Our Challenge

Black Market.

Jasmine POV

We are at a drop-off location for Lyric to go on the inside for the codes.

"I can definitely see why Lyric was excited about this attire. You would think you would be hot in this but it's the total opposite and it's comfortable."

I say as I look at Kade who is also dressed in the same attire.

"How are we going to see what Lyric's doing?" I ask Kade.

"Nancy made Bunny some contact lenses with cameras in them. We will be able to see what she sees." Zaiden says as he watches Lyric who is at a a different location.

He looks at me and Kade, "I'm going to not look at the video because if I don't like what I see I will go in there."

Kade nods his head, "Your dad is supposed to come back once the people come and take Lyric."

A van pulls up and snatches Lyric and Joseph in it.

"Wait! Why is my dad getting taken?! Kade!"

We look at Nancy and she is on her laptop, "Joseph decided he would go in with Lyric. He wants to keep an eye on her and make sure she is safe."

I let out a relaxed sigh and I look at Zaiden.

I would be lying saying it's not weird not hearing Zaiden talk as much. Ever since it was decided for Lyric to go in by herself he has been more so in thought.

He only really talks to Lyric but other than that he won't talk to anybody else unless you talk to him first.

Zaiden looks at me, "Maybe your dad can stop a disaster from happening."

I see something run through his eyes and Kade stands in between us, "That's enough Zaiden."

Zaiden walks to the van, "Let's go."

We look at him, "Where are we going?"

He puts his shades on, "I found out you can just walk into the auction. It's held at an underground black market. We can go ahead and recon the place. While we recon, Nancy can stay in the van or find a place to sit and watch Bunny and Joseph."

Me and Nancy look at Kade and he nods his head, "How did you find that out?"

He shrugs his shoulders, "Along with the brothers' shopping list I told Luke to ask around about a black market being anywhere."

I roll my eyes, "Of course you did."

Kade lets out a sigh, "Let's go do some recon then."

Joseph POV

Me and Lyric are in the back of the van and there are three people here with us. One in the back with a gun and two in the front.

I look at Lyric and then at the man with the gun to my back. I count three with my fingers and I reach up front for the man in the passenger seat and twist his neck.

Lyric does the same to the man in the back with us. I look at the driver and he nods his head.

I let out a sigh and Lyric looks at the driver, "Why aren't we killing him?"

I look at her, "This is the other man on the inside. Lyric meet Victor. Victor meet Lyric."

I hold out some contact lenses, "When you get the chance, put these in. They have cameras and we have people who can watch from our point of view."

He takes them and puts them in his pockets, "Have you found anything out? What does Lyric need to do exactly?"

He pulls over and we throw the two bodies out. We stand outside the van and Lyric stands out with us.
