And If I Die

Peeping Tom and I sat in the office of FBI Special Agent in Charge , Frank Cotton...
Agent Cotton put on his glasses and poured over the information that Tom had given him.

"Where did you get all of this information?" he asked.

"I can't tell you that Frank...But you've got to move on this." said Peeping Tom.

"Tom, I know all about you and your ties to the intelligence community...But I have to take this to a judge and this judge has to know that the FBI didn't get this information illegally...I have enough trouble with the information that Kevin has given us on criminal activities...He's listed as "Annonymous informant" in a number of our documents." he laughed.

"Then list me the same...I don't care what you do...but you have to move on this..It's a matter of national security...If you don't...These guys may close up shop and move on." he said.

"Okay...I'll get on the phone now...What about your informant?" asked Agent Cotton.

"I'm afraid he's dead already." Tom lied...

"Dead??Murdered?" asked Agent Cotton..

"One day I'll explain it to you Frank..Please get on this." said Tom.

"Okay..Okay." he said.

"Thank You." said Tom.

"Tom...You owe me one." he said as we left...

"You owe me plenty." said Tom.

Once in the hallway ,I asked Tom-"Now what?"

"I'm used to you calling the shots Kev....If the Feds hit that Bio-Tech lab, chances are...They won't get Hemlock...He's too shady...But I know where he holes up...We can get that bastard and make him pay." said Tom.

''Sounds Personal." I mused.

"I don't like what he did to Shane...and I really don't like having a contract put on me..Hemlock won't stop there..They'll just keep coming until he's rubbed out.." said Tom.

"You know where he is?" I asked.

"I know where he might be... Why don't you call Walter...You're going to need some heavy fire power on this one." said Tom...

"Okay...How bout you?" I asked.

"I'm going home and get my gun..I'll meet you." he said.

"Gun? You??" I said ,almost laughing....

"I was once in the company." he said without smiling...I'd sometimes forget that he was ex-CIA.

II-

Within the next few hours...Agent Cotton and his FBI swat teams and several agents of a joint FBI-DEA-ATF strike force raided the Bio-Tech Organization and impounded tons of sinister and diabolical biological weapons of mass destruction... 31 operatives were arrested and charged with among other things ,Treason, Manufacturing with intent to distribute weapons of mass destruction..drug trafficking and conspiracy.... But the mastermind, Sylvester Hemlock was no where to be found!!!!

Kool Kat and I found his condo... Kool Kat took the hinges off the door and  Kool Kat, and I burst in with guns drawn...but he was gone!...Not a trace of him!...

"Thought we'd do a little advance for you Tom." I said as Peeping Tom walked down the hallway...

"I knew he wouldn't be here..but I had to try....There is another place... Shane told me about this place..It's out near the water..a place where he takes his women.." said Tom.

"Let's go, what are we standing here for?" I said.

III-

"Nice Joint" mused Kool Kat as we came upon Hemlock's little hide away...It was way outside of Philadelphia and surrounded by water....

It looked eerily quiet....Tom had asked me not to call the FBI or any police...I wondered what he had in mind... We parked our car far enough from the area to not arouse any suspicion...

Kool Kat and I walked at staggered steps , following Peeping Tom...

When we got close to the cottage we heard a familiar sound...the sound of lovemaking...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."

"Ouuuuuuuu girl you feel sooo great...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, give me more....moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.."

"Oh..Oh...Oh..Ohhhhhhhhhhhh..ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.."

"Ohh god,I'm losing my mindddd...................."

"Give it to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh good lord...AHHHHHHHH.."

I peered in the window...Hemlock was on his back and a sexy young woman was on top of him under a blanket....

I felt the cold hard steel of a pistol on my neck...

"Kevin" said Kool Kat...A man with a pistol had one aimed at his head too!!..

And Tom had both of his hands up...A third man had him covered!!!

"It's not polite to look into people's windows when they're having private time." said one of the men...

"Gee...I kind of ran out of porn, so I figured this would be a nice alternative." I said.

That remark led to me being smacked across the head with the gun butt...I felt a jolt of excrutiating pain , which sent me to the ground...I got myself together and slowly rose.

''Any more smart remarks shine..?" said the man as I slowly got up.....

