The "VA Mafia"

Chapter 5

"Ah...there you are beautiful..." Paul said as he pulled out his double barrel shotgun, a knife, a pistol, and a Tommy gun. He grabed a pack of cigarets and drove off in his car. After a few minutes he came to a Coner and waited outside, leaning against a dim light post. "They should walk by here any minute..." He waited until two figure started to walk past. "Excuse me gents, either of you got a match on ya?" He said. "Oh, sure thing pal." One of the men said as he handed over a book of matches. Paul took out one and lit his cigaret. "Thanks fellas. Say, did you hear the news?" "No sir, what might this news be?" "A friend of mine is look for some guys who walked out on her." Paul said while leaning against his car. "And how would we have heard about your friend?" "Well maybe you know her, her name is......Maili." Just as Paul said this the two men when so pale, they looked white against the black of night. Paul wasted no time is pulling out his pistol and shooting the two men in their heads. "Oh, and thanks again for the light fellas." He said with a smile as he drove off. The next place he hit was down by the docks, a man was fishing there with the only light being that of the moon on the water. "Hey there pal, awfully late to be fishing." Paul said, sitting down next to the man. "Well a little, but I do love the peace of night." The man said as he reaped in his line a bit. "Hmm...looks like your line is a bit loose at one point, if you real it in I could maybe cut it for ya and fix it." Paul said, reaching for his knife. The man pulled back his line and looked it over. "Targets odd...I don't see any loose ends..." "I was talking about you buddy." Paul quickly slashed at the mans throat with his knife, and kicked him into the water. "Enjoy the rest of your night sir." He hoped his hat and went back to his car. He went off and cleaned up a few more people before calling it a night and driving to one more house, he knocked on the door. "Mmm....One second..." A lady opened the door, rubbing her eyes from just waking up. "Hey Bri." Paul said with a smile. "Paul? What are you doing out here in the north side of town?" "I was just cleaning up some things for the boss. When you do the report tomorrow, make sure that's understood." He said with nod and a wink. "Alright..." "Have a good night Bri." Paul gave a quick tip of the hat as he jumped back in his car and drove off. "Good night...its four in the morning..."

The next morning the press was ablaze with the many found dead around city. "Extra, Extra, Read all about it! Many men found dead all over the city, Mafia considered to be the blame!" Dan and Silvia past one of the paper boys on their way to work, Dan pulled over and leaned out the Window. "What was that?" "Here sir, the paper will explain all!" Dan payed the three cents for the paper and pulled it into the car, handing it to Silvia. "Thank you..." "Rose, Sir!" The newsy smiled and continued to call for more people to buy. "Dan...all these people killed...down by the docks, on the street, even in the middle of the city in some places..." "Funk...the chief is gonna have our heads." The rest of the drive was quiet till they got there. "I'm guessing you two already read the paper?" "Yes sir." The two said, standing at attention. "Well...we need to find them more than ever now. I want the two of you on non stop patrol today." "Yes sir." The said heading out to their car.

Back at Maili's office Bri was there giving a report on recent Business. "So we have been doing alright with selling alcohol, we have needed to dip into personal stock a bit to keep getting money to flow in. And Paul wanted me to tell you that this happened last night thanks to him." She tossed Maili the paper, making her grin. "Good...but we need to be carful now, the cops are gonna be on edge now." Bri nodded. "I'll be off for now Boss." "Enjoy the rest of your day Bri." Maili said as she started to read over the rest of the paper.
