In the Deep

Chapter 23

    Hex was livid as he processes the information he and his brother received. How can she be so oblivious!
     * Earlier that night*
       Ruppingz was always one to have a kick back after each party they throw. It was just something for the family. They each would get a few of their foot soldiers and a couple influential connection together.
      RUPPINGZ ran the distribution aspect of The Gilzeen crime family. They worked directly under Jaceyon Gilzeen ( the plug)  The three cousins ran different section of the operation and only a few person truly knows what they do and how they operate.
     Being poor ambitious youth they got involved with jaceyon who thought them the game, they  claimed all that they had. Their business was calculated and they only report to jaceyon. They didn't have a problem with that because at eighteen they had more money than they had use for. They when back into their community and give back making sure they helped with schooling, medical expenses and even after-school programs.
      The kick back was going great as they dived and conquer. Trying to hatch new deals or paying off dirty cops and politicians. This was nothing new to them. With them planning on going to collage to solidify their wealth this like this would become annual and they will need persons they can trust to keep things flowing.
       As the business aspect of the might closed. The boys gathered for a game of poker when a Top Runner by the name of Devin approach them
       " Can sit in on this one ?" Semaj nodded for him to join
       The game was going good for Stefan who seem to be emptying their pockets.
      " no G you a obeah man" Kareem laughed
   " No bro mi just good at everything mi do" Stefan laughed
     "Move from yah so, just know mi a barrow 50 gran" semaj voiced
     " count you a count card enno pussy" hex laughed
     " yow mi can't play a next pot cause my pocket no so strong" Devin spoke with a nervous laugh.
     "Big leagues " the four boys spike in union this made them laugh.
      " on a serious note yuh know mi have some info/ business opportunity fi unno tho" Devin spoke after gathering is courage
     "Give we di info first" Hex spoke knowing they don't do business with any and everybody.
      " OK so there is a man dat dem call the boogeyman, I was approached by his ppl to help them in their collection process"  the smile that brimmed in his face wasn't recipricated on his companion.
      "Do you even know what the boogeyman collect?" Semaj anger was now showing on his light skin
     "Yea but is not like we know dem?" Devin spoke as if thar made things better
      "You think a rich ppl pickney you ago do dem things yah to? A di sane poor ppl dem weh me and you come from!" Kareem couldn't controll is anger he felt towards Devin.
       " when did you get approached? " Stefan asked in the most calm and collected voice.
     " two weeks ago" devin was now regretting what he said to them. He should have known they would go for it . Ruppingz is a boss crew and didn't work with other they gave the orders.  They were like saviors to the communities they helped and from how they are looking at him it's best if he left before he ends up missing.
      "So you just want to recuite us ?" Stefan asked watching is every move
    "No enno bossy, them ask mi to see if unno want a cut seeing as a unno mi really work fah" Semaj hiss his teeth
    "You do work fi dem already ?" That question from Kareem made him go visibly pale.
     Hex laughed " so you go behind we back and now you a come give diss" hex stood up and went beside Devin  chair  " if so much ppl never deh yah mi rest mi nine innw yub bloodclat mouth and mek yuh swalla couple shot." 
        Trafficking wasn't never something they would get involved in knowing that the faith of those kids was worse than death. Seeking drugs is one thing you take it of your iwn free will. But selling a person is barbaric.
      "Lock off diss and send home everybody" Stefan spoke to one of his men to which the patrons left with a hitch.
     Calling Jaceyon they to inform him of that they know they continued to question Devin.
        "How many have you taken ?" Semaj asked
     "Seven" his whispered only enough for them to hear.
      " yow mek we go country" Kareem spoke this was a abbondon water pump house in a rural community that they use in times like this.
      One the way they got a ca from Jaceyon saying he was coming to meet them there because they needed more information from Devin.
       After a hour drive they got to the pump house in the cover of darkness.
      Jaceyon pulled up but he wasn't alone Tajee man was with him too Justin Gilzeen the man with the most power the head of the family.
      "Yow Hex relax" Semaj spoke before the men entered the room knowing that they weren't on the  best of terms.
     They got the greeting out the way and Justin stood to the side as they continued to question and beat Devin.
