Part 5
After my liquid lunch i decided to have a look into who had owned the apartment before JAL,maybe i could unearth something that would tell me what had so many people sweating bullets
I took a trip down to the town hall to take a look at the records,the guy that had owned the apartment before JAL was NDX.......he was a freelance photographer who often sold his work to the herald,y'know the type,sat in a gutter for 10 hours outside a hotel hoping to catch a shot of Monroe.......he had been telling the editor of the herald that he had a huge scoop for him shortly before he disappeared.....
Cine:"*Cough* and what might i ask are you doing here Hunter ?"
Hunter:"what you mean everyone doesn't come here for a good time ?"
Cine:"heh"
So good ol' Cine had followed his nose and found his way to the same conclusions as me,that whatever got JAL killed links back to this guy NDX.......whether he still thought it all connected to me i was unsure
Cine:"Lets cut the crap Hunter I know why you're here and vice versa,what do you know about this NDX guy ?"
Hunter:"I'm guessing you read this the same as me so i don't know anything more than you do but how come this guy was never found ?"
Cine:"you know this town,full of faces in the crowd looking to find the promised land then one day they wake up and find the promised land is a sh1theap filled with snakes and go back where they came from"
He didn't believe that anymore than i did,this whole business stunk of cover up and power plays made by men in the shadows..........i decided to push it
Hunter:"Come on man you telling me you didn't even investigate ?"
Cine seemed to be weighing up his next move carefully...
Cine:"It was reported but the word came down from the top to ignore it and move onto a real case"
We parted ways and i headed off to find Kmack,this was getting murkier and murkier,everytime i thought i had an answer it turned into another question,someone was applying pressure from a position of power but who was beyond me..........maybe JAL's apartment would hold some answers
I found Kmack where i knew she'd be at Cmill's bar on 10th...Cmill was a decent guy,he ran a straight up business and let Kmack run hers out of a booth without ever asking anything but a small cut in return....
That's my girl...as i walked in i saw her at the pool table playing some mark in a game for money....she'll have lost the first few games and played dumb,unfortunately this guy would find out to his wallets expense that she was far from dumb......
Cmill:"what can i get ya Hunter ?"
Hunter:"Whisky shot buddy"
I took a stool at the bar and watched the game.......damn she was using all the tricks.long lingering bend over the table shots,fluttering eyelash aww shucks i missed again stares......priceless stuff
Cmill:"here ya go......i heard you got into a bit of a jam"
Hunter:"Nothing i can't handle and nothing you want to know about"
Cmill:"I'm not worried about you man I'm more concerned about Kmack"
Hunter:"Kmack's fine she's a big girl and knows how to play the game"
Cmill:"The game you're involved in involves dead bodies and muscle from chicago that's out of her league and in truth yours"
He was right i was in over my head and i didn't want Kmack getting hurt,still i needed this favour from her and it wasn't dangerous
Hunter:"I'll look after her"
Cmill:"Just be sure you do or you and me will have to have a falling out"
Oh great another guy wanting to break my legs,i turned my attention to the game,Kmack had lost 4 in a row......she was ready to take this schmuck for his stash
Hunter:"who's that she is playing ?"
Cmill:"The guy at the table about to lose is called Sabretooth,his buddy is enterthemadness...they're out of towners looking for some fun"
I walked over to the table
Hunter:"I'll take 20 on the dame"
His buddy sneered and took my money....it was an all in game and i was about to make a little profit.......3 minutes later it was over and the guy and his buddy looked like they had just looked down and found someone had stolen their d1ck....time to pay up
Sabre:"the ****e cheated i ain't paying"
Hunter:"Now why did you have to go and say that to the lady.didn't your daddy never teach you manners ?"
I was setting up to get into a fight with this guy,probably not a smart move as he was a hell of a lot taller close up than he seemed from the bar,his buddy was looking pretty shifty as well
Sabre:"You wanna make this into your problem mister ?"
Hunter:"there's no problem your hick ass juts needs to pay up"
That was it,he hit me straight in the jaw............damn i'm to lazy for this sh1t
Next thing i know i'm on the ground and his fists are getting aquainted with my ribs........Luckily Kmack isn't a wallflower and splits enterthemadness wig with a cue and jumps on the big goons back giving me a chance to get a low blow in......hey this ain't a prize fight
BANG!!!
