Chapter Two: Presents.
The soles of their shoes panted and clapped as they made contact with the hard concrete pedestrian floor. The panting of their shoes echoed through Louis Avenue as they made their way to their vehicle. The blood that was coursing through their veins starting to gain velocity while their breaths were becoming shallower as they ran their hearts out. They want them back. They just want their loved ones back.
By the time Huey and Riley reached Huey's black Mercedes, their broad chests were heaving up and down and the beads of sweat on their foreheads were dancing. It was now 17h00. The sun and sky were making time evident. The sun's usual bright yellow and the skies bright blue all mingled into their new colours. The sun turned into a vibrant and rich orange as it started setting in the west, therefore causing the sky to turn a beautiful rich lilac.
Huey and Riley took note of the time and atmosphere as they jumped into the car. Huey wasted no time as he slammed the door shut, buckled his seat belt and started the ignition. He then pressed a few buttons all around his car in a strange manner. This caught Riley's attention when he finished buckling in himself. He gave his brother as very confused face.
"Nigga the fuck you doin'?! We ain't got time to play games!" Riley shouted restless while his eyes focused on his brother's fingers dancing around the dashboard.
"Shut up and hold tight" Huey commanded before pressing one more button.
As Huey finished his sentence, the cars controls had flipped over, revealing a more complicated section of buttons and screens. All of which had different colours, gadgets and autos. It also unleashed a new hidden engine, rearing the usual one away.
"What in the hell?!" Riley shouted, astonished at his brother's car.
As the car finally finished transforming, Huey's hands gripped the wheel tightly. Riley observed this and gave his brother a sad smile, because their feelings are so mutual at this moment. The girls that they love are in danger. How would you expect them to feel? Riley could see Huey's usual maroon eyes grow a tinted crimson. This made Riley even angrier, not at his brother, but the situation.
"Hold tight" Huey said as he switched up gears vigorously while looking ahead "This is gonna be a hell of a ride."
With that, Huey reversed his car smoothly and blasted down the road.
"Ahhhh! Bitch! That was sore!" Cindy groaned when her body was slammed down on something hard. Jazmine was not too far off, because she hissed and winced when the same abuse was given to her. "Who are you guys anyway? We didn't do anything!" Cindy hissed out as she glared back at Tyrone and Duval.
Tyrone and Duval looked at each other, grinned and then chuckled. Jazmine and Cindy had never heard something so disgusting. Their sadistic laughs came from their bellies as they laughed right in Cindy and Jazmine's faces. They wasted no time after laughing and walked over to the girls.
"If you stop fidgeting so much, maybe it won't be as painful" Tyrone hissed at the girls when Cindy began putting up a fight.
Tyrone and Duval had strapped the girls down on hospital looking beds. They had tied them down by their ankles and wrists to the bed before placing duct tape on their mouths. Both Jazmine and Cindy put up a fight as they tried to break free from these men's grips.
"I'm so bored with you bitches and your fights" Duval stated, bored. He rolled his eyes when he saw that Cindy and Jazmine tried to stare them down again. "Ty, drug them. Their bad attitudes is pissin' me off." He said as he fanned off the girls with his hand lazily.
'Drug?' Jazmine and Cindy silently screamed in their heads. They both turned their heads so that they could look at each other's face. Jazmine's stunning emerald eyes started to fill up tears as she looked at her best friend's gorgeous cerulean blue eyes. Cindy gave a weak and sad smile through the duct tape. Like a signal to say that everything will be okay.
It was easy to see that Cindy was being stronger through this than Jazmine, but that does not mean she was not petrified. She actually wanted to cry with Jazmine, but someone had to be the strong one between the two.
"Got it man" Tyrone said with a nod before going to the metallic utensils at the side of the room.
This room did look like a lab. It was also fairly large. It was painted white on both the walls and the floor. The smell of detergent was strong within it, and it had no windows. There were two hospital looking beds in the centre which Jazmine and Cindy were placed on. There was a strange machine in one corner of the room while there were linked computers and other complicated gadgets in the other corner. The other two corners of the room were filled with strange looking metallic utensils, all in many different sizes and shapes as well as what looked like to be a chemistry desk.
Tyrone rolled over a steel table towards the girls that had many different injections on it. When Jazmine turned her head and saw the needles and substances, she shrieked her lungs out, out of fear. Jazmine was never a fan of injections, and she'll never be. Tears streamed down Jazmine's face with fear and sadness jumping inside her heart. Cindy was feeling the same way, but of course hid it well. She was never a fan to show people her weak side.
