I thought it would be cool, to have like, a section, where we could be our characters, and hang out, and create drama.... I'll start:

"She walked down the street, confident, but aloof, mightily, though as if on a cloud. She sat on a solitary park bench, in her red silk dress, and stiletto heels, when....

Sunny. A big, warm smile appears across Ben's face, and says, "Ahhhhh, yes, I wasn't able to see who it was so far away but it is good to see that it is my other half, or should I say...better half" Sunny smiles, saying, "Better half, honey" , as she pats his arm.

Ben begins, "Ok, folks, now the time has come for me to tell you about the Shady siblings....."

As he is talking, someone could be heard hollering down the walk, "HOLD UP!! WAIT FOR ME!! HEY!!"

Makensie takes a drag off her cigarette, and says to Bad, and Lucian, "Well would you look at that? Look who decided to show up! None other than......"

Charlie Cain in his trademarked hat and coat smoking his unfiltered lucky strike cigarette.

"Its been awhile Makensie who are your friends. " As I look at the two men who are with you and slowly smile. I take another drag on my cigarette and ask "So how have you all been?"

Makensie smiles at Charlie and his trademarked outfit. "Everyone's been dandy, Charlie" she says. "Ben here's just talking about Shady's third sibling."

Charlie taps off another drag. "Really? Well, let me in on your conversation. I'm intrigued."

Ben smiles. "Well, should I start our story or is someone else going to drop in?"

Crunchpatty, Lucian, BadAss, Makensie, Charlie, and Sunny all laugh. "It's possible," Sunny replies. "I haven't seen such a stranger group of people than today!"

Ben chuckles. "You're forgetting Amsterdam, honey," he says. Sunny smiles. "Amsterdam... how could I forget those giant clogs? OK, so the meetup in Amsterdam was stranger than this unexpected meetup in the park. You're right, honey."

Ben sighs. "What a bizarre day it has been. Alright, it's time to start my tale. As we all know, Shady is the man in the bar who wipes out false accusations in return for money. His sister, Shadette, is one of Big Lucy's apparentices. She's responsible for moving the cabaret everywhere in New York. Rumour has it she is dating Larry the Toe."

Makensie puckers. "Ewww!! Who could love that ugly, battered scum? She has a bad taste in men!"

Ben winks. "Anyway, here's where the story gets interesting. The two Shady siblings have a secret. They have a third siblings. No one knows about him. He hides in and around New York. Only I and his siblings know he exists. You see, his name is...."

"...Shadisius. He plays out around here in New York, and occassionally goes to visit his cousins: Shadis in London, Shady-Zhong in Shanghai, and Shadiaja in Delhi. He runs a peddling business near the meat emporium. He goes by the name Bimby. Sells garbage for money. His siblings visit him daily... sometimes they leave with dirty coats, rusted nails, and bent spoons. It may sound crazy, but it's as true as a Rasputin Egg."

Makensie looks at Ben wide-eyed. "Whoa! That's...wierd..."

BadAss looks lovingly at Isabel waiting ever-so patiently on the park bench he had left half an hour ago. "Is that all, Mr. Ringold? I have someone to get back to," he says.

Ben nods. "Alright, but if you'd like, you can bring that girl over here for the rest of the story."

BadAss shrugs. "Why not?" He runs over to the bench, and walks Isabel to the crowd. "Hello," she says shyly. Everyone waves a hello to Isabel.

"Now then, where was I? Oh yes, Shadisius and his street peddling business. Well, that is only a day job for the man. At night things change--" Ben abruptly stopped when he heard his wife scream.

Sunny was pointing at something. But what? She fainted dead away in a few seconds. While Ben was reviving his poor spouse, the rest of the gang ran to the spot Sunny was pointing at. What they saw made their hearts pond....

Makensie walked up, still trying to let all the information she just heard sink in. 'That damned Shady. Who would've thought he had siblings, and all that was going on', she thought.

Everyone walked up ,and looked in the direction of where Sunny was pointing. "Good lord!!!, Makensie says, "is that Shadisius? I've seen him before but I can't place where, or someone looks alot like him"

BadAss even took himself away from Isabel to look in disbelief at the sighting.

