First mission (5)
      I was so sure of if, my eyes and memory never deceives me."that's the guy from the supermarket!" I nudged Conny. "are you sure? ""affirmative. I never forget a face " "alright " he said then got up. "where are you going? ""to get more info ""I'm coming with you " We both left our hideout and walked towards the Excalibur building. We were disguised so we wouldn't have to face the problem of being recognized. We walked towards a group of talking men. "ah excuse me sirs " they turned to look at us. "what! " one of the guys spat. "ah, we were supposed to deliver a package to a Mr Siffredi " Conny said bringing out a parcel. Wow, he can't up with something fast, And Mr Siffredi? It took all the

Excalibur
       After Conny finished giving his report, the others gave theirs too and then we ate dinner. After eating dinner, we deliberated and devised a plan on how to trap our spy then we all went to bed.    The next morning, we were up and ready to put our plan into action. We ate breakfast, which Julian never let's us miss, he says it's bad to start a day on an empty stomach, and then went over the plan again.    The plan was or is for me and Jeff, who is a computer wiz, to get into the warehouse database and get the spy's info. Then we'll interrogate him. Simple, isn't it?Yeah. So right now, me, Jeff and Julian were walking into the warehouse while Nico, Mike, Harry and Conny were in a van across the street.When we entered the building, Jeff and I went straight for the control room while Julian went to the operating area.

The chase
"I-I work for Excalibur! " he confessed."wow, you must like your life so much don't you? " the interrogator asked sarcastically before pulling a pocket knife and inching it closer to Blake's face. Time moved really slow as he did that. "that's enough Edgar..." Nico stopped the interrogator before he could put the blade on poor Blake. "...I think he's had enough " he finished then signalled for a guy to bring him a chair and he sat in front of Blake, eyeball to eyeball. "listen Blake, I need you to tell me everything you've been dishing out to Excalibur " he said to Blake with a dead serious tone. "I-I c-can't tell you " Blake said shaking like a leaf. "I don't think you understand me Blake. I'm going to get it out of you either way. But I'm  offering you the easy way. You tell me on your own or my boys with force it out of you and trust me, they don't take ki

Blake
    Since Blake was caught and made to work for us, it would be unwise to let him stay alone.     After all, we know that Excalibur would definitely want to take him out because he snitched on them, so we thought it would be safer for him if he stayed where we could watch him.And since Edgar and his boys and some other of the gang members refused to take him under their roof, we had no choice but to take him under our roof.Nico said he was actually quite relieved that he ended up under our care because he felt we would protect him better than the others. He also thought it would be a good opportunity for us to keep an eye on him in case he ever thinks about betraying us.Also I asked Harry about the symbol and he confessed that we were really a gang but not the typical gangs out there which deals in drugs, theft and other shits like that. We only deal in making and sell

'kalibri'
     That night, when the others came back, they gave details of the plan to take down Excalibur and we went over the formation over dinner.In two days time, we were going to strike the warehouse that Blake, Conny and I had been scouting. I was nervous as hell. I was going for another mission but this mission was on a whole different level. It was nothing like the scouting missions I'd grown fond of. This was going to involve some bloody scenes.We all went to bed early because we were all going to get the weapons needed for this mission.Yeah, I said we because they included me. I've never touched a gun in my entire life and now they want me to fire one? Though Harry said he was going to teach me how to fire a gun tomorrow.Honestly, I didn't think I was going to need a gun. Afterall, I was going to be on surveillance with Jeff and Blake, but then Harry

Excalibur (2)
The D-day has finally arrived. The day we take down Excalibur for good. The nervousness I had suppressed the whole of yesterday came flooding back.The events of yesterday was so exhilarating that I had almost forgotten the nervousness of today's mission.After picking out our weapons yesterday, Harry and I left to the warehouse. He took me to an abandoned park. He said most of the men in la rinascita came there to practice and train.We practised using empty cans and bottles as targets. It took me four hours of training to be able to hit a target without missing. The first three hours was a complete mess, but I later got the hang of it. I still missed some though but Harry said with more practice I would be better.I was full of energy when he praised me, I felt like I could do this but now I don't feel so good. I don't think I'll be able to shoot another human like myself.<

' DEATH '
By the time the alarm stopped, two of the men in batch A were down while the others took cover with the guards still firing their guns.  Shit, this wasn't how it was supposed to be. No one was supposed to get shot and most especially, it shouldn't be us. This wasn't going to end well. [what was that? ] came Nico's voice. "the four men just opened fire " Blake answered. As strange as this might sound, it's like they knew we were coming. [it looks like our cover has been blown. No more playing nice if we're going to get out of here in one piece. We're going to get our target of it means tearing the while building down. ] Nico said. [are you saying we should kill them? ] Harry asked. [I'm saying take down anything in your way.  EVERYONE MOVE IN! ] As if being controlled, they all got

The mole (1)
After securing death in one if our warehouses, the gang went on an extermination spree. They set all of Excalibur's warehouses on fire, one after the other. But they made sure to shed as little blood as possible.They eliminated the ones who were resistant and spared the ones who weren't by giving them a place in la rinascita. The night sky was filled with smoke from the flames of the burning buildings across the city. A symbol of Excalibur's extinction. There was no way they were going to recover from the amount of damage. Even if some of the men were to form a revolution and avenge their gang, it would be pointless and only lead to them losing their lives.I got home very exhausted, both physically, emotionally and mentally. It had broken my heart when I saw some of Excalibur's men being gunned down because they resisted. I vomited three times due to the gory sight.I know I'd seen thi

The mole (2)
      I hadn't realized that I said it out loud until I felt the gaze of Jeff and Blake."what did you say? " Blake asked"I said what if it was another group who found out about the plan but gave the info to Excalibur?""why would you think that? ""I don't know...maybe because it's so surreal that Excalibur would have another spy "   "that would make more sense. " Nico entered with Harry, Mike and some other guys. I didn't know they were by the door listening. "Excalibur couldn't have had more than one spy or it would have been too suspicious "  he continued, the others thought it through."but which group could have been able to plant a spy so secretly " Jeff asked.After a few minutes of silence as everyone was probably trying to figure out which group it could be, Nico finally spoke up.

The mole (3)
    This new discovery changes everything. We had a mole in our midst. This meant that we were out in the open. We were exposed to our enemies.We may have defeated Excalibur but we were still at a high risk because now we don't have a clear knowledge of who our real enemies are. We were in an open range danger.After the interrogation, Nico ordered a round table meeting with the crème de la crème of the gang. Oddly, I was also invited to the round table meeting. "what if this dork doing here? " Edgar spoke up immediately he saw me entering the room."this dork was partly responsible for saving your ass " Harry butted in."I wasn't talking to you, jeez " he surrendered and went back to minding his business.Harry moved a bit, leaving space for me to sit beside him. I sat down and looked round the room at the faces of the people
