Is it really you

"Great, just what I needed right now. Conner do a background check on everybody." "Everybody." "Everybody." "Okay." Once Conner left, I decided to go back to work.

2 HOURS LATER.

It has been two hours since I have been working. I was really about to throw away my paperwork, until I heard a knock on the door. "Come in." "Boss, I think I found our rat, but you won't like who it is." Conner said. "Who is it?" "Rick." "No. Rick is my 2nd in command. He would never hurt me like this." "I thought so too, until I dug a little deeper. Do you remember Martin? " "Yea, he was working with the River gang. He broke into my home and killed over half of my men. When I saw him, I killed him. That was over 8 years ago. What does Rick have to do with him?" "Turns out Martin was Rick's brother." "Where is he?" "In the basement, at the warehouse." "Thanks." I said, getting up.

When I went to the warehouse, I saw that everyone was talking. I wanted to yell at them, but I was saving my energy for Rick.

"Rick. Look I don't want to be here all day, so tell me why you did it." "And why would I tell you?" "Either you tell me, or I'll pay your family a visit." "Leave them out of this." "Then tell me what I need to know."

"It all started eight years ago. When you killed my brother, I was outside in the rain holding my dead brother's body because he was the only family I had left. I made a promise to get revenge. I started working out, training, I even changed my last name, so you wouldn't suspect anything. When you offered a job opportunity, I knew it didn't get any better than this. My plan was to find someone special to you and kill them, but the only person you had was your father. And I wanted to kill him, but you didn't look like you were close. So I waited. I almost gave up, until Bella came. She was so sweet and innocent. I noticed you were finally happy to reconnect with your sister. I noticed you guys got close. I went out one afternoon and bumped into Jacob Hamlin. It turns out I wasn't the only person who wanted revenge on you. Remember when you took everything from Jacob? His home, family, even his son. What you did to Jacob wasn't even fair. I mean, who kills someone's son? " "His son stole from me, betrayed me, and killed my ten-year-old cousin. So, yea, I don't feel bad about destroying his life." "And that's why Jacob has Bella. I told him I wanted revenge too, so we planned this, and if I must say, we did better than expected."

Hearing this story made my blood run cold. I let someone from my enemycome into my home and use me. "You have some nerve." "What areyou going to do now, shoot me?" "I will, but right now." I gotup and went upstairs. "Gear up, we're about to hit the River Gang."
