Flashback
Early 2008
In the south of Algonquin on the northern edges of the Westminster district laid one of Liberty City's well-known nightclubs, owned by the famous Gay Tony. Hercules was the name of the city's most popular club where gay people came over to the dancefloor daily.
Pulling up into the back alley leading to the side exit of Hercules, Naruto parked the Schafter next to the door, emerged from the driver's seat, and opened the rear driver's side door before talking into his radio
"Hey Troy, I'm at the back and ready to receive the VIPs. What's their status?"
"They're heading to the rear door as we speak, they'll see you soon."
"Copy that," Naruto responded by getting back into the driver's seat, intending to keep the engine up and running in case of any unforeseen circumstances he might need to deal with.
*CLICK!*
The sound of the club's backdoor opening was enough for Naruto to turn his eyes to the rear mirror as he watched his passengers coming in - and they were lookers.
The first girl to enter had dyed purple hair that was tied into a chignon and was wearing a dark bell hat, golden heart earrings, a top opened long sleeve blouse with red suspenders that clung onto a black miniskirt, and a pair of sunglasses covering her eyes as she was a bit tipsy. The champagne bottle she held didn't help her case either.
Laughing while entering the car, she laid her head on the headrest and made room for her other friend who was equally stunning.
Entering next with her gold-colored high heels was an orange-haired beauty of a girl who wore golden earrings, a gold bangle with a Rose Gold ladies' watch alongside a white minidress with a black bow on the midriff and the strings holding it up crossing at the collarbone gap.
"Botoru o yamete moraemasen ka, mada hoteru ni modotte imasen." (Could you please stop the bottle? We haven't returned to the hotel yet.)
"Whatever, Nami, I'm just having a good time." The purple-haired woman named Carina smiled back with brightened cheeks. Turning to their chauffeur and exclaiming, "Driver, to the Majestic, please!"
"On it."
The Schafter drove out of the alleyway and it began to drive upwards to the expensive Majestic Hotel that was located just off the south of Middle Park and in the northern parts of Star Junction, which meant these two were no ordinary VIPs college students.
While driving, Naruto had already figured out that the two women were Japanese by the fact they could speak it and they weren't from LC either. Possibly some girls on a trip. He kept his focus on the road.
"Nē, Nami, watashitachi no untenshu o mita koto ga arimasu ka? Kare wa kawaisōdesu."
(Hey Nami, have you seen our chauffeur? He looks cute.)
The purple-dyed girl talked openly in Japanese to her friend with a sly smirk. "Chotto fuzakete mo ī kamo? Kare ga nani o teniireta ka wakarimasu ka?" (Maybe we can fool around a bit? See what he's got?)
Hearing them talk about him made the blond suppress the smile on his face, unable to contain the thought of talking back but he wanted to see where this conversation was going.
The orange-haired girl named Nami replied in their native tongue. "Hoka ni mo shinpai suru koto ga arimasu. Au koto ni natte iru dīrā no koto nado, oboete imasu ka? Sore ni, kono hito wa amari motteinai yōnimieru."
(We have other things to worry about, like that dealer we're supposed to meet, remember? Besides, this guy looks like he doesn't have much.)
"Shinpaishinaidekudasai, koreha baggu ni haitte imasu. Sore ni, kare ga mitame ga yoi koto mo hitei dekimasen." (Don't worry, we've got this in the bag. Besides, you cannot deny he looks good.)
The orange-haired girl gave a brief look and turned right back to her friend.
"Wakarimashita, kare ga sutekidearu koto wa mitomemasu. Sore wa hitei shimasen."
(Alright, I admit he looks nice. That I won't deny.)
"Thank you for the compliments."
The two girls in the backseats found themselves to be surprised by that response, with the purple-haired Carina even nearly choking on the champagne.
"Y-You understood us?"
"Of course I did." Naruto smiled while shifting gears as he drove, "It's been a while since I spoke my native tongue, but I still remember it after moving here."
"Native tongue? You are Japanese?"
"Dattebayo, born and raised in Osaka. Name's Uzumaki Naruto." The blond grinned at them through the rear mirror, "May I know the names of the two fine ladies?"
"Oh? Interested in us, are you?" The purple-haired woman couldn't help but laugh for a bit. "Shishishi, well alright, my name is Carina and my friend here is Nami."
"Pleasure meeting the both of you,"
"You are from Osaka, right?" Nami asked him, "Shouldn't you have a Kansai accent?"
"Oh, that. Of course, I had it but I lost it when I began working overseas," Naruto explained, remembering being asked the same question by other Japanese passengers while he'd been working for Roman's cabs now and then, "My sister also lost it when she began going to college in Tokyo."
"Overseas?" Carina asked, her curiosity spiked with a grin, "Don't tell me you came to Liberty City to work here as a nightclub driver, didn't you?"
"Well, it wasn't planned if I am being honest." Naruto carefully put it like that, "It's a long story but I just recently came to the US, like a few months ago."
"Spill it," Nami asked, closing her legs as she was now more curious. "We got a long way before we get to the Majestic Hotel."
"You sure?"
Carina raised her bottle. "Yeah, shoot!"
