[QUOTE="Corinthi, post: 1315670, member: 8272"] [b]Bi Jiao Mao AKA 'Kami'[/b] Where did it all go wrong? Sure, from time to time a man cheat to get ahead, it's the nature of the game. But cheating isn't how a man wins, it's knowing how to play. And I wasn't cheating...that time. As one of the world's best and most successful gamblers, Jiao is on the high rollers list at dozens of Casinos. He's treated to the best food, best rooms, best women, for where he goes, so does the action. Sometimes, too much action. You see, Jiao truly does live in interesting times. He has an uncanny knack for being at the wrong place at the right time. He's been kidnapped, held hostage during a bank robbery, and been attacked by rival players more times than he can count. Left to his own devices, he'd just ride these occasions out and wait for the calvary to arrive, but fate has a peculiar interest in Jiao, and always twists circumstances to that Jiao feels he must get involved. Despite all attempts to poison it with drugs and hard living, Jiao still has a conscience, and cannot abide anyone threatening an innocent, much less harming one. So, Bi Jiao Mao has single handedly foiled all manner of nefarious deed, just because of the innocent people being caught in the way. But that's not really what got Jiao in trouble...not real trouble. You see, for the last month or so, Jiao has been a hunted man. While in Monaco, Jiao was playing some Mah Jong with some rather pleasant fellows with rather deep pockets. He could tell the men were getting frustrated with loosing and was preparing to call it a night, when a pleasant young woman accidently spilled the Saki bottle she was setting before one of his opponents. This 'gentleman' apparently infuriated by her clumsiness, struck her with a powerful backhand, his ring deeply scoring her cheek. Even before the waitress had struck the floor, Jiao had arisen, demanding an apology on behalf of the woman. To make a long story short, 2 minutes later, 2 men were dead, 2 more needed to be hospitalized, and Jiao was holding a towel to a gunshot wound in his side, trying to staunch the bleeding as he fled Monaco. He's since learned that the men he scuffled with were Chinese Tong, one of whom was the son of an underboss, a son who came out of the hospital with a taste for vengeance.
