WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS….pt. Uno
The cool desert night glows in a shower of neon colors. It’s a typical evening in Sin City, Las Vega, Nevada USA. At the Bellagio hotel & casino a stretch Rolls Royce makes it’s final stop of the night at the front entrance. The chauffer hops out and hastily opens the passenger door. The gorgeous supermodels Adrianna & Alessandra graciously step out to a bombardment of camera flashes. The ladies step aside to reveal the true star of tonight’s show, Zebediah Killgrave. After a few photographs, Killgrave becomes annoyed and the photographers automatically start turning their cameras on each other. The cameras click away like rapid machinegun fire as The Purple Man with his ladies in each arm stroll into the casino. They pause for a second and Killgrave addresses the paparazzi.
“Ladies & gentlemen of the press… be so kind and delete the photos you just took of me and my guests. Better yet, just smash those silly little irritating cameras and get a real job.”
Zebediah and his escorts giggle at the sound of expensive photography equipment crashing onto the pavement. The casino’s host greets the Purple Man’s entourage as they make their entrance.
“Good evening sir, how may I assist you tonight?”
“We have been painting the town red my dear man, and we saved the best for last! Show me to your finest poker table…I’m feelin’ lucky tonight!”
While in Miami, the high noon sun imposes it’s intense heat on the bustling citizens. Two detectives find sanctuary inside a well air-conditioned café. The young Hispanic Denny Gutierrez and his sleek partner Mitsu Choi order up a round of mojitos. Denny’s nervous twitching shoulder gives him away as he inspects each person in the cozy diner.
“Relax Gutierrez, you won’t find them in here. They are long gone from the area.”
Mitsu’s voice is soothing with a hint of sarcasm that makes the inexperienced detective feel even more uncomfortable. He’s not used to opening up to people let alone fellow workers. His life has always been about keeping secrets and not trusting anyone no matter how friendly they may seem.
“I’m relaxed Choi, let’s just get down to business. You said you have a plan…so what is it?”
The slender Asian lass sinks into her 1950’s retro chair and takes a long slow sip of her thirst quenching mojito. Denny can’t resist watching as beads of sweat cascade down her long elegant neck. Her parched lips cling on to the glass rim as the last drop of liquor drips off her chin. Her feline eyes roll down towards his direction as she smiles with delight. As her ruby lips part, a hidden mint leaf is exposed. Her perfect ivory teeth gripping the herb ever so gentle.
“My, my, you are in such a rush. Slow and steady wins the race, Denny boy.”
Suddenly she snaps out of her mojito euphoria and addresses her partner professionally.
“Let’s get one thing straight Senor Gutierrez, if we are going to work together, then we are going to set some rules for both of us to abide by.
Rule #1. I do not like to be rushed.
#2. As of right now we are on first name basis only.
#3. We catch the bad guys by being calm, collective and smart….NOT nervous, irrational and stupid.”
Denny was caught off guard by Mitsu’s remarks. He knew he had pushed the wrong button so he just nodded in agreement. This was a side of his partner he had never seen before. She ordered up two more drinks and grabbed Gutierrez’s necktie. Gentle she pulled him across the table and whispered in his ear.
“I gave up smoking….so I need a new vice. You and I are going to become very close friends, because I don’t work with strangers.”
The statement was sealed with a tender nibble on his earlobe. She sank back into her chair as the drinks were being served always keeping her eyes locked on his every move. She noticed the twitching of the shoulder had but disappeared and she blew him a seductive kiss.
There was a lengthy pause of silence as they enjoyed their afternoon together then Mitsu was ready for business.
“There is a young lady I found who claims to be able to find and take down our mysterious playboy. And she wants nothing in return except to expose him for what he is.”
Denny perks up in his chair.
“And what exactly is he?
Mitsu takes another sip before answering.
“Really Denny, ladies do not repeat such words.”
