they needed to complete a job that Monose couldnt. Damian and Gary took the bats from the storage closet and Damian hid the pistol in his back between his belt and his shirt.



Damian peaked around the corner as Gary stood behind him. There was a sign holder outside Pin Cushion. Possibly a family member just trying to help sales. There was telling when that resupply truck would be showing up so the two boys had to act quick.

"First things first, we run up fast. If they see us with bats they will call the police. Hit the sign holder in the leg, dont kill him, just cripple him. I'll run in the store and do the same to the clerk." Whispered Damian

Gary just nodded his head in approval.

Gary begins to run up on the store, as the sign holder spins around he sees Gary out of the corner of his eye and jumps before the bat comes into contact with his leg. As a result Gary's bat hits the pavement and with pure adrenaline in back of his upward swing he hits the target square in the jaw knocking him unconcious. Damian is already in the store, he heads behind the counter where it looks like the clerk is seconds away from pulling a pistol from under the counter. Damian swings his bat in a chopping motion and connects with the clerks forearm. He is able to hear the bone crunching as the bat connects solidly. Then out of instinct he swings again and connects on the spine. Damian and Gary proceed to smash every window, every shelf, and and every item in the furniture store. When they feel like they have done enough damage, Damian walks behind the counter and tells the clerk. "You may want to reconsider Lazys offer".



Damian and Gary leave through one of the shattered windows in the store. On the ground there lays the sign holder, which appears to have a broken jaw due to the fact that his mouth his hanging so loosely from it's intended spot. A pool of blood is gathering on the pavement, possibly from a head wound he suffered after his head smacked the concrete after being knocked unconscious. Damian and Gary head back to Luckys to pick up the keys to Lazys truck.



The brakes on the the Volvo LV9 screech as the truck comes to a complete stop right next to an almost identical truck. Damian and Gary begin to unload and reload all the supplies from one truck to the other. They take all the cigarette cartons and place them upfront as to separate their take from Lazys take.

"Hey, what the fuck you think your doing?" Yells Burt.

"You owe Lazy Eyes Money, and were here to collect, dont do anything you might regret now" answered Damian with a commanding tone.



Burt stomps off in an angry fit but he knows what he owes and he dares not return to fight it. The boys drive off with a completely filled truck back to Lazys lockup where they could drop off the truck and continue on with their day.

"Fuck, it's been 5 hours already, were sure to get in trouble." Exclaimed Gary.

"Dont worry about it, its lunchtime, let's get back to class and act like we been there all morning." replied Damian



The remainder of the day was pretty uneventful, just teachers yelling at kids to not run in the halls. The two boys had already planned to meet on Hikers Bluff, it was a mountain at the rear of the school in back of the track field. The entrance to the bluff was covered in thick brush that the city had intentionally put there to stop people from going up the trails. The mountain was only a 200 ft climb to the top, once there it was a sheer 200 ft drop to rocks and trees below. The boys would always hangout in that area because nobody would ever think to look there. Gary showed up first, he stood atop the mountain admiring the great view of the forest surrounding their town. As he was gazing he couldnt help but hear some movement in the brush.

"Hey Damian your late" he laughed

"Dont call me Damian" said Kevin in an agitated voice.



Gary knew that kevin would be mad at the fact that Damian and himself had just ripped off his father Burt for all his goods. Kevin approached with a demeanor that didn't look to friendly.

"So you think you can rob an innocent honest hard working man like my father just because Lazy Eyes said it was ok?" Said Kevin.

"People like you are the problem now a days, with your fresh suits, nice cars, and funny talk. You think you can take advantage of us good folks because you got muscle?" Said Kevin

He seemed to get more agitated as he spoke to Gary in turn his attitude was becoming more aggressive. Kevin pushed Gary but Gary caught his balance and stayed standing all the while backing up closer to the cliff.

"I heard Wayne's store was trashed today, I bet it was you and Damian. Always starting trouble making it difficult to operate in this here fine city if your boss ain't making his cut. You know Carl is in emergency surgery, he may not make it. That blow to his head caused major hemorrhaging. And his poppa Ralph has a broken arm now. Imagine the pain hes going with his sons impending death all because they refused to pay your boss. I've never seen a bigger pair of tools in my life besides you and Damian. We need to remove filth like you from this earth." Yelled Kevin



And with that being said, Kevin lunged at Gary, punching him clean in the eye. Being the captain of the football team, kevin was able to overpower Gary pretty quickly pinning his to the ground while being in a sitting position on his chest. Gary tried to punch back but it was no use, kevin had his arms pinned to the floor with the weight of his legs. Kevin begin to brutally beat Gary into the dirt, gary continued to try and fight back, with his mouth full of blood he tried yelling between blows but just ended up choking on blood. Suddenly a shot rang out, it sounded as if a pistol were fired right next to Gary's ear leaving them ringing. The volley of punches stopped and Kevin lay on the ground next to him clenching his hands around his stomach. A small hole in his shirt would reveal what looked like a bullet hole from which he was bleeding profusely from.

"You shot me Damian" Kevin Cried in pain.



Damian rushed to aid Gary, lifting him off the floor and onto his feet. Gary felt extremely weak but rose anyway standing next to his best friend.

"You couldnt just leave it be could you? You cry about us thugs who rape and pillage your city for all its worth. Lazy didn't beg your father to borrow money and lose in gambling. Your father had an addiction and when he lost he ran. What kind of man doesn't own up when hes wrong. Pussies like your father, the only difference between him and you is he knew when to bite his tongue and let it be. Your laying here at my feet with a bullet hole in your stomach. So here's some advice for your next life, when someone tells you to leave it be, just leave it be." Says Damian in a calm collected tone.



With that being said Damian and Gary helped each other roll Kevin's already weak body off the side of the mountain. He screamed for his life on the way down, they both watched as his body came to a halt on the ridged rock beneath them.

"You ready to go home buddy?" Asked Damian.

"Yeah, what am I gonna tell my mom?" Asked Gary.

"You fell off your bike right?" Laughed Damian.

Chapter 2-In Other News

Damian laid in his bed that night thinking about all the events of the day. Did Kevin really have to die? He would have told the police he was shot by Damian, Damian would have been locked up. They would have wanted to know where he got the gun. Damian told himself he was overthinking the situation. But he definitely needed to get to the bottom of that cliff in the morning and move that body before any hikers got lucky and stumbled upon it. They cant very well blame his death on the fall when theres clearly a bullet wound in Kevins stomach.



"Reporting live from Carlisle Grove it's the 7 o clock news hour with Rachael Hemmings and Doug Gilbertson. We come to you tonight with breaking news of a missing teen right here in Carlisle Grove. Kevin Robertson is believed to be 16 years of age and attends Carlisle High where he is the captain of the football team. He has blonde hair, blue eyes and is white complected. He was last seen wearing blue Jean's and his high school Letterman jacket. If you or anyone you know have any tips on the whereabouts of this missing teen we urge you to call 911 and make a report. When we return we will be conducting an interview with Kevins football coach as well as few of his classmates.



Damian walked to the living room where his mother Celine sat on that old green couch. His father Had got them half price at the Pin Cushion so long ago. Celine had a concerned look about her as she watched her son enter the living room.

"Did you see Kevin in school today son?" Asked his mother.

"No momma, he doesn't associate himself with me, I'm not on the football team." Replied Damian.

"I hope that poor boys parents find him, I would hate to imagine what happened to him or where hes at." Said his mother in a sad voice.



Gary entered his house through the front door. His father was sitting down on that old beat up recliner with a beer in his hand. He wasnt wearing his rings, so Gary knew it wouldn't hurt to much when it was time to get punished.

"Your teacher said you weren't in school today you little shit" said Gary's father in a clearly irritated and almost drunk tone.

"No Sir" replied Gary.

"You think I go to work to put food on this table so you can run around in the streets like a little punk causing trouble?" Asked his father.

"No Sir" replied Gary.

"Let's get you cleaned up and ready for dinner son" his mother said almost whispering.

"Did I fucking tell you to speak bitch?" His father quickly answered.



Gary's father rose up off his recliner, Gregory was a tall man standing at almost 7 ft. He had on a white t shirt stained with dirt from work. His faded and ripped Jean's told a story of poverty and working for nothing. He was a bitter and strict man, he spent his time drinking while not at work and spent most of his life sitting at the local bar rather then being at home.

"So where the fuck were you today kid" yelled his father.

"I was at the par.."

Suddenly he was struck in the face by a heavy blow delivered by his father, knocking him to the ground.

"Lies! Everything that comes out of your fucking mouth is always Lies!" Yelled his father in a fit of rage.

