Chapter ten-The Time to hesitate is through

"M-master Butterfly…" Butterfly and the Jeckel Brothers looked to the entrance to the room to see the Great Milenko standing before them. He was horribly bloody and his clothes where too torn and tattered to qualify as something wearable.

"Holy shit Milenko!" exclaimed Jack. "How the hell you survive that fall?"

"It took…e-everything I had to do it."

Butterfly watched Milenko thoughtfully for a moment then stood up and walked over to the shell of a man before him. "I'm amazed to see your still alive…looks like you posses a quality that your late jokers card lacked."

"Thank you," replied Milenko his voice growing weaker and more strained by the moment.

"But still…you went against my order to kill them on sight and by doing so threw you into an unfavorable light. Your weakening and quite pathetic condition has done little more then seal your fate. It's been nice knowing you."

"But I-ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!" Milenko's voice returned to it's full extent long enough for him to cry out in agony as Butterfly placed a hand on his shoulder and blue lightening began swirling all around him. After a minute Butterfly lifted his hand up and stood back as Milenko fell to the ground and crumbled into dust on impact.

"Given what we have just seen I now believe more than ever that we can not afford to simply let them wander the carnival," said Butterfly facing Jake and Jack Jeckel. "We've got Ash at our mercy and they are indeed near a store. I want you two to lead a nice little ambush for them. Bring along as many men as you see fit. I don't want them killed though…simply bring them here. I'd like to kill Ash and ICP myself especially Ash."

"What about the girl?" asked Jake cracking his knuckles.

"Do whatever you want to here." The Butterfly gave an eerie smile. "I'm sure you have a good imagination on how to handle a young girl."

"I think we can handle it," Jake turned to Jack. "How bout it Jack?"

"Hell yeah,"

"Don't return without them," warned the Butterfly his eyes turning serious.

"No problem."

"Piece-o-fucking cake!" the two turned and walked out the door. Butterfly watched them walk away and stood up throwing some punches in the air and muttering Somewhere over the rainbow.
