Sunlight peeped in through the dark curtains of the Chief's room. He shifted a little still sleeping, then slowly opened his eyes. He relaxed for a moment then turned to look at his alarm which flashed 8:30 am. He sighed as he rubbed his eyes. He hadn't quite gotten enough sleep seeing as the party had run very late last night, well into early morning. He had also been up later last night pondering about the strange girl he had met, he couldn't stop thinking about her. He would have slept longer if he didn't have a meeting in a half hour, sometimes it was hard to be king. He reached over and spoke into a device which was directly connected to every room and every speaker in the building. He informed them, that he was awake and the meeting would be taking place as planned, in a half hour everyone was expected to show up. He pulled himself off his bed and headed to his bathroom, still thinking about the girl. Something told him that he hadn't seen the last of her just yet.
-------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
In the meeting room the gathering was about to begin. It was a room which was used to discuss only matters of the gang, Aces. The room was grand, a golden colour. The meetings had rules. Rules couldn't be broken. Whatever was said here stayed within the four walls of the room. Anyone that dared to contradict the rules of the meeting was never heard from again. As usual Tim sat at the front of the room on his throne with his followers around him. Cedric and Grant sat closest to him during all meetings. Today they were here to talk about something very important. A rather disturbing incident had occurred and they were here to discuss it. Tim leaned forward a bit, as an indication for the discussion to begin. A comrade who had been chosen to present the issue began to speak. "Chief, last night something happened, just after the party." Tim rested his elbow on his throne and his hand under his cheek waiting for the man to continue. The comrade spoke again. "We discovered that-" he threw a nervous look around to the spectators feeling nervous, and not wanting to continue because the news would surely anger the boss. Tim smiled encouragingly and the man continued. "We found that...the loot from last time's major raid was missing from the storage." Some of the onlookers gasped and others turned to look at their leader. He didn't appear to be angry. He leaned his arms behind his head as he spoke. "Do you know where the loot has gone to?" The man shook his head yes, and spoke. "I'm quite sure boss, the Assassins have it."
The rest of the meeting was silent as they waited for the chief. Tim relaxed. "Where were you last night?" The man appeared more nervous. "I was at the party boss." Tim rested his arms on his knees. "Are you sure?" The man mumbled. "Where else." Tim smirked. He waved his hand in a gesture for the man to sit down. As the man sat a gun shot was heard throughout the room. The man had been shot. He fell backwards in his chair. At the front of the room stood their chief still holding the gun. The onlookers trembled, clearly frightened. The boss calmly threw the gun on the table in front of him. It landed on the dead man. The chief sat down then he began to explain. "Last night he was not at the party, instead he was out transporting the loot to his own premises. The goods never made it to the Assassins." Although the audience said nothing, he felt a further need to justify his actions. He walked over to where the dead man lay and retrieved from him a small device. When he held it up the onlookers easily recognized that it was a transmitter. Tim tossed it to the ground then crushed it with his boot. " He was a traitor, he provided information to Assassins." No one questioned the boss. A couple of men took the body away, and a team was set out lead by Grant to get the loot back. The meeting was also dismissed.
After dismissing the meeting, Tim headed to his chambers. Reaching his chambers he sat himself down on a couch and closed his eyes. He was thinking about the next raid. The Assassins, though they never bothered him, their activities were most annoying. He covered his eyes with his hand in frustration. He looked up when he heard the door to his chambers close. He looked up to see Vivian. "Is there anything you need Vivian?" Vivian smiled as she sat next to him on the couch. He stared at her, confused. She wrapped her arms around him. Tim, clearly angry pushed her way. He stood up and began to walk away. Vivian stood up also and grabbed his arm. He jerked his arm away and glared at her. He never quite understood why she was always behaving this way. One thing though was clear to him, he didn't like it. He did not have room in his life for her. "Vivian, stop." Vivian took a step back and lowered her head. With that he left the room leaving Vivian alone. She stood in the middle of the room crying. Why didn't he understand her, why didn't he return her feelings? She spoke from in between sobs. "I..love..you."
-------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
Tim decided to take a little walk outside. He walked down the corridor still thinking very slightly about the traitor he had killed. Even though the others thought that it didn't hurt the chief to kill, it did hurt him. He just didn't show it to the others. He was the leader, the king, he couldn't show his insecurities he couldn't have any weaknesses. He walked a place in the city which was quiet and a place which was surrounded by peace. He had come here whenever he felt alone and insecure, ever since he was a child. This place was a secret, his secret, or so he thought. He sat himself under a tree and stared out into the open. He soon felt a hand on his shoulder, and so he looked up. He was expecting to see either Cedric or Grant if anyone, but the person who had come was neither. It was Sam. She smiled at him. He turned and faced forward. She sat next to him. He asked her a question. "How did you find me, no one knows about this place." She grinned as she rested her head on his shoulder. "Let's just say I've been watching you, for a while." He sighed, annoyed. "I don't understand you women sometimes."
She faced him confused. Then teasingly asked "What do you mean." He smirked. "Women, are always going after what they can't have." She grinned. "Like what?" He sighed. He wasn't going to tell her about Vivian, and how much she annoyed him. He thought he would explain it to her in another way. " Take yourself for example." She snuggled closer to him. "Okay...take me." Tim cleared his throat and moved slightly away from her. He didn't appreciate the slight indication in her words. She was much too close for comfort. He continued. "I've told you so many times to stay away from me, yet you don't stop." Sam grinned. "Oh, that." She wrapped her arms around him. She continued. "I don't have control over that." Sam snuggled while thinking "I don't have any choice, I'm only following the plan." She snapped out of her thoughts to find that he was staring at her. He gently took her hand in his for a brief moment. She gulped. He let go of her hand and then stood up suddenly. She looked up confused. He spoke. "I better be getting back." He started to walk away then turned and finished. "It was nice seeing you again, Sam."
He left Sam alone sitting under the tree. She sighed. She pulled her legs up to meet her chest and rested her chin on her knees. She was left alone for a brief moment, but then she heard footsteps. She looked up to see a familiar face. Sam got off the ground smiling. She was swept up into a hug by the man. She hugged him back. He whispered in her ear. "Nice job, now I have a bigger plan for the King of Aces..."
