Night time began to settle in. An orange Dodge Challenger R/T stops in front of an abandoned building at the outskirts of Crown City. Viktor gets out of the car as he slams the door shut and heads to the trunk, which he opens up, pulling outside a man, all blindfolded and tied up. After closing the trunk, Viktor gets inside the building, unties the man, puts him on a chair and ties him up again. The man didn't put up a fight at all because Viktor sedated him. By Viktor's watch he should have waken up by now. The man slowly starts to wake up as Viktor pulled the blindfold from his eyes. [b]"Wake up sleeping beauty!"[/b] Said Viktor slapping the man on the face once. [b]"What? Who are you? Where am I?"[/b] Asked the man, scared as he looked around him and then at Viktor, who was sitting on another chair with his arms crossed. [b]"Does it really matter? What matters is that tonight you're going to die. Now don't get me wrong, it's nothing personal...just business. Somebody hired me to kill you. But he wants me to torture you first and record the whole thing so he can see it. That's what that camera is for."[/b] Said Viktor as he got up from the chair and started walking around as he was talking. The tied up man looks down for a second then back at Viktor. [b]"I bet this is Art's work isn't it? He's the one that hired you to do this right? I always knew he wanted the company for himself but I never imagined he'll go this far."[/b] Said the man with a rather upset tone at Viktor, who smiled and started clapping his hands. [b]"Congratulations Frank. You don't mind if I call you Frank right? Indeed that is the answer to the secret question. I assume you deserve to know since you're gonna die anyway. Yes! You business partner payed me 15.000 $ to get rid of you. Now I don't know what kind of problems you two have with each other, but from what I noticed...he clearly hates you! But whatever. It's not any of my business so I don't wanna know. Let's get this show on the road."[/b] Said Viktor, pulling out his Gerber Mark 2 knife and heading towards the camera and starting to record everything. [b]"Wait a second, before you go any further...I got a proposition for you. I'll give you double, hell even triple if you let me go."[/b] Said the man in a last effort to save his own life. [b]"Really? You're going to give me all that money just so I can let you go?"[/b] Said Viktor with a surprised look on his face as he headed to the camera and closed it. [b]"And what about your business partner? He's expecting me to torture and kill you!"[/b] Continued Viktor. [b]"Do whatever you want with him. Kill him, beat him into a coma, whatever, just make sure he dosen't bother me anymore. All I want is to run that company in peace and right now, i'm tired of his threats and demands."[/b] Said the man with a fast paced tone as sweat was coming down his forehead. [b]"You know what Mr. Jones? I can be many things, but never a backstabber. So I think you've found the wrong person to make deals like that with. On the other hand, your proposition is very tempting, and hard to ignore."[/b] Said Viktor as he headed towards the man and cut with his knife the ropes that tied him. The man rised from the chair relieved and surprised at the same time. Both he and Viktor were looking at each other, both waiting the other one's move. [b]"I think I will hate myself for a while but like all things, it will pass. Now get in the car, in the back seat and stay there. I'll finish this conflict between you and him tonight."[/b] Said the man as both he and Viktor got inside the Challenger, with Viktor starting the car and heading back into the city. As he was driving he pulled out his cell phone and called Art. [b]"Mr. Tennison, this is Viktor Rebrov. I have your nice little torture tape right here. Oh and uhhh, your partner Frank Jones is dead. Where do we meet so we can finish this deal?"[/b] Asked Viktor waiting for a response as he steered to the right. [b]"Yes. I know where it is. I'm heading there right now."[/b] Said Viktor closing his cellphone and putting it back in the pocket. [b]"It seems you're in luck. Art wants me to meet him right now in the parking lot of the Aces and Eights night club."[/b] Said Viktor looking in the rear view mirror at the man who was a mix of feelings right now and didn't know how to react. He just took a deep breath and made himself more comfortable.
