History[]
El Baile de la muerte / Roberta's Blood Trail[]
When Roberta needed a diversion to use against Grey Fox, she requested mercenaries from Bren the Black Death's murder business to act as a distraction. Not wanting to use his own men, Bren hired local mercenaries, including Mikey, to fulfill the request, and Richie Leroy informed the men that they needed to kill some mafia members from the countryside taking refuge in Roanapur. At sunset, at the hotel where Shane Caxton's team was staying, Mikey wondered if the story was true, causing Bugsy Lance to remark that Leroy was always correct. Right before the other mercenaries could break down the door, Caxton's men shot at the men and killed several of them, then detonating Claymore mines to ensure their escape.[1]
In the anime, Mikey exited the building to frantically tell Bugsy that all the mercenaries inside were dead. He followed Bugsy up the stairs to avenge their friends. Preparing his gun, Mikey burst through the door and jumped onto the floor, aiming his pistol at the wall. Seeing that the wall was gone because of the mines, he yelled to Bugsy that the alleged gangsters were gone and expressed bafflement that the walls were destroyed. At that point, another mercenary walked inside the room and accidentally triggered a tripwire, setting off an explosive device in the room that also killed Mikey.[2]
In contrast, in the manga, Mikey followed the surviving mercenaries to track down the soldiers who killed their comrades while Bugsy left to sort things out with Bren. As they walked through the streets, they came across FARC fighters and briefly exchanged gunfire with them until Shenhua and Revy came by and killed all of the men fighting each other.[3]
