(OOC: Open RP)

Jonny coasted his weathered 1919 rusted Caddilac up to the bar. He needed money, and this was probably the only way. He looked at the letter that was given to him at the reading of his father's will. And knew this adress was right. It was a seedy bar. He forgets what city, but  the letter stated to ask for whiskey and coke, no ice. He didn't know all of the people in there, and he doesn't know how many people in there get whiskey and coke... But he walked in and went straight up to the bar. He waited for the barkeep to walk up and then Jonny spoke up.

Hey, barkeep.

What'll it be for tonight, mac?

I'll have a whiskey and coke.

The barman walks off and gets Jonny's drink. After Jonny gets his drink, he sips it, and tries as best as he can to look around the bar to see who he might be meeting, without looking like a paranoid moron. Then Jonny sees a person walking towards him...

Johnjo was sitting in the back room when the barkeep came and whispered something into his ear. Johnjo got up quickly and entered the main area. He found a seat and when the barkeep signaled to him the location of the guy who'd dare uttered the password, he immediately stood up. He made his way over to the kid and sat down. As he was sitting he pulled his pistol out and held it underneath the table, keeping it aimed at the guts belly.

" Who are you and how did you learn of this code? Think carefully before you answer"

Jonny leaned on the bar, and looked at Johnjo. Noticing his hand under the bar. Jonny nonchalantly slips his hand facing away from Johnjo into his pocket, which had his .38 special.

I'm Jonny. Jonny Trapani. I learned that code from my father. I also learned how to use a pistol from my father, so I suggest that you stow yours.

Johnjo smiled. This kid had a set of balls on him. Good to know.

Your father may have taught you how to shoot, but he didn't teach you how to use it. Either that or you didn't pay attention to him if your really sitting here threatening a Made Man. Even if you were able to shoot me before I ended you, My friends here wouldn't be too happy about that turn of events. Now put your gun away and follow me to the back where we can discuss your father.

I learned to use a gun when thugs invaded my mothers house, right after my father's death. Four corpses are rotting in my mother's basement right now.

Jonny takes his hand out of his pocket and follows the man to the back room.

"Hard way to learn kid". Johnjo says as they walk away. <"but hey, we all had to learn sometime. At least now you know what your capable of".

As they sit down in the back room, a scantily clad woman approaches and places a drink in front of the both of them. " Now tell me kid. What do you know of your father's activity in our fair city??

Jonny looks at his drink and swirls it around before setting it back down.

True. But true victory is achieved by staring into the jaws of defeat. By the way, what city are we in? Someone probably sedated be, but all I know is that I woke up in a bed in some shitty hotel room.

At hearing this Johnjo frowns. The situation already was looking bad and now this. my friend. We're in Philly. Are you sure you cant remember who the hell did this? No sooner did Johnjo stop speaking did a man come bursting into the back room. Hey! There are some guys out in Front looking for somebody. The descriptions match him. he nods towards Jonny. Johnjo pulled out his weapon and said "come on kid. We gotta get outta here. Before we start fightin we gotta see whats up first.

Cross was outside sitting on the hood of his Buick, his fedora was shading part of his face from the heat of the sun. He looked up as he saw the two men leave the bar. When he saw Jonny clearly he was about to speak, but then he noticed Johnjo, he didn't know him personally but he knew he was a man of stature. He was hesitant

Whats goin' on here?

Jonny approached Cross  and placed his .38 six inches from Cross's nose.

What's goin' on here is that me and my acquaintance here need a ride.

Jonny looks at johnjo for a moment then looks back at Cross, without lowering his gun or his gaze.

Where to Johnjo?

Johnjo shook his head at the boy's actions. "Once again you have pointed your gun at a mademan. But anyway this hardly matters, as we are currently being chased. We're headed for my safe house a few blocks south of here fellas. Johnjo looks at Cross and says " your in this now. No turning back now.

Jonny quickly holsters his pistol and nods to Cross.

Sorry, mate. Security purposes.

He gets into the back passenger seat of the buick and waits for John and Cross.

Cross got into the drivers seat and looked in the rear-view mirror at Jonny

I was asking about you cause your dad was a friend of mine. A good one. He told me to keep an eye out for you, help you along and all. I lined a few pockets to find out where you were.

Ah. Well, I can't give you a refund if that's what you're after. Are you with Johnjo?

Jonny looks back at Cross through the rear view.

Jonny looks at Johnjo as he gets in the car.

Is Cross with you? And what was the job that the code was supposed to make me do anyways?

That code my young freind was used by your father. He used when he needed to let us know he had a newshipment in for us. I don't know how much you know about his business in Philly buy he and I were partners in the Local bootleggin scene. Couple Months back, he disappears. I heard he stepped into some pretty stinky shit. IM not too sure about Cross's involvement but I've hear somethings.

Really. So does that mean we have to snnatch a bootlegging shipment?

Kip had followed jonny to the bar. He knew of jonny's father and some of what his business was in Philly. Kip had been hid from sight by in the darkness which had been afforded him by by the broken street lights.

Kip had to make his move at exactly the right time. He watched them get into the car, and he waited for it to move off. As it approached, Kip strode out from the darkness and stood in the middle of the road blocking the cars direction.

STOP THE CAR! The car screeches to a halt half an inch from the man's knees. Johnjo jumped out of the Car with his Pistol already out. " Who the hell are you and why are you feeling so suicidal.?

Kip knew he was taking a risk that the car would stop, but he knew that leaving jonny on his own could become a problem.

"I am an associate of Jonny and suggest you put your gun down before someone gets hurt. I am not here to cause trouble, in fact i am here as i think i can help you both out. Now are you going to let me in the car or are we going to continue to stand out here in the cold."
