Chapter 12:
Approaching LP & Harmony, Williamsburg
Brooklyn, New York
1618 Hours
Jameson and the rest of the team were on their way to take down Jack Malevsky and his corrupt band of cops.
Joe, Antonio and Kate Beckett's team were positioned outside of the bar as they waited for the entirety of the team to arrive which was the last thing he had heard when they were enroute.
Jameson had a personal reason for wanting to be the first one out of his friends in the door. He wanted Michel Malevsky's head on a platter for faking an eviction notice.
He steadied his grip on the M9 Beretta as he softly counted to 10, in a bid to reign in his Italian temper.

LP & Harmony, Williamsburg
Brooklyn, New York
1625 Hours
At the LP & Harmony bar in Williamsburg, Jack Malevsky and the four men (Atwater, McCluskey, Chapin and Jackson) that participated with him on a previous raid that had happened, they all arrived in their car's unknown to them that Joe, Antonio and Kate Beckett's team were watching them.
Malevsky opened the trunk as he pulled out two bags, one he passed off to McCluskey as he took the other one himself. He looked around as he said, "You weren't followed were you, Chapin?"
"Not that I know off. Why?" Chapin asked. Malevsky then shrugged, "Maybe my imagination. But I can't help but feel somethin's off."
McCluskey then looked around as he said, "Yeah, I feel it too. Probably nothin'."
Malevsky then looked up, unknown to him… a sniper rifle had its bead on him, the sniper took an adjusting breath as he adjusted the sight on him. He then said to himself, "Not your day to die. But your brother… his day's here."
The unknown Soldier pulled out of the scope as he turned to Michel Malevsky who was bound and gagged. He then ripped the gag out of his mouth and snarled, "Tell me how to overrule the eviction notice on the Bacciarelli household?!"
"Screw you." Malevsky breathed out.
The Soldier growled an animal-like snarl, he pulled out a combat knife as he aimed the point towards the man's eyelid, the life in the man's dark blue eyes was nothing more than darkness as he said, "Fine! I'll show you things worse than death."
The man went about torturing him slowly as the muffled screams into the gag went unheard. The man then thought to himself, "The allure of the darkness is powerful and magnificent, that even the purest of hearts are drawn to its beauty."

LP & Harmony, Williamsburg
Brooklyn, New York
1630 Hours
The sun began to set on Brooklyn, the dark SUV pulled up to the sidewalk, Detective Johnson opened up the door, Joe I, Tommaso, Joe II and Chief Donarelli stepped out of the SUV.
Joe stepped out of his truck accompanied by Salvatore, Marco who carried rifles, Luigi and Antonio carried pistols. Luigi's was a SIG Sauer P226, Antonio's was a MEU (SOC) 45.
Thomas and Jameson stepped out of Jameson's car as the pair readied their rifles. Mike and Giuseppe cocked their pistols.
Robert Cole, Bobby Thompson and Daniele Rossi and Leo Capelli pulled out their pistols holding them in two hands. Nate Dempsey followed suit as he held an assault rifle in his hands.
Beckett's team and a team of NYPD ESU got out as well. Everyone held a determined look on their faces. Thomas then looked as he said, "Everyone ready?!"
"Solid!" Giuseppe said, many murmured their agreements as Thomas said, "Let's do this!"
Chief Donarelli then called out, "ESU, Detective Beckett's team, enter from the 2 sides, Daniele, Luigi, Leo, Bobby and Mike, hold position out here!"
The ESU Team and the Donarelli men including Giuseppe echoed acknowledgements. The ESU team entered the building first hitting the entrances with Beckett's team.
The first man through the door was Esposito who said, "NYPD, drop your guns!"
"Nobody move, get those hands up!" Beckett ordered.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The corrupt cops were stunned as they were surrounded by the NYPD including several plain clothes civilians who held military weaponry, Antonio followed behind and then shouted, "Get those hands up, I see you move an inch, it'll be your last."
Joe then grabbed a dirty cop and pushed him towards the pool table before saying, "Get you ass over there!"
Thomas held his rifle on Jack Malevsky who inched closer to his holster as he said, "Feelin' lucky, punk?!"
Joe I and the chiefs all walked in as Antonio said, "There's 2 members unaccounted for, sir."
Beckett then said, "Michel Malevsky and Eddie Chapin are unaccounted for."