Gary's mother jumped from the couch to defend her son but was instantly hit with a backhand to the mouth which knocked her unconscious.

"Get up you little bitch" Gregory commanded his son.

Gary slowly got off the floor to the living room, scared of what was to come. He was already in an extreme amount of pain from the beating he had taken earlier that afternoon. His lip had completely split open and he had two black eyes making it almost impossible for him to open them. Once he stood straight up he was struck with another blow to the side of the head which knocked him to the floor again. Gregory then took off his belt and began whipping Gary on the floor till he was crying in pain. He slept on the living room floor that night, afraid to stand up again.



Morning came and it was a Saturday which meant no school. But house rules clearly stated that if Damians father was awake then there was no way another man was gonna be asleep in his house. Damian quickly dressed himself and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. Upon entering he noticed his mother was not there which was odd because she never was not cooking in the morning. So he headed to the living room to sit on the couch and watch some TV. As he was entering the living room he couldnt help but here some chattering going on outside in the front of his house, so he took a peek out the front window. There was a police car, and what looked like two detectives standing outside talking to his mother and father.

"Miss Castaluchi we suspect Your son Damian might have some information on the whereabouts of the missing teen Kevin Robertson." Said the detective.

"And what makes you believe that?" Replied Damian Sr piping in already mad.

"Witness reports claim your son had an altercation with mr Robertson from which he was suspended from school" said the detective.

"Yes and he was already punished for that altercation" replied Damian Sr.

"Yes, we understand this sir but we would like your permission to take him downtown and answer a few questions for us." Said the detective.

"Well you most certainly will not get my permission, the high school principal has the altercation report go get it from him." Replied Damian Sr.

"Yes sir, I can see we are getting nowhere here, sorry for wasting your time sir.' Said the detective already frustrated.



Damian Sr walked inside with his wife and peered through the living room blinds till the detectives drove away. Afterwards he turned his gaze towards his son.

"We are going to talk about this son" said Celine.

"I'll talk to him" replied his father.



Damian Sr led his son to the backdoor, they exited and walked down the back steps towards an old storage room his father had built in the backyard. Once inside Damian could see a desk with papers and notebooks everywhere. There was a table with five chairs around it, and an old telephone sat on the wall. Damian had never been in this room before so everything was new to him, he only imagine it was where is father held his family meetings. His father pointed at the empty table and directed him to sit.

"Ok son am I correct to assume that Kevin is gone?" His father asked.

"Yes sir." Damian replied

" I need to know what happened and where is body is." Said his father.



Damian proceed to tell his father everything that happened between him Gary and Kevin. The altercation, the gunshot, the cliff, and the fall. His father sat back in his chair, taking in all the details he had just learned.

"How did it feel?" Said his father finally after a brief moment of silence.

"He was going to kill him father, what kind of man would I be if I had just let Gary sit there and take punishment for a job that took us both? I would be no kind of man, I had to do what I had to do no questions asked. I would rather see Kevin dead on the rocks instead of Gary, I have no regrets and a clear head." Replied Damian

"Good Boy" was all his father said before getting up and walking to the telephone hanging on the wall.

"Yeah socks, I need you to come down to my place with the truck. Oh and bring Sniffs with you " said his father into the phone.



Damian had only heard of those two men, he had never met them before, his fathers crew was to close knit so not many new soldiers knew them. Socks had gotten his name because he would always wear colored socks with pictures and artwork on them. And Sniffs got his name from a funny childhood habit he had which made him sniff his upper lip every few seconds. Those two men were known to be his fathers most trusted associates.

"You go with Socks and Sniffs, if your lucky you can clean up your mess before the cops find it." Said Damian Sr.



The ride to the bottom of the cliff was quite beautiful to say the least, they had to take a few backroads and even a small caliche road that lead straight to the bottom of the cliff.

"So your father says you took this kid out for messing with your friends. If that ain't the most sincere show of friendship I dont know what it." Said Socks as he giggled softly

"This boy must have really did a number on Gary for you to wanna shoot him and send him on a one way ticket drop to hell." Laughed Sniffs before sniffing his upper lip.



They seemed like hardened criminals, Damian didn't feel bad for his actions, nor did he laugh about it. But these guys, they were making jokes, trying to lighten the mood. They all knew they were headed to the bottom of a mountain to scrape a dead body off the rocks and move it, and still these guys were joking about it. Damian switched on the radio so he could drown out their laughs.



I hear babies cry and I watch them grow

They'll learn much more than we'll know

And I think to myself

Oh, what a wonderful world

I think to myself, yes

What a wonderful world

I think to myself, yeah

What a wonderful world

The song played smoothly and brought a soothing silence to the truck as they drove slowly down that caliche road.

Breaking news update out of Carlisle Grove, new witness reports have come to light, an anonymous citizen reported seeing the missing teen Kevin Robertson walking through the heavy brush in back of the stadium up to Hikers Bluff. Is it possible the young boy took a fall while gazing at the mountain view? Police are now on their way to said mountain to investigate further. Stay tuned in folks as we update you on the latest news following this tragic event. And now we bring you...



Damian switched off the radio as Sniffs pressed his foot harder against the throttle. They arrived at the spot directly underneath the bluff, Sniffs parked the truck under some trees successfully blocking the view of it from the top of the bluff. Damian searched the rocks for the body but only found a blood stain on the rocks. Yet there seemed to be a trail leading away from the rocks deeper into the forest. He thought to himself, "theres no way this sorry fucker survived that fall and crawled away." Socks took the lead drawing his pistol with Sniffs behind him also drawing his pistol. Damian followed close behind the two of them also carrying the pistol Lazy Eyes had given him but not drawing it. He knew he had shot Kevin the afternoon before, but that was in defense for his friend. If Kevin was still alive and bleeding out somewhere, then he knew he would have to do the execution. He contemplated his options as the three men followed the blood trail. All suspicion was laid to rest when they entered a big clearing in the middle of the woods. Kevin lay there motionless in the middle, his skin and flesh were ripped to shreds. His skull was already exposed showing fractures in his eye holes, no doubt where his face made contact with the rocks at the bottom. A pack of wolves must have found him and dragged him to this clearing where they fed on his remains for the rest of the night. Damian turned away and threw up a little in his mouth but swallowed it back up so Socks and Sniffs wouldn't see him in this weak state.

"Down there in the trees, theres movement, let's get a team down there now." Yelled the detective that had been to Damians house earlier that morning.



Dogs could be heard barking at the too of the mountain as well as shouts from the police. Damian, Socks, and Sniffs picked up Kevins lifeless body which was extremely lighter now that most of the flesh had been ripped away. They hurried back to the truck and threw the now almost skeleton in the back. Sniffs hopped in the driver seat and turned the truck on, he then threw it into gear and drove back to the caliche road from whence they came. The truck seemed to be flying down the road leaving a thick cloud of dust behind them. Damian thought to himself "theres no way the cops didn't see this this thick cloud of dust leaving the scene of the crime". Even if the cops did see the cloud of dust on the caliche road, which they probably saw the truck to because they were so high up. The only entrance to this road was from two side roads you had to take off the main highway which started on the other side of town. Sniffs turned left at the end of the caliche road which put them on a small paved road. Another left turn a couple miles up ahead would put them on the main highway. Suddenly Sniffs turned to the right down a small dirt road that had fences on either side. There were trees almost grown into the fence line giving them complete cover from the road they were just on. They came to a fork in the road that went left or right, Sniffs turned left. They drove about a quarter mile down the road before coming to a stop at a gate that was closed with a chain and padlock. Socks exited the truck and reached In his waist cost for a key chain which looked to have ten or more keys attached to it. He fumbled around with it until he had the correct key, he then opened the gate. Further down the road they crossed a tunnel bridge before stopping at a junkyard with what looked like a huge crusher in the middle. Damian Sr was standing near it with his car parked close by. Sniffs drove into the crusher and then instructed everyone to exit the truck.



Damian Sr pushed a button and the crusher pressed the truck into the ground. Socks had seated himself in a machine that had a huge magnet in it, he hovered over the vehicle and picked it up like magic. He then turned to the far right side swinging the truck, and with the momentum he turned the magnet off causing the now crushed truck to fly in the air and land in a gigantic pile of crushed vehicles. Damian got inside his fathers Cadillac. He remembered crossing the bridge before dozing off in the backseat.



Damian woke up as his father turned down the street where he lived. As he passed by Gary's house, he noticed three cop cars outside along with an ambulance. The medic team carried out a stretcher with what looked like a body on it, sheets covered his face but his little hand hung off the side of the makeshift bed. Gary's mother ran outside screaming and yelling through tears.

