Huey had just trotted down the stairs with a towel around his neck when he noticed Riley looking through Grandad's old album collection.
"Old man had some weird taste in music,"
Before Huey could comment the door flew open and in ran a very frantic, rather beaten little girl. She had tears streaming down her chubby face and panic in her voice when she grabbed hold of Huey for dear life, panting loudly.
"Hurry! Hurry!"
"Lillian, what's wrong?" Huey asked, knealing down and notcing the scuffs and scratches on her face, "What happened?"
"HESHOTMOMMY!HESHOTMOMMY!!HETRIEDTOKILLME!!" She was hysterical. Huey cocked his eyebrow.
"What?"
"Someone shot Jazmine!?" Riley exclaimed, being fluent in hysterical and hissy fits, "Who!?"
"IDUNNO! HE-HETRIEDTOKILLME!"
"Lillian!" Huey snapped, "Where is your mother now!?"
oOOOoOOOoOOOOo
While Huey and Riley go find out wtf happened… LETS HAVE A FLASH BACK!!
oOOOoOOOoOOOOo
Lillian stood there before her lifeless mother, tears streaming from her big brown eyes. It wasn't until that she noticed the attacker move closer that she reacted. Her tiny hand balled into a fist and she flipped up, nailing him in the jaw with a jumping kick. The man stumbled back, baffled by her attack.
"Don't touch her!" Lillian shouted, anger seething.
"Worry about yourself, girl,"
Biting her teeth, Lillian jumped back, avoiding his grab. She flipped forward again, only this time she was caught by her ankle by his massive hand and tossed down hard. Her face collided with the rough carpet. She recovered quickly and wiped her lip before jumping back.
Remembering Riley's gift, she removed a shuriken from her pocket and threw it expertly at the man who was given a hairline scar on his cheek.
"Little bitch," He snapped. Dodging another face kick by punching her in the face when she got close enough. Little Lillian went flying again, only to land square on her back, her little body bouncing on impact and skidding to a halt further down the room.
Her body ached and she couldn't jump anymore. She knew her tiny punches couldn't do anything to this guy… she needed help. If she didn't leave soon, her mother would surely die… and she, herself would be killed as well. Biting back a curse word she was always punished for saying, she made climbed her way atop of her mother's dresser and hopped out the door. That man couldn't fit his whole body through it but he nearly dragged her back in through her ankle.
Thinking quickly, Lillian pulled out another shuriken and slammed it hard into his hand, the dagger side going deep into his flesh. He yelped and she ran as fast as her tiny legs could carry her.
oOOOoOOOoOOOOo
"OOoOwwWWwWwWwwWW!! That hurts!"
"You have to clean this, stupid," David barked at his friend, taking her arm and trying to finish cleaning the cuts and scuffs with antibiotic.
"You're burning my arm off!!" She wailed.
"You're such a baby,"
"Am not!"
"Are so!"
"AM NOT!"
"ARE SO!"
The two evenly matched warriors of annoyance glared intently at the other. Caesar left with Huey and Riley to go help Jazmine. Lillian was left alone with David and Cindy but… it was more like being left alone with David because Cindy was too busy watching BET or something else so irrelevant.
She was sitting there in some bed-time shorts and long tank top. They were in the center of David's bedroom. Bandaid wrappers, bandages peroxide and antibiotic ointment surrounded them. Poor little Lillian looked like a wounded soldier being drug home from war. She had band aids covering her little body, making her look like a kicked up puppy.
"You think… Uncle Riley, your Daddy and my brother are gonna be okay?"
"How should I know?" She sniffed.
"I'm sorry about your Mom,"
Lillian looked at her best friend and felt her eyes start to water again. It just wasn't fair. She finally had a Daddy but now was she having to trade him for her mother? And now he was going off and he could end up leaving her too. It just… wasn't fair. How messed up WAS this world, anyway?
Who was that guy dressed in black? Why her mother? She was the nicest lady in the whole world. Why would anyone wanna do that?
"I know what it's like… not to have a mommy or daddy…" David told her shakily, "You'll be okay though… I wont let nothin' bad happen to you,"
She burst out into tears, lunging forward and wrapping her arms around David's neck. He gulped and fell back a bit, landing on his palms and not totally sure how to take this new physical contact.
