We got near the truck when Reaper yelled, "Johnny boy! Guess what?"

"What?" He yelled back, looking in our direction.

"We got a Pretty Boy pet! Wanna make a bet? I bet a slice of pizza he only lives two days! No more!" She yells laughing.

Mark scowls and his brown eyes that reminded me of his father, the Mayor, narrowed, "I'm only worth one slice of pizza?"

I smile at Reaper who was tickling Johnny, "To us one slice of pizza is worth the world, now come on we don't have all day." I say as I start walking away from him.

Reaper sees me coming and jumps back onto the bed of the truck, holding out her hand to Mark, "Grab on, Pretty Boy, I'll pull you up."

"What!" He screams, his face masking to one of horror. I snort and shut Johnny's door. "I'm not getting on that thing."

Frowning I growl, "Did you just insult my truck?" This is the last piece I have of my father, I know he did not just insult it.

Reaper sighs, "Ugh come on Pretty Boy you already pissed Griffin off just get in the damn truck."

He turns back to Reaper who still had her hand out to him, "No."

I growled again, this boy was majorly pissing me off, I wrapped my arms around him and picked him up, he started to yell at me but I just threw him onto the bed of the truck. I stomped over to the driver's side and got in. Starting up the truck I hear Reaper laugh at the boys pain.

"Ya' better hold on Pretty Boy 'cause if ya' fall I'm going to catch ya' with my scythe." I hear him gulp and her laugh.

Johnny yelled back, "She's not kidding you know." I smile and drive off, I heard the boy started screaming and Reaper laughing like she was insane. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad, I thought.

~~~~~

I pulled up in front of a dark alley between an old chinese restaurant and a rundown apartment building. Mark was still screaming so Reaper slapped him upside the head.

"Shut the hell up." She told him. He shut up. "Griffin why we at Serpent's alley?"

"Because this next few missions the boss has for us, has Serpent in them." I tell her as I get out of the truck.

"Serpent is joining us?" Johnny asked lighting up, remembering to use her code name because of the guest.

"I guess." Reaper mumbles. Her and Serpent had a kind of love hate relationship, but it was more hate than love.

I sigh and roll my eyes as I walk to the mouth of the alley, "Serpent! Get your lazy ass over here so we can go!"

I hear the roar of a motorcycle as its lights blind me for a second. She pulled up in front of me sitting on a red motorcycle that had a purple snake painted on it, her dark pink dyed hair was up in a bun. A purple snake was tattooed on both of her arms and she wore purple shades that covered her sea blue eyes.

"Hey Griffin," She smiled then turned to Reaper who was now standing next to me, "Reaper." She said coldly.

"Serpent." Reaper said just as coldly.

I stepped in between them before they could start fighting, again, "Serpent you might as well ride with us, boss said you will be hanging with us for a while."

She sighed, getting off her bike to push it back into the alley, "Fine but I'm not sitting next to Reaper." She said glaring at said girl.

I rub my temple, "Fine," I walk over to Johnny, "Johnny you wanna sit in the back with Serpent?"

"Sure!" He said excitedly, I had never let him sit in back before.

I turn back to Serpent as Reaper helps Johnny into the bed of the truck, "You better not let him fall off or it's your head I'll have next." I threaten.

She nods, "I'm not gonna let your brother fall off Griffin, have a little faith in me," Reaper snorts at that. Serpent climbs in back with the two boys and looks oddly at Mark, "Who the hell are you?"

He tries to glare at her but it fails epically, "I'm Mark Cammi the Mayor's son."

She looks at him confused, "The slums ain't got no Mayor kid."

"Serpent, the Mayor of the capital, me and Reaper a job from the boss to keep him around and watch him," I tell her. She nods, so me and Reaper get in front, "Hold on!" I shout back at them and drive off with the sound of Mark screaming once again and everyone else laughing. I smiled into the review.