I look up and Cmill is standing with a smokin' shotgun in his hand
Cmill:"Pay up and leave......don't come back or the next one is in your face"
Funny how a shotgun makes folks more agreeable,they paid up and kmack helped me up
we went over to her booth so i could fill her in about what i needed from her tonight

Part 6
I laid it out for Kmack as we sat in the booth and she bathed my cheek
Hunter:"Ouch be careful"
Kmack:"Don't be such a softie sugar....now finish what you were saying"
Hunter:"I can get into JAL's apartment no problem but i'm gonna need a distraction so i can get past the guy on the front desk"
Kmack:"And that's where you need me ?"
Hunter:"Yes,it's not dangerous"
Kmack:"I know Sugar,so what time will you pick me up ?"
Hunter:"It'll be dark by 8:30..I'll pick you up then"
I left Cmill's and headed home,i needed a rest and a sleep before tonight
I picked Kmack up on time,hey i might be a loser P.I. with an overfondness for the whisky but i never kept a lady waiting....plus i was anxious to get into that apartment and see what i could find
Kmack looked like a million bucks,I almost wished it was a real date but i gotta get my mind on the game...The guy sitting at the front desk looked an easy mark unless he was blind or gay Kmack shouldn't have any trouble distracting him.......she went in ahead of me and within minutes the guy was drooling like a puppy dog...Time for me to make my move
Slipping up to JAL's room was easy as was working the lock but now where the hell to look,i got out my small torch.....no jokes this is serious......and started looking around......after a few minutes of bumping into everything from a guitar to a giant furry bear i decided to chance putting the light on
Click
Hmmmmmm strange no light.......i tried it again and still nothing so i wonder...i take out my pick and remove the lightswitch cover.....it was hollow behind and something was shoved in...it was an envelope......another envelope....i shoved it in my pocket and left...giving Kmack the sign on my way out............poor guy
Kmack:"What kind of girl do you think i am ? hmph"
SLAP!
I waited for Kmack outside
Hunter:" You ok ?"
Kmack:"Of course....poor Robo he was a nice guy"
We made our way back to my place,the envelope was burning a hole in my pocket,what was in it and was it gonna get me killed like it had everyone else that had come into contact with it
The door closed behiond us...Kmack headed straight for the bed.....i didn't exactly have any chairs....i poured myself a whisky and lit one up......settle the nerves before the big unveiling
Kmack:"Hurry up Sugar i wanna know what's in that envelope"
I sat down and peeled back the cover of the envelope.......Damn it was worse than i had thought.....much worse.......the pictures inside were of a meeting between the Mayor Doc Ock his aide Lobo and Chicago's number one mob boss Mister J with his enforcer BadSuperman....between them was a large suitcase opened to show more money than I'd see if i lived 3 lifetimes........I was really in the sh1t this time

Part 7
Forget pouring another drink.........i got the bottle.....What the hell was i gonna do.....Mister J had killed more people than the Luftwaffe and he was in bed with the most powerful man in this town.....OK i had to focus....what was the money for.......what could a hood like Mister J be wanting here,he was king of Chicago.....I needed answers before i could make a move and i had an idea where to get them
Hunter:"Kmack you need to go....forget you ever saw these photo's and don't mention it to anyone"
She pouted and looked at me with those big blue eyes
Hunter:"Kmack these aren't the type of people who leave any warm bodies behind,I don't want you getting hurt"
Kmack:"I don't want YOU getting hurt...If you go this alone who's gonna watch your back ?"
She was right as much as i hated it she was right,without her i had no one to trust and no one to turn to.....
Hunter:"Look go home and get some rest,i have to see FA tomorrow and get some info on what Mister J is doing here"
Kmack:"Ok i'll go but you watch your back cowboy and let me know what you find out"
She kissed me on the cheek and left....that was the best thing to happen to me in days...
I got no sleep,the thought of crossing mob bosses tends to play on your mind...I went out early looking for FA.....He was always about somewhere but he kept on the move.....I finally found him on the corner of sunset playing dice......he was a smallish guy with a real twitchy look about him but if any big deal had went down in the last few months he would know the who what and most importantly the why....I didn't have time to waste i showed him one of the pics and he knew straight away what i was asking
FA:"Look man..*sniff*..this is gonna cost ya.....twice what you usually pay"
Hunter:"Not a problem now what does Mister J wasnt here and what does it have to do with the mayor ?"
FA:"Mister J wants to move upmarket....he wants to go Hollywood and rub shoulders with the stars...............A piece of land came up for sale and looked to be going to the council to build a new hospital,they were favourites to get it......all of a sudden Mister J makes a bid and it's accepted,seemingly at a lower cost than the councils bid....seems the mayor took a payoff"
Hunter:"What does he want the land for ?"
