The bomb blast left the glasshouse of the Gambinos shattered. Shards of sharp glass were scattered across the floor in such a way that if one did not get hurt by the explosion, they would indeed have gotten hurt from the glass lying everywhere across the floor.The remains of Atorro's stunt double that had not been blown to pieces were hanging across the hall in grotesque display."Father," a voice screamed out, tired and weary. There was immense fear in it. It was from Costa, who had just woken up, with blood on his body and pain shooting up from his left arm to his head.He looked around and saw Lorenzo already up. He was limping. There was a large spike of glass on his legs."Are you okay, Lorenzo?" He asked, although already seeing that he was not quite okay. He just wanted to hear an assurance."Don't worry about me," Lorenzo said, flashing a grin and his thumb up as if to say he was okay. Even though it was clearly visible to anyone who had the eyes to see that he was clearly n

"What happened?" Jenny asked with breathless eagerness when she saw Isaiah come out of the door. Isaiah had a mysterious smile on. "Nothing," he said. "We just talked, actually.""Just talked?" Godfrey asked, full of surprise. "From the looks of everything, I thought he wanted to chew you raw and spit you into the toilet."Isaiah chuckled. "He could not possibly do that. I just had to let him know that if he decides to fail any one of us, it would be on his resume and he might as well just appear as a bad lecturer.""And you think that would stop him from doing so?" Jenny asked."Yeah. Professor Strathmore cares extremely about his reputation. If he did not, he wouldn't have spent a lot of money trying to cover up his past failures."Jenny did not know quite well what Isaiah was talking about, as she was not in class on the day Isaiah revealed to everyone that Professor Strathmore once had a consulting firm that crashed, that the man had a reputation for being a stellar consultan

"Are you really sure about this?" Jenny asked, looking up to Isaiah."Yeah," he said. "The professor isn't that scary. "Then I'll go with you," Jenny said. Isaiah thought of protesting but decided against it. If the man was not as scary as everyone was thinking he was, it made quite a lot of sense to let Jenny go with him."Okay," he said finally, after giving it much heavy thought."Tch!" Walter hissed.Isaiah turned to him. "Is there something you really want to say, Walter? Spit it out; don't let it choke you out. Come on.""I've made up my mind to keep comments to myself, however they are," Walter replied, a cheeky smile on his lips. "It serves me better. Until the end, when I know what you really are, Isaiah. As for now, I am only going to keep watch.""Whatever it is you get, please do tell me." Isaiah retorted, "Do tell me." "I am curious. I like knowing things about myself that I did not know before.""Tch... You'll see. It might shock you what I will find about you, but we'

Isaiah stared at Godfrey for a while. He wasn't particularly thinking of anything but he tried to give the impression that he was.Godfrey, who until recently had been such a vehement critic and opponent of Isaiah, felt tremendous fear for what he could not hear in Isaiah's thoughts."Look, I know I have always joined the class in bullying you, but I promise you, I am no longer that kind of person. I've changed. I think if there's anyone to respect in this class, it should be you and not Walter. Walter just throws money around and expects to be taken seriously because of it."Jenny rolled her eyes at this. How convenient, she thought, that this was happening at almost the same time Isaiah was beginning to achieve some sort of clout for himself. She wanted Isaiah to not consider Godfrey with any great seriousness, and if he could, he should just dismiss him after the assignment had been submitted."Okay, now," Isaiah said, finally, "I don't really care, but hopefully you stick with y

The classroom was a microcosm of much activity, or inactivity, depending in part on what point of view they were looking from. Some students had already figured out what to do, while the others had not quite. While many were hunched over their desks, working on their paper, some lay back on their chairs, depressed and hopeless."What are we even supposed to do?" One of the students cried out, holding his hair. He had already seen failure in sight. The only reassurance he had was that if he were to fail, he had Isaiah to blame."I'll tell you what to do for a price?" Someone said. Everyone could recognize this voice. It annoyed them like the buzzing of a fly across one's ears."What?" A student asked, suddenly annoyed at who was speaking. "Why should we pay you money for anything? You're the one who brought this nonsense upon us, Isaiah. By right, you're supposed to pay us, you asshole."The rest of the students cheered in unison."Well, suit yourselves if you want to fake it," Isai

A man sat on a car. He wore a large trench coat. From his mouth puffed out large smokes, and he drew in and out on a cigar. He seemed to be listening to something. He wore large headphones. His eyes were focused ahead of him as he continued to suck in and out the smoke of the cigar."What do we have here?" He said as there seemed to be an explosion from the other side of his headphone. "Rest in peace, Martins. I promise that your family will eat well from your sacrifice. You have served me well, and it will not be in vain."He removed the headphone from around his head, and it became quite clear that the man was actually Atorro. He had a nasty smile cut across his face."Now I just have to hope that the bomb killed everyone in that pesky family," he mused. "That would be good. I can now rule this city in peace." He laughed briefly afterwards before settling into his car, confident that he had infact done away with many of his rivals. He drove slowly, seeking to get some wind from t
