After a few drinks and a long day the sun set in a blaze.

"Do something unexpected. You want people to gain attention you do something completely unreal maybe even crazy, you change the conversation". Said Leo. He looked at Rafa who smiled and nodded.

"Aye that sounds good my friend, together we shall do just that". Said Rafa. He lit his pipe and blew it around the room. The gaze of Italy stood behind them as the maid came up with the meal. A nice pizza Italian style a hundred percent. Leo's mouth watered as he gazed at the deliciousness. The smell of incredible ingredients came to Leo as he looked out at the beautiful colors and the houses around.

The crisp sunset started shining over the red roofs of Great Italia and a sense filled Leo of comfort as he realized people were leaving for home for the day proud and joyous over the day's work.

He looked at the Arabic man who sat down like a king. He was a drug kingpin in Italy and much of the countries nearby. Leo wanted him in America.

He lit a smoke and came over to the table. Rafa closed the white doors.

How do you like the food my friend"? Rafa looked across at Leo smiling. The big wooden table was empty except them. The room was quiet.

"The foods great Rafa". He was taking another bite of the lamb and smiled. "So what special name do they have to this dish", He looked at the yogurt bites in a bit of disbelief that it tasted so damn good.

Back home it's called Mansaf. It is very delicious in my country. Do you like the caprese salad with pesto. I realize two very different flavors indeed"

"Everything is delicious". Said Leo. He put up his glass as a black haired woman with brownish grey eyes bowed and brought some wine. She had a bluish grey top and a blue veil around her. She smiled as she poured Wine into Leo's glass.

Thank you my dear. Said Leo. Rafa nodded at her.

she blushed." If there is anything else, you just ask Mr. Leo".

So Rafa what do you think about my proposal"?

I think I shall indeed join you in this, Wisconsin? I very much am interested in seeing my smoke business rise to newer heights, this venture seems noteworthy".

"You won't regret it I promise you".

August 2 2008:

Nick a red haired man stood next to a red suburu.

"Ugh I hate this car", said Leo, he walked to the side of the car and Nick opened the door.

Yeah I hate this to but hopefully it's worth it right boss", said Nick. He opened the door. Leo sighed. He pulled his collar down and took the tie off.

Just need him to teach me about some things, he's more clever when it comes to shopping for materials and he can see through some important deals I can't especially with tobacco and what they do out here, he runs this side of Italy the whole countryside practically, I got a good feeling about this",

"Why not just go back to Rafael and ask for some help, he didn't mean what he said kid",

"Nick it's too late for Rafael, some trips he's made have led to way to many casualties and he has a flare for being a drama Queen",

"Rafa seems to act and think he's a king", said Nick. You can't keep someone like that under control in Wisconsin. He's gonna be a loose cannon",

"I'm gonna have a good eye, I have dealt with his type before", they got in the suburu and took off.

The lights shimmered as Rafah pulled up to the helicopter. Leo got out and opened the door.

Rafa stepped up and got inside. Leo followed suit closing the door. Nick got in front and took off.