"Shut up!" Tyrone raged at the two females. His face showed so much annoyance and anger. Jazmine's sobs became quieter as she realised that she had already lost this battle.
Duvall was busy by the strange looking machine and grabbing utensils and operating it. Only one thought lingered in both the girls' minds.
'What is he going to do?'
Tyrone wasted no time as he picked up an injection that had a blue substance within it and walked over to Cindy. At first when she saw it, Cindy's immediate instinct was to scream and to plead for help, but how could she when she was tied to a bed and had duct tape on her mouth? Cindy closed her eyes in defeat and began to silently accept her situation and waited for Tyrone to inject her.
Tyrone dabbed the side of Cindy's neck with detergent and then, without warning, injected Cindy with the fluid. Cindy groaned out in pain, because he was not gentle at all.
Jazmine had turned her head and saw the pain on Cindy's face when Tyrone injected her. Jazmine tried to muffle out words of encouragement to her best friend, but it was no use. This is because Cindy had immediately felt the effects of the substance within a few seconds.
Cindy's vision felt blurred and her head felt light. She felt as if Tyrone had given her an anaesthetic of some sort. She immediately felt sluggish and as if her body was failing her. Every second that passed, Cindy's limbs became numb. She turned her head towards Jazmine and gave her a look of hope. Jazmine's eyes widened at the look of defeat on her friend's face. A look that said 'Don't worry' was written on Cindy's face before she started dosing off into another dimension.
Jazmine shouted through the duct tape as she saw Cindy pass out. Streams of tears began to stain Jazmine's face again. Tyrone rolled his eyes as he saw her tear up again.
"You're such a fucken baby. Suck it up" Tyrone growled out coldly before grabbing another blue substance injection. She whipped her head when she heard the cluttering of utensils on the tray towards her left. She shrieked once more when she saw Tyrone testing the needle. That thin, sharp needle.
"CALM THE FUCK DOWN!" he raged before he slapped Jazmine's face. Jazmine froze immediately when Tyrone's rough hand made contact with her supple cheek.
"Ey! Don't hit her too hard!" Duval growled. "We're here to make a point, not a funeral, dumbass."
Tyrone just shook his head before dabbing Jazmine's neck.
Jazmine just closed her eyes and waited for the pain to come. When it did, she closed her even harsher as she felt the needle seep into her skin and free that odd blue fluid into her veins.
"See all done. Now open up your damn eyes—" Tyrone was not able to finish his sentence, because the most abnormal thing occurred before his eyes.
Jazmine was expecting herself to feel light headed and drowsy just like Cindy, but she felt everything opposed to that. When Jazmine opened her eyes, her eyes were not the beautiful emerald green they were before. They turned a deep indigo colour.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Tyrone shouted when he saw her eyes. He backed himself up against the wall out of shock and fear.
"What?" Duval asked due to the commotion he heard behind him. When he turned around, his body froze as he saw Jazmine's eyes as well. "The fuck?! You idiot! What did you do?!"
"Nothing! I just gave her the blue injection like you said!" Tyrone yelled, defending for himself.
Duval squinted at his partner in disbelief before opening them wide again in thought.
'No…'
Duval paced himself to the metal tray and inspected. His eyes grew larger and he shook his head in disbelief.
"What? Is something wrong—?" Tyrone asked.
SMACK!
"Aahhhh! The fuck man?!" Tyrone yelled in pain as he protected his slapped cheek.
"YOU FUCKEN IDIOT! DO YOU REALISE THE HELL YOU INJECTED HER WITH?!" Duvall shrieked out as he shoved the empty injections in front of Tyrone's face.
"The blue anaesthetic!" Tyrone shrieked back in defence.
"Are you fucken colour blind?!" Duval spat back with fire in every word he asked.
Tyrone looked to the side and slowly turned back to Duval. "A little bit—"Tyrone confessed.
SMACK!
"Ahhh! Fuck!" Tyrone shouted once more.
"YOU GAVE JAZMINE THE FUCKEN INDIGO FLUID!" Duval bellowed out, throwing the empty injections across the room.
"The hell is wrong with that?! It's still blue!"
Duval grabbed Tyrone by his shirt and pinned him to the wall. As Duval was inches away from Tyrone's face, he hissed "It's IK47."
Huey parked swiftly on his driveway before yanking off his seatbelt and rushed to the front door. "I'm getting my things. Take the car, phone the others, get your things, and be back here in twenty." Huey said as he opened his front door.
"I call my squad and you call yours?" Riley asked seriously and sternly as he jumped to the driver's seat and buckled up.
Huey nodded at his brother before disappearing inside. Riley reared the car and took off to his own apartment.
