Chapter Nine

The Gangsters in Blade City

Meanwhile the man with the finger-knives had run from the alley and had gotten onto an old motorcycle, he drove out of Mobotropolis and drove fast towards another city a few miles away, Blade City.

Blade City was a large but very dirty and dangerous city, full of gangs, whores and drug dealers, many of the areas were abandoned and the homeless would hide out in the abandoned buildings, and drug dealers would make their homes there. In the Upper areas, many gangsters and glamorous gangs made their homes. Criminals felt safe in Blade City for the law would never venture in there; many who did were overpowered by the drug fueled gangs.

The man drove through the streets, many homeless people and drug dealers looked up at him, yet didn't do anything, the man then drove to the heart of Blade City were the large apartments and warehouses were. He parked his bike and walked up to an apartment. "The boss is gonna kill me" he said to himself.

He walked in and walked towards some doors to a lift, he pressed the button of the floor he wanted to go on and the lift took him up. When the doors opened he walked to some doors. He then knocked on them. As he knocked a little peephole opened and two green eyes appeared "Password?" came a voice on the other side.

The Man spoke the password then the hole shut and a smartly dressed weasel opened the door "come in Kruger" he said. Kruger walked in flexing his fingers as they hung by his sides. He walked into a dark room with only a little light hanging from the ceiling with a desk in the darkness.

He then stepped into the light, "Back so soon Kruger?" came a deep voice, "Tony" said Kruger, he took off a scarf he had around his neck revealing himself to be a brown cat with no fur. "I sent you on a mission track down the wife of that lousy man who borrowed my money"

"We found the woman Tony" said Kruger "me and my two fellow rapists, he cornered her and were about to rape her" he paused as he saw a red light like the end of a cigar light up then smoke appeared being blown into the light. "You didn't do the deed!" growled the voice, calm but showing anger.

"But sir, there was a man in black, he cancelled our plans and killed my men" he then saw a grey hand appear and stub out the cigar in a crystal ashtray on the desk, "It was that Assassin sir!" said Kruger "The Angel of Darkness" "The Angel of Darkness" growled the voice "the man that killed Razor and his gang after they murdered his parents"

Kruger stood still and looked into the darkness, he then saw the grey hand pick up a flick knife and stab into the desk, in the blade's place was a CCTV picture of Angel. "That bastard!" growled the voice "Foiling my plans!" "Do you wish me to give it another go?" asked Kruger flexing his finger knives.

"No" said the voice, "We'll track that couple down again, but we'll think of a better plan….and a nasty way to make that man repay his debt" Kruger smirked a little. "I believe I know what you're planning boss" said Kruger. Smoke then appeared from the darkness again, then Kruger heard movement, then he saw a figure moving in the darkness before moving into the light.

Kruger smirked as a smartly dressed grey wolf with shiny black hair appeared, he was tall and broad shouldered and he looked no older than Twenty-four. "We shall not let that assassin get the better of us" he said "you're right Tony" said Kruger "I shall try again" Tony then took out a shiny revolver, "no-one escapes Two-Face Tony" he said "I will get what I'm owed"

Kruger smirked again, "Gather the boys" said Tony "I've got other business to attend to" he turned to a door leading to a small room. Kruger smirked again, "some other bastard hasn't paid you yet?" he asked. Tony just smirked and walked away from him towards the door, then Kruger walked the other way out the door he came in.

When Kruger had gone, Tony opened the door to the other room, as he opened it, the sound of crying was heard, Tony then walked in and placed the gun in his pocket. There in the middle of the room was a young girl fox no older than eight tied to a chair. "hello Lucy" he said.

The little girl sobbed again, "You've been very good and quiet" said Tony, "now I can get what I need to get done" he walked over and stroked through the little girl's hair. "Once your father pays up, you'll be a free girl, no scratch on you" the little girl sobbed, "please don't hurt me…" she whimpered.

"Don't cry Lucy" said Tony as he kneeled before her and took out a camera, "I won't hurt you, unless your father pays up, and I'm sure he will after he's seen this" he then took the girl's picture then stood up. "I'm sure after he's seen this, he'll be paying me in no time" He then stood up and stroked the girl's hair again. He then left the room leaving the poor frightened girl alone.

So Two-Face Tony is the man Kruger's working for! He seems to be the new Napoleon of Crime!
