SapphireStones- I love strong female characters too as you can see. I hope that doesn't make me a FAG. Yep and I figured there would be some errors cuz I'm only human right? I really need a proofreader though becuz I don't do a good enough job with it. Hope you're enjoyin' that college life!
Lil Dutchezz aka the b-day gurl- Thanks for wishing my lil bro a happy birthday! But onto the review you left me...I'm glad you like the name of Huey's katana. I'd figure he would name it that because it sounds cool and also because that's the name of the main rapper of The Roots. Yes Cookie is going to be helpful as she always is. Oh and one more thing, you must have forgot that Kimberly originally started the beef cuz Carmela cheated off of Kimberly's math test.

Chapter 12: Sleeping With Open Eyes
Cindy began to squeeze the trigger until she saw a figure hop in front of her. The figure used a katana and cut the RPG-7 in half like it was piece of fire wood. Cindy eye's doubled their normal size as she noticed who the figure was.
"See…" the figure spat as some blood dripped from her mouth. "They left me for dead again!"
"Kimberly!" Cindy tossed the broken weapon to the side. "How are you still alive?"
"I'm the devil…" she roared. "I can't be killed!"
Kimberly then charged at the Blonde Bomber and delivered a perfect roundhouse kick. The tip of her foot slammed into Cindy's cheek causing her to do a three-hundred and sixty degree turn. Kimberly then grabbed Cindy by the neck and lifted her off the ground. The blonde let out a scream as she felt the oxygen being sucked out of her.
"Big Red Bird!" Kimberly used her free hand to page the pilot of the helicopter.
"This is Big Red Bird!"
"Shoot the house down immediately!" she yelled.
Meanwhile back in the kitchen…
"You heard dat?" Carmela's eyes wiggled. "That was Masaki!"
"No way…we left her for dead in the family room." Huey then exited the kitchen to examine.
"I wonder why Cindy hasn't shot the chopper down yet…" Caesar said in a worried tone.
"Me too." Cookie looked through the blinds and noticed the helicopter was ascending into the sky.
Huey came back into the room with worried look on his face. "She's not there!"
"She just doesn't know how to die, huh?" Carmela cracked her fists.
"Hmm…look here's a trail of blood." Caesar looked at the trail.
The gang followed the trail of blood up the stairs and then noticed it stopped at the entrance to the attic. Caesar took the lead as he firmly held onto his newly acquired M1014 semi-automatic shotgun. He kicked the door open and still saw the trail of blood as they continued to go upwards. They finally made it to the top, which lead to the roof. The roof where Cindy was suppose to be shooting the chopper down.
"Caesar!" Cindy yelled as she was being choked to the death by Kimberly.
"Put her down!" Caesar yelled pointing the shotgun at the deranged Asian.
Kimberly simply smiled as she felt the winds from the helicopter hovering behind her. She then pulled out a small ninja sword and held it to Cindy's throat. Cindy began to cry as she felt the cold blade trailing across her throat.
"I'm not going to say it again!" Caesar took aim for Kimberly.
Meanwhile on another roof…
The midnight breeze gently blew through the summer night. Cookie was using her sniper scope to her Barrett .50 cal sniper rifle to get a good shot on Kimberly. She zoomed in as she finally got the crosshairs placed right in the center of her target's forehead. A small grin appeared on Cookie's face as she took a deep breath for a more steady shot.
Back on Caesar's roof…
"Say goodnight!" Kimberly cackled as she rose the blade into the air.
Just before she could bring the blade to Cindy's throat, a long shot rang out through the night. After the sound made its disturbance, Kimberly instantly fell to the ground as pieces of her brain were scattered all over the place. The Blonde Bomber fell some of the chunks on her and instantly panicked and ran towards Caesar. Then another shot rang out which caused everyone on the rooftop to drop for cover. Huey looked at the helicopter and noticed the cockpit windows were now painted with blood.
'That was one hell of a shot.'
