I Now Realize

Chapter 4: The Plan... (Part 2 out of 3)

Tony's POV

For the whole week, my sister Violet and I went over the plan. Editing what we will do. Thankfully, today we have a mission that deals with a group of a few gangs. I don't know them, but I have heard of them. They are called 'The union". I have heard that they are good with machetes, make blackmail deals, and have a drug business. I just hope I'm still in one piece and not sliced and diced into sushi. If that happens...I hope I taste good as meat. But at the same time, I'm somewhat glad that I'm going to visit Alue. Luckily, a few people of The Union gang know Alue. But first thing is first, we have to stick to the plan. My sister and I are now at a few abandoned buildings, hopefully we can make a deal without one of them blackmailing us...
"Come on, brother." My sister grabbed my hand and lead me to The Union gang. We heard the rap music blasting through the speakers. We had to cover our ears as we made our way in. Members of the gang either glared or glanced at us. Until one yelled, "Yo! Cut the music!" I swear, that guy didn't need a megaphone! His voice was similar to the volume of the music. A girl lowered the volumed and turned off the stereo. "Fresh meat. Who are they?" A tall man pulled out his swiss army knife and smirked at us. "We came for help." Violet said, making the man chuckled. "Help? Look for somewhere else, little lady, we have corruptive business to do. Besides, you look like you're too innocent to be around here. I don't wanna harm you guys." Then my sister and I saw another guy walk and stand next to the tall man. He raised his arms at everyone who had their weapons pointing at us. "It's cool, people! I know these guys. I will handle them. Now, just drop yo' weapons and have your own fun!" We looked at the guy who appeared to be seventeen years old. He had a blue cap on, silver eyes, dark skin, wore a sleeveless jacket and shirt, and dark green jeans. He walked towards us and shook our hands politely. He whispered to us. "You guys can call me Skull." We both nodded and introduced ourselves. He then asked, "What made yo' minds to come in this place? You two should get out of here!" He placed his arms at his hips. "Before you kick us out," my sister said,
"Just one question, do you or any other person know Alue?" The second my sister said 'Alue', Skull snapped his head in her direction in surprise. "Yes. You know her too?" We both nodded. I answered, "She and us have been friends since childhood." He nodded and signaled us to follow him through the alleyways. He made us stop in front of a rusty door and unlocked it, letting us in. He gestured for us to sit on the velvet couches. "Ok. What do you guys need?" I spoke first. "To help Alue." When Skull asked why, my sister and I explained and gave him the copies as proof. He widened his eyes, not knowing what to say. My sister then spoke. "But Tony and I have made a plan." Skull eyed at us in a suspicious way. "What plan...?" My sister cleared her throat. "That my brother is kidnapped and stays with Alue for a month while I stay at the base. Then I sneak out of the base, go with Alue and form another plan to denounce what Astoroth had done." Skull nodded, but seemed unsure to agree to help us. "Astoroth..." He scoffed with disgust at the name. "You do realize you're creating a suicide plan?" My sister and I nod. "Alright," Skull rubbed his neck. "I will ask some other people who know Alue and see if they can help. You're lucky that half of us know and respect her." He smiled. Then I thought of an idea. "What of you and your comrades acted like you took me prisoner?" He seemed to analyze my eyes. "Seems risky, but a good idea. Alright, Violet, give me your jacket." Skull pointed at my sister, motioning to come to his side. As my sister gave him her jacket, He pulled a knife out and teared the fabric, making it look beat up. He then gently pulled my sister a few inches closer to him and he teared small pieces of fabric on her shirt and pants, making her look like she was jumped by a gang. Skull then messed up her hair and paused, examining as if something was missing. "I'll be back." Skull opened the door and left. My sister and I only communicated with looks for a while until Skull came back with...make up? "It's for your sister to look like she got beat up, it's waterproof." Violet gasped. "Oh, it's that type of make up that actors use." He nodded and then started applying the make up to Violet's face, making her look like she was beat up pretty badly.
After a while, he gently grabbed me and opened the door. "Do any of you have a communicator device?" i pulled one out of my left pocket and handed it to him. "Thank, Tony. Ok, I will spread the news and I will let your sister know how things are going, ok?" I nodded. "Thanks for helping us out. I don't know how we can repay you." He sways his hand in my face. "No need to. Violet? I suggest you go before Astoroth suspects anything." My sister nodded. "Right. See you guys next time." She opened the door and ran as I cross my fingers, hoping Astoroth wouldn't suspect anything...
