TOY SOLDIERS

Dru

I woke up in a bed I was unfamiliar with and looked around the room. I was all bandaged up with a cast wrapped around my arm. Climbing out the bed I walked out the room i was and down the hall. It didn't take me long to recognize who's house I was in especially since I had came here numberous of times with Jerry before he was murdered. I walked around the corner and peeked my head in his office to see Mason sitting at desk in his office doing some paperwork.
Mason, who had been me and the crew's personal doctor for years, he also knew and worked with my dad years ago. Mason was a older white man married with two children.

He looked up at me and smiled "Hello sleepy head".
"Hey Mason" I said walking in his office sitting down on his desk. "How long have I been out"? I asked.
"Two days" he said still doing his paperwork.
I nodded " Anything from the others"? I asked talking about the crew. He shook his head no and I started to worry.
"Do you think everyone made it safely"? He asked.
I shrugged my shoulders in a deep stare "I don't know... I hope so" I said as tears formed my eyes.
"Drake didn't make it" I added wiping my tears.
He sat there with a opened mouth for a second before he turned away "You know for sure"?
I nodded "Yeah, I was with him" I said sadly as I wiped more tears that had fell.
Mason leaned up and squeezed my hand as we locked eyes... "Don't allow this to stop you... And im sorry about Drake I really am but make him and ya father proud by completing ya mission. Don't stop until it's done you have the power to and your still here for a reason let this be ya reason" he said with seriousness in his voice.

For years Mason had been my mentor and my doctor. He helped me with most things that I needed to know in the fields that Jerry wasn't familiar with. I spent a couple more hours chatting with Mason then pulled myself together to leave. Once Mason cleaned up my wound and put fresh bandages I was good to go.

"Remember if you need me you know where to find me" Mason said.
"Thanks for everything" i said softly.
I gave him a hug and told him I would keep in touch then I left. I had one more destination to go to before i went to find out about the crew's whereabouts. 

I walked up to the apartment door and noticed he was still vacated. Unlocking the door, I looked around to make sure I wasn't being watched before I went inside. After looking around the empty place, I made my way to the back of the apartment and into the last bedroom that set off it it'self and began searching until i found the large box that belonged to the other key. I opened it to find a letter and a small dark blue duffle bag inside, i took the note out and opened it.

                                         Dear my baby girl Dru,

                                If your reading this its either two things happened here, either you needed this bad and i gave it to you or i'm dead. Dru I love you so much you were my first and only born and your mother and I did a good job with bring up such a special but beautiful smart daughter. I will always love you baby you mean the most to me,i left you some money to take care of yourself and please remember everything daddy taught you don't get caught up in this street life, be smart and be somebody better. i love you baby girl, my time is up... take care 

                                                                                           love your father Leon

I stood there with tear pouring down my face as i finished up the letter my father wrote me. It was like it was a good bye letter as if he knew someone was after him. Once i got myself together i opened the bag and damn sure like he said he left bands and bands filled with money inside. Once i got to the car i realized it wasn't just thousands, I did my share of counting money and as heavy as this bag was I knew had to be millions of dollars in this bag that he left me. I couldn't do nothing, but break down and cry some more. I didn't know whether i should be happy or sad either way I had to get the fuck away from here and make sure everyone made it to the safe house safe. I didn't want Snake or Briana to try to contact me on my cell so I tossed it, brought another and made my way to the safe house

      *** Five hours later:

I pulled up at the safe house and took a deep breath. I started to cry again when I noticed nobody's car was here, but my mother's. I put my head down on the steering wheel, God they must didn't make it and its all my fault why didn't I have just listened to Jerry.
My thoughts were interrupted to knocking on my car window I looked up and was staring at my mom who had tears in her eyes. I hopped out my truck and my mother pulled me into a tight hug as we cried together.
After our little reunite moment we went into the house where my daughter was sitting in the living room watching TV with her back towards me.

I walked up and sat down next to her she was so glued to the TV she didn't notice me "Hey Millian" I said. She looked and realized it was me and jumped in my arms. I couldn't help it I cried so more my mother stood back and watched with peaceful tears in her eyes.
I picked Millian up and held her tight I missed her so much.
"Where's everyone else"? mom asked.
I glanced at her and shrugged my shoulders "Drake's dead" I whispered and my mother began to cry harder.
"I'm sorry I didn't listen to you mama" I whispered again. She nodded her head at me with a closed mouth smile.
Me and Millian was sitting on the floor until I heard my mother clear her throat behind me. I looked back at her and I seen Zy standing there next to her.
My eyes became wet all over again I couldn't believe Zy was here.
"He's been here for days waiting for you. He was gonna come to find y'all but I told him to stay with us and wait to see if y'all would show" mom said.
I stood up with still a shocked expression at the fact that Zy was standing here in front of me, I missed him a lot too. My mother waved Millian to her and they walked out giving me and Zy some space.
"I'm glad your okay" he said. I ran and jumped up into his arms he didn't know how happy I was to see him.
"So much has happened... Snake and Briana set us up and shot Drake" I cried still in his arms.
He pulled me away and stared me in my face with a worried expression "Is Drake okay"? He asked rubbing my back.
I shook my head no "He's dead... I was with him when he died" I said still crying.
That shit hurt Zy to, he fucked with Drake heavy shit would never be the same without him. "What about Tate and Ashya"? He asked.
"I don't know... I haven't heard from them. Nobody has" I said.
"Everything gonna be okay I promise" he said.

He gently lifted my chin and We locked eyes he kissed my lips and at that moment I felt like everything was gonna be okay.
