The Tower of
Bratenahl
NOVEL
By
Michael D. Stevens

Stephen D' Michaels was just released from a maximum security federal prison.  He paid
his debt to society, serving his time for racketeering, organized crime & weaponry.

Stephan was looking forward to returning home,
to his penthouse Tower One in Bratenahl, Ohio.

All he wanted was to live in comfort, harmony and peace
with his many other wealthy neighbors.

Fate would have it otherwise, Stephen’s mercenary fighting experience would be called
in again,
to save civilization.

As radiation hit the earth, his Tower and all its residents were transported back a million
years, into the dinosaur age.

Bratenahl's Tower One residents now had no laws,
no utilities, no cell phones, no police
and only one chance,
one glimmer of hope to survive.

And that hope was, Stephen D’ Michaels!

Just Released

Elkton FCI maximum security Federal Prison, located in Lisbon, Ohio just released a bad ass professional ex-mercenary.  

His name was Stephen D' Michaels.  Convicted through a setup.  An entrapment with his once good, ex-mob friend, Anthony
Delmonte.

Stephen only got two years.  A bargain amount of time, considering the Feds found 126 High-Tech military weapons, along with
over four million rounds of special purpose ammo at his Las Vegas Mansion.  Unfortunately for the Feds, they couldn't prove
Stephen's ownership in Cleveland, Ohio's 6th Circuit Federal Court.

The Fed's search warrant was fucked up.  Wrong name, right address when they tore Stephen's house apart in Las Vegas in
the fall of 1999.  FBI and ATF were both pissed off and swore to "Get" Stephen.  Even if they had to "Stick a 100 Feds up his ass,
to set him up".

The Fed's finally achieved their goal by entrapment.  Entrapment was the Fed's favorite mechanism for convictions.  "Set em up,
to see em fall" was the FBI's new motto for putting "Colorful" US citizens in prisons.  To achieve this, they turned to a high
ranking "Wise guy" named Anthony Delmonte.

Delmonte was a tough Cleveland mobster.  His reputation involved car bombings, torching eyeballs, extortion and whacking off
fingers of anyone against him.  He was a central underworld figure and valuable target of the FBI, DEA and ATF.

Finally, the DEA caught Delmonte with 80 Kilos of pure cocaine in Dripstick Coffee house, located in Cleveland's warehouse
district. With this joy powder, the FBI flipped Delmonte to rat status.  Big rat status, or spend his next 40 years in prison.  
Delmonte hesitated for all of 30 seconds, then chose big rat status.  Eventually to be swallowed up by the Witness Protection
Program to sell used cars in some warm climate, by ratting out his buddies.

Delmonte's new life's mission was to take down fifty high level organized crime figures in the Midwest.  Stephen D' Michael's
was his first targeted victim.

Stephen's bloodline included half, deep Sicilian roots connected with the Ciasulano family out of Palermo, Sicily.  The
Ciasulanos were the original Genovese family, marrying into the Gambino family out of New York during the thirties.

His other half bloodline's DNA was to the Tito Stephenoff family of Bitoli, Yugoslavia.  A Macedonian clan with documented
heritage to Alexander the Great.

Stephen's Great Uncle was Marshall Tito, whom Hitler said were the fiercest fighters the German Army ever encountered.  For
each Macedonian the Germans killed in battle, they lost at least a dozen highly trained German soldiers.  The Macedonian’s
were fierce fighters, the best in the world!

D’ Michael’s had the very best of both the Sicilians and Macedonians.  He was in perfect physical condition.  Extremely
handsome with deep pitch black eyes and naturally gold tinted dark brown hair.  His black eyes could easily make anyone feel
extremely uncomfortable and easily capture the hearts and bodies of any woman or women that he desired.

Stephen was a master negotiator.  Always getting what he wanted.  Even if it meant by force.

Stephen’s early childhood was a breeze through school.  His IQ was measured to be well over 180.  He finished 2 college
Masters Degrees by the time he was 21 years old.  He often argued with his professors on logic and theories successfully.
He proved Einstein’s Theory of Relativity wrong and corrected it.

He was heavily influenced at an early age by his Uncle Gino Ciasulano.   Gino taught the young Stephen how to shoot, clean and
strip guns at the early age of 6 years old.
Gino was a racists who detested blacks, he called them "Monkeys", but Stephen did not adapt or accept any of his uncle’s
racial beliefs.  He figured that everyone’s blood is red on the inside, no matter what the color of the outside skin may be.  He
believed that skin is only a thin membrane of tissue, but red blood runs through everyone’s body.

Stephens’s philosophy was “Equal to Live, Equal to Die”.

Stephen relished all the gun training that Uncle Gino provided.  He learned to devise and reconfigure just about any weapon into
a more lethal version, including its corresponding ammo.  He could turn just about any rifle or handgun into full auto with just a
few well placed paper clips and rubber bands.  All his guns were decorated with flash blinders and custom made silencers.  His
specialty that he always carried two of, were full auto Glocks, Model 27, forty calibers.  

