Captain RightchousA Story by Quattro HallThis is a short story i started a year ago and plan on trying to fix/finish. I hope you like it keep in mind my Dyslexia. I would love to know your thoughts on the over all story.I awoke to bleeding lights coming though my window I look out on to the city this s**t hole of city. A city that looks like a home I wants had. I wish this place didn’t have to be this way. I walk out into the gleaming night it had just rained. I light a smoke and start down the street. The street light gleam of the roads while people out doing the wrong thing with their life. I walk slow not fearing anything I have a gun and know how. I’m heading to bills a stick dinner a few blocks over. I was caught off guard by a boy in blue flashing his lights and telling me to stand still. I stop, thinking what the hell I did wrong. A man steps out of the car the show casting on his face. The cop walks up to me and says “ace what the f**k are you doing out this late again?” I was shocked it was my old partner Robbie. “Hey Robbie what the hell man? did you have to flash the lights?” I say with a half smile on my face. It was nice seeing Robbie after I left the force he was a hell of a kid and smart one too. “Well I haven’t seen you around much Ace this town gets old fast but I like seeing a filmier face. Well I can’t stop for too long guy but I wish you would stop this free lance s**t and come back to the force. Your too good not to and the pay is better ha-ha” Robbie chuckles to himself as he finished. “Well my young friend I can’t be in blue again until the captain is gone or seen in a different light.” I say while glazing up at the sky. “Look Captain Rightchous may not be perfect but who is? He does a lot of good you know that. Let him be I’m sure if you came back they wouldn’t put you on any case that Rightchous is involved in” Robbie had a point but I’m not sure if it’s still the right thing to do. “Listen Rob I’m going to the dinner, I need to go and you have a job to do. Maybe instead of stopping me you can stop some bad guys” I say while walking away I rise my hand but not looking back to say good bye.
I look at my watch as I walk down these streets it’s a half pass 10 wondering if the city is known for its roads, a city known for its lights. They say this city is a gem in the rough I guess that way it Gem City it was once my city. Now it’s the damn mad man Captain Rightchous’s. I go passed an ally and hear a cry out for help. I look down and see a girl no more than 14 being mugged. I’m not a cop anymore I don’t have to help. I stop a few steps after the ally “s**t!” I yell out I hate know what’s the right thing to do. Maybe 40 sec passed and I turn around with gun in hand. I turn in to the ally looking for the girl and there he was the f**k head fagot himself… Captain Rightchous the man was on the ground bleeding the Captain with his smug look on his face. I duck down to see what’s going to happen and it shocked to my core. The girl was mesmerized by him, a knight to save her, a man’s man. She asks if there was anything she could to do to show her thanks. The Captain looked on to her young body and said “well my dear if your want I would love for your lips to please my captain” I was in a state of awe this man asking for a blowjob after saving her life. The girl smile with eyes lighting up the night and goes to her knees I turn and walk away. I haven’t eaten yet and I want to toss my cookies, hell I don’t even like cookies. This is what I mean this is what the world needs to see about Captain Rightchous. A smug b***h with a cape that using anyone he can for anything he wants.