Antonio turned to Malevsky whose eyes widened in fear as he said, "Get him away from me. Get him away from me!"
"What's he blubbering like a baby about?" Antonio replied. Malevsky then said, "You'll kill me."
Antonio chuckled, "I wanted you dead, I'd have killed you." "Surprised he isn't here." Malevsky replied with a snort.
"Who isn't here?" Antonio replied tired of the riddles. Malevsky chuckled, "Someone who makes God and the Devil scared of him."
Antonio snarled as he walked over and dragged Malevsky by the head, he then kicked him in the stomach before tossing him to the ground. He then said, "Surprised you've not learned. Capelli's make the devil scared."
"Not like this. This guy, he mentally tortures people, he makes terrorists frightened of him, he makes criminals frightened of him, when I tell you and Jameson what I've done, you'll just kill me." Malevsky replied coughing. Antonio then rolled his eyes before he said, "Can I just shoot him and be done with it?"
"Not yet." Joe I replied.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Joe I looked around all of the disgraced NYPD members, his own blood boiled at the sight of them, he then said, "Before I take your shields, we all have questions for you to ask. You fail to answer them, and one of you dies."
Giuseppe steps forward as he asks the first question, "Which one of you killed my Dad, Officer Angelo Capelli Jr?"
One of the elder members Jameson had his gun to had then said, "I killed him, I ratted his location to an ex-con who Angelo put away. I was jealous of that prick. I wanted him to pay."
Giuseppe shared a look with John who nodded. John grabbed the elder cop and threw a right hook towards the man breaking three of his teeth, before beating the man in, he shouted, "This is for our Dad, this is for our Mother!" Giuseppe picked up a screwdriver from his belt as he said, "Hold him!"
John and Jameson took hold of the man as Giuseppe stabbed the man with the screwdriver in the shoulder before he said, "This is for our father. Our mother. Die lonely, you son of a bitch!" Giuseppe took the screwdriver out as he punched the man in the face.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Joe I and Joe II shared a nod with Jameson who walked forward, he then said, "Which one of you ratted out Detective Jameson Bacciarelli in July 2009, first person who speaks lives another day."
None of the cops says a word, all sharing a look. They heard Alberto Bacciarelli's dying words. Words that rang clear in their minds.
"Whatever happens next, heed this, if you run, my son will hunt you down. Mercy will be the last thing on his mind." Alberto Bacciarelli had said.
Jameson heard no words said, he then nodded as he walked to the bar, he fired on the bar as bottles fell from their shelves onto the ground. He reloaded the magazine pulling the charging handle back as he asked, "I'll ask again. Who murdered my father?"
The dirty cops all shared a look round the table, Malevsky snorted as he said, "Just so you know. It not like he wasn't warned."
Jameson turned his attention to Malevsky who walked from the table and said, "Just like John over here. Again, and again. You Capelli's or Bacciarelli's don't take a hint, do you?"
Antonio snarled, "Not from the likes of you, we don't."
Jameson then said, "You murdered him?" "I ratted him out, let the mob kill him. For what it's worth. It was business. Same as Cole's brother. I murdered that asshole with my gun and raped his sister before murdering her." Malevsky replied.
Cole growled as he held his gun on Malevsky before saying, "I oughta put a bullet in your head, right now."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jameson held his hand up to silence Cole as he said, "Hold your mud, Sergeant!" he pointed the finger at Malevsky before saying, "Did you rat Joe Capelli out to the AQ, answer me?"
"Yes, yes I did. I even ratted out Junior over there." Malevsky indicated to Antonio. Antonio growled like a wolf, he walked over pointing his gun at Malevsky's head as he said, "Now I remember you. You were there when I was tortured. You ratted out our Marine brothers to the enemy. You ratted out the very country you swore to protect. I oughta kill you right now!"
"Then shoot me, what are you waitin' for?" Malevsky asked. Antonio pulled the hammer back as he focused on his own heartbeat.
Antonio then leant in and whispered in Malevsky's ear, "Where's Latif?"
"He's in New York, where I don't know. He moves around a lot. If I tell you, he'll kill me." Malevsky whispered.
"When you see him next. Tell him, there are some things far more frightening than death." Antonio replied with a whisper.
Antonio walked back to where the PC was as he said, "Death might be what you wish for. But you deserve death a different way."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jameson then asked, "Where's Michel Malevsky?"
