This wasn't the time for me to be getting aroused...but I was as aroused as hell just looking at Carlotta in those tights ,putting on that Kevlar vest and that trauma plate, which covered up her boobs..
She saw me looking at her and smiled a little bit...
Tyriq was checking out his wife, Sirena the same way....Smiling sheepishly.......Sirena was blushing like a school girl...She also had on black skintight tights, Kevlar and a trauma plate...
And Poor Jimmy was doing everything he could do...
To keep his mind on the mission at hand and not stare too hard at Angie..
"Bae, when this is over ,you gotta take me to get my hair done.." she said to Jimmy, who just smiled..
Duke was busy kissing his wife, Hazel , who wasn't going...She was staying behind with Selma, who was crying and reading verses from the Bible and speaking in Spanish..
Carlotta said something to her in Spanish and she nodded
and both women hugged each other..
Hop and Sharon and Eddie C.. Who she reluctantly decided to let go with her were listening to last minute instructions from Sissy...
"We were lucky enough to be able to pull up the schematic design of the place...It's an empty Coca Cola bottling plant.. It's perfect for an ambush...No cameras.. Far away from everything...I have a feeling that these guys...Tarantula and Neal know I'm bringing you guys and he's planning to wipe us all out and Nike Johnson too.." said Sissy...
''Don't worry...We have enough firepower and skill to meet these guys if it comes to that." said Sharon..
"Let's Do this.." said Tyriq..
"Good Luck guys...Come back to us." said Hazel...
"That's the plan babes.. I love you...Whatever happens!!!" said Duke, kissing her passionately...
Carlotta was carrying a huge guitar case...
"I take it.. There isn't a guitar in that case."I said...
She smiled at me sweetly....
"Not the kind that plays music..papi" she laughed.. and winked at me alluringly.
Sirena and Angie smiled.
II-
"At the very moment...The man known as Neal was driving a 1958 Thunderbird towards the destination...In the back seat, tied up and gagged was Dutch Van Buren...
Neal laughed ....
"Relax....Dutch...It's all gonna be over in a few minutes.." he laughed and turned on the radio...Another 70's song was playing..."Sugar, Sugar " by the Archies..
Neal bobbed his head to the music.... "Don't you just love this song? Now that was music.." he laughed....
"Look...I don't know nothin...You guys killed Jimmy Newlin...You don't need me.." begged Dutch...
"Oh I need you...I'm no dope...I know your daughter is too smart to come here alone...but she can't bring the police force...So she 's brought her guys...Duke Baylor, Tyriq Pile, Angie Belton...Carlotta Rodriguez-Wallace..Jimmy Barlow...He's cute...Sirena Pile and Tony Hopkins...Another cutie...I know all about her unit...I brought some guys too...More than she brought and they have way more bullets..Can't have those guys hunting me and my employer....We thrive on being anonymous..."he laughed..
"You're going to kill me anyway...I told you I don't know anything."pleaded Dutch...
"I know you don't know anything...You are just a means to an end.." laughed Neal...
"Don't underestimate my daughter...She's smarter than you...She'll kill anything standing with you and then she'll kill you too." said Dutch..
"Ha....I don't think so Dutchie..." laughed Neal.
III-
The lot was empty....The building ,long abandoned and old....You could hear the wind blowing....Duke had gotten Nike Johnson released from custody and had put a Kevlar Vest on him and a trauma plate...He rode in the car with Sissy and Nike ,who was still handcuffed...He had an officer drive the car back to headquarters...
"What's going on? How we gonna get back if you had him drive off with the car?" asked a frightened Nike Johnson..
Duke looked at him funny...Maybe Angie had a point about him being gay...For a big muscular guy, Nike Johnson sure acted effeminate...
Duke just smiled..He said nothing..He, Sissy,Nike and Hop hunkered down in the empty factory...
Carlotta was also with them...She and Duke ran through the entire factory to make sure no one was hiding inside.. and then she stationed herself on the roof with with a modified
AR-15 Assault rifle and sniper scope
Duke and Sissy took cover...along with Nike Johnson...
It wasn't long before The 58 Thunderbird drove up....But it wasn't Neal ,who got out...It was another man..White, Blond haired and with Aviator Sunglasses...He pulled Dutch out of the car...
"Alright Sissy..We have your father..Show me Nike." he said..
Sissy appeared at the doorway with a bullhorn...
"Untie him and let him walk towards me..."she said..
The man complied...
Dutch walked toward Sissy....
He eyed a dumpster ,sitting idly by...
Duke was about to un handcuff Nike Johnson...When Dutch yelled out...
"Siss...It's a trap...IT'S A TRAP!!!! and dove behind the dumpster....
Duke pulled Nike Johnson down...
The man fired three shots that bounced off the dumpster...
Hop, hiding behind the dumpster took aim with his sniper rifle and shot the man dead... and he and Duke rushed...Dutch over to where Duke and Sissy had taken cover....
"Daddy, I'm so glad you're safe.."said Sissy...
"You guys aren't...There is three car loads of gunmen on their way here...We gotta get out of here...That guy was supposed to shoot me in the head and then shoot you..."said Dutch...
