Casey and Miguel walked into the Medici building trying their hardest not to let their hesitance show. Casey caught site of his informant almost instantly. She was working the front counter.
"Miguel." Casey said."Go take a seat."
Miguel split off from Casey and sat in the lobby next to a frightened old man. Casey approached Rebecca Trent, his informant.
"Becky," He said."I need a word with you."
"Jesus christ Casey are you trying to get me killed?" Rebecca asked.
"Don't make a scene and you won't be." Casey said.
Rebecca glanced around the lobby."Five minutes, in the restroom." She said.
Casey nodded and walked toward the bathroom. He waited inside for five minutes and Rebecca showed up.
"What's this about?" Rebecca asked.
"I need to find out who hired the hit on Damien's parents." Casey said.
"Casey, I can't help you." Rebecca said."Nicolo is already paranoid about me."
"Then get me in with him."Casey suggested.
"What?" Rebecca said."Are you crazy?"
"I need this information." Casey said.
"Why?" Rebecca asked.
"Damien's after me." Casey said."Maybe if I give him information on who killed his parents he'll leave me alone."
"It's a long shot." Rebecca said.
"But it's a game winner." Casey said.
"Fine." Rebecca said after a few seconds of pondering."But you owe me."
"What do you want?" Casey asked.
Then the door handle turned. The door opened slightly.
"Kiss me." Rebecca said.
"What?"Casey aksed.
Rebecca pulled Casey into a kiss. A man stepped into the bathroom and spotted the two.
"Sorry." He said before leaving and shutting the door.
"I'll let you know later." Rebecca said.
"I'll be waiting." Casey said.
"Come back at four. I'll have an appointment set up." Rebecca said."And be careful Casey Chase."
"That ain't me." Casey said while stepping out the door.
He approached Miguel and grabbed his arm.
"We have an appointment at four." Casey told him.
"A reliable informant." Miguel said.
"Personal friend." Casey said.
"So what do we do until four?" Miguel asked.
"I'm guessing that we won't get any information out of Medici without something to persuade him with." Casey said.
"So we're going to go purchase some persuasion." Miguel said."I like it. So, where will we purchase it from?"
"I haven't decided." Casey said."I'm thinking Wal-mart."
"Wal-mart?" Miguel questioned."I thought you wanted to persuade him, not show him the great deal you got on shoes."
"We need supplies." Casey said."Duct tape, zip ties, the whole nine yards."
"Or we could storm in, shoot everyone, put a gun to his head, and ask him some questions." Miguel said.
"No," Casey said."That won't work. Not in this occasion.We need to be tactful."
As Casey continued discussing ideas Miguel picked up a large chunk of concrete and threw it at one of the windows. The glass shattering caused Casey to turn and address Miguel.
"Are you out of your damn mind?" Casey asked.
"What?" Miguel asked.
Then four caucasians approached them both.
"You two, come with us." One of them said.
"Actually, he threw it and I'm not with him." Casey began.
The same man showed Casey a pistol attached to his side."We'll not be asking again."
"Right." Casey said.
The four men led Casey and Miguel through the lobby. Rebecca caught sight of them and shook her head. Casey shrugged and nodded toward Miguel. They were led down a hall and to an elevator. The elevator was cramped with all six of them inside. The man that spoke to them pushed the button for the top floor.
"So is the whole floor for Medici?" Miguel asked.
"Yes." The leader of teh group answered."The boss gets the last floor to himself."
Another one of the men elbowed the leader and gave him a look that said shut up. Miguel scanned the elevator. Casey knew what he was planning. He was looking for cameras. Casey already knew there weren't any. Why would a mafia leader place cameras in his place of business? All that would do is give the police evidece if they ever decided to arrest said mafia boss. Casey shook his head right before Miguel began his fight in the elevator.
He started by kicking one of them in the groin. Then he punched another in the face. The cramped space of the elevator worked to his advantage. The men weren't able to shoot Miguel. He punched multiple foes at the same time while Casey stood in the corner and watched again. After one went down Miguel got tackled and forced to the ground by the other three. That's when Casey searched the unconcious gangster for a weapon. He found a retractable baton in his jacket pocket and pulled it out to it's full length. Then he smacked one of them in the head with it. The man slid off of the pile clutching his head. Casey hit him again rendering him unconcious. Two remained. Casey smacked the next one in the back with the baton repeatedly. He eventually climbed off the dogpile in pain. Then Casey hit him multiple times in the face. Miguel was able to take out the last one easily by snapping his neck.
