Chapter 1
Mission accomplished
Welcome to Los Angeles,the home and playground for gang members. Other than the fights,rich assholes and blood it's a beautiful place. Chloe was just at a restaurant take an order. "Make sure you put seven sauces in the order!"Chloe yelled at one of the chefs. She looked at her watch and saw it was 7:42. She sighed. Man I'm surprised this stupid restaurant isn't shut down. Two minutes after,the head chef came back with two plastic bags. "Your order miss."he said with a heavy Russian accent. She took the bags and gave him the money then left the restaurant.
The sky was pitch black and the streets were,more or less,empty making it the perfect time for gang members to play and,potentially,make the streets dangerous...not that Chloe was afraid. Walking the streets at this time felt like home to her. She turned into a wide,long,dark alley and continued walking until she saw a red light flashing just above a big silver door. She knocked on the door. "Open up!"she yelled. The small slot moved to the side and two hazel colored eyes appeared. "Who is it?"The voice,which unmistakably belong to Chloe's girlfriend Rachel,asked. "Rachel you know who it is."Chloe replied exasperated. "Please state your name and-" "Rachel bring Chloe in so we can damn well eat!"a male voice yelled angrily. Rachel laughed and opened the door for Chloe.
Rachel was slightly shorter than Chloe,pale,had long blond hair and hazel eyes. She was a friendly,caring and outgoing person,pretty much the total opposite of Chloe. She walked over to Rachel and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek then walk into the building. It was bigger than most buildings where gangs live in. The floor was a bit dusty,not that anyone really cared. There was a gold chandelier hanging on the high ceiling giving lots of light on the three small tables underneath it. At the sides there were two cases of stairs leading up to a platform with a "throne" on it. Four people were already seated when Chloe put the bags on the table.
"At long last."a teenaged boy said reaching for the food. He was average height,pale,had short brown hair and brown eyes. He was a kind person,aside from his really bad jokes,somewhat sensitive and overall not a bad person. A girl turned and smacked his hand away. "Not yet Warren,"the girl named Max scolded. "We have to wait for the boss." She was slightly shorter than Chloe,pale,had brown hair a bit below the ears and blue eyes. She was a lot like Warren in personality. Kind,funny,bad jokes and sensitive. She was also reasonable,very mature and smart. Chloe used to have always teased Max about her and Warren being a couple because they were so similar. "We don't know when he's coming."Warren grumbled rubbing his hand. "Would it kill you to have a bit of patience Warren? I swear,food will be the death of you."another girl named Kate,Max's girlfriend,sighed.
She was the same height as Max,pale,had dirty blond hair that was tied in the bun and hazel eyes. Kate was the shy,kind "I don't like too much attention"girl which Chloe couldn't stand when they first met. "Could you all please stop fighting already!"another girl named Victoria snapped. Chloe rolled her eyes at her. She was the same height as Rachel,making her slightly shorter than Chloe,pale,had short blond hair just above her ears and green eyes. Arrogant,rude and out right brat were the only words Chloe could describe her in since Victoria was basically that one girl in the group that you couldn't stand though she had to because Victoria was the second-in-command. Over the last two years however Victoria was much more bearable to be around. "Yes mother."Max replied and Victoria glared at her.
The thud of a heavy door echoed through the building.
Everyone looked up and saw their boss,Nathan,with his hands behind his back. It was hard to think of Nathan as the boss solely because he wasn't much older than any of them. He was taller than Max but still shorter than Chloe,pale,had short light brown hair above his ears and blue eyes. He was a rich,powerful and aggressive man. He was,however,kind with his members and was the only one who could afford to get them their weapons and gear. They all went down on one knee and bowed their heads. He looked at all of them then smiled. "Why aren't you all eating?"he asked then laughed. Everyone smiled and went to the table. "Hands off my fish burger!"Warren warned. "Trust me Warren no one would eat that."Kate said with a disgusted look. Max laughed. They all took their seats and chowed down.
During the meal Nathan's phone rang. He got up from the table and moved somewhere out of earshot. "What do you think he's talking about?"Kate asked them. "Probably his dad calling him again."Victoria replied annoyed. Just then Nathan come back. "Just got a call. Some rival gang members are on the prowl in our territory. I want you all to take them out."Nathan ordered. Chloe and Warren groaned. "Seriously?! We just ate!"Warren grumbled. "For once I agree with Warren."Chloe said. "Listen,unless you all want to lose most of our territory to some gang members you better get moving,"Nathan said. "And if you all do well i'll give you each a pay." That changed Chloe's mind quickly. "Alright guys,let's get moving."she said. Rachel and Max laughed while Warren rolled his eyes.