"Yo Baby Huey!" Cookie yelled from at least three houses away. "Get off of the roof, the chopper is going to crash into the house!"
Huey looked up and noticed the helicopter was heading towards them. Caesar scooped up the shocked Cindy, Riley grabbed Carmela and Huey picked Jazmine up as they all headed for the ground level.
Meanwhile at Sunshine's house…
Sunshine just laid in her big comfy queen size bed and thought of Riley. She rolled over onto her back and sighed dreamily.
"He's finally coming back to me." she smiled.
As the daydreaming girl continued to think of her Riley, a loud explosion snapped her out of those thoughts. Sunshine ran towards her window and saw a big cloud of smoke with flames dancing in the mix.
"That's Caesar's house!" Sunshine ran to her closet and grabbed some black booty shorts.
Back at the Caesar residence…
"Dammit!" Caesar cried as he fell to his knees. He stared into the flames as he saw his the burning debris from his house and helicopter. "This is too much…my mama moved us out here to escape bullshit like this!"
"Carmela…" Huey began. "The only way this is going to end is if we go and find Juan."
"I don't know where he lives now!" Carmela exclaimed. "Mari knew though…"
Riley hugged Carmela as she began to gently weep into his chest. Sunshine then came running down the block and stopped in front of the gang panting.
"What in the world?" she gasped as she saw the remains of Caesar's house.
"Sunny!" Riley yelled. "You need to go home, it's dangerous out here!"
"Yea, it's past your curfew anyways." Carmela mumbled from Riley's chest.
Sunshine just sucked her teeth. "I'm sorry I'm concerned about the safety of my friends."
"Your friends? They're mah friends too!" Carmela took her head out of Riley's chest.
"Too bad I knew them first!" Sunshine stuck her tongue out.
"Don't stick ya tongue out at me like that." Carmela hissed. "Ya damn, carpet muncher!"
"Enough already!" Huey shouted. "Look right now, we need to kill Juan before he kills us!"
"Kill?" Sunshine gulped.
"Yes something I should do to you…."
"Carmela!" Riley loosened his embrace on Carmela.
"What? I was just kiddin'…" Carmela said half-heartedly.
Riley just sighed and walked away from his baby mother. He then walked up to Sunshine and began to talk with her. As Riley explained everything to Sunshine, Carmela's face turned beet red in anger but she decided to let it slide, this time.
"Jazzy?" Carmela wrapped an arm around the mulatto's shoulder. "You think Riley still loves Sunshine?"
"Uh…" Jazmine began. "I don't think so…" she lied.
"You sure?"
"Positive!"
The two then looked over and Riley and Sunshine who were both talking and enjoying each other's company so well.
"Is that how me and Riley look when we talk?"
"Uh…" Jazmine thought really hard.
Lately anytime Riley and Carmela are together, one of them if not both look miserable. Jazzy ran a hand through her naps and gave Carmela a fake smile.
"Of course you two look like that." she said. "You love him right?"
"Yes, just that bitch loves him too!" she yelled.
Sunshine's usual happy expression was being replaced with an angry expression. She stomped over to where Carmela was and got into her face.
"Now I know you're jealous of me." Sunshine said proudly. "But I'm not going to let you disrespect me anymore!"
"Oh and whatcha gonna do about it?" Carmela balled her fists up. "That's right you can't do anything because Riley is with me! Not you!"
"Oh really?" she arched her eyebrows. "You haven't told her yet, Riley?"
Everyone looked at Riley who was sweating bullets at the time. He gulped as he felt the pressure on him.
"Told me what, Esco?" Carmela asked tapping her foot impatiently.
"Well after we had our little fight earlier today…I went over to Sunny's house and-"
"You duked her?!" Caesar butted in.
"No, but when I told her about the whole situation, she still told me to be with you but…that's when I discovered her true loyalty to me." Riley spoke without his usual gangsta tone.
"That's when he decided that I would more than a woman for him." Sunshine beamed.
Carmela didn't say a word, she just turned her back towards the others.
