Danika

37

Danika grinned "it's been an absolute pleasure. I look forward to hearing from you Adrian and Fred" "take care" "both of you too" Danika said her goodbyes then checked her phone. 'its flashing red. Right' Danika walked off of the cruiseship and down along the pier. 'great' Danika kept her eyes away from Rylan, Trenton, Jonas and Brett and kept walking. "we can give you a lift" "no" "it saves you from walking back home. We don't mind" "I said no" Alexander, Craine and Otto closed in on all four men as they tried to surround Danika. "Let's go" "I believe I said no" "EAGLE" 'shit' Danika stopped "THAT CAP SUITS YOU. ARE YOU READY?" Danika nodded and walked Alexanders way "we only offered a lift" "that will never happen. You can give up" "I don't think we will.." Alexander rolled his eyes "bring their company out and throw them to the ground" "YOU MONGRELS" Danika chuckled "pay back. Minus the drugs but good luck to them walking" Danika looked at her car "don't" Danika nodded and walked away with Otto, Craine and Alexander. "These men are Targeting you any way they can. You need to do something and fast" hearing gun shots, Danika didnt hesitate to grab her gun out and shoot back. 'alex. He's alive..' shooting at Rylan, Trenton, Jonas and Brett, Danika knelt down "you good their soldier" "fuck. Alex" Otto and Craine lifted Alexander up "better than them. We need to move. Dads going to flip his lid" "most definitely".
Helping Alexander back to the car, Danika looked around 'those cunts are now dead. They crossed the wrong people. Alexander was shot though. That's upsetting'.
"My house.." "he will want you at home. He will want to speak with you" Danika nodded 'this is not how today should go. I have to help Clemett, fly to Fiji and then start working. I want this over and done with. Ernst is going to be very mad'.
Arriving back at Ernsts, everyone exited the car and helped Alexander inside. "WHO THE FUCK SHOT MY SON?" "one of the Hart's. Nine are dead. Danikas car is stationary. Alexander needs treatment" "take him. Eagle. Here" Danika walked to the table and sat down opposite Ernst. 'she got her captaincy today' "not the end any of us expected. This family of yours.." danikas eyes immediately emptied making Ernst apologise. "Your father and his men will not stop to have you with them. This has now put my son in danger" Danika nodded knowing that whatever she says, will only infuriate Ernst more. "It's time we pull back" Danika nodded "this means less protection for you" "thank you" Danika stood up and pushed her chair in. When Danika walked out, Ernst inhaled a deep breath 'i didn't mean she would be completely on her own. Maybe I should've worded that better'.

'i need to find a private plane and fast. I need to be there for April's captaincy. I also need to have Gunther with me. This may not go as planned but I will keep them safe'. While Danika walked home, Ernst sat staring at the table. "Dad.. dad where is Danika?" "She left" "on her own? Dad they are trying to.." "I know what they are doing. I worded things wrong. She took it as we won't be here for her anymore" "WHAT?" "Alexander, you were shot due to her family.." "they aren't her family" Ernst sighed "due to the Hart's.." "yeah and she killed the four there. We disabled others. But there are plenty more out there. How are we supposed to know she is okay?" "I don't know" worry ran through the men as they all joined the table. 'danika is a very direct person. This won't be sitting well with her. I don't know what was said but for her to walk out, it can't have been good'.

'where the hell are my men?' trying to call Rylan, Jonas, Trenton, Brett, rocky, Damien, Chris, jack, Peter and Gareth, worry ran through xavion. 'my daughter was at the pier. NO. THEY TRIED TO FUCKING GET HER' xavion rushed out of his house with Mathew, Ewin, harwin and jack. "Boss" "the pier.." hearing sirens in the distance, xavion swallowed hard "GO. GO. GO".
arriving at the pier, xavion jumped out of the car. 'NO...' "sir you can't be here" xavion moved back while putting his hands on his head. 'they tried to attack my daughter and ended up dead. I fucking warned them not to do anything. RYLAN. HE DOESN'T FUCKING LISTEN' "XAVION" "are you him?" Xavion nodded "come through" xavion rushed over to Liam. "Boss, they wanted to get her. Men came from everywhere. Rylan, Jonas, Trenton and Brett fired at Danika, Alexander, Craine and Otto. They have started a war" "my daughter?" "She was walking... Thomas won't be" xavion lowered his head "I'm sorry they pulled you in, Liam. Never listen to others. This is my family" "what about Danika and those men?. We know Alexander was shot" "what?.. oh fuck. This is not good at all. Let's get you boys some help".

'found one' Danika set everything up for Wednesday and closed her laptop. 'im not answering anyone unless it's Teresa. I will contact Gunther. He knows to wait for my call from Wednesday onwards. I don't want anyone around. I want to get out and get there safely. I don't even know if Clemett will want me to do this job or not anymore. He's in with Ernst. I don't know anything. I didn't mean to get Alexander shot. I didn't ask them to be there but it rests on my shoulders. Of course it does. How could I be so stupid?'.

'its time' Danika put her suitcase at the front door and dialled Gunthers number. "Danika?" "Forty five minutes at the air strip" "I'm ready. Meet you there" Danika ended the call and walked out to the cab. Setting all of the security, Danika got in and directed the driver. "a long holiday ma'am?" "Presents" "always wonderful receiving gifts" "I believe they will like them. I have had you before" "yes ma'am".
Arriving at the air strip, Danika paid for her fare and got out. Grabbing her suitcase, Danika confidently wheeled it to the plane. "miss Keller?" "Correct. You are Jessup?" "Yes ma'am. I will need to view your suitcase" "of course" Danika opened her suitcase for Jessup to view "a young child?" "My niece. I like to spoil her" Jessup grinned "it's fine ma'am. You can pack it all away" "thank you. Safety first right?" "Always" 'thank you Lord' Danika wheeled her suitcase onto the plane then walked back out. "he has just arrived ma'am. Family?" "Gunther. He's actually the father of my niece" "I'm sure she will be thrilled to have him home" Danika put on a smile 'if he fucks it up, he won't see her again'. Gunther wheeled his suitcase over and placed it down. "Sir, I will need to check your suitcase" "expected" Gunther opened his suitcase. 'clothes and photos. Nothing in here' "that's fine. It can be packed away and we can get moving" "your co-pilot" "just on time" Danika nodded. Entering the plane with Gunther, Danika waited for Gunther to sit then did the same. "It's been a long week waiting to go home" "I left it until the last minute" "have you spoken with your father?" "No" "I was told men played up" "that is correct" "the cause?" "The ending to my captaincy. Disappointing really" "it should've been a day to celebrate" "I believe so. I have a job already" gunthers eyes lit up telling danika he is happy for her "you must've shown a lot of potential" "I do hope I can stick with it" "I'm sure you will. You have always been one that puts her mind to something and accomplishes whatever it may be" Danika nodded. "ready to leave it all behind?" "I am. I want my girls. What about you?" "Like always I do it solo" "you shouldn't have to do that" "those I have been closest too have left me. It's not a strange feeling to me". "what is your offer for work?" "Two fifty for six months work" "whoa. That's a lot" "an offer, I couldn't refuse" "it's a large amount. I can see why you wouldn't. Have you looked over the cruiseship?" "Yes it's impressive. Only eight hours of work a day too" 'she will have a wonderful time'.
