Cereal Kidnapper
Dell turned the nob slowly and finally with a stroke of bravery kicked it open and entered the room, several heads turned to look at him, more then he can count. His sudden bravery disappeared as the men quickly surrounded him all holding various blunt objects.
'' Nice suit kid, you some sort of gender confused daddy? ''
'' I.. I ''
'' What the hell are you doing here ''
'' I'm looking -f-f-for my brother ''
'' Why the hell would he be here? ''
The men began closing In on him. Dell bit his lip for a moment and regained composure.
'' A man in a trench coat and bandages covering his face. ''
One of the thugs eyes widened and they all turned to him, Dell assumed this one was the leader.
'' … Would this man in the trench be your brother? ''
'' No, he kidnapped my brother. ''
'' We know who you're talking about kid and he ain't one of ours. ''
'' Do you know where I can find him? ''
'' I might, but why the hell should I help you? ''
'' I'm assuming, by your tone that you don't like him? ''
'' That's correct, he belongs to another syndicate. ''
'' If you help me find him, I'll take care of him.. For good. ''
The man glanced over to his friends and began laughing uncontrollably.
'' Kid, you don't even look like you could take on a little sister, tell you what.. I'll tell you where he is if you do us a favor? ''
The man walked over to dell, looking down on him sinisterly.
'' W-What do you want me to do? ''
'' Well, I won't doubt your talents completely, you did just recklessly kick our door open. ''
'' Y-Y-Yeah... ''
'' You look like a nice guy, you see, me and all my pals here are on a black list, our faces are instantly recognized by authorities. ''
'' Okay. ''
'' You, on the other hand look non-threatening and safe, we have a big problem with a specific officer whose hasn't been taking our generous bribes or getting off our case. ''
'' Go on. ''
'' I need you, to take care of her permanently, do this and you will not only prove your loyalty to us but your skill as well, because lets face it, If you can't take down an officer you can't take down that bandaged freak. ''
'' How will I find this officer? ''
The man reached into his pocket and pulled out a photo and carelessly tossed it to Dell.
'' Her name is Sasha, shes the sheriff of this district, take her out and her and all her little deputies are off our backs and we're free to run our business as usual. A couple of our spies have seen her recently near upper midtown. ''
'' Upper midtown? ''
'' Is that a problem?
'' Uhh... No not at all. ''
'' Come back when the job is done, and bring back proof. ''
Dell looked up at the tall paled skinned thug, he in all honesty wanted to refuse but the mans rough scarred face convinced him otherwise. He nodded and ran out of the bar.
'' Upper midtown.. That's near where Dom lives. I'm in so much crap if they see me... ''
He took a look at the photo and frowned.
'' Shes pretty, It's a shame i have to kill her. ''
Meanwhile
Dom ran outside and took a seat on a bench, she wrapped her arms on her lap and buried her face into them.
'' Dom, you okay? ''
She looked up to see Sasha standing above her, she scooted over to allow her a seat and buried her face back into her lap.
'' Sasha, I don't feel like talking. ''
'' …. I understand. ''
Sasha began to get up by Dom grabbed her and pulled her back.
'' … I don't wanna talk but, I don't wanna be alone either. Don't leave. ''
'' Look Dom, There will be others - ''
'' I'ts not just about Eleanor dammit, My son is still missing and I'm not doing crap about it. I feel so useless. ''
'' Dom, I'm here to help you with that, we WILL find him. ''
The twos conversation was suddenly interrupted by loud footsteps, they both looked up and Dom rushed up to greet Delta who had just arrived.
'' Delta! Did you find Johnny? ''
'' Uhh.. No ''
'' Why the hell are you here then? ''
'' Whoa why are you so mad all the sudden? Also whose your friend? ''
Sasha got up and greeted Delta, explaining to him who she was
'' Oh, an officer. Nice you meet you Sasha. ''
He was cut short from asking any questions when Dom cut in-between the two.
'' Why the hell aren't you looking for Johnny? ''
'' Sigh.. Dom, I can't do it... ''
'' WHY NOT? ''
'' I'm just not what I used to be, besides Fontaine has his goons working on leads and he made me and Jack feel.. ''
'' Feel what? Dammit stop being so emotional your a guy. ''
'' Whats gender have to do with - ''
Delta was interrupted once more as Dom broke into tears.
'' Dom.. All this crying is so unlike you. ''
Sasha put a hand on Delta's shoulder.
'' Trust me Sir, It's actually a lot more like her then you think. ''
Delta raised a brow in confusion and got on a knee to comfort her.
'' Dom, What else is wrong? ''
'' Eleanor dumped me. ''
'' What? ''
'' Not only that but shes upstairs with my Sister doing who knows what. ''
'' Jeez.. I'm so sorry.. I don't know what to say. ''
Dom pondered for a moment and came up with an idea.
'' Delta... Can I come with you to your place? ''
'' Are you asking what I think you're asking? ''
'' Maybe.. ''
Meanwhile
As Delta and Dom disappeared from sight Sasha took a look at her watch and decided it was time for her to head home. She really wanted to help Dom but her reluctance and inability to open up made it impossible. She sighed and began walking down, She lived in Midtown too but all the way across on the other side.
While it would be a long walk, what would a Big Sister, yet alone an officer have to worry about, even at this time of day. She began whistling as she trekked through the dark cold halls of rapture when something caught the corner of her eye, she turned quickly squinting in the dark to see if she could see someone.
Behind her she heard footsteps coming at her fast, she turned quickly and caught someone and threw them to the ground hard. She lifted her customized revolver at the assailant.
'' Hands in the air now. ''
'' Oh man I'm sorry don't shoot me. ''
She got a better look at the criminal, He was a young man wearing an oddly thin but handsome looking Daddy armor.
'' What exactly were you trying to do? ''
'' I.. Uhh.. Couldn't see where I was going and I almost.. ran.. into you. ''
'' Your story sounds off, whats the real problem Sir? ''
Dell began sweating nervously, his plan to rush her and tackle her down failed miserably. He had to find a way out of this fast.
'' I uhh... ''
'' Well.. Spit it out will you? ''
'' I thought you were attractive so I purposely... tried to bump into you? ''
'' Oh.. ''
Sasha blushed under her helmet, she thought the young man was cute.
'' Well.. If you wanted to hit on me you could of offered me a drink. ''
Dell sighed in relief, he couldn't believe that worked.
'' So.. you're on board then? How about a drink? ''
Sasha smiled and nodded.
'' Okay, you pick the place. ''
