*BASH*
I watch one of my bouncers slam his head into the table. As he brings his head back up his nose is bleeding and forehead already starting to bruise, this just adding to the black eye and assortments of other injuries on this man’s body.
“Goddamnit Phil, I told you once before if you ever came back I would kill you, so Why THe FUCK DID YOU COME BACK!”
I try to be calm but my anger gets the better of me I hate it when someone doesn't listen to what I say.
“Listen Nicholas I'm sorry alright, I didn't mean to come here I promise. I was brought here with my wife, she wouldn't go anywhere else or take no for an answer, I swear. I didn't bring any of my gear. You know I would never go back to the same place, please listen man!”
He starts to plead and beg but they’re all the same, thinking I'm stupid.
“Listen Phil I have only 3 things left to say to you. 1. I know you're skilled enough to not use gear. 2. I said I would kill you if you ever came back and I always do what I say I will do. 3. You better say your goodbyes right now.”
“No, No, NO. Please Nicholas I beg you don't kill me, please, please!”
I look towards little Tim, nod my head and start walking away.
“Oh yeah Phil, never call me man, if you do once more I will kill you in your next life as well.”

Greed is rampant and money is flowing, oh how I love too see the possible gain but loss on all those foolish peoples faces.
Oh, how I love making money and watching others lose their own.
I couldn't help myself and smiled, no I didn't just smile, I laughed. I believe today is going to be a great day!
“Hahahah”
“Sir, can you please stop laughing so manically, you're scaring the guests.”
I only notice one of my employees after she spoke up.
“I'm sorry Jennifer just enjoying myself, and I'm sorry too anyone who was bothered. A free game on me.”
As I apologize I hear the small group of people near by cheer. It's ok it isn't that expensive and it's doubtful they would win anything anyways. Poor fellas.
As I walk to my office I look around and keep my eye out for any influential people or my right hand man.
I don't necessarily need to meet anyone but new connections are new connections.
For my assistant I must discuss a more important matter. It's not important right now but in a few weeks it may be very serious.
The announcement for the release of the newest and greatest VR known to man.
Welcome Online, oh what a wonderful idea and game it will be. I can't wait to play.
I couldn't help myself and I start to chuckle again for all the possibilities that will be apparent very soon.
