Max POV

Sean and I make our way out of the room and head to the lounge room where the others are. On our way there I continue to tell my plan to Sean. "If you have any gangs that would be happy to be a decoy then this plan would be able to work perfectly." Once we enter the room the rest of the gang look up and is about to greet us when they notice the serious aura around us and the look of planning and determination on our faces.

We all gather at the kitchen table ready to talk about the plan. "My father will come with most if not all of his gang, they will be mostly used as lookouts to make sure that he isn't running into a trap. Once the decoy is out of sight he will make his move and come inside. He will be looking for me." Some of them look uneasy when I mention my father will be looking for me but I ignore it.

"He will not make his entrance stealthy, he will knock the front door down and barge in like he owns the place. I will get my mother to hide so she doesn't have to face my father, if it goes well we will fight..." I trail off and look down at the table, "but if it doesn't?" Benjamin asks nervously. I look up seriously "he will pull a gun out and shoot me on the spot. And he won't miss." Everyone goes quiet.

"I know who we should ask to be the decoy," Sean speaks up after being silent. "Who?" I ask. "Well you haven't met them yet, but their gang is called Skull. We often rely on each other and are quite close." "I'll call them then," Xavier stands up and wanders off with his phone in his hand. "Now we have that sorted, we need to plan out where we will hide and how we will kill Max's father."

I chuckle lifelessly, "he isn't an easy man to kill. Trust me, I've tried many times." "You may have tried many times Max but now you have us. We will kill him don't worry." Steve speaks up, reassurance in his voice. "Yeah he's got to deal with us now, you're not on your own anymore." Caleb speaks up, making my eyes tear up but I push them away. Now is not the time to cry. "You guys have helped me so much, I-I don't know how to thank you." I stutter out, they all smile softly.

"You don't have to thank us, it's what we do for family." Levi responds, "family," I mutter to myself. "Now let's wait for Skull to get here and let's kill your father!" Kris hollers. Everyone cheers in response. I just look at them still not getting over that they called me family.