About five minutes pass and I get to the bill’s I must say it felt like longer. I walk in and sit then order my coffee and bacon cheese burger with eggs over easy on it. I start to think too much about how I want to catch Rightchous f*****g up. Not long after I ordered the girl walks in. She looks right me as if she is seeing through me. It was an odd feeling knowing what she just did. I look at the clock on the wall I noticed it was close to 11. I feel that girl hates me she had to see past by before Rightchous showed up. Or she had seen me walk away when she got to her knees. I think to myself what kind of girl she is does her mom and pop know she’s out? I had a weird feeling of relief seeing her leave and shooting me smile like all way ok. I pay my bill and start out thinking of hell this city will bring tonight. As I start down the street I can’t help but see the night is still and I think just for a minute that that all I well. I get down passed 3rd street and see a crime scene. I stop to ask what happed the officer was Jan a gal in her 30’s black hair a pretty gal. “What’s going on here Jan?” I ask while throwing down my smoke. “Well Ace its looks like a murder but the victim has no signs of foul play. In fact it seem like a suicide but the place says otherwise there is signs of a fight” Jan explains while she talks I just keep thinking where was the city hero captain Rightchous well it doesn’t matter I’m here now. “Was there anything like a gangs M.O.?” I say while looking around gangs in the area is known for their M.O. and that can help me help them. “ No the only clue that the CSI dismissed was a orange cut on the bottom so it would sit and not roll but CSI said that was her getting ready to eat the orange.” While Jan talked I thought of how the killer got in that’s when I notice it this was a girls house that hired me to spy on her man to see if he was cheating. I could not remember her name but I have only seen her once and I’m good with a face and numbers. As the body was being brought out I hear the CSI team say time of death was 12:30am I was in the dinner longer then I thought I look at my watch and see that’s its 1:05. Did I fall asleep at the bills? It wouldn’t be the first time that happened. Jan says “you got any ideas?” I look at her with shock on my face and say “this girl hired me a few days ago to spy on her boyfriend. So either I’m sloppy and he seen me spying or there was more to the kill. I’ll send you the info by morning on her case and his name” I just can’t believe what I was seeing this was not the way I wanted to start my night. See Rightchous use a girl and now a killing. Jan says her goodbyes and gets back to work. I start off myself with my head hanging low. Almost wishing some scum would try and f**k with me so I could put him in his place.
More the half way home I get stopped but three men. They looked liked Ms13 boys I was happy but yet still in a bit of fear. I looked them all up down as they tell me to hand over my money. Knowing they just gave me the chance to pull my gun but I was still right as I get ready to spring on these guys a man comes out of nowhere and grabs ones of them. The man brakes his arm like it was nothing I hear the cracking of the boy’s skull hot the ground as the man throws him down to the ground. I look at the others and they stand with their jaws open I run at one and punch his lights out with one clean hit. I see a cape flash by as the man the man grabs the other 3rd man breaking him easy. I know now this man is Rightchous. Rightchous pulls his ear off and grabs him by his feet and like a cartoon begins to beat him ageist the ground. The blood is being throwing every where the man near to death. I yell “Rightchous stop your killing him!” Rightchous stops and looks at me “well they were going to kill you so why not show them the same?” He throws him down and walks to me “Ace! How you been buddy?” he puts his arm around me and leads me away one of the men yells out “What are you!” Rightchous and I look back the captain then says “your kind of person I'm one who is just like you but I stop people like you. Your filth, your scum, your nothing compared to me” The man looks at me like I’m going to be kind and at the same time he looks fearful. Captain leads me down the street “So Ace what’s new still hates me?” Rightchous ask with a voice like that didn’t just happen. “Well righcey it would so happen I do still hate you. I mean what were you thinking? One day your Mike Rays next your captain Rightchous. Things were different in the old days. Now you were a mask and are a super hero.” I think back to the old days when we were friend. Back then I was new to the force just starting to get the ropes. he was the a CSI lab boy then one day a home experiment gone wrong some how did this. He left the boys in blues not long after is when I got Robbie as my partner. Then he just showed up doing the whole hero thing. “Listen Ace what happened 3 years ago it wasn’t no one’s fault not even mine. I mean come on! If I hadn’t shown up things could have gotten a lot worse.” Righcey blathered on all I could think of was those people, some my friends dying. That girl reaching her hand out wishing could I save her. The blood and stench it will haunt me years to come. “Look Rightchous thank for the help tonight but I good from here, I mean there has to be killers to stop, a little girl to suck you off!” I yell out and look at him with hate. “So you did see that? I was wondering. Hell when you live a life like mine you never know when your last jolly maybe I could die tonight. Doubt it but you never know? Well since we are getting nowhere fast I guess I’ll come out and say it. Ace stop getting your nose in these police affairs you not a cop any more. So that means you don’t do cop things.” The dear fagot in black and red telling me not to meddle in police affairs I feel as if it’s a joke. “Look who’s talking Righcey you need to stop killing people, stop using them, STOP BEING YOU MIKE!” I can’t help but be mad and wish for everything I could go one on one with him. “Don’t you use my real name a*****e or ill put you in a coma!” after yelling out he turns and fly’s away. Now what? I say aloud I begin to walk back yet again and it almost 2am and I need a drink.
