       Thanks WB. It's a great game and I might add chapter titles to
       help people huh?
       7th March 2013
       Blood splattered on the ground behind the Pavano thugs, one was
       hit in the forehead and chest by shots from Philips shotgun and
       the other was struck twice in the stomach and once in the thigh
       from James's MP10. They walked over to Pavano thugs on the
       ground, one was obviously dead and the other was clutching his
       bleeding leg as his vest had stopped the bullets from
       penetrating his stomach.
       He went for his gun when he noticed James and Philip coming at
       them, but Philip was to quick and put a large hole in his head
       also. They reloaded their weapons a they moved towards the boat
       along the docked barge. On the main dock the firefight continued
       with Randy behind the van again clutching his blood soaked
       shoulder and two Pavano thugs were on the ground, both wound,
       one mortally.
       ..."Shoot him, I'll jump on the boat and get the other one"
       James said as they got close to the boat.
       James ran to the edge of the barge and jumped the gap as he did
       the Pavano thug on the boat went to shoot him but was stopped by
       a perfectly placed shot to his unprotected chest, he stumbled
       backwards and fell out of the boat as James landed and
       immediately turned to the face Pavano thug inside the cabin.
       They both fired at each other with bullets passing through the
       windows and thing wall of the cabin but neither were hit, James
       rushed into the cabin and fired another burst again, but the
       thug just got out of the way and tried to shoot James with his
       automatic pistol. James was close enough to the thug to grab the
       pistol and turn it away as it was fired.
       They wrestled for the gun and fired bullets out the side window
       of the cabin and barely missed Philip he jumped to the wooden
       deck of the barge to avoid the bullets. Philip got up and ran
       for the boat and just avoided gunfire from the Capo who noticed
       him. Philip took cover on the boat and fired back at the Capo,
       while James and the thug wrestled on the boat and everybody else
       shot at each other in the darkness of the early morning.
       James overpowered the thug and rammed his head through the
       window of the boat and then smashed it against the wall and let
       th thug dropped to the floor.
       Philip popped his head up to fire back at the Capo and saw his
       brains splatter up the wall and his body crash to the ground,
       Simon ducked back down and grinned at his perfect shot. Philip
       turned around and saw James toss the thug into the water which
       woke him up and he immediately started kicking and panicking in
       the water.
       ..."Let's go!" James said.
       ..."Good idea" Philip said and then jumped to his feet and
       rushed inside to pilot the boat.
       ..."Hey wait, wait!" The thug in the water shouted and then
       tried to grab his gun even though he dropped it on the boat and
       was in the water.
       ..."They got the boat, let's get the hell outta here!" Simon
       shouted.
       ..."Jesse, I'll cover you" Max shouted.
       Jesse rushed back to the van from the concrete barrier and
       helped Randy into the van. Once they were in, both Max and Simon
       got in the van and Simon shot forward as more bullets hit the
       side of the van. Simon turned the van around and started heading
       back the the way they came, which max shooting from the
       passenger side window as they did.
       Jesse leaned out the glassless windows in the back doors of the
       van and fired at the Bobcat pickup truck sitting near the
       warehouse. The bullets riddled the engine of the Bobcat and
       rendered it useless to the surviving four Pavano thugs, one of
       which was in the water and two were wounded.
       James and Philip docked the boat the aforementioned pier and
       other members of the crew were waiting with a Mule to unload it
       and, they started unloading it straight away. It took them ten
       minutes and then as they were leaving, they set fire to the boat
       and left a full Jerry Can in the middle of the boat, hoping it
       would explode and leave a hole in the boat so it would sink.
       The sun was rising over the city when Simon drove the van into
       the garage and Perry closed the door behind them and stood there
       watching as Arnie and Jack dragged Randy from the van and put
       him on a bench they had just cleaned and Arnie went right to
       work on Randy's shoulder.
       James was leaning against the wall near the door to the Parts
       Store waiting to be told he go home and get sleep when came over
       to him with something in a fresh bit of rag. He handed it to
       James and stood there silently. James opened the rag and was
       surprised to find a Colt 45. Pistol with Red grip on the handle
       and a shiny red trigger.
