Medusa's Cerulean Hamlet

Medusa's Cerulean Hamlet

A Story by Abishai100
"

The snake-deity of the underworld allies with a Chicago vigilante for a special 'figurative' handshake for Earth's hospitality-word to promise/record.

"
A 'mod' urban vigilantism 'mythology-yarn' inspired (very loosely) by Max Payne (Mark Wahlberg), which I think you'll like (and thanks for reading), 
DISCLAIMER: The images used herein offer no commercial/legal ties to any representative person(s)/body and therefore comprise a purely 'personal' exercise in modern social mythology/hyperbole (for 'open' designs).

Amlan Satan was a cool-customer in the world of diamond-sales and insurance intelligence in the challenged Windy-City (Chicago) of Bulls-Bears markets where sports-media would twist with gem-ad hyperbole and perhaps for commerce/media culture confidence in the post-9/11 era, which would draw commentary from investors/intelligentsia/citizenry (wow).



However, he was bloody-murdered after walking-out of a Chicago entertainment-street area on Valentine's Day in the Homeland (America), and his body (alongside his lovely date's!) was dumped unceremoniously into the river. This was an American tragedy, of dark/mystery proportion. Was his death tied to some diamond-underground smugglers conspiracy creating a sad view of Chicago's handshake(s)?



MEDUSA: Wake, Earth-prince, for I shall restore your spirit for vigilantism.
SATAN: Well, either I'm a 'ghost' (after all!), or I'm dreaming (somehow!).
MEDUSA: You were bloody-murdered, Earth-prince, but I will be your ally.
SATAN: Is this real...some kind of underworld Crusade...I'm seeing?
MEDUSA: Excellence, Mr. Satan; I shall give you a resurrected energizer.
SATAN: Wow; if I was killed, dishonorably, I'd have to keep this all secret.
MEDUSA: Yeah; I'd refrain from social-media 'posts' for art-handshakes.



Well, Satan emerged again in Chicago as a 'raven' of vigilantism, now masked/anonymous, and wielding a toy silencer-gun (toy) from the East converted ('honorably') into an 'acid-gun' (HCL), which would be used to drive the late-hours vans of the gem-underground 'ring' in the Windy-City driven by the mad-minions of the Brussels-sprouting baron Ion.

SATAN: So far, acid yields much road-wrecks drawing Ion-suspicion for insurance.
MEDUSA: Excellence; seems we've become 'faeries' of the Chicago-Hamlet.
SATAN: Excellence, Medusa.



With this newfound sense of spirit/vengeance for Chicago's high-art storyboards for vigilantism and retribution, the Earth-prince (Amlan Satan) calculated that he'd become a resurrected 'raven' of examination(s), and Medusa his faerie-muse and spirit-counselor, but would he share this Selfie-friendly tale with Chicago's 'workers' of the gem-matrix to create insurance-journals worth the 'modern' writing?



BARON ION: I dunno who this Medusa/Satan pairing praises, but they're death!
ASSOCIATE: No fear, Lord Baron Ion; this is certainly 'cinematics' friendly.
BARON ION: I dunno who cares this Medusa/Satan pairing shocks, but they're drowning!
ASSOCIATE: We'll have 'patrols' of the city and corrupt-cops seek the angels.
BARON ION: Excellence (for this Windy-City)!



Well, despite the 'black hand' of the sinister and hideous Baron (Ion) of the Windy-City of Bulls-Bears markets paranoia in the post-9/11 era Homeland, the wonders-rich vigilante pairing of Medusa (underworld snake-deity of hypnosis/focus) and 'Prince' Amlan Satan (resurrected 'raven' of Chicago's handshake) managed to outmatch the 'matrix' of rose-red darkness created by bloody-diamond ratings and super-imposed the criminally-insane 'heat' with a cool social-media culture friendly 'market-view' of sportsmanship-treasure/imagery (for a collector's handshake favoring Earth's youthful capitalism...and 'American' innocence). Was this (all) a tall-tale worth a 'review' for modern civilization's rich head-bazaar (for all)?