I finally get back to the office and pour some drink. I need it after this night. I feel bad about the girl that was used but she did it on her own and then there’s the dead one. An orange I’m trying to think why an orange. Does it matter I’m not a cop anymore! I need to let it go but I feel it’s my fault what if it was her boyfriend? What could I have done? maybe something to save her… damn this city. I black out after a few more drinks only to a wake to a knock at the door. I answer it and see this beautiful reddish blond haired girl easy on the eyes legs that would make a younger man weak. “Are you Ace the P.I.?” this lady had a voice one you love to hear read to you for hours. “Yes I am Miss and you are?” “I am Miss. Burgess, Anna Burgess and I need your help” this lady gets to the business “ you see I’m in fear of my life a man has been leaving notes, hints of what he want form me, little thing in the mail. Its freighting and I need to know who this sicko is. I was told you were good, no one of the best. After I reported this to the cop a man named Robbie Klinn told me to find you.” Now why would Robbie send this woman to me? Unless the blues felt the case was not real or too farfetched. Well I guess I can hear her out.
“Well the lets starts this at once. Please start at the beginning“ I sit at my desk making a new case file. She sits down and starts to look me over as if sizing me up. I guess seeing if I’m the kind of man she wants to invest her money in let alone her life. I ask “first I must ask it’s a policy I have do you have any affiliation with captain Rightchous?” she look puzzled and confused, as if I asked her if this was all in her head. She beings with “no! In fact I hate the man. He kills peoples, he steals and he makes this town look bad. Frankly he as much as a threat to people as the gangs.” Amazed by her answer and now tuned on I look at the gal in a different light. I mean she’s a 10 and now we share a hate for the captain. No no no stop thinking like that she’s a case not a courtship. “Now then Ace it all started 3 weeks ago I got a few weird phone calls. At first it was a wrong number and the man flirted with me saying I had a sexy voice and all the normal things men say. I hung up on him and he call back yelling at me. Say I’m a b***h for doing that and I need to be taught a lesson. I slammed the phone and unplugged it. A day or so later I thought all was fine until he called again and the first thing he said was Anna please don’t hang up. I didn’t even caught it was hi until he said that if I did he would find! Then something I will never forget. He quietly said my my my, don’t you have a pretty trim bush. You see when I answered the phone I was only wearing but a towel. I had just got out of the shower. That my my my lingered in my head for days. I was looking over my shoulder sleeping with lights on and the phone nearby. I even bout a gun it’s not much but it’s something to stop him. I canceled my home phone and now living off my cell. I started getting letters in mail of me walking to work of other girl’s nude tided up and beaten. Note that say it may be me soon. I scared and the cops will not do anything!” she starts to cry and I can’t help but feel bad “the worst of it all I haven’t been home in days I’m too afraid” she is staggering with fear. Well I’m I know I have a good case. I don’t know how I’m going to put plans in to action. “Listen miss Burgess all I can do as of now is saying these three things I don’t know how much this will cost but I can and will help. If you need you can stay here for a short time I bet the hotel is a pricey. If you have a friend to go to I say do so. I will need to go to your palace and see these notes and get a feel of the things. So how do feel about later today?” I say. She agrees and I let her out I give her my number so if anything happens she can call I also tell her I’m door is open and there’s a nice couch if needed. After she leaves I start to think I have never had a case like this. I think it’s just a stalker wanting her found her place by computer or even phone book. All I know is that I need a lead and some where to start and it looks like her place.
