Finding a Dark Hero

Mike sits up in his chair, watching the video on the news with anger and rapt attention. "What the fuck?!" He just watched his own brother, Roger, the one person he cherishes more than himself, get beaten by a masked man on the television.He grabs the telephone on the table and proceeds to press in some numbers and then he has a rethink and drops it. He picks up his own hand phone and dials another number."Hello?""Mr Drumlin, what's the occasion that you're calling me this afternoon?" A male voice climbs into Mike's ears from the other side of the call."Hank, we have to meet." Mike responds clean cut without any pleasantries.The voice on the other side also loses the informal tone and changes abruptly. "Yes sir. Where?""Now, in thirty minutes, let's meet up at X club.""A club? By this time in the afternoon?""Don't ask questions. Meet me there."And he hangs up. Immediately, he stands up from his chair and grabs his coat and car keys. He opens the door of his office and steps o

Consequences

A slightly robust man is pushed to stand in front of Hank in the next few minutes. Hank stands up and walks behind him before kicking him at the heel, making the manager go down on his knees in pain."Ow..."Hank snickers. "Ow? OW? When your most regular and well paying customer was being beaten with a police bat, there was nothing from you and just a kick in the knee and you're already in pain? Do you know what that son of a bitch used to hit Roger?"The manager just clenches his lips in fear."You won't say anything? Well, to spare you the trouble. He used a police bat... And I'll show you what it feels like, maybe you'll still mutter an ow."A policeman hands Hank a thick black police bat and Hank raises it up in the air. "This is what you get for being a disloyal piece of shit."And for the next five minutes, the man endures the worst beating he has ever gone through for his whole life, and with a police bat.Hank stops and casts aside the broken bat. "Now, to the next stage." He

Shoulder droops

There's a slight knock at the door."Please come in." Ashton responds as he rises off his office chair and ushers Doctor Forrest into a chair. "I hope it wasn't hard finding this place?"Forrest shakes his heaf curtly and smiles. "Not at all. The GPS was my lifesaver so it wasn't hard getting here at all. It's a nice building you have here."Ashton smiles. "Didn't take you for a sweet talker."Forrest laughs lightly, taking off his glasses and wiping them. "I'm a young man, I have many prospects. I have to get close to the right people."Ashton nods understandingly. "Tea, coffee or juice?""Fruit juice please. I cut bodies open, I don't think I can handle coffee seeing how much it damages their internal organs and I just hate tea. So fruit juice please."Ashton presses the button on his table and speaks into it. "Two glasses of fruit juice please.""So, why did you choose to be a doctor who autopsies for a living?"Forrest laughs. "We don't study to become autopsy doctors. Just like o

Concrete evidence.

"Do you recognize this lady?""Have you seen her before?""Have you picked up a lady that looks like this before? Probably around a week plus ago?"Ivy sighs as she watches the men ask their fellow taxi drivers as she also goes around asking some of them as well. "Have you seen her before?""Sorry, I haven't."All of the answers have being negative but they have continued with rows and rows of Camry taxis.Why the hell did she think it was going to be easy at first? Camry taxis sounded somehow scarce so she never toyed with the fact that they were going to be so much, although, lucky for her, they are all around for their lunch break so she won't have to come back another time."Have you seen this lady before?""Yes. I recognize her."Ivy's ears snap up in the direction of the affirmative response and she walks fast through over there. "Excuse me please." As she gets there, she stands in front of the man who gave the positive response. "You recognize her?"He nods. "Very well. When I

Caught Money-handed

"So there's an accomplice in this case..." Ashton mutters, taking a big drink out of his glass.Forrest nods. "Anyway, I have done my part. It's a pity she died though. How was she related to you all?""She was my ex fiancee, don't worry, I was the one who called the marriage off. And to my wife, she was her enemy and to Liam, she was a colleague. She managed to get under each and every one's skin."Doctor Forrest chuckles. "Not nice to speak ill of the dead but I understand what you mean. It's sad to say but she probably got under someone's skin and that person did this to her. Although it was probably an accident and then panic dumped her where she really died." Forrest finishes his drink and stands up, clearing his throat gently.Ashton stands up as well. "You've been an enormous help Doctor Forrest.""Please just call me Kyle and it is my pleasure to have being a help so such a person as yourself."Ashton grins. "Still the lobbyist I see."Kyle shrugs and laughs. "I can't seem to

Some Interesting Facts.

Richard suddenly has a flashback. He had seen Arielle at the club that night and remembered speaking to her but about what, he doesn't remember. How had he paid for his drinks?How had he woken up in that motel?There must have been someone else there who can tell him everything or at least, some fragments of what really happened that night. Without following her gaze that's fixed on something behind him, he knows she staring at the money on the table.Richard keeps on fidgeting and asking himself the same question over and over again. Did I tell Arielle he had two billion dollars?Because if he did, he needs to repair his door soon, and very very soon so he grabs his phone right in her presence and calls the company that repaired it for him in previous times and makes an appointment for the next one hour.She can't possibly get anything done within the next hour.While on Arielle's end, she's still furiously thinking on how she will lay her hands on that money and get the hell out

Heads or Tails?

Ashton pulls out a chair for Ivy to sit in before he walks around and sits opposite her.A woman in her seemingly mid forties approaches them. "Welcome to Dahee. What would you like to have?"The duo peruse the menu and think quietly.Ivy speaks first. "I would like some Udon noodles and Tteobokki." Ivy smiles while the woman chuckles. "Your accent is quite heavy on the words, they are pronounced as Udon and Tteobokki. It's quite simple but I'm native Korean so it's probably easier for me."Ivy laughs lightly. "I'll keep the pronunciations in mind."Ashton raises his head next. "Make the tteobokki a large one, then a medium sized donkatsu with cold noodles."She chuckles again. "Coming right up sir and ma'am."As soon as she leaves, Ivy chuckles lightly. "Even I can tell you didn't pronounce that other food correctly.""Donkatsu?"Ivy laughs. "Yeah, that one but that does not matter right now. We have things to share to one another and it's both pointing at one thing, Tiara's murder.

The Most Beautiful Moment

After a long day at work, hours after Ashton and Ivy had met for lunch.Ivy receives a phone call from Ashton. "Hello?""Hello darling, I'm downstairs. We can leave when you're ready."Ivy smiles. She's tired, too tired to drive. "I'll be right down. I'm exhausted and would appreciate the drive."Few minutes later, Ivy meets Ashton downstairs and gets into the car. She smiles tenderly. "Thank you for picking me up. Without you, I would have just taken a taxi to the hospital.""That's why I'm your husband. Let's go."They drive down to Axis Hospital and go in, taking the elevator to Veronica's room where she's walking around, laughing aloud, along with Damien who's teaching her to do some sort of dance."Is this supposed to be so hard? I can't just get it."They stop for a moment to acknowledge the couples presence. "Welcome.""Thank you. What are you both up to?" Ivy asks as she places her bag on the bed and sits, watching them as Ashton also takes a seat beside her."He's teaching me

If she really had no skeleton in her cupboard, she would not have had any reason to run but if course, she knows that she is deeply involved in Tiara's death and the anger of her now forty eight million followers follow her everywhere, even though, Arielle herself now has twenty two thousand followers, all of them coming to curse her posts.Arielle on the other hand, is nowhere to be found.There is a bang on Richard's door. He frowns as he rolls off the bed, grumbling.Since he's jobless, he makes it a point to just stay in and sleep all day and at night, he makes a long party ride around town, visiting a ton of clubs and ending at motels with w
