     4 young men were standing at a table. They each faced opposite of each other making a diamond shape. 

One of the men began to speak ¨we need to protect our interests slim.¨ 

¨I know that Bobby but we don't have the dough for ammo¨ slim said

¨I have enough ammo I always hit my targets.¨ responded bobby. This made one of the other men laugh.

¨you only got lucky once and I was fine after some time.¨ said the man

¨still beat you.¨ said Bobby sternly ¨now me and Slim should go find who messing with our street.¨ No objections were said ¨ Let go slim.¨

  ¨why must you involve me Bobby and not the other 2.¨ slim said trailing behind Bobby

¨Because the Otis twins work better together now shut it.¨ Slim closed his mouth and picked his pace up.  They continued to walk silently for the next few blocks where they came across a newsstand. Slim stopped walking and made a beeline for the stand. Bobby waited in the back as Slim purchased the newspaper. Slim walked back over with the newspaper in hand scanning through it. Then he stopped sitting there in awe as he looked at the paper. Bobby took a few steps to reach him and he froze as well. On the front, it read that Al Capone had been captured and sent to Alcatraz.

¨no way this is real.¨ said Bobby staring at it ¨He has more firepower than the feds.¨ 

¨well think of bright side,it's not us.¨ said slim

Bobby responded, "There are worse ways to end this life.¨ They continued to walk until they found what they had come for. A few shops on the outer edge of town. They were connected and all made out of wood with a horrible red finish. They walked into the gun store on the right where a tall older gentleman stood behind the counter. He looked concerned when the men walked in.

¨How are you doing Greg?¨ Slim said as he and Bobby walked to the counter.

Bobby was at the counter when he said ¨ I heard there was a problem with some halogens. 

Greg rested his hands on the counter ¨ yes there were these 2 guys who said this was there's now.¨

¨What did they look like?¨ said Bobby

¨They looked to be about the same height as one another, about 5,9 They were both darker and seemed to be roughly the same age.¨ Greg said while tapping his fingers on the counter. Bobby started to pace around the room looking at the ground.

¨I don't have a clue how slim you are.¨  slim shook his head ¨well I guess we'll have to do some digging.¨ said Bobby. He and Slim walked out of the gun store where it was dark. ¨We need to get back to the hideout¨ said Bobby. He and Slim started taking the back alleys shortcuts to the hideout when a shot deafened Bobby. This caused Bobby to fall to the ground holding his right ringing ear. After a second the ringing stopped and he turned around where Slim was dead. Bobby started to panic as two figures emerged from the shadows; they were the Otis twins.
