Chapter sixteen:

Lorine waits for a few moments then knocks on the door. She takes a step back as she waits for an answer. She perks up upon hearing some footsteps then a pause. She smiles hoping to keep the friend distracted with her.

The door is quickly unlocked and swung open revealing the friend that Lorine had managed to get the address of.

The friend has dyed dark purple medium length hair, his favourite red contacts in hiding his true eyes, a black tank top, black basketball shorts with a grey stripe on the outside side of his leg, and no shoes or socks on. He is just a little shorter than Lorine herself. "You came!" He greets excitedly and Lorine gives him a little giggle.

"Of course I did." Lorine tells the man who then moves to let her inside.

"Come on in. Feel free to make yourself at home." The friend invites her verbally as well.

"Thank you Akio." Lorine steps inside allowing the man to close the door behind her. She takes off her shoes and heads to the living room which is the first room someone comes into from the front door.

The back of the brown couch is facing whoever just stepped into the home, a flatscreen TV mounted on the wall above a display case with a bunch of gaming equipment.

"Do you want me to get you anything?" Akio questions moving to stand to be facing Lorine which she finds has his back to the area that might lead to the back.

"No." Lorine smiles more putting on her charm as she reaches out only to begin rubbing the mans shoulder causing his eyes to glance at it.

Akio looks back to her a smile growing wider on his face. He looks Lorine up and down not noticing Razzy, who had found a window that was open, sneaking up behind him with a gun. "Yeah." He can't help it and he begins to reach for the woman in front of him breast. He freezes when Razzy touches the barrel of the pistol against his head.

"Make one more movement and I'll blow your brains out." Razzy warns as Lorine moves away from Akio.

Akio blinks wide eyed at Lorine who pulls out her own weapon she had been hiding under her shirt. "You… You were in on this?"

"The whole time." Lorine coldly confirms now glaring at the man she had seduced with a disappointing icy look. She raises her weapon. "We came here for you."

"If you kill me. Ide will come after you." Akio tries to warn them hoping that they'll leave. "He has a whole group who follow him. They'll kill you."

"I've dealt with Ide before." Razzy informs Akio pushing the barrel of the gun harder into the back of the mans head. "I am not scared of him. Now. There is something that I need to know from you." He informs the man who wants to turn around though is afraid to do so with the gun aimed at him. "Are you still in contact with the lady who had helped pay for the hit on one of my men?" He demands then waits hoping for an answer of confirmation.

"No. We went our separate ways after she helped pay for the hit." Akio informs him which does disappoint Razzy at hearing this. "She wasn't interested in staying in contact."

"Well that is too bad for you then." Razzy responds as Lorine heads to look around the house for anything that might help. He shoots Akio in the back of the head causing him to fall forward hitting the ground hard. He unscrews the silencer on the barrel of his gun. He then searches the man for his cellphone. He almost laughs finding it without a lock on it. He gets into the phone and goes through the messages. He doesn't find anything other than some texts about what he had done to Ide. He turns as Lorine approaches him.

"He has a computer but it is locked." Lorine tells Razzy who then turns and does a check of emails.

"Well there is nothing showing that he really didn't keep in contact with the woman. We will have to continue our search." Razzy informs Lorine then the two look to the cellphone as it makes a small ding. "Ide just messaged this man." He mentions to her and reads the message out loud. "Hey. I do hope that it went well. I haven't heard anything about if it really was completed or not. Though I have been thinking of moving in if you get the confirmation. They'll be busy dealing with that. So if you get that confirmation let me know so I can decide how to make my move." He frowns after having hearing himself read that message. "Of fucking course he would think that way." He growls through his clenched teeth.

"Hold on Razzy."

Razzy turns to look to Lorine curiously. He keeps his angered expression tucked away from her since she has been a big help with all of this.

"Ide has no idea that Akio is dead. And that we have his cellphone. We can use this to our advantage." Lorine points out putting her gun away. "I mean I can work on looking for the other involved in the shooting on Kaoru. You could lure Ide into a trap. You could use that as an advantage however you want. We could maybe take over his territory."

"Hm." Razzy looks back to the message thoughtfully at hearing this idea. "It is a good idea. I'll converse with Ide acting as Akio. If we are going to possibly do this we will have to do so quickly. I will prepare some of the other members just in case Ide doesn't come alone." His eyes flicker back to Lorine who is listening to what he has to say. "See if we can hide his body quickly. Just somewhere less likely to be spotted."

Lorine nods her head and heads to look around the home for such a place to hide the body for now.

Razzy in the meantime starts typing the message to Ide saying it quietly to himself as he does so. "That could be a good idea. I will keep you updated for if I get the confirmation of the kill. Then maybe we can meet. I do have faith that I should get it soon if he is going to send it." He sends it and after a few moments gets a message back. He reads it silently to himself this time.

Cool. Then our next hang out will be when we plan after you get the confirmation. If it takes too long let me know and we can meet sooner.

Razzy sends a text of confirmation to that then turns to Lorine who comes back.

"We can roll him down the stairs. The windows are small and covered down there." Lorine informs Razzy who puts Akio's cellphone in his pocket.

"Lets do it." Razzy helps out in doing this then after making sure the windows are closed, the two leave the house stealing the keys to lock it as if Akio isn't home. He doesn't want to risk someone finding the door unlocked and heading inside. He has to prolong the discovery of Akio being dead, so he can use it to his advantage.
