Purple Roses - Purpled and Tommy

Chapter 1

TWs: Swearing. Woo! First part, here we goo!

Tommy does not want to be here. 

In fact, he would rather be (practically) ANYWHERE but here. He knows Tubs worked hard on this new invention, and sure, maybe Tommy did suggest Tubbo to enter this contest, but did he really have to drag Tommy along? This is practically illegal shit central! A casino! Who would even host a youth invention contest here? Like come on, a giant casino..?

A... giant casino he wasn't supposed to be in for 2 more years... Tommy just had the most show stopping, bigggest man idea ever. What if, now hear him out, he just MAYBE was to enter the restricted section, where bitches gambled their life savings away. I mean Tommy had to provide for his very many wives somehow, right? And bloody hell if he wasn't going to try and win a game of blackjack. The decision has been made. Plus, if he wasn't good at it (which might he mention is very unlikely, due to just how manly he is, and how he's amazing at everything) he could always ditch. 

Walking up to the gates that separates the machines and the other parts of the casino, Tommy ran into his first obstacle. Security. See the world just wanted to stop him from providing for his very poor sad family, so they make everything impossible. But his middle name wasn't danger for a reason. He would find away around any obstacles, and he was open to treason. Hey that rhymes.. Anyways! He was getting off track. How was he supposed to get past without a valid ID?

..Maybe he didn't have to? He watched as an old bitch waltzed right in without a second glance. And sure, in retrospect maybe Tommy could have rationalized he was a regular or something. But money is time and time was money, he had no idea when Tubbo would be finished showing off his gizmos and shit to everyone there. Before they had gone, Tommy reassured the bee boy he would win, but he dragged Tommy along for "moral support" anyways. Look where that got him. Oh well, Tommy was perfectly fine on his own. 

"Hello? ID please?" Shit. Tommy was too distracted to notice it was his turn in line. The person at the desk tapped their foot impatiently waiting for Tommy to pull out some form of identification. Tommy literally said of the first thing he could think of. " I left my ID in the casino area. Yup. Mhm" while the worker took a skeptical look at him, he creaked open the gate and shoved Tommy in, getting the line moving again. 

Holy shit. That actually worked?! He has to tell Tubbo about this later. And Purpled. And Ranboo too. Man was Tommy popular, he bet all the women fawn over him. Ack! He keeps getting off track. Problem dos, he has no money. This one was problematic for him. He could steal? No, albeit he probably broke a few laws already, Tommy Innit is no thief. Time to be logical...

...! 

He shoved his hand into his pocket, pulling out a crisp 5 pound note. He heard this place accepted all types of money, so he brought the note thinking he could buy some sort of food, but clearly he didn't have enough money for all of the fancy food here. Alright, now with his two main concerns cleared, it was time to have fun. He really started to take in everything, from the flashing lights, the loud sounds, and mass amount of people.

Honestly, Tommy was slightly overwhelmed. Not because of everything going on around him, no, but the sheer amount of places to start. Being truthful with himself, he could probably only play one game.. better make it count! He wandered around until he found a machine he was happy with. The machine was a very colorful one, but all of them were so that wasn't a very big deal. The seat was made of a plush material, but the machine itself seemed slightly more run down than the others. It fit him perfectly.

He sat down, and moved himself to where it was comfortable. Sure, the stool had no backing, but everything else was amazing! Don't get him wrong, he wasn't poor, (Not that he had anything against those that were, from his experience they seem pog) but everything about this casino was just luxury. He pulled out his note, looking for a place to insert it. Listen! He had never been to a casi-

"Hey! You seem a little young to be here." 

Fuck. The voice came from behind him, distorted by a voice changer. He slowly spun around in the chair, marveling in the precious seconds he had before he was sure everything would go to shit for him. The man, now in front of him was wearing a purple mask that covered his whole face, a purple hood that connected to a also purple suit jacket,  a dress shirt ,and finally a black tie to fulfill the mood of the outfit. It was weird, not seeing any distinct features of a person.

He had to assume this was the Ace of spades. The worker that led the invention group in here explained a bit about how the casino ran. There was regular staff yes, but managing each group or section was the Aces. They were people who kept their identities disclosed, for reason's nobody knew, or at least that's what the guide said. If his assumptions were correct, this big man ran the security.

That also meant this was the worst one he could have ran into. The ace's voice echoed again. " so.. do you have some form of identification you could show me?" That he did not. And by the way the ace was holding himself, it seemed like he knew it too. "..." he got himself into some deep shit, and now he was paying the price, man he wish these fleeting seconds were longer.

The man sighed. "Listen kid, I'll let you go, but just this once. If I see you again here, I'll have to report you okay?" .... Wait WHAT?! It couldn't be that easy! This was like the biggest casino he had ever seen, and here he was, sitting in front of the head of security and he was just letting him go? This made no sense! " Are, you just gonna sit there waiting for me to take you or?" Fuck, Tommy kept getting distracted! " Uh, thank you lots, see ya big man!" Tommy quickly yelped running across the section. He wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. 

He eventually found the rest of the little group Tubbo and Tommy had been in when Tubbo just came waltzing out. "Heya boss man! Had fun waiting out here?" Oh Tubbo, Tubbo, Tubbo. If only you knew. Wait a minute. He had been standing here for a bit, why hadn't he started explaining? 

" You will never guess what happened big man!"

Annnd here we are! The end of chapter 1, the beginning of the story! My hopes are that the chapters get longer, as right now this chapter is only 1228 words long! Like bro. It is (hopefully) the shortest chapter because I wanted to get the ball rolling :p hope you tune in for chapter 2!
