Chapter 3

Empty Chamber

Dameon was seated comfortably at a table eating breakfast at a diner in Whetstone. He hated being in the countryside of San Andreas with the empty fields and dingy, smelly towns. Their restaurants were always the best though. 5 tables away from him was his target, Billy Kane. From what he's heard, Billy has stolen some product from his employers and had fled without a trace.

Dameon's assignment was to capture him, find the location of the stolen product, and then dispose of him. Dameon tried to keep a close eye on Billy, but it was so hard with his omelets being so damn good. Billy stood at a payphone nervously looking behind his back every few seconds. So far it had been 20 minutes since he had been on the phone. Obviously he had something important to talk about. Maybe a drug deal.

After a few more minutes of talking and looking around, Billy finally hung up the phone and left out the restaurant. Dameon quickly finished his meal and slowly followed him. By the time, Dameon stepped outside, Billy was already down the road on a yellow dirtbike. Dameon quickly went into his vehicle, a white tweaked up Stallion, and sped down the road.

For several minutes, Dameon drove all throughout the countryside trying to find this man.

"Damn where the hell did he go?"

After driving around for another 10 minutes or so, Dameon spotted the yellow dirtbike in a trailer park sitting in the driveway of a dingy double wide. Dameon parked his car out of sight nearby and walked to the trailer. Stepping in front of the doorway, Dameon noticed that the doorbell was broken, so he knocked on the door. No answer.

After another loud knock or two, the door finally opened and there stood Billy.

"Who...Who are you?" Billy asked nervously

Dameon replied with only two words

"The drugs."

"What? I don't know what you're talking about." Answered Billy

Dameon pulled out his revolver for him to see that he wasn't playing.

"Some drugs from your former boss have been stolen and all fingers point at you. I don't know the whole story and I don't care. Im just doing what im paid to do and that is to find you and recover them. All I need for you to do is tell me where they are." Said Dameon

"Im sorry but I don't know about any..."

Dameon interrupted his sentence by taking the hilt of his revolver and whacking it across Billy's nose. Billy staggered back holding his face in pain. Blood trickled out of his nostrils and ran down his face.

"See what just happened? It didn't even have to escalate to that point. All you had to do was tell me. Im being nice about it, but if I don't get an answer that I don't want to hear, im gonna shoot you in the kneecap. Got it? Asked Dameon

Billy nodded in agreement. Dameon walked in and shut the door behind him.

Billy slowly walked backwards into the kitchen, but Dameon followed with his gun pointed at his head. Dameon heard a chopping sound and when they finally ended up in the kitchen, there was a woman at a nearby counter cutting up raw meat with a rather large knife. She didn't seem startled or surprised of Dameon's entrance whatsoever.

"Now im only going to ask you this one more time and if its not what I want, you'll get what I promised, so you'd better cooperate with me. So where are the drugs?" Asked Dameon

Billy answered " I don't..."

"Strike one." Said Dameon

"Wait I..."

"Strike two. If I get to strike three it will hurt."

"Tammy baby!" Screamed Billy

"Tammy?"

All of the sudden, a knife whizzed past Dameon's face and struck the wall near him. Dameon tried to turn the pistol in the thrower's direction but Billy grabbed for it and knocked loose. Dameon responded by turning and punching Billy square in the face causing him to fall to the floor. Turning his attention back to the thrower, he saw the woman armed with a bigger knife running straight at him.

She came swinging her knife wildly trying to slash at him. Dameon managed to dodge a few, but when he tried to swing a jab at her, she quickly ducked and cut him across the leg. After dodging a couple of more swings from her blade, Dameon grabbed a cutting board and knocked it across her face. She fell back and crashed into a coffee table and stayed there motionless.

"Crazy bitch." Said Dameon

Walking back into the kitchen, Dameon came face to face with Billy and this time, the revolver was in Billy's hand.

"Later asshole." Said Billy with a smirk on his face

Billy pulled the trigger. "Click."

"First chamber's always empty." Said Dameon

Dameon grabbed the gun and punched him 3 more times in the face. He could hear the sound of Billy's nose being broken. After Dameon roughed him up, he took him and tossed him out the kitchen window. Walking out the kitchen, Dameon snatched up a wet towel and patted the cut on his thigh.

"My pants. My fucking suede pants. Crazy whore." Said Dameon angrily as he walked out the front door.

