Kinda filler-chapter, but everything in there needs to be said. Jex is very very annoyed at what went down at the den, but its all very important. i havent decided why yet, it just is.

Disclaimer: i own nothing

Enjoy!

SMASH!

Ink looked up from the manga book he was reading and said to Banks "Jex is home."

"I heard." Banks grinned. Jex stormed into the room, gun ready in her hand, fist bleeding where she had just punched a mirror. She glared at both of them for no apparent reason, and threw the gun at the opposite wall, which it left a huge dent. Banks laughed more. "Jex, calm down. What happened?"

"That bitch Trick showed his ugly fuckin' face, that's what!" she retrieved the gun and leveled it at the window. Ink dropped his book and leapt up, trying to protect the window. He knew she wouldn't shoot him. Banks examined the dent in the wall, and then poked it lightly with his finger. The whole section of plaster collapsed from the wall.

"Jex, Jex, if he's there on boss's orders, there's not a lot we can do. He's gonna be around. How long for?"

"A week! And because he's 'important to the boss' he thinks that makes him a 'higher rank' than me, and that means I cant kill him and he think he can do 'anything he likes' to me!" Jex shoved Ink out the way and tried to shoot the window again. Banks picked her up and wrapped his arms round her in a suffocating bear hug. She couldn't breathe, and dropped the gun in the attempt to get away.

"You're too valuable to the gang for the boss to stand for him doing whatever to you. And we've got your back. You'll be fine."

"And Jex" Ink added "The boss hinted that at the end of the week us three have a big job to do. That'll be fun; it can take your mind off things. Plus tonight, we need to burn down a rival gang boss's mansion. You in?"

"Sure, whatever. Banks, put me down, god damn it!!!" He laughed and did so.

"Well, I gotta go. Some business jerk paid me to 'talk' with so random corrupt employee or somethin', I don't know the details. Ciao." Banks left, leaving Ink and Jex alone.

"You know what's goin' down at the weekend, Ink?" Jex was only half paying attention.

"Not a clue." He picked up his book. "But we'll have fun, I'm sure."

That night, Kira took another twenty-one gang members. Most had all been involved in the same job a couple days before, so something must've gone wrong there for Kira to get names and faces. Jex knew them all, and losing them was cruel. Trick kept popping up wherever she was, but Ink, Marley or Banks was always there to stop her shooting him. Jex didn't really know Marley too well, but over the next few days they got to be friends. The man Watari was around a lot too. He always seemed to be watching, watching Jex, or Trick, or Marley. Gang rumors said he actually knew who the boss was, but seeing as only a few people, like Marley, knew who he was, Jex didn't really believe it. Marley was a cool guy, he didn't do anything for the gang except his dealing, and he was good at what he did. He could be better than Rookie had been, if he just stopped with all the video games and put everything into his job. But oh well.

Two days before whatever was being planned was going to happen, a note found its way to Jex.

Dockside, in two days. An hour before midnight. Be there.

M.

M. That was the boss's name. Why did he want her at the docks then? She couldn't refuse orders. She had to go.

M? Whos M? I think you can guess XD So the big plan's gonna happen at the dockside...hmm...R&R! I'm perishing without reviews here! I havent got any!! But still, i'm really into this story, so i'm going to keep updating. :P