       ..."Where'd you get this?" James asked.
       ..."I found a box of them, all different colours and styles, I
       knew you liked red, so I snatched that one for ya" Perry
       explained.
       ..."Awesome. Thanks for that" James said while examining the
       gun.
       ..."I'm keeping a box of ammunition aside, if you want some just
       come and see me" Perry explained
       ..."Alright" James said with a nod.
       ..."James, Tomorrow, I need you and Allan to do some deliveries
       tomorrow, but you can have the rest of the day off" Mr Flanagan
       said to James as Perry was walking away.
       ..."Sounds good" James said.
       ..."Good" Mr Flanagan said and continued walking.
       James went over to Perry and got a few clips for his gun and
       left the garage and walked along the street and then up the
       grassy hill and through Steinway, cutting across the basketball
       courts  and under the tracks, he walked down the hill and to his
       new home. He walked inside and went upstairs, he left his
       wallet, keys, phone and gun on the bedside table and went
       straight to sleep.

       Not the best couple of chapters. I had this idea fleshed out in
       my head for a long time, but when it came to writing it, it just
       sorta sucked. I'm going to watch a few more gangster movies and
       play some GTA and get back into this properly.

       8th March 2013
       It was drizzling rain but still kind of warm as Mr Flanagan in
       his trench coat walked into the busy nightclub and in tow was
       Byron, Jeffrey and James. James had to let his eyes adjust to
       the flashing, bright and colourful lights of the club compared
       to the dim street lights outside. A short skinny man in a grey
       suit with a black undershirt and no tie rushed over to them and
       greeted them each with a handshake and a respectful hello.
       …”Mr Flanagan so good to see you again” The man said while
       shaking his hand.
       …”Daniel McNamara, how’s your mother?” Mr Flanagan asked.
       …”She’s well. Um, uh, Mr Erickson is waiting for you in V.I.P
       section 2” Daniel explained.
       …”Thanks” Mr Flanagan said and then walked past Daniel and
       Byron, Jeffrey and James followed.
       They walked up the stairs to a section overlooking the rest of
       the club; there were 3 other similar sections around the club.
       Mr Flanagan and Byron took a seat on one of the 2 couches
       separated by a coffee table, James and Jeffrey stood directly
       behind the couch. Sitting on the other couch was John Erickson
       and his main lieutenant
       …”Mr Flanagan, it’s a pleasure” John said and extended his hand.
       …”Same to you John” Mr Flanagan said and reached out and shook
       his hand.
       …”So, we’ll get straight to business then?” John asked.
       …”Sure, I hate clubs, so the quicker, the better” Mr Flanagan
       exclaimed.
       …”Alright, I understand you have a shipment of guns?” John said
       bluntly.
       …”I do, I understand you have a buyer for said guns?” Mr
       Flanagan asked.
       …”I do” John said.
       …”Alright, here is my proposal, I’ll give you the shipment, you
       take it and sell it, and you bring the money back to me. We
       split it 90% to 10%” Mr Flanagan said.
       …”I agree, but it’ll be fifty, fifty” John bargained.
       …”85% to 15% Mr Flanagan said not changing his facial
       expression.
       …”60 to 40” John replied.
       …”80 to 20” Mr Flanagan said.
       …”70 to 30?” John asked hoping he would agree.
       ….”Sounds good” Mr Flanagan agreed to the price.
       …”Okay then, we’ll stop by the garage tomorrow and pick them up”
       John said and then shook Mr Flanagan’s hand again and left the
       club. Soon after Mr Flanagan, James, Jeffrey and Byron left as
       well.
       9th March 2013
       James parked Mr Flanagan’s intruder on the side of the road and
       Max walked out of the shop with a brown paper bag and got in the
       backseat with Mr Flanagan and handed him the bag.
       …”We’re going to Outlook park” Perry stated from the passenger
       seat.
       …”Alright” James said. And pulled back onto the road and
       continued driving.