Within the next half hour, Naruto drove through the excruciating pain that was LC's traffic jams and stops. He told his story to them on how he went from getting an assault charge in his hometown to becoming a part-time cab driver for some Serb man and then, becoming one of Gay Tony's drivers.
It was then that they arrived at the expensive Majestic Hotel in Star Junction.
"We're here," Naruto said, turning around to the passengers, "Just on time. You ladies alright?"
There, he saw their reactions which was something he should've expected by now. They had stunned and horrified expressions but also that of sadness. Carina was not drinking any more or the mischievous smile she'd entered the car with had dropped.
"H-How…awful…" Carina said, taken back by what she heard. "You must've seen some horrible stuff in that part of the world."
"Well, I have not told you everything. No need to ruin your night," Naruto said as he kept on topic. "I wish you ladies a good evening-"
"Are you done for tonight?"
The person who asked that question was Nami who for the most part, was silent for the entirety of the ride and now, she was asking something. "If you are, you can just leave the car here and the valet will park it for you."
The bold move of an invitation into a room with two girls from a mainly gay club got even Naruto to think for a moment because normally a guy would be lucky to be invited by two good-looking girls of his age.
"Are you sure about it? Or is it the alcohol speaking?" Naruto asked to be sure, "I don't want to make you guys uncomfortable."
Nami grew a genuine smile. While she hadn't planned this, she did not think of passing down a situation like this either. She turned to her friend Carina who grew her mischievous grin back, with both having made their final decision.
"No worry, we are okay with it."
"Far from it - I kinda am excited."
End Flashback
"Hmmph!"
*CLANK!*
A pair of dumbbells hit the ground with some weights on it that had just been used by the very same blond who had been exercising. He walked towards a towel that lay next to his water bottle.
He was dressed in a tracksuit with the zipper pulled up to cover his bandaged shoulder. It was one of his favorite colors: orange and black with his pants being just black and his jacket being both colors, he also wore sporting shoes with red-colored lines and a headband that fit him.
Where was he now? In the gym, the one he just purchased a subscription from his friend who owned this place and other franchises that were spread up across the city, Body Beyond.
Admitting to his first presumptions, the gym was pretty good with all the equipment that someone needed to work with from beginners to weekend visitors to routine trainers. There was a wide array of exercise equipment available across the large facility for all body parts with several rooms for up to a hundred people to come in and train. Near the entrance, there was a bar for drinks, refreshments, towels, and even schedules.
And by the looks of it, it was a success with now around a few dozen people doing their exercises, all of them training hard-
"Ah!"
Turning to the nearby seat was Fu, who was wearing a green-mint-colored sports bra and off-white yoga pants with sporting shoes. She had a barbell across her shoulders as she went through a set of squats.
Having pushed herself to her limit, the mixed Brazilian girl was covered in sweat, revealing a well-built physique underneath her clothing, curves that nearly burst through her yoga pants with every rep, and well-developed leg muscles.
As Fu continued to do more squats, Naruto found himself staring at her ass, her well, curvy, nice-looking-
"RUTO!"
Naruto nearly shrieked when he felt an arm slap him on the back. The culprit was a bald young man in a blue jumpsuit with more energy surrounding him than any other person in the room. It was Roman's best friend-
"Brucie Kibbutz," Naruto greeted him.
"My man, welcome to Body Beyond! It's so nice to see you finally working out in my gym!" Brucie spoke with such enthusiasm. "Not even a few weeks in and I already have people coming in the gym daily, baby! Models, bodybuilders, strippers, winners!"
"If you say so, Brucie. If you say so." Naruto smiled while holding his shoulder, "Just watch out for the arm, alright? It got dislocated after an idiot last night drove into me."
*CLANK!*
At the sound of the barbell being put back in its place, both men turned to see Fu using her towel to clean herself up before she began to stretch her legs.
"Say, this is the girl you came in with?" Brucie whispered to him, cracking a smile. "Damn bro, you got yourself a hot chick."
"Huh?" Fu heard something and turned around. "Oh, Naruto."
"Fu, so you just know I-"
Fu walked up to him and kissed him, making Brucie excited for Naruto.
"My man! You hit the jackpot!" The bald man exclaimed, noticing the time on his watch. "Shit, I got to go - but don't let me interrupt your training, brother. Treat that girl right! I'll stay in touch!"
Brucie left just as he came: full of energy but so little time as he left the two exercising foreigners on their little scene.
Fu gave Naruto a funny look. "You know that guy?"
"Friend of mine, he's crazy but good," Naruto told her. "You're done for now? Let's go for a drink."
"Sure!"
Algonquin
Underneath the North Holland bridge that connected Liberty City to the state of Alderney, just on the eastern edges of the island was the clubhouse of the Angels of Death.
Just right across that building was a member of the Lost parked. Obito was that member.
For the Japanese outlaw biker, it had been nothing but bloodshed that he had been experiencing for the past week. Just these past days, the Angels had attacked several hotspots where the members of the Lost's McAlderney chapter were based, with Billy and Johnny having intervened by killing several dozens of them in the process, turning South Alderney into a war zone.
