Chapter 20
-:- CHAOS -:-
Wings, Graham and Tank are bickering about where to go next. There are way too many assholes that were mixed up with this bullshit Tizwald was involved in. I know politicians can be liars, but to be involved in thefts of the kind we are uncovering is just not our thing to get involved in. I need to contact Pres because I reckon this would best be uncovered by the FBI.
Stepping away from Wings who is arguing with Graham, I make the call to Axel. “Pres, there is way too much shit going on with this Tizwald crap. We are heading out now to take out another one or two assholes, but there is a fuck of a lot that needs looking into. I think we’d be better off letting Forest or Aaron contact one of their FBI buddies.”
I hear Axel sigh before he responds. “Okay, I’ll get Forest to contact you, but don’t get into trouble. If we are involving the Feds, then we need to keep our noses clean. Don’t give them anything they can come at you for.”
“We are heading to take out one or two assholes, then we’ll call it quits. Any news on Victoria?”
Axel chuckles, “Oh yeah. Those four have taken out the sniper that murdered Bethy, plus Tizwald and four of his bodyguards.Winter and Star went on a terminator hunt I’m sure, but Jack is with them. Oh, and apparently Meat has met up with them. Now isn’t that a surprise!”
“Shit, that means they could get up to all sorts of things,” rubbing the back of my neck while I consider how much trouble he can get them into.
“I’ve spoken with Jack, and he told me Meat and Star have left them, so it’s only Winter, Victoria and himself at this point.”
“Okay, Pres, I’m going to try contacting Victoria again. So far she has answered no calls.”
Chuckling, Axel tells me she has her phone switched off. Specs has been trying to contact or track them through their phones. All three have them switched off so nobody can call them out for their bullshit.
“Target isn’t worried about Winter, Chaos. He said no matter what is thrown at them she can handle it,” Axel tells me, to keep me calm I’m sure, but I’m thinking it may not be working. “Chaos, Winter will contact Target if she needs help. Can you guess where they are heading next?”
“No, there are too many involved in this money laundering scheme they have going. I reckon they have cartel or mafia links, and that’s why I would rather we back off.” I rub my neck again, feeling the tension coiling.
“Leave it with me, Chaos. I’ll speak with Forest and I’ll call you as soon as I have news. DO…NOT… and I mean do not, get caught doing shit. I don’t want any of us ending up being arrested.”
“You know we have Graham with us, don’t you?” I ask.
“Do you? No, I didn’t know,” Axel chuckles. “That could make it interesting. I wonder if Nell knows? Or did they sneak out when she had her back turned.”
“I haven’t asked, but I will now that you’ve mentioned it.” Looking up, I can see Graham, Tank, and Richie. Graham is excited. Tank and Richie however are standing cool as you like. I know under all that calm are two lethal men who will do whatever is needed, when it’s needed.
“Do you think we should head back, or eliminate the ones we are after that are near our current position?”
“If you are near and can do what’s needed without getting caught or leaving any evidence then okay, but I want you back here in the next three days. Oh, Target said don’t worry about your hours at the range, he’s got it covered. He has, however, given Winter a deadline as he’s working with her clients as well as his own. Leon is working with your clients, but he’s built up a nice following himself so you need to get back to work.” Axel, I know is giving us space, but I need to get to my woman and get her back home.
Cutting the call, I walk back and sit next to Dice. “Axel is giving us a little time to get the job done and back to the club. Colton, Sting and Brag, you three take Philipson. Wings, Clay and Reuse, you three go after Stockdale. Dice and I will go after Winter, Victoria and Jack. Graham, you take your two with you and take out Scarrow and Anderson.”
Graham replies, “Hey, I was going to meet up with Victoria.”
“No, you are not. I’m going after my woman, and you stay the fuck away from her.”
“Oh, it’s like that is it?” Graham smirks. Tank and Richie are watching the heated conversation with more than a small amount of interest. They also have shit-eating grins on their faces.
“Yeah, it’s like that. Stay the fuck away from my woman or I’ll do a deal with Nell to feed you to Jaws.”
Graham laughs, “Oh, yeah, I’m sure my sister will do that!”
“Yeah, I would if you cause too much trouble...”
We all spin around and see Nell standing on one side, hands on her hips and giving Graham a deadly look. Stepping forward, she doesn’t have time to say anything more before Graham is on her, picking her up and swirling her around, laughing like an idiot all the while.
We quickly get into our group, Nell joining Graham's. Receiving nods from everyone, we split up and head out on our allocated missions. It’s quiet in the truck with only myself and Dice, but if I’m being honest, it’s nice after the mayhem that Graham and Wings seem to cause. They have both been well-behaved so far at least, but you can feel the eruption that is about to happen.
“You know they are probably going to do something that could get them caught don’t you? Unless Nell keeps them under the thumb,” Dice asks.
Chuckling I reply, “Yeah, more than likely, but we are not involved so we are for once doing good. I’m surprised Nell has turned up.”