"Riley, you know my sister just died and you have the nerve to be wit Sunshine, instead me? We have a kid together for God's sake!"
"I know…but when I made this decision your sister was still alive."
"Marisol is dead?" Sunshine's gentle voice asked.
"Yes, bitch." Carmela growled. "Mi hermana is dead…"
"I'm sorry…"
"No you're not." Carmela turned around to reveal her glassy crimson orbs. "If you were you wouldn't take the one thing away from me that matters the most!"
"LISSEN UP!" Riley shouted into the sky. "I CAN'T HANDLE DIS SHIT RITE NOW! SO UNTIL I CLEAR MAH MIND UP, I'M OFFICIALLY SINGLE LIKE A DOLLAR BILL!"
"Riley…" they both moaned.
"Leave me alone…" he just sat on the ground and sighed.
"Hey I can call Maury later if you want to settle your differences, but right now we need to find Juan." Huey suggested.
"Baby Huey…" Cookie cooed as she approached everyone. "Did you like my shots?"
"They were pretty impressive." Huey admitted. "I'm glad you're back."
"Oh did you miss me?" Cookie attempted to grab Huey's cheeks but she was stop dead in her tracks by Jazmine. The orange haired girlfriend of Huey Freeman grabbed Cookie's hands and gave them a twist, causing Cookie to wince in pain. "Alright, sorry Jazmine."
"So what were you saying, Baby Huey?" Cookie asked trying to shake the pain.
"I'm glad you're back, because we need to find your boss and kill him before he kills us."
"Hmm…that won't be easy." Cookie shook her head. "As of now Juan is in Puerto Rico, but he told me before he deployed me to kill you that he was heading to Woodcrest."
"Alright so that means he's here somewhere." Cindy stated the obvious.
"We'll need to get our rest first." Huey took a small yawn. "It'll be better to get him in the morning."
"Exactly where are we going to stay?" Caesar asked. "I mean we don't exactly have houses at the moment!"
"Yo! We can stay at Thugnifcent's crib!" Riley spoke for the first time since his previous outburst.
"Too bad he's on tour right now…" Huey reminded his younger brother.
"Nigga you know I got hook-ups!" Riley flashed a set of keys. "He hooked me up wit da keys, so let's crash there for the night!"
"Yeah!" everyone cheered with the except of Huey.
A couple of hours later at Thugnifcent's Manor…
"Damn Reezy! This place is ballin!" Cindy awed.
"Speakin' of ballin…wanna play twenty-one?" Riley wiggled his eyebrows. "So I can beat dat ass and relieve some stress."
"Sure, but I'm sure I'll be whoopin' ya candy ass all around this mansion." she laughed as they exited the room and headed towards the gymnasium.
The gang was currently inside of the theater room watching the news on a huge 65" inch SONY Plasma television. Images of the burning remains of Huey and Caesar's house took over the screen.
"Today on Timid Deer Lane, two loud explosions were heard during the evening hours. Witnesses believe the explosions were caused by terrorists from the Middle East. This incident caught the attention of President Bush, who put Woodcrest under terror alert: ORANGE." the news reporter read from their script.
The TV was instantly shut off by an annoyed Huey.
"White people." he spat in disgust.
"I know right?" Cookie entered the room without her previous assassin gear on. Her new attire consisted of an extra small white tank top, which showed off her upper physique. The lower half of her body was covered up with tight denim jeans and a gold ankle bracelet "Always blaming another race for their problems, huh?"
"So…" Huey quickly changed the subject. "What made you decide not to kill us?"
"Well Baby Huey, if you must really know…I was scared."
"Scared?"
"Hell yeah! When I saw you kill my first comrade, I was like fuck this shit!" Cookie laughed. "So when it was my turn to battle you, I was just testin' ya out. I never intended on killing you guys. Now if we kill Juan, everyone will get what they want."
"How? What benefits do we get?" Jazmine asked, her tone rivaling Huey's signature tone.
"You kill the guy that's trying to kill you."
"And how the hell does it help you?" Huey butted back in.
