Im standing behind the one-way glass, watching on as one of our lawyers does his best to interrogate our snitch on what he got.

Javier brown, he looks like a little teenager who just got caught up in the wrong way of life, and that's probably exactly what he is. His short brown curly hair falls slightly over his eyebrows, his matching brown eyes almost make him look like something out of a damn Disney show.

This kid is not meant to be in this life, it almost makes me angry how innocent he looks, and I know that he just needed money unfortunately that's how el rey de la sangre get you.

"Okay javier tell us everything you know and remember you're under oath. We give you protective services in exchange for you telling us what goes on." The lawyer stressed to him. Closing his navy blue suit as he takes a seat across from him.

This oath is exactly what we need to make it any further, it means that since they don't know, he's the rat he can continue to live his drug dealing life, or at least under the illusion of this life, and we can have an inside source, everything that happens.

So far, we've heard tape recordings, seen text messages all we need is one location and we can arrest him by tonight.

Then i can get back to ziana and the life that we had together and it will all be over with

The kid leans forward in his chair resting his arms on the table, so that his brown jacket squeaks off of it.

"I need full assurance of my immunity because if the Don found out, he would kill me by tonight." The lawyer chuckles, wiping of the sleeve of his suit jacket.

" how many times do I have to promise you, we have you, we have witness protection for you and anyone that you're connected to. And if you're thinking of backing out I want to let you know that we can give you over to the Don before anyone else has a chance to." He gulps a huge gulp of nerves in at the threat and the whole thing is almost like cinema to watch.

"We will tell him that you've been working with us since the start and then who will protect you? Who will protect you when we show him all of the information that you have given us the videos the names, the recordings..."

"Okay okay okay, I will talk already just give me a second." A satisfied smirk comes on the lawyers face, the guy is good.

"you're a smart man, Javier. A very smart man indeed. Whenever you're ready." And just like that the kid starts to tell us everything. Where they meet for secret meetings, what they talk about what other cities they are connected to... he tells it all.

Phase one of interrogation, the shake down. Threaten to take away all they have then Get all the information you can while the pot is hot.

I rub my hands in joy of how close the smell of victory is to me. I can already dream of me arresting them once and for all and this city finally being safe from their crime.

"They meet at the Old chinese restaurant downtown. About a block away from here, you know the one with the golden Hen in the window?" He confessed

"Oh they got some good food down there-" one of the other lawyers watching on behind the glass with me whispered, all i could do was give him a cheap laugh because I can't miss this for a second.
