Short Story.

I wrote this a couple years ago for a writing assignment in English. I had a large influence from The Boondock Saints in case you couldn't tell =]


 Sean was a gun slinging Irish man who loved to serve out his very own brand of truth and justice.

One chilly and foggy November night, he was out looking for a man who was said to have connections with the drug lord Tommy Fontaine. He walked a mile across town into a shabby looking pub to meet with the connection. He sits down at a quiet booth in the back of the bar with the man and they start talking about Tommy.
  
"First off what's your name?" Sean spoke in the voice of a seasoned killer.

"I'm Kevin. That's all you need to know." The scrawny man spoke softly but very fast.
"Listen," the man continued " I have all the info you would ever need to take this creep Fontaine down, He lives on the east side of town at 578 east Freemont. On Fridays he goes golfing at the ‘North shores country club’ and after that he heads down to the docks to do business with his clients-"

The man rambles on, but Sean listens intently to Kevin’s words, remembering them precisely. Sean then gets up and thanks Kevin by blowing a hole threw Kevin’s’ head. Sean pays no attention to the people running out of the bar screaming, for he has a bigger job to do. Sean walks coolly along the sidewalk until he reaches the Fontaine residents. Seeing 5 cars around the house Sean decides to put the silencer on his gun so he can kill but remain silent as possible. He sneaks in through an unlocked window, and into a room where one of Tommys henchmen has just entered. The man lets out a startled "Hey!" to the surprise appearance of his killer, but nothing else. The man drops to the floor with a dull but vibrant thud. Sean knows somebody must have heard it. Keeping silent he crosses the threshold and pulls the mans body in more. Behind the door he waits and sure enough a second man comes in. Sean grabs the man from behind and shoves a long Rambo blade into the mans ribs, possibly puncturing a lung. He slowly helps the man fall to the floor where he proceeds to drown in his own blood. Outside of the room he hears no more then 5 men talking about a cocaine shipment they just received.

"I can take 'em." He whispers to himself as he loads the guns.

1..2..3 he jumps out from the room and proceeds to kill the men, when all are dead except Tommy he kills him particularly slowly. Fontaine emits a gruesome gasp when Sean finally decides to put a bullet through the limbless mans head. Sean walks out of the house like a man who hasn’t a care in the world, lights up a cigarette, and continues on down the street to his home.
