"Hey, Dad." Jade said answering the phone while driving. "I found the location of Iosef." He said on the phone. "Great, what is it?" She asked excitingly, turning into the next street. "The Red Circle club. Meet me back at the Continental. We're going there tonight." John said as Jade hears keys in the background. "Yeah, no problem." She said as they both hung up and Jade slowing down and parking the car in front of the Continental.
Entering the Continental, she tossed the keys to the bellhop and greeted Charon with a nod as she entered the elevator, ascending up.

Unlocking the door, she saw John grabbing clothes and weapons out of his bag as she greeted him with a nod. Laying her keys on the counter, she headed to one of her duffle bags and chose out a couple of different outfits. She also picked up her bulletproof vest, her guns and ammunition then headed to the bathroom.
Dressing into a black skinny jumpsuit, with the shoulders cut off. Added with a black satin tie on her neck, her black leather watch, silver daisy bracelet and her ankle heeled boots. Lastly, she did her makeup and hair attached her weapons and ammunition refills onto her belt. Grabbing her black blazer she walked out of the bathroom to the main door, giving herself the last overlook. She readjusted her tie and saw John's reflection behind her doing the same. Jade chuckled slightly as she turned around. Looking right at her dad, she smiled. "I'm looking at a mirror." Jade said jokingly. "I thought I was too. Ready?" He said poking her tie. Her red lips stretched from ear to ear and she poked a small dent into John's tie; something he noticed Helen had always done. "Yeah." Her voice relaxed but excited. They both turned to exit, John, collecting the car keys and locking the door behind them as they headed towards the elevator.

Pulling up a few blocks away from the Red Circle, John switched off the engine and both father and daughter simultaneously started to check their weapons and essentials. Jade suddenly stopped as she noticed the gesture they were both doing. She really is her dad down to the core, silently thinking to herself while following him out of the car and towards the Red Circle club.
After confronting Francis, the two was able to sneak into the club unnoticed by the private guards. They quickly made it to the bathhouse locker rooms below the club. Three men entered the change rooms and the pair had sneaked inside as they both noticed one of Iosef's friends made his way to the sink; filling it to the brim. John and Jade had to hide behind some lockers; John giving Jade a signal as he grabbed the first man from behind, covered his mouth and stabbed a knife in the back of his skull. Dropping him ever so slightly. He returned to another side of the locker, hiding from the other man in a robe. Jade saw John give a nod and she smirked; following his previous actions. Taking the man from behind, covering his mouth, muffling his screams and quickly taking a knife to the back of the neck. She let go and let the body slide down the locker behind her. Blood painting the white locker red under the blue fluorescent lights. The body came into Iosef's friend line of vision through the mirror. Panicked, he looked back to see John's fist meet his face. "Where's Iosef?" He asked him.
Blood dripping down the boy's face and hands supporting him on the sink counter. Jade quickly joined her father and held guard with her gun in hand. "Fuck you motherfucker." He was able to mutter and John swiftly kicked his exposed leg; the loud crack and his screams filled the area and John grabbing a towel from the counter, turning him backwards and choking him with it. "Where's Iosef?" Asking again, pressing his luck towards him. The boy was struggling and squirming through his tight grip. Gurgling his own blood and fighting for air. A wave of silence passed through and an impatient Jade took out a knife from her blazer and bringing it close to his eye. The blade only inches to his pupil. "Where is he?" Her tone low and dangerous. His eyes and expression widening in fear and his face turning pale. "Bathhouse. Downstairs." He said in desperate need for air.
John let go of the towel and slammed his head onto the sink counter. Cracks and yelps only being heard by the two. "You stole my car." Slamming onto the counter again. Blood staining the white marble. "You killed our dog." Muttering in Russian. Taking his head into the sink water this time; drowning him. Jade could hear his last muttered words through the water as John gave one last tug and a crack. Followed by a thud as his dead body slid onto the floor. Jade picked up his cellphone from the wet floor and handed it over her father. Taking it and placing it into his pocket. He followed her to the entry of the change room and through the small resting areas of the bathhouse and pools.
The pair taking short glances and studying the room. Observing how many guards are in the room and the placement of Iosef. Jade quietly unsheathed her blade and hid behind a large brick wall; watching the guard walk back and forth his post inside one of the blue illuminated posts. She waited for John's signal before going in as he followed shortly after beside her.
The red and blue lights glowing in different directions across the room. He only gave a small nod as she quickly opened the door and had attacked the first man inside. Covering his mouth and sticking the blade through the back of his head and throwing his lifeless body against the glass. Blood splattered everywhere as she threw it aside. Jade then spotted her dad appeared behind her doing the same thing with the other guard.
Clearing the area, she followed John quietly out of the post and both hid behind the brick wall. The voice of a guard and footsteps quickly heading towards their direction. The mellow music made it quite a challenge to listen for guards, as it was reaching the entire underground bathhouse very loudly. John had punched the guard who made its way around the corner, covered his mouth and took the blade to his chest then the head. Leaning the body on the wall and slowly falling it down without a complete sound. Jade made her way around the towel racks and behind some columns as she spied across the room for Iosef. John stalked near the towels keeping an eye on the same target. Jade was about to shoot, then was caught off guard by John getting tackled by a guard and destroying the towel rack. Falling into the red circle light and their presence revealed. She quickly moved from her post to help but was suddenly stopped by guards and bullets flying around. People screaming in terror as the bullets fired out and Jade taking cover back against the column.