"WAKE UP BABY, PLEASE WAKE UP, MOMMYS RIGHT HERE."

Her cries would forever be imprinted into Damians mind, like a tattoo on his brain. His heart and his stomach seemed to drop and and rise meeting in the middle. His throat swoll up and his face cringed as uncontrollable tears started rushing down his face. The police escorted Gregory out of the house in handcuffs, his face looked grim but his eyes were bloodshot like he had been coming down off of a heavy hangover. Gary's mother slapped him and scratched him as he was being walked downstairs.

"YOU MOTHAFUCKER, YOU BASTARD, YOU KILLED MY BABY!!! BURN IN HELL YOU MONSTER!!!.

Damian fought hard through tears and crying to exit the car and run to Gary but Socks held him inside reassuringly telling him it would all be ok.



Damian took a long hot shower, he couldnt help but think about all the events that took place between friday and Saturday. He didn't want to think about Gary, "how did he die? He was just with him and now hes gone." Tears began to form in his eyes again before he realized he had been in the shower for more then two hours. He turned the water off and quickly dressed himself before heading to his room.

"Damian get over here, hurry son" his mother yelled.

Damian headed to the living room where his mother sat with his father. Celine turned up the Volume on the Television set.

Chapter 3-Melted

Damian walked through the supermarket, he was there alone just looking around passing time. And then she walked passed him down the aisle. She had short hair, almost down to her shoulders, her eyes were that of an innocent women, they seemed to cut through him to the inner sanctum of his soul. And at that moment he felt like a child again. She wore little to no makeup, her cheeks were naturally rosy red and her lips pink like a fresh blossomed rose. Her body was thin and athletic with some curves but not as much as you would expect. She turned to look at Damian and let out a cute little smile, her top teeth lightly bit her bottom lip and she turned away. Damian was instantly in love, the kind of love like he had just witnessed his soul mate walk by. His heart melted, he could feel butterflies fluttering around in his stomach. The store clerk had just put the Boswell sisters vinyl on the record player. Blue Moon could be heard playing softly in the market. He knew he couldnt let her go without at least talking to her, so he followed her down the grocery aisle. All the way at the end, there she stood picking up bread and various seasonsings. Damian slowly walked down the aisle contemplating what to say to her. He had never felt this way before. With other girls he could usually walk up, spit a good pickup line and that was it, but when he stood near this girl, his heart melted and he got choked up. He hadn't thought of a single pickup line before he reached her. He stood in front of her almost blocking her path, and worked up a little courage to say "Hey". She said hello back and giggled. Damians heart melted again.

"Mary!, Mary!" Her father called

"I'm here Daddy" mary called back.

"Its time to go home now sweetie" he kindly said to her.

Her father was a tall man, he wore a business suit, striped with a black tie. He had a rich guy look to him.

"Whose this young man?" He asked his daughter.

"My name is Damian Sir." Replied Damian

"Well, it was nice to meet you young man, I hope you have a swell day" he said.

Mary and her father walked out of the market and casually strolled down the sidewalk. Damian figured they didn't get out much and were probably exploring the city.



Across the street, stood a kid around his age. He was motioning to another boy who was slightly younger. The younger boy rode his bike down the sidewalk passed a hotdog vendor, then intentionally fell off, scraping his knee in the process. The boy then began to sob silently. The hotdog vendor immediately left his stand to help and comfort the boy. The older boy proceeded to the stand and began to steal a couple of sausage links. While doing this, the vendor turned around and saw what was going on and began to yell.

"Thief, someone stop that thief!!"

The older boy turned around and ran down the street and past the corner, the young boy took this chance to get back on his bike and pedal away. Damian couldnt understand why he was so intrigued by these shenanigans, and decided to run across the street and passed the corner to catch the older boy. He ran a few blocks but with no success in catching the older boy. Then suddenly like magic, the older boy was behind him.

"The name is Nick, ya want a sausage?" Said nick

"Those were some pretty slick moves back there that you and your friend pulled." Said Damian.

"That's my brother chris" replied Nick.

Nick was a little taller then Damian, he had a lean build to him. More top heavy though, his body was a replica of the bodybuilders you would see on TV, just without the bulging muscles. He wore a white striped shirt underneath a pair of blue suspenders. He looked like he might live in the sticks.

"You wanna go to my moms house with me? I gotta go check up on her." He said.

"Sure" replied Damian.

Damian wondered to himself, why was this guy so friendly? Are all country folk this friendly? And why am I so comfortable with it?

"I must warn you, it's a bit of a walk...um what was your name?" Nick said

"I'm Damian, and um... how far of a walk exactly? Damian replied.

"Well technically when you leave the city limits, it's about ten miles down 665 then when you get to 336 it's about another six miles. But my brother and I usually just walk straight down the field kinda like a B line to my moms" replied Nick.

Damian had nothing else to do that day so he just rolled with the punches. Through backroads it was a sixteen mile walk but through the fields in a B line it was an eleven mile walk.

"So how old are you?" Asked Damian.

"I'm 14 but imma be 15 in two weeks on February 26th." Replied Nick.

"I'll be 16 on March 7th" said Damian.

Damian stared at nick while they chatted, he had green eyes, it was funny, he didn't know anyone with green eyes. Nick had no hairstyle he was literally bald, he had higher then normal cheekbones and small lips. There was a scar on his forehead just above his right eye. He had a deep voice, he talked with power, like he feared nothing.

"How did you get that scar above your left eye?" Damian asked

"Funny story, I was at my ex girlfriend's house and her brother was there, hes never really like me much. He got funny with his mouth which led to a fight. He pulled a knife, and honestly I shit my pants because I didn't have a knife to pull too. So he swung the knife in a stabbing motion at my chest, the point made contact but only left a small hole. I grabbed his wrist, pulling him closer to me and I headbutted him so hard I got a small concussion. Well that's what the doctor said anyway. Her brother fell unconscious and a small nail size piece of flesh fell out of my head. It was well worth the scar. Replied nick as he laughed about it.

As they neared Nick's mother's house, Nick described the surroundings. Far to the left was a trailer house sitting on around two acres. The trailer house was sitting on the second acre in the back with a big caliche road all the way to the front gate. There was a cattle panel fence all the way around it. Nick said that was his mothers house. Further to the right was what looked like a dirt processing plant, it was a huge estate, maybe twenty acres. The plant was clearly in the rear of the property with a large oval road on either side of it that connected to a main road in the left which left the property. There was a line of dump trucks leading from the main entrance all the way to the main plant, they would park underneath a spout that would empty sand into the rear of the trucks. Directly in front of the plant was an old Victorian style plantation looking house. It was solid white, with four columns standing. In between the two inside columns was a big red door. A wrap around porch went around the house with white handrails. It looked like a white picket fence. Damian couldnt see what was in front of the house but no doubt it was just the county road as they were coming up on from the back. About four miles down the road ok the opposite side lived Nick's girlfriend he said.

They arrived at Nick's mothers house and jumped the back gate to enter the property line. Almost instantly the family dog began to run up on them, the dog didn't look to friendly and he wasn't charging Nick. Nick quickly grabbed the dog by his collar, and yelled.

"No Duke!!"

The dog was beautiful, his entire body was light brown except for his left eye, his paws, and his belly which were white. Nick walked with Duke across the yard to a huge thick oak tree. Nick clipped a chain on his collar then proceeded to move his bowl of food and bowl of water to the tree. As they walked away towards the house, Damian couldnt help but admire Duke. His body looked muscular and he stood on his hind legs trying to break loose off his collar to exterminate the new threat in his domain.

Nick and Damian walked into the trailer house through the backdoor straight into the kitchen. To the right was a laundry room, there were two baskets of clean neatly folded clothes just sitting there. The dining table sat on the left with six chairs tucked underneath, two on each side and one each at both heads of the table. A picture window sat behind the table with a perfect view of the backyard. Further to the left was the living room, no walls separated the kitchen from the living room. There were 2 couches in an L formation with a recliner on the right facing a small TV which sat atop a big brown Cedar Chest. To the right of where they stood were double doors which led to the master bedroom which had it's own bathroom. Directly in front of them was Nick's mothers blue countertops all stretching to the far left, and a fridge at the end. The fridge stopped at the piece of wall that separated the kitchen from the living room. To the far right of the counters was a kitchen sink. And directly in the middle of the room was a stove with and island and two counters on either side. Nick's mother stood at the stove with a flat pan and a pot of boiling water on the flame. On her counter sat a bag of flour and a rolling pin. The counter behind her and various other foods including a recently defeathered chicken.

