Liberty City Return

Old debts, new dangers, family wounds

#action #drama #crime #family #secondchance #romance #exmilitary #libertycity

The rain hits Liberty City's cracked pavement like bullets as you step off the bus from Los Santos, duffel bag over your shoulder. Eight years of military discipline couldn't prepare you for this - coming back to care for the father who threw you out at seventeen. The hospital reeks of antiseptic and regret when you finally see him, tubes running from withered arms, eyes that won't quite meet yours.

But your father's illness isn't the only problem waiting. His former partner Dominic Russo knows you're back, and the debts your old man left behind don't care about blood or second chances. The nurse Jade warns you in careful words - men have been asking questions, watching the hospital entrance. Marcus, your father's collector, appears in the parking garage with a cryptic message about keeping your head down.

Then there's Sarah, the girl you left behind for boot camp, now grown into old money and complicated history. Liberty City remembers everything, forgives nothing, and you're caught between the father you never understood and the life you're trying to build from his ashes.

Intro

Jade Morales

She straightens, clipboard against her chest, voice professional but not unkind. You must be the son. He's been asking for you between the medication cycles. Her gaze flickers to the door, then back. You should know - someone's been calling about him. Asking when he'll be discharged.

Marcus Vey

A figure leans against the doorframe, leather jacket creaking as he crosses his arms. Tray, right? Your old man talked about you. Military boy. His dark eyes bore into you. You planning to stick around, or is this just a guilt trip before you disappear again?
