Chapter 1: The beginning. It all started nine years ago. It was dark and stormy, I was young 19 to be exact. The plan was almost complete we were ignorant, stupid even. Just to think we could rob a store was unreal. Almost impossible really, we were at the bottom of the barrel then, getting 5, maybe 10 percent of the cut we were meant to this would set us up for LIFE,5000 grand although, things went awful Bryan got shot, Jace is in the can and I well I'm in a terrible run down apartment. Then Rick, he never wanted any trouble just money but he didn't make it. All of a sudden BOOM reality hit me straight in the face. I'm just a rat a weasel, but even a rat survives. I'm thinking of settling down getting ready to end this pathetic way I live.
Chapter 2:Why?.
I've just gotten back from the bar still devastated about the death of Bryan. He died a few weeks ago, such a tragic loss but still he's in a better place now the guilt is gnawing at me still, knowing that I caused his death. Just then I hear sirens, worried but faithfull I look outside seeing myself in the reflection not a man, I saw but a lying worthless rat. I opened the door looked at myself and went into the rain, where I felt warm as it slowly washed away my thoughts. A few minutes past and I looked over the streets the lights, moon and families. It saddens me to think about this though.
Chapter 3:Hope.I woke up the next morning feeling tired and stressed but that wouldn't stop me today, as I was going to bail Jace.I got my hoodie and gloves, fired up my motorcycle and went to yorkster hour or so passed and I got there, the fine was 250,000 grand. But I have a lot more cash, anyways I got looked angry, and I can't blame him being in prison for 9 and a half years can change a man. I asked if he needed anything he asked if he could stay, I said yeah c'mon why would I say no? Once we were back we went up stairs I gave him his clothes I got from his old apartment. I got on the couch offered him a beer and we watched the football game.
Chapter 4: Heavy Rain
I got out of bed and looked for Jace I saw him dead asleep on the couch, I didn't wake him. It WAS his first sleep on an actual was interrupted quickly as I knew I had to pay my $250 rent but I had a lot more money. Now, you're probably wondering why such a low rent? Well yeah that's the problem, like I said earlier my apartment is low end so not so good quality means not so good money for the landlord. Anyways Jace and I met on the high school Football team, we became friends after that then running buddies. Then I thought about Lauren, she is my Girlfriend and we really love each other but she is in California for vacation and I am still here in Las venturas. Just then Jace woke up and we had some breakfast wraps. Then I called Lauren and we talked for a while she said she missed me, in all honesty I miss her too. And that's all for now.
Chapter 6 : Getting somewhere
After I took Lauren to the apartment, I told her about why Jace is here and other things that changed, she too was saddened about the loss of Bryan I still miss him too but he's where he belongs. Lauren told me that she needs another place to live, like my apartment wasn't enough I agreed with her so I told her I'd find a place for us. I told Jace even he thinks I should move, so I looked for open houses on web flag and found an okay house in the hills for 650,000 dollars, so I told Lauren and she was okay, I told Jace he could stay in my apartment as long as he could stay out of trouble. So Lauren and I agreed we'd take the house. So yeah that's that.
Chapter 7: Better life, Better family
A few weeks later we moved in, it was perfect and now that I know the way around the
house , for some reason I felt empty, depressed almost I don't know why. Then Lauren called me she said she wanted to go out to eat I decided it was the day of our move so I said yes.
We ordered, ate and went home
