Lily sat on top of one of the picnic tables smoking a cigarette and munching on some chips. She had already gotten all of her things together. As well as given some of her extra supplies to the club. She was trying to relax, but it wasn't working very well. Since telling Jax one of her deepest secrets, she felt a little more exposed. Sure most of SAMTAC knew what happened to her, but she also hadn't who she was from them.

The TM lot was crawling with people. Everyone was trying to prepare for their assault against the Horsemen. SAMCRO and SAMTAC were gathering all the weapons and supplies when Alverez and his Mayan charter rolled through the gates.

Alverez was greeted by Jax and Chibs. Lily was too far away to hear what they were saying but everything seemed to be civil. They were business partners afterall. Jax and Chibs headed back into the clubhouse, leaving the Mayans with their bikes. That's when Alverez spotted Lily and slowly made his way too her.

"I heard this was your doing," he said, taking a seat next to her.

She eyed him carefully. Since she had met him a few weeks ago, he hadn't been that friendly towards her. She didnt blame him; all he knew was that she was a gun for hire. "I contributed," she said simply.

He chuckled. "That' not what I heard." He folded his hands in front of him. "I heard that this is happening all because of you."

She sighed and snubbed out her cigarette. "Galindo?" she asked. She already knew that's where he heard it from. As much as she liked Jax, he had a habit of taking credit for ideas that wasn't his.

"Si," Alverez nodded. "I never thought it would be a woman that would have Sons, Mayans, and the Galindo cartel working together."

"We all have something to lose if this doesn't work."

"Except for you," he said pointedly. "If this doesn't go our way, you can just go back to your old life since Death Dealers have no loyalties."

She shook her head in disgust. She nodded towards to Jax who was walking out of the clubhouse with Happy, Bobby, Tig, Chibs, and Opie following him. "They are my family. Even if I haven't seen some of them for 15 years, I will fight for them."

"We'll see about that," Alverez said before he went back to his men and bikes.

Jax and the rest of the Sons went to Alverez. Except Happy, who went straight to Lily. She stood as Happy got closer. His arms went around her waist, surprising her. Her hands rested on his chest. She could feel the Kevlar vest under her fingers.

"I see you got my gift," she smirked.

"Yeah, I don't even want to know how much it cost you," he said tightening the velcro straps on her own vest.

"Always so cheap," she commented. "That reminds me. I need to buy condoms so you don't have to reuse them."

"Shut up, woman," he said before crashing his lips into hers. They only broke apart when they heard the wolf whistles from the guys. "So much for keeping this quiet."

She raised her eyebrows. "If you wanted to keep it quiet, you shouldn't have kissed me." She brushed her fingertips over his lips.

He smirked. He wanted to kiss her again, but he knew all eyes were on them. "I'll deal with you later," he growled.

"You better," she whispered. She broke away from him and headed towards his bike.

Bikes began to come to life all around them. Happy handed her helmet to her before starting up his own bike. Before climbing onto the back of the Harley, she took a moment to look around the compound. There was a chance she wasn't going to see this place again. Although, she had gone 15 years without seeing it before, it had once been a safe haven for her.

She caught sight of Gemma standing in the garage doorway quickly wiping away tears. Gemma saw Lily watching her. In a un Gemma like fashion, Gemma gave a small wave goodbye.

They parked a ways away from the Horsemen's headquarters to not let them hear all the bikes. The walk through the woods was a little longer than Lily liked. Especially when she was carrying 20 lbs of equipment.

It wasn't much further until they reached the edge of the clearing. The building that was suppose to be the Horsemen headquarters was in sight. Jax ordered everyone to spread out around the building. Then they waited until the time was right.

Lily found a stump to sit on while they waited. Happy stood within arms reach from her on high alert. Opie stood with Jax smoking and whispering to each other. It was so dark she couldn't see anyone else, but she could hear whispering around them.

She looked up to the sky to see if she could see any stars, but instead she felt a sprinkle of rain on her face. "Of course, it's gonna fucking rain," she muttered to herself.

"How do we know that this Adam guy is going to be here?" Happy asked, his eyes not leaving the door to the building. Since finding out what Adam had done to Lily, he had wanted to add another smiley face to his collection.

"We don't," she sighed. "But if I were him, it's where I'd be." Happy looked to in question for just a moment before returning his attention back to the building. "They have the meet with the Castillo cartel tonight. Adam may be confident, but I don't think he would chance getting arrested."

"But why would he be here?" Jax asked.