John quickly subdued the man and shot a few guards shooting towards his direction. Pointing the gun towards Iosef across the room and his frightened expression at the sight of John. Shooting down at the man he took down he walked towards Iosef who panicked and pushed through the water out of the pool. A large man had made his way in front of Wick, stopping him in his tracks and letting Iosef get away.
Jade shot from both directions to the guards as they went down with chests exploding with blood. She made her way in front close to Iosef, and ready to shoot him but only for another guard knock the gun out of her hand and pinning her to the wall. Struggling she took her knife from her blazer and stabbed the guard's arm. She fell from his grasp as he loosed his grip on her neck and she used his arm the use his own weight and flip him down on the ground. Speedily grabbing her knife from his arm and taking it into his chest.
Taking out his gun, John shot through the glass. His bullet barely missing as Iosef ran swiftly behind the cracked glass up against the stairs. Jade made haste towards the stairs after Iosef and immediately shot three guards heading towards her. John following quickly as more guards populated the bathhouse and shooting towards the two.
Reaching the upper level, Iosef stumbles and ran, pushing away mindless dancers and yelling at guards behind him. Jade bolted after him, shooting down some guards and running past others; to focused on getting Iosef. John followed behind, shooting and fighting off the other guards as they drop dead to the ground; followed by blood and screams filling the dance floor. People started pushing away and heading towards the door just as bullets could be heard being fired. He rapidly followed his daughter out the door, shooting his way out.
Jade ran through screaming crowds as she tried shooting Iosef. He kept running through crowds of people, Jade was worried she would shoot someone innocent. She hissed in frustration as she pointed her gun across the room to shoot, but another guard threw her gun in the air and kicked her right in the gut. She fell back on the floor in surprise as John quickly made haste and shot the man who took her down. Quickly helping his daughter up she grabbed another gun from her belt, losing track of her previous gun; grabbing another, and shooting the guards coming from the entrance door behind her father. Turning around and one of the guards lunged towards her; only for John to shoot him and grabbing another that followed after. Jade shot three more guards headed towards them as John kicked down another guard whilst holding down another. The pair ran toward the other room, hastily following behind Iosef; pushing away from the innocent club-goers. Getting up from shooting the guard below his, a large guard shot bullets towards John; shooting his chest only to target his bulletproof vest underneath. He fell down in shock shortly but bolted back up to take cover, refilling his magazine into his gun.
Jade did the same as she kneeled down under a table and reloaded quickly. A guard ran into her field of vision and shot his leg from the table. Rapidly getting out of the small spot she shot the man in the head before he can shoot back. A blade swiftly had run across her line of sight and she dodged it by leaning back and slamming into a wall. The blade had cut her cheek and drew blood. Suddenly the guard took her neck and slammed her onto the ground. Grabbing his wrist, she flung to the ground and a wave of pain flew through her body as the head and back hit the ground first. She grunted in pain but quickly twisted out of his grasp. She rolled over the man and stood up, but the man rapidly kicked her down and crash into the bar tables. Her head flew back from the sudden pain as she shortly recovered. Gaining back her sight and focus. Shoving the bar stool against the man he grunted in pain; she took this chance and grabbed a broken piece of glass and shove into his neck. His body falling down dead.
Jade panted heavily as the loud music and purple and red disco lights populate the room. She ran back to John, only to see a man carry him and throw him down the floor below. He crashed down in pain and she quickly retailed by kicking him straight in his face. He flew back from the unexpected hit as Jade kicked him again and slammed him against the glass barrier blocking the floor below. Surrounding him, they both grabbed each other by the neck; Jade trying to force his head down, and he suddenly took his leg and kicked it towards her stomach. Using his foot and grabbing her arms, he lifted her off of him and threw her over the barrier like John. She screamed as she hit the ground; groaning in pain and turning to see her father grab a gun from his belt from behind and shooting the guard as he looked over the barrier and ran off just as he shot the glass.
He got up rapidly, helping Jade as well and they both ran out the exits. John quickly limping but Jade sprinting. She saw Iosef close the car door behind him as it drove off into the street and took the chance and bolt after it, shooting the car simultaneously. Bullets fly towards the car as she shatters the car window from behind. A bullet from the car flies back to Jade so quickly.
She fell down on the road, as the bullet fortunately barely hit her, but grazed her shoulder quite a bit. John bolted towards her as he answered the phone from his jacket. "Victor's dead." He panted between breaths. "Everything has a price." Was the last thing he said before discarding the phone on the floor. He kneeled down to help her up. "Are you okay?" He asked concerningly. His fatherly voice getting into his tone and actions. "I'm okay. It's just a graze..." Jade was able to mutter as blood drew out of her shoulder. Both quickly headed to the car and drove to the Continental.