FA:"To build one of those big casino's on that will attract all the hollywood stars"
Hunter:"So how did NDX and JAL play into this ?"
FA:"NDX was covering the story,he was sweethearting one of the secretaries at the mayors office and she let something slip about a big deal,he tailed them and got the photos but he also got spotted"
Hunter:"So if they knew he had seen them how come they didn't make him give them back ?"
FA:"They tried,they cornered him the next night coming out of a bar but he made a run for it and got to his car...they chased him and he went crashing off the road....the Mayor had it cleaned up"
Hunter:"So they never went back to check in his apartment to see if he had left the film there ?"
FA:"yes but they found nothing,i guess they figured that it had burned with him until JAL started runnin; his mouth about making it rich off of something he found in NDX's apartment,The Mayor got Mister J to send Badsuperman to see him,BS roughed him to much and accidently killed him before getting the info"
I paid FA his money and went back to the office.....JAL that poor schmuck had signed his own deathwarrant.....ive seen this happen before,guy gets something he can use on a big player and instead of handing it over and ingratiating himself he tries to play the player,when a guy has buried as many people as Mister J you don't try to turn the screws..why would he pay when he can make you disapear ?
There was a knock at the door it was Kmack......I let her in and she sat down.big smile on her face
Kmack:"So what's cooking sugar ?"
Hunter:"I thought you were gonna stay away sweetheart"
Kmack:"No you said i should but i never agreed and anyway you're gonna need me"
Hunter:"How so ?"
Kmack:"I went to see FA last night after i left here,he told me what we needed to know for free"
My face must have looked a picture,that little son of a b1tch knew Kmack was gonna pass the info to me and he charged me for it...double......Kmack must have read my face
Kmack:"Whoops....don't feel bad sugar i have ways of getting info that are beyond you"
Hunter:"I guess so..........what is it you are gonna help me with ?"
Kmack:"I figure your next move will be to do a deal and i figure that will be easier to do with the mayor than Mister J"
Damn she was as smart as she is beautiful........that's exactly what i was gonna do,i had to set up a meet with Ock and do a deal........trade him the photos for BadSuperman so i could make sure i didn't go down for the JAL murder
Hunter:"Heh....you're right,so how are you gonna help me ?"
Kmack:"One of my clients is in society.....lets just say his wife is a good armpiece but not much between the sheets.......anyway he's sweet on me and i got him to give me two tickets to a charity event being thrown tonight by the mayor at his mansion in the hills""
Hunter:"great but i don't need two tickets i can make my own way there"
Kmack:"Sugar you'd stick out like a sore thumb,you need a guide through society"
Hunter:"The guide being you i take it ?"
Kmack:"Well of course,i can play a lady just as well as ****e,i'm a girl of many talents"
So we were set,charity bash at the mayors mansion it was and once there i was gonna have to make my play

Part 8
As you might have guessed a tux wasn't something i had in my closet but Kmack fixed me up with one and we arrived at the party when it was in full swing........Kmack said it was fashionable to be late
Inside was like another world to the one we came from.......the clothes on these people could have bought my apartment out right......despite all the money none of the dames here had anything on Kmack...they were all fur coats and no panties....Kmack was the brightest star in the room
I spotted Ock,he was schmoozing some celeb in the corner of the room....probably telling her how great her new nose looked......I waited for him to move over to the punch bowl and i approached him and slid one of the pics of him with Mister J in front of him
Ock:"Go to my study...i'll be there in a moment...we can talk business"
He never flinched at all and just pushed the photo into his pocket..i felt a chill..and this guy was the EASY option ?.......I made my way to the study,very nice,leather chairs,book shelves full of the classics.....well i'm told they're classics ive never read them myself.....no pictures
He joined me a moment later and poured us both a brandy and then took his seat opposite me
Ock:"So where would you like to be buried ?"
Woah hell of an ice breaker
Hunter:"How about right next to your political career ?"
Ock:"Hahaha..i like it....some backbone....what deal did you have in mind ? i take it you came here with a proposition"
Hunter:"Ive got the photos that you want....i want BadSuperman in return"
Ock:"You want BadSuperman ? My dear fellow what exactly do you think you are gonna do with him ?"
Hunter:"I need his confession that he killed JAL...once i get it you'll get the photo's"
Ock:"The deal seems somewhat favourable to you"
Hunter:"Yes it does but we both know that you hold the power......I have the photos with someone i trust....if i wind up dead they send them to the cops....if i get what i want they go to you"
I was lying my ass off but hopefully he believed me...the photos were hidden in my apartment....under the floorboards
Ock:"Smart move......it seems you have your bases covered.....It's a deal but what exactly do you want me to tell BS ?"
