Re: Dead as a doornail, pity, he really was quite nice.

((GTG_ I'll be back in a bit))

[bookcrazI]

Lovely...

[Ziva :)]

((I'm back! How do I jump in?))

[bookcrazI]

Okay... ahem well
My charrie is at the gambling tables at the Spade's club trying to find a way to talk to the head Spade, she being the Head heart. One of Charlie's charries is sitting at the bar and the other is in a secret room in the back of a club seeing as he is the Head Spade.
Your options of jumping are:
1) Partroll around as a guard but seemingly a waitress
2) Go talk to Charlie's charrie at the bar
3) Talk to my charrie at the tables by reconising her a one of the hearts (no one knows she's the head of the Heart aside from Charlie's charrie at the bar)
4) Be in the band
5) be a car dealer
6)... oh what am I kidding, you are very creative and I am lazy..... make something up if you don't like any of these...

[Ziva :)]

((Thanks for the suggestions ))

Timber polished a glass in the typical way of bartenders, yet she was no such thing. While seeming to wait for a customer she was, in reality, scanning the rrom for potential threats. This was a great job; she worked the hours her boss usually came in, and provided him extra support.
Suddenly, her eyes caught an unfarmiliar face.
"Hey," She said to a man sitting at the bar, nodding in the direction of the woman who had just walked in," D'ya know who that is?"

[Charlie]

Wait I had the club as neutral territory hence the name the four aces.

[bookcrazI]

Oh, it still can have people making sure their leader are safe. And Ziva your post is great I just think that she wouldn't know that my charrie is not know to be the leader of the hearts, she just got the position.

[Ziva :)]

((Okay, I'll fix it ))

[bookcrazI]

Sienna: I collected my winnings and headed to the bar for a drink. "A water please." I called out to the bar tender.

[Ziva :)]

The bar tender raised an eyebrow skeptically, but Timber stored the info for later. This was a girl after her own heart.
"Will that be all for now?" she asked as she set the glass down.

[Charlie]

The man looked up and saw the leader of he hearts. "yeah, she's a down right cheat." His Jersey accent floated over the noise of the cub. Not to mention he made the comment loud enough for the girl to here. "Can I get a refill?"

[Ziva :)]

Timber placed another class in front of him, and muttered, "Noted,"
The bar was strict on cheaters, so it would seem odd if she didn't show interest on the subject.

[Charlie]

"Not at cards." he sighed some peolle just didn't understand his hidden language they just didn't understand what he meant. He took a sip of burbon. He leaned in "She's not the best when it comes to business if ya know what I mean." he knew most members of both gangs they couldn't hide it from him. As a hitman he made that his job when he first got here.

[Ziva :)]

"What kind of buisness?" she asked, one eyebrow raised. Once her interest was raised, Timber's curiosity was unsatiable. What kind of position was that woman in to be doing business? How could it affect the Spade's position?-her own?

[Charlie]

He took a puff of his cigar and blew it in the girls face. "My business." he smirked. If she didn't understand she might never understand he was pretty well known and considering Luke's offer she really should know him.

[Ziva :)]

Finally, Timber's attention turned to the man in front of her, her nose wrinkling in discust at the smell of the smoke. How could she have forgoten? This must be the hitman.
She nodded in understanding.
"Any chance I can pursuade you to tell me what she wanted?"

[Charlie]

"Sorry." he said taking a sip of the bourbon. "My business is strictly between me and my clients. Now if you ask my clients about my business that's a different matter." he smirked, "Of course she isn't a client yet, now her father was a client who always knew my rates." he leaned back. Taking another puff of his cigarette, "Trying to change my rates is the fastest way to loose the best business."

[Ziva :)]

She shrugged slightly- it was worth a try.
"That makes sence. There's a reason one has to pay extra for the best," Timber said complacently, "Who was her father?"

[Charlie]

"You know him, he wasnt the best of friends with Luke." he sipped his bourbon finishing the drink he signaled for another, "If ya know what I mean." he smirked.
Three drinks was his limit plus he still had to sober up.

[Ziva :)]

This guy seemed to love talking in riddles. Luke had a lot of enemies... but the Hearts were his sworn adveraries. Casella must be talking about old man Heart himself- which made this woman the Heart leader.
Timber glanced at her again after refilling the man's drink.

[bookcrazI]

Sienna: I took a sip of water and sighed, tonight was going well money wise I guess. Luck had nothing to do with it, well some of it, lady luck usually shied away from me but I had the joker on my side, the trickster too.
I looked around and sighed.
"Where's Luke." I asked loudly.

[Charlie]

About half the members of the club turned there heads, and everything became silent. Tony sipped his bourbon, the new Hearts leader, had done it. She had done it, why ask for something like that so loudly. She obviously in his opinion didn't know how to be coy. Of course this was Mississippi and not Chicago or New York. The women down south were definitely different.

[bookcrazI]

Sienna: I raised my eyebrows and tapped my foot. " Oh come on, at least one of you can tell me where he is. Important business..." I said mumbling the end. I had really stuck a sword in it's head this time, as papa used to say.

[Charlie]

The spades in the club just shook their heads. They said no word about the subject. The hearts just looked at her with wide eyes.
One thing should be known about Luke, don't call him Luke, unless you are his wife, or a certain hitman. You call him Terentino, or The Spade. His name was like taboo or something.
The silence settled over the club, for the live music had stopped too.

[bookcrazI]

Sienna: I sighed and sat back in my chair near the bar, a bold move I guess but maybe Luke would respond. He knew my father and barely knew me but still, common curtesy would be to appear when called upon. I smiled into my water, who did I think I was? Pa? I really knew very little about actuall field work, only the office work was in my knowledge.

[Charlie]

Tony started to slowly laugh. And soon their was noise in the pub again. Tony walked over to Sienna, "You really don't know anything do ya." And with that he disappeared amongst the tables, and sat down at one that was surrounded by smoke. He was playing black jack, a game he was particularly skilled at.
A man went to the back room, and told Luke what had happened. He wasn't disappointed to say the least, but he was a bit angry. You don't just go into a club and shout his name, be it The Four Aces or not.
He sent his wife to go fetch the girl.
Soon after a woman in a slick red flapper dress, with a brunette wavy bob, with a head band and white feather was out about in the club. Men gave her looks, but the tan flat chested Celeste was married, and the rock on her finger proved it. The men just got to look at the beauty from afar.
She walked up to Sienna, "No funny games, when you talk to him. And for future reference don't call him Luke. Three people had that privilege. One is dead, and you have yet to gain it." She lead Sienna to the back room, and slipped in, waiting for Sienna to follow.
Luke had his cowboy hat in front of him on a card table. He looked up at the young leader with a smirk.
