Jerome drives closer to the buildings and stops for a moment. "Why are we stopping?"Arnold asks. Jerome looks through the rearview mirror. "I was thinking about how we would be able to get them in the back without a scratch on us. " I rose my hand and say, "I know how. I'll set l seduce them and when they get to the back of the SUV you guys can tie them up and throw them in the back." Jerome was about to say something but Greenwood cut him off. "Seduce them? You would have to be at least a little pretty for that. I mean, I know they're fishermen but even they have standards. "
I laugh a little at the petty insult. "Says the cannibal who ate any woman he could grab. "And I could eat one more, if she doesn't keep quiet. " "Well get used to it. I'm going to continue talking until I feel the need to be silent. "
Throughout our little spat, Jerome had continue to drive until we made out to the second building. We sat in front of the building for a moment. "Alright Erin, don't fuck it up. " Greenwood spat. I roll my eyes and say nothing in return. I lay my hand over the handle to open the door. Jerome grabs my wrist to stop me and puts a gun in my free hand. "Take this just in case." I took my hand off the handle and onto his. I put the gun back into his hand and say, "I'll be alright, but thanks for your concern. " I, then, open my car door and hop out of the SUV. As I make my way to the building, Jerome rolls down the window and says something. Being at the distance that I am, it only sounds like muffles. I make my way into building and take a look around. It smells like Fish. Duh. "Can we help you with something, young lady?" I hear a man say behind me. I spin around to see seven men surrounding me in curiosity. "I'm just looking for a bit of fun. " I say. They all smile at me as they watch me take a seat in a chair that I spotted on the way in. I smile at them mischievously. I bend over and start to rub my leg. "Although I did hurt my leg on the way in. I think I might've cut it on something. I left all my aid equipment in my SUV outside. I don't think I can make it out there." I say in seductive tone, moving my hand up my dress showing my thigh. "I can help you. " one man says. "No I can. " another man says. Then all of them started to argue. I stop and stand up slowly and start walking towards them. "Well if you boys want to have some fun, I'll be waiting for you all outside." I walk closer to the door, purposely swinging my hips to get the men's attention. "Oh we're coming, Sweetheart." I open the door and head to the a SUV. I see Jerome and the others are gathered around the door where I just exited. That wasn't exactly my plan, but whatever works, I suppose.
The men came out all together. "Hey sweetheart, I don't think all of us and you can do it in that SUV." I smile and look back to them. "It? Depends on what 'it' is." I smile at them once more. Before they could say anything, the boys knock them out with a punch. They started to load them in the back one by one. "Good job, Erin. " I nod and got back into the SUV. I let my head fall on the window and my eyes start to get heavy. I hear Jerome open his door and hop in. I just look at him with a tired expression and then sit back up. "Didn't sleep well again?" I shrugged my shoulders. "I just got in the car and I just felt really tired. Let's get going though, I want to get this done." Jerome nods his head and starts the car. I roll down the window to see the other guys resting on the ground. "Get in losers, we're not done yet. You can rest when we get this done. Come on. " I tell to them. They groaned, got up and got in the SUV.
Jerome started to drive and great back into the middle of the city. "What building are we going to drop them from?" Aaron asks. Jerome looks at me. "How about to the main press. On their building sounds good. " I nod at his idea. "Hey do me a favor and chain them up, will ya?" I ask Aaron. He nods his head and does so in the back. I start to feel tired once more and feel my eyes wanting to shut. My head starts to fall to my left, towards Jerome. I don't have my seatbelt on, so I fall further towards Jerome. I feel my head land on something firm but soft. But, being too tired, I didn't care. I feel Jerome turn his neck towards me. "You can't rest until we get this done. " I groaned. "Don't use my words against me, assface. " I say groggily. Jerome chuckles and continue driving.