       James had been driving for Mr Flanagan more and more since
       Oliver’s funeral and James wasn’t sure why, he guessed it was
       because of his size and fighting skills as compared to most over
       guys in the crew, who were better with guns or paper criminals
       as Mr Flanagan called them. The guys who were more suited to
       running booking operations and scams to physical extortion and
       thuggery.
       …”Turn the radio up” Mr Flanagan ordered as he heard ‘Life in
       the Fast Lane’ come on.
       James did as he was told and turned the radio up and the four
       listened to the music in silence as they drove through the busy
       streets of Downtown Broker. They past Outlook Park and James
       parked the car next to the kerb and they waited as an average
       looking man with a heavy Russian accent walked over to the car
       and started talking to them through the window as James turned
       the music down.
       …”Mister Flanagan, Mister Petrovic is sorry for the
       inconvenience of this, but he believes he is under investigation
       and wishes to protect his associates from the investigation.
       He’ll no longer be requiring your services, unless said by
       myself or Mister Petrovic, assume any offer of work for us is a
       trap” The Russian man explained.
       …”Alright thank you” Mr Flanagan said and then reached into the
       brown paper bag and handed the Russian a fraction of the money
       inside of it.
       …”Thank you sir” The Russian said and then left the car and
       walked away, he headed through the park in case he was being
       followed.
       …”Home James and don’t spare the horses” Mr Flanagan said to
       which Perry and Max laughed. James didn’t know what to say so he
       laughed to and then put the car in gear and drove away.
       James drove down Earp Street and turned right at the
       intersection at the bottom of the hill and drove up Munsee
       Street and stopped at the traffic lights on the intersection of
       Munsee street and Dillion Street. As they sat in the idling
       Intruder listening to Liberty Rock Radio ad Iggy ranting about
       something, a Blue Schafter coming screaming up beside them and
       then slowed down as they passed the Intruder and bullets come
       screaming through the Intruder.
       Bullets shattered the windows and riddled the windscreen, the
       doors were full of bullets and head rests on the seats were
       taken off by the bullets. The Schafter sped away, but James
       wasn’t letting them go without a fight. James bailed out of the
       car and fired his Colt 45 as quick as he could and then reloaded
       and kept shooting as the Schafter raced away, with the trunk
       riddled with bullets and the back window shattered.
       …”You alright Mister Flanagan?” Perry asked.
       …”I’m fine, James get in the car!” Mr Flanagan ordered.
       …”James rushed back to the car and violently jammed it into gear
       and raced away just as the lights were turning yellow. People
       watched from their other cars as nobody else’s car was even hit
       and nobody decided to call the police, because so many people
       saw it happen they figured somebody else would.
       -------------------------------
       James got paid and then paid
       off some of his debt and did
       some grocery shopping

       9th March 2013
       James walked into the warehouse by himself carrying his gym bag
       and headed to the changing rooms that were now set up at the
       back of the warehouse behind old wooden bleachers that had been
       set up so people could get up higher to see the fight without
       crowding the scaffolding that was behind that.
       James got into his fighting jeans and left his shirt and boots
       off, he put on his gloves and the old cowboy hat with the clover
       painted on it and started stretching as his fight was coming up,
       on his way in the fight before his was just starting. He was in
       the main event tonight and he was going against Maniac.
       James walked out to the ring and vaulted over the fence around
       the ring and stretched his shoulders one more time as Maniac
       walked into the ring and looked at James and nodded as Jackson
       and the referee came in to the ring and stood between Maniac and
       James.
       ..."Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages,
       I am proud to bring you the first fight of the evening, it will
       be contested between two fighters, with standard rules applying.
       Introducing First... Weighing in at 231 Pounds and standing at
       6ft 3 inches tall, he hails from Steinway… The Celtic Cowboy…
       and his opponent… Weighing in at 248 Pounds and standing at 6ft
       4 Inches, he hails from Right here in East Hook! He is unbeaten
       in 29 Fights… MANIAC!” Jackson announced.
       James and Maniac grappled with each other and Maniac being
       stronger threw James to the ground and immediately went after
       him, but James rolled across the mat and jumped to his feet and
       then rushed at Maniac, but Maniac grabbed him by his waist and
       put James over his shoulder and then threw him on the ground and
       backed away.
