In the last 3 years a certian American Gangster was taking over, Al Capone. The Macenie family were no Gangsters, honest barbers. This night was diffrent. Earlo Macenie was a small 9 year old kid, exposed brutalily to the ways of ilfe and death, he saw his future in his fathers buisness, a barber. Tehy were dining at a some downtown restraunt, that was exactly what it was called. it was jammed packed to night, but the scarest thing were some gangsters, they were over in the corner, laughing and smoking, swearing out aloud. Earlo Couldnt keeps his eyes off them, such freedom, were the Capones Gang, or a diffrent one? Earlo politely ate his dinner, when his father Nearamo noticed his attention gone,
"What is wrong Earlo?" Nearamo asked,
"Nothing Father, just..." said Earlo, "Those Gangsters"
The father held his breath,
"Come outside son" Nearamo ordered, Earlo followed his command and went outside, his father following close behind, when outside nearamo slammed the door,
"Do not speak of such things son, to live in this city, you need the guts, but the gang could easily dust you off" said the father, Earlo looked shocked,
"Do not worry, Death is just another path, it has to be taken some time" continued the Father, then out of the cold night air 2 man pushed past them,
"Lets go inside Father, It is cold out here"
Earlo and his father walked inside, and sat down at the table, Earlos mother looked at Earlos Father in a knowing way.
"I'm hungry" whined one of the Macenie Familys many sons,
"Do not worry Makerie, we wil get-" the Nearamos voice was cut off by 5 loud gunshots, the men who had pushed past Earlo and his father had two guns drawed, and were shooting the gang members at the table, Earlo let out an gasp, the place was silent. The men lowered his gun and muttered something to his partner, then said out aloud,
"This is Capones buisness, do not interfere, because your road will be taken"
Someone stood up in the restraaunt,
"Why did you do that!? I am police and I will stop you!" the wife let out a gasp, one gangster looked over
"Follow me" he said quietly,
"No!"
"Yoour road has been chosen"
The gangster drew a gun and shot the policemen, he then walked out, his partner following him, but next to the counter he threw some money at the Owner,
"Sorry for the trouble" said the gangster,
Earlo sat in shocked silence, three people were just shot in front of his eyes, and something had clicked in his mind,
The father looked back at his family,
"Forget about it, you should not have seen that!" he said angryily,
Earlo spoke out,
'Father, it is death, it shall happen one time" Earlos one intention was to become a Gangster. The Father looked shocked, then the look faded,
"One time boy, I knew you would realise death, but not so soon"

Earlo was now 17 years of age, the family had moved to New York some years earlier, 1928, but Al Capone was caught, he still dreamed of being a gangster, but hisdreams were given. His Father had revealed one thing on his 16th birthday, they were no honest barbers, thwy ran an Gang, they were one of the most powerful. He had not let Earlo join, but Earlo threatened to joi another familys gang. The barber shop was a base, prisoners were brought there, to be dealt with. Earlo had joined and was now in the inner circle of the Familys buisness, he ran jobs for his Father. Earlo was on another mission, kill off a certian Citizen, and he would be given money, this citizen was giving info to toher gangs. Earlo was waiting in the citzens Hotel lobby. The citizen checked in, Earlo took the stairs, he could hear the lift going next to him, but he kept running,faster. He reached there first, the Citizen walked out of the lift, opened the door and... and blaring sound came from the Broom Cupboard, holes ripping threw them, the men was dead before he hit the ground. Everuyone raced out of there places, but all they could see was the hem of a cloak, one had enough courage to race him. He could hear gunshots in the lobby, the gunshots kept going, he finnal got there. The person at the counter was hiding with an gun and trying to shoot the Gangster, the gangster had an rifle and was trying to shoot him. Finnaly, bullets found there mark and the Lobbymen went down, holes were all over the place,
"Wait you vile scum!" he yelled, Earlo turned around,
"Leave me alone and your road will be ,longer" Earlo said calmy,
"What sort of scum hides in broom Cupboards and shoots people in the back?!" he yelled
"I tried to widen your path" said Earlo,
"Whats this Path nonsense, its probaly going to you-" a bullet between the eyes was the last thing he felt. Earlos job was done,I'll update later,