"I can get his money! He was willing to pay me a quarter million to kill all of ya, so I know he's got to be at least a milli!"
"Okay, so you're just helping for money?"
"I've got to support my lil bro, Dee." she pulled out her wallet. "Plus I've come to find you kids are really nice."
She let the wallet open up to reveal tons of pictures of her younger brother. One picture contained a picture of a young boy with a skin complexion that mimicked his older sister's tone perfectly. His head was full of cornrows and his eyes had the same twinkle as Cookie's. They both had those shiny amber eyes. Jazmine adored the pictures while Huey just observed from the distance.
"Enough about me, let's talk about you two lovebirds!" Cookie pocketed the pictures. "First and foremost how long have you two been dating?"
"It's been eleven months, twenty one days, ninety hours and fourteen minutes." Jazmine said instantly.
"Dayum, you gotta be sprung." Cookie laughed. "You know the exact time and everything! I wish I could find a love like that."
"Yep, I consider myself a lucky girl." Jazmine poked her chest with her thumb.
"You must have luck in your blood." Huey's rough tone entered the conversation. "We should all be dead right now."
"Wow…is he always like this?" Cookie placed her chin into her hands.
"He's only showing off. I've dealt with this for eight years and running."
"EIGHT YEARS! EIGHT YEARS AND YOU GUYS HAVE ONLY BEEN DATIN' FOR PRATICALLY ONE YEAR!" Cookie exclaimed.
"Pretty much." Huey said. "For those seven years, I would torment Jazmine for her thoughts and beliefs. Anything positive she would bring up, I brought out the negative. I only did these things to make her stronger. Throughout the years it worked, but I was always too blinded by hate to realize I was hurting her at the same time." his strong arm then reached out and pulled his mulatto princess closer. "It wasn't until one night, at a party I realized that I was in denial about my feelings for Jazmine. That night she brought it to my attention that she loved me for seven years. That's when I realized I loved her too for seven years and until death does us apart."
"Awww!" Cookie cooed. "You guys are so adorable. I can hear the wedding bells now!"
Huey and Jazmine both blushed instantly. Cookie just smiled and absorbed the happiness filled in the room. Caesar was snoozing on a couch on the far side of the room. He had a big smile on his face, probably having a dream about Cindy. Huey and Jazmine were both cuddling on a couch, Sunshine was jogging down some song lyrics and Carmela was polishing her favorite weapon with a dry cloth.
N.Y.C., is all I see
O.D.B., nigga, R.I.P. (konichiwa bitches)
This Killa Beez on ya M.I.C.
You want it all, well then y'all like me (konichiwa bitches)
Come on, come on, I think they playing my song
I came to blow them out the frame, and I'm gone (konichiwa bitches)
M-E-T, to the H-O-D
Why motherfuckers wanna hate on me? (konichiwa bitches)
All eyes in the room landed on Cookie as they noticed her digging through her tight pockets to retrieve the device that was playing the song. Finally getting a hold of her cell phone, she flipped it open…
"Hello?"
"I see you've killed Masaki-Wang…" Juan chuckled. "Bad move, Johnson."
"That bitch got what she deserved! You from to get it too!" Cookie threatened.
"Oh am I really? Well all I know is you vatos better sleep witcha eyes open…like Bill Cosby." Juan then ended the call.
"Shit!" Cookie cussed slamming her phone to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Jazmine asked with a concerned tone.
"Juan knows what happened out there tonight. He might have some gunners out for us, me especially."
"This is nothing new." Huey moaned. "We really got to put an end to this…"
Riley and Cindy entered the room both drenched with sweat, the only difference between the two was one wore a smile and the other wore a frown. Riley muttered many obscenities while Cindy giggled at his childish antics.
"Quit laughin', white ho." Riley spat.
"Young Reezy, they gonna hafta start callin' ya vacuum!"
"Vacuum?" he asked with a big question mark hovering above his head.
"That's just her way of sayin' you suck." Caesar yawned as he woke up from his short slumber.
