River.

Chapter 165: Black Out.

Legend's P.O.V.

"Even if I knew where they were I wouldn't tell you." I stated, down on my knees as I began to feel weak after yet another punch to the face by Mark.

"Oh come on Legend, you're making this harder on yourself. I really don't enjoy hitting you."

I stared at him but gave him no reply.

"Well then, I guess we'll just have to continue on with our little walk." He said as one of his men grabbed my shoulder, pulled me up to my feet, then pushed me to get me to start walking.

"What's it gonna take to get you to tell me what I wanna know? Hm?? Bribery?"

"You really think I'd give my brother up for money?"

"It was worth a shot I guess. Tell me what's it gonna take."

"You might as well just put a bullet through my head."

"Oh no no no. Do you think I'm some kind of monster? I only kill people that deserve it."

"Is that why one of your men slit Cassidy's brother's throat?"

"Actually that whole thing was a mistake. My guy took out the wrong brother. It was a bit sad honestly. Alexander seemed like a really nice guy. I hate that he had to suffer. But his death was surely avenged when your brother killed my guy."

"I doubt your guy suffered enough."

"Oh he did. Trust me. River could've just shot him. But he didn't. Instead he beat him to death with his bare fists to the point where he was almost unrecognizable."

"Really wishing that was you instead." I remarked.

He chuckled but before he could say anything I heard a voice call out.

"Hey! Uncle Legend!"

Oh no.

"Rome, go back." I said as Rome approached us along the side walk.

"What? No way. Do you know how hard it was for me to sneak away from Grayson and the girls and walk ALL the way over here?" He asked, getting closer and closer.

"Wow... The last time I saw that kid he was as tall as my knee cap." Mark retorted with a smile.

"Rome just go!" I pleaded.

"Why are you acting weird?" At this point he was no less than 15 feet away from us. "And who are these guys?"

He stopped in his tracks when he got a clear look at me.

"Why do you have bruises on your face? And- a busted lip?"

"Get him." Mark said to his henchman.

The guy quickly grabbed Rome and threw him to the ground so that he was on his knees then the henchman did the same to me.

"Dude what the hell?!" Rome yelled as he looked at me in confusion. "What's going on?"

"Let me introduce myself first." Mark began. "My name is Mark. I'm a friend of your dad. I've known him since he was just a kid."

"And why do I care?" Asked Rome.

"Because I'm looking for him. And Max. Any idea where they are?"

"Yea."

"Oh great how about you tell me and I'll let you and your uncle go?"

"Why do you want them?" He asked.

"Just to talk. That's all."

"Bullshit why do you really want them?"

"Why does it matter to you?"