I hauled off and punched him so hard, his false teeth flew out of the top of his mouth..I knew I had caught him completely by surprise..He hadn't been expecting that.Me neither! I then kicked him in his groin and pulled him close to me, grabbing his gun..

Kool Kat used his elbow and slammed it into the other man's jaw, snapping his head back and causing him to drop his gun...The man that was holding Tom Hostage fired at me, but his bullets hit and killed the man who had hit me with his gun butt... He didn't get a second chance..Kool Kat drew his .44 magnum and fired once...It was all he needed..The shot went through the man's forehead, killing him instantly!!!

The third man, who had been watching Kool Kat backed up.......

"I think I answered your friend's question." I said...

"You guys are crazy...You'll never get out of here alive...I've got three other guys headed this way.." He said...

We heard three loud  shotgun blasts!! Then we heard the sound of bodies falling....A fourth shotgun blast leveled the last gunman!!!  Kool Kat looked confused... I looked at Tom who smiled and shrugged...

Jack Kildare stepped out of the shadows with a shotgun....Smoke was still coming out of the barrell....

"Jack...You got my message." laughed Tom...

"Oh Yeah.."he said.

Kool Kat still looked surprised...

"Your guys did a good job Tom..." he said...

"Kevin...You and Walter stay out here...This is something we gotta handle." said Tom.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."

"Ouuuuuuuu girl you feel sooo great...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, give me more....moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.."

"Oh..Oh...Oh..Ohhhhhhhhhhhh..ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.."

"Ohh god,I'm losing my mindddd...................."

"Give it to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh good lord...AHHHHHHHH.."

Apparently , Hemlock and the girl had not heard the commotion that was going on outside...They were still in the house on the floor going at it , full steam...

He and Jack Kildare walked inside..

The girl screamed!

"HEYYYYY What's goin on?" came the voice of Hemlock....

"Young Lady...put your clothes on...get out of here and don't come back." said Tom..

"Okay...Okay..Pass me my bra....My dress...My panties....Ohhhhhh." said the woman who came running out barely dressed.

"Kevin...Walter...Take that girl where-ever she wants to go...We got this now." said Tom...

We walked The girl back to our car....I heard a scream-

"Heyyy guys wait! Wait."

"Hello Sylvester, Long time no see, you rotten bastard!" said either Tom or Jack Kildare...

Then we heard two loud shotgun blasts!

"Who was that guy with the shotty Kev?" asked Kool Kat.

"Him? He's a doctor." I said.

"A doctor?? Nahhhhh." said Kool Kat.

"Kools..Do you really want me to answer that?" I asked...

Kool Kat looked at me, smiled and shrugged his shoulders as we drove away!

EPILOUGE:

All 31 of the operatives arrested were convicted and given lengthy prison terms...No trace of Sylvester Hemlock and his bodyguards were ever found!!.  Police and FBI agents found his hideaway away from home...but found no trace of him...No blood, no DNA, no nothing...No doubt Peeping Tom ,his buddy Jack Kildare and his associates "cleaned" things up...

Shane Bradley recovered fully and was released from the hospital...His hair grew back and he gained his weight back...

Robert Foxworth and I sat poolside at another indoor pool and watched as Bonita was given her certificate!!! She had passed her swimming test!!!! Sepia was standing next to her smiling....

A familiar figure walked up to Robert and Me...It was Shane Bradley..

"Heyyyyy look at you!!  You look healthy!" I said laughing and shaking his hand.

"I feel healthy...I don't know how to ever thank you Kevin....You saved my life." he said.

"Tom saved your life...and he uh took care of Hemlock." I said.

"Yeah..I heard...." he laughed...

"So what are you going to do now?" asked Robert Foxworth.

"I'm going to church man....I have a new lease on life and a new reason to be thankful....It's good to be alive.....By the way who are the babes down there in those swimsuits...Yowza!" asked Shane...

"The one with the certificate is Robert's wife ..She's an official swimmer now...and the other one is my wife." I said as Robert smiled broadly...

"Your wives? No kiddin?" said Shane.

"Nope...No kiddin." I said.

"You two should join me in church tonight....You're fortunate too." he said.

"I know...." I said.

And the three of us sat and watched Sepia and Bonita swim the rest of the afternoon..and I thought about how good it was to truly be alive!