       James got up an clenched his fists and worked his way to Maniac
       who did the same, James swung with his right but purposely
       missed and then swung with his left and Maniac blocked it, James
       then swung his right again and hit Maniac in the cheek. Maniac
       went with the momentum and turned to his right but continued
       turning and spun right around creating a sweeping motion with
       his right arm and hit James across the face and then did the
       same with his left arm.
       James stumbled away but didn’t let that stop him and went right
       back to Maniac, but as he turned to go back to Maniac, he was
       picked up and slammed on the ground and then Maniac tried to put
       him in a submission hold. James knew this and put distance
       between himself and Maniac and got to his feet.
       Maniac rushed James once again and drove him backwards and tried
       to pick him up for a slam again, but James fought out of it, but
       a swift uppercut to the rib cage and then Maniac led with the
       sole of his foot as he kicked James in the head and James fell
       face first onto the metal fence and opened the wound on his
       forehead once again, causing blood to stream once again from his
       hairline.
       James got blood in his eyes as Maniac pulled him away and tried
       to put him in a rear naked choke hold, but James knew enough to
       start elbowing backwards, hitting Maniac hard enough in the
       stomach to get away and try to regroup. James was blinking
       quickly and the blood streamed down his face and managed to get
       a couple of solid right and left hooks into Maniac as the
       persistent fighter continued attacking James. He managed to knee
       James twice in the chest and once in the shoulder.
       James managed to Maniac over himself and Maniac ended up on the
       mat in a sitting position where James went for a Half Nelson
       submission hold, but he didn’t know how to put it on properly
       and Maniac simply pulled James over himself and James landed on
       the top of his head in between Maniac’s knees.
       Maniac got onto his knees and tried to put James in the Half
       Nelson, but James gave an uppercut and hit Maniac in the chin
       and knocked him back and James rushed to his feet and got away
       from Maniac, but the distance between them was Short Lived as
       Maniac was on the attack again.
       James out of desperation kicked Maniac in the stomach and then
       began delivering a barrage of punches and strikes, causing a cut
       on Maniacs cheek to appear onto of a large swelling lump. Maniac
       caught one of James’s strikes and dragged James close to him and
       decked James and then jumped on top of him and got up and rubbed
       the cut on his cheek as the ref started counting.
       James refused to stay down and got up on the 8, Maniac grabbed
       hold of James and used his soupier strength to pick the warn out
       James up and slam him hard on the ground with Maniac landing on
       top of him again.
       Maniac stood up and watched as James got up again and this time
       Maniac started punching and kicking James. But James jumped and
       down something he’d seen on TV and kicked Maniac in the face
       with his heel. James landed on his hands and knees, turned
       around and tackled Maniac and began pummelling him. But Maniac
       was able to land a good shot in the side of James head which put
       him on the mat.
       Both Maniac and James got to their feet and stared at each
       other, Maniac had a swollen cheek and cut on it, James had a
       face covered in blood, a black eye, a split lip and several
       bruises forming on his torso. James rushed Maniac, but Maniac
       used James’s momentum to slam him onto the mat and go for a
       submission. But James just out of luck while trying to fight out
       of it, managed to lock his own in.
       But Maniac let go of his and James had to let his go as well,
       otherwise he was open to attack. Maniac rushed James again put
       him in a submission that targeted James’s shoulder, which was
       injured by Lord Mike the previous week. James started swinging
       wildly and landed a few shots on Maniac and managed once again
       to separate himself Maniac.
       Maniac grabbed hold of James and started working the shoulder
       once again, with his knee and James remembered what he did last
       week and using all his remaining strength to hoist Maniac up and
       started running for the slam, Maniac adjusted his grip and
       braced for impact and James jumped and slammed Maniac on the
       ground.
       But Maniac had himself in a perfect spot to reverse it and
       rolled through and had James locked in a variant of the
       Americana before James knew what was happening. James’s injured
       shoulder was in extreme and pain and that with the bruises on
       his body and the blood pouring down his face, he tried to fight
       for five seconds before tapping the mat and Maniac let go of the
       hold and James immediately grabbed his shoulder and held it with
       his left hand as the portion of the pain in his arm remained.
