When the chips are down.

Jack carter is a successful businessman in Las Vegas. One of the top casino's in all of Vegas, both he and his partner Jimmy Carter his brother both run a legit business, but both have never changed both have always been debt collectors, for all the money jack and jimmy lent out they wanted twice as much back. But jack was a nice guy; he'd give you more time for a good reason or call of half or even all of the debt as long as he could count on you for a favour when he asks. Jimmy on the other hand was a mentalist, it was now or never, his money or your life, and if you didn't pay what you owed with interest you were dead. Now Jack being the oldest out of the two did not like what jimmy was doing. He tried to educate him but nothing ever got through to the boy. Nobody could, well someone did. Not with words though, bit with hot lead.

March 4th

The casino was closed up for the day due to renovations. Jimmy said he was going back to the office to do some paper work. Nobody thought anything of it; jimmy was always going back to the office although no paperwork was ever done.

March 5th

The next day there was no sign of Jimmy, Jack his family and mother was worried about him, they always had to know what jimmy was doing in case it was stupid. There was no answer at his house, on the phone or anywhere else. It suddenly dawned on the family where jimmy had said he was going that night.

So Jack walked drove over to the casino, it was all closed, no disturbances jimmy's car wasn't there though. Jack opened the doors to the casino. All quiet. Not a sound. Everything in place. Jack made his way up to the office to see; as if there was even a remote chance jimmy would be there. After going from the casino he was always at strip joints or bars trying to hit on drunken prostitutes. But the door was open and Jimmy was inside. With only small lamp lighting up the room, Jimmy sat at his desk lying back on his executive chair. "You gonna say hello" Jack asked. There was no response "We were worried about you, didn't know where you were, you okay," He asked No reply. "Look you can chill out here all day if you want, but it's the only time off were gonna get this year ya know come stay with your family, we even brought mom up from Seattle." Jack gave a small smirk "Maybe you should stay here then not many people can stand mom eh," Jack said as he playfully hit his brother's arm. It dropped to the floor. Jacks face dropped. "Jimmy" "Jimmy" he repeated. He switched the main lights on. And turned away in horror.
