"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?

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.

"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
Time to grow 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

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

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.<
Time to grow ' 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

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

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.

"Cole! ""Cole?! ""Cupcake?! "His teammates caught up to him just as he rounded the corner where they were. They rushed to his side asking if he was okay, but he was too shaken to make out anything they were saying, so he just stared at them blankly.Oscar had timed the whole thing perfectly. He knew the time Cole's teammates would get to the nearest area closest to his hideout. He had watched their every step from the moment he had their location pinned. It was easier also to get Cole there since he was still in the shock phase.They hurriedly moved him to the car, worry evident in their tense bodies. They worried that something terrible might wrong with their friend.The ride back to the house was relatively fast. By the time they got to the house Nico was already there with a team of medics.Conny and Jeff were the first to come out of the car with Cole on their arms. They dragged a lifel
Game Plan (1)
After Oscar dropped the bomb on me, he opt and left the dinning area leaving me to deal with the gravity of the revelation. Back at my holding room, I sat on my bed still holding the pictures and staring at the images as if staring at them much longer would make the images change. In the picture, Harry wore his favorite black leather biker jacket. It was the first thing I recognized. The jacket had a symbol of a hand with way too many fingers spreading out making it look like a tree. I remembered asking Harry what that symbol meant and him telling me in one word 'FREEDOM '. Thoughts keep roaming through my head as I fall into a very restless sleep, my exhaustion taking over completely. The next morning, I'm woken up by the same guard from yesterday. "I'm to get you ready for breakfast " he says simply and moves to pull up the cutains I didn't even realize was there in the first place. Come to think of it, it doesn't even feel like I'm a prisoner. I'm definitely not treated

"Well Cole, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Oscar " he raised his hands towards me, for a handshake....a handshake! But whatever, I took his hands."Okay, back to business.... " he retracted his hand."....tell me Cole, what were you and your crew doing in that warehouse? "Was he talking about that abandoned building we were supposed to meet our supposed client. Wait!....was he the client we were supposed to meet?"Cole! I asked a question " I felt my throat slowly getting dry again,"We were supposed to meet a client there " I answered."What client? " he asked"We were meant to deliver weapons to him and collect payment....... ""And? ""It was supposed to be a simple delivery.....just one simple transaction. But they double crossed us. Those bastard double crossed us " I spoke in whispers as I reminisce the event in my head. I felt my head began to throb due to the me

The pain at the back of my head jolted me out of my subconsciousness. Instant panic flooded me as I realized I was in an unfamiliar surrounding, my arms and legs tied to the chair I was placed in. I remembered being in a wild car chase with whoever wanted us dead. I remembered almost reaching the crossroad and the unknown car slamming into ours, then me blacking out. Oh gosh, we've been abducted. My greatest fear now coming into play, and maybe even worse....me not making it out alive. As futile as it might seem, I did what any normal person in my shoes would have done, and that was........to scream for help. "h-help! " I screamed as loud as my lungs could allow "somebody help me! " I screamed again, but my voiced echoed back at me. I scanned the room one last time before deciding to give my voice one final trial.
Second mission (3)
Edgar.......... I have to go on a mission where I could probably loose my life and Nico is choosing Edgar to protect me? Now I'm wishing I had taken the self defense lessons seriously.I can understand now why Julian and the rest were angry, how could Nico have even taught of something like that. Practically everyone knows how much Edgar hates my guts...the guy even hates my entire existence, and I have to go with him? I should probably just kill myself right now and get it over with."I think Nico is going nuts " Blake immediately we entered our house"Ya think?....dude has gone nuts already!

Their fault though, they didn't have to keep rubbing it on my face.I dragged myself lazily up the s
Second mission (2)
Last night was the first time I had ever seen Julian snap. He was always more of the calm and collected one amongst all of us. That led me thinking that whatever had made him snap like that, definitely wasn't good. And just like Nico had said, the production of the M-16 kicked off. Julian was still pissed off by the recklessness of Nico but there was only much he could do about it since he was just Nico's second in command. The client who goes by the name of Vermont, ordered for 500 pieces of M-16. If I was suspicious before as to why he needed a prototype weapon that hasn't completely been tested. I was now more suspicious that he ordered for that much. Don't get me wrong, him ordering that much ammunition was good business since he was paying a really hefty price. I was only questioning why he would want an ammunition that was still under examination.<
Second mission (1)
Three weeks later, everyone is slowly recovering from all the previous events and operations continued. I also resumed my work at the warehouse against Harry's protest.After the last attack where I was almost killed, Harry was against me doing the deliveries. Even Conny, Mike and Jeff agreed too but Nico was not having any of it. And since he was the boss, there was no going against him. Even though Harry sometimes threw tantrums, Nico still ignored him.I sat down in the storage room watching some workers prepare the weapons I was to deliver later in the afternoon. This was going to be my fifth delivery in the past three weeks.The first delivery was two days after the break, I was completely surprised that there was going to anyone who wanted to deal with La rinascita but I guess Nico really had some good connections with his clients. And to be honest, I was scared of going to make the delivery. I was scared

With those last words of Nico, we left a shocked Laburnum with a lifeless Kelvin, then we all headed back to our base.We already found the person or persons behind the mask, but does that mean all these madness is coming to an end? I seriously hope it is.When we got back to the base, Nico called for a meeting."well, it's been one hell of a week... we finally caught our mole, who sadly passed away this morning...." he began as everyone sat in their seats, somber."but the good news is, we finally know who's behind all this...now we know where exactly we are supposed to strike..." there were nodding of heads to signify agreement."now, we're all going to go home for a long rest...we all deserve it after all the madness that's been going on...