"Riley, call Ed and Rummy." Huey shouted. "As much as I dread saying this…but we're going to need their help."
One hour later…
A man with blonde cornrows and a man with red hair styled into a buzz cut both took huge drafts from their blunts. They blew smoke into the air and both began to laugh hysterically.
"So lemme git this shit straight…" Ed Wuncler III said in between laughs. "You want me and Rummy to take sniper positions from da rooftops and protect ya necks while ya'll git some shuteye?"
"Yes." Huey nodded his head.
"What benefits do we get?" Rummy asked with an arched eyebrow.
"Money?" Huey suggested.
"Nigga, I got money tallin' than you! Nigga, I got so money dat mah money has money! Nigga, I got-"
"Alright!" Huey shouted cutting off Ed. "I understand that you have enough money."
"Well then what are we gonna get?" Ed asked. "Oh and don't offer us no weed, we got enough of dat!" he took another big hit from his blunt.
"They must want some pussy…" Riley spoke to himself.
"YEA THAT'S IT!" Rummy shouted. "Get us some nice tight coochie!"
"Uh…" Huey tried to find the right words to say. "I don't know if I can exactly get you that."
"Oh don't worry, we don't want ya mixed ho…we want a full black bitch!" Ed rubbed his hands together. "Like her!" he pointed to Cookie, who was oblivious to everything happening.
"Wait Ed, we don't wanna pull some R. Kelly shit!" Rummy warned his best friend. "I don't think she's legal…"
"How old are ya, sugar draws?" Ed walked over to Cookie and squeeze her bottom.
"I'll show you with my hand!" she yelled and slapped Ed eighteen times. "I hope that answered ya question, punk ass white boi!"
"Damn…" was Rummy said as he saw the redhead faint. "So I take it you're eighteen?"
"Eighteen years young." she corrected him. "And not interested in people who don't act like themselves."
"Oh that's gotta burn…" Riley walked up and patted his friend on the back. "But it's cool…I'll help find ya some hoes on Myspace. But I'll only do it if ya watch our asses tonight while we catch some Z's?"
"Word…we gotcha covered little man." Rummy gave a thumbs up.
Rummy then picked up Ed and proceeded to exit the room and head for the rooftops. Sunshine and Cookie just shook their heads in shame at the actions of the older men.
"So that's like an everyday thing with them, huh?" Sunshine asked playing her pen on the tip of her tongue.
Riley noticed and felt himself becoming excited in the lower regions. His attention now was one-hundred percent geared towards her. Sunshine noticed and battered her eyelashes back flirtatiously.
"Yep pretty much." Cindy yawned. "Well I don't know about ya'll but me and Ceez are hittin' the sheets."
"Ight then, just make sure no laser beams be shinin' on ya dick, ight Caesar?" Riley cackled.
"Shut the fuck up, Riley." Caesar growled.
"Say what?" Sunshine laughed. "I'm gonna pretend I just didn't hear that!"
"Long story, I can tell you later on." Riley said casually.
"How can you if we gonna screw tonight?" Carmela moaned seductively.
"Oh really? Well I guess ya forgot I said I'm single as of now dammit!" Riley sucked his teeth. 'I can't believe I just turned down some pussy! But I really needs to get mah mind right first!'
"Turnin' down this bomb ass pussy, eh?" Carmela growled. "You'll regret tonight when you jackin' off in the bathroom!"
"Oh leave him alone, Carmela!" Sunshine shouted at the red hot latina. "Riley needs time to think, let him breath."
"Thanks…" Riley whispered. "I'll see ya'll niggas in the A.M."
"Good night Riley." everyone in the room with the exception of Carmela.
"I think we should all go to bed. We need all the rest we can get while we've got sniper support." Huey then scooped Jazmine up bridal style. "See you guys in the morning."
Will Juan strike during the plight of midnight? Maybe his goons perhaps? Also what kind of antics will happen during the night? Find out in Chapter 13: The Plight Of Midnight
