please tell me what you think.

Twisted Luck by Ricardo Piper



It all started in L.A. I was at the victor's Casino, the best in town. There, my game was poker but that’s not all I played. You might ask where do I get all my luck from, well it comes naturally. Besides casino winnings, I’m a bounty hunter and my last bounty was worth a half a million dollars, some guy named Hades. I go by the name of Ricky. I travel around with some weirdoes, anthonie also known as assain, Damian the hell raiser, and some bushy haired kid named Eric. I don’t know where the hell he came from. Anyway, I was playing craps when some guys came up to me wearing black tuxes. I said

Ricky: “who the hell are you. “

They answered

Guards: “500 grand on your next roll”.

I had enough for the night so I said,

Ricky: “sorry guys but I’m calling it quits for the night”.

So I brush of my jacket, and who to come and slap my shoulder, yep it was Eric and he was playing tag. The dice fell out of my hand and I rolled a six, not only was that role not lucky but I was in deep @$*&, because I now owed the casino a half a million dollars, and I had spent most of my bounty money on my car. Anyways I had stop playing, but they didn’t by that. So I did the first thing that came to my head, fight these guys off. When the casino manager open the door to his office, out pop Victor, I thought the manager was just some skinny guy in a suit. When I saw him another thing ran through my head, run! He told his guards to catch me but I was to quick. When I reach my car I remember that I left Eric inside. They had caught Eric and told him that his friend better bring him his money. I didn’t really know him and he did make me role the dice so I was determine to leave him but I just couldn’t because he is a part of the team, how ever he got there, but he is. So I put my gear in drive and ram the entrance of the casino with my car. I manage to hit Victor. I grab Eric, pulled him into the car and drove off.


Driving top speed in my bumble bee.

Ricky: “It looks like we lost em. What the hell were you thinking and where’s the rest of the guys."

Eric: “I don’t know”

Ricky: “ you wouldn’t know”

My back window shield broke, when I look it was Victor's man shooting at me. I was doge ding, but a missle shots blew off the back of my trunk.

Ricky: “Damn that’s another 30 thousand”.

I told Eric to take the wheel and keep it steady. That was a bad idea. I went in the back seat and pulled out my bazooka, I didn’t want to use it because the shells cost a bundle. I shot it at one of the cars and it blew up.

Ricky: “One down two to go.”

I fired another and blew up one more car up. I only had one bullet left and I was having problems locking on my target because Eric kept on surving the car about. I fired my last shot but i miss.

Ricky: “Now what are we going to do.”

Eric: “Here you take the wheel ill handle them”.

Ricky: “what you”

I took back the wheel and gave him a chance. He pulled out his pistol

Ricky: “what are you going to do with that”.

He shot once and hit the left wheel of their car and made it flip over.

Ricky: “ so your not all that bad huh kid, but I wish you could had done that sooner so I wouldn’t have to had use my bazooka shells!”

Driving along I see a small town ahead and I thought maybe I can get some parts for the bumble bee there. I pull over at a gas station that had a little restaurant there. while they were cleaning what’s left if my car and giving it fuel, I use a pay phone at the station, I called the rest of the guys, they were in new jersey they couldn’t come where I was so they told me to stay with eric till they get back.

Ricky: “no I don’t want him to stay with me,
hello, hello!, hello!”

Eric “I think they hung up

Ricky: “Shut up”.

I needed some money quick because I was broke. I have a thousand dollars but that’s at the head quarters and that’s to fare. Something had just ran through my head, when the guard at the casino told me that he wanted a half a million on my next roll I didn’t sign the contract saying I would

Eric: “Um…. Ricky

Ricky: “What now.”

Eric: “Well before I slap your shoulder I had sign the contract in your name

Ricky: “What! Why would you do that.”

Eric: “Because I thought it was attendance"

Ricky: "So why didn’t you write your name"

Eric “Because they already knew i was there, duh.”

I still needed some money fast. I could only think of one thing, when there finish with my car ill jump in and break out. After they finish with the car that was in terrible condition. I ask the guy how much, when he went to get his calculator from in his back pocket I step on the gas and left yelling out

Ricky: “ it pays to go to school huh”.

But i didnt get far I hit a tree about 50ft from the place. I felt a tapping on my shoulder when I turned around it was the manager, the gas boy rated me out. He held a shot gun to my head an told me to get out the car, I wasn’t stupid, I wasn’t going to try anything, . I ended up doing repairs on other peoples cars till I had work off my payment

2 hours later

I finish the repairs, grab Erick and left. By the time I returned to my car there was some crack heads stilling the parts from my bumble bee. When they saw me they ran. Now my car was really a wreck no door, no seat, no wheels, they took every thing except the car frame.

Ricky: “You do know this is all your fault right. Now how are we suppose to get out of here.”

We had to hitch a ride. We’ve been waiting for three and a half hours, finally a red pick up truck stop. It was an old wash up boxer named jermaine. Me and Eric hop in the back.
