 Los Pollos Hermanos

Looking up with a sigh at the bright cheery logo with chicken brothers welcoming look Lucy slinged her bag over her shoulder entering the building. Three months she's been working for the popular chicken chain it was a decent income and co-workers were polite, especially Lyle he always looked out for her and was willing to take the blame for any mistakes she made in the kitchen. She had a guessed he has harboured a little crush on her during the time they worked together.

The scent of seasoned chicken never got old for her as she made her way to the kitchen that morning. Lyle stood preparing the fryers sending her a meek smile, hopefully no one will be the subject of Mr Fring's intimidating stare. She thought that will be the same as any other, but little did she know what was ahead for her.

Eduardo Salamanca known to friends and enemies as Lalo was back and for good. Hector thought he was the strongest minded and intimidating family member to take over business in his absence. Since his other nephew Tuco was incarnated for breaking a guard's jaw like the raging bull he was. Chihauhu Mexico was where Lalo came from. His home. It was a lot more different than Albuquerque, but Lalo knew what he was doing.

El michoacano the diner was his first stop where his family would conduct their dealings and break a few bones if there was a dollar short.

Taking a step inside he looked around whistling to himself, he meets the eye of local dealer Krazy 8 who immediately goes wide eyed and nervously looks at the table. Lalo smiles and approaches him.

"Hey there you must be here to see me, allow me to introduce myself I'm Lalo I will be the one in charge. So, you will come to me now since my tio Hector is away" Lalo smiles patting him on shoulder. Krazy flinches at the sudden contact and finds his words. "Nice to meet you Lalo I have the amount Hector ordered" He stuttered slightly.

"Good I will calculate it myself after I get to know the kitchen, would you like to have something to eat? I have a secret family recipe for you to try, it's to die for" Krazy looks at him and shakes his head "Well it's your loss, I'll be back in no time" Lalo chuckles making his way to the kitchen.

The hum of engine came to an end as Nacho took a breather stepping out of his precious red Javelin AMX heading to the diner loud music fills the atmosphere which was odd so he followed.

Krazy 8 sat at the table fidgeting while the man himself Lalo was singing and preparing a delicious meal. He has heard all sorts of stories about Lalo, Nacho watched on how he cooked while rumours roam his mind.

"Oh hey! You're right on time, you are going love this" Lalo smiles while sprinkling seasoning on the plate he seems to be different compared to his cousin Tuco.

"Vas a morir"(You will die) he says holding the plate to his nose. "No gracias" Nacho declines. "You are a Salamanca?" He asks shifting back

"Si I'm Eduardo, but you can call me Lalo" he sends a wink pointing his finger. "And you must be Varga, no? They told me you were smart and could show me around, yes?" It sounded like a question, but Nacho couldn't refuse any Salamanca.

It was past twelve in the Los Pollos Hermanos restaurant as Lucy went on her duties and started cleaning tables and sweeping the litter from under them it was a little tiring especially how much litter people can drop. All Lucy wanted is to go home and relax with her kitty Milo watching silver screen movies that was the perfect night for her.

Lalo stuttered through door while Nacho followed behind letting out a little laugh Lalo was surprised on how established the restaurant was. "I want to meet this chicken man myself lets order" Lalo said as he proceeded to cut the waiting line earning glares from disgruntled customers. But to shorten it down he didn't give a fuck.