She looked up at Damian and Nick as they entered the house. She was an older woman, in her early fifties. She had a warmth to her demeanor. Her voice sounded between a high and low pitch, almost like an angel. Damian immediately felt at home.

"Where have you been Nick, and whose your little friend here? She asked in a sweet voice.

"Hi mom, I was just out with Chris getting sausages for supper and on the way home I met Damian." Said Damian

"Son, did you steal those sausages again?" She asked, seemingly already aware of her son's nature.

"No way mom, the hotdog guy must have been in a giving mood cause he saw me and just gave them to me out of the kindness of his heart." Replied Nick innocently with a small grin on his face.

"Yeah whatever, just dont let your father find out. You know how he feels about those kinds of things." She warned him.

"Dont worry mom, he will never find out" Said Nick as he chuckled to himself.

Damian was Shocked even witnessing this conversation. Nick had just literally lied to his mother which she brushed off knowing he was lying, and then he admitted stealing the sausages, and his mother still protected him. This would never have happened in his house, his mother would have scolded him and made him return to the vendor to give back the stolen food.

"Will you be staying for supper Damian?" Asked Nick's mother.

"I dont know If my parents would let me ma'am." Replied Damian.

Damian could hear the sound of a car engine coming down the road, Nick had gone to his room to change clothes. His mother peered out the window on the opposite side of the kitchen above the sink to see who was passing by. Damian only saw a spec pass by the window, it looked like a brown car but he wasn't sure.

"Nick, It looks like Jennifer Is out of school and heading home." His mother Yelled to him from across the house.

Nick didn't seem to hear his mother yelling at him, she motioned for Damian to go to his room and let him know. Damian crossed the kitchen into the living room. The front door was at the far end to the right of the living room. Passed that was a small hallway, On the first left there was a closed door which was Chris' room. Further down to the left was Nick's room, and it shared a wall with the bathroom. Damian knocked then entered the room, Nick was putting on a red shirt.

"Your mother said Jennifer was home" said Damian.

"That's my girlfriend" nick said excitedly.

"Let's go to her house" he said.

Damian and nick left his room and walked through the hall into the living room. Nick swung open the door..

"Damian before you leave, write your information down on that pad near the door so I can get a hold of your parents. If you boys stay out late I can at least arrange for your father to pick you up here." Said Nick's mother.

Damian quickly wrote down his fathers name and address then ran out the door after Nick. They both hurried down the long caliche road to the front gate which they jumped to get on the main road. Nick began to slowly jog down the road so Damian followed. A short way down the street to the right they came up on the plantation house which they had to pass to get to Jennifer's house. The house was just as astonishing from the front as it was from the back. A ten foot tall fence stood out front just a few feet from the house. From the main road if Damian reached through the fence he could almost touch the porch.

"Wow that house is something huh?" Said Damian.

"Yeah that's the Parsons Plant, they sell sand that gets mixed and turns into cement. Most of the roads in the city are paved with this material. The owners daughter is a beauty on her own. I think her name is Mary Parsons." Nick said.

This struck Damian like lightning, could it be? The same girl he had met earlier in the market? His heart was racing and his mouth was dry.

"I think I met her in the market this morning before I met you. I felt like we had a connection, I wouldn't mind seeing her again." Whispered Damian.

"That's deep man" nick said cutting through the tension like a knife while he laughed to himself.

"Well if you feel that true about her I'm sure we can jump this fence and shimmy the drain pipe up to her window to get inside" said Nick.

"Whose window yall boys trying to break into today?" Came a sweet innocent voice from the 2nd story window.

Damian heart melted again as he looked up and saw Mary's face looking down at them smiling. All of the sudden he just started talking like a motor that wouldn't shut off.

"Its not wh..what you think, we were j..just going over to Nick's girlfriend Jennifer's house, and we saw your window..and...and" Damian Stuttered.

Damian paused and thought to himself, why am I stuttering, this has never happened to me. What is this girl doing to me?

"You said yall are going over to Jennifer's house?" She yelled from the top window.

"Please wait for me, I wanna go too." She said.

"Daddy, I'll be back. I'm going to hang out with Jenny for a bit." She yelled through the house.

"Be sure and be back here before supper young lady." Her father replied.

Mary quickly dressed and slipped on her shoes before running out the front door to meet the boys on the main road. The three teens ran on down the road to Jennifer's house together. As they arrived at their destination, Jennifer was walking outside and saw Nick walking up. She immediately ran towards nick and jumped into his arms, they shared a kiss and began talking about her day. Mary stared at Damian almost looking like she expected him or wanted him to show the same kind of love and affection her friend was receiving.

"So that's your house huh?" Asked Damian.

It was a dumb thing to ask, but for the life of himself he couldn't think of a single thing to talk to her about. He had dry mouth, scratchy throat and his palms were sweating. He could have passed as a sickly patient down at the ward.

"Yes, Daddy built it with his bare two hands twenty years ago, that was much before I was a little baby." She answered.

"I saw you in the market this morning and I thought my God this woman is beautiful, I just didn't think we would see each other again so soon so I'm honestly speechless." He said quickly.

"Your cute, and I like you" she said as she giggled and gently bit her bottom lip again.

"Hey lovebirds, let's go to the creek in back of Jenny's house, we can hang out there." Yelled Nick, as him and Jenny raced away holding hands.

Damian sprinted towards Nick and Jenny but stopped suddenly when he realized Mary wasnt behind him. He turned to look back, there she was still standing where he had left her biting on her lip. Damian walked back towards her and gently grabbed her hand and asked.

"Will you go with me?"

She smiled, and agreed. They both ran off with Jenny and Nick holding hands.

Damian knew what it felt like to be a man, getting into fights and being the mischievous kid on the block but this feeling he had holding her hand was different. He really felt like a man, like he wanted to protect her and be good to her. It was difficult to explain but he felt like he was changing.

They all reached the creek together and immediately Nick jumped off the edge where the water met the dirt and landed in the water. He was neck deep so Damian knew he was gonna have to swim if he wanted to jump in.

"Yall jump in with me" he laughed.

"You crazy boy, we ain't got no bathing suits" answered Jennifer.

"We ain't in the city, nobody is here to watch us and judge us. Just get in with what your wearing. Unless your scared of getting whipped by your Daddy" nick said sarcastically.

"You know exactly how to hit me where it hurts baby" replied Jennifer as she ran and jumped into the water screaming.

Damian and Mary quickly followed yelling and screaming as they jumped off the edge and landed in the water below. Damian hadn't realized but the edge was actually quite high, he must have plunged nearly ten feet before hitting water causing him to yell in shock of not hitting the water sooner then expected. The four teens splashed and had fun with each other laughing and joking for the better half of the remainder of the day.

The sun began to go down and water got colder. A small black head arose out of the water from the opposite bank. Nick knew more then anyone that this was a water moccasin and they needed to make haste getting out of the water. Once out they watched as the sun began to slowly sink into the sky bringing out the nighttime stars. Just behind Jenny's house was a huge boulder that sat halfway dug out of the ground. It was flat on top looking more like a comfy bed of rock.

"Yall know that unlike the city, you can see a million more stars in the sky out here. I guess its something to do with how dark it is out here" Nick said.

"I say we climb the rock and lay up there forever till the stars fall." Whispered Jenny.

Nick lifted jenny to the top, and then climbed up himself. Damian did the same, gently holding Mary till she caught her footing and was able to climb. The four of them lay on top side by sides holding hands as they gazed at the stars above. It was just another night for Nick, he always did this with his carefree spirit. Jenny was in live with nick and held onto him tightly enjoying the bonding moment they were having. Mary was certain she had found a man worth holding on to, and there was no better way she could envision spending her time with him then this. Damian felt the spark of new love with Mary, but on the other hand he kept thinking about his recently passed best friend. He wondered if Gary was up there in the stars watching him. Was Gary in heaven now? Was Kevin also in heaven? What's heaven like? Were they friends up there? Were they both in the stars watching him? A tear fell from Damians eye as these thoughts ran circles in his head. He couldnt understand why he deserved this moment after all the bad shit had happened that led up to this point.

"I dont deserve you." He whispered in Mary's ear before he lightly kissed her cheek.

"We will let God decide that" she said with a smile before hugging him.

Damian and Nick helped the girls get off the rock as it was getting late already. Nick said his goodbyes and Jennifer went inside. They headed on down the road and Damian said his goodbyes to Mary before she went inside. When the two boys arrived at the front gate, they saw Damians fathers Cadillac parked in the driveway. Damian shook Nick's hand and said his goodbyes before driving off with his father.

