Author: I hope everyone is enjoying the story. Thanks for all the reviews:)
Brianna finally got to sleep after taking some sleeping pills that night. She just hoped that everyone one of her brothers came home. She went into a deep sleep where she started to dream of when she was little.
Flashback
" Brianna this is Ms. Evelyn she is going to take care of you!" Brianna who was only 6 years old. She was just a little girl when she was put into a foster home.
" Hey there beautiful!" Evelyn said leaning down to Briannas height. Brianna just stared at her and then looked around the house. " Your going to stay with me a while. We are going to have so much fun. You have 3 brothers that will look out for you too. Jack hadnt yet come into the picture. He was the last to show up and that was when Evelyn decided to adopt all the kids.
" Would you like to see your room?"
Brianna just nodded " Yes please!" Brianna followed Evelyn to her bedroom that was upstairs. She walked into her room and just started crying. She had dolls and a play house. She had her own clothes. Her mom took away everything from her when she lived with her. She told her she didnt deserve to have fun. Brianna looked down at the scar on her left arm, where her mother cut her because she wouldnt stop crying.
" Sweetheart why are you crying?" Evelyn asked her knocking her out of her trance
" Is this my stuff?" Brianna asked
" Yes all of it is yours. You can play with it as long as you want too"
Brianna smiled and walked over to her barbie house. She picked up the Barbies and started playing with them. Evelyn and the man walked downstairs to leave her to play. Suddenly someone opened the door. She turned around to see 2 black boys standing there. Her eyes got huge and she started screaming. Her dad was killed by black guys and she was scared they were coming for her. The oldest who was about 16 grabbed her shoulders " Its ok!" he told her " We arent going to hurt you!"
She nodded her head believing him " My name is Jeremiah. Whats yours?"
" Bri...Brianna!" Brianna responded sniffing a little from crying
" This is angel!"
She smiled again " Hey!" Angel said hugging her " How old are you?"
" Six!"
" Wow! Do you have any brothers or sisters?" Jeremiah asked
" No..."
" Well you do now!" he told her smiling " Ms. Evelyn is thinking about adopting us. Do you know what adopting is?"
Brianna shakes her head " Well its where she becomes our new mom. She will take care of us. You are going to like it here. She is a great woman."
" All of us?"
" Yes of course!"
Brianna smiled again " I get to keep all this stuff?"
" Yes!"
" You want to play with me?"
" Um...how about we go get a snack!" Jeremiah told her not wanting to play with barbies. Briannas eyes lit up.
End Flashback
Brianna opened her eyes to sunlight coming into her room. She must have slept all night. She leaned up out of bed and looked at the scar on her arm. She smiled. She heard everyone talking in the living room when she walked downstairs. As she walked in she saw Bobby sitting at the table with his shirt off. She knew something happend. She jogged over to him " What happened?" she asked seeing the blood
" Got attacked by a dog!"
" What?"
" Yeah...we found someone that knew something. His dogs attacked me"
" Are you ok?"
" Yeah...OWW!" he yelled. Sofi put alcohol on his cuts
" Dont be a pussy Bobby!" Sofi replied
" Hey cops at the house!" Angel yelled
" Bri go get me a jacket or something to cover my arm"
Brianna takes off running into the bathroom. She sees Mas bathrobe and brings it back to Bobby. " Are you serious?"
" Just put it on!" Brianna told him. She wraps it around him. Just then Lt. Green and Lt. Fowler walked into our house.
" Hey angel mind if we come in?" Green asked
" Your already in here. We like when the cops come to Mercer house. Makes us feel all cozy!" Angel said sounding annoyed. Angel walked into the living room to see Bobby in Mas bathrobe. He just stares at him.
" Wow! You look beautiful!" Green told him
" Yeah i had to fight Jack for it!" Bobby said smirking
Brianna giggled before Jack shot her a look " Brianna Mercer! How you holding up?" Green asked
" I'm fine Green! How are you?"
" I'm good...except do you guys know anything about a car crash last night?"
" No...what happened?" Brianna asked
" Bobby what happened to your hand?"
" Its hockey injury! You remember thos e days!"
" Yeah..."
" Wheres your car bobby?" Fowler asked
" We left it a Jeremiahs!" Sofi chimmed in
" Really?" Fowler asked
" Really!" Angel said sounding annoyed
" These boys last night wer gunned down. They were hired gun men. You guys dont know anything about this?" Green asked again
" Nope...hired gunmen huh?" Bobby asked
" Their car was flipped over after it looked like a highspeed chase. Then they were shot pointblank. Bobby if you know something you need to tell me. Dont go after this on your own"
" I told you i dont know anything"
" If ya'll keep knocking on the devils door someones goingt o answer you and i wont be there because ya'll will be dead somewhere. Just tell me what you know and let the professionals do their jobs!"
Bobby just looked at him and then shrugged " We are goin gto find out what you are doing and we will bring you down!" Fowler told them
" Really? Thats nice!" Angel told him
" You like your cute all you need is a little ass woopin that your father never gave you!" Fowler told Angel coming at him. Angel gets up to fight him before Brianna steps in between. " I think its time for you to leave. You arent going to find anything here!"
