[1 week later]
Liz is frustrated as she tries to profile everyone from Operation Lone Star in Clarice's office while Clarice was outside talking to Meera and Samar
No sign of Darryl and Divine what so ever. It's as if they vanished from the face of the earth.
Things with Red have been a rollercoaster.
[Flashback]
"Was all of this really necessary?"
That's what Red said after turning off the t.v. He had seen a news report about the capture of his associate who happened to also be the snipper Irishman that he hired to be a bodyguard for Liz. Liz however was standing there wearing all black in a serious pose.
"Tell you what, how about I find somebody to follow you around 24/7 and see how you like it"
"You know as well as I, this has nothing to do with being followed. This is about being found out, you're hiding something, why else risk my capture?"
"Ezra is not going to talk"
"I know that but you didn't and now you are holding him in a cement box under a no contact order congratulations Lizzie, you plug a whole but the dam will fail it's only a matter of time"
Both of them were staring at each other, anger was reflected in both of their eyes. One is fighting off certain feelings that are of question….a question of lust meanwhile the other fighting off the doubts, a question of trust.
Liz for the first time at that point did feel a little intimidated at Red's gaze but he wasn't going to get her under her skin
"If you only did what I asked you, this would've not happened Red. Now, pay the price.
Red just looked at Dembe and Dembe got his cue and walked out. As Liz was about to walk out Red grabbed her by the wrist and put her in a wall
"You will tell me what you are hiding Lizzie"
"If I don't want to?"
"There are many ways of making you talk"
Minutes later
"Ohhh yess like that there….. I'm cumming"
As soon as Liz says that, Red stops licking her vagina.
"Wha…what are you doing"
Red smiled darkly
"Tell me your secret"
Liz's eyes bugged out
The end result was Liz leaving Red's hotel room pissed and yet still horny. She had no choice but to relief herself when she got back to her hotel room. At least she didn't saying anything; needless to say, she's pissed at Red at this point.
She shook her head trying to stop thinking about that night and went back to figure out and try to profile Darryl Brown.
He's the type of killer who uses cars as his weapon of choice. He's not in DC because there is no car culture here. The places of choice would have to be New York, California, Florida, Georgia. Could he be in back in Japan where we got him? No I doubt it.
Liz and the task force with Red's help went to Japan following Darryl Brown's movements as he was captured minutes before he participated in drifting race. But given of what happened in Japan with those politicians, he would not return where it's hot waters.
Then her cell rang and she picked up
"Keen"
Then she heard a volume of a song go up and her face was self-explanatory
Shocked and blushed. Much like when somebody has skeletons in the closet.
The lyrics that she was listening where something like this
We hop up in that AMG and D we in the Westin
She puttin' moves on me, I could've swore shawty's a wrestler
Talkin' all that shit soon as I hit
Now I got her talkin' like this
In a falsetto
She like, ooo, ooo, baby, ahh, ahh, ahh, ooo
In a falsetto
She like, ooo, ooo, baby, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
In a falsetto
She like, ooo, ooo, baby, ahh, ahh, ahh, ooo
In a falsetto
She like, ooo, ooo, baby, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Then the person who called hanged up
Liz was just floored; she didn't even want to think anymore. Nobody was supposed to know that song, it was her guilty pleasure song she liked, hell it was the song she listened as she was relieving herself that night.
As she was about to trace back the call Clarice came in and looked a Liz a little concerned
"Are you alright Liz? You looked a little flushed"
Damn it it's that noticeable?
"no, no I'm ok"
Clarice nodded as she went back to her chair and she was carrying a folder and she gave it to Liz. It read as follows
DEA Case Priority #1
The Elegant One- Drug Lord and Distributor
Intel: March 2010 - April 2011
"I heard about this during my time in New York. Wasn't he the most powerful drug lord that the tabloids were fantasied with for the past 2 years or so?"
Liz opened the folder and she looked at the pictures. It looked like a bunch of people selling drugs and they were wearing name brand clothes like Gucci or Armani. Then the weed and cocaine in packs recuperated from sting operations in tons. Drug dealers murdered corpses in the ground. Liz was completely astonished to say the least. Clarice then says
"Ever since, the fascination of the media began circulating, The DEA was working none stop to catch the character. But, they always hit a dead end. The people they captured wouldn't cooperate, operations that would have thought to bring down the elegant one failed. But then, all drug activity stopped from the elegant one and since the agency thought that the elegant one died, they closed the case until recently when they got a call from an anonymous tipster saying that The Elegant One was none other than Divine herself."