"How was day son?" His father asked.

"I met a girl" he replied.

Chapter 4-Not So Happy Birthday

"Let's get the fuck out of here" yelled carlos.

"Where the fuck are we gonna go?" Yelled Damian.

Carlos ran beside Damian in a crouched position trying to avoid detection. Damians hand was gushing out blood and his head was pounding heavily already going into shock from blood loss. Damian tore off a piece of his shirt and wrapped it around his right pointer finger tightly in Hope's that it would stop the heavy blood loss. Rene had fallen behind but he had caught up now, his shirt drenched in blood. Just then a patrol car came from around the corner with his spotlight on surveying the neighborhood looking for the three boys.

"Quick, get under this car" said Carlos.

The boys quickly crawled underneath the car with their heads up watching as the patrol car creeped up and stopped at the car they were under. Their hearts were pounding, they knew what they had done and didn't wanna get caught.



Earlier that Morning



Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you. The crowd sang as Damian sat at the table in front of his cake. He had already told his mother he didn't want any if this but there was no arguing when she brought up tradition. Damians father sat in the corner, smiling at his sons embarrassment as all the old ladies in his family pinched his cheeks and swarmed him with kisses.

"Alright now, that will be enough. Let me take my son out for his birthday gift." Said Damians father as he laughed.

Damian felt relieved, he was waiting for his father to get him out of there. He had a date with Mary that night and he couldn't wait to see her. He and his father walked outside and climbed into the Cadillac. His father shifted into reverse and left the driveway.

"Now I know you got that date with your girl tonight but your gonna have to go see Lazy first. Hes been having a little problem lately and push has come to shove." Said Damians Father no longer joking and laughing.

The Cadillac pulled up to Luckys and the two got out. His father led him to the backdoor where he used a key to gain entrance into the Den.

"Heya Monster what took you so long" said Lazy with a smile on his face.

"Today is my sons birthday, you outta know that" said Damians Father still very serious.

"Oh....I totally forgot, my apologies Boss. Happy Birthday Damian." Replied Lazy.

That was the first time Damian had ever heard anyone refer to his father as "Monster". It was usually Boss this Boss that until now. He wondered what his father had done to get such an agressive nickname.

Sitting at the table was Lazy and two other boys, Socks and Sniffs stood by the rear entrance side by side with their hands cupped in front.

"These are my nephews Damian, Carlos and Rene." Said Lazy as he pointed to the two men sitting at the table.

"Carlos is in love with Maria, he plans to marry her someday" said Lazy.

"Whose Maria?" Asked Damian.

"Nobody, your getting off topic D" replied Lazy.

"Maria has two cousins by the name of Mando and Chapa. They run with some local street gang I cant remember the name. Well they dont approve of the relationship and refuse to leave my nephew alone." Said Lazy.

"What the fuck business is it of theirs?" Asked Damian

"Exactly my point, now they have already had several run ins in the past. Nothing serious, just a few fights you know, meat for the dogs. But now Maria says her cousins will be at Carlos' house tonight with a shotgun to finish what they started." Said Lazy.

Damians eyes widened as those words escaped Lazys mouth.

"We cant have that, this situation needs to be handled if you catch my drift. Take this gun, you meet Carlos and Rene tonight on 342 Maple drive around midnight." Said Lazy as he handed a .38 to Damian.

"If you get this done for me, I'll make sure your taken care of." Said Lazy.

Damian left Luckys with his father and got back into the car. He could feel the bulge of the .38 pressed against his back as he sat. His father said nothing, like he had no input. So many things were racing through Damians head, how would it kick off, how would it end, how would they escape, would he ever see Mary again if he had to flee the county. What if things went wrong and he died, for what? Who the fuck was carlos to him. He had his trusty switchblade in his back pocket, should he use it instead of making so much noise shooting the gun. There were so many possibilities and scenarios that could happen and he couldn't stop thinking about them.



Damians father came to a stop outside of Mary's house. Damian tried clearing his head of all the information he had just taken in. He exited the car and walked up the steps to the front porch before tapping on the front door to her house. Her father Mr. Parsons answered.

"Hello young man, I believe you are here to take my daughter out are you not?" Said her father.

"Yes Sir." Replied Damian.

"And where do you plan on taking her?" He asked.

"First we will dine in at Marcellos Bistro, afterwards we are stopping for a movie then some Ice Cream possibly if there is time left.' Said Damian.

"0hhh?, and what movie shall you both see?" Asked her father.

"Scandalous Entanglement was just released, I figured we could see that." Replied Damian

Just then a sweet voice came from the top of the winding staircase inside her home.

"I'm ready" said Mary as she walked slowly down the stairs.

Damian was in heaven again, she wore a rose red dress that ended at her ankles, the dress had ruffles along the neck line and she wore a pair of red high heels that were barely visible due to the length of her dress.

"Happy Birthday Damian" said Mary as she gave him a quick peck on the cheek.

The two jumped into the car after smelling their farewells to her father. The car ride was quiet, Damian wanted to say so much but didn't want anything to cloud his train of thought for the end of the night. He had an empty feeling in his gut and his heart was still racing. Time must have flown by because before he knew it, his father was already pulling up at Marcellos Bistro. Damian and Mary hopped off the car and headed to the entrance of the bistro.

"I'll pick you up at the theater at 11pm." his feather yelled out the window before they were inside.

"Yes Sir" replied Damian.

The restaurant was beautiful, there were tables everywhere with people eating. Some dressed in suits others dressed in overcoats. The waiter quickly led Mary and Damian to a private booth which had a candle sitting in the middle on top of the table. Two plates sat across from each other with spaghetti topped with chicken and parmesan. A quarter nearby played a soothing sweet symphony as the waiter poured the wine.

"I cant believe we've been together almost a month now, it seems like just yesterday I had met you for the first time." Said Damian, trying to be quiet.

"Your right, it doesn't feel like a month, although I'm sure glad I met you" replied Mary.

"Thanks for being here with me on my birthday." Said Damian.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world, but you better be at my birthday too" she cried playfully.

The way she said that made Damian feel woozy, like a natural high. He couldnt help but melt in her arms and forget about everything in his life when he was with her. After Dinner they walked down the sidewalk to the theater. He paid both their admission fees and the two were seated. The movie was supposed to be some Romantic flick with a side of violence. Damian barely watched it. Afterwards he took Mary out for ice cream. They strolled casually down the well lit street holding hands and talking.

"Mary do you love me." Asked Damian.

"More and more everyday that passes it seems." Replied Mary.

"Let's run away together" he blurted out.

"What? Why? What do you mean?" Mary asked rapidly after being caught off guard with Damians statement.

"We can run away together just the two of us, we dont need this town. We could find ourselves a nice little house and buy our own land far away. We could have a white picket fence around our land with guard dogs. We could name one of them duke. Think about it, it would just be us two. Nobody telling us what to do." Said Damian

"What about our parents? They would worry about us. I cant do that to my father Damian, he would be crushed " she cried.



At that moment, a solid black Cadillac pulled up, It was Damians father. They drove down the county roads in silence. Mary thought of the plans Damian had laid out for them but couldn't come to terms with just leaving her father like that. As she got out of the car at her house, Damian stepped out and gave her a hug.

"I'm sorry Mary, I have no idea what came over me back there. I have a lot on my mind right now and I was honestly looking for an escape route. I don't want this to put any bind on our relationship. I love you and goodnight." Said Damian as he slipped into the car not waiting for her reply.

The Cadillac pulled away, it was 11:30pm and they were headed to Carlos' house, he knew there was no way out of it now. What had to be done had to be done, he chose this life, he couldnt back down when it got hard. The caddy came to a stop in front of an old house. Damian got off the car and shut the door as his dad pulled away.

