*RING RING*

Nikolai groaned in annoyance. Stupid phone. Ruining the one moment of peace he's had all day long. He put the phone to his ear

"What."

"One of the prisoners is being a real dick." came a man's voice over the phone "She's way to tough awake- and we haven't been able to knock the girl out." 

"And your calling me because...?"

"Well one because that meeting is scheduled... and second because of this idiot." 

"Fine."

Nikolai sighed. He gently placed Adam back down on the floor and walked towards Mick's room only to find Mick laughing as Asriel kept on jumping and trying to lick his face. Nikolai looked at the scene for a moment.

"Alright Asriel let the man breathe-"

Upon hearing Nikolai's voice Asriel jumped off Mick and tried to tackle Nikolai to the ground. Mick burst out laughing until he saw Nikolai giving him a stern look. 

"Were going to need you."

"Need me? For what...?"

"There's a girl whose prisoner. She won't stop giving my men a hard time. Pretty sure she kicked a few of them in the dick and now their being idiots and won't give knock her out."

"And you need me because...."

"Because you are our drug man. Meaning your going to put her to sleep." 

"Ah..."

"After that were going to be attending a meeting. A very long meeting."

"Alright..."

"It's your first day on the job. Do not disapoint me." 

Nikolai walked out of the room and towards the elevator. When the elevator door's opened, Mick appeared and got in beside Nikolai. 

"So... you want me to drug her?"

"Exactly."

"And your going to keep this women as a prisoner?"

"Obviously." Nikolai then paused seeing a look on Mick's face "I'm not going to do anything wierd towards her. I'm not one of those kinds of mafia bosses."

"Oh good... I just wanted to make sure." Mick rubbed the back of his neck "Sorry if I uh- offended you..."

"Not at all."

Mick just nodded in response. Once the elavator stopped Niklai led Mick back to the room the two had gone in earlier. 

"Go on then. Impress me." 

Mick nodded and walked over to the table. Nikolai watched. Mick was fast- he seemed to know everything- which was good that meant Nikolai didn't have to have anybody teach the man anything. The longer he watched Mick work the more impressed he became. 

"Done." Mick held a bottle in his hands 

"This will work?"

"Of course it will. I am a drug expert after all." 

"Let's see if your right." 

Nikolai began walking through the halls. He couldn't help but notice how Mick seemed to have this proud look on his face. 

"Your quite proud for someone who was supposed to be retiring from the drug dealing business." 

"Yeah well... I guess I haven't lost my touch" Mick chuckled "I guess my skills will stick with me... for awhile..."

"Why did you want to retire?"

"Dunno... I guess I hated feeling like a criminal? I also wanted to be a better person"

"And your other... profession?"

"Ah well... that one." Mick mumbled "I really wanted relationships you know- that's why I decided why not be a sugar daddy? Except the fact that I got tired of people only wanting me for money. And then... there was this- girl. She- she did some things to me that I'm not gonna mention- and I realized that if I kept up with all that- I would keep meeting selfish people... and horrible people."

"Makes sense."

Finally the two reach the room where the women is being held captive. Nikolai walks in- he doesn't want to have to deal with an annoying prisoner. The minute Nikolai lays eyes upon the prisoner he can feel Mick stiffen beside him. In fact the man looks like he's trying his best not to look scared. 

"Mick."

"Yes?"

"What's wrong?" Nikolai normally wouldn't ask but... something seemed off 

"She- she's the one who... she-" Mick looked like he couldn't get his words out. "She-"

Nikolai studied Mick's face. Something was wrong. And it was clearly not nerves. The more Nikolai thought about it the more he decided to do something he had never done before. Listen to a new recruits problems. Nikolai took Mick's arm and dragged the man out of the room and towards a private guest room that was currently being cleaned for the person who stayed in there. 

"Out." 

The maids nodded their heads and got out of the guest room. Nikolai sat Mick down on the bed and then sat next to him. 

"Normally I wouldn't give a damn about my new recruits and their past problems... but... you look like your terrified of her. So... in case she's dangerous... I need to know what happened."

Mick didn't say a word. Nikolai sighed. 

"If you can... tell me that is. Or you don't have to..." Nikolai muttered 

"No... no- I'll tell you... I- I think I need to say it... or have someone listen to me."

"Alright. Whenever your ready... you may begin." 

Nikolai watched as Mick took a deep breath before he began to speak...
