Kaian: *sitting at his desk* You know Reggie, I think I need to start recruiting new people.

Reggie: *watering the plants in the room* Huh? Oh…yeah.

Kaian: A force of ten just isn’t enough…that and I think I need another personal assistant.

Reggie: Go for it, wait what?

Kaian: I mean…you’re good and all but I can’t expect you to do everything.

Reggie: True…but who else could there be?

Kaian: I don’t know. *looks at a security camera feed* Someone’s here, go take care of it Reggie.

Reggie: Yes. *puts watering can down and leaves the room*

*downstairs*

Person: Hello? Anyone here?

Reggie: *walks in and goes over to him* What can I help you with?

Person: Well…I’d like to…

Reggie: Place a hit? Need help? Financial troubles? What?

Person: Well…I want to join your force.

Reggie: *takes off shades and looks at him* Excuse me? Just who the HELL do you think you are?

Person: I mean…I think I can do it you know.

Reggie: Hmm…wait here. *leaves*

*later*

Reggie: *returns* You. *points to the person* Come with me. *leaves again*

Person: *follows*

*later again*

Reggie: *opens Kaian’s office door and leads the person inside*

Kaian: *watches as he sits down in front of him* Hmm…alright, I hear you want to join yes?

Person: Yeah.

Kaian: Okay, and what makes you think I’ll let you?

Person: Well… *explains why*

Kaian: Mm hm…I see. *brings out a paper* Here, fill this out and we’ll take it from there.

Person: *takes out pen and starts writing*

Reggie: *goes over and whispers into Kaian’s ear* What if this guy is a cop?

Kaian: I don’t think he would be, and even if it is, trust me I can bribe my way out of the police.

Reggie: Hmm…

Person: *puts pen away and gives paper back to Kaian*

Kaian: *takes it and reads it* …Interesting…yes indeed. *looks up at him* Reinhard Ethelstan? German. You seem promising judging on what you put down. *holds out hand* Congratulations, you’re my second personal assistant.

Reinhard and Reggie: WHAT?!

Reggie: I worked my ass off to be your assistant! Now you’re just gonna let Kraut here get to my spot!?

Kaian: Now Reggie, there’s no need for racial slurs, and you should know that I was looking for a new assistant.

Reggie: Bullshit. *goes to Reinhard and yanks on the collar of his shirt* Don’t you DARE think you are better than me in ANY way. *pushes him back and storms out the office*

Reinhard: *watches him leave then looks back at Kaian* He seems nice.

Kaian: I think you’ll learn to like him soon enough.

Reinhard: Hmm…maybe. *stands up*

Kaian: We’ll see what you are capable of later.

Reinhard: Fair enough. *leaves*

Kaian: *watches him close the door* Great. What have I done?

*next day*

Reinhard: *sitting at a table writing when a shadow blocks his light* … *looks up* Excuse me, you appear to be in my light.

Reggie: *puts both hands on the table and gets up in his face* Your light? This light was mine before you showed up, why don’t you just go back to Germany?

Reinhard: …I don’t have the money.

Reggie: *glares* You win this time. *leaves*

Reinhard: …Maybe I should try being his friend for a while…maybe he’ll cool off. *gets up*

*later*

Reggie: *angrily taking measurements for curtains* Stupid…thinks he can just come and steal my spotlight huh?

Reinhard: *knocks on the open door* Ahem! Reggie is it?

Reggie: *looks behind him* What do you want?

Reinhard: Well…I want to buy you a drink, what do you say?

Reggie: *jumps off ladder and walks over to him* Oh, so you think you can just buy me over with cheap liquor? Is that right? *pulls on his collar again* KRAUT?!

Reinhard: Hey! Back off, I’m just trying to do something for you.

Reggie: *pushes him back and crosses his arms* Well I only need one thing from you, I need you to get the fuck out of my sight.

Reinhard: Grr… *turns around* …commie.

Reggie: What?

Reinhard: *turns around again* You heard me!

Reggie: You wanna say that again?

Reinhard: *glares at him*

Reggie: *glares back*

Kaian: *walks in reading a paper* Hey Reggie I noticed that- *looks up* What are you doing?

Reggie: *looks at Kaian* I don’t know! Why don’t you ask your NEW assistant?! HUH?! *storms out*

Reinhard: Alright that’s it, I tried being nice to him I really did, but now he got me mad. *sticks head out of the office* You hear me Reggie!? You’ve got yourself an enemy!

Slightly distant voice: I don’t give a damn!

Reinhard: *looks at Kaian* What’s his problem?

Kaian: Don’t worry, he’s just mad about me letting you be my second personal assistant without doing anything, he’ll learn to respect you soon. *about to leave* And I expect you to do the same. *leaves*

Reinhard: *grinds teeth* It’s hard to respect someone you hate.

*later again*

Reggie: *sitting at a table, drunk*

Reinhard: *comes in the bar and sees him* There you are. *goes over to him* Hey…Reggie.

Reggie: Huh? … *looks up at him* You…waddya want?

Reinhard: I just wanted to say…I am, and always will be better than you.

Reggie: What? *gets up* You wanna say that again? BITCH!?

Reinhard: I am…and ALWAYS will be better than you.

Reggie: That’s it buddy you messed with the wrong Ruska, you’re dead. *throws a pathetic punch and falls to the ground* You’re gonna regret ever crossing paths with me! *gets up but gets pushed to the ground again*

Reinhard: What’s wrong Reggie? *smiles* Can’t keep your balance? Typical Russian eh? Gettin’ smashed off the potato juice. *bends over and looks him in the eye* Your time as Kaian’s right hand man is up, time to make way for someone better. *pushes him over again and leaves*

Reggie: *gets up again* You’re dead Reinhard! You’re fucking dead! *falls over again* I’ll get you! I was here first! I have more experience than you! I’m better! You…prick! *stares at the ceiling* …I’ll drag this out for as long as it takes…even if it takes the rest of my life!
