''[[https://www.fictionpress.com/s/3338283/1/Pinot-Noir Pinot Noir]]'' is an ongoing action/comedy/horror/sci-fi/supernatural story written by Tropers/{{Therealjackieboy}} on Fictionpress.

Pinot Noir is an assassin working in Kaos city, a crime-ridden hellhole that really comes alive on Purge Night, where criminals, gangsters, and other violent miscreants are allowed to commit any sort of debauchery they can. Pinot however, chooses tonight to instead get some rest, as he hasn't been able to get any for a few weeks. But when things get too hectic outside, and Pinot realizes that he can't get any sleep at all, he decides to grab his weapons and trenchcoat and gun down every criminal organization in town in order to acquire the shuteye he needs. It's going to be a rocky night.