As Huey paced around his home, he went straight to his telephone, put it on loud speaker and started making calls.
Ring-ring…
Huey walked straight passed the living room straight to his bedroom.
"Boy! What you in a rush for?" Grandad asked from the sofa. Huey did not reply as he opened his wardrobe.
Ring-ring…
Huey stripped himself of his dress clothes and put on his dark camo pants, combat boots and pitch black t-shirt.
"Boy! I'm talkin' to you! Listen to your Granddaddy!"
Ring-ring…
"And what's that goddamn noise?!" Grandad shouted, already very irritated.
Ring-ring – "Hello? Huey?"
"Hiro! It's urgent!" Huey yelled from the bedroom, still putting on his shirt.
"Ey wassup man?" Hiro asked, sensing trouble already.
"Channel 9. Now" Huey commanded him as he got out his bedroom and went to his another room.
Since Hiro was on loud speaker, and Grandad was right in the centre of their conversation. Therefore, Robert also switched the channel to Channel 9. As soon as Robert pressed channel 9, he was bombarded by the face of Yanda Bryuns standing outside 'One Bite Café'. "It seems that there were two African American men walking into Woodcrest's well known 'One Bite Café' before they ambushed two young girls…" she started.
While Hiro and Robert were glued to the television, Huey opened up his secret room. He unlocked it with its password and opened it to find his prized possessions staring at him. He took out his sword holder and gun holders, and began to wrap them around his body. He wrapped holders to his arms, ankles, back and waist. As soon as he finished wrapping himself, he unlocked a safe within the room and took out his katana, pistols, Micro SMG, M4 and SPAS12. With that, he put on his fingerless combat gloves and went to the computer in the living room.
"This is Yanda Bruyns, Channel 9 News." She concluded. There was a moment of silence in the room while Huey just typed away.
"On it" was all Hiro said before electronics were soon heard in his background.
"Don't forget, I want video footage, neighbouring buildings' footages, identification scans, hacks and you here in about fifteen to twenty minutes" Huey said while typing away on his computer.
"Got it. I'll bring my Mustang." Hiro stated.
"Tell Caesar to bring his G63 AMG, and supplies."
"Done. And Huey?" Hiro asked, suddenly with his voice going soft.
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry…"
Huey paused in his typing and swallowed hard, allowing his Adams apple to dance up and down his throat. Without getting a reply, Hiro hung up.
Riley had already gotten dressed and packed a duffle bag filled with extra clothes and basic toiletry items. He had just gotten off the phone with his crew and was already driving down Timid Deer Lane to Wuncler Estate. When he was on the property, he jumped out and knocked on the door impatiently.
"Ey! Yal done?!" he shouted.
The door flew open to see Woodcrest's most well-known troublemakers smiling.
"Shit man! We've been ready!" Ed said with his devilish smile.
"Now let's go!" Gin yelled as he walked passed Riley and Ed to the car. "I got the heavy shit while Ed's packing the knifes and explosives" Gin said as he opened the boot to his Range Rover Sport SVR. "Get your shit out that car and park real quick! It's too pretty to get wrecked."
Riley obeyed and parked the car under a minute. He quickly joined the duo in the car and they sped off back to Huey's.
Jazmine's mind began to wake up as she felt the cold, dirty concrete floor on her body once more. She cringed at feeling the cold on her weak limbs before fluttering her eyes open. Her chest and head was feeling slightly heavy. She looked around the room to see she was no longer in the lab. She was in a cold, dark, isolated cell. There was absolutely nothing in it. It was a cube.
Jazmine began to lift her head and body off the ground so that she could lean against the wall. When she did, her body was very sore. Her arms, legs, stomach, everywhere. She did not understand what was happening. She only remembers Tyrone injecting her with that anaesthetic. After that, she could not remember anything from now.
"Hello?" she tried to ask with her now groggy voice. Her hair was everywhere, her dress and face was a mess and her dignity had been lost. "Halloo?" she asked once more, still extremely scared. When she asked the second time, she heard the voices of her kidnappers.
"She's awake!" Duval whispered loudly from the other side of the door.
"Shit! What do we do?!" Tyrone asked, actually sounding extremely scared.
"How the fuck am I supposed to know?!" Duval hissed back.
Before Jazmine could listen to anymore, she heard the footsteps of Duval and Tyrone coming to her door. At this, a cold shiver went down her spin which made the hairs on her back stand up. She then found a corner furthest away from the door. She was petrified, and for that, she began to cry once again.
She flinched when she heard a knock on her door.