The house had a chain link fence around it that wrapped around the yard from the front to the back. He could hear the neighbors dog barking its head off next door. On the right was a caliche drive way which led to the backdoor of the house on the left. A shed stood in the backyard, along with a stretch of fencing that looked as if it were knocked down by a heavy dog who couldnt jump high enough. Damian walked along the driveway slowly, contemplating what was about to or what could happen that night. He got to the backdoor and formed a fist to knock but got cold feet and walked away instead. He ran down the driveway to the road and saw the black Cadillac parked at the end of the street. He turned back around and headed to the backdoor. He knocked lightly on the solid white door hoping nobody would answer. The light from the kitchen window visible from the driveway switched on as Damian could hear footsteps heading from the front room to the backdoor. The door lightly opened and Damian was met with a pistol to the face. Once Carlos realized who it was, he lowered his pistol. He led Damian inside, Damian walked passed the threshold of the backdoor and into the kitchen. It was a clean set up, the kitchen wasnt as wide as it was narrow. To the left was a long table that stretched rather far almost to the living room. There were only 3 chairs there, something you wouldn't expect for such a nice piece of furniture. The table sat in the center of the kitchen, directly to the left from the door were two counters, then a sink and finally a stove. The stove sat next to a wall that separated the living room from the kitchen. Walking towards the table on the far right before the wall to the living room was an arch that led to a hallway that looked like a T shaped intersection. Straight ahead was the bathroom and two bedrooms, one on either side. Damian made sure to get a good layout of the house, outside he was scared and hadn't made the decision to accept the situation at hand. But when he set foot in the home his mind switched to planning mode. All of a sudden he wasnt so scared and twisted inside, he had already accepted death if it was to come out that way. He also accepted the fact that two men might die that night from his actions. Now wasnt the time to be frightened, now was the time to act. Damian reached for the piece Lazy had given him but felt an empty spot, the gun must have fallen in his fathers car he thought. He looked up at Carlos, who was staring at him, Rene was sitting in the living room on the couch smoking a joint. He looked pretty messed up, he probably had started preparing early and got wasted before anything happened.

"Hey Carlos, you have a piece right?" Asked Damian.

"Yeah D I do, but we weren't sure what time this thing was gonna happen so we headed home as soon as we left Luckys. I didn't have enough time to stop by the gun store to get any bullets." Replied Carlos.

"Yo what the fuck is wrong with Rene, dont he know what's about to happen?" Yelled Damian.

"He'll be alright, he just needs some coffee, I got some brewing right now." Said Carlos.

"Fuck" Damian thought, as he realized that Mando and Chapa would be showing up with a shotgun.

"Put some water to boil on the stove, when they get here, you grab the pot and fling the boiling water on the first person to walk through the door" said Damian.

"I have a switchblade, give rene a kitchen knife. He will hide behind the separation wall between the living room and the kitchen. Carlos you get underneath the table and get ready to pull the gun, maybe they will get intimidated and run. I'll stand near the first counter and stick the first guy who comes through the door if he poses a threat." Commanded Damian.

As they were planning, and thinking about there strategy, two male voices could be heard coming up the street. They were loud enough to make out the things they were saying. Damian quickly shut out all the lights in the house and directed everyone to get into position.

"These mothafuckers are scared, they ain't gonna be here. Their both probably at their mommas house crying." Laughed Mando as he walked down the caliche driveway towards the backdoor.

"To true cuz, how can two pussies grow balls, they must be transvestites." Said Chapa as they both laughed wildly.

Damian stood up and looked out the kitchen window, he caught a glimpse of Mando, Chapa and Maria. Mando was up front, he was shirtless holding the shotgun which was wrapped in white sheets. Chapa was behind him wearing a white wife beater, and Maria followed close behind.

They reached the door, Mando tried it, but it was locked. Maria walked to the front and fumbled around with her keys about to unlock it.

"Shotgun coming in first, I'm hitting mandi, carlos you hit Chapa. And by the way, maria is with them" whispered Damian.

Carlos nodded in agreement, Damians body was shaking, cold fear mixed with adrenaline forced his heart to overexert and make his hands clammy. If he was to speak right now he would be choked up.

The door unlocked and opened, the sheet covered shotgun came through the door first followed by an arm. Mando wasnt expecting it, his head was turned to the left staring at chaps laughing. Time slowed down for Damian, he noticed Mando had an owl tattooed on his chest. A rosary tattooed around his neck and for a split second Mando turned around and faced straight spotting Damian but it was already to late. Time sped up and Damians arm lunged toward driving his switchblade deep into Mandos gut. At this point Damian felt an overwhelming rage take over, it was kill or be killed. Mando dropped the 12 gauge as soon as he was stabbed. Damian grabbed Mandos arm and pulled him closer turning him around so Mandos back was to his chest. He wrapped his left hand around Mandos waist and stabbed him again with his right hand. Damian looked down to see the shotgun, he used his right foot and kicked it across the room.

"Get the fucking shotgun" damian yelled

Carlos was already lunging towards chapa as this was happening. He wrapped his arms around chapa and suplexed him over his shoulders landing on the table. Carlos stood back up almost instantly and like clockwork rene was there to stab chapa in the chest with his kitchen knife. The two men cried in pain as they felt the coldness of the steel entering and leaving their bodies. Carlos pulled out his gun and smashed the butt into the top of Chapas skull immediately creating a gaping hole which blood started to gush from. Carlos and rene dragged chapa to the backroom through the hallway and Damian looked back at Mando. Damian continued to stab mando in the gut, counting the many swings. When he counted eleven, he moved up to the chest cavity. After eleven he moved to the face, once in the cheekbone and three times in the mouth. Damian moved the top of Mandos head afterwards, at the time he didn't know how strong a human skull really was, so when he stabbed with a downward thrust, the knife broke off the handle causing the blade to separate from the wood. Damian grabbed the blade itself and held it in his hand and continued to stab the top of Mandos head. In the process of doing this, the blade sliced through Damians pointer finger. The cut was deep, it ran from the nail to the palm and all the way to the bone.

"Ok enough, please stop, you got me in my gut man and it wont stop" Mando Pleaded with Damian.

Damian could see blood literally squirting out of the holes in Mandos Body. The only reason he was still standing was because of Damians Adrenaline holding him. Damian remembered that he didn't wanna be there, with that he walked Mando towards the hallway and pushed him to the floor, which was dark red now completely covered In blood. Damian walked into the bedroom to the right, Carlos was caving in Chapas skull with the butt of the gun, while rene continuously stabbed him in the back with a kitchen knife. Damian felt sick, he thought was he did was terrible, but walking into this room seeing this. The curtains and the ceiling were splattered in blood, the walls were covered in red, and the mattress was completely soaked. Damian tugged at Carlos and yelled at him to leave with him, this house was beginning to look like a torture chamber instead of a crime scene. Reluctantly Carlos and Rene broke away and left the room. As Damian entered the kitchen, Maria was reaching for the 12 gauge on the floor. Damian quickly pulled it away from her and swung the gun like a bat at her head, connecting with a heavy blow that knocked her out. Damian then said "fuck it", he cocked back gun and put it to Mandos head. He was practically dead anyway, he was gonna put this dude out of his misery. He pulled the trigger but the gun made a clicking sound. It must have been jammed, so Damian started fiddling with it trying to unjam it.

"Let's get the fuck out of here" yelled carlos.

"Where the fuck are we gonna go?" Yelled Damian.

The three boys headed out the back door and into the backyard, they jumped the stretch of knocked down fence, they passed two yards then hid the shotgun by a privacy fence. They continued to run down the alley but saw a patrol car and cut through a yard. Carlos ran beside Damian in a crouched position trying to avoid detection. Damians hand was gushing out blood and his head was pounding heavily already going into shock from blood loss. Damian tore off a piece of his shirt and wrapped it around his right pointer finger tightly in Hope's that it would stop the heavy blood loss. Rene had fallen behind but he had caught up now, his shirt drenched in blood. Just then a patrol car came from around the corner with his spotlight on surveying the neighborhood looking for the three boys.

"Quick, get under this car" said Carlos.

The boys quickly crawled underneath the car with their heads up watching as the patrol car creeped up and stopped at the car they were under. Their hearts were pounding, they knew what they had done and didn't wanna get caught. The patrol car slowly pulled away and turned the corner. The black cadillac was behind it which pulled immediately after the cop left. The boys stayed underneath the car just in case. Damians father said "get to the park, take off all your clothes and dump them in the trash can. I will be there to pick you up." His Cadillac then drove away.

"Fuck, the park is three blocks away." Whispered Carlos in a strained voice.

"If we move along the sides of houses and cars, we could use their shadows and not get caught." Replied Damian.

The three of them did exactly that all the way to the park, cutting through yards and alleys to get to their destination. Once they arrived, they saw a big metal bin which they stripped off all their clothes and threw them in. The Cadillac pulled up like clockwork, Monster got out of the car, handed all three boys new clothes then proceeded to pour gas which he had in a bottle into the metal bin. He lit a match and tossed it in, all four got into the car and drove away. Monster drove for about an hour out of town before pulling into a garage. Socks was there, he closed the garage behind the caddy.

"Come over here Damain". Said socks

Damian walked over to socks, socks inspected the deep cut, he then poured rubbing alcohol on it which burned Damian to the core. It hurt worse then the actual wound did. Socks reached into the corner of the wall and pulled some cobweb out, he placed it along the edges of the wound then wrapped Damians finger with gauze pads and tape.

