Vengeance

[3]

Michael

Stressed was an understatement to how I was feeling at the moment. It's been days since I had my crew searching for Kirsten and to my misfortune, there were no leads. He didn't leave any trace of him. Winston hasn't been found either. I'm more afraid that he skipped states with her.

How could I have been so stupid to leave Kirsten alone with Winston. I should of known something was up with him. He was too much. When he started working for me he asked too many questions about our business. I thought it was only right he knew since he was apart of this and was like my right hand but boy was I wrong.

My father haven't been much help lately. He was starting to hate Kirsten the more I stressed over finding her. He felt she got in the way of us taken over the Scorpions but his thoughts are only false. Kirsten hasn't caused any harm. If anything, I caused harm to her. I put her in the line of Fire by just being with her.

"Everything is clear." One of the men that worked for me said as he came out of the bar. This was the Scorpion's usual spot and surprisingly no one turned up tonight. I guess Brown's coward ass knew I'd be searching for him and his people here and probably warned them. If he wanted me dead so bad then he'd face me like a real man.

"Of course it is." I said through my clenched teeth. I motioned for them to get in the car so we could go but was stopped by a deep voice behind us.

"Jackson! What you doing on this part of town?" I turned to see one of Brown's henchmen walking up. I held my hand over my gun and he put his hands up in defense. "No need for that, I'm unarmed."

"Where the fuck is Brown." I said angrily.

"It wouldn't be fun if I told you straightforwardly now would it?" He said. I walked up to him and swiftly had him on the ground, a knife to his neck in one move. "Come on Jackson!"

"Come on my ass, tell me where that coward is or I'll have your head fed to my dogs." He threatened and he only chuckled.

"I don't think you'd want to know where she is or what Brown is doing to her." He says. I almost plunged this knife into his neck but I needed all the answers I could get.

"I'll give you one more change to tell me." I said as calmly as I could. I was becoming impatient as he only laughed in my face.

"I don't know the exact location." He said and I wasn't buying nothing he just said. His little posse that was behind him didn't even try to help when I cocked my hand back and punched him in the nose. He cried in agony and held his nose, rocking himself trying to ease the pain but it wasn't happening because I'm sure I broke it.

"Tell me what you know or all three of you dying." I said as I stood up and pulled out my gun. The other two pulled of their guns as well as my own crew was. It was six against three and they knew we had the upper hand.

"I-I don't know much Alright. I just knew their plans." The guy said as he still laid on the ground in pain.

"What were they?" I asked but when I didn't get a answer I Short him in the leg. He screamed in agony and his crew ran away like cowards. I nodded for my men to go after them and kill them.

"Brown planned to kill the girl. At the lighthouse." He explained as he held his bleeding leg.

"Lighthouse? There is no lighthouse around here."

"That's because it isn't here, it's in another state."

Another fucking state? You mean Brown skipped town and left his whole gang vulnerable? I'm not buying nothing this man is telling me. Finally having enough of his cries, I left him there on the ground. I decided to spare his life just so he could be alive to tell the rest of his gang that I'm nobody to fuck with.

I circled around the building in my car and found the rest of my crew and brought them back to my father's house. My father asked a million questions as I entered the house but I ignored every one as I went inside his office.

"Michael! Boy you better answer me!" My father yelled as he pointed his finger at me. "What happened?"

"Kirsten isn't even here. She's in another state." I told him and he sighed.

"I think we should just give up looking for her and go back to taking down the Scorpion gang." He said and I became angry.

"I told you I'm not giving up on her! I don't care if it takes months for me to find her, I'll do it!" I told him then pushed passed out of his office. I was no longer interested in holding a conversation with anyone if it had nothing to do with finding Kirsten.

I no longer wanted to stay in that house with him so I decided to take a ride for awhile. I got in my car and sped off before my dad could catch up and stop me. I drove around town until I came up by the club Kirsten used to work. I thought about interrogating Denise again but went against it. If she knew what's good for her, she wouldn't lie to me.

Just then, Denise came waltzing out the club with a man on her arm. The two got in a car and I decided to follow closing behind. I followed behind the car until they came up to a run down place. I parked further away from them and watched as they parked and got out. Denise stumbled around and the man helped her walk as they came up to the house. I grabbed my gun and got out the car as I slowly followed.

Once the two disappeared into the house, I went around to see if I could find a window to look into. No my misfortune, all the windows were busted and boarded up. I sighed then looked around again and seen one window wasn't boarded up all the way. I peeped inside and seen both men and women walking around, smoking and drinking. I then knew this was a secret hideout for the scorpion gang after seeing their clothing. My eyes filled with rage when I seen the main motherfucker I've been looking for.