I feel the car slow down and stop. "we're here. Let's go."Jerome says. He nudges me with his shoulder. I sit up and look out the window. I'm in an ally. I open the door and hop out. I walk along the building to the fire escape and wait for the boys to make their way over with the hostages. Aaron had a hold of the first hostage, it looked like he had also blindfolded them when he chained them up. "Alright. All the way up to the roof. " I hear Jerome say a little loud. So I start walking up the escape, struggling with every other step, with Aaron behind me.
As we make it up the roof, I hear a rattling sound coming from behind me. I look behind me, seeing Jerome shaking a paint can. I smile a little to myself. The boys line all the fishermen in a row and unchained the first man. He struggled for a moment. Then Aaron punched him in the stomach. "Any of you even try to attempt to escape, even if you don't make it away, we will go after your family and kill them. Your wives, children, parents, even your closest friends who you hold so dearly. " Jerome said to them. They all stood still and whimpered for a moment. Jerome clapped his hands together and walked over to the edge and sat over it. I walked over to him and sat on it as well. He swung his legs over the edge. I didn't. It made me a little nervous or anxious to do that, so I kept my feet on the roof. "Spray paint the letter 'M' on the first one and bring him over here. " Jerome demanded. Greenwood sprayed the 'M' on the guy and Aaron lifted him up over his head and brought him over to the edge of the building. He then laid the man on the edge and said him towards Jerome and threw him off. As he hit the ground, I could hear a slight crack or crash, even though we were so high up. "Next up is 'A' . We're spelling our little groupie name, boys. Bring him up." Jerome had demanded once more.
After they got 'X' thrown over, Arnold asks, "what should we do with.... The spare?" Jerome looks down at the bodies on the pavement below and then back up. "Oh! I know!" he rotates his body swiftly, to where he is facing the others. The way he positions himself as he hops down, is.... I can't explain. How firm his chest looks. As I stare at his chest more, he moves towards the last standing body. He takes the can of spray in hand and draws an exclamation mark down his body. He then tosses the can behind him and says, "Aaron... Would you kindly?" Aaron walks over to the man, picks him up and chucks him over the edge. The guys look over the edge to look at the bodies. "Ha! Now that's a headline. " Jerome said. He then laughs manically. As I watch all this happen, I feel someone watching us. I turn my head and look up, to see Tabitha watching us and then leave.
I look forward again. They're still bent over looking down. I did find myself thinking about what Jerome just done and become aroused by that realization. Everyone turns around as I stare in to space just looking at Jerome. Jerome stares at me, slightly amused. I look down to his chest, still so firm, moving up and down from his calm breathing. I start walking towards him slowly. As if I was kinda scared to approach him but hesitantly did so with caution. "What is it? Are you afraid of us now?" he asks. I feel the others watching me as well as I walk up to Jerome slowly. As I make it to in front of Jerome, I reach up, wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him. I feel him kiss me back. And then I feel the same thing I felt before, when we got in the car over here, dizzy, tired, lightheaded. I feel my consciencness leave me. My mind goes black. I feel my arms go limp and my legs give out. I start falling down, until I feel another set of arms catch me. And then my mind goes out. I fall asleep. It's hot.
__________I feel myself being put down on a bed. I open my eyes slightly. I'm having a hard time breathing a bit. My sight is fuzzy. I try to focus on the figure beside me. I raise my hand up to the figure. But another hand stopped me from touching the figure. "You need to rest. You have a 105° fever. You can't use much energy. Just focus on sleeping. You did great on the mission. Great job at benefiting Galavan. Now do yourself a favor and rest." I hear him say. It sounded like Jerome. He sounds concerned, which is hard to comprehend because he's a psychopath. "J-Jerome. I'm sorry to be a burden. For causing so much trouble. Please. Humor me a little longer and stay with me. At least until I fall asleep." I ask. I feel his hand touch the bottom of my chin. "Of course." I feel him sit on the bed and lay beside me. He caresses my cheek. I feel my eyes grow heavy once more. "Thank you. " I say in a quiet whisper tone. I soon find myself losing consciousness once again.