He was also trained on long distance shooting.  Not a hundred or two hundred yards, but targets almost a mile away.  Three
rounds within an eighteen inch circle, at over four thousand feet, won Stephen the title of being one of the top ten long distance
shooters in the world.

Shooting Magazine in 1977, classified Stephen as “Deadly from a mile away”, “One of the best in the world”.  Stephen was fast,
very fast as he pumped three rounds out in three seconds into the eighteen inch target almost a mile away.  His skills were
admired by all experts including “The Agency” or “The Firm”, or “Blackwater” or simply put, the “CIA”.

In 1979, Communism was rapidly spreading through out El Salvador by Castro-Russian appointed leaders.  These leaders
needed “Taken out”, quietly, covertly and discreetly.  Stephen was already in the Caribbean island of St. Maarteen and knew
Central America well, so he was a perfect candidate for such an endeavor.  His code name was Dragon.  A name given to him by
his Godfather at birth.  And a name to be feared by anyone, stepping into his path.

Stephen, being then, very patriotic and a greedy entrepreneur, seized the opportunity to make a quick million bucks.  So, he
recruited 20 other “Mercs” and coordinated a successful effort to wipe out the communistic leaders of El Salvador and its
bordering countries.

Communism was out, and so was Stephen’s after his two year long mission.  The FBI arrested him when he hit Miami with over
a million dollars in diamonds in his possession.  Stephen was put away at a maximum Federal prison for five years because of
little know and relatively unenforced law called “Violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act” whereas any US citizen involved
with changing or interfering with any foreign government faces five years imprisonment.

The CIA did what it does best, deny any such knowledge of such covert activities or as known in CIA lingo a “NOK NOC”, No One
Knows, No One Cares.  Oliver North, personally shredded all evidence of the covert Central American Activity.  So there was no
paper evidence of Stephens accomplishments of patriotic duty.  Just dead Communistic bodies.

Stephen did his time twenty five years ago and he did his time again.  He felt fucked by the US Government for twice in his life.  
He vowed to never to have any friends nor touch a gun again.  He wasn’t going back to prison for anyone or anything!

Instead, he was very happy to be returning to his penthouse tower condo.  His condo has great views of downtown Cleveland
and Lake Erie from within the exclusive plush city of Bratenahl, Ohio.  Bratenahl is a well respected and heavily guarded luxury
community located directly on Lake Erie’s shores, only eight miles from downtown Cleveland.

Stephen wanted simply to join his fat cat named Snowball.  And, get his new business ideas off the ground that he worked on so
diligently while in prison.

Prison enhanced his creative genius to develop a new type of pizza.  He took a prison pizza and put Asiago cheese, which was
smuggled in from Asiago, Italy into the pizza’s center.  He then circled the Asiago cheese with Provolone cheese and then
circled it with Mozzarella cheese.  Adding his own Sicilian sweet sauce, he created a huge prison inmate fan club.  Every Inmate
who tasted it said that it was “The Best Pizza, AnyWhere”.  Even the incarcerated New York Mafioso families Gambino, Gotti,
Bonnano, Zito and Carmine Agnello loved it!

Stephen was now ready and looking forward to rebuilding his financial empire with his new pizza.  He called it “Big City Pizza”.  
A catchy named, also liked by the “Inmate” marketing test group.

He also invented over forty other types of products while he had the “Extra time”.  One of them was a dynamically tactical
aggressive set of kitchen cutlery.  It featured unique angled blades that made cutting or killing up to 30% easier.  Plus, he
designed an ergonomically form fitting handle for it.  

Stephen named it “Dragon Shark Cutlery”,  The power of a Dragon with the teeth of a Shark.

Pizza and inventions weren’t the only thing that people wanted from him.
Stephen was missed by almost half the strippers in Cleveland.  He was a legend among them having taking most of them to bed,
several at a time.  He preferred strippers, often calling them “Perfect Fucking Machines”!

His penthouse, on top of Bratenahl’s Tower One is a pornucopia of pleasure.  The bedroom has pitch black décor, with floor to
ceiling mirrors on all four walls.  Mirrors, reflected his large lean muscles and rock hard body during his many legendary sexual
orgies.

His maid took good care of the only pussy he ever cared about, a big fat 22 pound white Siamese cat with one blue and one
green eye named SnowBall.
During his “Free” federal vacation, Stephen probably paid the highest maintenance for a house cat anywhere in the world.  But
he loved his Snowball.  He told several people “It’s the only pussy, he could ever trust, to not fuck around on him”.
Stephen’s personal limo picked him up at the Elkton, Ohio Federal Maximum Facility promptly at 9am.  He felt good.  He was
going home at last for some much needed sex, female sex, not prison masturbation sex with the JC Penny catalog, turned to
the bras and panties section.