That was all at the same time when Obito was in Broker where he'd spotted someone fleeing the scene where Jason Michaels and a few members of the Liberty City chapter had been murdered. It meant that while on one front, the Lost had taken a victory lap, they had lost an enforcer and several brothers on another.
As he waited for the others to arrive, the Nomad member stared at the entrance of the rival club that he had no problem disposing of, having killed numerous Deadbeats over the years, something else still bothered him- the timing of it, as it hadn't been a full day since Jason was killed, much less had his wake prepared. He got a text on his phone.
*Mandatory: Run, AOD clubhouse - delete the message.*
*VROOM!*
The sound of multiple engines roaring was all that it took for Obito to turn to his right. Multiple bikes were coming in fast, looking like it was a race and Johnny Klebitz was the one leading and winning.
"Brother, good to see you're here." Johnny drove his bike up to Obito's side. "Been waiting here long?"
Obito shook his head, "I've only been here for a few minutes." He turned his gaze to the front entrance of the club. "If you want to ask, nobody came out - bastards don't even know what's coming."
"Deadbeats are called Deadbeats for a reason," Johnny responded while he got off his Hexer, stretching for a bit. "We've been hammering them since Billy's party."
"Yeah, I heard what happened down in Alderney."
"And there's Jason's death, shits fucked up," Johnny said as the brothers assembled near Terry's gun van to pick up their weapons for the upcoming attack, "You sure you saw only one man leaving that park? Like you told me over the phone?"
"Yes, I did, in a tracksuit nonetheless." Obit replied to the Vice President's question with what he remembered as he also got off his bike, "Whoever this guy is, Jason must've pissed him off since he took out all those men."
"We'll discuss that later, brothers, once Jason's wake is happening," Billy said while walking over to them with Brian behind him, the President was holding onto something, "I've got a toy for you."
"Yeah whatever, Bill. Whaddya need?"
Bill however gave him a look. "What is this?"
"What?"
"What the fuck is wrong with you, both of you?" Bill asked them and proceeded to point at the clubhouse entrance. "These Deadbeats are the ones who killed Jason in Broker?"
"I thought it was a Pole or a Serb or something?" Johnny asked and even pointed at Obito, "Our brother here even saw the guy, Bill."
"Oh he did, but we got some very bad information, brother, these are the guys," Bill argued with the two of them. "They killed that kid and look at you, you're acting like you don't give a shit. You sick or something, man?"
"Those Deadbeats killed Jason?"
"Yes, they did. Now take one of these grenades and put it through their window." Billy told him while pointing out to the second-floor window just above their main entrance, then shoving the grenade launcher into Johnny's arms.
"The Almighty forgives, Johnny. The Lost don't." Billy made that statement clear before he turned to Obito, "Good Boy, with me."
With preparations still not done, the brothers were surrounding the gun van of Terry, with kinds of weaponry being on open display in the back of it. Nines, semi-autos, Uzis, Macs, AKs, long shotguns, sawed-off, Molotov cocktails, and even some body armor, enough to prepare for such an occasion like this.
"Pick what you want, Good Boy." Billy said grabbing for a sawed-off shotgun for himself with the shells loaded, "The moment John Boy fires that grenade, a whole lot of angry Deadbeats will come out."
"I got what I want."
*KA-CHINK!*
Grabbing out of the back of the trunk, Obito just took one of the AKs with an extended magazine that he began to check for himself.
"Billy, I know what I saw - that was no Deadbeat who killed Jason."
"You saw wrong my Brother. Sure it was some Eurotrash piece of shit that killed Jason, and we'll take care of that shithead later, but we've found out he was a hitman hired by the fucking deadbeats, all because they're shitting themselves at the idea that we are going to honor some fucked up peace treaty bullshit I had never even agreed to, when they fucking jump us at the fucking clubhouse, insult you simply because you're a fucking Jap, and try to fucking kill is for standing up for ourselves!" At this point, Billy was growling his words out in anger. "Now are you going to join us in getting payback, or are you a chicken shit deadbeat?"
"You know Jason was a kiddy fiddler, right?" Obito asked Billy levelly.
"I knew the fucker liked them young, but jailbait and kids?! What's your proof?" Billy asked incredulously
"The shitton of underaged girls he'd taken photos of and left all over his place. Now why should we retaliate for a piece of shit like him?!" Obito demanded.
"Simple. If we knew about his little proclivities, we would have thrown him out. We're rebellious shitheads, but there's even a line we don't cross. Besides, it's the principle of the matter, they took out Jason, our Brother who may or may not be posthumously expelled, but he was targeted because he was a full patched member of the motherfucking Lost. If it wasn't him, it would have been me, or BJ, or the Fitz, or Johnny the Heeb, or even our own fucking Good Boy. Now are you going to help us, or are you going to keep bitching?"
Gripping the handle of his rifle, Obito just then nodded, enough for Billy to pat him on the shoulder while he walked past him.
"Keep that anger boiling for the deadbeats, brother - we'll discuss this later."
If looks could kill, Billy was lucky to not have seen the glare that was visible on his face, but it was clear at this point he was at a breaking point.
"You okay, Obito?"
