In The Name Of Trouble

Chapter 13

"You drive this fast and you're gonna get us killed."

"We have to be back as soon as possible. I parked my bike a few feet far from my house. I hope no one's there.

We went to the bathroom and removed the clog of my bath tub. I never used it, its just an entrance.
I put my hand on the specific place in the tub. It scanned my fingerprints and out came a voice confirmation mike.

"Code word's snake." I said the code . The bathtub split into two revealing a glass door on the floor.

There was a tiny keyhole. I wear the key around my neck the whole time. It looks like a golden pendant. I inserted the key and stood back. The door opened leading to a flight of stairs.

We went down and it was pitch black. I ran my hand through the wall and found the light switch.

The whole place lit up. I spent half my life here. It was my sanctuary. When I was bored, I would come down here and make different weapons and spend hours over here.

"My laptop!!!!" She went to collect her child, no, her heart.

"What are you doing?"

"Making masks. We have to get out of here undetected. And then we'll make those smuggling cases you use. And then I'll make 4 cell phones which can't be traced by anyone."

"You can do that?"

"You still have no clue what I can do Cash." She's right, I don't.

"We have to get back. We still have 1 and half hour."

"More than enough. Make yourself useful. Pack those concealed guns and daggers."

"Will do." I took some of the knives which were disguised as pens, tasers disguised as flashlights, guns disguised as toys and instruments. Yep, I made these babies.

"The masks are getting ready. Now get me those old suitcases you have." She started cutting slits and slots and did her thing.

"Get some of your old phones here, you own thousands. Get me any four good ones."

I went back to my room and took four of the most recent smartphones I dumped.

I came back to see that she was already done with 3 cases and was working on the fourth one.

"Connect those phones to that panel over there next to my laptop." We all had our own corners. We split the room into four and that was our workplace. Clint's place was full of cameras of various sizes and costumes. Lori had her computer and wires from here to there. I had weapons and Eira had her boxing gloves and dummies and would eventually make some thing which made fighting easier.

"Do we have to split?"

"Do we have any other choice Lori? If I was more careful at that cafe, things would go smooth, but.... I messed shit up."

"Actually it was our fault, making you wear heels. I must admit that was funny though." She laughed.

"Yes, it hilarious for you guys." I laughed too "But if I didn't wear those I still think I would've fallen."

"We're done. Let's go." She took the masks from the machine and put it in her bag. "Bye Pit, I love you."

"Let's get back." I just realized something, she made four cases, she thinks I'm leaving too.

"What are you thinking about? Let's move."

"Coming"

We repacked Eira's bag into the one Lori made and put the jewels in the hidden compartments. We realized that Clint had already packed too.

"Aw man. We have to repack this guy's stuff too." Lori groaned

"Hey it was your fault not telling us about the cases."

Just as we were packing, I found something in his bag, a whole box of it.

"Yo Clit." I whistled, he turned and his eyes widened when he saw the box in my hand "Wanna explain?"

"Its for safety Cash. Safety first." He looked down "Ya, can you just put those back in the case."

"You're 17!!! Its still illegal!!!"

"Just please put it back in, you're gonna get the others attention."

"And XXL? How big a......"

"You're 15 sweetie, act 15."

"Just cause I'm 15 don't mean I'm a naive nuthead. And you're 17,act 17,this is illegal."

"What do you want?"

"Good question. I want one sapphire from your share."

"What!! C'mon, be more reasonable."

"Fine I want Swiss chocolates."

He ran out of the house "Right away."

I packed it back in the luggage, laughing.

"I finished packing mine" Lori said

"You missed all the fun." I said

"Ready for my flight?" Eira came back

"Yeah" Lori said with a sigh.

"Hey Cash I'm back with the chocolates."

"That was quick"

"There's a cold store right round the corner."

"Chocolates? What for?"

"Just a treat for all of us before we leave." Clint said smiling and then looked at me.

"Cool, let's eat."
.........

"And this phone is what you'll call us from ok? And here's your mask, put it on now." We were prepping her up in the car. I adjusted the mask until it perfectly fit her face. She got off and we followed her till the security checkup. She kept waving at us till she went in. And she left.

"Ok now you both tomorrow." They nodded.

"I already miss her."

"Me too"

"Me three."

"Let's go back home. Your home Clint."

And we drove off.