"The cobwebs work the same as stitches, they will close your wound." Said Socks quietly.

"The 3 of you are going to be staying here a while till the heat dies down. I will return from time to time with fresh blankets and clothing as well as food. Yall did good." Said Monster.

Damian looked around, it was an open garage, there were doors on the right he had hoped led to some rooms where they would sleep. His birthday had came and gone, He was sure to remember this day for the rest of his life, the screams, the crying, and all the blood. The smell was something he couldnt tear away from for some reason, it was like once his nose smelled the fresh spilled blood I stayed fixated on it. He walked through the doors and saw a small twin bed. Damian laid down and closed his eyes, falling asleep almost instantly.

Chapter 5-New Horizons

Damian had already had two birthdays sitting inside that old safehouse, he knew every square inch of it by memory. Sometimes he wished he had been caught and just went to prison because that's what that safehouse felt like. Life as he knew it was turning dull, he had the same routine everyday. Wake up, get dressed, workout, eat, excercise, eat, workout, eat and back to sleep. As far as his social life went he had gotten to know Carlis and Rene extremely well living with them for two years. He often thought about Mary in her red dress, and high heels coming down the staircase to be with him. Where was she now, did she move on? Would she remember him or forgive him for leaving so suddenly without warning? What about his mother, how was she taking him being gone for so long?

Brakes could be heard screeching to a stop outside the safehouse. Then a second set a brakes came to a stop. In two years the three men were only used to hearing one set of brakes which was the Cadillac.

"Cops!!! Hide!!!" Yelled Damian.

The three Men hid behind some old boxes in the corner and waited. The safehouse door opened and Monster walked in with Socks.

"Alright boys, no more heat, pack your shit and let's go home." Said Monster.

"Damian, Lazy sends his thanks in the form of a gift, its waiting outside" said Socks.

Damian walked outside to see a Cadillac V-16 sitting in back of his fathers car. It was solid grey with maroom fenders and white walls. The inside was black leather with a manual transmission. A note could clearly be seen on the glove box that said "open me". Damian opened the glove box to find a gun and a note. As he opened the note, half of a button fell out onto the floor. The other half of the button was glued to the note. The Note said, "No Witnesses, Maria" underneath the first sentence was a second sentence that read "Bad Blood, Monose". On the bottom it read "burn after reading". Damian knew exactly what that message meant, he quickly turned on a match and lit the note on fire before placing the gun back in the glove box. Carlos and Rene walked out and looked completely surprised when they saw Damians new car, they also looked a little envious at the thought of Lazy only looking after Damian and not them. Damian couldnt look Carlos in the eyes as Carlos laid congrats on him for his gift. Damian had to get to Maria before Carlos could but he wasnt sure how he was going to do it.

"Hey D let's ride back to town" said Carlos excitedly.

"I actually have some business to take care of, I'm gonna ride alone today. Maybe tomorrow buddy" replied Damian.

Damian wasnt lying, on top of the new business Lazy had given him, he was in that safehouse for a long time with those two guys. He really just wanted to be alone for a while. Carlos walked away with a puzzled look on his face as Damian stepped inside his new car and drove away. He had never been down this way before but as he neared the end of the road there stood a sign that read "Carlisle Grove 25 Miles Left". He couldnt believe that they were this close to town this whole time. As he got closer into town he spotted the sign for County Road 665, so he made a right. Damian drove all the way down till he got to Farm Road 336 and made a left. Memories of Mary, Nick and Jenny overpowered his thought process as he drove down the small back road. Damian spotted Jenny coming out of her house and he drove by slowly, then Nick came out of her house too. He quickly shifted his car into reverse and up to the driveway, then shifted back into drive and continued up the driveway. Nick spotted his car first but looked puzzled as he didn't recognize it. He reached for his back pocket slowly as if to pull a gun before Damian slowly got out of the car.

"Hey Damian! Long time no see buddy how ya been? Said Nick with a huge grin on his face.

"Wow, he finally Graces us with his presence" says Jenny Sarcastically.

"Hey guys, sorry I had some business to take care of and I had to leave town for a while" replied Damian.

As the three friends were catching up, Mary stepped out of Jenny's house, she looked awfully mad but happy at the same time. She walked right up to Damian and slapped him, then hugged him and kissed him. It was the first time in two years Damian had touched her, hugged her, or felt her lips on his. His heart melted again and it was like he never left.

"You know I was pretty mad when I couldnt find you anymore, you never came to my house again. When you asked me to run away with you that night on your birthday, i was shocked. I didn't know what to say, but if i had known that night that i wasnt going to see you again for two years then i would have said yes. I loved you then and I love you still." Said Jenny with tears in her eyes.

"Hey Damian, the night after you left, two boys got murdered, it was all over the news and the papers. They said it was a gangland slaying, is that why you left? Said Nick.

"Shutup Nick you should know better not to be asking those kind of questions, Damian isnt in a gang. Right Damian? Said Jenny as the three of them stared at Damian.

Damian felt like they had put him on the spot, but he didn't spend two years in hiding just so he could come in and rat himself out like that, so he changed the subject by answering their question with another question.

"So how have yall been? Anything happen while I been gone?" Asked Damian.

"Well theres thomas" said Nick with a grin

"Shut your mouth Nick, I swear you always gotta say something stupid" said Jenny.

"Whose thomas?" Asked Damian with a concerned look as he stared at Mary.

"Well about a year and a half after you left I started dating a guy named thomas, he was so sweet to me. He comforted me as I was broken up about never seeing you again. One night he tried to make a move on me, and I declined. I told him I was saving myself for marriage and I wasnt that kind of girl. He got mad and slapped me, now I feel like hes stalking me." Said Mary.

"What do you mean hes stalking you?" Asked Damian.

"Well almost every night now, I've seen him outside my window at home, watching me. We even saw him down by the creek when we were swimming, luckily Nick was there and scared him away. But I'm beginning to get scared, what if he catches me alone and Nick isnt there to help me." Cried Mary.

Damian felt anger rush through his body, he had never felt an anger this powerful before. How dare that man attempt to scare his woman he thought.

"Him and his buddies usually hang out at this old abandoned house on the edge of town" blurted out Nick.

"Let's go" replied Damian.

Damian and nick jumped in the car and reversed out of the driveway.

"Hey man alot has changed since you been gone. I picked up some work, started selling dope. I needed the money to help with the Bills out at the ranch." Said nick.

"That's a dangerous game your playing nick, these streets are pretty rough when it comes to things like that" replied Damian.

"Yeah well I got this thing going on today, I have to go pick up two keys from a connect I just met. I'm not sure who he runs with but the whole deal seemed kinda shady from the jump. First they wanted to meet at a pub, now they wanna meet down a backroad outside of town in the sticks. You think you could go with me? Said Nick.

"That does sound kinda shady, yeah I'll go with you buddy." Replied Damian.

As Nick and Damian pulled up to the abandoned house, they could see movement inside. It looked to be three men, one sitting on the window drinking a beer and the other two standing by a wall smoking. Damian reached over and opened his glove box which had his piece inside. He grabbed it and stuffed in in his waist line. Nick's eyes widened

"So it is true, you are connected" nick whispered.

Damian just grinned as he exited the car. Nick and Damian slowly opened the front door and slipped inside. From the backroom they could hear chattering from the men inside.

"I was with this little bitch for three months and she didn't wanna open her legs. What a fucking tease huh? So I smacked the bitch and says listen here, I'm gonna get this stink one way or another' said thomas as all three men laughed.

"I been watching her house, I think im gonna sneak in tonight and impregnate that little bitch." He said as they laughed again.

Nick walked into the room where the men were laughing first.

"Hey Nick! You fucking lost boy?" Yelled Thomas angrily.

Damian walked in after him, gun already drawn and shoots Thomas in the chest sending the beer flying out of his hands. Damian looks at the other two men quickly and fires two more shots. All three men are down on the floor, two of them fatally wounded with gunshots to the head. Thomas is screaming in pain and yelling obscenities at Damian.

"That little bitch you were planning on raping tonight? Not gonna happen." Says Damian as he busts another round into Thomas' skull.

Nick immediately throws up and drops to his knees, he had no idea this situation would unfold the way it did. He looked at Damian but saw only hatred and darkness in his eyes. Nick rose and tugged on Damians shirt, urging him to leave the scene with him. They both got back inside the car and drove off.

"Woah what the fuck man!!!" Nick yelled.