CrunchPatty put down his cigarettes for once, and Lucian let his puppy slip away, because of the shock.

Shadisus stood there laughing in this evil manner, and says, "So, you found out a few things. That isn't all you know", he says, as he looks at his fingernails, that were neatly manicured.

Lucian says, "There is MORE?" and looks at Ben for confirmation. Ben shrugs and says, "Even that is news to me"

Makensie smiles slightly, still finding this all tough to swallow, and says to Shadisius, "Dont just stand there, you piece of scum, tell us what else you are doing"

Shadisus laughs and says, "You all are the detectives, you can figure it out. If you are good enough, that is."

He adds, "Oh, and we appreciate the money you guys give us for your mistakes on cases. It comes in handy" Everyone looks at each other and says, "us?"

Bad starts pacing, and getting nervous, and says, "This is all just too much to handle. What to do...What to do" and as he paces, Lucian looks at him and says, "Will u stop that pacing. You are making ME nervous"

Bad grabs Crunhpatty's cigarette and begins smoking it, and Crunchpatty looks at him as if he just created the biggest sin. "Dang you Bad, I almost had a style down that I could dig and u screwed it up", as he takes out another cigarette.

Lucian rolls his eyes, and says, "Ok you guys, this is serious stuff. We just found information out that we didnt even KNOW about the Shady people, now lets think."

Isabel says quietly, "What about the Priest?" bad smiles and says, "Youjust sit right there darlin, things are getting a little out of control here" and he winks at her.

Crunch rolls his eyes and shakes his head.

Makensie sits down on the bench, and is beginning to lose her train of thought, and why we're all actually here. She begins laughing, but it is more out of hysteria than anything else. "This is so friggin nuts", as she rests her elbows on her knees, and puts her head down, still laughing.

Lucian was in clear thought, then says, "Oh my GOD!!!!" Everyone looks at him with interest and he says, "I lost my dog!" Crunch says, "Dont worry Lucian, we're detectives, we can figure anything out" Lucian looks at him and does his famous rolling of eyes.

Makensie was still in a fit of silent laughter, as she somene say, "Hey! I've come up with something! What if........"

"....the bartender knows something about Shadisius?"

Makensie looks up and sees a smiling Charlie puffing on his cigarette quietly.

"Holy crap, I forgot you were here!" Makensie laughs.

Lucian folds his arms. "Not until I find my dog."

Makensie looks behind him and smiles. "That won't be necessary," she laughs as the little dog bounds up to its master. Lucian scratches it, scolds it, and then looks at the gang. "Well, aren't we going?"

As the gang makes its way to the Tricky Mister, the evil Bimby the Street Peddler aka Shadisius is already plotting the death of everyone in the group. But he has his eyes on one particular detective....

Cyrus shakes his head. "I have no idea who Shadisius is. If I could guess, I would probably think that he was related to my biggest customer, the shady character. But, that's only an assumption."

BadAss looks at Cyrus. "Can you tell us more about Shady?"

Cyrus shrugs. "There's nothing much to tell you. He justs sits in the dark, drinking alcohol while gumshoes come and ask him to fix their records. I never get paid, but I'm too afraid to ask him for my tab."

Charlie puffs on his cigarette. "Why?"

"Because he carries weapons."

The whole gang, with the exception of Ben, gasps. Ben just smiles. "That's not news to me. I created him, remember."

Cyrus looks inside his bar. "I have to be going. Whenever you need me, please don't hesitate to ask." Then he steps back inside his bar,

Makensie sighs. "What now? Where are we going to next?"

Isabel smiles shyly. "What about the Priest?"

BadAss looks at her. "What about him?"

Isabel laughs. "I know for a fact that he is related to the Shady siblings. He's their......"

Uncle!" Makensie, who always laughs about something, especially had to laugh at this one, and says, "He is...what? Uncle? Someone so straight, is related to something like THAT?"