"Hey, Jazmine? You okay?" Duval asked gently, as if he were still the sweet guy from the restaurant.
Jazmine did not utter a word.
"Jazmine, are you there? How you feeling baby girl?" Duval asked again.
Jazmine still did not respond, but her river of tears did not stop flowing down her meander cheeks.
"Jazmine, look, we're not gonna hurt you. We just want to see if you're okay—"
"THAT'S BULLSHIT!" she finally blurted. 'Just who do these men think they are? Telling me they won't hurt me when that's all they've been doing to Cindy and I. Wait…'
Cindy…
"WHERE'S CINDY! WHERE THE FUCK IS SHE?!" Jazmine bellowed out when she remembered her blonde friend. Colour drained from Jazmine's face when she remembered that Cindy was still out there.
"She's still in the lab! Now calm down!" Duval yelled back, but defensively.
"How the fuck am I supposed to calm down?! You kidnapped us, have my best friend in another room, drugged us with who knows what, hurt us and thrown me into a fucken cube! Now how the FUCK am I supposed to calm down! Huh? HUH?!" Jazmine preached, tears still wetting her face and letting her black side overpower her. Jazmine never cusses. She only cussed if she was super angry, or when she was in bed with Huey.
Jazmine's eyes were now really puffy and slightly pink, her cheek bruised by Tyrone's slap and a busted lip from who knows where.
There was a moment of silence on the other side of the door, until Duval spoke again. "Jazmine, come to the door."
"NO!"
"Jazmine don't be stupid—"
"You're fucken stupid! You and your pussy ass friend!"
"EY! The fuck you say about me bitch?!" Tyrone shouted, interfering their quarrel.
"Oh you're there? Well come say that to my face!" Jazmine has never been so out of character before. She's shown her black side multiple times before, but she has never been this outspoken and furious. What was going on with her?
"Then come to the door bitch!" Tyrone provoked her, which actually worked.
Jazmine stood up from the dirty ground and glared at them from the whole in the window. The both of them just looked at her, as if analysing her every move like she was a lab rat.
A flood of relief filled Tyrone and Duval's eyes when they finished scrutinizing her. She raised her eyebrow at this and squinted her eyes. "What are you two so relieved about?" she asked confused.
"Your eyes aren't blue anymore" Tyrone exhaled.
"Indigo! Indigo you colour blind bitch!" Duval yelled before smacking Tyrone upside his head. "Well, anyways, here." Duval handed Jazmine a pack of clothing and food. Jazmine took the clothes, but not the food. Tyrone raised his eyebrow at that.
"Aren't you hungry?" he asked confused.
"I am, but I won't eat your poisoned food." She answered frankly.
Tyrone rolled his eyes and took a piece of every item in her meal to prove that it was unharmed. Jazmine lifted her head in disbelieve before grabbing the food and went back to sit. The duo just chuckled at her sudden change in personality before leaving.
"Sleep tight" Duval said before retreating back to the lab with Tyrone. Jazmine rolled her eyes and carried on eating.
Jazmine shoved the meal in her mouth and was done in an instant. She also quickly changed into the clothes handed to her and sat back in her corner when she was done. What has gotten into her? She does not feel like herself. Nothing is normal anymore. When all of this hopefully ends, her gut is telling her life will never be the same.
She began hugging her legs and silently sobbed with her head on her knees. She wants to know if Cindy is alright. She wants to know why they are here. She wants to know why it had to be them, but most of all, she wants to know where her fiancé and brother-in-law are. She sobbed more just by thinking about Huey and Riley. She began to reach for her engagement ring to rub and kiss it, but…
"W-w-what?" she uttered under her breath when she realised her ring was gone. "No, no…no no no no NO!" she shouted as she started wailing her lungs out. Her engagement ring is gone. It's gone. She cried more when it dawned on her how miserable she was at that moment. Today was not supposed to end this way. Today was supposed to be full of life, love and happiness.
Flashback…
"W-wha…what?" Jazmine asked with big eyes as she looked at Huey bellow her.
Huey sighed. "I said, will you marry me Jazmine?" he asked once more, making him more nervous than he already is.
Jazmine's breath hitched in her throat as she kept on looking at her big afro boyfriend on one knee in front of her. She knew her answer, she's known it forever, but she was so shocked that her throat would not allow her to utter a word.
"Jazmine?" Huey asked, looking into Jazmine's beautiful green eyes. He was nervous as hell. It already took him a crap load of courage to go down on one knee like this. His heart was racing, his lips were dry, and he felt like he was sweating.
