The casino was thriving as it would have done any other day. There were people who had dressed up to the very best, throwing their money around across the tables with smiles on their faces. At the same time, there were many VIP members who were enjoying their time as they continued to place bet after bet.
Some of the guests had come from Tier-1 cities after hearing about the luxury gambling establishment from their friends, deciding to pay Notsburg a visit due to all the good things they heard. There were also many scouts from other gangs among the guests, having come here since they didn't believe that a Tier-2 gang with no backers could survive on their own. They were there to check out if some other Tier-1 gang was secretly backing the Scatterbugs, and if not finding out what it would take to convince Slith to work with their group.
As bets were being made, every member of staff was made aware of something as they all had received messages through their earpieces.
"I'm sorry, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, the game right now will be put on hold." One of the dealers said at his table.
"What?! You can't do this! I was on a run! Do you want me to tell all my friends that your casino is just a damn con?!" One of the larger men with a cigar in his mouth shouted. Soon though, the man could hear that the same sentence was being used by all of the others that were on the shop floor.
"Let us apologize once more for this. As compensation, you will receive double the amount of chips the next time you cash in." The dealer stated.
This apology was easily accepted by the big spenders calming them down slightly. For the casino, it didn't matter anyway because it knew all the extra money they had just given out would be returned to them.
After all, the guards and dealers had told the civilians of the special circumstances. They were wondering, what was to happen next, and some had gotten up to leave.
"Sorry, sir, but it might be best if you stay inside the establishment." The dealer started with his hand out, and a big smile on his face. "You see, the reason we have had to pause for a short while is due to some uninvited guests."
The workers started to move to the front entrance of the casino. There were three large swivel doors close to each other, yet No one had entered the place for a while. The casino workers asked all the guests to move behind them, take cover or stand by the side. They then stood there pulling out their batons, knives, and other weapons as they waited for what was to come. The tension was high in the room as only whispers were being heard between guests as they wondered what was going on.
"Should one of us head outside, and see what's going on?" One of the workers asked their supervisor.
They had all received the same message to be ready for an attack, but waiting around like this wasn't in their nature, which was why one of the workers had decided to move forward and head towards the doors.
As he got closer, his eyes widened as he could see something through the glass, he quickly turned around and started to run but it was too late. The glass behind him smashes, along with the entirety of the doors.
A large object smashed through the building, and it collided with the man. It carried forward, landing on a few of the other guards as well. The object eventually stopped, turning out to be a car. What's more, the doors had been fully unhinged by the vehicle. The workers quickly ran to help their colleagues, who had been flattened by the car.
"There's no one inside!" One of them shouted.
"That's impossible! Are you saying that a ghost drove that thing in here?"
Eventually, with multiple of the workers using all their strength they were able to push the car so it was up on its side. They pulled their injured colleagues out from underneath the car as quickly as they could.
Now with the car on its side they were able to take a closer look at it, and could see that there were two deep claw marks on the side, and hand imprints. They looked back into the direction the car had entered from, it was on its side, not from the front or back.
"The car… it was thrown in." One of them deduced, and the sound of footsteps crushing glass could be heard. When the workers turned their heads, they could see a man in a black and gold wolf mask, in a uniform of the same color scheme.
"Tell your damn bosses, that the Howlers from Slough are here." Gary demanded.
As he stood there, there was a presence of Gary's back, his nails were sharpened letting the others know that he was an Altered. It was quite the entrance and it had an effect that the others weren't so sure was intentional or not, but seeing a car hauled into the casino and the Werewolf releasing his bloodlust made for a scary scene.
"Who the hell do you think you are? Just wait until our boss puts an outsider like you into your place!" One of the workers shouted as he ran forward with a baton. "Everyone who was crazy enough to attack us left in a body bag."
Seeing the man come towards him, Gary tensed his fist, and threw it out, crashing into the baton, bending it and hitting the man right in the face. His whole body was lifted off the ground and spun in the air, causing him to collapse. One single punch was all it took to make a grown man unable to move.
"The rest of the Howlers and I are not leaving this place until we get what we want…and unfortunately for you I want blood.." Gary growled as his eyes turned red.
