Chapter Ten:
Disclaimer: I own nothing except the plot and the OC
ROLAND'S POV
I speed down the road in my new hammerhead. I'm headed towards the meat packaging factory. I'm ready for this, this is the day I take on Mr. Sunshine. He is going down. I race across town in a hurry to get to Mr. Sunshine before he leaves. I skid to a stop outside the factory and check my T3K urban I make sure its full then grab the extra clips and enter the building.
I close the door softly behind me trying not to make too much noise. The factory is dimly lit by old lights that glow almost an orange color. I make sure the safety is off and enter the first room. I find it empty and walk through to the room connected to it. It is starting to smell like old meat. I find this second room empty too and I walk into a big open area and finally find the sons of Samedi.
I shoot and kill three of the Samedi and take cover behind a big rusted support pillar. I peak around the side of my temporary cover and fire my weapon a few more times I managed to get three more that time. I quickly move through the room only stopping to take cover and reload. I pop back out from behind my cover and take out a few more of the Samedi. I see two of them take off, they head up old rusted metal stairs. I sigh and follow them up the stairs. The stairs groan and shake under my weight.
I find myself on a rusted out catwalk like thing. I see some stairs that would lead me down to a middle level. This place wasn't accessible from the other room. I head for the stairs but come to a stop when I see Mr. Sunshine. He is standing off to the right with his hands in the air chanting something. I crouch down and notice he is holding a doll. A fucking doll!
I fire off a shot and it misses him but catches his attention. He starts to pick up the chanting as more of the Samedi enter through the archway that I came through. I take my eyes off of him for a moment to get rid of them. I groan when my head hits the wall. I pull myself up confused. I notice that he is happily waving the doll around causing me to be tossed about.
When I finally come to a stop I shoot the doll out of his hand the bullet goes through his hand and I smile when he clutches it close. I stand up and take the stairs down to the middle level. I shoot him several times and turn to leave but he gets back up. What the fuck I know I killed this bitch. I turn and fire more shots at him and he falls to the ground. He gets back up. What the fuck is going on?! I quickly change the clip and this time empty the full clip into his body and watch as he does an ugly dance. I walk over to him and use his own machete to cut his head off. Asshole won't get up this time.
I Walk back up the stairs and toss his head over the railing. I go through the archway and back down the stairs to the ground level and head out of the factory. Mr. Sunshine is gone just The General left.
SHAUNDI POV
"No, no fucking way Shaundi" the boss says. I watch as he narrows his eyes in a way that means were not talking about this. But how else will we find the general? I decide to press the matter.
"It's the quickest way to locate the General." he raises his eye brows at me and gets up to pace. He starts shaking his head. I frown.
"I'm not breaking into a fucking police station." he says while pacing and shaking his head.
"We don't have to break in" he let out a harsh laugh. "We go in as repairmen and fix their video equipment." he pauses mid step and looks like he's considering it.
"What the fuck" he says shrugging. I grin and head towards the elevator. He blocks my path. "you're staying here" he states. I stare at him in disbelief. This was my idea and part of it was to spend time around him and he won't even let me go.
"Oh, and I suppose you're going to hack the cameras?" I ask. He looks at me and he curses under his breath.
"Fine" he says and lets me get in the elevator. He heads straight to his hammerhead, and pats the hood. I climb into the passenger seat as he gets in and starts up the car. I point the way to where, thanks to an ex boyfriend I happen to know there is a repair van. He sees the blue and white van and speeds up and rams the back end. The van starts to swerve. He pulls a gun out and aims it out his window and lets out a few shots that shatters the drivers side mirror. The driver speeds up and so does Roland. He pulls up along side the drivers side and cuts him off then slams on the breaks and the van behind us comes to a stop.
Roland jumps out of the hammerhead and I follow after him. He pulls the driver out of the van at gun point and took his spot. I ran around to the back and grabbed the extra jumpsuits and we slip them on over our clothes before Roland starts the van. He backs up and carefully goes around his hammerhead before getting back into the correct lane. He drives carefully this time. I'm shocked when he stops at all the lights and even uses a turn signal. I guess he doesn't want to draw attention to the repair van.
