It was a dark and rainy, the night Frank Gordon, was killed. He was a 50 year old American who had recently moved to Makati on business. Divorced from his wife a few years ago, he's a relatively rich man. He had many friends and few enemies, if any at all. He looks like a victim of mere circumstance.
He was killed by a car, the force of the impact sending him over the car. His head hits the pavement, cracking his skull. His phone miraculously still in his hand, he quickly dials 168 as the blood seeps out of the crack in his skull. The emergency operator manages to take his call, asking calmly where he is.
His vision fading and his body weakening, he's barely able to answer, "It's no coincidence." His arm slack, he drops the phone. The pool of his blood starting to get bigger, he finally slips into darkness. His pain forgotten, he finally dies, in a filthy street as the rain continue to pours down.
