Chapter 32
News of the prostitution ring bust at the Black Widow Casino Hotel in Miami, Florida spread like wildfire across the entire country and into the neighboring countries to the north and south.
In Ohmtown, the newsstands were completely sold out of newspapers and where there was a TV, it was on a news channel that featured the top story. People crowded in bars and nightclubs just to watch the news.
"Ohmtown's local rock star, Mok Swagger and his employees took part in the bust. Sources say he was able to obtain photographs of the call girls and a confession from the owner of the Black Widow, Rhonda Legrand," a news woman informed the audience.
"And Judge Ethel Tedrecks had just sentenced Legrand to death early this morning," her partner said.
The people cheered when they heard this, but went quiet when the news featured a recording of Mok and Angel leaving the University of Miami Hospital.
The media personnel asked questions for the two and Mok was the first to speak. "This woman here was sold by someone she knew to the Black Widow and she means a lot to me."
The woman named Angel Lyons came into view and says, "I believe it was fate. We have a lot in common and ever since the rescue, he refused to leave my side. And I love him."
A lot of people were touched by this notion and made some of them cry.
Elsewhere, Omar was trying to get into an unoccupied car. He needed some cash to buy more cocaine and he was losing the buzz.
It had been a few days since he sniffed the last bag of cocaine and he started to hallucinate.
He gave up on trying to open the car door and he could feel the cold steel gun getting heavier by the minute. He laid his back against the wall and then vomited.
Once Omar's stomach was empty of his contents, he dry heaved, but he stopped when he heard someone coming toward him.
"Omar?" Dizzy's voice was heard, but when Omar looked up, he saw a distorted figure and it looked demonic.
"Did you hear the news? Mok discovered a prostitution ring in Miami!" Stretch exclaimed and showed Omar a newspaper.
"Look! Angel was one of the girls recovered from the bust!" Dizzy said to Omar, pointing to a picture on the front page.
Omar, however, thought he was being threatened by demons and he reached into his back pocket.
"What did you do?!" Dizzy exclaimed when he noticed the dizziness and bloodshot eyes.
Dizzy grabbed Omar by the scuff of his shirt and pulled him to his feet.
"You sold Angel! Is that what you did?! Tell me, dammit!" Dizzy yelled at Omar.
In Omar's eyes, the demon was threatening him and then, he pulled the gun out and pulled the trigger.
A loud bang was heard and Dizzy looked down at his chest. Crimson blood blossomed on his shirt and he looks at Omar, who was holding up the gun.
"Why?" Dizzy spoke his last word and he fell to the ground, dead.
"Dizzy!" Stretch cried out and turns around to run, but Omar shot two rounds into Stretch's back. He fell to the ground and died.
A loud ringing noise filled Omar's head and he pressed his hands against his ears. He killed the two demons and he dared himself to look through their pockets.
He found some cash and it was enough to buy a whole month's worth of cocaine. Omar dashed off, leaving the two corpses that were his friends behind.