Huey had taken Jazmine out of Woodcrest and took her on a long weekend getaway in Annapolis, which was just an hour's drive away from Woodcrest. He had taken her to some fancy ass restaurant that he knew she would like called, Da Marco. Afterwards, they went strolling in a private park where there were hardly any people. When strolling, Huey decided to stop Jazmine's rambling, and went down on one knee – which lead to now.
"Jazmine…" Huey said, almost pleading to Jazmine since she had not replied yet.
A single tear went down Jazmine's yellow cheek and she began to smile broadly and brightly. Huey's eyes widened in hope. His heart was racing and he had the cutest expression on his face. He was not scolding at all. His eyebrows were softened as well as his eyes and mouth. He was so scared.
Jazmine began to chuckle at his adorable face while her tears began dancing down her face. Without hesitation, she began to nod her head with a big smile on her face.
Huey's eyes were even larger as he looked up at Jazmine. "I-is that a yes?" he stuttered. Since when does Huey stutter?
Jazmine nodded confidently again and with just enough breath uttered, "Yeah." She chuckled, "Yes I'll marry you—"and before she knew it, he jumped up from one knee and embraced Jazmine with all his might and heart's desire.
Jazmine was stunned for a second before returning his long, heart filled embrace. After a moment, Huey kissed her gently and then put the beautiful opal ring on her left hand. After putting it on, he enlaced their hands, looked into Jazmine's eyes and whispered, "I love you."
"I love you too" she whispered back.
Flashback ending.
Jazmine sobbed herself to sleep that night. Wishing to just go back to her normal happy life.
"Now that we know that she's stable, let's start up with Cindy" Duval said as he started rolling up his sleeves.
Tyrone nodded. "I'll start the machine."
"It was supposed to be Jazmine at first but, we can settle for her as well." Duval thought aloud. "Ty, pass me the needle."
"I got you." Tyrone said as he handed Duval a needle machine. After handing him the needle, Tyrone got his own and also stood by Cindy's limp body on the bed.
"Remember, no mistakes. Or else we're fucked" Tyrone warned Duval.
"I think I know that punkass! Don't you think it's a bit ironic for you to say that?" Duval spat.
"Shut the hell up and get started!" Tyrone said.
Duval rolled his eyes and manoeuvred Cindy's body with Tyrone…
"I'll see you in a few days Grandad" Huey said to Robert as he headed outside.
"Boy! Wait!" Grandad said just as Huey was about to slam the door behind him. Huey turned around and looked at his grandfather. "Be careful, ya hear me?" Robert asked with pleading eyes. Huey looked down at the wooden floor, looked back up, and nodded. Robert nodded as well, and just like that, Huey was out the door.
Huey went to join everyone else outside on his driveway. "I thought I told yal twenty minutes!" Huey yelled at the men around him.
"Ey! Don' be just yellin' at niggas! Rummy and Ed decided to get som' Burger King and shit!" Riley fought back.
"Gadgets aren't easy to move around Huey" Hiro whined.
"Brother I was told last minute—"Caesar defended.
"EVERYONE JUST SHUT UP!" Huey shouted. Huey is not a shouter, but desperate times call for desperate measures. "Now, let's check everything. Caesar?"
"First aid stuff is in my trunk, got some more advanced stuff if shit gets real" Caesar answered.
"Hiro?" Huey called out.
"Three laptops, one with strong network signals, one hacker efficient and the other forensically advanced. Burner phones for everyone, mics and ear pieces, signal detectors, some night vision goggles and back-up talkies." Hiro confidently listed.
"Good. Riley?"
"Food and clothes are stacked my nigga" he replied with a sly smirk.
"Ed? Rummy?"
"Explosives, knives, heavy armour and bullet proof vests. That was it right?" Ed asked as he chewed on his burger.
Huey nodded. "I already excused all of you from any other important activities like jobs or school. I told any snitch-themed family relatives lies about us going on vacation. Our hideout has also been found. Right now, we're invisible. So let's go."
Everyone nodded as they all started dispersing and chatting. "Gin, Ed, roll together in your Range Rover Sport SVR. Caesar, Riley, the G63 AMG. Hiro and I will take the Mustang. Hiro, give them their burner phones now" Huey commanded as he checked his Armor, supplies and cars. Hiro then threw everyone their phones while they all go to their commended vehicles.
It was now coming to an early evening as the stars began to dust the upcoming dark blue sky. As the stars came out to play, the ignitions of all three vehicles roared down the peaceful neighbourhood street. All the gases leaving their beautiful mechanic monsters fumed out and their engines roared with vengeance. Huey lead all three of the cars around as they drove. Huey gripped the wheel hard as he thought:
"It's game time bitches."
