All or over

Chapter 1 -Disappointment

The clouds were crying on this awful night. It was April 1st and it was Anthony's birthday. "Happy birthday Anthony '' laughed a voice he recognised as his father Harold walked into Anthony's bedroom. It was filled with posters of his old favourite movies like the breakfast club and grease. Under the posters was a small sized bed that Anthony was sitting on. He looked at his father and got up. His father gave him a little piece of paper. "What's this?" Anthony asked while looking up at his father. "Open it" Harold smiled but it wasn't a normal smile Anthony could tell he was hiding something. As Anthony opens it the note was a photo of this guy he had a black suit and slicked back hair. "Who's this?" Anthony kept staring at the photo to get a better idea but he didn't know why his father gave him this photo. "Well as you're 18 now you can take part in your first Mafia mission". "I've already told you dad, i don't wanna join this stupid mafia" Anthony rips the paper in front of his dad. "LISTEN TO ME YOU LITTLE SHIT!" Halold grabs Anthony's arms tightly so Anthony couldn't move. "IT'S IN YOUR FUCKING BLOOD, YOU LITTLE SHIT WILL GO TO THE HIGH ROLLAR AND KILL THE BARTENDER HUSKER ELLIOT". "Wait, wait the high roller as in the casino?". "DON'T ASK ME QUESTIONS CUNT JUST DO IT" Harold slaps Anthony on the cheek "Maybe then you won't be a disappointment!". Harold was about to leave but before he did he turns around "Oh and your name will be Angel Dust from now on, we don't need people do know your real name, don't fucking blow it". He leaves the room. "Anthony lays on his bed and sighs. There's a knock on the door "Hello Anthony, can I come in?" It was her sister Molly. "Sure whatever" Molly enters Anthony's room and sits next to him on the bed as she kicks her legs back and forth. Her legs stop moving as she frowns looking at Anthony's expression "What's wrong?" she asks in a careful manner. She was wearing a light blue plain top with her white hair tied into a tight ponytail that was surrounded by a blue scrunchie to match the dress. "Dad just asked me to kill this bartender but I don't even know the guy, what if he's nice?" Anthony hugs his sister. "But i really don't wanna disappoint dad" you're lucky your my younger sister, you don't have to do any of this shit" Anthony let's go off the hug as Molly laughs. "Hey no matter what happens during this mission, just remember whatever you do don't die please, i love more then anything brother..., I need you Anthony..." both siblings eyes water as Angel forces a smile to Molly "Don't worry Molly, you're in safe hands, i promise you i'll always be here" Molly looks up at Anthony "That's a big promise to keep" she sniffs as she feels Anthony's cold hand on her cheek. He wipes away all the burning tears off her sweet. Innocent face.
"And i'll do anything to keep you happy and safe Molly"
Anthony lets go of his hand from Molly's face and stands up.
"Wait brother before you go i got something for you"
Molly smiles as she passes Anthony a tiny little box wrapped in red and black wrapping paper.
"Happy birthday from me Anthony"
Molly's smile was bigger than before as she pulled Anthony into the biggest hug ever while Anthony hugs in return for the goodness of Molly's big heart. After a while the two siblings hug. Anthony smiles and stares at the little box for a second as he opens it. Inside was a little bracelet that had the name Anthony in gold letters.
"Wait, wait Molly, how did you get this? These are super expensive and you don't even have a job and dad would not let you have that kind of money".
Anthony starts to shake in shock as tears fall down his face. His never been given anything this meaningful since his mother died.
"Well I have my ways, happy birthday".
Molly laughs as she smirks at Anthony not wanting to spill the secret to how she got it. All that matters to her is that her brother is happy. Both of the unstoppable siblings giggle for a moment as a smash is heard which makes Anthony and Molly jump.
"Molly you stay here, i'll check it out".
As Anthony is about to walk away Molly takes his hand looking terrified.
"Don't go-".
Molly looks up at Anthony not wanting to let go as Anthony slowly and gently removes her hand from him.
"Listen to me Molly".
Anthony crouches down to match the size of Molly who was a lot shorter then he was.
"It's going to be ok, i'm going to check what is going on then i'll come back to you ok, go and go to your room".
Molly runs off to her room as step by step Anthony heads down the never ending stairs while Anthony can hear beer glass being thrown. In the room was a guy kidnapped to a chair and rope. The room was dark with a grandfather clock that you can hear ticking down. The time was 11:30pm, it felt as if the time went super quickly. Anthony's birthday was almost over. Over the earring sounds of the clock Harold was chucking to the kidnapped person.
"Haha you know, i could kill you right now".
Harold was pacing around the room with big footsteps that were like big feet. The kidnapped guy was struggling to breath, his mouth being covered in a white ribbon and his hands and legs being tied by a rope.