He cautiously let his arms wrap gently around her, figuring he should just let her cry it out.
"You're my very best friend, David," She sobbed, "Don't ever leave me!"
"O…kay,"
OOoOOoooOOooOOOoOOOooOO
Huey felt his darkness eating him up all over again. He knew exactly who this man in black was. He had on his usual pissed off face as he stared at his now opened suitcase. Riley and Caesar were glancing over his shoulder.
"Aye… shouldn't we call the police?"
"This is a secret federal agent assassin here to kill me, Caesar," Huey spoke bitterly, "Good luck explaining that,"
"Why's he wanna kill you?" Riley asked, receiving a mocking glare from his older brother, "Neva mind. Fo'get I asked,"
Caesar went pale at the sight of what was in his suitcase. There were more weapons in that thing than he had ever seen in his entire life. Hand guns by the dozens, a rifle, and several others that were cool and killed stuff that this particular author doesn't know about cos they're really scary and she's too lazy to look up gun names and sound smart.
Huey stuffed himself with his weapons. A few hand guns on his shoulder, one on his ankle, the others in his pockets and chest.
"You guys want some?" Huey asked his companions who almost greedily lunged for a few guns for themselves. Once everyone was feeling pretty…well… safe, they headed across the street which isn't nearly as climactic as a car chase or a speeding scene, but hey, it sure was convenient.
Huey walked inside the house. He would have kicked it down for dramatic affect but didn't want to ruin his lover's house. Plus, he was too pissed to think about dramatic affect.
The three split up, all looking for the intruder. Caesar went upstairs and into Jazmine's bedroom. She was there, laying on her chest but there was no blood. He dashed forward and placed his hand on her neck. She was alive.
'Thank God,'
"Huey! I found Jazmine! She's O-!!"
OooOOOoOooOoo
Huey and Riley heard Caesar getting cut off and both ran up the stairs. Turning into the bedroom, Huey had a hand gun ready and aiming at whatever he may see. He saw both Jazmine and Caesar laying on the floor, his anger flaring and his eyes like crazy. He looked up and saw the culprit standing with a smug look on his stupid face.
"Sup Huey?"
"Cairo,"
"Told you I'd find you," Cairo smirked, "Just never thought it'd be back here in WhiteCrest,"
"As funny as I find you," Huey snapped, taking aim, "I'm gonna have to kill you, you know?"
Riley had just stumbled in. Blinking and then pointing at the assassin's face, "Aw hell nah! YOU'RE the killer!? Why don't you just go back to yo gay ass lover back in Chicago!?"
"Shut up, Riley!" Cairo barked.
"Shit, aint ma fault yous hatin on Huey cos you gay an' he's got a hawt baby's momma,"
"Shut up, Riley!" Huey snapped.
"Aye! I'm on YO side fo once! Don' be hatn!"
"Okay, you two are still annoying as hell," Cairo snapped, aiming his own gun at them, "Huey, I didn't come here to kill your 'baby's momma'. I came here to kill you and your little bitch of a daughter,"
"Lillian," Huey hissed in shock, "Why?"
"She's too much like you. My bosses figure she'd be a threat after your death. She'd be hungry for vengeance and cause quite a stir for our little organization," Cairo explained, "My meeting her today confirmed that theory," he gestured to his scarred face.
"hah! Nigga got beat down by a six year old!"
"So just so you know, you're death won't be a lonely one, Huey Freeman,"
Huey felt his finger start to twitch. If he fired and missed, Cairo and Riley would start firing like crazy and that would put Jazmine and Caesar at risk. He wasn't about to risk it. Instead of shooting Cairo, he lunged forward, slamming a punch into his face.
Cairo stumbled back but hit Huey right back. Huey jumped over his punch, landing on his hand and cutting a backflip, smashing the bastard in the face with his foot. Huey landed on his feet and came right back at him. Cairo reached for his gun and fire, hitting Huey in the elbow. He shouted and fell back, landing on the floor painfully,
"Game over, Freeman," Cairo shouted.
BANG
Cairo's body went limp as he lunged forward, collapsing ontop of Huey, a bullet hole in his chest.
Huey looked up to see Riley standing there with his gun still smoking from the barrel.
"Uppity nigga,"
