Rory walked over to the draped plexiglass box. It was positioned so everyone could view it. Two of Carlo's followers removed the shroud. Rory walked up to the glass. Carlo looked lifeless. He was dressed in a dark suit, dark shirt and a striped tie. A tear came to his eye. He could not believe his leader and friend was gone. Someone quietly walked up behind him.

" I know how you feel Rory". Marcus Perrine grinned. " I miss him too".

" I can't believe he's gone".

Mr Perrine smiled. " We are expecting thousands to view our leader this weekend".

Rory smiled. " As it should be".

" Oh Rory". Marcus's voice hesitated. " One World wants to thank your bank for all of it's continued support".

Rory smiled. " Let me know if you need more help".

" I will". He walked away.

Rory wiped sweat from his brow. It was already a hot day.