Phasing back into reality, the person who asked was inside the gun van, having just witnessed the whole argument in front of the two bikers without notice, Temari stood there a bit stunned.
"I'm alright." Obito told her and even advised, "Close the doors, it is going to be hectic."
Taking upon that advice Temari began closing the backdoors to lock them, with Obito turning around to the other brothers, walking up to Jim who was carrying a Uzi machinegun pistol, who wasted no time to then ask.
"Is what you said true? About Jason?"
"Wake these Deadbeats up with a bang, brother!"
*FWOOP!*
The sound of the grenade launcher being fired, the explosive ordinance was a first hit as it got through the open window.
*BOOM!*
The second-floor window erupted into flames, resulting in the Angels of Death clubhouse now being on fire, and its occupants by now doubt to be alerted. Movement was seen coming from the back entrance where men with guns were seen coming out and walking down the stairs.
"Get into cover," Obito said as he did so himself behind some roadblock pillars, "Johnny, fire one more into the parking lot."
"You hear the brother, John Boy." Billy said getting into cover himself, "Shoot!"
Johnny did so and loaded another grenade into the launcher before he aimed it at the deadbeat bikes, with the projectile landing right next to the black AOD van's gas tank, just when a couple of Angels arrived at the parking lot.
"Losers-"
*BOOM!*
The grenade exploded with the van torn up by the explosion, the three angels who were close by weren't so lucky as they got hit in the blast and were either killed right away or flown into the wall behind them, with the bikes themselves having not been spared neither as they were blown to pieces.
"It's a fucking trap!"
"Open fire!" Billy shouted as every Lost member present started firing their guns at the surprised Angels who were caught in the trap and were trying to get to cover, with them being heavily outgunned by the attackers. Already several deadbeat bodies fell victim to the rain of bullets unleashed by the Lost.
Billy managed to hit one deadbeat who tried to hide behind some barrels, killing him instantly with his sawed-off shotgun, shooting his face off from a good distance.
"Hey asshole, you'd be a lot less ugly with a bullet hole in your face!"
Tires shrieking over the road, out of nowhere another AOD van pulled up into the parking lot with other Angel bikers escorting it.
"Looks like we ran into an AOD convention. What fun." Billy comments, "Good Boy, light them up!"
Obito aimed his sights at the new reinforcements and wasted no time firing his semiautomatic rifle, hitting the driver of the van multiple times in the face before he hit the shotgun passenger who tried to get out but got hit in the stomach multiple times.
"Leave some for us, brother!" Terry complained as he, Clay, and Jim were shooting at the deadbeats trying to escape from the back of the van, with some getting mowed down by gunfire.
Johnny wasn't done as he fired his grenade launcher one more time at the van, with the projectile bouncing off from the van and hitting a retreating deadbeat right in the back, causing the biker to drop down to the ground in pain as two of his brothers tried to drag him into cover-
*BOOM!*
The explosion caught the three deadbeats, killing all three of them with one of them even having his arm torn off.
"They are here for the brown, brothers. Do not let those Losers get in!"
The few remaining deadbeats outside the clubhouse were covered behind some pallets of boxes, that were quickly shot up to pieces by the amount of concentrated fire the Lost were discharging, quickly dropping them one by one.
Obito didn't wait any longer and jumped over the roadblock cover and kept firing his rifle at the enemy, until-
"More Deadbeats!"
Two more bikes with Angels came up, just as when Obito stood in the middle of the road.
"Good Boy!"
Obito turned around quickly and rapidly fired at the incoming bikers, quickly killing the two drivers in a swift moment, forcing the two bikes to crash right in front of him, with the two passengers crashing into the ground in front of him. Not waiting any further, Obito quickly finished the two passengers off with multiple shots into their backs and heads. Killing them in cold blood.
With no more live deadbeats in the parking lot or even outside the clubhouse standing, Billy took it to the next step to finish the job inside the AOD Alqonguin Chapter clubhouse.
"Nice job, Good Boy, nice finishing touch." Billy said approaching the clubhouse main entrance with his sawed-off shotgun walking over a dead biker, "Into the clubhouse, soldiers."
"Brian, Obito, with Billy and I." Johnny said joining him at the front, pulling out a pistol, "The rest of you stay outside, expect any more Deadbeats to come."
The other brothers did so and began setting up a perimeter for now, with the only non-combatant witness having watched all of this unfolding was Temari herself, who had watched all of this happen from the passenger's seat of Terry's van.
Reaching for a small pistol she had hidden in her boot, the sand-blonde-haired girl went over to the driver's seat and started the engine.
"Heavy…."
AOD clubhouse
Once inside, the loud sound of hardcore rock was the first thing Obito was hearing, with the others following him inside. Billy was the second to enter and wasted no time giving orders.
"We need to clear this whole clubhouse, go!"
Obito slowly approached the open door that led to the bar, hearing the loud music still being played, he could also hear glass falling and footsteps.
"I hear movement."
"Must be the ones who are wasted," Billy said turning to the back, "Johnny, help Good Boy."
"On it!" Johnny shouted over the loud music as he quickly went over to the other side of the door, with a shotgun blast nearly hitting him.
