700 Nitro and a Sledge

Back at Mick's shop, Clarity, LQ and Kip were all watching Mick install the first real pieces of chrome on Ghost. Mick was sure to be careful with his right hand, years and years ago, The Ghost had injured his hand in the military resulting in his discharge, but now, this was different. Mick installed the metal wrists, and extra plating to cushion an shot he took.

After a few hours, Ghost was up and about ready to take his first, 700 Nitro Express Revolving Rifle shot.

LQ looked on skeptically as The Ghost lined up his shot. With the release of a breath the rifle deafened the area, obliterating a scrap mannequin Mick had set up.

LQ clapped smiling, "Seems like the Ghost found the perfect weapon."

"Yea, now all I need is a Sledgehammer for close range combat and I'll have a deadly combo."

Mick walked out with a Sledgehammer, 20 pounds of steel blunt force trauma. Before Mick could give it to him, The Ghost paid for the rifle and the sledge, no sense in having Mick work for free.

The four headed back to the hideout awaiting another score.

Meanwhile, Evelyn's son, Aaron, was going through his father's will. He was shocked as he read it. "My wealth and company will go to my son, but all artifacts of the "Ghost Of Ottawa" are to be returned to him should he still be alive."

Aaron sat back in his chair, he was now the wealthiest man in Free city and he was to be a delivery boy.

"Charlotte, please have one of our lower officers return all artifacts related to the Ghost of Ottawa, back to him."

"Right way boss!"

Back at the hideout, the others were enjoying a meal when Kip burst in.

"YO gotta guy here looking for GH."

Everyone rushed outside armed and ready for a fight.

"Which one of you is known as "The Ghost Of Ottawa."

"I go by Ghost now." started The Ghost, "What is it that you want?"

"The late Evelyn Rockefeller has left in in his will that all your possessions are to be returned to you."

The others looked at the man skeptically.

"He also has left your bank statements as well. Being frozen for 50 odd years is quite good on your interest. There will be a truck arriving in an hour, feel free to keep it."

The man handed The Ghost a set of keys then got back into his car and drove off."

"What did he mean by Interest?" asked Kip

"HOLY FUCK! GH IS LOADED!" yelled Kay!

"Says here you're a millionaire, plenty of money and some building in your name." said Clarity

"Get the van, lets go check out this place."

The Pulse Sparrows pile in and LQ heads to the building. Upon arrival, it wasn't huge, but it had more space than the apartments everyone was living at, and plenty of room to be the new hideout.

"This place..." started the Ghost

"IS FREAKING AWESOME!" yelled Kay checking it out.

"What do you think LQ?" asked the Ghost, "Should we move in?"

"If you'll let us crash here." LQ chuckled

"Fine by me, I hereby christen this place, "The Sparrows Nest"."

The others gathered around as kay squeezed them in for a quick photo. Shortly after the truck arrived.