Outside, he found Billy lying on the ground howling in pain from the fall through the glass. Walking over to him, he got him back on his feet and gave him a headbutt. Billy fell right back onto the ground. Dameon turned on his lasersight and aimed at his head.

"Well?" asked Dameon

"Ok ill tell you. I stashed all of it at a storage rental in Los Santos. Binkman's garage number 14. All of it is there. When a drug deal goes into action I have someone act as a courier and deliver the amount that has been confirmed to me. I then sell it to my buyers. That's it I swear." Said Billy

"Thanks. Thats all I wanted to hear." Said Dameon.

Billy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh yeah there was one more thing that I needed to do." Said Dameon

"Wha...what is it?" Asked Billy.

Dameon fired a bullet into Billy's skull.

"That's it." Said Dameon.

Adjusting his tie, Dameon walked away from the trailer and headed back to his car. Then, the front door of the trailer kicked open and out stood Tammy with a Remington shotgun in her hand.

"Goddamn you son of a bitch." She screamed

Before Tammy could shoot a single round, Dameon fired three times into her chest. Tammy fell onto the ground screaming. Walking back to his car Dameon took out his cellphone and dialed a number.

"Mission Accomplished. Have my money transferred into the bank account number that I gave you. Once I find that its there, ill give you the location of where your product is." Said Dameon

Hanging up his phone, Dameon went back into his vehicle and drove off.

Dan walked to his house door and felt under the doormat for his keys. Taking them, he finally opened the door. Being home brought back memories of him and his wife. They both lived a happy life together and she was pregnant with his baby. It was all over and the more he thought about it, the more angry it made him.On the dresser near the door was a videotape and next to it was a letter.

I made a recording to show you what happened on that day. Brace yourself for what you're about to see

- Ray

Taking the videotape, he put it in the VCR and stood in front of the T. V

Breaking News

Good evening this is Lianne Forget with some terrible news. Moments ago a massive shootout occurred in Las Venturas leaving many innocent civilians dead and a lot more wounded. Witnesses say that the shooters were groups of men dressed in black. Police have no leads whatsoever as to who were the assailants or why the shooting had occured.

Police have apprehended a suspect who is believed to be one of the people responsible. A man who is identified as Terrance Weathers was caught armed trying to flee the scene. Authorities have arrested him and he is now going under interrogation. In other news...

Dan stood up and kicked over the television out of anger.

"Those bastards. They killed my wife and unborn child. Those fuckers are gonna pay."

Walking into the bedroom, he grabbed some clean clothes, and got dressed. Then, he reached under his bed and pulled out an old wooden cigar box. Inside was a glock pistol and 1 clip. Taking the gun out, he loaded it and put it into the back of his pants. All of the sudden, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. Dan ran into the bathroom and opened the drug cabinet behind the mirror. Taking a bottle of painkillers, he opened the top and popped a few into his mouth.

Dan was in no condition to do anything and his wounds were still very raw. It didn't matter to him. Revenge was the only thing that kept him going. Everytime he thought about the life he almost could have had, it made him more and more angry. He wouldn't rest until he had the blood of the men who took his life away.

Feeling a little relieved, Dan ran into the closet, and grabbed an empty duffelbag. Before leaving, he went into the kitchen and forcefully pulled back the gas stove causing the gas to release all throughout the house. He then took some aerosol cans from under the kitchen sink and put them all in the kitchen microwave. Then he set the timer, grabbed the car keys to his sentinel, and left out the house.

"Terrance weathers huh? When I find him ill interrogate him myself."

Dan entered into his vehicle and drove off. The first place that Dan was going to head to was the Las Venturas police department. Terrance was put into custody there and that would be the place where he would find all the information that he needed on him. Entering at night would be the best possible solution.

Finally arriving near the precint, he took his car and parked it at nearby parking lot. Then, he crept his way around the back of the building. Quietly breaking one of the back windows, he silently and slowly entered in. After searching around, he finally found himself in the room where they kept the criminal and personal records of people. After several minutes of searching through all the files with W, He finally came across Terrance.

Dan took the file out of the drawer and placed it inside the duffelbag. The next area of the building that he crept to was the armory. Once there the took all the items that would prove useful on his pathway of revenge; Two 9mm pistols, a remington shotgun, a leather shoulder holster, and an M4 assault rifle.

Having all the items necessary, Dan silently exited outside the back of the police building and headed back into his vehicle. Scrolling through the folder that held his personal files, Dan found Terrance's home address which was some apartment complex located in Los Santos.

That would be Dan's next destination.