I was meeting her in a few hours. I was on the way and I not could help but think of the murder last night. I wonder if this has a clue between the lines between the two. I stop by the Gem City PD and drop off copies of the info on the girl’s case. A few guys stop me and talk we shoot the s**t all the normal small talk ask about kids, who’s got what kind of lady and what’s on the list of things to do. I didn’t add much but a joke here and there but it was nice to feel like a real person again. As I leave I tell them to ask Robbie to stop by some time so we can catch up. Walking to the door the all slowly fade there mood as if the good times we had may not come again. I hope in my car thinking on that. The times we all had the jokes, the bets, the stupid competitions it was a fun time. I drive to her place and get to the door the place look like as if she had not been there for months not weeks. She lets me in and closes the door fast locking it. She point out the letters and walks in to the other room. Saying she is going to get something. I look around the house is not will kept the trash needs taken out and the smell of rotten food. I sit down and look through the letters. The first one was I’ll kill if you go to the cops. The second one was I want like this and a picture of a girl tied up being used sexual. The third was of her nude standing in a room I believe to be her bedroom. I must say that 10 call were right she had a pair and as much as I hate to say it a nice patch. At these I know the curtains match the drapes. No stop thinking like that she’s a client. She walks out and I drop the photo. “Oh I see you found them hmm? You found that one well what’s done is done. I’m taking a shower ok will you stay here while I do so? Please look around I hope you find something.” Before she walks away she takes the nude photo of herself and says “I still can’t believe that he took this picture Its too creepy to thing about” I start though the others and I notice that only two of the hand writing match and that was a clue worth finding that means it could be a gang f*****g with her as well as obsession. I look through all the pictures and I froze in place that girl she was in two of the photos being used she’s the girl who died last night the same girl that hired me. I once again wanted to toss my cookies I guess it’s a good thing I don’t eat them. The sick feeling was leaving my I need to get to the bottom of this and fast. I now have something massive so big that I need to tell the boys in blue. First I need to dig a bit deeper. There was 8 photo counting the one she took bit 11 letters and all but one letter seems as if they have a photo so where and what is the other photo. I start looking like crazy. I hear the shower stop and I need to look in her room. I wait to ask her so in the mean time I look around. Getting window placement where the sicko could have been to take those pictures of her. I can’t find anything in this mess but I did find this place giving me daja vu I know where thing were what cabinet had what. I was a plain kitchen and not much was in anything so its coincidence. It did remind me of my first place I had as a cop. I hear her yell out for me to come here. I run to her and there she is in a towel looking scared “will you in to my room and check for me I haven’t yet” I being in and look around she walks in after me. I check the closet and under the bed. Nothing seem odd of place but the fact it real look as if a man lived with her both man and woman clothing little things like the bed skirt not matching the sheets the nights and dressers were not the same wood. Thing a normal girl would not have going on in her place. I look around a slowly leaving the room. She then walks right in and without blinking drops the towel and beings to get dressed god was she hot. That a*s was to die for. I find on the night a photo I’m guessing it was the one before. I grab it as she walks in to her close. I look and it was not what I was betting on it was her but she was in a pose full nude legs spared going at it on herself. Well I found the last photo but those one was weird it was if he was in the house when it was taken. Right in the living room right at the door No way in hell she would masturbate with the door wide open would she? I leave the room and ask “have the cops already check these for prints and did there cop stuff?” she replies with “Yes and they have copies along with the letters and my written call log” I go to the counter as see the call log the sicko as I will call him for now was calling about once every other day the times were to all over. I bet they were made around the time she came home from work. I tell her that all seems well for now and I think is a bad idea to stay here. “listen go to a friend’s your family or a hotel but the photos of you say this guy or guys are close enough to get you when they want as long as you’re here” she smile and thanks me I say long enough for here to gather some things and we leave locking up be hide me. A man waves at us with much surprise in his face. “Long time no see neighbor” the man yells. She waves, I nod and we get in our cars and leave. I need more to this case it just got bigger.