Charlie, while puffing on his cigarette, says, "Interesting"

Makensie says, "Interesting, indeed. This just keeps getting better and better as this goes along"

Smacking Charlie lightly,to get his attention, she says, "Quick, give me a cigarette, Im out." He hands her one, and lights it for her. She chokes on it but smokes it just the same. Makes mental note to grab some cigarettes along the way.

Bad, who was so excited, says, "Come on!! Come on!! To the Priest!!!!! Charge!!" Lucian, who was the more serious of the bunch, shakes his head, and says to Makensie, "Can you believe him? He gets so excited, its a wonder he can solve anything"

Bad stands proud, and says, "It isnt excitement, it is determination, and Im a damn good detective, thank u very much" Crunch says, "That u are, we all are...in fact, we're so good...." Lucian cuts in and says, "Ok enough, now, lets get to that Priest. We have serious work to do and we cant do it if we're all goofing off"

Charlie, the quiet one of the bunch, says, "I heard that" Isabel says, "Heard what?" Bad puts his arm around her, with a soft smile, and says, "It's an expression doll. Did I ever tell u about the time that I whooped this guys butt,named Bugsy the Bum, for stealing this old ladies purse......" and he continued his liner all the way down the street , as they walked to the Priest.

Lucian was fighting with his Puppy, trying to keep him in a straight line. Crunchpatty was walking in a cool swagger, while he smoked his cigarette.

"Too much concentration there Crunch. Youhave to relax if u want to walk cool", Makensie says, with a humorous laugh.

He says, "Why is everyone picking on me for?" Charlie says, "Because we like ya"

Makensie and Charlie walk behind watching everyone, and Makensie's instincts kick in.

"I just got the weirdest feeling",Makensie says quietly. Charlie looks at her, and says, "Whats that?"

"It feels like we are being watched. I feel it so strongly",and she shivers.

Charlie smiles, and says, "Dont worry Mak, there is enough of us here. We will take care of whatever is going on. Frankly, Im confused"

Makensie says, "You're not lyin. I am too." and she laughs. Charlie says, "It will all become clear in time"

They walk along, and Lucian is looking to his right, as if he notices something. Or someone. Makensie sees him shrug, and keeps walking.

Then they hear a loud boom. So loud, we all duck.

Bad says, "Holy crap! What was THAT???"

Makensie says, "Look!!! Over there!!! It is......"

...Manfred Gesling, the Priest!!" Makensie frowns as the garbed father walks towards the grumbling gang.

"What are you doing here, Father Manfred?" asks Crunchpatty.

The priest looks right and left nervously. "Should I say?"

Sunny, for the first time since fainting at the sight of Shadisius, steps forward. "Yeah, we know that your nephew is an infamous drunk who likes wasting his life in a lowdown bar."

Manfred bites his lip. "I think that his third sibling is...following me. Shadisius."

Lucian sniffles. "You don't say!"

Manfred nods stiffly. "Yes. I'm talking a stroll to clear my mind when I feel someone is watching me. Everywhere I go I get this feeling. When I heard you lot coming I hid behind some shrubbery. I thought you were...that Shadisius."

Charlie takes a drag off of his cigarette. "What was that boom?"

Manfred looks puzzled. "Boom?"

Isabel nods. "Didn't you hear a loud boom? Weren't you suspicious when we all ducked?"

Manfred sighs. "That would be a La Cosa Nostra hitman firing away with his Tommy Gun. They do it a lot around here. So much, in fact, I've gotten used to it."

Makensie nervously braves a laugh. "Can you tell us about your nephew and his siblings?"

Manfred shakes his head. "I've only met them once, and that was a long time ago. Shady, Shadette, and Shadisius all visited the church to ask me a favor. They wanted some money. I was curious and asked why. They refused to tell me. So I just handed them the cash.

Lucian crops his head up. "How much?"

Manfred thinks. "$15102"

Charlie puffs on his cigarette. "Interesting."

Manfred nods. "I must be on my way. If you need anymore help, please give me a call." Then he walked off.

Makensie grumbles. "We still have nothing about that dastardly Shadisius. What are we going---" she stopped.

Isabel looks aghast. "Someone is screaming!! It is......."
