The FIB’s             The Federal Investigation Bureau

In the early hours of the morning (1 o-clock) on a quiet, dark, windy night, James is walking down an alley when he does not realize the unfortunate events to come.  Suddenly he is struck on the back of the head and wakes up to a mysterious room with a dim light with no chance of escape.
Antonio De Vito, a boss of a very well know casino and part of the Mafia is angry about debts that haven’t been paid off by James, and Tony isn't happy about it.
