Suddenly: A Snap.

“A Deck of Jokers“
Officer Bullet stood in the rain, smoking a cigarette strong and slow, the way a horse runs. There was an electricity in the air and he was ready to throw the switch and light this town up like it was full of firecrackers. A black cat walked like a slinky across the street. “Look out pussy cat, some serious business is about to hit the fan.” Little did he know just how correct his assessment of this situation was.

Across town, in a totally empty wearhouse, Yurlegh Vladimere was taunting Senator Thomas. “You’re going to see very bad things,” said Yurlegh. “I’m going to make you swallow knifes. Call it Acid Indigestion.” The Senator screamed into pain.
—
Bullet’s phone rang. A shiver ran into his spine. Bullet answered it. It was the government. “Bullet. Senator Thomas has been kidnapped. We suspect terrorism.”
“You suspect utterly and indispensibly wrong. You just shut your dirty mouth. I know who is the perp. I’ll bring back the Senator. Dead or alive.”
—
“So you want to shut down my drug ring. You want to put me into a jail cell. You make me laugh.” Yurlegh laughed like a maniac. “I want to break your leg, Senator. The difference between you and me is that I am powerful and get what I want.” Yurlegh strapped on his brass knuckles and began punching the Senator’s legs as if they had just called him a freak. Suddenly: A Snap. The Senator’s leg was broken. The Senator yelled as blood dripped from his nose and also his mouth.
—
Bullet kicked a hole through the wearhouse door. He poked his head in. “Heeeeere’s Bullet!” Things were definitely about to become interesting. He ran full speed like a cat and karate punched Yurlegh in his jaw. Yurlegh fell to the ground like a potatoe. Bullet put his foot on his throat and turned it to mashed potatos. Yurlegh tried to yell but the only sound to escape was emptyness.
“I see that you broke the Senator’s leg. Now, I get to break your leg, Yurlegh.” The last sound Yurlegh heard in his life was the cracking of his leg bone because then Bullet shot his head.
