The Gangster and The Princess
CHAPTER 1
He was the most hardcore man of the 1930's between the great depression where liquor was forbidden. he was tall with a muscular frame, his blue aqua green eyes and black hair made any man feel intimidated. He wore a cream suit with a pink tie and brown dress shoes. he walked into his office where a fat short man in a black and grey striped suit sat in the opposite direction of where his desk and chair was. he sat down." so were here to do business eh. Let me be frank me and your father and my father have been friends for a long time now, i want you to gather up some men and help me get some liquor into the state for a friend in New York." he asked crunching his eyebrow handing the fat man a cigar out of the box and lit it for him. " So what are you going to do for me if we help get the liquor into the states ahh?" A short fat man asked while puffing on his cigar. "Well if you where wise to know..." He said while showing his gun in his jacket. "You would help me get it there and ill spear your life.,, how about that Vinnie" he laugh and smile at the man then his face got serious . He got up out of his chair and grabbed Vinnie by the collar and pushed him against the wall, pulling his gun out pointing at the bottom of his chin. "I think you understand know huh Vinnie?" he ask cocking the gun back. "Yes Duncan i understand ill send don and charlie down with some other man will be waiting at the dock of Wawanakwa" he said his eyes where literally popping out of his eyes. "Much better , i knew you'll see it my way." he chuckled Vinnie the fat man walked out of the office muttering under his breath as he closed the door. There was a knock on the door "come in" Duncan said firmly. "Geoff." he stood up kissing his cheeks. a tall man with blue eye and blonde hair had on a a tan fedora hat and pink suit with brow dress shoes walked up to hug him. "long time no see, what do you have for me today uh?" he asked with a big smile on his face while they both sat down and pulled out a cigar for him to smoke on. "Not what who." he smiled "Who...?" Duncan asked looking uncanny." my wife Bridgette has a friend of hers coming down to stay with us for a while; shes a doll she tan one though." he said laughing
" i wounder if her kitten the same color eh" they both laughed and gave a smirk. "Were going to get her in an hour from her train station you should come and see her for yourself." he said reassuring him. "hhm well why the fuck not." he said getting up and putting the cigar out. double checking his pockets making sure he was strapped. they walked out the door down a long hallway into the front of the house where it had look like a normal house. They walked out of the door and outside was a Barley Motor car. they got in and drove through a few neighborhood till they got to a huge house that was blue. out side was a girl around the age of 18 blonde hair and green eyes with a white dress on she smiled as we got up to her and got into the car and kissed Geoff. "hello Duncan ." she said smiling at me. "hi Bridgett , you look lovely today" i smiled turning around. " thank you. Geoff we have to be there by two ." she said with a giant smile on her face looking like a little kid getting candy. "We will." he said. we finally got to the train station ad parked the car and got out along with Bridgette people where talking and buzzing around. we walked inside of the station as Bridgett scanned the floor for her friend she ran up to a girl talking to a porter holding her luggage. "Bridgette!" she yelled hugging her tight and laughing. " oh Courtney its been such a long time how have you been?!" Bridgett smiled and laughed. "I've been fine and you." she says looking up at Geoff then turns her head towards me. She was mocha colored with brown medium length hair and grey eyes. she was defiantly a skirt she had on a pink dress they brought out her hair and eye color. i stared at her until Geoff and Bridgette spoke." this is my husband friend Duncan . don't be rude Duncan say some thing.?!" Bridgette snapped at me. "hi i'm Duncan , and you are? i asked taking a gulp " Courtney " she said smiling at me . her smile made me feel weak because her beauty was amazing. "we should get going i'm sure Courtney tired dear." Bridgette said poking Geoff in the arm. "yes your right" Geoff said "Duncan grab the girls' bag he said whispering in my ear. "Let me take that for you." I said grabbing her bag "thank you " she said smiling at me "So is this your first time being in this part of Canada?" i asked smiling "In Canada no This side of the country yes." she said putting her head down. "Oh is see how about tomorrow i take you out to town?" i asked nervously looking her in her eyes. um...i would- " she was cut off by Bridgette " this the car Geoff how about we all go out to diner to celebrate her arrival she asked sweetly. " Me and Duncan Got some business to handle tonight" He says looking at me . The rest of the car ride was long and quiet. we pulled in to the long drive way of the the two story house. it was huge with tall columns and large doors. the maids where standing out side of the house where they took our coats and Courtney bags. we all followed Bridgette to the giant living room where we all sat down and talked. Geoff and i had got up and left to go to the back of the house that was hidden behind a bookcase . it was the shabby and odd looking part of the house. "whats going on tonight.?" he asks ""You remember Vinnie , Well he agreed too help us With a little bit of a push." i said smiling at him. "where does he want us to meet him?" he ask me "The dock Wawanakwa. All we need to do is have the 200 barrels of whisky ready to go." i say to him " You know the last time we couldn't trust him and turned on us." he said looking concerned.

