The scene was becoming too uncomfortable for Leo.

"Hey!" He yelled and they all went quiet.

"Why don't we handle to day like mature folks?" He asked them all.

It was true. They were behaving like animals and that way, nothing would be achieved.

"Why do journalists like to behave this way?!" He asked himself. "Maybe it is just the professions" he told himself.

The men waited for over thirty minutes for Charlie to be out. He was not coming out and this made them tired of waiting. "Are we sure he is in there?" One of them asked. "He is. " Capone said. "If he wasn't, the room would have not been locked." He added."What if he locked it from the outside and went out?" Another of the men asked him. "His travel things are here. " He said to them.

"Since they are close together, I can take all of them at once." He said. It was a good plan to execute, but talk was cheap. He was not an expert in using guns.

He said to her as he slapped her again. "She held her cheek firm. "What was that for?!" She asked out loud, almost crying. "You will know when I am done with you!" He said in a very angry tone.

That place is my disposal spot and it is a secret, even to my men. I can not let anyone find it." He said to the prince. The prince was disappointed. "Don't you have at least a picture of his full body after death?" He asked Capone. "I do not, my prince," Capone responded. "You should have saved something to show me as proof."

    Capone stared at the bodies in Charlie's apartment for a while. He wondered how to clear them out. There were three dead bodies and he was just one person. He thought about calling his men to come and aid him, but he settled for not calling them at all. "If I do, they will figure I did not kill the target when they do not see him." He thought to himself. "And words could get out to Prince Colton. I can not have that happening." He also thought. He decided to do it himself, but he also had to be smart about it. He went out and looked through the window of the apartment. The window was facing the back of the building. He observed the scene and noticed it was a dead part of the street. No one ever got into it. He then had an idea. He quickly went out and ran into his car. He brought out bags and tapes. They were meant to be used to wrap Charlie after looking at him and taken away, but since things took a dramatic turn, they would now be used for another purpose. To wap his men

Charlie said, trying as much as possible to remain unknown. His wife soon felt there was a problem. She stood up and turned to her husband. "Honey. What is the matter?" She asked her husband. "Nothing. I am just thinking I know this guy and trying to figure out where we last saw each other." He said to his wife. He very well knew he saw Charlie somewhere and it was not for a good reason, that was why he was interested. "Please can I just have a glimpse of your face without the glasses?" He said to Charlie. Charlie knew now and here that this man was not playing. He was kin on knowing who he was. Charlie knew that to escape this, he had to pull a new stunt. "Why are you harassing me?!" Charlie said to him rudely. "Do you think I stole something?" Charlie asked, still maintaining a rude demeanor. "That is n

    "Well, I can not just leave like that. You have to give me something. And I have to clean this mess up."Capone said, pointing at his dead men. "I have two hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash," Charlie said. "If that will do." He asked Capone. "Yes. " Capone said. "It sure will. " He added to Charlie. Charlie then walked to his bag and took out money wrapped in a paper bag. He gave the money to Capone. "Here it is," he said to Capone and he gave the money out.

"I can't. " Capone said. "You know, I am just like you, I have failed at work before. I always deliver." He added. Charlie's heart was now racing. He knew he was. getting out of there, so he wanted to pull the trigger. Capone knew when someone wanted to pull the trigger. Anytime someone wanted to pull the trigger especially to kill another person, they always experienced an involuntary rise in emotion. It was something that learning to control took years. When he saw Charlie being that way, he knew that Charlie wanted to pull the trigger. "Do not do it. " He said to Charlie. "I know you want to, but if you do, you are a dead man already," Capone added.
