"He's gone...". "Well DUH! He wouldent have if you acctully guarded him with a pawn or a rooke!" stated Isaac. "I know but..." began Kyle, "he was important to me...". "Cut the drama Ky!" Isaac said, "You want to go again?". "What time is it?" asked Kyle. Isaac checks his watch, "4:03... why?". "I've got to go" Kyle said standing up and walking away. "Alright... tomarrow then?" asked Isaac. "...Tomarrow..." Kyle said softley.
Never OffAs Kyle walked down the street with graffiti filled walls to left and right of him, he looked around and saw only hate, through the kids being bullied, people getting beat up... he knew that there was nothing in this world for him. He climbed the Endless five stairs, up to his doorless apartment. And went to the bed which his father had been laying. His father had devoleped Cancer, they haden't the money for a doctor, so the boy hadto bring in money... other ways. He worked nights, mornings, and afternoons. He has from 3:56 to 4:09 and thats it! His friend Isaac helps keep his morale up... but it's just not enough. *Riiiing, Riiiiing* blares his clock,that means, time for more work.

"He's... hangng in there." replied Kyle nervously. "Look, 'da boss is exptectin yuh!, Don't keep 'im waitin!" harlod says walking in the casino. "Thanks" Kyle replies. He puts the money in his sack and zooms off toward the boss's room. "Mr. Rutch sir?" Kyle says opening the door to the office. "Ahh! Kyle the kid!" Mr. Rutch says turning around. "You never ceese to amaze me kid!". "Sir?" Kyle says confusingly. "You work three casinos... two power plants and a sewer... just for your dear old pa." Mr. Rutch says. "Well I... do whatever I can for him sir. He is my father after all." Kyle replies willingly. "Look kid. My customers see yuh, running out of my casino and into the opponets casino, who knows what they'll think! So, I have a deal for yuh! Because your like my son, and this casino can't run without yuh..." Mr. Rutch starts "40 grand. And, I'll pay full costs... for your doctor... but you work SOULY here! deal?". "...FOR REAL!?" Kyles shouts exitingly. "For Realzyz, and just tell me if you need anything else!" Rutch adds. Kyle hugs Rutch "ThankyouThankyouThankyou!!!"
The DoctorKyle has done it, he got a doctor for his dad, a full nights rest, and he beat isaac. Things were going his away... Until... "Son, I don't know how to tell you this.." The doctor started. "We need to take your father in for better care.". "Wh- Why?" Kyle asked in terror. "Because your father doesent JUST have cancer, he also has the flu, and... The Black Plague! The doctor told the boy. "Can I at least go with him?" Kyle asked. "I'm afraid not. And, you can't stay here either. we need to disinfect this whole place!". "But... I haven't another-" Kyle started but did not finish. Rembering what Mr. Rutch said, he accepted the appartments fate, he went off toward the casino.
A New LifeAfter being accepted into the house of Mr. Rutch, he found that life Can be fun after all! he played golf with Rutch and played on his boat, Mr. and Mrs. Rutch, raised Kyle as if he was there own. Kyle never forgot his real dad of course. He visted him every time he could and the few times that the Rutch and Kyles father talked they got along nicly, whenever Kyle was crushing on a girl, or having trouble with a friend he would always go down to get father to son advice from his father. But one day, the doctor called the Rutches, and Kyle down to the hospital, and the father took turns talking to each one. He told Mr. Rutch to always keep a sharp eye on Kyle, he told Mrs. Rutch to help Kyle out with anything, and told Kyle to do something very mature... "Kyle..." the father said. "Repeat to me what I told you too do." "No dad! I can't!" Kyle replied in tears, "Kyle... my boy... please" the father replied. "You... you said... to-to-to forget about you, and to-to-to move on." Kyle said crying. "And... can you do that for me boy?" The father asked. "...If that's what you want dad... I'll-I'll try."
The Second GameKyle and Isaac were playing chess, and Kyle had nearly beaten Isaac... when the phone rang. "Hello this is Mr. Rutch." Mr. Rutch said. "Oh... uh- Hold on, Kyle! It's for you." said Mr. Rutch handing the phone to Kyle. "Yes?". "Hello Kyle this is Dr. Benjamin, your fathers doctor." said the doctor. "Hello Dr. Ben, whats the news?" Kyle replied. "I'm afraid it's your father son...." the doctor nearly concluded... "He's gone"
