The vast dome of the sky in the Gray makes the world seem so much smaller, like one could actually grasp it all in ones hand. Such thoughts cross my mind as I sit in my office at Cabrini-Grean. The time has come to play with the bigboys and to show them I know the game.
A few moments pass as Candyman waits for his call to be connected to “The Bey”, one of the most notorious men of the underground.
“Candyman, what is your need in calling me?”, The Bey’s strong voice intones over the data-link in a deadpan. “Mr. Bey, I wanted to call and inform you that my organization has struck out at the Black Toenails and their connection to Dream Corp has been confirmed. I would like to request that you acknowledge the seizure of their territory by Desiderium.” The Bay breaths for a few moments, “I sent my man, Pacoy, to help you with this matter. I trust his services aided you.” Candy understands the intent, “Yes, your aid was instrumental in the smooth success of the takeover – I’ve packed up a sizable amount of the Toe’s merchandise in thanks. It should arrive within the next few hours, narcotics primarily.” The Bay’s tone become lighter ,“I look forward to working with you again in the future Mr. Candy – I hope your Ghost-hunt proves fruitful…” click
Candy leans back in his chair, sweat on his brow and a thin smile on his lips, “I look forward to it too.”
