Behold! the glorious city

[Mega Man]

We were escorted up stairs by the Man several of the goons giving a nod to me and a "Hey Kiddo!" To Ben. At the third floor we stopped and the guard knocked on the door to the left. It opened and we walked into a similarly out of shape apartment but with signs of luxury like brand new couches, a cooler and a large wooden table in the center of the living room. A man who looked to be about 5'10" sat in a chair and beckoned us to sit down in one of the chairs around the table. When we sat down he took his seat at the head of the table while telling his guards to move to the door. He then spoke saying, " It's horrible Ben. When I found about the death of Marsha I told none of my men. We all loved her and it would have caused a ruckus." Ben trying to hold back tears gave a curt nod and the man continued. "As a show of my gratitude we will continue to offer you hospitality and protection to honor her services to us. We'll make sure you never go hungry and will always have a roof over your head. If you wish we could obtain the body and bury her at a small funeral service?" Ben shook his head no and said, "I'm sorry sir a funeral would just complicate things.". " Well we'll all honor her in our own way then. She was a lovely women. Now Ben I'll leave you to greave as it's only been a day since the incident but if you need anything that we an get you don't hesitate to ask. At this a guard came from the door and escorted Ben out. I got up to leave too but the man said " No. No. Stay. I would like to talk to you." I sat down and turned to him. He continued saying "Now you see if your going to be watching that boy from now on you'll probably be living here. And if you have any chance of leaving tier 6 permanently you'll need some more money, eh?" After taking my shocked face he continued " Oh I know, Marsha told me about her fund I had no problem with her leaving as long as she came to visit. However Marsha has sadly left us. As if on cue one of the guards signed a cross on his chest. Tomorrow I will announce her departure from life to the members here and my associate. They'll all know by then. But let's get back on topic. I can give you money in exchange for services." After seeing my face go sour he put up his hands and said " Oh no nothing morally wrong per say if that would offend you. You see your the first Prime we have had to come into our home. Someone like you could be useful in getting rid of our meaner, more rowdy to say rivals. You'll be helping the community by stopping gang violence and rug operations while helping us. We'll pay handsomely for it too. Besides all we do is buy/smuggle illegal weapons and sell them to the people who won't use them to make a ruckus. Sometimes we act as spies and hired muscle. Nothing like what our rivals do, they are much worse criminals. Most of our income is generated from legal weapons shops ad restaurants on tiers 4 and 5. Besides the smoother things our in tier 6 the easier it is for us to smuggle weapons and the more money we can give to you. Besides you'll be doing Ben a favor earning the money he needs to live in a better place. So come on would you say yes?" I thought my situation over and came to the conclusion that if I would be making this crime hole a better place while helping Ben move to tier 4. I got up and gave him my hand. "I accept!"
