The streets were silent beside the mindless chatter of a gaggle of drunken men, none of the mafias of New Orleans were active. Everyone had gone into hiding, and were waiting for an attack to be able to fire back at. Little did the Snakepit know, the Weasels were planning something horrible to get their message across once and for all.
George who was just starting to go clean of drugs,alcohol, and smoking was coming out of the law office late at night, long after dark. He looked at a busted street light and sighed as he walked to his car, he was stopped by three of Weasel's favorite henchmen. " Sunny and Monty! What a nice surprise." George joked dryly, "What do you need, if Viper finds out you're on our side of the city we're going to have issues."
" I guess this is a stick up, give us your wallet and your keys." Monty grinned as another car pulled up.
George laughed for a second " Ha! no." He smiled as he wasnt a pushover at all, he knew how to stand his ground but he had two rules; Keep the Blood off your hands was the first. The second was: Do no harm, Take no shit, but Beg no man pardon.
These rules had sustained him for many years, keeping him out of jail and under the police radar, but things were about to change.
" You're lucky we're not by the bay...you would have been dead already.." Sunny Chuckled,
" Oh really? So if you're so confident, Tell me something , why do you wear those bandages? and why did Iris Carrow catch you with Jack Kingston?" George smirked
" Dont bring Jack into this..." Sunny sighed as her cheeks lit up, Truth was; She had a soft spot for Jack, they had gone to High School together and had been long time friends.
" What would Weasel do if he knew you liked Jack and wouldnt kill him, even if you had the chance?" George asked as he tried to verbally back Sunny into a corner.
The flustered red head , got furious and took George's glasses and snapped them in half.
" If I've heard correctly from our lovely ,Elisabeth, you are blind as a badger without your glasses." Monty teased as she tossed the glasses right in front of a moving car.
" My Glasses!" George Yelped.
" We Might let you go if you relay this damn message to your Viper from Weasel...' Stay off of our damn turf and make sure to be wary of those surrounding you..' Rumor has it, their's a mole in your midst.." Monty purred.
" What? I havent heard that.." He sighed " we havent gotten any new folks to the group?"
" Think closely, anyone could be the rat." Monty told him as she brushed back her thick curly black hair. Her thick curls were topped with a bow which swayed as she walked.
" we should save the fun for the big boys..." Sunny chuckled as two taller men got out of the car, "Ryan! Paul! How are you?" George asked before getting punched in the stomach by Paul.
" Yup..I deserved that.." George groaned as he tried to catch his breath.
" Be glad you arent by the bay, pretty boy." Ryan chuckled as he punched George in the face, giving him a black eye.
" You're only know for beating the shit out of people, you cant do anything by the bay, you're not good in water.." George teased, which just ended up with him getting slapped across the face.
"And you don't fight back, it makes you weaker " Paul huffed
" And I'm not the one in and out of the hospital!" George smiled knowing he was starting to bruise.
" Oh shut up!" Paul huffed as he took a baseball bat and slammed it into George's knees.
George cried out in pain, " you are weak. You are nothing..." Paul hissed before leaving.
George called Eli ; " Hey Babe? I just got the shit beat out of me, can you come pick me up and drive me to the ER?" He asked him.
" who got you this time?" Eli sighed as he put on shoes and got his keys.
" Sunny, Elliot, Monty, Paul and Ryan.." George shivered.
" Not them again, where are you?" Eli asked his boyfriend.
" By the law office... they got me when I was coming to my car after work." George told him.
" not again." Eli huffed as he got in the car and drove to where George was.