       …”Your winner, by Submission… Maniac” Jackson announced.
       James used his left arm to get to his feet and looked at Maniac
       who was about to leave the ring.
       …”Hey!” James said, with blood being blown off his lips as he
       said it.
       Maniac turned around and looked as James extending his left
       hand, Maniac walked back over and shook his hand which was met
       with a round of applause by most of the 871 people in
       attendance.
       James was given a $100 for his effort and had his wound stitched
       up once again and had an icepack tapped his shoulder and was
       told to ice the other bruises and got to the hospital if the
       pain continued in his shoulder for over a day.

       10th March 2013
       James stood in the corner of his Loft with a dumbbell in each
       hand and Hard Rock playing on his stereo, he had been exercising
       and working out since 8:30 that morning when he woke up and it
       was now lunch time. His body was in great amounts of pain, but
       he was upset with himself for losing and was determined to not
       lose again, ever again, he wasn't putting his body through that
       much torment and pain for a hundred dollars every week.
       There was a buzz at the speaker, he gently put the dumbbells
       down and walked over to the buzzer and held the button in.
       ..."Yeah?" He asked harshly.
       ..."It's Perry and Allan, can we come in?" Perry asked.
       ..."Yeah" James said and hit another button that let the lock go
       and Perry opened the door and walked in with Allan in tow.
       They walked up the stairs and came into the loft and immediately
       noticed James in nothing but shorts, covered in sweat lifting
       weights in the corner.
       ..."That must've set you back some?" Allan asked looking at the
       electric lock.
       ..."Yeah, it will once i get the bill for it, what I was going
       to win last night was suppose to pay for it" James said in
       between grunts as he continued lifting weights.
       ..."Yeah we heard, tough break" Perry said as he looked at a
       boxing magazine that was sitting on the table.
       ..."It won't happen again" James said as he continued.
       ..."Look stop it" Perry said and went grabbed the dumbbells off
       James and put them down.
       ..."Get dressed, we got a job that'll help get the anger out!"
       Perry said.
       ..."Watch some TV, I'm going to have a shower" James said and
       then headed to the bathroom to have a shower.
       Perry and Allan sat down and watched a Sports Recap show that
       aired every Sunday at 1:00 pm, while James showered and then got
       dressed in his usual shirt, jeans and a pair of Skateboarding
       shoes as was getting sick of living in boots.
       ..."Right, what are we doing" James asked as he wrapped a
       Bandana around his head to hold his long hair back and covering
       the gash on his forehead.
       ..."This stupid fuck is running in one of the Project
       Buildings... We gotta go and rough up one of his dealers and
       find out where exactly, Byron and few of the boys will take it
       from there" Perry said.
       ..."Is that all?" James asked.
       ..."No, cause then a cop buddy of ours is having trouble with
       some wimp beating his wife, he can't do anything about it, so
       he's hired us to do it, but we gotta find the dealer first"
       Perry explained.
       ..."Sounds like a good, fun filled day" James said with a slight
       grin.
       James put on a pair of Aviator Sunglasses to cover the bruising
       around his eyes and the trio left the Housing Unit and got into
       the Chavos Perry was driving. Perry drove the car and James and
       Allan out to the East Island City tunnel. The Trio left the
       Chavos parked on the side of the road and walked up through the
       park and Allan pointed out the dealer, an African American man
       in an orange Hooded Jacket.
       ..."Can I help you Gentle.meeen?" He asked the Trio walked up to
       him.
       ..."Aww shit!" He said as he realized who they were.
       He started running, but Allan pulled a Suppressed Pistol out of
       his belt and shot the dealer in the back of the leg: causing the
       dealer to crash to the ground in pain as he clutched at his leg.
       James grabbed him by the front of his shirt as his jacket was
       zipped up and hit him across the face.
       ..."Jesus Christ!" The dealer said and then spat a clump of
       blood out of his mouth.
