A day in the Life of Rhuarc True Story Started by: _Rhuarc_ on May 28, '08 11:33
It was a bright Tuesday morning, I woke up in my large double bed, not quite a kingsize, bighead got the kingsize but large enough. My room was large, with a wooden floor, a large oak wardrobe and chest of draws, I've got a picture of a hunting scene on the wall with and an en suite bathroom. I liked it, it was fresh and stylish.

I got out of bed, made for the bathroom and had a shower, the room had a large window in the ceiling I opened to let in some fresh air and let the steam out. Once clean, I put on my RHM suit and went to the office just down the hall.

On my way passed bigheads room, I could hear him snoring, it was early and bighead wasn't an early bird. I entered our office, grabbed the mail and got to work, most of it was non-sense so I left it on the side and grabbed a bite to eat. Today was a nothing day, I had no plans, just make some money and check on in some of my contacts.


"Bighead, I'm off out, gotta business deal in Las Vegas to take care of."

I waited to see if it registered, nothing came back so I left, he'd call me if he needed me. On my way out, I saw Quackers in the garden, what a dedicated soldier he was, running at this time in the morning was a regular thing for him, Quackers by name, Quackers by nature.


"I'm off to Las Vegas if you fancy coming mate, nothing major, need to speak to a few people about setting up a permanent drug route.

Quackers slowed for long enough to reply:


"Na mate, got a few things on myself, if it gets heavy, give me all though."

With that he was off. I laughed to myself and made for the car.

The trip to the airport was pretty standard, as was the flight, I landed at 10:50 and headed for the The Flying Teapot, one of my favoured bars in the area. I had a date with Heather_Corleone at 12:30 so I had some time to kill.

I ordered a drink, RobinBanks was a great barman and kept them coming on the house. I enjoyed the time alone, the last few days had been hectic so I was looking forward to a few days to relax. I checked the time, 12:15, said goodbye to Robin and went to meet Heather.

I was walking through Las Vegas, no immediate rush, admiring the city and the cites. Ring Ring, my phone was ringing and I barely even heard it, I answered and was greeted by a frantic Nadia:


"Shit man, SHIT! Get over to Philly Rhuarc, get hear quick, it's bighead, he's been shot!"

Shot? No way! I hailed down a taxi.


"Nadia, are you sure? Your sure he's not fucking about?"

I could hear the panic in her voice, she was serious.


"Please, just get here! He's being taken to our guy in the hospital but I don't think he'll make it Rhuarc, he's in a bad way!"


"FUCK! OK, don't panic, I'm en route!"

With that I hung up and screamed at the taxi driver to put his foot down. The flight was long, far too long, I paced the plane eyeballing anyone that cared to look my way, looking for someone to take my anger and frustration out on.

I landed and made my way to the hospital, Nadia was in the lobby, she stared at me blankly. I knew it was bad news, she didn't even speak, just stood there shaking. I held her and told her it was OK, the family, though vulnerable, would pull through.

Later I would find out bighead was involved in a gun fight, he'd taken his favoured antique pistol, it was a classy looking weapon but not the most practical. He'd shot himself in the chest causing massive internal bleeding which eventually led to his death.

In a complete state of shock, I contacted our members telling them to get to safety, alone they were sitting ducks. We were fortunate, the other families had heard what had happened and we're already offering shelter, something we would all be grateful for.

When I eventually took stock, I was in a new family. I was still trying to contact everyone when I received a call, a call I didn't expect.


"Rhuarc, sad news about bighead, he was a great guy and shall be missed. However business must move on and this leaves us with a dilemma, LA needs a leader. I know your in shock but we'd like you to take the reigns."

Then it hit home, this was Numbers4Glory offering me my own family. I wasted no time in replying!


"It would be an honour, an absolute honour!"

I couldn't believe it, I was still in shock and wasn't sure I was hearing him right, was I being offered my own family?


"I'll announce it shortly, if you need anything, money to set up a HQ, let me know. Oh, one more thing, good luck."

With that, he hung up. I had to pinch myself, it was happening so fast. I flew out to LA straight away to find the streets already deserted, news traveled fast. I knew of a large building for sale uptown, one me and bighead had looked at before. I walked in and saw the for sale sign still there, the number for the real estate company was along the bottom. I called and bought it there and then. I had my own HQ!

If I thought things were hectic before, I had no idea, within the next few hours, I brought together all of our surviving family, dueled AngelicalDeath with a saucepan and spatula (I lost), made up with Heather (wink wink) for missing the date, received two promotions, called upon a good friend to be my RHM (he's ugly as sin so he makes me look good) and was fitted with a nice, new, bold suit.

That night, exhausted, I went to bed in my new kingsize bed.
