Reveal: Jack Hugo
As Jack and Anna were following Mr. Burner, they reached an almost deserted hallway in the ocean of people present there.
Mr. Burner suddenly turned and said pointing towards a white double door at the end of the hallway.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
This way please...
They followed Me. Burner into the room.
Suddenly the door closed behind them.
Anna said out loud and angrily.
Anna
Mr. Burner, what is the meaning of this?
A few moments passed in the room.
As they adjusted to the sudden increase in the lights, they realized that they were both tied up.
They saw Mr. Burner seated infront of them with a silver colored Smith and Wesson revolver in one of his hands.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Did you really think that we wouldn't notice, private detective Jack Hugh?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
What? You thought you could waltz up in here with a made up ID card?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
You know what, I should make you an example and kill you right here and now.
Mr. Burner suddenly stood up and aimed at Jack's forehead and pulled the trigger.
Anna started to cry as the sound of the revolver going off rung throughout the room.
Anna stopped crying. The dread turned into confusion as to why Jack did not fall down even after that long.
Suddenly out of nowhere both Jack and Mr. Burner started laughing.
Anna's confusion only increased.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Well boss, I really didn't think we'd get such a reaction.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Right, miss girlfriend, sorry to introduce myself like this. I am Fredrick Burner and I work for him.
Said Fred, pointing his finger at Jack.
Jack
And I am Jack Hugo. The Boss of the Sapphire Flame gang.
Suddenly Anna flashed knee first into Jack's stomach.
He fell on the ground wrapping his abdomen with his hands.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Damn boss, I thought yo-
As he was saying that, Anna turned around practically flaming with anger and eyes shined with red and gave a knee to Fred as well.
Both of them squirmed with pain.
Anna
Don't EVER do that again.
Well, that would be the first time these men made Anna mad and reaped the consequences.
Anna
So? You idiots gonna tell me what is going on.
Jack
To be honest, I am- was a Mafia gang boss.
Jack
You should have heard about Sapphire Flame before atleast once.
Anna
Heard of it? that's the biggest gang in this side of the continent.
Anna
One of the Great Four Gangs.
Anna
So, were you some gang leader or something?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Some ga-
Jack
I was the boss of the whole Sapphire Flame Gang.
Anna couldn't hold it in.
Anna
No guys... seriously, tell me -
The serious look on both the men made Anna believe the same.
Anna
Jack, the biggest gang boss of the entire west continent?
Jack
I WAS the boss. Not am the boss.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
No boss. We still see you as our boss.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Don't blame yourself for what happened.
Jack
But it was my fault they died.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
You see, there was a couple who were very good with the boss. one day some idiots of the gang went and offended some powerful people. But nothing we couldn't handle.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
These idiots got themselves caught and we needed to rescue them.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
The couple asked if they could lead the charge.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
While they were on there, a gun fight broke off. It was a setup.
While Fred was telling the story, Anna looked at Jack. She had never seen him sad or depressed over the one year she knew him.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Suddenly an explosion occurred.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Both the husband and the wife died.
Jack
If only I hadn't sent them on that mission.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Boss, the death of the Jackdaws aren't on you.
Anna
Wait? Jackdaws? like in Munice Jackdaw?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
After the death the boss promised on their grave that he will protect their daughter no matter what.
