A Young Man. Started by: Silence on Aug 14, '08 20:42
*A young man walks aimless around the streets of Chicago looking for something to do. You can tell by looking at the boy that he is new to America and probably has no home. He is wearing torn pants and an old beat up shirt that looks to not have ever been washed before.*


As the young man walks down the sidewalk he sees a stick laying on the ground, so he picks it up and begins drumming on the walls, trash cans, window shops, anything he could find to hit with the stick. The boy lowers his head and keeps strolling down the street past a big stone building. As the boy strolls by he takes a look into the window, not to be nosy but just curious. Inside he sees a few Finely dressed men with their classy suites and crisp brim fedoras all sitting around a table chatting.


The little boy gazes through the window and thinks to himself 'Man...What I would do for a suit like that. I wish I could be important like those guys.' The boy turns to walk away and sees a nickel on the ground next to the front door of the building, so naturally he goes to pick it up.

As the boy grabs the nickel the front door swings open and a man stands hovering high above him.


"What ya doin down there boy" - the man says with a bold voice,


"ummm...ummm....I saw this nickel Sir and was picking it up. you can have it Sir"


The boy extends his arm to give the money to the man. The man reaches out and takes the nickel from the boy. He looks at it flipping it around before handing back to the boy.


"You keep this my young friend" - The man says with a smile


"Thank you sir oh thank you. I came here with my father a few days ago and we were split up," - the boy says starting to tear up.

The man reaches down and puts his arm on the boys shoulder


"Don't worry young one, I will give you food and shelter, in return you will work odd jobs and do little errands for me"

The boy looks up at the man and smiles from ear to ear...


"Thank you Sir, I will do anything you need you have my word"

The man puts his arm around the boy and walks him into the building. first I would like for you to do a little job for me. I would like for you........

Monty grins as Silence walks in with the young boy and sits back down at the table.


"Hmm, who's that eh? A little cleaning up and he looks like he'd be rather presentable."

Monty signals the waiter who quickly rushes back with Monty's coat and puts it over the boys shoulders.


"Hmm, what ya think? It's a good look for him, I mean, we really can't send him out there tattered that way can we? He'll get himself killed in no time that way."

Monty grins at the boy and slides him an envelope.


"Now promise me son, you'll spend that on a haircut, a shave, and some decent lookin' clothes eh? What you got this boy doin for you anyways Silence?"

Silence stares the young man up and down


"Hmmm...I think this look works for this kid but its still missing something"

Silence thinks for a minute, before taking off his fedora and placing it on the kids head


'much better my friend. we will make you into a gentleman yet'


'Well young man my first job will be this. I would like for you to go to the the hat shop on the corners of Tommy and Gun streets and collect some cash there for me. If you can complete this task then I shall move you onto better things'

Silence signals for a man to bring the car around the front of the building. He then leans over and whispers into -Montiego- ear....'go with him and make sure everything is ok'


"Well son, I am gonna send -Montiego- here with you just to keep an eye out. if anything goes down he will help you out"


"-Montiego-....take care of our new friend here...show him the ropes and give him the breakdown of what to do in the car"

"Which one do you like more?" Falcon asks the man


"I personally like one with the blue.... gives it kind of a smooth look."


"Alright, I'll take it." Falcon starts to pull out his wallet when a young kid walks through the door. He looks dirty and unshaven, but suprisingly has on a fairly nice hat and coat.

The young boy walks up to the man, and starts talking in a somewhat low voice


"Ummm.... excuse me sir... but I was sent here to collect some money."


"Oh yeah, and who sent you?" The man looks over at Falcon, as if he doesn't know what to do.


"Who sent ya kid?" The Falcon asks...


"Well sir, Im not quite sure of his name... he never gave it to me.."

The cashier laughs and then waves the boy off, returning to his conversation with The_Falcon

As the boy is leaving The Falcon watches him head towards the door, and sees Monty's car outside.


"Hey kid, come over here."

The kid does as he's told and face the Falcon, face to face.


"Did you come with that man out there?"


"Why yes sir, I did...."

The Falcon turns around and faces the cashier....


"Well in that case, I'd give the boy the money.

The cashier counts out a few dozen bills and puts them in an envelope, handing to the boy.


"Wait here for just a second lad."

The Falcon pulls out his wallet, and and grabs a few bills, handing them to the cashier.


"Thanks for the advice" The Falcon adds, as he leaves the store with the boy.

I am going to muster up a few of my associates so that we may punish this paedophile. Odd jobs indeed, for shame.