"Shit!"
Obito took no second chances and quickly took a glance before he entered the room, spotting one Angel, drunk off the booze, spotting the Lost member with the rifle.
"FUCK!"
Not hesitating Obito fired into the deadbeat's gut, neutralizing him for now before he then ducked for cover with bullets nearly hitting him, one even grazing over his hair and bottles bursting around him. With two rival bikers shooting at him from behind the bar.
"Die Loser!"
"Fucking Die!" Johnny busted into the bar and fired his sawed-off shotgun at the bar, hitting one angel, killing him while wounding the other with only two shots, with the drinks bursting open and the different types of alcohol mixing on the ground behind the tab.
Some moaning was heard from the wounded deadbeat, causing Obito to walk over the bar end finding the Angel trying to crawl away with blood coming from his head and back.
"Shit…"
Obito emptied the AK into the man's back, with a burst at such close range that could tear the man's body up to pieces, ending it when the mag was out of rounds, causing Obito to grab for another.
"That's the spirit, no survivors!" Billy entered with Brian, pointing his gun at the back entrance, "I see you-"
*BANG!*
Another Angel dropped dead to the ground with the full loud of a shotgun hitting his just, Billy walked over the enemy's body without a second thought, with the others joining him.
"Take point."
Obito went up ahead and was met with the burning body of a deadbeat that was from the second floor, having been the unfortunate victim of Johnny's entrance surprise to them, with nothing left of that guy but burned skin.
"Damn that smell."
"Don't complain, Jonathan, this is payback for Jason." Billy told him before pointing downstairs, "Let us clear the gym downstairs."
Brian suggested. "I can-"
"No, Good Boy, Johnny, honors are yours," Billy interjected with a laugh. "You two are on a streak, no need to break it."
Both did not complain but Obito finally put a new magazine, a regular one as he went down first and spotted an angel with a pistol hiding behind a wall, calling out the others.
"They're downstairs-" The angel got half his face blown off by Johnny's shotgun blast, entering the downstairs gym first, he saw two more survivors.
*Click!*
"Shit!" Johnny looked at his shotgun, "I'm out!"
"Get him-"
Obito fired his rifle at the remaining two deadbeats who tried to shoot Johnny, dropping them quickly with them dying before they even hit the floor, both hit twice in the chest and head.
"We're in the clear."
Once the shooting ended, Billy began putting his gun away while he walked over the bodies of the fallen deadbeats, with gunfire fresh in the air, it was a victory for the Lost as they had just cleared out the AOD Clubhouse as retaliation for one of their own.
Yet it didn't seem to be enough for Billy who spotted something that made him smile, two large duffel bags on a table at the end of the gym.
"Hahahahaha," Billy laughed while he inspected the content what was inside those bags. "Oh, the Deadbeats have got themselves one shit-load of heroin."
Obito reacted to that with a glance before he turned back to the staircase, aiming his rifle in case more deadbeats would come.
"Pack it up, Johnny."
"Wait, I don't understand," Johnny spoke, not doing so as it was instead Brian who went over to grab the drugs, with Johnny asking his president. "I thought this was payback for Jason, man, what the fuck is this?"
Billy just shrugged like it was no problem, "Two million in arm candy's is as good a payback as I can think of - come on, brother."
Hearing that rough number got the black-haired Japanese man to pay attention, something didn't add up.
How did he know the value of the stash already?
"Jesus, hold your fucking horses, man," Johnny said, disagreeing with this. "Now we're going to steal their smack? Slow down."
"Slow down? hold up, wait, ohhhhh." Billy mimicked his words while Brian picked up the duffel bags full of heroin, laughing while looking at Johnny with little care for that caution. With Brian laughing along like always.
"Jesus, physics lesson, fuckball." Billy asked Johnny, "Do you know how motorcycles work? Do you, Johnny?"
"You about to get schooled."
"Centrifugal inertia." Billy went on to ignore Brian's ass-kissing, "Meaning the quicker your wheels go, the more stable you are. The faster we go, the harder we hit it, the more us brothers pull together. That's why we do what we do, that's how we do what we do. Why, how - they're the same fucking thing!"
Brian tried to add in. "We go faster, longer an' harder and that's how we stay together."
"Brian." Billy turned briefly to him, "Shut up."
Obito just shook his head while keeping watch on the staircase, seeing that Johnny was not convinced.
"What the fuck are you talking about? You gotta stop reading them shitty internet sites, man, and start thinking about what you're doing to us." Johnny tried to reason with Billy with one simple fact, "We lift this shit right now and every Deadbeat on the east coast is gonna come after our chapter."
"Well, that's something your leader will have to worry about. Not you, soldier!" Billy replied back, not listening to it, and continued to order his lapdog. "Brian, grab the shit."
Brian grabbed the heroin and began making his way out with Billy following up behind, once walking past Obito, the Japanese brother could only shake his head and finally spoke.
"This is bad…"
"Fucking right it is, fuck!" Johnny said walking over to Obito, clearly frustrated, he then calmed down, "We'll figure out later what to do. Let us get the fuck out of here."