''Yeah...Well he failed at that." said Duke.. who loaded his sniper rife...
Carlotta was on the roof with an AR-15 modified sniper rife and binoculars...She called down to Sissy and Duke on her walkie talkie..
"We got Lunch guests...Four SUV's loaded with guys.." she said..
Indeed Four Black SUV's stopped and five men got out of each, each armed with Uzi's....
The leader yelled.."OPEN FIRE!! KILL EM ALL GOTDAMN IT!!!! KILL EM ALL!"
It was indeed a trap...Bullets flew.....
Sissy fired her glock. She hit one man...He fell down and crawled back into one of the vans...dying a few minutes later..
Hop and Duke fired their sniper rifles and hit one man a piece...killing them both....They continued to fire..
But the majority of these guys opened heavy fire with uzis and Sissy, Duke, Hop and Nike Johnson and Dutch were forced to retreat...They ran into the old abandoned building and hunkered down...
Duke and Hop covered them with enough fire to at least back some of the men up until they too could retreat to the safety of the building...
''Oh Hell, We are in it now." exclaimed Dutch..
Carlotta opened up on the roof and let her AR-15 modified sniper rifle fly...
Taking out five men instantly...
One man pointed...
"Sniper....On the roof...Take him outttt!" he said....Before he himself was shot to death....
Carlotta wasn't playing...
Two ducked down and began to run for the back of the abandoned factory...
"She's up there...I see her...Come on..around the back..Stay down."said one.
"I can't get a clear shot." yelled Carlotta...
A giant Food Truck drove up and Blocked their way.... Tyriq, Jimmy and Eddie C. opened up with riot pump shotguns...
and mowed down the two men....after a terrific fire fight..
Another five men were pouring gunfire at Sissy , Hop, Dutch and Duke.. who couldn't get a shot off...
Nike Johnson was screaming like a girl..
"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..WE GONE DIE!!! LAWD HAVE MERCY..WE GONE DIE....ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..WE GONE DIE!!! LAWD HAVE MERCY..WE GONE DIE...."
Tyriq, Jimmy and Eddie C. fired again, killing three more men..
This left seven men , who were scattering.....
It was my turn...I put my foot through the floor and drove the Van through the yard...blocking them...They opened fire on us...but the van was re-inforced with bullet proof steel...We waited until they were about to reload...
Two of them re-loaded and got ready to fire..
Carlotta now had a clear shot and killed both of them....
Angie, Sirena and Sharon opened fire with Sniper rifles and mowed down four of the seven men left....after another terrific fire fight..
This left three men...
"Let's get the hell out of here.." said one man...but as he was headed for the truck..
Carlotta fired again and killed him....The man next to him attempted to fire at Carlotta on the roof.. She returned the fire and missed for the first time...He ran behind some dumpsters...
''Shit, they've got us surrounded..They're all over the place..."he yelled.
But it was Sissy who would have the final shot...She grabbed Duke's sniper rifle and shot the last man...Killing him instantly.....The man that Carlotta missed attempted to run and fire at her on the roof...
"I don't believe this... Neal walked us into a damn trap...."he said as he ran and tried to fire at Carlotta on the roof..
Sissy and Duke and Carlotta lit him up with fire from their Sniper Rifles...He spun like a top and fell to the ground..
"I don't believe this...I've been shot!" he groaned before he fell to the ground..
Very Dead.
Dutch looked around....
"Hollly crap...They're all dead! Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaa!.You guys don't mess around!!!! Shitttttt!" he replied..
"No time for that sir...Let's Get out of here..Just in case some more are on their way." said Duke..
"The Food truck is around back...Let's go" said Hop..
''Come on Daddy..."said Sissy...
''What about me?" asked a frightened Nike Johnson....
"You go back to jail....or would you like to stay here and find out if any more guys are coming?" asked Sissy..
"No..No...Jail is fine for me." said Nike Johnson...
"Let's get out of here." said Dutch...
Carlotta packed up and raced down the stairs....
"Let's get it folks...Here is our transportation" said Duke...
Hop, Sissy, Dutch, Carlotta, Nike Johnson and Duke got in the Food truck, covered by Tyriq, Jimmy and Eddie C.
"Everybody In? Let's hit it" said Eddie C...
The old Food truck roared out the other end of the lot...
''Let's go...They got em.."said Sharon...
''Don't have to tell me twice.."said Angie...
"Me neither...I'm outttt!" said Sirena...
"No Man or in this case...Woman left behind..." I said as We roared out the lot on the other side...
Twenty five men...All later to be identified as paid mercenaries...Killers for hire...Lay dead....in that empty lot...
Blood pouring all over the ground...
Neal drove to the lot...He had been a safe distance away...He had heard the fusilage of gunfire...He was certain Sissy and all of us, including Dutch was dead and he was going to be reunited with his lover...
What he saw....Astounded him...
"I don't believe it...They're all dead...every single one of them...The best money could buy...Trained Killers...What the hell happened..??Where is Nike?" he asked...he ran through the building with his gun drawn....No sign of Nike or Dutch...