We pull up along side the police station and he hops out heading for the front doors. I open the back and grab a supply box and he mumbles something and takes it from me.
We finally get to the desk and he says "Were here to fix the um camera?" I suppress a giggle and the lady hardly glances at us but waves us on. I take the lead and head up the stairs to the control room. I quickly plug in and hack into the cameras while Roland paces the hall in front of the door. I hear gun shots and look up to see him firing at groups of police officers. I will the program to hurry up, and thankfully it works. I unplug and run up besides him.
He looks behind us then towards the stairs. He looks torn between the two choices, but he grabs my hand and leads me to the outside and I notice were on a helipad. He doesn't pause just leads me up to a police helicopter. He gets in the front and I climb in besides him.
"Buckle up, this is going to be a bumpy ride." I stare at him in shock.
"Do you even know how to fly a helicopter?!" I ask feeling unease growing in the pit of my stomach.
"No, but I don't exactly have time to call up Toby now do I?!" He snaps at me and I frown. I watch as he starts moving controls that I'm almost sure he has no idea what they do. I see a frown grow on his face but he finally gets the helicopter off of the helipad. I sigh in relief but that quickly becomes a gasp when the helicopter starts swaying right and left.
He manages to level the helicopter out, and I pull out a blunt. I light it and take a large hit and feel myself relaxing. I pass it to Roland and he takes a hit as well. I relax back into the seat and watch the city pass by. We come to the hide out and he hovers above it and looks at me then looks at the controls. He starts pulling levers and we sway again but this time I don't mind. Finally hes able to land us on the helipad and we go into the hide out.
I quickly plug my feed into a central box and plug that connection into several other televisions. I watch as all the traffic cameras appear on the television screens. We see what every car is doing and where each car is going.
It takes a few days but one of the saints that was placed with watching the monitors for signs of the green limo finally sees many green cars pull up to the Ultor mall. I see Roland race for the elevator and I follow him quickly not giving him time to argue and try to make me stay. On the ride over he multitasks. I never get tired of watching him. He speeds through the busy afternoon streets ignoring all the red lights and stop signs while triple checking his gun and ammo.
We make it to the mall in record time and he screeches to a stop and hops out of the car as soon as it stops. I hurry to keep up with him as he makes his way to the elevator and we ride up to the actual mall part in silence. As soon as we exit the elevator he fires several shots into some unsuspecting Samedi. I struggle to keep up with him as he hurries through the mall with one target on his mind.
He kills a lot of Samedi members along the way. I've never had time to really watch how he battles, but this time I find myself intrigued. He moves quickly, his bullets always find the right target so he doesn't bother to stop and second guess his works. I'm almost in awe at the way he moves quickly while he fires with deadly accuracy. He weaves in and out of the walk way in the mall leading me to different spots to take cover for reloading.
I shake my head and clear my thoughts and pull out my gun. I follow his lead and shoot as many as I can but it takes me many more shots to bring a Samedi down. I follow him in and out of his cover and reload when he does. He finally sees the General riding through the mall. He loses his focus on the minor members and takes off after the General on foot. I run behind him trying to keep up. He shoots out both back tires on the vehicle. I watch as sparks begin to fly and the general's vehicle swerves and teeters on the side wheels.
When the vehicle slows down Roland rushes to catch up and shoots out a third tire making it roll side over side. When it finally comes to a stop against the wall Roland rushes to it and drags the General out. The general looks up at him with a half dazed and half sneer on his face. Roland doesn't hesitate to put a bullet between his eyes. He steps back a huge smile on his face. I can tell there will be a big party tonight.
"Boss, how did I do?" I ask him
"Your alive and he's not so I'd say pretty good." He grins down at me and I smile.
"Think I could take Gat?" I ask grinning.
"Not on your fucking life" he says smirking. He takes my hand and we walk away from the sons of Samedi's dead General.