"You heard what was going to happen tonight, I had to do what I had to do." Said Damian calmly.

"Let's get back to my house, I gotta pick up the money. Holy fuck man. Forgive me if it takes the rest of my life to get over what just happened." Said Nick still in shock.

"Is it something I need to be worried about?" Replied Damian looking at Nick with a very Grim look on his face.

"N..no worries bro, just warn me next time" said Nick trying to hide the fear in his voice.

The car pulled up to Nick's and Damian waited inside as nick ran inside and ran back out in a new set of clothes and a briefcase in his hand. Damian drove away with nick, heading to the spot where this shady deal was supposed to happen.

All this shit happening on the first day he left the safehouse, he almost wanted to go back he thought. He felt as if he was losing his grip on reality, but who was he kidding. The incident two years ago let him know what he could do to handle business and how he could get away with it. He felt hardened, almost a careless attitude. Life didn't matter anymore, he feared he was growing cold. Is that what it took to live this lifestyle? He had to get this deal done, take Nick back home and still complete the work the note had entailed.

As they pulled up to the spot, they noticed three men standing outside, their car was parked out of view, possibly in the bushes somewhere. Nick and Damian exited the car with the briefcase full of money. The three men pulled out guns and pointed them at Nick and Damian.

"I cant believe this stupid kid actually showed up, I get a free dinner tonight and these mothafuckers are gonna bury themselves" said the man in the middle as he chuckled to himself.

Damian drew his gun and pointed it at the man in the middle.

"Woah woah there little cupcake, cant you see your outnumbered? I can have thirty bullets in you before you even ring out one. Did you two punks actually think I Adam Barista was actually gonna give you two keys? Said the guy in the middle.

"Cory, bring us two shovels from the car!!" Adam yelled to an unseen accomplice.

Damian knew in his gut they had lost but he was determined to go out shooting. He cocked the hammer on his pistol and kept his arm up aiming at Adam. Nick looked like he was going to vomit again, he had a sick look to him.

"I'm sorry I brought you here" whispered Nick as he patted Damians Shoulder.

Cory ran from behind the bushes with two shovels but stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Damian. A cold sweat dripped from his brow as he slowly walked up to Adam.

"Hurry up with those shovels you dumb bastard" yelled Adam.

"Th..th..the one with gun is M..Monsters kid." Studdered Cory in fear.

"Motherfucker!!!" Yelled Adam in rage.

"I told my father about this meeting, he said Lazy, Sniffs and him would meet us out here." Lied Damian.

"Listen kid we meant nothing by this, but was just business you see. Give your father my regards." Said Adam as all his men lowered their guns.

Cory brought a briefcase from the car which he laid on the floor and opened. Two kilos of Cocaine sat inside, he motioned for Damian to take it. He then headed towards Nick's briefcase full of money but Damian trained his gun on him.

"We will accept the drugs as payment for this misunderstanding, and we will also keep the money. Unless you feel you like dying over it instead." Said Damian.

Adam clearly wasnt happy at the certain turn of events as stared at Damian with evil eyes. But he had no choice, he motioned for his men to stand down and leave. Damian knew this wouldn't be the last time he would run into adam but he was happy to leave this situation with his life. Nick quickly picked up the suitcase of drugs along with the money and took them to Damians Car. They both jumped in and burned off out of there.

"I'll take one kilo as tribute" Demanded Damian.

"Ok" was all Nick could muster up, wondering what and who he got mixed in with.

Damian dropped Nick off at his house and headed back into town. All this driving around had left his fuel tank almost empty. He pulled into a store where he could get his car serviced without leaving the driver seat. The store was called Calicos, it looked quite new painted shiny red. There was a mechanic shop on the side of the tiny snack market that was connected.

"Fill it up" said Damian to the attendant.

"That's what she said" replied the attendant quickly.

Damian burst out laughing, he had never heard that joke before and he hadn't had a good laugh in a long time. Damian paid the attendant and went on his way, it was getting late and he had unfinished business. He took a drive to the stadium behind the school. He remembered back when he was a student that all the women would flock to the track to get their run on to stay fit and looking good. As he pulled around the school he spotted Maria leaving the track alone. She also spotted his car but didn't know it was him yet. She kept walking down the street heading for the door. Damian knew as soon as he was spotted she would either run or scream. He couldnt take that chance, but she needed to be silenced. She was a witness that could put him away. The street that he was on was a long narrow road from a residential area to the stadium mostly used by the buses for football games, about a quarter mile down this narrow road was a curve to the right. Upon taking the curve there was a corn field on the left and the rear of the school on the right. The road stretched a couple hundred feet then curved right again to the side of the school. Going straight from there would place you in the parking lot. Maria had just left the stadium and seen the Cadillac in the direction of the residential area so turned left to walk around the school the back way.

Damian crept along the narrow road stalking his prey as a lion was stalking a zebra. She noticed the car following her and crossed the road quickly, turning to the right and disappearing behind the school. Damian stomped on the gas and rounded the curve almost going off the road, he could see Maria in a full sprint heading for the second right curve. He hit the gas and got behind her almost instantly, she jumped to the left at the last second and the front bumper clipped her leg as she fell to the floor. Her leg was bleeding heavily as she picked herself up and ran into the cornfield. Damian parked his car and gave chase, he couldnt fire his gun that close to the school so he needed to catch her quickly as she was screaming bloody murder. Luckily with her broken leg she wasnt able to get very far before Damian caught her. As he ran up to her he shoved her to the floor and jumped on top of her quickly placing both hands on her head and jerked viciously to the left. He heard her neck snap and crack as she stopped moving. Maria lay dead on her stomach in the cornfield. Damian pulled her skirt up and dropped her panties to her knees, he tore her blouse a bit and removed her earrings from her ears then proceeded to tear the crops out of the ground and lay them on top of her body successfully hiding her. This way if she was found it would look like a rape gone wrong. He walked out of the cornfield looking both ways to make sure he wasnt seen then hopped in his car and left.

Damian pulled into the carwash, he got on his knees and scrubbed out the blood on his front bumper, luckily there was no visible damage as her legs were small and frail. He quickly threw away the rags and drove away. To much had already happened today he thought, he really needed a glass of whiskey to calm his nerves.

Damian entered "The Bloody Knuckle" it was an establishment that had become famous when two patrons started a tradition where both parties placed the knuckles on the table. One party would flick a quarter at the other parties knuckle. The first person to create a pocket sized hole in the opponent's knuckle would win the bet and drink for free all night.

"Can I get a whiskey" damian said as he motioned the waitress over.

"Sure thing" said the waitress as she slid a cup of whiskey across the counter.

He remembered that night on his birthday, as he thought of what he had to do. Now it felt much much worse. The visions of Death and screams filled his head up, it was louder then the local chatter at the bar. He almost wanted to jump up and yell "Shut the Fuck" but it was only in his head. The door to the bar opened and in walked two males with a lady. They were chatting and laughing at a joke he hadn't heard. They kept pointing at the closing bar door, suddenly right behind them, Monose entered the bar. The two males and the female must have been his friends, making jokes about his mole perhaps. They all headed to the back of the bar where a booth sat. They all sat down and began to talk. Damian moved closer but was careful not to be seen.

"So I told him, look here you Lazy cunt, cause that his name get it?' Laughed Monose.

"So I tell him, look here you Lazy cunt. I dont work for you, you work for me. I'm out here making these collections, it should be my money not yours. If you want a cut, then you need to get off your ass and take what's yours" said Monose as he howled in laughter.

"I'll be right back I'm going to go drain the snake" he joked.

There were no bathrooms in that bar, Damian knew that Monose would have to pee in the back alley. He stayed far behind Monose as they left the bar. Monose entered the alleyway and walked a good ways to some junk fruit that had been thrown out the night before from the bar apparently. He unzipped his pants and began to pee, softly whispering a tune. Damian pulled out his switchblade and walked softly down the alleyway. Monose was so drunk he didn't even hear Damian as he walked up on him. Damian put his left arm around Monoses head and swung his right arm around and stabbed him in the chest, then he quickly ran his blade from the left side of his neck to the right side, completely slicing his throat and severing a main artery. Monose fell to the floor bleeding out as Damian walked away down to the other end of the alleyway. He had to walk around the block and circle his way back around to where his car was parked. Once inside he left the bar and headed to Luckys. He pulled his car around the rear where he spotted Monster sharing a smoke with Socks. They saw him and motioned for him to follow them inside. Lazy sat at the table inside and was joined by Socks, sniffs, and Monster.

"Its time we bring you into this thing of ours" says Monster in a Serious Tone.
