12:30pm Monday.
It’s a swelteringly hot day in the city that I have chosen not to name as it is irrelevant, at least for the time being anyway. A black van is parked opposite an alley that lies between the cities largest supermarket and McDonalds. Inside the van is a secret agent known by the name of Stick, inside the van with him are three other agents with the names of Snake, Paranoid and Nugget. Also inside the van is a load of high tech spying equipment set up. Stick is sitting in the passengers’ side of the van looking through some binoculars that are aimed on a door down the alley. As the van has blackout windows nobody outside the van is any the wiser to what is going on inside it. “Is that him?” asks Paranoid to Nugget as he holds up a photo, “Yeah, that’s him” replies Nugget. The man in the photo is dressed in a black suit and is wearing a pair of sunglasses, he has long brown hair down to his shoulders and also has a tell tale tattoo of a dragon on the side of his neck. “He’s the one who set off that bomb in china town” said snake, “The FBI have been trying to track this character and his gang known as the Darkside shadows down for ages now”, “Yeah but they always seem to escape” said Nugget. Suddenly the alley door opened and out stepped the man in the photo followed by five other men all dressed in similar looking suits. As the men walked onto the front of the shops the man in the photo stopped and began to stare at the van window suspiciously. “They’re onto us” said Paranoid, “I think that we should make a run for it”, “No, stay right here” said Stick in a sharp manner. A black limousine pulled up at the opposite side of the road from the van and the men all got into it except the man who was still staring at the van, “Hey get into the car Sanchez” said a voice. The man did as instructed but never took his eyes off of the van. “Get the registration plate” said Snake, “Don’t bother” said Stick. “You and Nugget go and check things out down the alley and me and Paranoid will follow the limo”. Nugget and Snake got out of the van and went over to the alley, Paranoid did a u turn in the van and began to follow the limo. Only a couple seconds later a loud explosion could be heard. Paranoid looked into the rear view mirror to see the building that the people in the limo got out of, engulfed in flames. “Damn” shouted Paranoid, “We just lost two good agents their”. “I don’t think so said Stick” pointing out to Paranoid that their partners were injured on the ground but were still moving, indicating that they were still alive.
The people in the limo began to speed up, so Stick and Paranoid gave chase to them. As the city was filled with traffic it was hard for the van to catch up to the limo. Eventually the vehicles entered a quite city road and the van was able to pull along side the limo. Paranoid began to repeatedly smash into the side of the limo, eventually he was able to knock it off course and it went flying into a shop window. The limo ended up landing upside down , the passengers were quick to exit the vehicle and fired a couple of rounds at the van. Stick and Paranoid exited the van and used it for cover. Stick managed to pick off one of the bad guys with a shot than hit him straight in the chest. Paranoid had a clear shot at another one of them but suddenly a flying bullet hit him in the shoulder and he was forced to hide again behind the van. Stick bent down to check him and as he looked up he watched as the rest of the guys nicked a car and drove away to safety. Stick ran over to the crashed limo, inside was the dead driver and a collection of CDs and a laptop. Also in the glove compartment of the glove box were five passports, Stick could tell straight away by looking at them that they were fake.
Later on in his headquarters Stick was working away on his computer trying to identify the people that were in the limousine. This wouldn’t be hard because luckily for Stick he had photos of all of them from the passports he salvaged from the limo. Although he was sure the names were incorrect along with the other details, he still had the photo to go on. As stick was just logging on to the FBI database the phone began to ring. Stick answered the phone, it was someone from the hospital. They told Stick that the three people, his three partners were in a stable condition but would have to stay in hospital for a least three weeks, Stick then put the phone down. “Great that leaves me to handle this on my own”. Although there were other agents that could give Stick a hand, there weren’t any that were as good or who he could trust like he could trust Paranoid, Nugget and Snake. Stick looked for ID’s on the first four passports, including the one of the guy he shot, and was unable to come up with anything. Stick then looked for an ID on the man in the photo, he also had a passport for him. He found an ID, the man was called Domingo Francisco Sanchez. He knew that this ID was correct because he recalled the man in the limo saying, “Hey get into the car Sanchez” earlier. The only other information that the database had on Sanchez was that he originated from Mexico and that he liked to blow things up basically. Stick decided that it would be a good idea to pay a visit to one of his friends. The friend he had in mind was Giovanni Muskatti, he was an undercover agent that had accomplished links with some of the well known terrorist in and around the city. He was himself was posing as a terrorist and if anybody knew more about Sanchez it would probably be this man.
The next morning Stick headed off to Giovanni’s place. He lived in a massive white mansion with a swimming pool in the back garden. You know the type all the head gangsters have them and so does Giovanni to make the people who he deals with think that he is for real. Stick entered the mansion and sat down with Giovanni. “I need some information on a certain Domingo Francisco Sanchez” said stick, “All I know is that he is a very dangerous and feared man in the gangster world” replied Giovanni. “Is that all the help that you can give me?” asked Stick, he sounded surprised. “Yes, but I know a man who can give you more information and maybe even tell you what he is planning to do next. Go and see Francelli Raspiano, he likes to be called Ras for short. He hates Sanchez, he has been watching him for quite some time and might be able to help you out”. Stick decided that he would pay Ras a little visit tomorrow and decided to go home and have an early night. On the way out of the mansions grounds Stick was nearly knocked over by a speeding Van, he shouted some abuse at the driver then continued on his way home.
Stick finally got home and tuned on the TV at about 9:00pm to watch the news. “Today notorious gangster Giovanni Muskatti was brutally shot dead in his mansion home. Not much is known about the crime at this time except that it was probably committed by a mob known as the Darkside shadows. Clues that indicate this was a badge with the mob name wrote underneath it, the badge was found stamped on the forehead of Giovanni Muskatti”. “Damn, the mob might also try and target Ras. I better watch my back when I go and see him” muttered Stick to himself.
I know it looks quite long now, imagine how long it will be when it is finished. It will probably be so long the no body will bother to read it, oh well. : )