That night I dreamed I was the f**k head captain and I saved people all night, I got to have sex with a girl on the roof top somewhere. I awoke and was surprised and not I was horny as hell because of Anna but a dream where I was Rightchous? That threw me. I can’t blame myself I have been thinking of his a lot how to catch him and how to make him stop bring suck a f*****g piece of s**t. I started have blank dreams I was there but it was just black, blank, nothing, zipp, nanda. I would wake at random point in the night head to bills and get a bite. I loved bills open 24/7 good food cheap and fast mean cup of coffee too. I like it more because I can think there no one bothers me but a waitress the people are nice and the crows never get to big but at lunch. Like I said I have been there so long and so late I have fell sleep before once for about 5 hour. No one ever bothers me. Days went by and nothing seemed to add up then I was called in by the FBI to get a third look at a murder. I would get paid for a third party look I liked the idea cause I need the money.
I start out the door it was about 6pm the night still young the sky clean and clear. It was a nice start to the night nut it is all ruined but my murder. I drive for what seems like the worst traffic in ages but I get there. I walk out and I’m greeted by Robbie “hi Ace who are you man? It’s an odd one in there I hope you get better results than they have” Robbie’s words hit me hard I’m going to be this man who find the one thing that the f*****g FBI cant. Robbie and I walk in and I’m greeted by a man “hello you must be Ace, I have no idea what has happened here the whole is a mess thing broking tables flip all sighs of a vandal but the man and woman have no sighs of how they died. It’s a class A mystery here no clues no items missing for what we can tell. So the place is yours good luck and happy hunting.” The man walks out and so do a few others Robbie still wondering around looking himself. I can’t see the bodies yet but I will before the autopsy. Hours pass and nothing he was right it was as if yet again the place is being thrown around just for fun. The place seemed in tacked nothing gone wallet, jewels it’s all there. The only thing not flipped is this stand in the living room. The stand was big and seems like to much for one man. But all the items were still there. A pocket watch was sitting on there it did seem out of place for this house. It was a nice one too all clockwork just need to be wind up it was set stop on 3 it also was not dusty like the rest of the things on here. It’s in good keep odd why would this man have this in such good looks and not wound up? I leave it be it’s a pocket watch he may have just got it that would say why it seems new. I look around more hoping to find something and nothing was popping up. No sighs of how they got in and no sighs of the people who live here. No photos on the wall not fair of the people who live here. They must be blain people which are even worst for this case. Robbie yell out “Come here I found something!” I get to him and see the sex toys the ball gangs all smut you would want. Seems to be a week for this kind of thing but in all of this was a note saying
Thank you for your help and sorry my bother you break the rules and you are dismissed for the game we play. The milk bar is not a place for you anymore and please don’t make this harder than it is. Have a nice night with the ninth and forget the whole night. "A
Odd but its helpful now to get this to the feds and see what I can do form here on in. I hand over the letter to the feds and head off to thank Robbie but he had gone. I ask an officer if he seen where Robbie went. The blue say he doesn't know a Robbie and don’t know of one here. I can she there were more super cops in the force now. I hope they pay me and I get to go on my way I have other fish to fry and a pretty lady who needs my help. The FBI man stops me “well its better the nothing, thanks I will have the check sent out too you. If you like you can stay on and help we will pay you. But that either here or there in wanting to ask you about captain Rightchous. The story is you and him don’t really like each other and once you tried to kill him.” this man in a suit going on about things like it’s a everyday thing when a super hero in mask starts making trouble. “Yes I know of him yes we don’t like each other and yes I did try and kill him. He’s not a cop and by law he is not on recorded so if I do it’s not like it matters” I say in a pissed off way. “No se you have it all wrong I want you to work with us taking him down. Think on hares is my number. The names Tom Happier if you need me or have something on Rightchous you call ok Mrs. Michel’s” I nod my head and start to the car. Sit there for about an hour wishing this eerie feeling would away it’s as if I know what happened in the house but it’s all a guess. I’m just trying to be the bad guy so I can find him, god damn it why doesn’t this make since. Three dead two different homes something happens. There dead but no idea why the places thrown around and it’s just enough to thrown the scene off and they know it. F**k! I better go see what the autopsy reports. © 2013 Quattro HallAuthor's Note
