January 17th, Liberty City, 8:00 AM
Akara never knew the essence of a perfect family. Much of her life was spent in complete solitude as she conducted her mission during the early stages of civil unrest in Cambodia, when she began to facilitate weapons between Vietnam and Cambodia she was caught and was due for extradition. Her parents did not seek her out, they outright blamed her for all that has befallen them.

Upon her escape she sought refuge on a merchant vessel where she met Tim, they fell madly in love, the Irishman gave her something for which she had lacked her entire life. Belonging.

Now, here in Liberty City she felt a sense of belonging, sitting with the family of the man she loved. His aunt, graciously serving them and supplying them with accomedations. Perhaps she could settle, here in America. Get a career, raise children, and begin a new life. One thing had stood in the way of that, however.

"Hey, I must go to the docks to meet an assosciate." Tim informed her, it was run of the mill merchant jobs, he needed to work around to earn his keep. Akara understood. Soon he would be out upon the sea again, and her, left to her devices in an alien nation.

"I see." She said, bluntly. With the conclusion of a well nourished breakfest he departed to attend to his duties, leaving Akara here with Maureen.

Akara was very shy, not of the woman herself, but of what she may think of Akara. Whom, was a dangerous criminal in a new enviornment. "Miss, would you like to accompany me to the market?" Maureen asked. "I would be honored." Akara complied.

They departed for the market which lied at the very end of the adjacent street. The country was foreign to her, the people looked at her differently, and she had very altrusitic views of the people she happened to observe. They were different. As they reached the conclusion of the curb she followed Maureen into the market.

There was nothing in this store that was in short requirement, everything was supplied and there would be no lack of dynamic assets that were made available.

As they were returning to their condo a vehicle obstructed their view from the house, and out stepped two shady figures. "Maureen, where is our fucking money!" The nearest one screamed. Maureen McReary, dropped the milk and all the assets she had acquired from the humble market.
