Quick was sitting at his desk at home.  A Half bottle scotch, which was depleting rather fast, do to the chain of events he recently endured.  As he sat drinking the scotch, he was also playing back how "HELL" broke loose in these streets. 

Quick knew, that the Mafia life wasn`t  a  pleasent  one.  He also knew, death was around every corner.  So many miles traveled, so much blood shed. Quick blinks an shakes his head, trying to shake the faces, an lower the screams for mercy. This was his first time, experiencing  "WAR".  It`s only been a little over a week since Quick swore an oath, to his beloved family "The Rourke Moonshine Co."  And already he was out making his bones.

"EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING SO FAST...  I DIDN`T SEE ANY OF THIS COMING,  ALTHOUGH THIS TYPE OF THING IS COMMON IS THIS LIFE WE LIVE"  *QUICK THOUGHT TO HIM SELF.

Taking his last shot of scotch, quick got up, went into the bathroom to wash his face. looking in the mirror thinking...

"AIN`T NO TURNING BACK NOW....  I HAVE GREAT TEACHERS, AN SO MUCH TO LEARN.  HOPEFULLY,  I`LL MAKE IT TO THE TOP.  IF NOT, I`LL DAMN SURE ENJOY MYSELF ON THIS  JOURNEY.  ONCE YOUR IN, YOUR IN...."

Quick gathered himself, An was on his way to do his part in the Moonshine business. "Hat" check...  "Coat" check...  "Gloves" check...   "Pistol"  check...  

Quick gave a sly peek out of the corners of each window, surveying all movement.  Satisfied, he then opened the door an exited his home.  Ready to take on the task of what this day would bring...  because you never know. 

A few days later....  

Quick returned home. Took off his hat, his coat, an his gloves. he kept his pistol for precaution...  but he was calmer then usual.

Almost like a new man...

He WAS a new man. The day he left, held the big event an tragedy he EVER witnessed. 

" FAMILY IS EVERYTHING...  WITHOUT THEM I`M NOTHING.  I FOLLOW THE RULES, AN EXECUTE ALL ORDERS.  NO QUESTIONS  ASKED"

Quick returned home this day a Made Man...   The events that took place shook him to his very core. Took him as fast as he wanted to go. an now, this was the new him.  Cerebral, an quick witted...  Loyal member of The RoryRourke Moonshine Co.

He`d give his life for RoryRourke in a heart beat...  Rory gave him a new life, an a wonderful family that never made him feel down or left him out.  Everyday is a lesson, an he learns something new in the Moonshine Business.

" I GOTTA GET SOME SHUT EYE...  WITH NEW RANK COMES MORE RESPONSIBILITIES.  CAN`T AFFORD TO SLACK A BIT...  THAT COULD BE LETHAL.

I ALSO WANNA LEAVE EARLY ENOUGH TO STOP BY THE SPUD FARM, AN CHAT WITH LUCY A BIT.  SHE`S VERY WISE,  AN I COULD USE THE KNOWLEDGE SHE DROPS.

ON TOP OF THAT,  I WANNA GIVE HER MY CONDOLENCES PERSONALLY CONCERNING HER FRIEND (EMONEY)"

Quick jumped in the shower, an got himself ready for bed.  As he layed there ready to dose off...  

He smiled an prayed to god for the first time in many years...   Thank you, for "This Thing Of Ours".  AMEN.

Welcome to the family my friend, you have worked tirelessly for me since the first day you set foot on these shores. It is an honour to open the books to you. 

Quick gives RoryRourke a firm hand shake, an a brotherly hug....
