We ended up having to drag Johnny out of his "friends" house and back to his car where we all got in and were on our way back to the warehouse. When we got back I noticed Peter had a habit of staying close to me while we walked inside the warehouse to be met with Jahseh sitting on a chair in the entrance.

Ski stood at his side with his arms crossed over his chest and a confused look when he saw Peter walking beside me. Jahseh however glared at Peter the whole time. "Baby come to daddy." He soon called out and it didn't take a rocket scientist to know he was talking about me.

Following his orders I walked up to him and sat on his lap to which he quickly wrapped an arm around my waist. "Who is this and why have you brought him here?" Jahseh questioned holding his death stare towards Peter. "I don't know why they decided to bring him. I just went with the flow."

Johnny protested glaring at Michael and I. Jahseh gave him a warning glare before speaking. "You had one job to do and that was to make sure my girl was safe. However you failed to do that and instead made Michael run out of the meeting room telling me she was in danger." Jahseh growled clearly trying to control his anger.

Peter looked from both of them curiously as I giggled watching to see what he would do next. "He said he needs our help. That he had no intention of hurting my sister." Michael spoke up next making Jahseh tilt his head with a smirk forming on his lips. "He wants us to help him? What does he take us for good guys?"

Jahseh spoke with a chuckle as Ski laughed as well. "Excuse me but the fate of the entire world is on the line. So if you guys aren't one of the good guys now then you might want to rethink that." Peter spoke up making the room go dead silent. Jahseh looked at Peter with no emotion in his eyes.

"Babe get up for a second." He then said tapping my thigh with his fingers. This couldn't be good and I looked at Peter with worry as I got up from my spot on Jahseh's lap. Watching him closely I saw Jahseh walk up to Peter glaring into his eyes. "I never gave you permission to talk. So I suggest from this point on you stay quite."

Jahseh growled out as Peter gave him the same energy back. Peter definitely had some balls if he was stepping up to the leader of this establishment like this. "I think we should hear what he has to say. If what he's saying is true then we might as well help him. This is the fate of the entire world in our hands."

"You can't run a mafia if the world is completely destroyed right?" I spoke up as Jahseh looked at me from over his shoulder. I could see the gears begin to turn in his head with what I just said and I knew he needed more of a push. "Plus if you really think about it Jah bear you can't have me if we are all dead."

I pressed with a seductive look and a wink his way. Jahseh licked his lips and looked at me with darkened eyes full of hunger and lust. I had finally got through to him. "We will hear what you have to say thanks to the persuasion of my girl." Jahseh stated looking back at Peter. "But I'll give you about 20 minutes to explain."

He then said coming to sit back down in his seat grabbing my waist once again pulling me onto his lap. Peter stepped forwards looking at everyone in turn before starting to speak again. "Well to start off this Ted talk I would like to say that I had done some research on Doctor Morbius."

"About his creations and his time in New York before he came here to Florida. Bottom line is that someone by the name of Loxias Crown met up with New York's most feared man. Loxias has supposedly stolen a serum from Doctor Morbius and they are planning to turn it into a gass and spray it into the air using a tower."

Peter explained making us all sit up and listen with a panicked expression on our faces. All of us except for Jahseh who looked to the ground and closed his eyes. His grip on my waist tightened and would surely leave a mark. My brother looked alarmed at the news and waited for Peter to finish.

"From what my team and I have found out they are also being helped by Adrian Toomes. Otherwise known as The Falcon. We're trying to create an army of super humans and humans... We need all the help we could get." Peter then explained before going quite. Jahseh had gone quite as well and continued to look at the ground.

He looked like he was deep in thought after Peter's words and it made me worry even more. "Jahseh we need to help them! That serum is too dangerous to spread out into the city!" My brother shouted out to him in desperation. "We'll help under one condition."

Jahseh then spoke making everyone's attention go on him. "Bashar is mine. Nobody else go after him." He said making everyone nod their heads. Well everyone except for me. "Whose Bashar?" I asked curiously looking around the room. "Bashar Barakah Jackson. He's the leader of the New York Mafia."

My brother began looking from me to Jahseh worridly. Why would he be worried? It's just one man. "He's got a lot of deaths caused by his hand. Including someone Jahseh knows." Johnny said next making Jahseh snap his head to look at him. "Johnny..." Jahseh began but was cut off.

"QUITE!!!" Johnny said before continuing. "We call him Bashar because we don't give a fuck. But the people in New York call him something else." Johnny said making my eyes widen. "What do they call him?" I asked then wanting to know more.

"Smoke... Pop Smoke." Jahseh was next to speak looking at me with anger in his eye.