       James then backhanded him and punched him again and then Perry
       pulled him away and crouched down next to the dealer as Allan
       pointed the suppressed pistol at him. The Dealer looked in panic
       at the gun and then at James cracking his knuckles in case he
       had to work him over again.
       ..."Listen you stupid fuck, this is Flanagan turf, all you
       dealers will learn one way or the other, you pay Mr Flanagan for
       the privileged to deal in Steinway and East Island City" Perry
       explained calmly but threateningly as well,
       ..."Son. I don't know nothing bout that, I was just here to
       deal, I'm sure my supplier is paying" The Dealer said
       respectfully trying to avoid a bullet to the head.
       ..."Well, that's the thing, you are going to tell us where he is
       and we're going to walk away from you. But you're going to
       spread the word, Mr Flanagan isn't a push over anymore, he runs
       West Dukes and if you gotta problem with that, you can take it
       up with me" Perry explained.
       Allan then institutionally put the gun right against the dealers
       head.
       ..."Nobody heard anything when I put a bullet through your leg
       and was standing next to a group of people, there's nobody
       around us now, what makes you think I won't put a bullet in your
       head right now" Allan threatened.
       ..."Alright, alright, chill out dogs. Building 7, Room 67, I'll
       tell everyone, I promise" He said and then put his hand over his
       heart.
       ..."Good, thank you for your cooperation, If you continue
       dealing, 10% gets dropped at Flanagan Auto Parts and Restoration
       every Thursday." Perry explained and then the trio left the
       dealer lying in the grass with blood oozing from the entry and
       exit wounds in his ankle.
       They got back into the Chavos and Perry called Byron and told
       him where the apartment was and they waited and stayed in the
       car and watched the dealer as he sat in the grass and watched
       them back. After 10 minutes Byron called Perry back and told him
       they busted up the Drug lab and they were free to keep going.
       ..."So, Mr Flanagan's taking control. Turning the crew into a
       gang?" James asked.
       ..."Yep, over the next week some people are going to be in for a
       hell of a shock" Perry said.
       There was a break in the traffic and Perry pulled the Chavos
       away from the curb and drove over to Cerveza Heights and aprked
       outside one of the many brownstones just south of the Police
       Station and they waited.
       ..."He's tall, grayish black short hair and a beard, and should
       be coming out of this one right here" Perry explained to Allan
       and James.
       They waited for a while before a man fitting that description
       came out of the house and began walking down the street. The
       Trio bailed out of the car and James got in front of him first
       and confronted him.
       ..."You think, beating your wife makes a big man!" James yelled
       at him.
       ..."What I do, to MY Wife. Is my business and not some thugs!"
       He yelled.
       ..."Good, I was hoping you were the right person!" James said
       and hit him on the chin and he stumbled back, then Allan caught
       him with a right hook and he crashes to the footpath.
       James hit him once with each hand and then Perry came through
       and kicked him in the stomach and then Allan pulled Perry out of
       the way and laid into the man, before Perry moved Allan out of
       the way so James could hit the man with a trash can lid. Bending
       it over the side of his head. Perry then brought the man to his
       feet and hit him several times in the face and then James hit
       him across the head with the lid again and he crashed to the
       ground.
       He scurried to try and get away but was kicked against the wall
       then James and Allan starting laying into him again. Perry
       grabbed a trash can and then tipped it on the man and then
       smacked the trash can on the man, causing it dent.
       James gave a couple of solid uppercuts and then Allan stomped on
       the mans leg and they stepped back as Perry through the trash
       can at the man and left him lying on the concrete, bloodied,
       bruised and covered in trash.
       ..."You ever, hit your wife or any other woman or kid again and
       we'll fucking kill you!" Perry yelled at the man.
       The Trio drove away as the man laid on the street groaning in
       pain and trying to get up, but couldn't. People looked on in
       astonishment at what they had just witnessed. He coughed and
       called for someone to help, but the words Perry yelled at as
       they were leaving stuck with them and left him to bleed right
       there on the footpath.
       ..."Feel better now?" Allan asked.
       ..."I'm happier, but I'm really fucking sore" James said.
