It didn't take long for Suzie to confirm what they had suspected already: that the Folleni Mafia were responsible for the deaths of both Triad warlords.
"I knew it!" exclaimed John.
"Of course you did, Suzie just told us." Jason smirked.
"Shut up!" groaned John.
"We better stock up on ammunition if we're going to take on the Mafia at this rate. The Folleni Family are probably going to pile on the men to guard their villa, now that I bet their Don, Giorgio Folleni or whatever now knows what's going on." Jason said.
"Yeah; a single MP5 isn't going to do the trick." John replied.
Jason suggested the AmmuNation Weapons Challenge, and they drove over to AmmuNation, where John won rather easily, earning them some AK-47 ammo, which they would need, due to its firepower, and the way it could rout enemies was a vital aspect.
"We should export some cars too-get ourselves some easy cash." Jason said after they headed out of AmmuNation, both holding Kalashnikov assault rifles.
"Yeah. What are they exporting?" asked John.
"Quite a lot. The biggest price-tag is Super GT-that could net us $105,000."
"Shit, isn't that a Super GT over there?" asked John.
They rushed over to the sports car, jacking it and punching the driver unconscious, before they took it to the export garage, netting a huge slice of cash, but Jason felt rather guilty of stealing the guy's car, so afterwards, he left $85,000 in the man's wallet-tucked away in his pocket as he lied down on the docks, so he could buy himself a new car, perhaps a Bullet or an Infernus. $20K was enough for weapons anyway.
Finally, they drove back to Jason's apartment, stocked up with ammo, but they were so tired that they basically collapsed on the beds. But they were going to get woken up sooner or later.
"Okay, we are ready, and moving in at the signal, Don," called the pilot of the helicopter.
Giorgio Folleni had arranged for the bombing of the apartment which the son of the Triad warlord they had killed last year apparently lived in. Then, Folleni hitmen would follow up and mop up just in case. Giorgio Folleni chuckled as he gave the signal.
"Okay, take them out."
A single Leviathan raced towards the apartment, and dropped a solitary bomb with precision on the top. There was a huge explosion, and the top of the building almost immediately began to set on fire. As soon as the bomb had set off, the four Mavericks circled over, and slowly, they dropped the Mafia men down on the apartment.
Jason was woken up by a huge explosion, and he could almost hear the flames licking and bearing down on the apartment. The fire had really only started on the top, but they needed to get the other people out: the Mafia couldn't just kill the innocent people.
"Shit! John? JOHN, WAKE UP!" shouted Jason right next to his friend's ear.
"What the fuck! Oh shit, is that a fire?" mumbled John.
"Yes, it fucking is! Let's get out of here! I bet it's the Mafia!"
They gathered up their weapons and charged out of their apartment. They headed to the bottom level, where somehow, most of the people in the apartment were already down there.
"Hey, you people, you better get out of here." Jason told the people.
They seemed to agree, and they rushed off in different directions.
"Hey, isn't that a chopper?" asked John, pointing to the roof.
Jason spotted the Mavericks deploying the Mafia men circling around the burning building. He fired a burst at one, and the Maverick got struck somewhere important, jamming the controls and sending the Maverick spinning down, crashing and blowing up on the roof, where the Mafia barely managed to dodge.
"Okay, we gotta clear the place out with Mafia. The SWAT will be here soon, but we don't want to get caught in the crossfire, so let's be quick!" Jason said to John.
John nodded, and they ran into the building. The first of the Mafia assault team charged down the stairs, and Jason sent him tumbling with a single bullet to the head. Three more Mafia streamed in, holding AK-47s. Jason took the first down before he could react. But the other two proved a problem. They aggressively sprayed at Jason and John, but they missed all of their shots as Jason and John dived around. Eventually, the scuffle ended when Jason and John almost simultaneously filled the two Mafia men with lead. They quickly reloaded their weapons as they made their way up to the first floor of units.
There were three floors to clear out. And sixteen Mafia were lurking about. But the problem was the fire. The top three floors were going to be hard if there was fire going on, and John helpfully found a fire extinguisher, which he managed to barely carry at his waist. He still spotted two Mafia men searching one unit, and he dropped his fire extinguisher, Jason following him into the unit. They dived behind a couch as they ran in, and heard the bullets whistle over their heads and strike the walls behind him.
Quickly, Jason ducked up and quickly capped the two Mafia men with a sweep of AK-47 bullets, riddling a series of photos at the back of the room with bullets as well. But at least they went down. Jason and John grabbed the two AK-47s, and took the clips out of them, shoving them in their pocket. But just as they were about to reload, three more Mafia men came charging into the unit. Jason and John dived behind a table, and watched another series of bullets narrowly miss them.
They continued to work their way through the Mafia, as they picked the three men off with headshots, and once again, took their ammunition before properly reloading this time.
"Hey, I can see a Police Maverick circling! That's the SWAT! I think they're checking out this apartment. We should get outta here." John said.
Jason agreed, and they made their way out. John grabbed the fire extinguisher just in case, and he took out his MP5.
The SWAT was deploying assault teams on the roof as well and Jason and John rushed out of the front entrance of the building, over to where their Admiral was parked, and where two SWAT helicopters had SWAT dropping out, and news helicopter circled over. The keys were gone, but the windows were open, and they dived in, like if it was a ritual, before they drove off into the night.
As the Admiral sped along the streets of night-time Liberty City, Jason switched the radio to WCTR-Liberty City. They were casting it from Los Santos of course, well just the news part though.
"This is Leanne Forget, WCTR News. Breaking news from Liberty City, just half an hour ago, a Leviathan military helicopter bombed an apartment in Chinatown. SWAT Teams are currently investigating and searching the apartment for involvement. Michael Leadley, our Liberty City correspondent reports,"
"Well, Leanne, the city's "SWAT Teams" are currently investigating…Hahaha, investigating…what a funny word!"
"Michael, are you drinking?"
"Oh no, and they'll be giving more updates later tonight. Hey, give me back my microphone!"
"Currently we have no more information."
"With other news…"
Jason turned off the radio and said:
"Where should we stay now?"
"I guess in my house? It's been deserted for….who knows how long, but we could pick the lock open or get a locksmith or something." John replied.
Jason nodded, and gave a quick yawn, before they continued on to John's old house.
"Still live around Hepburn Heights?" asked Jason.
"Yeah. You know, haven't moved since I was six, and I went off to San Fierro at seventeen." John replied.
They drove over to John's house, and they decided to knock on the door, and there might even be somebody living there. The door opened, and John was almost knocked over by a hug.
"John!" screamed a female voice.
Jason grinned. It was John's little sister, Kate, though you could hardly say she was little anymore. She was a tall, sort of a kinky girl, and she was still in high school, probably dating somebody.
"Hi…sis…" groaned John, blushing with embarrassment.
"Hey, it's Jason as well!" smiled Kate.
"Look, Kate, it's nice of you, but could we kind of stay here?"
Kate's smile disappeared, and a curious face went on.
"Turn on the TV." Jason told her.
She nodded, and bounced over to the television, where they were reporting the news. A look of horror went over her face.
"Jason, is that your apartment?" she asked.
Jason nodded. Kate immediately let them sleep in the two spare rooms, and after greeting John's aunt, they fell down into another deep sleep.
