Date: Tue, 18 May 2004 14:07:31 -0700 (PDT) From: Flcl flcl Subject: Chapter 7 of Rafello the Raven son of Jack the wolf Well, here's chapter 7. Its a little more interesting here. Chapter 7: Eli's Deadly Secret Ra drove all the way to the east side of town. It was where the rich people in town liked to hang out and shop. Ra sometimes went there. The east side resembled Tokyo, Japan. There were stores, skyscrapers, etc. When Ra went on the Tax run with his parents, he noticed that they had their hands in almost everything on that side of town. They probably had their hands in the Chinese joint they were going to now. The city was bustling with crowds of people and traffic. The sun was beginning to set so the stores were starting to turn on their lights. It was beautiful. Ra turned down Magnum street. The restaurant was kinda crowded. Ra whipped into the parking lot and found a good parking spot. They got out. Ra had a good look at Eli. He was wearing a new blue Sean John outfit and some blue Air Force 1's. Ra had one his blue Air Force 1's too and some dark blue Guess jeans and a dark blue Guess shirt. Blue was Ra's favorite color. They walked over to the door. Ra instinctively opened the door for him. He was a nice guy. They walked in and got seated by a Chinese waiter. They sat at a window seat. The waiter gave them a menu. But Ra refused. "Uh, we would like this to go please." Ra said. "Ok, justa tella me when you ready to order. Sirs." The waiter said with a heavy Chinese accent. Ra and Eli looked at the menu. They talked very little. Ra was kinda shy, this being his first gay date he had ever went on. Eli looked into Ra's eyes occasionally, to see what he was thinking. Ra would only look for a split second then turn away, to try to seem uninterested. The waiter came back after a few moments. "So, have you two decide what you want?" "Uh, yeah. Let me get the sesame chicken and some of your chicken fried rice." Ra said to the waiter. "I guess I'll have the same!" Eli said enthusiastically. "It will be ready in a few minutes." The waiter says then walks away. After about fifteen minutes, the waiter comes back with their food wrapped up and ready to go. They grab their food and Rafello pays the waiter. They leave out of the extravagant restaurant and head out to the car. They get in. "So, we heading to your place to eat?" Rafello asked his date. "Yeah. I live over by the computer company downtown. "Eli said. Ra looked at him with a strange face. The computer company is in the heart of the city. The only place Eli could live is in the expensive apartments or on the streets. "You and your parents live in one of those apartments?" Ra said with disbelief. "Yeah, but there not here so we have the entire house to ourselves." Eli said. "Where is it?" "Its on the corner of Washington and the Boulevard by the river." Ra just looked at Eli and he thought to himself, " Man, this guys parents must be as rich as mine. Damn! This could be interesting." Ra pulled out onto the street and made a left towards the Boulevard. The boulevard is a long street that went from one edge of the town. It lead straight to The Wolf River, one of the most expensive places to be. The Boulevard went straight towards the river and turned, so one could see the river on one side of the busy street and see the big downtown area on the other side. Ra drove and made the turn. After a while, he reached Washington street. Eli's apartment building was on the corner among many colossal skyscrapers, office buildings and expensive stores like Prada, Verace, Guess, Cardier. Ra often shopped at the Guess store. Eli directed him to a parking structure across the street from his apartment building. He had to pay seven bucks, but Ra didn't care. They got out of the car and walked to the street. They could see the huge computer company building, which was next to the parking structure. They crossed the street. Eli led him to the front door of the apartment building. There was a lot of elaborate brick and stone designs on the front stoop. Eli swiped his entry card and pressed a few numbers into a keypad that was next to the door knob. Once he entered the number the door came open. Ra was shocked to see that the building was designed like a Indian palace. There was gold on the walls making the entire lobby seem to glow. Ra's house didn't even look this good and his family owned more than half the city. Did they know about this place? "Welcome to The Lotus Apartments. My home." Eli said. Ra was still in shock looking around the beautiful place. How could Eli's parents afford this? Were they richer than the Chance Family Mafia? Ra looked around the lobby. There was a front desk in the middle of it. The floor was made of marble like everything else in the place. There were huge pillars made of marble and there were bronze, marble and stone statues of lotus flowers around the room. The lobby was at least three stories high. "Come on. I'll take you up to apartment." Eli said with his bag of Chinese food in his hand. Ra finally broke out of his daze. Eli led him to the elevator. A elevator operator opened the door. The entire inside of the building reminded Rafello of an old, rich, 1920's hotel. There seemed to be bronze and gold accents on everything that wasn't wood or marble. " 25th floor please." Eli said. The operator just nodded and pressed the button. There was a woman with a tight fitting dark blue dress and a big hat on the elevator with them. She got off at the 17th floor. A guy with wearing nothing but a wet hand rag got on and said, "Could you tell the super that we need a spare key for room 15-09. I'm locked out again." The elevator operator, who appeared only slightly older