Warning character death
Chapter 9: Big Trouble in Little Havana
As Marie and Mr. Black cuddled tight under the blanket, they gazed into each other's eyes. "So your name, is it really Mr. Black? She asked him. "No" he replied. "It's Joe, Joe Costello, I've been called Mr. Black since I was 23. After I got out of the Marines nobody wanted to hire a Vietnam veteran, and I had to eat. So I started mercenary work killing, tracking down missing people, robbery, anything to make a dollar. I became am enforcer because I knew this guy was rich, and that his empire would be around awhile. And it's steady work it feels good to get a salary instead of pay by job shit." Marie was intrigued. This guy probably had a lot of stories.
"I had plans" she told Joe "When I was a little girl I just wanted to get out of Miami, maybe go to LA, New York, maybe sing. But I had a rough upbringing. My father was a loanshark, the biggest crook in Florida. He had dog fights, chicken fights, bloodsport. He would put me and my brother through Hell, he would beat us, make us run barefoot on broken glass and hot coals. He conditioned us to be tough. He taught us how to fight, and he would place us in death matches. But he taught me how to kill, hustle, deal, steal, anything to make money. He would rape me when he got a chance, until I was 17. I killed him my brother had already left at this time, he was in jail for dealing coke. So I moved to North Beach, started stripping, hustling pool, and occasionally murdering an asshole. So I guess we both got history."
Joe was shocked at her story, a beautiful woman like this went through so much, no wonder she's tough as nails. He kissed her and said "Well all that troublw is behond you now, just look forward to a prosperous future." At that moment Joe's phone rang. "Yeah" he said. "Mr. Black, this is Tony man. Listen I got some trouble here at the mansion, you get that pistol you got me to hire, and get locked and loaded man, I can take most of these fuckers but I need some backup. Get here right fuckin now!" then the phone hung up. "Get dressed Marie, we got some shit to do.
She put on a pair of skintight leather pants, and a black lace up low cut shirt. She put on a dog collar look alike necklace and put her hair back in a pony tail. Joe put on his black suit, he grabbed his Desert Eagle out of the dresser drawer. "Let's hit it." He said. They got to Marie's car he took the wheel, she hopped in the passenger seat. They pulled out of the parking lot and started heading down the road. No sooner than they went down the road, 2 black trucks with armed thugs pulled in behind them. "Dammit, take them fuckers out!" Black shouted. Marie stuck her upper half of her body out the window armed with an Uzi 9mm Machine Gun started unloading on the first truck, she pierced the windshield and hit the driver in the head. The truck them veered to the left and crashed right into a gas tanker causing the truck to explode, the second truck quickly gained on the car. This time Marie shot the motor hitting the fuel line, once again exploding this truck killing everyone inside. "That was easy." She said with a smirk.
"Yeah but don't get cocky, he says." They pulled up to Tony's mansion, his driveway was filled with corpses, some were Tony's men some were Gomez's men. "Ok, where the fuck is Tony?" Marie asked. "Come on you fuckers, You fucked with the wrong one!" They heard Tony shout. At that moment a goon come outside of the mansion screaming shooting gunfire. (Blam) Marie's gun went as she got the goon right in the head. Her and Black walked into the mansion shooting anyone in their sight. Just as soon as they got inside 2 goons behind the door come out and knocked both Joe and Marie in the back of the head with rifles. "Come on let's get outta here, let's take the bitch." One said as two more goons grabbed Marie and left out the door.
Joe got up with his shotgun in hand. "Marie!" he shouted as he shot the first goon right in the head as soon as he pulled the trigger he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He looked down to see a blade of a machete sticking out of his chest. He felt his eyes roll in the back of his head and he collapses lifeless on the ground outside the mansion. Marie was in shock she could feel the tears swelling up in her. She had seen many things in her life but was too tough to cry but this made her heart break more than she can handle. "Joe!" She shoutez asbshe was being stuffed into the trunk of a car. They sped off as tony ran outside with his machine gun.
