Chapter Six

Since they didn’t make it to The Four Kings the night they went to Pago’s, and since finding and killing them niggas was still the only plan, Black, Rain and Jackie arrived at The Four Kings.

They hadn’t been there long enough to have a look around before they were approached by Ayisha. She told Black that while she was in the gambling room not long ago, she and Monique overheard two men talking about Mobley doing a deal to buy guns that night at the Red Hook Terminal in Brooklyn.

“Are they still here?” Rain wanted to know.

“They left about five minutes ago,” Ayisha informed.

“Have you ever seen them here before?” Black asked.

“They’ve been here a few times,” Monique said. “But I can’t say for sure whether they’re with Mobley.”

“I know the one guy used to come here with Evander all the time,” Ayisha said.

“Every inch of this place is covered by cameras,” Pills began. “There isn’t a blind spot in here. If they were here, we got them,” he said and started walking toward the office.

“Let’s go see what he got,” Black said and followed Pills to the office with Rain, Jackie, Ayisha and Monique trailing behind them.

When they got to the office, Pills went to the surveillance computers and pulled up the footage of the gambling room.

“How long ago was that?” Pills asked.

“I guess about ten minutes now,” Ayisha said and Monique nodded in agreement.

All stood behind Pills, looking over his shoulder reviewing footage, until Monique shouted, “Wait!”

Both she and Ayisha leaned forward and took a closer look. “That’s them,” Monique said.

“Ayisha?” Black asked.

“Definitely,” she said and took the mouse from Pills. “And if you look at them from this angle …” Ayisha paused and then pointed at the screen. “There.”

“That’s how close we were to them,” Monique said of the image of the two men sitting at a table and her and Monique standing behind them.”

“That’s Icon and that one is Bowie,” Pills said and leaned back. “Bowie used to come up here with Evander and Big Frank. I know Icon just got outta jail a few days ago. I can’t say for sure if he was with them or not.”

“Thank you,” Black said and went to sit down at the desk.

“We gonna need the room,” Rain said and sat down at the monitor, while Jackie followed Pills, Ayisha and Monique to the door and locked it behind them.

“Rain?” Black asked.

“I don’t like it.”

“Jackie?”

“I don’t like it either. Why would they be talking about it here?” Jackie asked and sat down across from Black.

“I don’t know. Niggas do dumb shit.” Black laughed. “But I don’t like it either.”

“Did they know Ayisha and Monique were standing behind them?” Rain asked. “If either of them been here before, they gotta know they work here.”

“And even if they didn’t know, that still takes us right back to why would they even be talking about it here?” Jackie asked, pounding her fist into her palm.

“I say again, niggas do dumb shit,” Black laughed and shrugged his shoulders.

Rain laughed and shook her head. “Wearin’ a vest and you got jokes too.”