"Nice of you to join us." Miguel said while getting to his feet.
"Decided not to wait for an invitation." Casey said.
"What do we do now?" Miguel asked looking at the unconcious and dead men.
"I have an idea." Casey said.
Casey led Miguel through the large hall of the top floor toward Nicolo's office. When he reached it he pushed the doors open.
"Here's the man that broke the window." Casey said.
"Who are you?" Nicolo asked Casey.
"New guy." Casey said.
"Well done new guy." Nicolo said."But I remember sending four to get him."
"Check the elevator." Casey said."This guy's a crazy beast."
"Well then." Nicolo said."You, you decided to throw a rock at my window."
"Yes." Miguel said.
"You just got yourself killed." Nicolo said.
One of the six guys surrounding Medici handed him a gun. Medici took it. Just then Miguel and Casey pulled out their guns and opened fire on the six guys. It was more of a massacre than a gunfight. Mainly beacause only Miguel and Casey were shooting. All of the body guards went down in a hail of bullets and a mist of red. Miguel shot Nicolo in the arm causing the gun to fly from his hands. After all six body guards were dead Miguel and Casey approached Nicolo who was slumped over his desk holding his bleeding arm.
"You morons." Nicolo said."Do you know who I am?"
"A man with answers." Casey said."And I'm a man with questions."
"And I'm crazy." Miguel said.
"What the hell do you want?" Nicolo asked.
"Who hired the hit on Damien's parents?" Casey asked.
"Damien who?" Nicolo asked.
"The one who's parents went to jail." Casey said."You run a nice little business here. I know that that business used to include murderers for hire. And I also know that you're business was used for the hit. Now who used your business?"
"Some lowlife druglord." Nicolo said."He used to own a whole franchise until the feds busted him. Now he runs a crappy little drug club on the waterfront by the docks."
"So-low?" Miguel asked.
"Yeah."Nicolo said."Only his name is Teso Lowens. He supplied the drugs for Damien's parents' drug and whorehouse. He found out they were going to roll over on him so they hired a hitman from me. Young dude fresh to the game. His calling card was especially unique. Something to do with a shell casing."
Casey shot a look at Miguel who was just as surprised.
"You kind of look like him." Nicolo said to Miguel.
"Thanks." Casey said.
"Yeah yeah." Nicolo said."Just don't break nothing else on your way out."
"You understand that I can't let you live." Casey said."You and your business cause this city too much pain. You're like a leech. You drain the finances and life out of everyone."
Casey rose his gun and pressed it against Nicolo's forehead.
"I only pray your a better person in your next life." He said before squeezing the trigger and sending small chunks of skull and brain matter out the back of his head and onto the wall behind him.
"You're a real badass now huh." Miguel said.
"More like a good samaratin." Casey said."When were you going to tell me that you worked the Damien job?"
"I'm sorry." Miguel said."I just knew that he'd come after you because of what I did. I didn't want that on my shoulders."
"But you can live with killing people." Casey said.
"Bad people, like I said. I don't take contracts out on good people. That's why I quit working here. Cases where men or women wanted their husband or wife or child killed for insurances money. It was all so disgusting, ti kept me from sleeping at night." Miguel said.
"Were going back to the docks." Casey said.
"Why?" Miguel asked.
"Because So-low is the man that Damien is after." Casey said."And he's helped me put far worse men in jail. I need to save him."
"Man on a mission." Miguel said.
"Let's get the hell out of here." Casey said."All this death is making me sick."

Brilliant chapter, you and your plot twists, haha; that was awesome. I didn't expect Casey to suddenly shoot Nicolo.
I guess it's only fair that I promise my firstborn son again if I fail to write up a chapter tonight.....change that to tomorrow night, Star Wars has caught my attention....yes Episode II isn't as shitty as I thought it was.

Well, I'm ***, haha. I forgot that today was my grandmother's birthday and had to do a stop by there, and wound up spending a couple hours there and ate some cake (which ironically a co-worker mentioned cake earlier today, a reference to Portal though)
Anyways, I am forced to fail at writing up another chapter seeing as I'm drowsy and full of cake, I'll do my best to make it up to you though, have to try and make something good enough to earn my firstborn back, if not I might have to resort to having my clone father all my children, haha.
