TOY SOLDIERS

In Due Time

       As Tia got closer to the room Millian was in, the soft sounds of sobbing was heard outside the door. This was physically and mentally breaking her down that she had to do this, let alone even have the poor child in such a cruel situation. She tried to keep a close watch on Millian without letting anyone else step foot through that door, she knew she would never be able to forgive herself if something happened to the poor child. And fucking with Dru and the crew she knew she might as well dig a deep hole for herself in the ground if shit when sour.
Swallowing her pride and pushing her thoughts to the side, she opened the door and entered the small room that Millian was in. In the corner laid on the small twin mattress was Millian with a frightened look on her face. She knew who Tia was and since she had been in the picture she had grown to get use to her, but she knew something wasn't right. Why would she be away from her Nana and mother and with Tia. Tia walked over closer to Millian and sat down on the edge of the bed causing Millie to sit up.
"Where's my mommy"?
Taking a deep breath Tia replied "She'll be coming to get you really soon I promise" she whispered hoping that would make her more comfortable. 
"Is that man gonna hurt me"? Millian asked referring to one of Wise's bodyguards that kept appearing in the room every fifteen minutes. It was something about the way he stared at little Millian that made her nervous, it was almost as if he was lusting over her or something and even though she was at a young tender age she was far from dumb.
Tia glanced back at the door then back at Millian "No baby he won't touch you" She said with promising and sincere eyes. "Are you hungry"? Millian nodded her head and Tia left the room only to Come back with two cheese burgers, a small fry and two juice boxes. She sat there with Millian watching her smash the food as if she hasn't ate in days.
Just as she was about to tell her she would be back, the door opened and in walked the same dude that Millian feared. The look on her face told Tia that she was fearing for her life and to Tia's understanding he was staring all too hard at the poor girl. "I'll be back, and I'm not to far away I promise" Tia whispered. Getting up she strutted towards the door, but not before pulling the dude out behind her.
Once the door was closed and the ghost was clear, Tia instantly started chewing his ass alive. "What the fuck are you doing"? She asked with a mean mug on her face.  He frowned his face up "Fuck you talking bout"?  "Why are you scaring the girl??? Your job is to stay out here not in there".  He chuckled before giving her a crazy insane look "Listen I do what I want".
"No you don't, your on my watch, my time and this is controlled by me not you so keep ya ass out of that room ya hear" she said with her fingers in his face. Before he got to say another word she warned him once again but this time more threatening "Keep away from her or I will kill you" was her last words before she rolled her eyes and stormed away from him.
She dared him to go against her words, she would for sure kill him and wouldn't think twice. The promise that she made to Dru that she would keep her safe was all she thought about. Once she was back upstairs on the third floor and away from the cameras and the only third guards that Wise left on duty she reached for her cell in her pocket and texted Dru.

     The four hours that the crew had been waiting to hear back from Tia felt more like four days. Dru and the crew all sat around in the living room in silence. All Dru could think about was what she could have did different and how she could bring her baby girl back home. Sitting slumped down on her sofa with her hand over her head and her eyes closed, her mind on three hundred. Zy walked over and squatted down in front of her. He grabbed her free hand and caressed it softly causing her to move her hand from her face and open her eyes.
"You okay babe"? He asked concerned, still holding on to her hand tightly.
All she could do was nodded her head even though she wasn't okay. "I just want Millie home. I was supposed to protect her, let no harm come to her and I feel like I let my baby down when she trusted me to -" before she could finish her sentence tears and sobs took over her and she was unable to finish her statement. Reaching up and pulling her in his arms Zy comforted her in his arms as she cried for like the twenty time today. Seeing her so emotional made everyone become teary eyed also, especially her mother. In her mind this was all her fault no matter how she tried to look at the situation.
"We gonna get her home safe Dru I promise" Drake said as he put his hand on her knee. She looked in Drake's eyes and knew her cousin meant business and nothing, but business. Still in her mind she wondered how she wasn't there to Protect her seed. Was she really okay?? Was she alive?? Did they feed her, was she cold or in pain?? So many thoughts ran through her mind that she couldn't concentrate.
Minutes later the buzz of her cell phone going off on the glass table in front of her caught everyone's attention. Jumping up and grabbing the phone, she read the message from Tia and instantly feeling hope in her heart. Tia had kept her promise and text her the address to Wise's hide out and told her to get there asap. It was time to handle this once and for all and get rid of Wise for good.

     As Tia hit the bottom floor where Millian was to her surprise the dude had went against what she told to do. He was coming out the room as she hit the bottom step and just stared at her with a testing expression on his face. Without saying a word to him she whipped her gun out and shot him directly in his head and watched his lifeless body hit the ground. Peeping her head inside the room to check on Millian which she was safe and asleep. The last thing she was worried about was the guards because before she came downstairs she had took them all out one by one execution style. It didn't take long for Dru and the crew to appear in the back yard as Tia instructed them to do.
" His ass is a bum" Wise said Laughing his ass off as he sat back in his chair in his living room smoking a cigar and watching the basketball game. This was his peace and quiet time. He had sent all his guards on break, it was just him, his self alone, but little did he know his guards were sleep for the rest of their lives. Usually this would be the time him and Snake would be together son and father time, but since Snake's death he had trying to move on without mopping around. The fact that his only son, His only child was gone and never coming back would haunt him for the rest of his life. But all those thoughts were suddenly interrupted when the clicking sound of a gun click behind his head.