Hunter:"Tell him to meet me tomorrow night at Cmill's....to talk to me about the photos......tell him it's his job to negotiate with me over a price......tell him the truth except the fact you're selling his ass down the river and the few tidbits that would expose that.....once ive gotten what i need i'll meet you at Lobo's cafe and give you the photos"
Ock grinned at me in a way that made my blood run cold and we shook hands.....he had a grip like iron
Ock:"Cross me my boy and the next thing you'll see is the soil crashing in on top of you as i bury you alive"
I tried not to show fear but damn this guy intimidated me....i was begining to think Mister J would have made a better option
I went to collect Kmack to leave.........she was standing in the middle of the room with a glass of champagne in her hand looking every inch the star
Hunter:"Come on Kmack we gotta go"
Kmack:"Awwww sugar just one dance"
Hunter:"I'm not much of a dancer....."
She led me onto the floor....i swear looking into her eyes for those few moments dancing it was like time stood still....she made me believe that there could be good in this world....i'd walked on the dark side of the street for so long that i'd forgotten what feeling good was like....i was more used to surviving...
Relucantly we left.......back to reality, a Hooker and P.I. that lived hand to mouth had no business thinking they could ever live like that.....happiness or the facade of it was bought and paid for in this town and neither of us had the asking price
We started the drive home...it was a nice night and i took the scenic route
Hunter:"I'll drop you off home and give Cmill his car back"
Kmack:"Can i stay with you tonight ?"
I looked at her.....she smiled at me in a way that made me feel ten feet tall as opposed to the loser i really was
Hunter:"Sure.......tomorrow this ends and you can go back to your life and me to mine"
Kmack:"What if i don't want to ?"
Hunter:"What do you mean ?"
Kmack:"Ive got some money saved up...we could get out of this town before it eats both our souls"
Hunter:"Honey as nice as that sounds where would we go and lets face it you and me are both damaged goods"
Kmack:"That's true but we can fix each other...it's worth a shot......what's the alternative ? stay here and die slowly.......my looks won't last forever and you aren't exactly going anywhere as a P.I."
Hunter:"You mean i have to stay with you when you get old and saggy ?"
She thumped me playfully........this idea was crazy but hell i had nothing to lose
Hunter:"What would we do and where would we go ?"
Kmack:"I know of this little town in Idaho.....it's the backend of nowhere but it's fesh air and clean living,we could get a house there with my money and start fresh.....we can get jobs there"
Hunter:"Doing what ? all i know how to do is fish around in the dirt and not make any money"
Kmack:"We'll see when we get there.....Come on it's worth trying....I'd rather try than just fade away into the background of this hole"
It was crazy.......completely utterly insane....but what the hell i was doing deals with mob bossess and staying one step ahead of the law right now..it couldn't be any harder
I dropped Cmill's car back at his bar and took Kmack back to my place...tommorrow was a big day and i needed some sleep.......not sure if i would be getting any but at least the reason this time would be a lot more enjoyable
To Be Continued..........
As you might have guessed a tux wasn't something i had in my closet but Kmack fixed me up with one and we arrived at the party when it was in full swing........Kmack said it was fashionable to be late
Inside was like another world to the one we came from.......the clothes on these people could have bought my apartment out right......despite all the money none of the dames here had anything on Kmack...they were all fur coats and no panties....Kmack was the brightest star in the room
I spotted Ock,he was schmoozing some celeb in the corner of the room....probably telling her how great her new nose looked......I waited for him to move over to the punch bowl and i approached him and slid one of the pics of him with Mister J in front of him
Ock:"Go to my study...i'll be there in a moment...we can talk business"
He never flinched at all and just pushed the photo into his pocket..i felt a chill..and this guy was the EASY option ?.......I made my way to the study,very nice,leather chairs,book shelves full of the classics.....well i'm told they're classics ive never read them myself.....no pictures
He joined me a moment later and poured us both a brandy and then took his seat opposite me
Ock:"So where would you like to be buried ?"
Woah hell of an ice breaker
Hunter:"How about right next to your political career ?"
Ock:"Hahaha..i like it....some backbone....what deal did you have in mind ? i take it you came here with a proposition"
Hunter:"Ive got the photos that you want....i want BadSuperman in return"
Ock:"You want BadSuperman ? My dear fellow what exactly do you think you are gonna do with him ?"
