Welcome to Gaia! ::

Charles thumbed through his recently-increased wad of cash one last time to ensure that he wouldn't have to go back inside and deal with a stubborn casino owner again. Three times was enough, honestly.

Nodding to himself at the amount, the Chauffeur placed the cash in his coat pocket and used his A~E PDA to text his current client, Mr. Joseph Brown. It's all here. Mr. Ungrid's stubborness is beginning to improve- it only took one dissected craps table to get the right amount this time.

Now it was onto his next business- busying himself with the newest chaos to hit the streets of Gaia.

There seemed to be a scuffle between two bouncers and a geeky looking guy in a hawaiian shirt.

"I swear I wasn't cheating! Not counting cards! No nothing!" He squeaked.

"Oh yeah bub? How have you not lost today?"

"I used the Konami code!" He took out an NES controler and began to input said combo.

The bouncer knoced him out in one punch.

Of course, there just had to be a huge line to get into the Gold Mountain Casino. There was probably some sort of big celebrity there or something, he didn't know. He also wasn't going to wait to find out.

Pushing his way through the line, Athan became suddenly aware that it was snowing.

A strange feat for Gambino island, even stranger was it that it was still comfortably warm out. Stranger still was the fact that when Athan looked up there wasn't a single cloud in the sky.

A few steps forward and Athan was treated to another strange scene. There was a small ring of people surrounding what could best be described as a small boxing ring. Inside were two bottles. One was clearly labeled 'Shampoo' while the other 'Conditioner'. This would have been well and good if it weren't for the fact that the two things had decided to sprout arms and legs and were in the process of duking it out with boxing gloves.

Conditioner appeared to have the upper hand, delivering a vicious right that knocked a few bubbles from Shampoo's lid.

Athan didn't stop to see the rest of the fight. He was at the front of the line and heading up the stairs to the Gold Mountain Casino's entrance. There were a few bouncers in the way, but they both appeared to be a little hesitant to bar his entrance.

That was until they got a good look at him as he stepped past. Athan's appearance was hardly intimidating, but it was far too late to step in and stop him from entering the casino.

The fight seemed normal to Kit. They've already talked to a ghetto raccoon and crashed a car into a farry that nearly made a dent in the island.

Anything else was just plain.

"Go shampoo!" He yelled, he had a few coins on the bottle.

"Why not?" Kit said, turning to his compadre, "It's not every day that you get to do this."

The shampoo bottle slammed into the thin conditioner, the conditioner lost it's balance and fell. The shampoo tilted downward and onto the helpless bottle of conditioner. Which made Kit think, was this boxing or wrestling? Whatever, it's not like he cares, he won a little share of money, even though he only bet, like the gold equavilant to a dollar, least he has two!

Kit went to the bookie and took his dollar.

"I don't think we'll find anything more here, lets get going."

"You want to blow this popsicle stand and go back to Barton? I really don't think that we'll find anything."

Kit faced towrds the exit of the boardwalk.

And then Lazenca was on the scene, slowing to a stop and shifting up to Transitional. "Well, let's see what's here." At a more normal pace, he started walking around, his eyes and ears open for something out of the ordinary.