than Ra, snickered under his breath then said, " Just wait here. The super for this floor will be here in a moment." Then he closed the door and broke out laughing. Ra and Eli saw this and did the same. They finally reached the 25th floor. They got off the elevator and Rafello followed Eli to the apartment. It was number 25-05. Eli pulled out his key and opened the door. He turned on a switch and the lights came on. His apartment was a huge contrast from the rest of the building's Indian Palace look. It had lots of technology and comfort a 17 year old would enjoy. The door opened up to the living room. There was a large, dark orange colored leather couch in against a wall. The couch was facing a 42 inch plasma screen T.V.. Eli had a DVD connected to it and some controllers on the glass table between the couch and the T.V.. Before Ra noticed the expensive stuff in the room, he noticed the wolves. The entire room was decorated by wolf stuff. There was a painting of a wolf on the wall, a glass and wood display case with wolf figurines, and a plush wolf doll on the floor. Eli took the bags and put them on the kitchen table in the next room. Ra saw a bowl of dog food on the floor. "Cool! You have a dog!" "Yap," Eli said in a lick voice, " it's a Husky, well its mixed with a wolf. I call him Neptune Wolf." Eli called to his dog. It ran towards him then stopped when he saw Ra. "Come on, its ok boy." Eli said. The dog inched towards him then walked over to Ra. It reminded him of his own dog. A tear formed in his eye. He wiped it away quickly. "This is a cool dog you got here. I had oneža long time agožbut heždied." Ra said. "I'm sorry to hear that. I bet he was your best friend." "Yeah." Ra said. Neptune came back over to Eli and he started petting and rubbing his grey coat. "I love animals, especially wolves, as you can see around the house. Believe it or not, I once had a pet wolf when I lived in my old house. It was by the woods though, I would give him food and stuff and the wolf acted like a pet dog." Eli sighed then looked back up at Rafello. "Well, that was a long time ago... Let's sit over here on the couch, Ra." They both grabbed their bags of Chinese food and went over to the couch. Neptune was close behind them. Eli turned on the T.V.. There was gay porn on. Eli fumbled with the remote and it fell under the couch. After about a minute, he tuned the channel to MTV. There was music videos on. Eli looked at Ra and blushed a little. Ra had never seen gay porn before. He was kinda embarrassed because he had a erection. Eli tried to play it off. "So, what it like being Rafello? " he asked. Ra laughed a little. He told Eli about his family, but he didn't mention the Chance Family mafia at all. He told him his parents was rich and his aunt owned the major utility companies in town. "So, enough about me, how about you Eli? How is it like being gay in this big city of ours." Ra finally said. "Well I'm a unique person. I found out I was gay when I was in the 8th grade. I couldn't believe it at first. I tried to suppress my feelings towards men and it worked, that is until I was in 9th grade. There was this guy I liked. I saw him on my way to school everyday. He was soo sexy. I just couldn't control myself. I just went up to him in school one day and asked him out on a date. He just looked at me... then started laughing. There was a crowd around us so everyone knew then I was gay. Before then I acted like a normal guy, but since that day I just said to hell with that act, I'm going to just act as I truly am. The next day I wore really tight pants and a sleeveless pink shirt. Fuck'em." Eli said. He said the whole thing as if he didn't care what Ra thought. After all Ra wasn't positive he was gay or not. "As I look at my life now, I realize I was gay every since the day I was born. Its amazing." Eli laughs a little then continues. " I was so unhappy throughout out my life and one day I get publicly humiliated and I feel like a weight was lifted off of my head." Eli pauses. " Want something to drink?" "Yeah, what you got?" "I got some orange juice, cranberry juice, Pepsi, but if you looking for something stronger, I got some Hennessy, Grey Goose, and some Red Rimy." "Well I'll have a little bit of column A and a little of column B. Give me some of that Grey Goose with some cranberry juice." Rafello said. Eli got up and went into the kitchen. Ra felt strange. "Why would his parents allow their 17 year old son to be alone in the house for 2 weeks without keeping close tabs on him?" Ra thought. Eli came back in with the drinks. He made himself the same thing. He sat right next to Ra on the sofa. "So, where did your parents go to?" Ra asked. "...they went on a two week vacation in France. They should be back... next week, if they don't decide to stay longer." "Stay longer?" "Uh yeah. I got my own job out here and... they send me down money for the rent and stuff." Eli said. Ra took a sip of his drink, he didn't believe him. He looked around the room, he noticed that there were no pictures of his parents. He looked at Eli, he was eating his Chinese food. "So, what city are they in in France?" "Paris . . . of course." Eli said. He sighed. "Look, there's something you have to know about me and my parents." Ra sat up to hear what he was about to say. "My parents were killed 4 years ago by this dude named Jupiter for no reason. He runs some gang around here called the Planets." Eli said. Ra looked on at him , shocked by what he just heard. Eli continued, "I joined the Planets rival gang, the Kitsune gang, to get my revenge. The Kitsune Gang is notorious for killing anyone in their way. We caught up with Jupiter last year. I shot him once in the chest