~Flashback~
Reap what you sow

Those were the words that popped on in bold leaders on her phone. I looked around the room for patience and saw that she was still being entertained by Michelle and Erica's kids. I snatched the phone up and typed in her password, making the phone open up. I clicked on the message and read over it before clicking the phone number. No name came up for the number, so I tapped the call button and waited for it to ring. The phone wasn't able to call out and only went flat, making me cuss out loud. I looked back in patience's direction and saw her walking back in my direction. I had no time. So in my little time I snapped a couple of pics of the phone number and the message before deleting both out of her phone and putting it back just as soon as she arrived back at the table.

"Girl I was just asked twice if I could give them a test drive in my car" Patience giggled lightly as the kids still pleaded at her feet. "You think their begging now wait until they become teenagers" I giggled along with them on the outside with a worry free smile, but on the inside my mind was already formulating and planning out who could it possibly be?

~End of Flashback~
Once the Ferry finally made contact with the dock, I thanked the balding middle-aged man and tipped him 200 with my index finger to my lips, making him nod in understanding. I walked along the deserted and heavily polluted island. The smog from the city cloaked the island in a heavy cloud that made it seem almost faint to eyes. The water surrounding was filled with so much pollution that even the sea creatures that roamed the sea wouldn't dare to swim anywhere near the toxic waters. Rats and bugs ran rampant in this apocalyptic isle. And drugs dealers and the homeless also ruled the desolate plains.

I stood out among the city of death with my bright Corset top dress that's pinched in the waist and expanded at the ass, showing my s shape. And the sound of my heels seemed to echo louder on the desolate streets, making bugs scatter as I closed nearer. I turned down a narrow alleyway with my purse clenched tight around the life: ending weapon stowed away in my purse and an emotionless glint on my features.

I came to a halt in front of a dull and rusty old garage with barely any sustainable metal holding it together. I opened the metal door, giving life to a sicking squeak that could make your chest churn. But unlike the rust refined outer exterior, the inside was decent.  It smelled of water, but the fresh ocean, not like wet metal and wood. The wind constantly breathed in from under the door, sweeping the dust mites and trash from the floor. And in the center of the floor was a simple table with 10 chairs and a single lamp light to the side of the room.

I was the first one here.

While I waited for the others to arrive, I began pacing back and forth with my mind going over possible scenarios of how this could play out. Of all the people that could possibly be involved and what I had to do, to keep them quiet. I was pulled from my thoughts when the door was pulled open, bringing in a gush of lukewarm air and the smell of the outside world. King's large form stepped in, with his face covered with a face mask and the hoodie of his black jacket concealing the rest of his identity. Trailing behind him was a much smaller and chubby form. Her blonde hair was pulled into a ponytail and gently wrapped with a daisy bandanna and rainbow shades. Her dark blouse showcased the same bright colors in her skirt. If it wasn't Penelope, I would've thought a rainbow had thrown up on her.

"Hey sorry we're late, hope you weren't here too long" Penelope apologized, removing her shades and bandanna as king removed his hood and mask. "You're fine I'm just getting here myself so take a seat" I motioned to one of the seats before turning too king to greet him.
