NIGHT Fortress, Roanapur

"Well Done, team!" Todd said. "I will transfer 5,000,000 American dollars to your respective bank accounts. You can go to the bank to exchange that into 153,160,000 Baht if you like."

"Will do." Rock said.

"Indeed." Winston added.

"I am up!" Dutch added.

"Sounds cool!" I remarked. We stopped at the bank and exchanged half of that for Thailand Baht, and stopped at a local tea shop so I could tell Dutch and Winston what me and Rock saw.

"I don't know how to tell you this, but..." Rock said to Dutch.

"Balalaika is a snake, she and Mister Chang are working with the Shariah Alliance!" I said, finishing Rock's sentence.

"That bastard!" Dutch commented. "After all the times she hired us, this is how she repays us, by working with the terrorists?"

"Seems like she plotted this the whole time." I remarked. "Balalaika may have support from the Les Saints, so we should be on the lookout for some purple guys."

"What about Hotel Moscow?" Rock asked.

"Hotel Moscow is out of business." Winston explained. "Once NIGHT was deployed to Roanapur, all the Russians are either dead or busted by Rohan. As for the Hong Kong Triad, many of them have either been killed, arrested or they dropped their flags and are in exile."

"Come, we got to get Balalaika." Dutch ordered. "There are some Les Saints on the roof of the Yellowflag Bar. We will get on the roof and take them out!" So we got on the roof and encountered the Les Saints, each with shotguns and assault rifles. Winston threw three grenades at them, blowing them up in seconds, and leaving a slight crack in the roof of the building, since the roof was heavily enforced. The leader of the Saints, Mr. Stefan Pascal was making a run for it. I quickly pulled the trigger on my Cutlass, and the bullet hit Stefan in the head. We got to the ground floor and saw Balalaika escape to the sea. We pursued Balalaika in the Lagoon ship. She was fleeing in a speedboat, but she was no match for a pirate cruiser.

"Two hands, take this Heat Seeking Rocket Launcher, it will lock on to Balalaika, taking her out. Dutch handed me the launcher, and I locked on to Balalaika's boat, and fired away. The boat exploded, and that bitch was no more.

"This is Todd." Todd said over the phone. "Did you kill Balalaika?"

"Yes." I replied.

"Good." Todd said. "I will pay you a cut of 16 million dollars in Thai Baht, and I will transfer each of your friends a cut as well."

"That's cool." I remarked.

"Listen, Chang's bounty is 24 million, so I will transfer you a cut of six million once Chang is dead." Todd replied.

"Roger that." I answered, ending the phone call.
