Chapter 1: Rainy Days

In a dark, deserted alley two groups of people are facing-off. Wearing black suits, black hats and shoes, you may think that they are just there for a simple underground transaction. However, with their grim faces and tensed hands wielding their guns, it will be a bloody scene once triggered.

On the other side of the group, someone is standing on the left side of a car while reaching out to the door of the passenger's seat. With a "click" the man slowly opened the door with his gloved left hand and bent his body a little bit towards the opened door, showing his respect to the person inside the car. A leg came out from the open door, wearing a well-polished black wing tip shoes and black slacks, then followed by his body slowly emerging from the car.

When he was already out from the car, he stood to fix his dark blue suit but nobody could tell the difference because of the poor lighting of the alley. Slowly, he walked to the opposing side of his group. Each step was strong, grounded and unhurried. He knows that he will be safe being surrounded by his men but he walked three steps ahead from the line of defense. This only shows that he does not consider his opponent a threat.

"Come out" said the man calmly. That two words will make all women swoon because of his low and a little bit raspy voice which they described as "rough and sexy", but to the current recipient of his command, a chill ran out of her spine.

He knows that he successfully threatened his opponent so he fished for his cigarette, took one and put it in his lips. Then, a small yellow-orange fire lit beside him and lit his cigarette. He took a long drag and slowly puffed a good quantity of smoke.

Shocked faces were plastered on the opponent side, they did not see when did that person came. They saw him stood beside the car of that man and did not followed him. They all shivered for their doom after they realized that if the meager assistant is capable, how about his armed goons?

After a few minutes, a woman emerged from the black Bentley situated on the back side of the group. When he saw the woman, he smiled.

The skies rumbled and the lightning strikes, as if, the heavens are celebrating his success.