Vinnie was standing out side of an abandoned building when we had showed. he was unpleasantly nervous looking around the empty lot."Vinnie whats wrong you look a little scared" I say to him starting feel that something was wrong i turned toward Geoff. My people where standing behind me and Geoff guns up 38 super ready to shoot off anyone who stands in our way. "it nothing wrong nothing at all." he said beginning to sweat " well lets get to business then boys. i say to Vinnie. W make our way to the back of the building where suddenly a large group of men where waiting . the net thing i remember is that gun fire. Geoff got hit in the chest and the mark never went away. me and Geoff both pulled out if our guns and began to shoot. Vinnie coward ass had ran out the minute they started shooting. i hit a man right int he heart "Its the FEDS!" one man yells while still shooting away at the cops in disguised. Me and Geoff barely made it out and only few of our men. i never forgot that day and i promised myself that i would get Vinnie back this time. The only problem was how he was the biggest man in the bootlegging king and had connections all over canada..
Flashback ends
"Where going to get him back tonight hes going to wish he never fucked with us" I say in an angry tone. we reach a room loaded with gun and other weapons. "Our boys are already ready waiting near the dock for us to show up." Geoff says to me. We pack of ready to go we walk from behind the book case me and Geoff sits down in the book room. "So what do you think of Courtney " he asks grinning. "She a skirt it makes me wanna take her home tonight." He laughs loudly "told you she was a dime" he said smiling. "I asked her to come out to town with me tomorrow night i never did get that answer." i said with a scoff. " I'll go get her and you can ask her in person." he says with a smile on his face while walking out the room. A few minutes later Courtney walked into the room the sun brushed against her hair showing her red highlights. "you wanted me?" she asked scrunching up her face. "yes i wanted my answer for tomorrow night i said awkwardly blushing. "Oh.. well um sure OK tomorrow night at 8 is that fine with you" she asks blushing while looking me in the eyes. I realized that she had light brown freckles going a crossed her nose. "ok ...Look pretty for me." i said while adding a wink she blushed and walked out of the room and Geoff walked back in."So how did it go with Courtney?" he asked. "She said yes tomorrow night at 8 if everything goes to plan today." i say to him looking at the clock to check the time. it was a quarter after 9. "Time to go " I say to Geoff. we walk down the main stairs to the girls . "where about to leave Babe" Geoff says to Bridgette diving in for a kiss as if it was their last. I winked at Courtney and made her blush then she turned away as if it meant nothing to her when Geoff and Bridgette got done. me and Geoff walked out the door into the car making sure that both guns where in each side and on our ankle . Locked and loaded and ready to go. We reached the dock on the outskirts of the city and began to get out of the car our men all lined up and ready to go. Me and Geoff where on full alert. Soon Vinnie came out of the back of a steam boat and shook our hand. We all headed onto the boat and our men standing guard. "Welcome ." he said giving us a box of cigs and a glass of wine. we didn't drink until he drunk making sure it wasn't poisoned. after that we dunk and began to talk. " the men already put the booze on the boat. do you want to see?" he asked smiling . we nodded our heads walking out side towards the boat my men where lined up sadly Vinnie came with his bodyguard. I punched Vinnie and he fell to the ground shocked and confused. I pulled my gun out and pointed it to his head. "You remember what you did to me 1 year a go well thanks for your help getting the booze to the states." i said smiling happy laugh Geoff pulled his gun out and pointed it at the man behind Vinnie who must have been his body guard. " your making a mistake boy do you know who i am i'm Vinnie." he said "Ill give you anything you want: Woman,money,power,fame. anything!" he said "OK fine wheres your safe and what the code?" i asked him "the safe is under my bed in the boat the combination is 3-23-45-23-19-4!" he said . "Go." i said to him walking towards the boat. Geoff never put the gun down. "Oh and boys.." i said to my men "kill them" i said as they fired hell at them and keep shooting till hey ran out of bullets ensuring they where dead Mark one of my best mean put the bullet in their heads. me and Geoff picked up the safe putting it in the car. i gave the guys their cut and got in the car pulling off. we got to Geoff house the lights where all out and except in the living room i walked and Geoff when straight into Bridgette and his room. I opened the door and Courtney was sitting on the couch. "Courtney your still up"? i say t her as she looks up at me.
