Gerard's POV

As I leave my room and head to the conference room Pete gives me an update to what has happened.

"Some of the men got put in the hospital because they were ambushed last night at the drug deal." Pete said to me as I turned to walk to the hospital wing of the house to hear what happened from them.

As he jogged to keep up with me I asked, "do we know who did it?"

"Yes. The Iero's." He said calmly.

I stopped in my tracts right outside the hospital wing doors. "Are you sure? I thought he dismantled his family."

"That's what we all thought, but it turns out that he just hid in Italy until it was safe to come back."

"Fucking hell," I yell and open the doors with a bang "CC tell me what the fuck happened last night!" I was starting to turn red with anger.

"Umm s-sir..." he looks from me to Pete to Andy. "Andy and I were going through with the drug deal and then all the sudden we heard gun shots. We stood our ground until someone came forward. He said his name was Frank Iero and he told us to tell you he was back." CC looked down and started to play with his hands.

I turned to Pete and said quietly but firmly "gather the soldiers and meet me in the conference room." I started to walk away, but no one else was moving yet. "NOW!" I yell and Pete starts to running to group everyone up.

I make to the conference room and not even five minutes later everyone comes busting through the doors and takes their seats around the rectangular table.

"As you know CC and Andy were attacked last night. They were attacked by Frank Iero him self," as I say this you could hear quiet gasps around the room. I continued on, "what should be do about this? I don't want to go to war yet because it's to early but we need to send a warning. Any ideas? Speak now." I said and looked around the room to seem them all with thinking faces.

"What if and hear me out...he loves his dogs more than anything and he has statues of them in his garden outside of his house. So what I'm thinking is we smash every single one of them. Then we would write in fake blood or even pigs blood 'back off or the real things are next'. And obviously we would never hurt the animals, I mean we are ruthless but not animal abusers." Alex says looking anxiously around the room, then his eyes land on me. I am totally dumbfounded.

"Alex that's a really stupid idea. But it might work at least until we come up with a better idea. We'll do it on Wednesday." I say getting up from my chair. I walk towards the door and say "dismissed" before leaving the room.
