*Mafia big shot Johnny Fontaine dies*

*timid son takes over family business*

*Johnny Fontaine dies... Underworld Empire in question*

Hunter sat in his fathers chair with his head in his hands. He never knew why his father would be a Crime boss. He didnt want that life but he knew he was already in.
"hey kid, you got someone who wants to see you." said Tom Hagan the Consigliere of the family.

"...ok..." hunter said extremely tired. A man steps in while Hunter stands up to greet him. The man kisses Hunters ring. "Don Fontaine. I came to you for help." the man said.
Hunter gestured with his hand in an acknowledgement. The man sat down.

"I believe in America. America has made my fortune, and I raised my family in the American fashion. I gave my daughter freedom and teaching her to never dishonor her family. She found a boyfriend, not an Italian. She went to the movies with him, she stayed out late. I didn't protest. 2 months ago, he took her for a drive with another boyfriend, they made her drink whiskey and then tried to take advantage of her.

She resisted, and they beat her... Like an animal. When I went to the hospital, her nose was broken, and her jaw was shattered, held together by wire. She couldn't even weep because of the pain, but I wept. Why did I weep? She was the light of my life.... A beautiful girl.

Now she will never be beautiful again. *Hunter gestures his hand towards Tom to hand the man a drink* I went to the police, like a good American. These two boys were brought to trial. The judge gives them a sentence of 5 years in prison and suspended the sentence. Suspended the sentence! They went free that very day. I stood in the courtroom like a fool. And those two bastards, they smiled at me. And I said to my wife 'for justice, we must go to Don Fontaine.' the man elaborated.


"why did you go to the police? Why not come to me first?" Hunter replied fixing his tie.
"What do you want of me? Tell me anything, but do what I beg of you to do." the man said.
"what is that?"

The man got up and walked over behind Hunters desk. He leaned in and whispered something into his ear.
"that I cannot do." Hunter answered.
"I'll give you anything you ask." the man said.
"you ask me to do murder for money."
"I ask you for justice" the man replied.
"that is not justice, your daughter is still alive." Hunter answered.
"at least they suffer what she suffers? The man pleaded.

Hunter thought about it for a minute.
"ok. Someday-and that day may never come-I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until then, consider this, justice." Hunter said
"Grazie, Don Fontaine."
"Prego." the man left.

"give this to... Clamenza. I want reliable people, who won't get carried away. We are not murderers." Hunter said to Tom.
"Boss. Aiden is on the phone. He wants to see you today." Clamenza said with his hand to the mouthpiece.

"ok tell him I'll see him tonight and I love him." Hunter said getting up from his chair, heading to the kitchen. He headed towards the fridge, but noticed the curtains were open. They are never open in the morning. He realized what is going on, he gasped and hit the floor, gunshots sprayed over the counter, he took refuge right up against it as bullets fly through the window and scream over, just inches from Hunters head. The bullets stopped, tires screetch away. Clamenza, and three other guards come running from the office. Hunter was terrified.

"were you hit??" Clamenza screamed. Hunter couldn't speak a word, his eyes were wide with fear, his hands were on his head.
Tom pulled Hunter up, Hunter grabbed Tom in fear. "it's alright kid. I got you.... I got you..." Tom said trying to calm Hunter down.
"I.... I don't feel safe anymore. I... I.. I... Want s-s-some people with me when I go see Aiden. Ok?" Hunter said

"don't worry Hunter, we will keep you safe. We have a few people coming over from the casino to protect you." Tom said. Tom was a father figure to Hunter after his old man died.
"I want to see Aiden now." Hunter stuttered in fear. They left the house and headed to the Caddilac Escalade. Thecar pulled out of the driveway and headed towards Aidens house on 112th street in east LA, Hells Angels turf. The car turned onto 112th street and slowed down to 25 mph.

"uh... Why are we going so slow?" Hunter asked.
"it's alright, the car is bulletproof." said one of the bodyguards.

They pulled up to Aidens house and hunter got out of the car.

Hunter knocked on the door, Aiden answered. Hunter hugged him, kissed the back of his neck and said: "I love you, I love you so much!"
