Until Now

⛓Yancy Chapter 1⛓

"My story like many others crosses path's with one of us here" he looks over at Dark seeing him realize with a glare. "Whoa tension" says Will as Yancy continues "My story was also set in the 1950's I was young, my Father and I both worked for the mob" he continues to look Dark in the eyes "We both worked for Dark..." he crosses his arms sitting back in his chair. "Since my Father was older he was Dark's right hand man.." Dark chimes in "I remember Victor.. he was loyal" Yancy nods "He was a very honest man.. though he was a violent one too.." he looks down fiddling with his hands. Clearing his throat he continues "When I was a tween my Father would constantly beat on me and my wonderful Mother daily... he was a very angry man deep down.. he had problems and he wouldn't admit it" he sighs starting his story.

"Victor please I-I'm sorry!" shouts his Mother- Athena getting smacked against the counter. Watching from the arch way unable to move out of fear a young Yancy stands watching. "Boy what are you looking at!?" shouts Victor walking over taking him by the arm into the other room to beat him "F-Father please no!" shouts Yancy through tears as he gets dragged into the other room. 

After a long beating for no reason, Yancy gets up leaving the house to get away from the situation heading to a hide out he created for himself-since he doesn't have any friends. Sitting in a old chair he found Yancy sobs into his hands because he couldn't cry during the beating.

"Yancy that's terrible.." says Chase "Yeah.. my Father wasn't too good to me.." he continues.

After returning home Yancy has his head down looking at his feet stay quiet as he walks past his Father passed out drunk on the couch. "Aye boy" he suddenly hear stopping in his tracks looking at his Father "Let's talk, come here" he says with a slur as young Yancy joins him on the couch tense. "I wasn't sure if I was ever going to tell you this but.. now seems like a good time.. I am the right hand goon to a very powerful man" Yancy looks at him confused. "He runs the mob in our town.. since you're 13 I think you could join as a thief boy until your rank builds up.. to be honest he need's more goons" he pats his shoulder taking a swig of beer. Yancy looks at the floor "Do I have too?" his Father nods "You're my son you must, besides if it were my choice I'd still make you do it" he chuckles taking another swig he smacks the back of his head as Yancy leaves into his room. 

Sitting on his bed Yancy ponders 'This.. could be what I need to feel appreciated.. maybe then my Father will actually love me' he smiles lying back down.

Dark stares at Yancy for a moment, they share a tense silence across the group both of them with their arms crossed, closed body language as Yancy continues.

..After a few more years Yancy is now 18 and working for the Mob just like his Father...

After snatching a women's purse Yancy sprints down the street, tucking into an ally way making his way back to the hide out. "Bring in the boy.." says a man from the back office staring out the window in a jet black suit. Filled with nerve young Yancy steps into the office, the door shutting behind him "I-I-" he jumps a bit as the man turns to him smoking a cigar. "Good Work young man" he chuckles taking the purse away from him and rummaging through it "Damn.. you have an eye for wealth" he says with a smile. "Thank you sir" Yancy smiles a bit "I-I've been meaning to ask you sir-if you don't mind, how old are you exactly?.." the man sits up straight "How old do you think I am?" he smirks. Yancy stands staring "Honestly.. I don't know" the man smirks "I'm 23" Yancy widens his eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Wait I'm confused, Dark you were 23?" Dark nods, as Yancy explains "This was before Dark had gotten really big with that plaidfield guy.." he looks at Dark making eye contact he looks away. "A-Anyway's.. with what comes next you guy's won't believe me.."
