Venno Rapter - The Hellish Series Returns - Series Two

The Spider/Shark Mafia: The Beginning of a New Alliance (Story 12 - Chapter 3)

With Dexx: 

The Anglerfish had managed to bandage up his wound with a scarf that one of the other denizens on the bus had given to him, having seen the blood start to seep through his shirt after he had taken his jacket off to wrap Elvira in so that she would feel more comfortable. 

After doing so, Dexx had quickly checked his bag to see what he had that could help. 

All he had inside his bag was his empty handgun, a single magazine of six more bullets, his night vision binoculars, a regular pair of binoculars, a pair of handcuffs, and his phone which had died earlier that day before making it back to the Bounty Hunter Agency. 

Dexx sighed in annoyance, wishing his phone hadn’t died so soon, the Anglerfish having forgotten to charge it the night before so it was down to only half battery when he woke up. They had been in a bit of a rush, too, so he hadn’t had the opportunity to grab his charger, or had the time to charge his phone before leaving for his hunt, both he and Venno wanting to ensure they got out early for Elvira’s birthday party. 

That’s why Dexx had left early with Elvira, the Anglerfish having sat through his interview alone while Venno managed to finish a couple things up before heading down to sit through the rest. 

Instead of carrying around walkie talkies, Venno had decided it would be best for everyone to use their cellphones instead, seeing as how walkie talkies had the capability of being tapped into when tuned into the same frequency. Plus, the files had recently been digitized, allowing Bounty Hunters to simply access their current bounty’s file without having to carry around the entire folder. 

Keven and Marabella had also remained by him, the couple wanting to ensure he was alright, and to make sure his daughter was doing alright after having settled down. 

Right now, everyone had still remained on the floor of the bus, Elvira nuzzled up in Dexx’s jacket while Marabella sat with her. 

Both Dexx and Keven snuck a quick glance outside, the two peeking out the window to see where any of the Shark Gang members were. 

Near the center of the intersection, the Great White Shark twins were both standing around listening to reports given to them from their gang members. Several other gang members were wandering around in search of whatever they could find. Some were scanning the area for any more intruders that dared come near the taken over main street. Others were rifling through abandoned vehicles, stealing whatever they could find that had been left inside. 

Keven’s eyes widened when he saw one of them walking over to his car, the Lemon Shark scrounging around inside before smiling as he pulled out a handgun and Marabella’s forgotten purse. 

“Shit, seriously?” muttered Keven, the Velociraptor glaring at the Lemon Shark as he quickly dashed over to some of his buddies. 

Dexx quickly nudged Keven and nodded his head in the direction a small group of Bull Sharks were coming towards them from. 

Keven’s eyes widened, the two both ducking back down as Dexx raised his hand, giving everyone in the bus the signal to be silent and remain low. 

Several minutes passed as everyone remained dead silent, the small group of Bull Sharks circling the bus, several of them trying to get a peek inside, but were unable to because the windows were too high for them to reach. 

Marabella silently grabbed Elvira’s hand, the Elementimp raising her finger to her mouth to indicate to the young Velociraptor Angler to keep silent. Elvira nodded in understanding, the young Velociraptor Angler knowing how bad it would be if she were to panic and start crying at a time like this.
