A few hours later, Alex comes back to his workplace, he parked the motor scooter who helped him complete a few pizzas delivers around Ruby City and even at a house outside the city and in the rural zone, which was really a tough job because two roads connect the countryside and that is highway and a road who is used for bikers or people who drive motorcycles. After parking the scooter in the area where the business vehicles are stored and used for pizza deliveries or to bring the necessary ingredients in preparing Italian dishes that are prepared by real Italians and not by chefs who have no Italian gene or they have ever heard about Italy. Alex goes to his cousin to report his deliveries and tells him he has a mission to accomplish, but not to the Yakuza. His cousin, being in a good mood, allows Alex to go and solve what he has to do, and asks Alex one thing which will make him feel not good.
"You know the girl I am meeting?"
"Yeah... It is Elizabeth, right?" asks Alex Rodriguez to his cousin.
"Well, Alex... I have to be honest with you. I am going to kick you out of my home in a few days."
"Why though?"
"I am going to do the big step, cousin. I-I want to marry Elizabeth."
"Oh... Alright... I u-understand, Chris." says Alex not feeling quite alright because he did not expect that response from his cousin, is it true that Chris is in a relationship with a gorgeous woman like Elizabeth, but marriage right now, even when Alex is in a life and death affair? Sometimes time is not so good for people who have problems. "Alright, Chris. I understand the situation and I will find a house."
"Oh. Do not worry about where you are going to stay," says Chris getting off from his chair and handing Alex three keys. "You already got your own home."
"Really?" says Alex who couldn't believe that such a miracle was actually happening to him. Living with someone nowadays is a natural thing in big cities or development, but living in a house, is a dream that many people who work twelve hours a day without vacation cannot afford it.
"Really, cousin," says Chris smiling at his cousin. "The house is located three meters away from this business. You can enjoy it later. Now go and finish that business."
"Thank you, Chris." says Alex to his cousin while he left the Boss room and the heading to the exit from the Pizzeria and then headed to a taxi who is parked on a sidewalk and waiting for customers. Alex enters the taxi, and on the driver seat, it is located the driver, who asked Alex where he is heading. Alex gave him the address. The taxi driver turns on the device that measure the distance and turns it into money, then turn on the GPS and drive the taxi to the destination that Alex has requested. The cabbie was a nice man, didn't talk to Alex, or make jokes about him because he's Hispanic, and Alex didn't even want to talk because he feels pretty nervous. After all, he's going back to the neighbourhood where he got into a fight with a member of that purple clan and almost fought a Mexican who knows karate. This happened a few days ago when Alex and that purple gang messed up the boxes at that Pawn shop, who now went into bankruptcy because the manager of that place was thrown into the ocean by members of the Yakuza clan.

In a few minutes, Alex arrives in the Violet gang area, he pays the taxi driver and heading to the area where are some docile gang members located and who are just drinking some Coca-Cola cans instead of stolen beer or beer made at home. When Alex gets close to the four members who drink their Coca-Cola juices, they look at Alex in wonder, which they tell him.
"Are you Spanish?"
"Yes." says Alex not feeling shameful he admits he is Spanish because the guys who ask him if he is Spanish do look like they are Spanish... or Mexicans. "I want to talk to your leader about something."
"About what, Gaborone?" asks the other gangster who is about to take out the knife from his pocket.
"Um... I need some help to resolve some conflicts with Black Dragons."
"Black Dragons?" asks the guy who asked me if I am Spanish.
"Yes!"
"Alright, Gaborone. Follow me."
That gangster starts to walk to a high house, and Alex follows him because he told him to follow him and he has to obey his orders if he wants to get the help he needs to defeat that street group of gangsters who stole some used tow trucks. When both of them have arrived in front of that big house, the gangster knocks on the door and in just a matter of seconds, the boss of the purple gang has opened the door and looked at Alex.
"Um... Yeah?" asks the leader of the Purple Gang.
"I don't know if you know me, but I am the guy who has come here a few days earlier to take a package back."
"Oh. You are the guy named Alex Rodriguez, right? Jeff has told me about you, but anyway, what are you doing here?"
"I have come here to talk to you about... some... business with Black Dragons."
"Dragons? What they have done again?"
"They have stolen three tow trucks."
"Tow trucks! Outrageous! A perfect disguise for them to stole cars that are parked in non-parking zone or zones with people who have a handicap... Anyway, I'll help you. But first, let me introduce you. I am Graham. And you are Alex, right?"
"Correct."
"Good. Then come in and talk about the strategy we are going to do tonight at the hideout of those Chinese." says Graham, the leader of the purple clan, that one who lets Alex and that gangster enter the house and discuss the strategy they will implement this very evening.
