War Of Gangsters

Chapter Two ~ The Reason [EDITED]

Maxine's P.O.V

"BOOM!" napailing ako sa isinigaw ni Amanah. Kahit kailan talaga, ang ingay nito. 

Natapos lang naman namin ang. . . well, parang misyon sa pagpatay ng grupong Spades. Madali lang naman silang patayin dahil mahina ang grupong yun at wala pa sa ranking sa underground. Kaya hindi na ako nagtaka na madali lang silang patayin at tsaka, yabang lang talaga ang nasa mga gung-gung na yun. Pinapanood namin ang pagtuloy-tuloy na sabog at ang hinay-hinay na paglukob ng sunog sa paligid ng building. 

"Okay, time to leave. I heard the police's sirens." sabi ni Cassandra habang tinatanggal ang maskara niya. 

Lahat kasi kami ay nagsusuot ng maskara, well , lahat naman ng gang nagsusuot ng ganun. Para maitago ang identity at tsaka kaya kami may code name, para hindi malaman ang aming totoong pagkatao. 

"The mission isn't that hard, though. Even the leader is like a piece of sh*t." Michaela said while getting her helmet before putting it in her head, the others nodded in agreement. I put on my helmet and ride on my motorcycle. 

"Hoy, Maxine! Ano yan? Excited lang umuwi?" sarcastic na tanong ni Amanah na ngayon ay sinusuot na rin ang helmet niya. Tinignan ko ang lahat. Nakasuot na lahat ng helmet at nakasakay na rin sa kanyang-kanyang motorsiklo. Napa-poker face ako.

"Stupid! Everyone's ready except for you! Psh, use your mind idiot!" I said before riding away from that place. I don't know but my head boils when I see Amanah. Not that I hate her, she's just really stupid and sometimes slow.

After a while. I notice in the side mirror of my motorcycle that Cassandra is catching up with me. Geez, she's fast. And before I could blink, she already pass me. Napailing na lang ako lalo na at sumunod si Michaela at Binj. Mas binilisan ko na ang takbo ng motorsiklo para humabol sa kanila. 

Maya-maya pa ay dumating na kami sa Death Road. Ito ang daan sa hideout namin. Lumiko muna kami sa kaliwa at pumasok sa isang kweba. Ang kwebang ito ang daan sa hideout namin. Ang hideout namin ay nasa ilalim ng lupa. Ewan kung sino ang naka-isip nito but probably Cassandra since she's our leader. 

Pi-nark na namin ang mga ginamit naming mga motor sa parking lot. Malaki ang parking lot namin. Nasa baba rin ito ng lupa. Kompleto kami sa uri ng kotse, motorsiklo, van, at kung ano-ano pang transportasyon. Kung ang hideout ng ibang gang groups ay masukal na lugar at kung minsan ay abandonadong gusali, saamin hindi. Kung titignan sa loob, para itong mansiyon. Lalo na at kompleto kami sa mga furniture, gadgets, at iba pang gamit na makikita sa ordinaryong bahay. 

Umupo ako sa sala at kinuha ang phone ko. Walang magawa eh.  In-open ko ang game na candy crush. Wala lang, pampalipas oras. 

"I'm gonna cook for our dinner." Cassandra said while removing her boots and replace it with slippers.

"I'm gonna help you!" Michaela said before following Cassandra. Well, I don't care as long as I can eat and I get full.

~TIME PASSED

"Everyone! Dinner's ready!" I heard Michaela shouted. I stood up but before I can run to the kitchen. The bell rang. 

Everyone froze. Including me. It's been eons since the last time that bell rung. What do they want now?! 

"Aish! What's their problem?" Amanah exclaimed when she arrived. We gather at the front of the television. Cassandra tap something at the right side of the T.V and there it is. Cassandra's mom's face show up. Our parents are the leaders at the headquarters. We are used for being their puppet but when we turned 15, we make our own name in underground. We don't hate them but we are mad at them for using us for there companies and business.

"Good Evening, Girls!" she greeted but we just stayed quiet except for our leader.

"What the hell do you want now?" Cassandra asked in an irritated tone. Her face shows everything she's feeling right now.

"Language lady. Anyway, I want you to do something." she said but this time her smile is gone and become more serious. I focused my attention to her.

"What is it?" Cassandra asked but still in an irritated tone.

"I need you to get the files that was stolen by the other group." 

"Is this file important?" Amanah asked. 

"They wouldn't ask for our help, if it's not important. Stupid!" I said to her but she just roll her eyes.

"Just do it yourself." Michaela said. "You have tons of agents there. Make them work!" Michaela continued. 

"We already did. But, none of them returned. And we found out that they were dead. So, I have no choice but to call the five of you. That files is so important." Cassandra's Mom said.

"What's so important in those files? How did they get that from the headquarters?" Binj asked. 

"The file's contents is a secret. And for the second question, I think there was an inside job." she said that make me think. So... They were a traitor from the headquarters? 

"Fine, were gonna help you. But, consider it the last time. Don't call us nor see us." Cassandra said that didn't make us shock.

Cassandra don't like her family because she said that her family is so greedy and always have no time to her. She grows alone. While her family is making money, she trains herself to be strong and numb and when her family knows that she will help their company by her skills, they get her and don't care about her feelings. She already touch a gun in the age of 7. So, I feel her madness in her parents.

"C-Cassandra. . ." Cassandra's Mom uttered with a teary eyes.

"Psh! Stop your acting and tell us the plan." Cassandra said, not in an irritated or mad tone but in a cold tone. 

Cassandra's Mom tend to get back at her poise. 

"The plan is simple. You will transfer to the academy where the 5X is studying, pretend to be a nerds, get to their hideout, get the files , kill the 5X and done."

"5X? The 2nd ranked group in the underworld?" I asked. How the hell they were the one who stole those files?

"Yes." 

"We're gonna get the files but not with your plan. Pretend to be a nerd? Tss. Bullsh*t. But were gonna transfer to their school to know their nature!" Cassandra said before ending the call.

For awhile, everyone got quiet. Binj broke the silence.

"Why did you accept their request?" she asked. I wanted to ask that question as well.

"Cause I know they're lying." Cassandra answered that make us shock.

"W-What do you mean?" Michaela asked who first recovered to the shock.

"Basta. Anyway, Binj, find out the school where the 5X is studying and transfer us into that school. But before that, let's eat." Cassandra said and headed in the kitchen.

The four of us sighed.

Geez, what was she talking about? 

I looked at the three people who look worried as well.

Again, we all sighed and just went to the kitchen.

I wonder which school will be transfered to.  .  .