"Agreed," Obito said as he began walking up the stairs, "I'll be going my own way."
"Keep in contact, brother. Me and Jim will need your help with something else later."
Both the VP and the Nomad left the gym and soon left as the last the AOD Clubhouse, with all the brothers already leaving. This was far from the end of this war.
Meanwhile
Niko was not having a good time on the highway towards Bohan - far from it.
Now doing a job for Mr. Faustin, Niko was driving a truck with a load that was supposed to be delivered to a garage that wasn't paying any more protection money to the angry Russian mobster, thinking it was just another errand, but instead, he was transporting something.
That something was a loaded mixture of ammonium nitrate and nitromethane in canisters. In other words, a bomb that was very sensitive and was being driven very carefully to that garage on the corner of Guantanamo and Windmill in Chase Point.
And that was what Niko now was doing, under pressure, his only outlet was now cursing out his boss.
"My English may be bad - but Faustin's going fucking over the line."
*Tring!*
Just then Niko's cell phone went off and he pulled it out of his pocket, seeing it was his cousin Roman, he answered it.
"Niko, it's Roman. We should go and get drunk together."
"Roman, I'm nervous enough about driving a truck full of explosives around the city for Mikhail Faustin. He's out of control." Niko said over the phone, "Anyway, I'm sorry but if I get drunk with you and then drive this thing I'll definitely blow myself up. Catch you later, cousin."
Ending the call before his cousin could even respond, Niko was lucky he had already gone through the toll booth as he could see the end of the bridge, wishing this thing to be over soon, and of course, hoping this bomb would only have enough to destroy the garage.
*HONK!*
And then a small black cab, an Esperanto of all, with a familiar-looking driver who skimmed his ride against the truck, the driver yelling-
"Dog lover!"
The cab drove off, leaving Niko to recognize the car.
"Mohammed, you stupid-"
*Beep-Beep-Beep-*
"Shit!"
Meanwhile
Chase Point
On the patio of a local café sat Naruto and Fu, with a cup of refreshment drinks on their tables, and next to their chairs laid their sporting bags with their sporting clothes in them. Having showered there at Brucie's gym they were now in their normal clothing with the pair socializing about some things about their lives.
"Hahaha, no way! You did it with the two of them?!"
Some of the other customers on the patio gave glances to the pair, causing Fu to close her hands over her mouth, such a statement that only meant one thing.
"Oh! Sorry." Fu apologized with a nervous laugh, "I didn't mean to."
Naruto just gave her a genuine smile in return, "It's okay, nothing to apologize for." He rubbed the back of his head, shy about the admission, "I do have to say, I am kind of surprised you have a reaction like that."
"Oh, why's that? I figured you and those two girls had done it," Fu replied to him with a shrug, "I mean, two girls inviting you into their hotel room after midnight kinda gives it away."
"Yeah, if you put it like that, sure," Naruto said taking a sip from his drink.
Fu then asked, "What happened to them anyway? Those girls I mean, you still talk to them?"
Naruto finished his drink before he cracked a smile and began pulling out his wallet, confusing his date, thinking he was going to pull out money to pay for the drinks, but instead pulled out a small piece of folded paper. A newspaper article that he began to unfold and read a headline that got Fu to be surprised at what she read.
Majestic Hotel Escort has gone bad! - Diamonds worth over 5 million dollars stolen by two women!
"No way!" Fu was shocked at what she was reading, "They were never caught?"
"No, apparently they used fake IDs and weren't caught on security cameras." Naruto said, reminding himself of the details, "Those girls must've scooped the place earlier because the cops gave up after a month or so because of lack of evidence."
"So from whom did they rob?"
"From what I know, some Israeli diamond dealer who happened to visit from Europe." Naruto recounted the details again, "Those diamonds he had were from the Diamond Quarter in Antwerp, but the guy holding them wasn't that kosher."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"I mean he was a young guy who decided to go online and purchase a double escort that happened to be those two ladies - ending up with himself tied up, with him having his dick inside of a sex doll and robbed."
Fu couldn't help but keep her laughter down, "What happened then?"
"They disappeared off the grid, the LCPD could do in a situation like this - harass the local Asian communities in Alqonguin, especially Chinatown, but no traces." Naruto summarized with an ending note, "But I doubt this will be the last time I'll be seeing those girls again."
If the two had paid any attention, they would've noticed a large truck coming out of the corner and driving the opposite way where they were, going directly to the garage.
"You know, this got me curious." The green mint-haired girl asked with a blush, "I saw you looking at me during the session at the gym…"
Naruto nearly choked on his water, seeing he got caught.
"Oh crap, I'm so-"
"Please don't…I…kinda liked it."
It was then that Fu looked at him directly in his eyes, she began to curl her hair with her free hand, clearly nervous, before she asked something that was on her mind.
"Would you be interested in some hot coffee?"
*BOOM!*
Before they knew it, a large explosion rocked Chase Point, causing everything to shake as even cars stopped in the middle of the road and people ducked for cover. Car alarms went off as people ran for cover or panic.
Fu had found herself shoved into the ground, with something heavy over her, the young woman could not move and tried to do so-
"Stay down, I got you covered."
