"I have it to protect us from them, they have more control then you could imagine and if anything was to happen to you I could never forgive myself" he said as he finished explaining the situation to me, I didn't know how to feel about all of this I was taken back by his words, how could all this be caused over nothing. "So that's why you haven't been around much" "yea I don't want them to follow me here and know where you live, they tried following me today but I lost them" "you think it will die down soon" "I don't think it will until they get what they want" "and what exactly do they want" "drugs" he said softly looking me in the eyes. I didn't know how to feel about all of this I was just looking at him til he broke the eyes contact by looking down at his phone that started ringing it was Nico "hey wassup man" "mhm" "alright I'm on my way" "where are you going" I said frustrated because he just got here "Nico needs me" "alright then by" "I'll be back tonight okay" "okay be safe" "I will" then he left.
JAVON
I got to his house and Michael, Sapo, Chino, and some other dudes I've never seen before were there. I was confused but I headed towards them "wassup young blood" Sapo said coming up to me and dabbing me up "what going on" "well yo boy, Michael got some information out that girl" "Izzy" "yea that girl" "what how?" "She texted me trying to get in contact that with you and asked her what about and she said she needed to talk and then I started flirting with her so she would talk to me and I told that me and you wasn't talking right now so I wouldn't be able to get a hold of you for her and she was like that's alright fuck him why don't you come over to pitbull's house that her, Josie, and Carl was there so I told her to drop the addy and she sent it to me" Michael said proudly "so now y'all know y'all homeboy was a fraud and we got that bitches address so it's time to give him a little visit" Nico said loading his gun "so what we are we exactly finna do" "well like I said we gotta put the dog down right we can either can get him to drop all this or we can drop him it's his choice" "we gonna get our shit back too from y'all's little friend" chino said "what you mean" "yall wondered why yall always ran out of shit so quickly but wasn't making shit that's because he was giving it to them" chino said "so the plan is get in and get out, deal with pitbull first then worry about the drugs and money y'all hear"
Nico said now being serious. I didn't know about killing a dude but if that's what we had to do that's just what has to be done. We waited til it got late and started heading over there, it was about an hour from Nico's house, I was in the car with chino and some other dude, I was a bit nervous about all this and I think chino noticed "ay young blood you gonna be fine this bitch ain't finna do nun just remember what Nico said get in and get out" "yea I know but ion know about killing him" "I know you young, man but it's just what got to be done, you was brought into this way of life now you gotta live it. My dad was never around so I starting just hanging around anybody that's when I met Michael and Nico was his cousin from his mamas side so he was born into the shit but because we was friends Nico trusted me so he let me help them but he didn't like Carl that's why Carl never knew shit but Nico and Michael took me in when I didn't have shit so I owe him for everything. We got to the house and it was loud music coming from the inside to there was alot of people there most likely or just their main people, we waited for everyone else to pull up and that's when Nico got out "yall ready for this" Nico said "as ready as I'll ever be" I said "chino and Javon yall go get the money, Sapo and Michael the drugs, imma talk to the big dawg and everyone else get the bitches that try to get in the way" "so how we finna get in here without getting caught" Michael questioned "that way" Nico said pointing up to the roof " we got a map of this whole house just from the info you gave us, Chino y'all go to the side widow on the top that's gonna bring you to the master bedroom where the money is, Sapo yall go through the side window on the left side of the house it's gonna be your first widow, that's where most the drugs at but when big dawg is down we gonna get the rest that's in the main room" "alright well me and wanna gonna head off to do what we needa do" chino said then signaling me to come on. "u got it open" "almost" I said to chino while he was lifting me up so I could open the widow "I got it" I said climbing into the window "it's clear" "okay help me up then" "alright" I said pulling him up into the room "imma look over here you look over there" chino said pointing to the other side of the room. I  went over and didn't find anything "ion see nun" "look in the closet" I went to the closet and opened it all the draws and looked through all the boxes but didn't find anything. I couldn't find shit  then I noticed the bed side table that I didn't look in, I went over and tried to open it but it wouldn't open "ay it won't open, it's like locked" "lemme see" he said coming over, he tried but couldn't get it open either "hold up I got sum" he pulls out a knife and runs it through the top of the drawer and something clicked at he did it "got it" he said while opening the drawer "holy shit" he said as I looked into the drawer to see about millions of dollars "lets check the bottom one" he said doing the same as he did to the top "young blood we rich