"I don't believe it." he exclaimed!
IV-
We had a joyous reunion...News of the shootout and the deaths of 25 mercenaries.. All wanted men was on Television...Scenes of people from the Medical Examiner's Office toting bodies out of that lot and of Detectives taking shell casings and photographing the scene was all over the media...
Edward Terrence watched from his office.....He called Neal immediately....
''What the hell was that? That was our muscle.. All of our muscle...WHAT DID YOU DO?"he bellowed.
"Look, just get out of there.. Get out of town.. There is hell comin down..."Yelled Neal ,who was packing and planning to head for the airport...
Dutch and Selma and their baby were reunited...
Hazel and Duke were kissing so passionately ,I just knew they were headed for their bedroom soon...
So was Hop and Sharon and Jimmy and Angie..
Tyriq smiled and hugged Carlotta...and his wife Sirena, who he kept kissing...
''You worked that sniper rifle like a champ Top..You were the real hero today..." laughed Tyriq..
"I saw you cuttin up girlfriend...You had em runnin..."said Sirena, kissing her friend on the cheek..
"I wasn't going to let them hurt my friends..."said Carlotta..
"You mean your family."said Sissy...
"Amen" said Eddie C. and I...in unison...We all were family...
EPILOUGE-
Nike Johnson was so scared...and so relieved to be alive...He talked long and hard....He told us that he was in fact Gay and that he and Neal had been lovers...And that Neal killed Mikey Lester and Jimmy Newlin and was planning to Kill Edward "Tarantula " Terrence...and take over his lucrative drug business
together.
With Dutch's eyewitness testimony....Sissy,Tyriq, Carlotta and Jimmy and Sharon and 3 of her FBI agents arrested Edward "Tarantula " Terrence...on first degree murder charges....(Odessa Harris) and the kidnapping of Dutch Van Buren and numerous conspiracy charges...He had fled to London, England...Upon learning he was indicted...The five of them had him picked up by Scotland Yard and flew over to London to pick him up...
I had gone with them....It was a nice day trip...I was ecstatic to finally come face to face with the dreaded Tarantula...
"I'm ADA Keith Wallace....I've been waiting a long time to meet you." I said...
He said nothing...He stomped his foot in anger....
"Your trusted Lieutenant Neal Adams murdered your brother and he and Nike Johnson , his lover were planning to kill you and take everything away from you." said Sissy, who wanted him to know that he was betrayed...She wanted him to feel the pain of betrayal.
He was furious to learn he'd been betrayed by Neal Adams...
"That Sissified sissy...He's a dead man..He's dead!" he muttered as they handcuffed him and took him away...
He was sentenced to die by lethal injection!
Two weeks later...Hop and Sirena had the pleasure of putting the handcuffs on Neal Adams...charging him with 2 counts of first degree murder ,(Mikey Lester and Jimmy Newlin) and 12 counts of conspiracy to commit murder....He went underground for a few weeks, but Nike Johnson told us he had people in Patterson and other small hamlets in North Jersey.. and that there is where he might go first to hide out! We found out he was in Newark, New Jersey ,hiding out until things cooled off.
Sissy, Sharon and I also came along with The two of them and 5 New Jersey State policemen, and 6 FBI agents, who caught him in the Airport in Newark, New Jersey with a one way ticket to Spain....
He was heartbroken to know that it was his lover's testimony that was at least partially responsible for him being indicted on the murder charges...
"How could he? we had a future together..." he bemoaned the entire way back to central booking..
"That's the way love goes sugar." said Sirena..
Hop, Sharon,Sissy and I just laughed.
He looked at Sissy...
"So you're Dutch's daughter huh? I heard you guys got Edward in London......Dutch said you were good...Hmmm..He wasn't lying.." he scoffed.
Sissy looked at him and smirked...
"Get him out of my face." she said.
He too was sentenced to die by lethal injection....
Duke and Angie found Nike Johnson, out on bail ,dead of a self inflicted gunshot wound...A suicide...He couldn't live with the streets knowing he was gay and a snitch on top of that...His reputation in tatters and his lover off to jail...It was too much for him...
"Damn...He killed himself....The ironic thing is...We didn't have much on him and he had turned in State's Evidence...He stood a good chance of being released...." said Duke, shaking his head....
"I knew he was gay....I knew it." said Angie....Shaking her head as she watched the body being removed...
Sissy, who wanted to be there when all of the players in this drama was brought to justice was there once again...
''Wow! Looks like this case is finally closed....Let's get out of here guys" she said.
***********************************************************************************
Sissy was happy that her unit had disrupted not one but three major drug rings...and took two very dangerous men off the streets..
Also happy that her father was safe and reunited with his girlfriend and his baby...
"Sis...Thank you and your guys so much...It looked pretty scary there for awhile...I think I'm just gonna play music and stay away from the playas.." said Dutch...
"And you're going to marry me too!"said Selma...
Sissy smiled..
"That's something I can't rescue you from Daddy.." she said laughing...
Eddie C. ,Carlotta and I just laughed at that!