Opening her orange eyes, Fu saw it was Naruto who was covering her body with his own, with the windows having shattered into shards of glass and chunks of debris having flown around, he had taken most of the falling objects on him.
"N-Naruto?"
"I'm alright, ugh…" Naruto grunted with something stuck in his shoulder, he saw it was a piece of glass that had managed to get in, "Are you okay?"
Fu nodded but found herself suddenly in such proximity to Naruto's body, with her hands happening to touch Naruto's well-toned chest with warmth.
"I….I…"
"Let's go."
…
Sirens were loud and clear with the first responders coming down to Chase Point, to the burning ground zero that was the Used Auto Parts, the garage that now was gone with nothing left but fire as it consumed the remaining structures that weren't obliterated by the explosion.
The cause of the explosion was running through a couple of back alleys, making sure to at least run a couple of blocks to make a good distance away from the area he just blew up.
Stopping there in a corner, he watched how LCFD firetrucks and police cars drove past, not spotting him as he watched them go towards the site, meaning he was in the clear, for now. Pulling out his cell phone, he began to dial in the number of Faustin, telling him this job was done.
And once Faustin answered the call, he did not hold back his words.
"I've blown the place up, but don't pull that shit on me again. Maybe I don't want to drive around while sitting on an atom bomb."
"I thought you were the ice-cold killer? I thought nothing scares you, man. Pussy. Hasn't anyone got any balls? You and Dimitri, you'd be nothing with me... nothing. This is how you treat me…you and that boy Naruto better watch out…"
Ending the call, Niko put the phone away and began making his way through Bohan, trying to get as far away from the mess Faustin had gotten him into, a mess he didn't want to be involved anymore further. He was done doing work for the Russians.
Then he felt his pants vibrate, a ping nonetheless, the Serb man saw it was a text message:
'We need to talk, me, you, and Uzumaki. I'll be on the Firefly Island Boardwalk. Your friend, Dimitri.
Later that night
Bohan
After another day of Bohan insanity, more police choppers were patrolling the skies with searchlights, and numerous police cars had blocked off the area around Chase Point.
Allowing for a couple of police detectives and Deputy Commissioner Francis McReary himself to come down and see what the damage was, and what he saw was horrendous.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" The Irish high-ranked cop began, angered at the sight of the destroyed garage as he ranted, "In less than a month I have several high-profile murders, a Russian mob boss's son assassinated, and now a car bomb - A FUCKING CAR BOMB in the middle of Bohan!"
"Technically sir, it was a truck bomb-"
"I don't care what you call it - I cannot have terrorists start bombing my city, Jesus Christ." Francis cursed at this, "You managed to find any traces?"
"Bomb carried ammonium nitrate and nitromethane, fertilizers, sir. But I do not believe this was motivated by terrorism."
The detectives and McReary saw that it was Yugito Nii who was the one who gave the details of this case first, having bypassed the yellow tape, she walked over to the Deputy, ignoring the glares of some of the other cops.
"Not a case of terrorism, Detective Nii?" McReary asked, listening to her, "Do tell what it is then."
"Russian Organized Crime, sir. It fits with the target." Yugito said handing over the notes she made and evidence, "This Used Auto Parts garage was a front owned by Kenny Petrovic, and my informants told me this was most likely an escalation between Petrovic and Faustin."
"Russians throwing bombs at each other now?"
"And it is getting out of hand, even for the Russians, sir." Yugito continued, "Word on the street is that Faustin's getting isolated, that someone is trying to dethrone him from his position anytime soon."
A firetruck drove past the cops as now the fires had been put down, with just the cleaning-up crews with the supervision of the arson unit, looking for more clues with the deputy commissioner watching.
"Luckily enough no deaths were reported." McReary said with a sigh of relief, "None of the garage workers were inside nor were any civilians nearby when the explosion happened"
"Yeah, lucky indeed."
Liz' Appartement
*CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!*
"Ahh yes!~"
That was the sound of somebody being lucky, on the couch, lights dimmed, clothes scattered around the floor with luck on their side that the apartment was just for the two of them tonight. Fu was lying on her back, fully naked at the mercy of Naruto who was making love to her in the most unorthodox way possible.
Both having just survived an experience like a car bombing had sent these two lovers to engage in life-affirming sex for nearly a few hours now, with Naruto plowing the bronzed, good-looking woman who had her legs crossed around his hips while he was fucking her missionary style.
Fu moaned, at the mercy of Naruto while enjoying the whole act, her hands were planted against his back, with him pounding himself inside of her, the sound of clapping asscheeks was loud enough to arouse them even more, especially the blond young man.
"H-How are y-you this good-FUCK!" Fu gasped in pleasure as she squirmed underneath him in pleasure, "You have the energy of a bull! Uhhh~"
Fu couldn't react when she suddenly felt herself getting pulled upward, face to face with Naruto who then planted his lips on hers earning another moan from her as she moved her hands to hold the back of his head.
Passionate as the moment was, the act had been in the back of their minds for some time now ever since they got to know each other better, and with what happened today, that sexual tension exploded and now they're busy acting on it.
