“Without Moe’s stupid ass,” Hogan said as he was known to say to any and everybody that got on with him. “That bitch Rona King had that nigga so fucked up in the head that he couldn’t tell his ass from a hole in the ground. She’s a bad little mutha fucka, but she wasn’t that fine to make a nigga fuck with Mike Black and them. That shit was stupid. And here’s the funny shit about it, the nigga wasn’t even fuckin’ her.”
Hogan had Mobley’s ear until Rona showed up on the scene and fucked up everything. He tried several times to tell Mobley that Rona was using him, but he couldn’t see it. The way Mobley saw it, he was using Rona to get what he wanted and once he had what he wanted, his plan was to kill Rona and take over her organization.
“Stupid! I told that nigga that fuckin’ with Black and them was bad for business and his health. I tried to tell him that if it was the smart play, then the bitch would be doing it herself with her own people,” Hogan shook his head, “But, you know Moe’s know every-fuckin-thing ass. Look where that shit got him. Dead.”
As Jackie drove to the warehouse, like Rain, she had a lot on her mind too. For her, this war had been costly in terms of men with money-making ability. When Jackie and Baby Chris intervened in Barnes’s attempt to hit The Four Kings, she became Rona’s priority and she targeted Jackie’s operation.
The captain without a crew, was what Black called her because following the arrest of Baby Chris, Jackie’s crew now pretty much consisted of Travis and Fiona.
But, it wasn’t just the loss of money that rocked Jackie to her core, those were her people, not just people that worked for her. As she drove, Jackie thought about how she became their captain. When Rain and Wanda took the family to war over Nick, the smaller operators feared that they would get caught up in their shit and they took their concerns to Jackie.
She stood in defiance of Rain when she said that she thought that Black needed to know what was going on in his house.
You not gonna tell Black a damn thing. You say a fuckin’ thing to Black and I will blow your fuckin’ brains out. Understand?
That ended with Jackie and Travis escorting Rain out of their spot at gunpoint. In doing so, she earned Rain’s res
pect that night and the bond between them was formed. Jackie also stood in defiance of Wanda when Jackie was summoned to her office and Wanda wanted to know where she stood in her fight with Rain. When Jackie asked her if Black knew what she was doing, Wanda’s response was chilling.
No, he doesn’t and if you’re thinking about calling him in Nassau and telling him, I can assure you that it would be the last call you ever made.
Although Wanda wasn’t the type to pull out a gun and blast her on the spot, Jackie knew that she wouldn’t have a problem with ordering it done, so she took the threat seriously.
However, those acts of defiance earned Jackie the smaller operators’ respect. They trusted and had faith in her, so when there came another time when nothing was certain, Jackie stepped up and came through for them. That’s why they were fiercely loyal to her and she was fiercely loyal to them, and that is why Black made her their captain. She would have her revenge for those that she’d lost.
Having her revenge was the only way for her to atone for what she saw as her responsibility in this war they were fighting. To Jackie, she should have seen Barnes and Mobley coming and been ready for them. Had she been in the streets, maybe she would have heard rumblings of someone gearing up to come at them. But she wasn’t.
At a crucial time in The Family, instead of being where she was supposed to be, with her finger on the pulse of the streets, Jackie was too busy with her legs in the air while Fiona and Travis made her scream, shake, and curl into the fetal position. The little adventure earned her a lecture from Black, a position that she never wanted to be in – ever.
I know, better than most, who you are and what your passions are, and you know that I don’t have a problem with it, but disappearing on Rain for days at a time can’t happen again.
As she arrived at the warehouse and they exited the vehicle, Jackie’s determination to make this right, which was fueled by her anger at what she had lost, came pouring out of her.
“Let’s go end these bastards,” Jackie said as she grabbed two fragmentation grenades from the arsenal that Rain kept in her truck.
“Fuckin’ right,” Rain said as she grabbed her HK433 and then got enough C-4 and detonators to get the job done because once she had killed everybody, her plan was to burn the bitch to the fuckin’ ground.
Once Carter got some extra .40 caliber clips for his Glock 22, Rain shut the trunk and the three killers stayed in the shadows and headed toward the building.
As soon as they reached the structure and got to the stairs that led inside of the warehouse, one man stepped to the railing armed with a Kel-Tec CMR-30 semi-automatic weapon, took aim and opened fire at them. As the gunman sprayed the area with shells, Rain, Jackie and Carter immediately sought better cover.
Once she made it to cover, Jackie raised her weapon and shot him in the head. When he went down, they emerged from cover and started toward the stairs again, but another man appeared at the top of the steps and began firing, forcing them to seek cover again.
“As long as he’s got the high ground, we’re fucked,” Rain shouted and looked at Carter.
“I’ll go around that way, see if I can get a clear shot at him. Cover me!”
When Rain and Jackie opened fire to give him cover, Carter moved out and stayed low as he moved to get a better angle on the shooter. When he was in position, Carter rose up and fired, taking him out with a shot in the chest. He kept firing wildly as he stumbled and fell over the rail. When he did, Rain and Jackie came out from cover.
“Damn,” Jackie said as she passed by his bloody twisted body splattered on the concrete.
“Yeah, that’s fucked up,” Rain said, and she charged up the stairs two at a time.
Jackie and Carter ran up the stairs after her. But when she reached the second level with both of her weapons blasting, Rain immediately had to retreat and run for cover, as two more men with automatic weapons began firing at her. She dove on the floor and covered her head.
When Jackie and Carter reached the second level, they found Rain pinned down and taking heavy fire. Jackie aimed her weapon and opened fire, hitting one of the gunmen. That gave Rain the time she needed to get to her feet and make it to better cover as Carter took down the other shooter.
“Thanks,” Rain said once she had made it to cover.
