(Third Person)

Farhad clutched his bandaged hand and held a cloth wrapping as he walked through the driveway entrance to Amir's mansion. The place was located near the center of the city. Farhad alongside other guests kept to the side to make way for expensive cars. It seemed Amir was keeping things business as usual despite the deteriorating plan. 

The guards out front immediately took notice of the rugged-looking teen. What are you doing here, kid? Get out! " One shouted. Farhad raised his arms to surrender but winced at the pain. " Tell Amir Farhad needs to see him. It's about HomeRun and the girl. " He explained. One of the guards nearby accessed his mic and called it in. " All clear. Frisk him. " He said after getting clearance. The guard who confronted Farhad frisked him for weapons then led him inside. 

Farhad contained his amazement at the lavish display of wealth around him. The mansion's first floor had been converted into a casino. Rich Bangladeshis and foreigners populated the area. " This is why we steal and kill. For a chance to live better. " Farhad said to himself. When he and the guard went up the grand staircase, Shadek was waiting for them.

" I'll take him from here. " The lead enforcer said to the guard who nodded and left. He took the cloth wrapping from Farhad and felt it to discern its contents. Shadek and Farhad entered a dining room on the second floor. Amir and multiple women were surrounded by servants and guards as they eat dinner. Standing beside's Amir's seat was his female bodyguard. Shadek took Amir's cloth and walked up to his boss, placing and unwrapping it. 

Amir glanced at the cloth which contained Farhad's finger. " Don't you see I'm eating? " He asked sarcastically. His bodyguard did her best not to crack a smile at the grisly image. Shadek quickly refolded the cloth. " I had him. " Farhad said. " Had who? " Amir asked. " HomeRun, the man you want. I lost him... Outside a factory and near a market. " The teen replied. Amir looked up at Shadek. 

" Tell your men to scour the area, and check with the colonel if he found anything. " He ordered. " Yes sir. " Shadek agreed and left the dining room. " Everyone, leave us. " Amir ordered. The women left first then the guards and servants followed. Only the bodyguard remained. Amir motioned Shadek to come closer. " What is this? " He asked regarding the finger. " A gift. " Farhad answered. " When you catch him, I want to be the one to pull the trigger. If you let me do that, I'll give you the other finger! " 

Amir got up and motioned for Farhad to sit down. " He made me feel like a fool. " The teen grumbled. " Of course he did. HomeRun is one of the best assassins in the world. You're only a kid. Hmm? " Amir said rhetorically before sitting down. " Keep your other finger. Here's some advice, a parting gift now that you're no longer under my service. " Farhad went tense in shock as Amir sat down and glanced at his bodyguard. 

" No matter how badass you think you are... There's always a badass who's bigger than you. You deserve to know that before she kills you. " Amir mused. " What, no! I won't fail again! Please give me another chance! " Farhad pleaded. The drug lord shook his head. " Sorry kid, you interrupted a guy who was after HomeRun for me. If you weren't involved, this mess would've ended already. " 

Farhad frantically looked across the room for a weapon to defend himself. It became all too clear why Amir had him searched. The teen grabbed a steak knife and shot up but didn't have enough time to react as the bodyguard withdrew a silenced MP-443 Grach pistol, putting a bullet in his shoulder. Farhad fell back and brought the chair down with him. 

The bodyguard slowly walked to the other side of the table and shot his right knee, giggling to herself during the act. Farhad shouted in agony and turned on his stomach in an attempt to crawl away. " Please! Spare me! " he begged. " Can you just kill him already? "Amir asked the female.