He told the limo driver to head for the Crazy Horse Strip Club.  One of his favorite clubs and a pussy grocery cart.  He was
already a legend there.  And most other Cleveland, Las Vegas and Miami Strip Clubs.

Stephen hit the Crazy Horse at exactly 11am opening as two familiar looking strippers were headed inside.  Still dressed in their
street clothes.

“Hey Ladies” yelled Stephen, “Let’s go back to my condo and fuck”.

One of the strippers named Lexus shouted “Stephen, Stephen is that you”?  Stephen just nodded his head, as Lexus came
running and jumped into his muscle filled arms.
“Wow” said Lexus, “I have missed your body so much, Stephen”, “Hey Heather, let’s go party with Stephen”, “Fuck, the Crazy
Horse, we’d rather fuck Stephen”!

Both strippers jumped into Stephen’s limo and headed back to his Tower One penthouse in Bratenahl and the Tower’s
residents.  Stopping by the Tower’s bar, to say hello to its residents.

Stephen was well known by most of its residents.  He was feared, respected and envied because of his colorful sorted lifestyle.  
He made and lost fortunes throughout his life.  Bankrupted several times, but always managing to emerge from the shit filled
coffins of life, smelling like and looking like a rose.  A rich rose.

When Stephen was rolling in roses.  He shared his wealth generously with strippers.  Banging six to eight of them per week for
his last twenty years.  Envied by Bratenahl’s males and hated by Bratenahl’s married women.  Stephens was probably the
cause of over hundred marriages failing.

Stephen would dispose of his conquered women like dumping garbage.  He rarely invited the same girl or girls back to his
hedonistic den of pleasure.

But, Lexus was different.  A star in his last successful porno flick.  A repeat fuck.  Stephen’s being 2 years down was horny as a
toad, and Lexus’s girlfriend Heather, was a first time fuck for Stephen.

Stephen was looking forward to Sex, Snowball and his Condo.

Bratenahl

Bratenahl, Oho is considered one of the most affluent areas in the USA according to
per capita income.

Even though the city only contains 768 homes.  Each one is estimated to have a net worth of over 18 million dollars.  10 of the
largest mansions in Ohio are located there.

Bratenahl is located eight miles east of Cleveland, Ohio on the shores of Lake Erie.  There are no retail or commercial stores
there of any kind.  The residents opposed the Federal Busing Laws by voting out all of the schools.  They relish their privacy with
no outside interference.

Privacy is provided by a heavily armed police force.  Its Police Chief “Fally” lives for free in the Bratenahl One Tower.  A devote
racist, he and his white police force take great delight in stopping any black person driving through Bratenahl.  Blacks, know to
stay away or risk being arrested on some bullshit charge.

Bratenahl's twin condo towers have a twelve foot iron fence around them.  Its only entrance is through two heavily armed
entrance guards and four roving armed guards with well trained attack dogs.

You don’t get into the Towers unless you’re invited.  And, there are not too many invitations.

Built in 1963, the twin 150 foot towers were built to with stand just about any weather pattern Lake Erie could hurl against them.  
Their two foot concrete walls and one inch plate glass windows are a virtually unbreakable castle fortress.

Tower One also housed a self containing gourmet restaurant, bar, beauty salon and fifty thousand gallon gasoline tanks under
their highly secured underground parking garage.  The garage contains every exotic foreign car made.  Including collectable
cars such as the hearse used in the Godfather movies.  Tower One is a city within a city.  A total self-contained fortress.

The Kings and Royalty of the Middle East often rented mansions or occupied entire floors of the Towers.  They had need of the
nearby Cleveland Clinic’s hospitals heart center.  One of the best in the world if you needed heart work done.
They could put a pig heart into a human and make it work!

Bratenahl Towers and City provided the security they needed to feel safe and ensure their privacy.  Access to their private
Tower floor was by private key only.  Elevators would simply bypass their floor, like it wasn’t even there.

Each Tower housed 190 luxury condos.  Mostly couples or singles.  Tower Two contained conservative retired couples and was
pretty much a filthy rich senior citizen geriatric center.

Tower One was the wild one.  Full of many colorful personalities with the most colorful one being Stephen D’ Michaels.  He was
a Dragon Peacock with a tail of rainbow feathers.

The other residents of Tower One included Federal/State Judges, Lawyers, Entrepreneurs, Insurance Executives, High Class
Hookers and Doctorized Drug Dealers.

Yes, even the decadent rich need their daily drug doses with the illegal drugs.  That do a better curing job than common
prescriptions.

Upstanding citizens during the day.  Godomorra at night.  There is a saying about the Tower’s residents “What happens in
Bratenahl, stays in Bratenahl”.
