I drove to a burger place called "Freckled Bitches". I didn't know where to go and I was kinda hungry. I looked around and saw a lady in a really fancy suit walk into the building. And two guys drove away in a purple car.
I was admiring some of the rare beauty of Stilwater, when finally King woke up.
King:Eh...uh.. What happened?
Me:You picked me up from the airport then people in purple cars tried to shoot is. And they did. But I drove us away.
He looked at me, then my side.
King: Let me drive. Hurry so I can clean your wound.
I let him in the drivers seat and we drive off. As we drove I took the chance to really look at Steelwater. And I want pleased. Everywhere you turned there were drug dealers, prostitutes, or some type of gang members. I was disgusted. We finally got to Kings penthouse and went inside.
*****************************
After we cleaned up and changed I sat with King. We had to talk.
Me: King can I talk to you?
King: Sure.
We sat in his couch. I looked him deep in the eye and he tensed.
Me: Who were those people who tried to kill us, and why?
He sighed.
King: Ok. It's about time you found out anyway. You know my company ' Kingdom Come Records'.
I nodded.
King:Well that's just one branch of my whole gang operation. Im also the leader of a gang called the 'Vice Kings'. And the gang who tried to kill us were members of the '3rd Street Saints'.
Me:Ok. So this kinda thing happens all the time?
King:Sorta. But I'll make sure your always safe.
I smiled at him. Then his phone rang.
King: King. Uhuh. Ok. WHAT! Are you serious? Ok. Meeting in 30 minutes. Understood?
He hung up. And he looked pissed.
Me:What's wrong?
He looked at me. But calm.
King:Nothing. But I have to go to a meeting.
He got up to leave.
King:You can come.
I looked at him.
Me:Really?
He smiled.
King:Come On.
*****************************
We walked into the room and there were these two guys. King sat in the head chair and put me on his lap. The guys looked at me.
Guy 1: Who the fuck is this?
Guy 2:Warren stop. Don't disrespect a lady.
Guy 1: Well who the fuck is she?
King: She's my god-daughter and you will treat her with respect.
Guy 1: Yes Mr. King.
King:By the way. Gentlemen this is Ariann. Ariann is Anthony or Big Tony. And Warren.
Tony:Hello.
Me:Hi
King:Now lets get to business. How much is this studio incident gonna set us back?
Warren:The incident? I'm sorry. I thought some muthafuckas blew up my shit. I didn't realize it ain't no thang.
King:How. Much.
Warren:Including the loss of revenue from Aisha's death... I'd say we're talkin' millions.
King:Okay. We got a few contractors that owe us, convince them to hook us up. That takes care of building.
Warren:What about the Aisha thing?
They are all thinking. But I had an idea.
Me: Why don't you make a memorial box set of her most popular songs?
King agreed.
King:Good Idea. That should recoup some of our losses. How's Tanya's side of things?
Anthony:Grip is short, Mr. King.
King:I'm not happy, Anthony. You said she could handle it.
Anthony:It's not her fault Mr. King, the Saints have been fuckin' with her.
Warren:That's what I'm talkin' about! Are you gonna let these bitches disrespect us?
King:Everybody, calm the fuck down. We ain't gonna start a war every time some muthafuckas act hard.
Then a lady who I'm guessing is Tanya walked in.
Tanya:We gotta talk about the Saints.
Warren:Thank you.
She sat on Anthony's lap.
Tanya:Hey, baby... They've taken Prawn Court.
King:How did this happen?
Warren: How the fuck you think it happened? Look, we need to get together here and just...
King:What we need is for you to shut the fuck up, you feel me?
Warren:Yeah...
King:What?
Warren:Yes, Mr. King.
King: I'll have Monroe put some pressure on the Saints. While they're distracted, it should be easy to take back what's ours. Everything else is business as usual, understood?
Them:Yes. Mr. King.
King:Good.
Then Tanya looked at me.
Tanya:Who's this?
King:This is Ariann. My god-daughter.
Tanya:Oh.Hey sweetie. Nice to meet you.
Me:Hi.
Tanya:Come on baby. Lets go. And don't worry Mr. King. I'll get back Prawn Court.
King: You better. Until then this meeting is over.
