The next morning, CJ woke up and stretched. He looked at his clock. It was 10:34 AM.
Damn! CJ thought. I sure had one hell of a night to be sleeping this late!
So CJ quickly got dressed and headed out of the apartment building. He hopped inside his parked car and drove onto the road. He felt he should see Woozie and his Triad gang one more time before handling everything else. So he drove to Chinatown and parked his car in front of the betting shop.
He hopped out of the vehicle and walked inside the building. He made his way up the steps when he ran into Woozie and the other Triads.
"Woozie, my man!" CJ greeted.
"CJ," Woozie replied. "You caught me on the way out."
"Business?" CJ asked.
"This is the big one!" Woozie told him. "This is the one that is going to seal my place in the Red Gecko Tong! But something's come up, and I've got to things it out myself."
Just then, Woozie's cellphone rang.
"Excuse me," he said as he pulled the phone out of his pocket to answer it.
"Little Lion," Woozie answered, "what's the news? Damn. Why today of all days? OK shit. Take Guppy and go check it out."
Woozie hung up and stored his phone back inside his pocket.
"Trouble?" CJ asked.
"The Da Nang Boys are arriving today on a container ship," Woozie responded. "Little Lion's gone check it out - I really have to go too."
Woozie then proceeded to leave, but CJ slowed him down.
"Hey man, look," CJ told him. "Don't even trip. I'm gonna handle this one for you, alright?"
"Thanks, my friend," Woozie replied gratefully. "Your help and friendship has been invaluable to me."
"Thanks man," CJ replied. "Where the other guys?"
"Oh, they're getting a helicopter to do a couple of flybys of the ship," Woozie answered. "Look - if everything goes well, I'll call you in a week or so and invite you to my new spot."
Woozie then turned to leave, and later on, CJ met the Little Lion in the helicopter on top of the building. CJ entered the helicopter. He had on his wetsuit and snorkel just in case the plan would backfire.
"Hey CJ, what are you doing here?" Little Lion asked as he started the helicopter.
"Just bumped into Woozie on the way out," CJ answered as the helicopter started to take up in the air. "He filled me in. I thought I'd roll with you."
"Well we ain't rolling," Little Lion replied as the helicopter finally took off. "We're whirling! Strap in and strap up!"
He then flew the helicopter up the air and over the ocean.
"Where we headed?!" CJ shouted.
"To the boat!" Little Lion replied vociferously. "It's moored out in the bay!"
"Oh yeah, I see it!" CJ bellowed as the helicopter finally approached the ship.
"You better lock and load!" Little Lion yelled. "They'll be on their guard!"
"Locked and loaded!" CJ replied as he fired at the gangs on the ship with a minigun.
"Holy fuck, they're gunning for us already!" Little Lion shouted in a panicking tone as the gangs fired back.
"I see 'em!" CJ replied, continuing to fire back.
"They're all over the containers!" Little Lion shouted.
"I got 'em man, right in my sight!" CJ replied.
"Hit those Da Nang bastards!" Little Lion shouted as CJ continued firing with the minigun.
Just then, Little Lion spotted a gang member welding a rocket launcher.
"RPG!" Little Lion chanted. "RPG!"
"Where?!" CJ asked. "Which side?!"
But it was too late. The bullet had nailed the helicopter, which was now tumbling down.
"We're hit!" Little Lion shouted. " We're going down! Brace for impact!"
CJ hopped out of the helicopter and splashed into the water. he swam just in time to avoid the tumbling helicopter crashing into the river.
The helicopter was now destroyed, and Little Lion was killed on the impact.
"Oh man, that hurt!" CJ groaned. "Damn, lost everything but my blade."
Without another word, CJ swam to the freighter ship and climbed up the ladder. Little did he know, the Da Nang Boys were searching for him.
"Do you see any survivors?" one of them asked.
"No," the other member disagreed. "Nobody getting out of that alive."
Little did he know, however, CJ had climbed into the freighter, lifted up his snorkel, and stealthily stabbed him on the shoulder. He grabbed the dead member's shotgun and continued penetrating through the freighters. He killed the gang member and stole most of their weapons.
As he made his way into the basement of the ship, he discovered the refugee guard talking to someone inside a freight.
"Keep it down, you want to bring the Snakehead down here?" he asked.
"Not long until we're drinking cola in the free West, eh?" one of the members bragged as he and the other members walked around the place. Then one of them spotted CJ.
"Hey, who the fuck are you?" one of them asked as he and the other gang fired at CJ.
CJ took cover and fired at the gang, killing them. He slowly penetrated through the room, where more gang members fired at him. CJ killed each and every one of them as he continued walking.
"Stick this up your ass!" the guard shouted, throwing a hand grenade. CJ barely dodged the explosion and killed the guard.
As he finally got to the freight, he shot the lock, freeing the prisoners inside.
"Hey you," one of them said, "help us! Hey, please, help us!"
"Please," another member added. "The Snakehead tricked us, we're prisoners. Please help us escape! The Snakehead is up on the bridge..."
As CJ guided the prisoners, he climbed out of the basement and onto the opening of the ship, where he killed the remaining members of the Da Nang Boys. He made his way to the bridge and confronted the Snakehead inside the generator room.
"Enough!" the Snakehead bellowed, welding a katana. "We settle this here!"
He handed CJ a katana of his own and the two dueled. The battle lasted for five minutes, as each of them swung their weapons at each other and doing moves to dodge the blade of each other's. CJ remembered the martial arts skills his trainer back at San Fierro taught him and used it against the Snakehead, which caused CJ to impale him through his eye, causing him to drop dead on the floor.
CJ stared down at the Snakehead's corpse and panted hard to catch his breath. He went back outside the ship to meet the refugees. They later exited the ship and hopped onto dinghies.
"Thank you for everything!" one of them said, and they all rode off. CJ sighed in relief. He was finally finished dealing with the Da Nang Boys and saw Jizzy's club ahead. This gave him enough time to do more jobs with the Loco Syndicate. So CJ rode to shore and hopped out of the dinghy. He walked onto the surface, slipped off his wetsuit and snorkel, and headed straight to Jizzy's club.