" If ya'll find anything just tell us. We will help!" Green told them before walking through the kitchen and out the door.
" What the hell is going on?" Brianna asked shoving Angel back on the couch " What did you do last night?"
" We found out who shot ma!" Bobby told her " They started shooting at us and then we got into a car chase. I rammed my car in them and flipped them. They shot ma!"
" You shot them?" Brianna asked
" Yes! They got what they deserved!"
" OMG! Bobby!"
" Brianna they killed our mother!" Jack told her " They deserved it..."
" Did you shoot someone too?"
" No!" Jack told her " I was in at the car."
" Did you get some sleep?" Angel asked changing the subject
" Yeah..." she told him " Wheres Jeremiah?"
" He went home. He didnt want anything to do with it" Bobby told her " He'll be over later!"
Brianna shakes her head before sitting down on the chair " Bri! Everything is going to be fine!" Jack told her
" You know what my worst fear is?" Brianna asked
" You guys not coming home after one of these things. You guys dont think."
" We did think! We thought that those guys need to die! And they did! Ma didnt do anything to them Bri! They shot her is cold blood and left her there. If you asked my i would have shot them over and over again until you couldnt tell what the hell they were!" Bobby told her. Brianna looked at him before nodding " Atleast you guys are ok!" she told them
Bobby smiled " We know how to handle ourselves."
" What else if there to do?" she asked
" We need to find out who sent them"
She rolls her eyes " They are going to come after us if we dont. We just killed their men. They are probably pissed off!" Angel told her
" Come on you guys we need to go!" Bobby told them getting up
" Where are you going now?" Brianna asked following him
" To the cons place!"
" What?" Brianna yelled again " Bobby..."
" Do i recall something about having dinner together? Because i seem to remember spending 2 hours in the kitchen" Sofi told Angel
" Angel lets go!" Bobby yelled
" Sofi baby..." Angel started
" Angel you promise that this time, things would be different" Sofi wined
" aww mami you breakin mi corazon" Bobby said holding his heart
" Dont start with me Bobby!" Sofi threatened
" Come on man lets go!" Bobby told Angel
" Give me 15 minutes!" Angel begged
" Gua come on Jack!" Bobby told him rolling his eyes
" Bobby I am coming with you!" Brianna told him
" Bri..."
" Dont argue! I'm coming!" she told him
" Fine lets go!" They get into the car and drive over to a house. " Brianna if anyone shows up I want you to run. Do you hear me?" he demanded
Brianna shakes her head. They get out of the car. Bobby breaks the glass to the door before unlocking it. They walk in " You guys find whatever you think will be useful" Bobby told them. He walks to the back room and starts looking around
" What the hell are we looking for?" Brianna whispered
" Anything that ties to mom" Jack told her. " Just stay with me" he held out his hand and she grabbed it. They went into what looked like an office. He finally let go of her hand and began looking through the drawer. They find a camera on the desk. Brianna picked it up but before she could look at the pics Bobby comes in " Are you screwin around?" he asked Jack who was looking at the CDs " Did you find anything?"
" Camera!" Brianna said holding it up
" What did you get?" Jack asked
" Supplies!" Bobby said smirking " Come on lets go!" Ten minutes later they pulled up to the house. It looked like no one was there. Everything was dark. Bobby was the first to walk up the steps. Jack held onto Brianna to protect her just in case someone was in the house. Briannas hearts start racing. She closes her eyes and lets Jack lead her. He knew she was scared so he held her tight. Bobby opened the door and called out to Angel but there was no reply. " You guys stay here!" he demanded before disappearing into the house.
" Bri you ok?" Jack asked
" yeah...its really cold out here!"
" Yeah..." Jack was starting to say something but then Bobby comes out
" Everything is ok...you can come in. I think Angel just left. I'll call him and see if everything is ok"
Shivering Jack and Brianna walk inside the house. A few hours later Jerry comes walking in " What are you doing?" he asked Bobby
" Taxes!" Bobby answered with a smile. He kept pulling out guns that he stole from the killers house. Just then Angel walked in with a pissed off look on his face
" Where the hell have you been Angel? I have been calling you for 2 hours!" Bobby roared
" Sorry I had something to do...its was quite interesting" he said eying Jeremiah. Jerem just looked down to the ground
" OMG!" Brianna yelled. She was looking at the camera. Jack ripped it out of her hand and just stared at it.
" What is it?" Bobby asked
" You remember that guy that gave us moms things in that box?" Brianna replied " He's in these pictures!"
" Bobby he said he only met her once!" Jack replied
" Well looks like we need to pay him a little visit!" Bobby answered " Come on lets go!"
" Are you serious?" Jeremiah yelled " We cant just go to this mans house!"
" Jerry he lied to us!" Bobby explained " I am going to get to the bottom of this"
" You coming?" Angel asked coldly
" Yeah someone needs to watch out for you clowns!" Jerry replied grabbing his coat
" Who you calling clowns?" Angel asked