"I don't know where Mike is. If I knew, I wouldn't tell you." Malevsky growled out.
Jameson nodded, "So be it." Jameson turned around to walk, but he held up his rifle and fired several shots hitting Malevsky's leg as he fell to the ground bleeding.
He turned to walk out as he said, "Call an ambulance."
Joe I then said, "Detective Beckett, take their shields."
"Yes sir." Kate Beckett replied.
All the plain clothed civilians walked out of the building leaving the NYPD members of the force.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
As everyone walked out, Bobby Thompson walked up and said, "Commissioner, we found a man, he's been beaten badly, tortured as well too."
"Who is it?" Giuseppe asked.
Thomas then said, "It's Michel Malevsky."
Jameson walked outside as he saw Michel on the ground, his hands tied behind his back, his legs were bounded too. His face had multiple scars. The shirt he was wearing was bloodied, cuts were around his chest.
Joe saw the scene as he let out a low whistle, before saying, "Someone went to town on you."
"It was punishment, punishment for my sins. He tortured me for information on how to lift the Bacciarelli eviction notice." Michel shakily replied.
Jameson lifted Michel's chin with his M16A4 Barrel as he said, "How do I lift it?" "You can't, I bought a lot of people on the council to put it into effect. I still wanted to prove you Bacciarelli's are dirty bastards." Michel laughed.
"It's a shame, I can't torture you. But I can kill you." Jameson threatens as he gets out his Ka-Bar fighting knife. He then places it against Michel's cheek as he dragged it down, the blood drew as Michel then said, "Please don't kill me."
"Be thankful, where's Eddie Chapin?" Jameson asked in a polite tone.
Michel shakily says, "Brighton Beach, he's took 12 million in pure heroin to the Russians hoping to increase his cut."
Jameson puts the knife away as he hears a phone ring, Jameson then says, "You will meet an end so cruel, the devil will weep, let that cut be a reminder when we meet again."
Jameson looks inside the pocket of Michel Malevsky and sees a piece of paper stained in blood. He unfolds it as it reads.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Corruption is the enemy; this sick bastard deserves nothing but death. They all deserve a painful death. The Russians will get what's comin' to 'em. – Your Friendly Samaritan."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jameson puts the note in his pocket as he says, "Somehow the Russians are involved."
Joe I then walked over after getting off the phone, "We gotta get to Brighton Beach, there's been a massacre."
Everyone's eyes widen in shock as they head off for the cars.

15 Minutes Earlier
Little Odessa, Brighton Beach
Brooklyn, New York
1710 Hours
The unknown dark-haired soldier drives towards Little Odessa in his pickup truck. it was a black Chevrolet Silverado 2012.
He was wearing a dark shirt, with a black tactical vest, the US Flag on the front of it, the wore dark cargo trousers and a pair of dark boots. The soldier gets out of the truck, he picks up the M4A1, it is equipped with a Hybrid scope, AN/PEQ-15 laser designator and a foregrip.
The soldier fastens his helmet pushes down a pair of NVGs, he then hops the fence, he then leaps for the other side of the footbridge, the soldier hops the railing as he brings his rifle up, the muscles flex in his arms as he nears the power generator.
He pulls his NVGs down and cuts the power. He hears talking inside, it's Russian, the soldier pulls out a silenced Glock 19 as the footsteps draw closer. The soldier kills the mobster approaching as he lays the body down without it making a noise.
He brings his M4 up as he makes his way inside, he throws 2 flashbangs before taking cover. The flashbangs go off as he appears from cover, he kills the Russian mobsters before they even got a shot off.
He grabs the dirty cop known as Eddie Chapin as he says, "You don't know me, but I know you. You're done as a cop. You'll die in prison. You're goin' to confess for attempting to kill Alison DiLaurentis in 2010. If you don't, I'll kill you."
"Who are you?" Chapin asks. The soldier growls out, "I'm the one that everyone fears." The soldier slips a bit of paper into Chapin's pocket. He then ties up the man and improvises a gag for Chapin.
The soldier hears the sirens as he smirks, "Right on time." He takes out two smoke grenades and tosses them out to provide a cover for him, just as the smoke builds, he makes a move for it and jumps over the railing. He runs across the beach as he takes cover for a minute beside a drain opener.