      "Seven bloodclat gal yuh tek weh !" Kareem connected his first to the now pealing skin.
     "Weh yuh drop dem off ?" Kareem is the enforcer he as more problem with beating answers out of this man.
      " a wear house!!!Reem do mi will tell yuh everything mi know pleases mi beg yuh no kill mi!" His begging seen to irritated all them men present
      "Death nah go come so easy memba mi tell yuh so speak yuh fucking mind" Hex voiced
      "After mi drop off the package one night mi ova hear two man a talk bout a container leaving di waft over di east bay, mi no know nothing else" his tears ment nothing and he as worse to come.
      Stefan was paying close attention not only to the interrogation but to the two men that were in higher position then them. The Gilzeen family run the east bay for the warft so what is their connection to Trafficking?.
         Kareem continued to torture Devin with out mercy, he wanted him to beg for death, he hated his kind and thought him less than human to subject women and children to that kind of life.
     "Kareem,we have other things to do we get wah wi want" jaceyon spoke
    All four men pulled out there guns and riddled Devin body with gun shot.
     Leaving the building as the clean up crew arrived.
     The three cars headed back to Kingston, some more burdened than others.
     Stefan told the others what he had put together and they planned on getting answers before the sun rises.
       Getting back to Kingston they followed the Gilzeens back to one of the club they own. Getting inside they were greeted by Jason ( the cleaner) he dealt with the cleaning of the money and manages most of the clean businesses. Passing through the packed club they were lead to the back.
      " take a seat gentlemen" Jason spoke as they entered what seem to be a conference room. 
      "The information  received tonight is not only perplexing but damaging" Justin spoke not wanting speculation to fuck you his business.
     " we have been awea4 if this man fir months, he had approached us to go into business" he continued to explain what had happened. He does owe Ruppingz an explanation but he has come to admire and respect them. He would have thought they would have jumped at the opportunity and let Greece take over but after the call he got from His cousin he saw that they had more to them. He doesn't trust epa asily and even tho they work close with his cousin he never had the need to speak to them. Until now, " we know the identity of the boogeyman and his associates"
No form of shock was found on the faces infront of him, before he could speak Stefan spoke
        " we know there is some connection between your family and the boogeyman, but it's just coming to my attention that you didn't sign off on your port being used in a sex Trafficking ring" Justin nodded astonished by the on point calculation of Stefan.
         "The person in my family who is Incolved will be dealt with soon" Justin spoke
    " so who is the other persons?" Hex asked wanting names
     " this is going to be a shock to you, the person who owns the name boogeyman is Everton Green."
     Stefan laughed as the name registered in the voice of shante "Evatan one seed!!!!!!" She would shout when addressing Tajee Green. It was a bit comical to him because one of the most slef ricious he person knows father is one of the worse of man kind, she is also in a relationship with one of the biggest drugs and gun smuggler in jamaica.
        Everyone was as always one step behind Stefan so he chose to speak
     " Everton Green is Tajee father" he said with a snicker.
    " how dat funny? " hex asked is soft spot for Tajee is evident to everyone in the room including Justin who face shows no expression.
        " its kinda funny" Kareem and semaj snickered
      " She surrounded by criminals and secrets yet she think she as all the answers in the world" semaj laughed
      "Not mention she is a bit self righteous" Stefan added.
      "It seem you guys forgot who your talking about ?" Justin spoke in a nonsense tone
     "Yea, no, we kinda forgot where we were "  Kareem spoke.
      "She as nothing to do with what is happening,ppl just fuck up " Hex sighed  even tho he is constantly telling her about her nieve behavior and lack of awareness.
        " So what do you plan on doing about this?, seeing as this is more of a family problem" semaj voiced
     " the fact that you know getting rid of the shouldn't be that hard" Kareem interjected
      Jason sat and listen making not ha ing nothing add because he agreed with Kareem clear house but the fall out if tajee was to find out  would be a hard blow to the two of them.
         They spend the another few hours working out plans ans scenarios.
      It was 7 in the morning when they left the club with one solid place to put the boogeyman out of business and uprooting the others they have recuted within the organization.