They got up from the table and walked to a closet that contained their weapons. Chloe entered the code and it opened. Guns to knives to bats and even swords were assorted in the closet. Chloe took two pistols and put them in her weapon belt. Rachel took a knife and revolver,Victoria took a machine gun,Max took a sword and pistol,Kate took a shotgun and Warren took an assault rifle. "You all ready?"Nathan asked. They nodded. "Good. Remember,leave no one alive and be careful."he said sternly with a pointed look at Chloe and Rachel. "I'll send Victoria the coordinates."he said. They nodded and ran out the door. Victoria pulled out her her phone and looked at it. "Ok,I got the coordinates. Follow me." She ran through the alley and took a left,everyone following. They past by one of Nathan's spy friends bases. Finally,they made it to their destination. It was the restaurant that Chole had just came from. "Ten bucks that one of the chefs is a rival gang member."Rachel said. "Twenty it's the head chef."Warren said. "Fourty that all the chefs are in the same gang."Chloe said. "Betting high are we now?"Max said. "Why not? I'm feeling lucky."Chloe replied. "That would be the first."Rachel joked. "Do we have a deal then?" Chloe asked. "Deal."Warren and Rachel said. They shook hands to confirm the deal.
"Alright guys,get into your positions."Victoria ordered. Kate grabbed onto the gutter on a building near the the restaurant,climbed it then grabbed the edge and swung on the building. She trotted to the other edge of the building then aimed her shotgun. Warren moved to the side of the building hiding in the shadows and and aimed his assault rifle. Max climbed on the restaurant then leaned over the edge and aimed the pistol. Rachel moved to a window then opened it a little and aimed the revolver. "Alright Chloe let's go in."Victoria said holding her machine gun. In cases like these,Chloe,Victoria and rarely Rachel were the ones who confronted the gang members head on. If things got ugly and the gang members tried to escape the others would ambush them. Chloe took one of her pistols and they walked inside. It was silent and deserted but Chloe knew better than to believe that. He walked slowly and carefully examining the place thoroughly.
A snap of fingers made Chloe turn around and point the pistol at Victoria. Victoria at the right corner of the restaurant. She hears something Chole thought. She nodded and silently walked over to the place. It had old pans,broken plastic bags and other useless stuff. A perfect place for someone to hide though. She was about to move the pans out the way when she caught the glint of a moving object. She barely had time to move out the way before a dagger shot right past her face. Three gang members shot from the spot and ran to the door. Two of them made it out the door before Victoria did a roundhouse kick and knocked the third guy away from the door. He staggered to the side then turned to face them. Now they could see him more clearly. He was part of the BlackHell gang,the one and only rival of their gang. She could tell because he was dress in all black,their signature clothing. He unsheathed two long knives and charged at Victoria. Chloe heard gunshots outside. Great job guys she praised them silently.
She moved to the side and pummeled the butt of the assault rifle to his back. He nearly fell to the ground but regained his balanced at the last second and threw on of the knives at Victoria. It caught her in the shoulder and she grunted in pain,falling to her knees. He was about to throw the other knife when Chloe kicked it out his hand then punched him in the face. He fell right on his back. Chloe put her foot on the man's chest before he could get up. "Stay down."Chloe ordered. He growled but,wisely,obeyed. Victoria grabbed him by the collar of shirt and dragged him outside while Chloe walked behind her pointing her pistol at the man's head. The other two were wounded so they couldn't get far before they died of blood loss. Rachel and Max were pointing their guns at them,for precautions. "Why are you three on our territory?"Victoria asked. None of them spoke. Victoria looked at Rachel and nodded. She aimed her gun at one of the guy's leg and shot. The man screamed in pain. Victoria went down on one knee and looked the guy in the eye. "Now,i'm going to ask you again: Why are you three on our territory?" "Don't you say anything!"one of the men growled. "Shut it."Warren hissed and slapped him.
The man immediately answered her question. "Our boss wanted to expand our territory so we were suppose to scout the area then report back for us to then steal it." Victoria looked at them thoughtfully. At last,she turned to Chloe. "Kill them."she ordered flatly. Chloe looked at the three men and smiled menacingly. "No...please don't."the man whimpered. "Be lucky I'm making this quick."Chloe said before she pulled the trigger. The man's head went back and blood poured from from the bullet hole. The other men started to spitting curses at her but she paid them no mind as she put a bullet in their heads. Once they were dead Chloe backed away.
"Warren. Take this three and bring them to BlackHell's territory. Let this be a reminder that the TimeWarrior gang won't back down so easily. Max,Rachel go with him for backup and take this."She handed Max the machine gun. They nodded and walked off. Victoria turned to them. "You two help me raid this restaurant."she ordered with a smile. Chloe laughed and Kate cheered. Chloe wouldn't trade her life as a gang member for anything in the world.
