~*Rounds Square Mall, Downtown.*~

As three racers sped up the streets swerving in and out of the Downtown traffic, they watched as the Hounfor drives off with one of the crew behind the wheel, taking it to a safe location. Kyouki cackled. They had him, they all came to a stop. Parking and hopped out with Li issuing orders.

"Carlos, go with Shaundi and scout from the second floor. Brian go with them. Bobby, come with me." Kyouki and Bobby took to the elevator heading to the underground mall. The short ride down the elevator dinged, letting them out. "Bobby, I'll let you in on a secret. You can't tell anyone." When the doors closed behind them, Kyouki dropped the bomb. "I had a run in with them. Shit!" Seeing the General and some of his men walk by. She pressed Bobby up against the wall. "Run in with Sunshine and the General. They fucked with my head. That's what really was going on with me. I was seeing all types of fucked shit... Gat and Noel were covering for me."

"Cuz, why you ain't say nothing?" Bobby was mad, but not as mad as he should be.

"Because. I didn't know what was happening. I damn sure didn't want you involved. But I figured as you have been of a huge help to me. And as long as you don't say shit. Cause best believe I will deny it." Kyouki warned, twisting a silencer on her pistol. "You needed to know who had really killed Sunshine."

Bobby nodded. "Yeah, it was Gat..." Peering around the corner, he saw they were a suitable distance away. He saw Saints waving in various locations.

Kyouki took the signal to slide out of cover. She took aim. Now. Robert Michael James, never in his life seen his cousin in a fight. When she slid out, it was all business. The shots went off clean and quick. Before the first body hit the ground, she ducked back behind the railing, out of sight. She peaked over the railing, seeing the General looking back behind him. His men lay bleeding on the polished floor, and then at the woman who did it. Kyouki smiled and waved.

Again, Robert Michael James had never seen his older cousin fight, let alone shoot anyone. With what he just seen, with his own eyes? History breaking.

"Hey buddy. Had ya' heard what I did to your boy?" Kyouki came out into the open. "Oop, would you look at that? Your little entourage is no more." The other two he had surrounded him fell as well. "Now. I will give you a head start before I give you your well-deserved parting gift." Taking aim again, she shot at his feet. "One, you will get the fuck out of my city, or two, you will die in my city."

The General laughed. "All of your bravado. What makes you think I only had these fools with me?" The General clicked a button on his cell and several Samedi stood out from the shops in the mall.

Bobby could see a wicked smile forming on his cousin's face as he peered around the corner again, and his eyes went wide. Kyouki's phone rang. She put it on speaker for the big bald guy to hear.

"Yeah?"

"Outside clear, Boss, heading in."

"Roger that. See... I had planned to push you out nice and easy like. Maybe even negotiate." She placed the phone in her pocket. "You did me dirty, and ya boy suffered. Oh, did you get the selfies we took? I am sure someone in your camp had slipped them too you, yeah? Ah, maybe you didn't see them, as you were in a pissy mood. Anywho..."

"I want her dead!" The man angrily pointed at Kyouki. All the men he had stashed away in the shops took aim.

Kyouki laughed. "He fucked with my head, and I took his. I call it even." Kyouki turned her back and counted as she walked to the stairs to the lower level. "Six. Yeah, you didn't notice, I hadn't stopped counting... When I get to twenty. Seven. I want a nice fight from you. Eight." One by one, silent shots fired, puffed clouds of blood spray decorated the walls and floors of shops where they once stood. Those who were poised to shoot the Saints' leader dead, as per instructed.