"I'm not going to because you are going to do exactly as I say".
He grins with a smile on his face as Anthony backs away and heads back upstairs before being spotted and walks into Molly's room. Molly was in her bed peacefully reading a book called Little woman. She notices her brother enters the rooms and she puts her book down to see her brother.
"So what was the sound?".
Molly looks at Anthony with a worried expression that was written all over her face. Her bottom lip was pouting with her big eyes. Even Molly knew something wasn't right.
"It was dad again, he was throwing beer glasses and I discovered that-".
Anthony froze in fear, he was scared to finish that sentence meaning that he'll admit to his sister that his crazy ass dad had kidnapped someone.
"You stop talking for a second, what did you discover?".
Molly raised her eyebrows in confusion at what her brother was trying to tell her. Whatever it was Molly knew it wasn't good if Anthony wasn't going to tell her.
"Well, i-".
Anthony takes a deep breath trying to calm himself down to not scare Molly.
"Dad kidnapped someone and his downstairs, we need to be very quiet".
He whispered.
"Is this a part of his work?"
She asks while looking horrified at Anthony wanting him to answer the question.
"Well you could say that our dad is a literal killer haha our lives are so fucked up".
Anthony chuckles uncontrollably as Molly looks at him worried.
"Heh yeah i guess our lives are super fucked up".
Molly giggles in agreement then has a serious expression on her face.
"Whatever you do Anthony, please stay safe, dad has now involved you in his crazy, sick company, i- just don't want you to end like him".
Angel gasps in shock, why would his sister say such a thing?. The thought threw him as he looked back at Molly who seemed dead serious.
"I won't, it's ok Molly".
Molly smiles from the reassurance as she yawns while rubbing her eyes.
"Oh right, it's getting a bit late for you Molly, goodnight sister".
He smiles as he turns off the lights and leaves her room.
"Bye".
Molly whispers in her sleep as she falls asleep. Molly turns over and over struggling to fall asleep from her dad talking downstairs. Anthony walks through the dark hallway as he heads back into his room and sighs. He checks the pockets of his leather jacket and finds the file his dad gave him earlier of Husker. Anthony sits on his bed and looks through the file of Husker. His mind was having flashbacks to everything is father told him,
"DON'T ASK ME QUESTIONS CUNT JUST DO IT" Harold slaps Anthony on the cheek "Maybe then you won't be a disappointment!".
He couldn't back up now Anthony had to do this for his dad to prove he's a man and so his dad can approve of him. The one thing in Anthony's life that he ever wanted was his approval. Then he remembered his sister as he also had flashbacks to her.
"Hey no matter what happens during this mission, just remember whatever you do don't die please, I love you more than anything brother..., I need you Anthony...".
Anthony snaps back to reality as he stares at the file and looks through it. The file had a lot of information about him but it also mentioned where he works the high roller. The high roller was the biggest casino in the town in LA. Full of the best gamblers around.
Meanwhile Harold smoked in front of the kidnapped guy who was struggling to speak and the only sound he could make was muffles and crying.
"Though you seem useless, so why do I need you?".
Harold laughs at the satisfaction as the kidnapper muffles loudly terrified at what Harlod might do to him. Harold walks around the room slowly with his hands in his pockets as he slowly reveals a tiny black gun that he pointed at the kidnapped . Suddenly a click of the gun is heard as it triggers. The bullet killed him. He was dead lying on the floor as Harold knelt down and took all his money. Anthony heard the tragic sounds of the gun being fired knowing the kidnapped guy was killed for money. Anthony looked at Husk's file while tears were pouring like rain down his long face. Inside the file was a little white plane ticket booked for LA with row A, seat 7. He realised that his dad planned this for a while and got him a plane ticket to LA for today at 5am. There was no point for Anthony to sleep, he had a mission to solve. Anthony did some research on the high roller. He knew where it was and knew how the layout worked before he even admits to killing Husker Elliot Anthony he wants to know what he is like as a person. Anthony's plan was simple: get to know him as a person and then from there figure out how and when is the right time to kill him. Everything Anthony was planning he kept in his notebook that was red and blue. After a while of planning and packing everything he needs. His father walks into the room with a smirk on his face which makes Anthony gulp.
"Anthony i see you found your plane ticket i got you, wow LA you're going to have the world on your shoulders son, don't fucking disappoint son me".
Anthony walks closer to his father.
"Did you kill another man today with a gun!?".
Harold covers Anthony's mouth.
"Shhhh don't say it out loud idiot but yes i did, why is that a shock? You know i do it for the money right, it's the reason why i'm able to provide you with food and shelter".
Anthony sighs.
"I know it's your job but-".
Before Anthony can finish his sentence his dad interrupts him.
"Exactly see and as your 18 like i said earlier you will have to do the same one day".
