"I-I, my name is...no, I ain't telling you that man! I have a kid to feed! If they even know I said anything they'll kill me!"
"Kid I'm on your side, you want to stop them? You want to get away from them? I can make that happen. Just tell me where you are and you're name and I'll come personally to pick you up."
The man was good I'll give him that. He would make an excellent negotiator. I sighed, "no man, it's too late for me. But I ain't going without bringing these motherfuckers down too! They have a warehouse by the Manhattan pier, number 827, blue with a yellow top. They store their entire stash in there and right now we have a month's supply of drugs just waiting there. There are like four guys in there the guns, you can take them all out tonight!"
"I need more kid, names, clients, anything that will help in court."
Man this guy's greedy, maybe I should cut this short, "Bubbles running things now, he's the boss. He's going to meet some hot shot client and," I paused for dramatic effect, "shit they found me! I have to go, remember, Manhattan pier, 827, bring the whole fucking unit on these fuckers man! And for god's sake, don't use a fucking siren!"
I hung up on him and jumped off the roof, swinging away into the city. The detective will first have to get a judge to sign a warrant to search the premises. It would take some time, especially this late into the night. But I know for a fact that Barnes was determined, the chance to put his child's assaulters was too good to pass up. He would be here in an hour with SWAT.
Now, to find a lawyer. And I just happen to know one that was the most honest and upstanding man in the entire Marvel universe. I swung my way to Hell's kitchen, looks like the Devil is going to get a visit from the Spider.
I found Matt's law firm address on the net. One night I followed him home and memorised the building. I snuck down the fire escape and opened the window with my lock picks. I stepped in and shut the window behind me.
"Hello? Is someone there?" I heard is voice coming from the bedroom, it sounded so innocent. But I knew that right this second he was thinking up ways to beat the living shit out of me.
"Matt," I wished, doing my best to muffle my voice, "we need to talk."
Matt walked into the living room, his cane guiding the way, his eyes starting at the spot over my head. He was blind, but I could see the way his ears twitched he was ready for a fight.
"Please, if this a mugging please don't hurt me. I can't even protect myself, see I blind," he said with a disarming smile, "please, just take what you want and leave."
I smirked, "you're not blind Matt Murdock."
Matt paused, "what? Of course I am see, I-"
"-No, you're not. You can see...it's just too you it seems like the whole world's on fire."
His facade of the helpless innocent blond man dropped. He threw his cane forward and charged me.
"I'm not here to fight!" I knocked the cane away and jumped over his tackle and landed on the other side of the room, "I just want to talk!"
"You break into my house and just want to talk?!" Matt swung his fists at me with such precious and grace I could barely avoid them. It was only my superior reflexes and minor training that let me survivor as far as I did.
"I need a lawyer Matt, and you're the man I need," I ducked under a kick, grabbed his leg and threw him into his couch, "so sit down and listen!"
Matt jumped back up, knocked me on my back and grabbed my neck. "Give me one reason why," he growled raising a fist into air.
"I can help you get rid of the GST for good," I coughed.
"And why should I care about a street gang?"
"They-" I coughed, "they supply drugs to the Kingpin, he can't get it from anyone else," I felt his grip loosening the moment I mention the Kingpin's name, "if you can bring them all down to court you'll cut off the Kingpin's entire supply for half a year!"
Matt looked up, he got off me and stepped back, "how did you know about my sight?"
"I read your medical records," I lied, "I know you're other senses became more advanced when you lost your sight. I theorized that you used sonar to visualise the world, some scientist tried to map out the human body using the day to day sound people here and the results made it look like the man's body was on fire...I just put two and two together."
Matt was quiet, I sat down on his couch and took off his glasses, "you're smart kid."
"Thanks," I nodded getting back up.
"And also a very good liar."
"I didn't lie," I lied.
"Maybe," he hummed, "I can hear your heartbeat you know. It's racing right now, I don't know if it's adrenaline or because you're lying. But I don't believe you."
"I don't care," I took out the ledger and presented it to Matt, "this is a ledger containing every single transaction the GST has done. Every crate, every dollar. Soon you'll hear that detective Barnes just busted a warehouse filled with drugs that belongs to GST. Use this evidence I gave you and get yourself on the trial. You can strike a blow for the Kingpin's wallet while at the same time make a name for your law firm."
MAtt took the book and looked at it, "what? No braille version?"
I smirked, "Foggy's not blind is he?"
Matt put the ledger to the side and looked up at me. "How did you get this?"
"I stole it."
"Where?"
"From the warehouse."
"How did you find out about the warehouse?"