Then Liz had an epiphany. That night when she saved Divine from the attack, the weed, the clothes, Divine wasn't any drug dealer. Liz realized that she had saved the person who would inevitably became the most powerful drug lord in the state of New York.
"Basically the deal with Walter White wasn't a one-time deal"
"I'm afraid so Liz. DEA Agent Brian Flores has been let in to the task force so he could help us to catch Divine. He'll come in tomorrow."
[Meanwhile-The Genesis Bar]
A man was walking in to his bar and to his office and as soon as he gets close to the door he feels somebody who puts a gun on him as the door opens
"I love the fact that you always have been predictable Larry"
"What are you doing here Reddington?"
"I came here to know the location of your little brother"
Red was sitting down in the main chair smoking a Cuban while Lawrence was just standing there and he looked and saw two of his guards murdered
"If you don't want to end up like them then you better start talking Larry"
'Fuck you'
Red took no time and shot Lawrence in his knees. Lawrence fell down as Red laughed. Lawrence screamed in pain
"Where is he?"
"I think he's somewhere in Florida"
Red just looks at him
"It's just a shame that you sold your brother out after getting him out of prison Larry. I mean hell what type of brother are you?"
Larry just stayed silent.
"There is no point in me killing you; you'll bleed out to death most likely. Besides I figure your brother will kill you himself. Hmm maybe after you die I'll take over this bar because I'm sure I could make it prosper better that you ever could"
Then Red left with Dembe.
"You didn't shoot those guards"
"As long as he thinks that then I'm ok with it. Personally I got Darryl's location; we'll send the Intel to Agent Keen"
Then Red got in his Mercedes Benz and Dembe drove off.
{Back with Lawrence}
With all the power he could muster Lawrence took out his cell somebody kicked his cell out of his hand. Lawrence saw the figure.
"So you heard everything didn't you?"
The figure didn't say anything but Lawrence knew he was screwed and all the figure did was put documents in the floor and gave the pen for him to sign. Then as he finished signing the figure gave the documents to another person who walked in the room as the other person handed the gun to the figure then the figure shot him in the head.
"Why do you want another bar?"
"There has been a change of plans Wilbert. Tell Efrain and Omar, they have the night off and they should rest up in the warehouse, call Jerome and your brother."
It was Divine was dressed in all wearing all black but with no sweater and on her left arm in a cast with a supporter on strapped, she had a gun on her right hand and waiting until an older woman appeared and Wilbert pointed his gun at her
It was Mr. Kaplan and Divine told Wilbert to put his gun down.
"I was sent by Reddington"
"As long you don't say anything that I was here I'm good"- Divine says
"Why is that?"
"Remember Turkey, 2007"
Mr. Kaplan remembers and then says
"Ok get out of here then"
Divine and Wilbert got out as Mr. Kaplan cleaned out the scene.
[Liz]
She was getting out of a boat and was pissed, whatever it was, it wasn't good. She went out of the pier and got into her car and drove off. Then she went to another motel to check in and she organized everything she had back up and then she undressed and staying in a black tank top and black panties and went to bed
[2 am]
Liz starts to hear music and wakes up and sees a fedora and a cellphone next to her nightstand and she gets scared and aims her gun but no ammo came out of it and then panic as she turned on the lights. Then she was in shocked.
"Hello Love"
It was Divine standing in the corner of her room. Liz was just looking at Divine's eyes.
"I emptied it"- Divine says
Divine gave her a small smile but it was a genuine smile...a smile of warmth. Liz then sees how Divine is in a cast and Divine sees that and says
"Don't worry about it; the gun they used wasn't a high caliber. I should be good in 3 weeks or so."
Divine gets up and walks next to Liz slowly. Liz is just in a trance as Divine got a chair and sat next to Liz.
But somehow Liz snapped of her trance and she got up from bed and sat in it facing Divine face to face and then slapped her hard not once but twice. Divine just sat there and then said
"You aren't the first or the last to slap me"- Divine says as she looked at Liz's eyes deeply
"It was you who called me…the song, you knew"- Liz says keeping eye contact with her.