He climbs up and heads for the truck, he hops into the back seat as he watches cars go by. He then slips the helmet off, hiding the weapons. He then pretends to fall asleep.

Present Time
Little Odessa, Brighton Beach
Brooklyn, New York
1725 Hours
The entirety of the team that took down Jack Malevsky and his corrupt group of cops arrive at Little Odessa.
Jameson looked around as he saw sirens everywhere. He then sees smoke on the pier as he says, "The restaurant on fire?"
"No, I don't think it is." Antonio replied. Joe II then said, "The smoke would be in our lungs if we felt the flames."
Jameson walks over to Joe I as he says, "Call was for gunfire heard here. Whoever did this wanted to be heard." "Exactly, why'd you think I called you here?" Joe I asked.
Jameson smirked as he walked over with the group, only he was let in with the PC, Chief of Department and Detectives including the Chief of Special Ops.
The officer right next to the door noticed the commissioner as he said, "Commissioner."
"Detectives inside?" Joe II asked.
"Detective Esposito and Ryan are inside." The officer replied.
The 5 men walked in as Esposito then said, "Sir, small Russian Otriad, doesn't look like a gun was fired."
"Armed brigade, any survivors?"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ryan nodded, "Eddie Chapin, bound at the ankles and arms. Gag in his mouth. He was the 2nd guy that wasn't at the Williamsburg bar."
Chapin's muffled voice was annoying Donarelli as he said, "Get the gag off him." Ryan nodded and took the gag off as Chapin then said, "I confess to being dirty, I confess to the attempted murder of Alison DiLaurentis in 2010. Just throw me in jail."
Tommaso then smirked, "You'll get what's comin' to ya. First, tell us what happened?"
"I was cutting a deal with the Russians, suddenly the light goes out. One guy goes to check it out. He doesn't come back, suddenly flashbangs go off; the Russians are all dead."
"How many men?" Jameson asked. Chapin shook his head, "I only saw one man, only sounded like one man taking out these guys."
Esposito then said, "One man did all this?" "This guy, he's not human, he showed no mercy. He didn't say who he was, but he said he only said 'I'm the one everyone fears.' There's a note in my pocket." Chapin replied.
Esposito pulls out a note and reads it.
"The rats in this city turn up wherever they are. Fidelis Ad Mortem – Your Friendly Samaritan."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Jameson reads the note as he sees the difference between the 2 notes and says, "Same handwriting. Whoever this is, he's very well trained, he's prepared. Military obviously."
"Special Forces. SEALs, Force Recon… Delta or even 75th Rangers." Esposito replied. Jameson nods, "Obviously got a lot of experience."
The 5 men walk back to the barrier where the rest of the team was waiting, Jameson filled them in on the situation.
To say the least, everyone was surprised, everyone all had the same question on their minds, "Is this brother a friendly or an enemy?"

80 Wakefield Drive, Annadale
Staten Island, New York
1753 Hours
Antonio drove Jameson and Giuseppe to his house in Staten Island, there the girls were waiting as Spencer said, "You're back, you're all okay!"
"Just some bumps here and there." Giuseppe replied. Aria hugged Giuseppe as he swung the brunette around.
Jameson then said, "We'll have to find somewhere to stay for the night." "Stay with me for the night. I got more than enough room for you guys. Me and the boys will sleep downstairs."
"Thank you, whoever you are?" Aria replied.
Jameson smirked, "Where are your manners, my friend?" "Sorry Miss, forgive me, Antonio Capelli. United States Marine Corps." Antonio introduced himself professionally.
"Aria Montgomery." Aria replied shaking Antonio's hand.
Hanna smiled, "Hanna Marin." "Antonio." Antonio introduced himself.
Jameson holds onto Spencer's hand as they watch the others walk into the building. Spencer asks, "What's wrong?"
"There's an eviction notice on the house. Malevsky slapped it on there. He's bribed a bunch of people on the council. My sisters and I will lose our home." Jameson confesses.
Spencer then asks, "Isn't there a loop hole?" "None that I could find. I can't call in favours, it's not me." Jameson replied.
"Sometimes, you might have to do what is right in order to save the people you care about." Spencer says. Jameson rests his forehead onto Spencer's as he says, "I hate that this happened."
"You're not the only one." Lena says from the front porch. Lena then says, "Do you wanna get out of the cold?"
"That'd be a splendid idea." Jameson replied.
