Mission Statement

The Story

For those of you who don't know. You all just F'ed around and found out about my main man Dunkin Skids. Part Rat. Part Cat and all dog when it comes to survival. Dunkin Skids is on a mission. He is a man with a plan. He wants to leave the insidious world of drug pushing behind so, he can retrieve his daughter who was seized by the state because of his neglect. Dunkin put his addiction to heroin and his illegal practices over his responsibilities as a father. However, there are forces at work that will do their best to prevent that from happening. One of them is Dunkin's boss. "Siamese Jimbo" One of the biggest drug lords in "Goddamn City." He firmly believes Dunkin is seventy percent responsible for his products success due to the Skid man's hustle. He considers Dunkin to be his best man and refuses to lose him. He devises a plan to get Dunkin high on a new supply of heroin he just manufactured. The plan works. Dunkin is so high from the drug that he temporarily loses his mind. The Skid-Man ends up in the city's psych ward called "Eco-Stuy." That is the facility's professional name. However, to the patients who reside there. The facility has another name. One that is more infamous and sends chills up the spine of anyone that dares mention it. "Mount Saint What the Fuck." The patients call it that because it's just like "Goddamn City." When you see it. All you can say is "What the Fuck?!" Dunkin is sent to the facility against his will and his daughter is taken into custody by the state. The nightmare Dunkin always feared is now a reality. Now Dunkin is in a race against time to prove to his doctors that he is both sober and responsible enough to be released from the hospital and retrieve Kim before "Goddamn City" and all its evils can claim her. The quest will not be an easy one. Dunkin will have to come to terms with his hard past of being abandoned by his father due to his physical abnormality (his two tails). The product of being a mixed-race child. Dunkin must also learn to overcome the temptations of easy money and Siamese Jimbo's new product "The Dragon." Drugs and crime are the battlefields. Sobriety and the safety of his daughter are the prize. Dunkin Skids and his story has been with me for thirteen years. Now I have the skill set to tell it in a manner that is both entertaining and pleasing to the eye. I look forward to sharing it with you and the world once its completed. Thank you all for your support.
