Chapter 5:

"Come on kid, either you do this or we kill you because I don't think your Daddy would like to know that you've been doing something for the Mob, now do you?" Luxord prodded the young as he placed a small arms caliber pistol in the young red head's hands.

"Just aim, pick the target…and BOOM!" another voice from behind him remarked as he placed a light hand upon the boy's shoulder as the slender fingers moved over his as the gun, no longer trembling, rose up and aimed, took fire and shot the man before the young man.

The man who had been standing in front of the red head had been his father, Reno, the man had been known as a honest man, but it seemed that ever since Prohibition had been implemented; he was seeking new means of business. He had done it by running errands for the Mob, but he was lately stealing funds from the errands and jobs he had been doing. His son had overheard the men talking one evening and knew that his Dad was in trouble.

"So, you want to save your Dad?" Xemnas' amber eyes peered through the darkness of his office; his men were along the sides of his desk.

"Ye...Ye...YES!" the red head responded, tears staining his face.

"Hmm…there is something you could do to save him," a long haired blonde moved forward and draped his arms down the front of the young boy as something cold and metal was placed in his hands, "You could do our job for us."

He understood, but his young mind was screaming otherwise until he heard the "BANG" of the pistol being shot off regardless of his Father's pleas to not do it while all the while, the Mob Boss was watching.

He saw the shot fire off and a small smile crossed his face; "Very well done, Axel, very well done, you shall make a fine addition to our little family," the Boss took the pistol from the young man's shaking hands and patted him lightly on the head as he was taken by the hand and lead away into the night.

"Father…I'm sorry…."Axel softly spoke out as he felt hot tears starting to hit on his face and onto the hardwood floor of the room; he wiped away at them as he left the room, "I suggest you get some rest…tomorrow, you met our Boss; hopefully he won't decide to kill you."