       ..."Go and see this chick, she gives massages to sportsmen and
       people like that, take the working out easy and just relax"
       Allan said as he wrote out a phone number and address on James's
       hand.
       Perry dropped James off at his home and drove away as James went
       back inside and sat down to watch an MMA DVD to try and learn
       something.

       Thanks heaps for the comments lads, appreciate it.
       11th March 2013
       It was midday, the sun was shining down on the Dukes streets as
       the city bustled with activity. James walked up the footpath on
       Dukes Boulevard, he had just gotten a massage and it wasn't what
       he though it would be. It was painful, but that was because it
       was for an injury not for pleasure.
       James answered his phone and danced around a woman pushing a
       stroller, as he didn't notice them at first. James talked with
       Mr Flanagan for a few minutes and then changed instead of going
       home he walked to Mr Flanagan's house for a quick meeting.
       James was still wearing his bandanna and sunglasses to cover the
       swelling, bruising, and cuts on his upper face, he was happy,
       there was only a little bit of bruising and cut on the lower
       half of his face and his beard mostly cover that.
       James was let into Mr Flanagan's house by Mr Flanagan who was in
       the middle of cooking himself lunch. James walked into the
       living room and looked around, it was a very clean house, but it
       wasn't heavily decorated, Although above the fireplace was a
       picture of Mr Flanagan and what James assumed was his family: Mr
       Flanagan, a woman, and 3 kids who looked between the ages of 7
       and 13.
       ..."Sit down James" Mr Flanagan said as he walked into the
       living room carrying a plate with two toasted sandwiches and cup
       of coffee on it.
       ..."Okay" James said and sat down on a large leather reclining
       chair, but didn't lounge it in, instead he sat straight up and
       Mr Flanagan sat on the similar couch next to a coffee table,
       where he placed his lunch and began to eat.
       ..."Let me ask you something" Mr Flanagan said in between a bite
       of his sandwich and a mouthful of his coffee.
       ..."Sure" James said in a funny voice and then couched and
       cleared his throat..."Sure" He said again in his proper voice.
       ..."You ever visit your grandparents?" Flanagan asked.
       ..."No, I keep going to, but I never do" James admitted.
       ..."Well you should, Richard and Margret are lovely people" Mr
       Flanagan stated before taking another bite out of his sandwich.
       ..."You know them?" James asked surprised.
       ..."Yeah, I do... Your grandfather, Richard, actually brought me
       into the Irish Mafia back in the 80's" Mr Flanagan explained.
       ..."Wait, granddad was in the Irish Mob?" James asked. he was
       very surprised by what Mr Flanagan had just told him.
       ..."Yeah, he was a soldier, he was one of the few to make it
       alive and not in prison" Mr Flanagan explained.
       James remained silent, completely taken aback by this news, but
       as he though about things, it explained a few things about his
       childhood and why he was so accepting of his biker father. After
       thinking for a few minutes about everything James finally
       figured out what he was going to say.
       ..."So is that why you hired me?" James asked.
       ..."No, I always get guys like you, fighters, ex cons, but most
       people, come to me looking to join. That's where you are
       different" Mr Flanagan explained.
       ..."Because you offered me a spot without me asking?" James
       asked slightly confused on what Mr Flanagan was trying to say.
       ..."Exactly, now cops or informants never take that big of an
       indirect approach, it's to risky and unpredictable... That plus
       you revenge for Oliver and family history, proves to me, you
       ain't a cop, nor are you an informant" Mr Flanagan explained to
       James.
       ..."What are you talking about?" James asked, now completely
       confused.
       ..."By now, I guess you've heard, I'm getting out of the
       protection game and turning this crew into a gang" Mr Flanagan
       said.
       ..."Yeah, Perry was saying yesterday" James said.
       ..."Good, I don't need to explain further. Anyway, I want
       somebody around me at all time, because I get the feeling I'm
       going to upset a few people, so I want drivers, you're going to
       be one of them" Mr Flanagan explained.
       ..."I am?" James asked.