She smiled. "Where are you guys on a Friday night?" she asked pointedly. "At your clubhouse."

"She's not wrong," Opie chuckled.

"Even if he's not here, we're gonna wipe out the majority of his club tonight. He won't be able to do much," Lily explained. "He would be easy to find."

Happy didn't understand how she was so easy going about it. This Adam guy had tried to destroy the club. He had killed Tara just to make a point, and he had let his men beat the shit out of Lily. They needed to make sure he got what he deserved.

Lily felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She pulled it out. "The DEA's raiding the meet. Galindo's men are hitting Castillo's warehouses." She put her phone back in her pocket and stood up. "If we're going to do this, it's need to be now."

Jax nodded. He motioned for everyone to prepare to enter the building. The building had two doors. So the plan was to have two teams each taking a door. No one would be able to get past them that way.

Lily was going to entering with the majority of SAMCRO. Hap, Opie, Tig, Chibs, Juice, and Quinn were all lining up behind Jax. Lily was at the back, but she was not alone. She was the only thing separating SAMCRO from two of Galindo's men. There was two others with the other team. They weren't entering with them. They were just there to make sure no Horsemen made it out alive.

Jax and the rest of them had ignored the cartel members. She didn't blame them. They were a little on the scary side, but they were only there to help.

She tucked the butt of the rifle into her shoulder. She put everything out of her mind. Her feelings for Happy. Her worries about her promises to Galindo. Her hatred for Clay. None of that mattered right now. The only thing that mattered was putting down as many Horsemen as she could.

Lily followed behind Happy as they entered the building. She kept her eyes open as they searched the rooms. Each room they came to was empty as the last. They came to stairs that led to the floor above. Jax motioned for Happy and Lily to search upstairs.

As they split off from the group to search, they found even more empty rooms. Lily was starting to get worried. It was starting to feel more and more like a trap.

"Where the fuck is everyone?" Happy questioned after finding another empty room.

"Something isn't right," Lily mumbled, looking further into the room. "They're suppose to be here!"She kicked the door shut in anger. "My intel was good!"

"Lily," Hap said quietly. He nodded towards the stack of papers on the desk in the room.

She went closer to the desk to investigate. She shuffled through the papers. "What the hell are they planning?" she said as she looked through more papers.

"What is it?" Happy asked, looking over her shoulder.

"They are planning on running drugs and guns up and down the west coast. From Mexico to Canada," she explained.

"So what?" Happy grumbled. "That's basically what we do."

She rolled her eyes. "You help distribute coke for the cartel and sell guns for the IRA," she said. "The Horsemen are basically setting up a supply line, but with how much they are planning to move, it would be more than double what comes into the states now."

"Does it matter? If everything goes to plan, they won't be a problem."

She pursed her lips. She didn't buy that. Even if they did take care of the Horsemen, whoever they planned on selling to would be coming to look for their product.

There was a large crash somewhere else in the warehouse that made both of them jump. They brought their rifles. Happy stepped out of the doorway scanning the hallway.

When he saw nothing, he turned back to Lily. "Stay here," he ordered.

Before she had time to argue, he was gone. She huffed in annoyance. She went back behind the desk and started looking through everything again. She was gonna find something that would be useful. A name caught her eye in the mess of papers, but before she could investigate further, a large figure appeared in the doorway.

She reached for her pistol on her hip, but stopped when she recognized the long beard. "Opie," she sighed. "What the hell are you doing up here?"

"I'm clearing the building. Nobody is here," he explained. "What are you doing here still?"

She motioned to the messy desk in front of her. "Trying to find some answers."

"We need to get out of here. Something isn't right," Opie said, coming to her side. "Jax sent me to get everyone out so we can regroup." He tried to read over her shoulder to figure out what she was so focused on.

Suddenly, gunfire echoed through the empty warehouse causing both of them to bring their rifles up.

"You sure there is no one here?" she asked as she followed Opie down the hall.

"Don't be a smart ass," he mumbled as they quickly sweeped the building. They could till hear the gunshots but hadn't run into anyone. The further they went, they realized it was coming from outside.

When it went quiet, Lily and Opie shared a look. Silently telling each other to get ready for whatever was on the other side of the door. Opie nodded in acknowledgement before kicking the main door open. Lily followed Opie, but ran right into the back of him when he stopped.

"Why are you stopping?" she asked. She peaked around Opie's large frame and saw Horsemen pointing guns at them. "Oh, shit."

Thanks for reading! I promise I'm gonna try to update more. Writing can be a bitch sometimes.
