The Silent Code
Chapter 1: The contract
Atlantic City, North America
It was a rainy night in Atlantic city, with cititzens ran for their homes or seek shelters around the Art Deco blocks of the city. Shops were closing down, ending the day's activities. But on one side of the under privilidged quarter of the city, an office remains shined by the light of its light bulb. A private eye office, with an unordinary occupant, still awake in the dead of night playing the violin to a dreaming sweet melody. He was bulky, covered from head to toe with silver armor plates, he has a reptilian, draconic snout, the prods on his face were facing backwards not forward, he has a long tail but it wasn't stubby, and his eyes they were amber tinted lenses with red stripes running down his snouts. His body has black wires to where the joints are. His name and occupation everyone knows, Kiryu, the private detective of Atlantic city. He was sitting on his chair behind his desk, playing the violin to a song of his favorite.
Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waiting for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that goes sailing
Somewhere beyond the sea, she's there watching for me
If i could fly like birds on high and straight to her arms
That goes sailing
It's why beyond the star, it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond the doubt, my heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet, we'll meet beyond the shores
We'll kiss just as before
Happy will be beyond the sea and never again i'll go sailing
But his private moment was cut short, when the door was opened, the person who was coming in, she was like an angel, she wears her favorite Cohen Lipstick, with blond haired and a long slender pair of legs covered by body stocks. She wears her casual trench coat for woman. She speaks with a soft, angel-like voice, Kiryu put away his violin and get back into his working mood, "We're closed." He said to her, coldly pointing at the sign on the door. "Something tells me a detective like you wouldn't turn down on legitimate business." She stairs out to window, waiting for Kiryu to come by and see her demands. "You got a name miss?" Kiryu asked her and offer her a smoke, she holds her cigarette over the flame of the lighter. "Elizabeth, you can call me Elizabeth. I have a job for you." She handed to him the photo of her 8 years old daughter and a contract for protection. "You want me to protect your daughter?" Kiryu read the details of Elizabeth's daughter while taking note of the photo. "Anna is her name. I believe that one of the Five Families is aftering me. Should any misfortune be fall upon me, i count on you to keep my little girl safe. If my death is inevitable, then you will have to be her big daddy."
The deal was clear, white if not blacken by the mob's death threat, Kiryu signed his signature on the contract right away and let Elizabeth took the document home. The reason, the motive or more importantly, who was aftering her, why did she come to him for protection for her daughter, they puzzles him all night long, something nasty was coming up, something worst than what happened 12 years ago when the Five Families vied for power and started a year long bloody gang war, the authority was clueless on how to stem out crimes especially organized crimes of the city. The dons and their caporegimes and consigliery were roaming free, buying up businesses one after another, bribing city's officials and politicians for protection against the laws.