       ..."Yeah, you Randy and Jack will be my drivers, when you aint
       driving for me, you do whatever the hell you want" Mr Flanagan
       explained.
       ..."Sounds good" James said after a moment of thought.
       ..."Good." Mr Flanagan said.
       They sat there in silence for a moment before James spoke up.
       ..."Am I right to go, or did you want something else?" James
       asked.
       ..."Yeah, I'll call you, want I need you. Just do me a couple of
       favors this afternoon" Mr Flanagan said.
       ..."What?" James asked.
       ..."Call Ryan and tell him to come here and go and see your
       grandparents" Mr Flanagan said.
       ..."Sure thing, Mister Flanagan" James said.
       James walked out of the house and called Ryan as he walked along
       the North side of Steinway heading home. When he hung up he
       began thinking about getting some sort of normal life back, he
       always wanted a dog and he was thinking about getting a car, he
       wanted a truck though. He pondered on his life and started
       imaging scenarios where he could make a lot more money from the
       fights and maybe even fight less, allowing himself to heal up
       between fights.
       As James walked under the tracks nearing his home a grey Admiral
       sedan pulled up just ahead of James and two men in suits got out
       the car and walked towards James and he knew there was going to
       be trouble.
       ..."Mister James. Sean. Doyle?" One of the men in suits asked.
       ..."Who's asking" James said defensively.
       ..."Detective Keller"
       ..."And Detective Baldwin of the LCPD"
       ..."Well, Mister Keller and Mister Baldwin, if you got something
       to say to me, say it" James said.
       ..."Alright, do you mind sitting in the car with us?" Keller
       asked.
       ..."Yes, but I'm guessing I'm not any position to argue" James
       said.
       ..."This ones smart" Keller said to Baldwin.
       They walked to the Admiral and got in, James and Keller in the
       backseat with Baldwin sat in the drivers seat.
       ..."Listen punk, we're not being official anymore, your boss is
       treading on toes and we're feeling the effects, you convince him
       to give up wanting be a 'Gangsta' and go back to doing
       protection jobs and nothing bad will happen. Got that" Keller
       threatened.
       James thought quickly and just started laughing.
       ..."What!" Baldwin asked angrily.
       ..."I have no idea what you two are talking about. I'm a
       mechanic and amateur fighter. Gangsters, protection jobs. You
       two are crazy" James said as convincingly as possible.
       Keller and Baldwin looked at each other and figured James was
       bullshitting.
       ..."Listen, Mister Flanagan is a hired gun, you and your buddies
       are hired guns. None of you are drug runners, gun traffickers or
       extortionists, and never will be got that, you get Flanagan to
       back down and call a truce with Bianchi and Assad and there
       won't be a problem" Baldwin threatened.
       ..."Look I don't know what, either of you are talking about, but
       I think you've got me and my co-workers and employer mixed up
       with some other people. I'm sorry for wasting your time" James
       said. Keller immediately became enraged, drew his pistol and
       held it to James's chin.
       ..."Bullshit, all you want, you know what we're asking, do it,
       or else" Keller threatened.
       ..."Alright, alright whatever you say" James said.
       ..."Good know get out" Keller said then pushed James back
       towards the door. James opened the door and got out and slammed
       in the door in frustration and watched as the detectives drove
       away. James turned around and started walking back to Mr
       Flanagan's house.

       I'm getting to like all the characters in this story, I like
       learning about their lives. This story has been fantastic since
       the first chapter, this has got to be one of my all time
       favorites!!! 8)

       Sorry WB, but I'm not feeling this story anymore. I had a
       perfect plot set out that lasted for until about September in
       the story and that's where it would finish with an open end. I
       meant to have the chapters done around the time GTA 5 came out.
       But then I watched a few movies and TV shows and got some new
       ideas and seen things similar to my ideas in other things and
       decided to change it up. But Now I regret that.
       I'll give it to a few weeks after GTA 5 comes out. But I'll
       probably rewrite it in GTA 5 settings, with the things I wish
       I'd done in this story and a set plot instead of changing
       details willy nilly.
       Anyway, so that's how it goes. If anybody wants to know how this
       ends, just ask.