Divine laughed
"Well, I had to get back at you for what you did in the car. I mean you took me off guard so I thought to get even"
Liz got close to Divine
"You made a big mistake Brenda. You don't own me, I owe you. I know about you. The Elegant One, the famous New York Drug Lord"- Liz says as she whisperers it in Divine's ear
Then out of the blue Divine pulls Liz's hair back and kisses Liz's neck very sensually. Liz moans and says
"Bite me"
Divine does just that very softly though. Liz is turned on by this action.
"As I suspected"
Divine stops as what she's doing and Liz just looks at her.
"You are infatuated with me because of what I represent not because of the real me"
Divine was about to leave when Liz says
"Don't leave me"
Divine turns around and goes back to where she was. The room was dark and the light of the lamp reflected the sad look of Liz's eyes as Liz makes room in the Bed and says
"Lay next to me"
Divine just looked at Liz and then sat next to Liz and Liz hugged Divine as she embraced her as much as she could
"I heard about Reddington's associate getting captured by the FBI. Let me guess he was the bodyguard who followed you"
Liz smiled and Divine looked at her and laughed softly
"You have an evil streak to you love"
Liz sat in the bed next to Divine and just looked at her as Divine with her right hand caressed Liz's cheek and Liz's eyes soften. Then Divine got close to her and kissed her softly which Liz corresponded. Then the song changed to a familiar tone Liz knew.
It was the tune that Sam hummed to her, the same Red played in the music box. Liz stopped kissing her and just stared at Divine
"I like the song. It gives me a sense of peace; I've heard you've been stressed lately. I just want to bring you a peace of mind"
Liz just hugged her and closed her eyes as Divine hugged her
"I will always be your shadow Love."
"You have to tell me how is it that you know so much about me"
"If the time permits it"
Then Liz's cell rang
"It's ok if you want to answer it"
Liz stopped hugging Divine and looked at her phone and she put it on speaker phone
"Lizzie, I'm sorry to bug you but there has been a development, It turns out that Darryl Brown in somewhere in Florida in the county of Miami-Dade. I will forward the rest of the information tomorrow"
"You know I'm still not talking to you right"
"Ha come now Lizzie, you just spoke right now, I'm making progress with you"
"Whatever Red"
And she hangs up and puts her cell aside and looks at Divine
"I don't even want to know"
"Don't worry about it"- Liz says as she hugs Divine again.
"Love, Darryl is not in Florida, he's in India"
Now that got Liz's attention
"Red got faulty information from his brother Lawrence. If he's going to Florida, it's a trap"
"How do you know that?"
"Love, remember I was trained by Darryl. India is the best place to hide because you can break so many laws over there it's laughable. It also benefits him to stay over there using my name to keep him safe. Also Darryl and Rajesh Shukla 'The Sikh Bomber' were allies in many of the India bombings which I participated. Point is since Rajesh is dead and he found out that I control that territory, it makes sense he's there."
"So who's in Florida?"
"Most likely Edison. Florida has a lot of rural areas so essentially he's walking to Edison's MO."
Liz looks at Divine
"I already have someone delivering Intel to Red so he will be pointed in the right direction"
"Why are you helping him? You hate him, that's why you killed Naomi."
"I did hate him but I had a change of heart"
Liz looked at Divine in her eyes
"I will protect you and help you take down Darryl and Edison Love. I'm not the enemy as much as Red wants to hate me for killing his wife and put me as the enemy. Red means something in your life and that means I must protect him even though I hate the fact that he has your love and devotion"
Liz just kisses her and Divine corresponds
"You may say that you own people but it looks like I have you"
Divine smiled and said
"You always had me love"
Liz was getting sleepy and Divine gave her a warm smile and says
"I'll be here when you wake up later"
Liz smiled and hugged Divine and slept while Divine looked at her with softness in her eyes and smiled a little bit but then has a nostalgic look on her face.
If you only knew….you will hate me. I have to give up the fact that you'll be able to love me. If this as far as I go with you then so be it. All I ever wanted was Love…Be loved by someone, to feel like someone who gives a damn about me, someone I can trust, who I can give my everything to...someone who will love me. Nah who am I kidding…Despite being who I am, I will forever be The Undesirable…The Unloved.
