All I can figure is it's the car they'll use to transport the body?

Here in Tacoma, we play a game called, "Was that a gunshot, fire works, or a car backfiring?"

And that's why other cities call it Ta-compton!

What do you mean other cities? That is what we call it. Link to Tacompton Files.

Might be a reference to human trafficking? Hybrid, pretty, so on? I really dunno, rhats a bit of a miss

Given that it’s the mafia I think it’s meant to be a gunshot, but the main character thinks it’s a car

The writing prompt said Underworld (capitalised) and that it was an established universe. I wasn’t sure what they were referring to so I thought I might as well chuck in some vampires and werewolves. Hybrid would be some monster mix. Also the hairy problems.

ooh

I think the Underworld was just a criminal underworld, but that's way cooler

I thought the car backfire was a gun sound, honestly

I thought maybe it was a gun thing. She said dealership but didn't say car dealership

[EU] You, an ordinary person with a boring job, marry the love of your life... and unknowingly into a big crime family. You don't notice because you've always been socially awkward. Because of your apparently blasé attitude to tense situations, you've developed a reputation in the Underworld