Both mouths explored one another with their tongues battling it out for dominance, saliva mixing and leaving a lingering trail once both mouths departed from each other, with a satisfied moan.
Fu blushed when she said, "Allow me."
Naruto gave a nod, as Fu got off his cock and kneeled from the couch onto the floor, grabbing Naruto's hips as she began taking him into her mouth, much to his delight.
"Oh Fu…" Naruto moaned as he looked down, seeing her head bobbing up and down his manhood, she was going in hard and good on his manhood, with the sound of gagging and choking, as she did something he didn't expect her to be talented in, reminding him of a certain head that gave that same pleasurable act ages ago.
Flashback
Majestic Hotel
"Ahhhh, fuck."
Naruto groaned, his head turning down to see a head bobbing up and down with the exotic sounds of gagging and slurping accompanying.
That head belonged to the orange-haired Nami who was giving him a sloppy, but exciting, blowjob with her hands on his thighs. She was devouring his manhood, filling her whole mouth.
She then looked up, still with his member in her mouth, Nami, who felt a little drunk and had nothing to do with the alcohol she had earlier, gave a wink to the blond as she continued to give him head.
"Hey, give me some loving too."
Naruto's head was turned around and pushed into a pair of naked breasts, belonging to the other woman named Carina, burying his head into her embrace, the purple-haired girl chuckled in delight while she wore only the black miniskirt with a champagne bottle in her hand.
"Here, have some."
Carina poured some champagne over her breasts, even over Naruto's head as she could feel his tongue licking her skin and even nipping at her nipples, much to her amusement.
"Ahhh~ easy tiger, we're not even starting yet." Carina smiled at the blond man who wasn't holding back, before turning to her friend. "Nami, we got a jackpot of a different kind."
"Hmmm~" Nami responded with a moan, her hair in a mess, but she was still enjoying every second of it, before removing her mouth from the shaft, covered in saliva and with a satisfied grin.
"Why'd you stop?" Naruto asks enjoying Nami's mouth.
"I was always taught never to talk with my mouth full." She replies diving her head down back onto Naruto's shaft.
Carina, still getting her breasts sucked, decided to help her friend by lightly rubbing Nami's head while she sucked on Naruto's length, stroking her long tangerine-colored hair properly so it wouldn't get in her way.
Nami seemed to like having her hair stroked due to the fact she started humming with Naruto's cock in her mouth, pleasuring him more due to the vibrations
"Oh, I got an idea…"
…
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Now lying on her back, Nami was fully exposed with her breasts going up and down as she felt her pussy getting pounded in and out by Naruto, who was bucking his hips and manhood into the formidable woman. Carina lay next to Nami teasing her by pinching her nipples while also playing with her clit.
*"I'm going-I'm going to-Hmpph!"
Nami's words were silenced by Naruto kissing her right on the lips, as she came with her pussy squirting large amounts of liquid out of her, spraying the bedsheets, Naruto's lower torso, and even covering Carina's hand.
"Oh! That's a big one!" Carina said lustfully, she was now eager to go at another round with the man ravishing her friend.
With a moan, the two mouths parted, Nami's mouth lingering with a half-asleep smile, she was exhausted, but not finished.
"Just…one…more…time…"
…
"AH YES!"
Carina shouted in pure excitement now she was the one getting fucked, with her being rutted from behind by Naruto while underneath her laid Nami, seen sucking on her friend's teats while covered in sweat and groping her.
Carina's long hair was a mess as she rocked forward and backward at a fast pace. She managed to regain her handle on the bed before placing her hand on her ass, steadying herself as she got pounded into her friend. She suddenly had a small orgasm causing her to lose strength in her right arm.
"I-I can't feel my legs!"
Carina collapsed on top of Nami who grabbed Carina's head and placed it between her breasts as the purple-haired girl orgasmed causing her body to stiffen, and cunt to tighten.
Naruto feeling tightness notices he's closer to his impending orgasm and starts to thrust at a faster pace until he can't hold it in anymore.
"I'm cumming!"
"Me too!"
Thrusting as deep as he possibly could he came inside Carina for several seconds before pulling out and inserting into Nami filling up her insides.
"HA!~"
Flashback ends
Now both were fucking each other again, and they were close, with Naruto's pelvis going against Fu's backside, they were close to reaching the very end-
"AH!"
Both climaxed, Naruto and Fu arrived at the same time, their fluids mixed with the two of them collapsing on the couch. Gasping for air, they both had reached their ultimate limit.
Laying her head on his sweat-covered chest, Fu spared no words and smiled.
"That was amazing…"
"Yeah, you were…."
Naruto's hand twirled around Fu's short hair, messy and covered in sweat itself, she didn't mind at all as she snuggled her full curvy body against his, with her leg touching his leg…his third one to say the least.
"I didn't use a condom-"
"I took pills from Liz, no worry, besides, I needed this," Fu said, reminding herself, whispering to him, "Put the blanket over us."
"My pleasure," Naruto smiled and complied as he pulled the big blanket over them, big enough to cover both bodies as they went on to snuggle and sleep, both way too tired to shower or even go to a bed.
They just hoped Liz was going to be the first one to go through that door.