motherfucker we rich" he said getting excited, we were bout done putting the money in the bag when we heard the door rattle "who locked the door" someone said from the other side but the person sound familiar "don't worry about them let's hurry up" chino said to me in a whisper so the person couldn't hear us, we finished and went to the window and threw the bags down to Sapo since he was already outside on lookout as we were about to leave that's when the door busted open and I came eye to eye with Carl. "What the fuck yall doing here" he said holding up a gun and walking towards me "don't act all tuff young blood" chino said coming up behind him holding a gun to his head "now put it down or you can go down" chino said seriously to Carl, he threw down the gun and put his hands up "it didn't have to be this way why you switch up" he asked Carl "don't start with that shit y'all act like y'all actually wanted me around y'all never told me shit and I was friends with Michael forever but Javon comes around and y'all trusted him instantly. I knew he was right but that didn't mean he had to do this he could have just told us but I didn't say anything, "we loved you man but you was just always sneaky how you expected us to trust you the way we trust wanna" "I just wanted to feel included" "well it's to late for that" "and it's to late for y'all as well" he said as I looked behind him to see a man with a gun standing at the door and without hesitation he fired barley missing us "you really thought I gave a fuck what y'all thought fuck y'all" he said bending over and picking up the gun "but you, you took everything from me, you took Michael, my friends, you took Izzy away when i liked her for the longest but she wanted you and still does, so I think it's about time to get you out the picture" he said holding the gun to my head, I went to get the gun out of my pants when I shot fired but i didn't go down but carl did I looked at chino and we was just smiling sadly, the man was on the ground as well so thought we had won but then I noticed that chino was shot as well on his side "go wanna go I've done my time go you have so much to live for" "no no chino I'm not leaving you I don't have anything all I have is yall please come on" I said trying to pull him up "no wanna stop go you have to live, live for me that girl needs you and you need her so go please" "no I can't chino come on bro get up please" "here these are for you and please call my girlfriend and tell her I'm not going home" she said handing me his chain, keys, and his phone "imma get you help" "I don't want it mijo I'm finally gonna be free from this shit of a life, stay strong man just know I'll always be by your side when you need me most" was the last thing he said to me but I couldn't just leave him I stayed by his side holding him in my arms blood all over me and the house was silent, this is what we wanted wasn't it but I didn't want it to end like this I wanted for us to go back to Nico's house together with the money and to see him happy, he was happy when we found the money now it's just doesn't feel right. I was just sitting then crying with him in my arm I was crying out of anger because I didn't want to cry and I didn't want this to happen.
NICO
we got everyone, everyone was dead or left. We left out the house and everyone was outside waiting for me to come out "we all good" "mhm" everyone said, I looked around and didn't see chino or Javon and my heart dropped "where's chino and the kid" "I haven't seen then" "well stop fucking standing here and look for them" I ran back in the house, I was suppose to protect that kid from any harm but all I did was put him in harm "JAVON" "JAVON IM NOT FUCKING PLAYING WITH YOU MAN WHERE ARE YOU" "CHINO" then I heard a muffled noise coming from up stairs and it sounded like someone crying so went up and followed the sound, I went into a room and there was people on the floor then someone looked up at me, it was Javon but he was holding someone and cry, it was chino. "no this can't be real" "he took a bullet for me" "come on man we gotta go before the cops show" "we can't just leave him here" "we'll be back for him I promise" "I can't leave him" "you got too come on I got you we'll get through this together" I said reaching my hand out to him, he was hesitant but grabbed it and I helped him up and something fell out from in between the phone, chain and keys he was holding "you dropped something" I said as he looked down and grabbed the thing that fell and it was a piece of paper folded nicely, I knew who's folding that was only one person folded exactly like that, chino. We got down there and they was asking where chino was, I just put my finger to my mouth for them to shut up because Javon didn't seem like he could take another person saying his name, he's seen to much. The guy that rode with chino and Javon I told him to come with me so he could have a moment with himself because that's what he needed. "hey go home okay we'll handle everything at my house you just get home, okay and come by in the morning" "ok" he said in a low tone I could hear the pain in his voice and it hurt me to hear it because I knew him and chino were close, I was there for him but chino was there when his shitty ass father wasn't, I knew it was over for chino when I seen the phone, keys, and chain in wanna's hand because he's always told me that his stuff was going to him not anyone else because he was was always there for him as much as he was there for him.
