Tommy walks out of an alley and stands on a soup box.

Ehem. Excuse me ladies and gentlemen,I have descovered something...i have to share with somebody..So,I figured I'd come share it with you great people. My father,Jimmy Peggorino,had past away when I was just 7. Now,14 years later,I came to the family plantation...He grew weed there,the laws thought he was just some farmer.When I walked into the old abandoned house,and into my fathers room,there was a book,and in that book,Told his life story...So,I will mention all the main things,the important stuff,reuce it from about 200 pages to 2.Here it is.

' 1901-January 24, We got off the boat today,me,and my father arrived to America not but five hours ago. When we got off,there were Americans throwing rocks,and beating us immigrants up.my father was hit with a stone.But we managed to make to my uncles house.My uncle has lived in America for quite some time now. When we got me uncles house,he,and his family  welcomed us,there were four other children,my cousins,that I played with.We had dinner,and went to bed.

I woke up in the middle of the night,I heard voices,I got up to see,I saw two men with guns,they had one aimed at my uncle,and the other,my aunt Marie.My father was in bed sleeping.Unti he was awoken by gunshots,and found his brother and sister-in-law dead.My father swore he would get vengeance on  his family.He met a man named William De' Santis.He took him in I guess.I remember my dad not being there at night any more with me...I remember what it felt like to not say "Goodnight dad,I love you."

He died when I was 16,it was 1905,and I was to follow my fathers footsteps,and join William De' Santis,but a few months before I did,a war broke out between Philidelphia,and Los Angeles,William didn't make it through the war.

So,when I was 26,I was taken in by a man named Gaius,Don Gaius. I met a very fine women,Marie Gato.A year later,we had a child.Tommy,at first he was to be Tommy Peggorino,but we liked Gato better.When Tommy was three years old,I was 30,I made a big mistake in the streets.Gaius hunted me down,I ran..Not because I was afraid to die,I made a mistake,and I would take it like a man,but I had to say goodbye to my son.My wife wouldn't let me go,I told her it had to be done.So I wrote this last chapter in my journal that you're reading now,before I go to take my punishment.I love you Tommy,Goodbye.'

The crowd lookd at Tommy as a tear dropped from his eye.

Thank you for listening.Goodbye.

Tommy jumps off the soap box and walks back into the alley in which he came out of.

Its really late and I may have done the simple math wrong, but if I am correct that means it is 1933. Interesting.