and he fell. It was the first time I ever killed a man. After that, Hige, my boss, made me a full member of the Kitsune gang. Everyone had to get a tattoo of a fox on their arm." Eli rolled up his sleeve and showed Rafello his tattoo. All of a sudden Ra didn't feel so special, being the youngest member of The Chance Mafia. "After I was a real member, Hige started paying me to make hits. He was already paying my rent for my parents old house, and now he gives me that and 5 grand for every guy I killed. He said I was very skilled. I was very clean with my shots. I have very excellent aim. I make about 4 hits a week That's how able to afford the 4 grand a month rent here. Hige is a nice guy, like a father to me. But he didn't know I was gay. Before I made my first kill, he would help me financial since my parent were gone. I think he cared about me more than any of the other guys. So far we have complexly wiped out the Planets. I think only like two of then are left, Pluto and Saturn. They are my next 2 hits. I already have surveillance on them." Eli said as he pulled out a folder with the names of all of the ex-Planets, Neptune, Earth, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Uranus, Venus, Titan, Moon, and Trenton. Ra was scared. Eli was a dangerous contract killer and he seemed to like it. Rafello was strangely attracted to him right then. He felt compelled to tell him the truth about his life or organized crime. "There's something I have to tell you about me." Ra said. Eli took another sip of his drink and put it down. " I'm a mobster. I'm part of the Chance Family mafia. I'm going to be the next Don when my father dies. My family controls more than half of this city including this building. I'm also training with Master Kakashi. This is my only day off. Tomorrow I have to go back to my Shinobi training. I don't tell you before because was afraid of what you might say. And according to my father, the Chance Family mafia now owns the Jamaican Drug dealer on the west side and we put the Cubans out of business."Ra said "That is like so cool. At first I didn't want to tell you. It felt good to get that off my chest." Eli said with relief. "Me too. Maybe one day we can rule this city together. When my father goes away, we can run the Mafia together. Hell I ask my father to make your rent here free. I'll just tell him you are a close friend." "Yeah that would be cool. But you do promise never to tell anyone about me right? I have an anonyms reputation out here." Eli said. "Yeah." Rafello the Raven continued his date with Eli the Kitsune Killer. Eli showed Ra his expansive gun collection. It was mostly sniper rifles and pistols with silencers on them. He had a few automatics, but they had silencers too. Ra could tell that Eli killed with stealth. Ra was learned how to use Japanese Swords with Kakashi. He liked that as much as his Desert Eagle. Then Eli gave him a tour of the apartment that spanned two floors. It seemed more like an expensive hotel than an apartment. Eli showed Ra his bedroom. It was as large as Ra's. it was designed like the rest of the house: contemporary. Ra waled over to Eli's bed. Eli was right behind him. The bed was near a wall that had a large window with a view of the downtown city lights at night. Eli came behind him and pushed Ra upon the bed. He then got on top of him and began taking off Ra's shirt. Ra was surprised but he like the feeling of Eli's body on top of his. He began taking off Eli's shirt. After the shirts were off, Eli got up off of him and when to the dresser and pulled out a few toys, a dildo, a butt plug, some lube and some weird type dildo. Ra looked up. "What's that?" "It's a dildo of a wolf's cock. This part here at the base is the knot. It feels really good inside." Eli walked back to Rafello. It was 5am when Ra woke up. `Shit I gotta go!" he said, waking up Eli. Ra wiped his mouth clean of Eli's cum. He noticed it was all over his face. "Shit" he said. He ran into the shower. Eli joined him. When they were done Ra got out and got dressed in old clothes. "Where ya going?" Eli asked. "I have to finish training, but I promise I will see you in two weeks." Ra said as he left out. Ra ran to his car and drove off to the secluded place where Kakashi's dojo was. He his car a long way from the place. He was supposed to walk there from his house. He opened the trunk and pulled out his black pants and white scarf that went around his lower chest and started walking to the school. Ra made it just on time at 6:00am. Kakashi was waiting for him at the table in the "living room" of the school. He was drinking a cup of black tea. He made one sniff in the air. "You've had sex young one. I shall have to punish you today. You remember our agreement." Master Kakashi said. Their agreement was very strict. Event though Ra had Saturday's off, he was not supposed to indulge himself at all, especially sex. Kakashi wanted Rafello to be all his, to be his student, his servant, his disciple. Rafello didn't know it but Kakashi agreed that Rafello would be his last student. After that Ra would have to reach the future generations his special technique. "You can start with push-ups." Kakashi said. Ra immediately dropped to his hands and knees and stated doing push-ups. "You should not stop until an hour from now. If you stop before then, the clock will start again from minute one. You got that kid? This will teach you to be stronger against temptation." he continued. Ra didn't care about the physical paid he had that day. All he cared about was Eli, and his next break. He was to have both Saturday and Sunday off. He wanted to spend when every minute with him. Rafello Chance finally accepted that he was gay.
