Emptiness

Chapter 33

Tim's POV

"So let's sing na nanana he ye ya, let's sing na nanana he ye ya. This is our song that's all that matters cause we all belong right here together there's nothing better than singing along. This is our summer, this our song" Kim sang along with the people on tv. We watched both camp rock movies and finally it was over, my misery had come to an end.

"I still don't understand why they sing every five minutes" I said shrugging.

"It's a musical Tim that's what happens in a musical" Kim said, "Where's Lee anyways?"

"Lee?"

"Get with the program would you? Lee is Lethal's nickname" she said.

"Oh" I said. Lethal was actually out plotting a plan against my father, apparently we now also have his address. "Uh I think he had to do an errand" I shrugged. What I said is half false half true anyways.

"Sure, I'm hungry I'll make a sandwich, want one?" she said already standing up.

"Yeah" I nodded.

"I want one too" Lethal said getting in the living room.

"Sure" she said and disappeared in the kitchen.

"So what do you have?" I whispered.

"We know where he is and he has his guard down. We have to strike first before he does" Lethal said.

"So that's the plan? We go to the lion's den. That is suicide" I said.

"Of course that's not the plan I'm not dumb undertaker" he said and I shrugged. "Bone is following his every move the moment he is alone we strike. I have already briefed the others about the plan. You, you just have to carry a gun and be ready to use it" he said. Okay that was easy enough.

"Sandwiches are served" Kim announced sitting down in-between us on the couch. We all took bites from our sandwiches and there is a reason this girl barely even goes to the kitchen.

"What is this?" Lethal asked gesturing to the sandwich with a look of disgust.

"I believe it's called a sandwich" Kim answered.

"You call this a sandwich?" Lethal exclaimed, "With the power invested in me by myself I hereby disown you Kimberly from being my niece"

"Fuck you" Kim said glaring at Lethal. She looks very cute when she is trying to glare at someone because honestly no one could ever be intimidated by her glare.

"Don't listen to him angel he doesn't know what he is talking about" I said pulling her closer to me and kissing her cheek.

"You are whipped" Lethal said shaking his head disapprovingly. And looked down at his phone. "Tim let's roll"

"What, now!?" I said and he nodded, "I can't leave Kim alone"

"What's going on?" Kim asked taking a bite from her sandwich.

"We need to go" I said.

"It's okay I can protect myself" she shrugged.

"Yeah come on let's go" Lethal said threw clenched teeth.

"Be safe, lock the door and don't open it for a strangers. If something happens call me and hide" I said and kissed her passionately. "I love you"

I stood up and started to exit the house. And got in Lethal's car. Saying I was nervous was an understatement. What was going to happen? Am I supposed to kill my father? What if something goes wrong? But there was a question louder than all the others, is Kim going to be safe alone? If something happens to her I'll never be able to live with myself.

I dialed Vic's number hoping that he answers before I reach my destination. "Vic?"

"Tim" he answered.

"Where are you?"

"My house, why?"

"I need you to go to my house and make sure Kim's safe"

"Ok. I'm with JJ anyways and he says he misses her. What's going on man?"

"I will tell you Vic, all you have to know is that I'm counting on you" I said and cut the call.

"We are here" Lethal announced.

"I don't even have time to take a breath" I said.

"Just grab the gun behind your seat and get out" he ordered and I did just that because once Lethal goes into leader mode you have to do whatever he tells you.

I looked around and saw the rest of Lethal's gang surrounding what looks like an abandoned warehouse. It does not take a genius to figure that something was wrong. My gut told me something was wrong, my instincts told me something was wrong, my brain told me something was wrong, even my heart told me something was wrong.

"This is a setup" I whispered to Lethal.

"He doesn't know we are onto him remember?" Lethal said and motioned with his hand for us to move in. I tightened my grip on the gun and put my finger on the trigger and moved.

Once we were inside we saw my father and the boy besides him, other than them there was nothing else, the room was empty. Now I was certain something was wrong.

"Ooh what do we have here?" my father said. I need to think of something else to call him cause he is definitely not my father. I'll just call him Mr Storm.

"Those can not be your last words" Lethal said.

"Well I think those can not be your last words" Mr Storm replied. Dozens of men carrying guns moved in. We were outnumbered no doubt about that, but we stood firm and did not budge.

"Timothy, seems like the apple did not fall far from the tree" Mr Storm said smirking.

"It's not like I was going to be a doctor at the age of seven after my parents abandoned me" I said and he grinned. "If you want me dead you might as well tell me why you decided to be a coward and runaway from your responsibility?"

"You are right I do want you dead, I don't care about your friends and even your little cute, pretty and sexy girlfriend. Once you die I leave them alone" he said and I clenched my teeth at the mention of Kim. "And if you have to know why. Then it's story time. The gang has existed for a very long time. It is said the leader must have one and only one son that will take over the gang one day. It's the culture it's been like that since the beginning, so when I had twins I had to do something. I first thought I could hide the other but I was soon discovered so I was given a choice to kill one. At the time you were always the weak one compared to Titan, so I thought he would make a better leader. The day we left I was planning on killing you but your mother said it was not necessary if we left you there alone you would eventually die anyway. But little did I know that she was planning on coming back for you, but anyways I killed her before she could, because love does not really exist in the lives of gangsters. Your best friend is a gun but also bare in mind that your best friend is your best enemy. You live by the gun you die by the gun" he said.

"How were you able to keep him a secret from me?" I asked pointing with my gun at Titan.

"He wasn't living in the same house" he said.

"You are deranged, a heartless lunatic" I snapped.

"Mark your words dammit" he shouted. He's mad really mad, well that makes two of us.

"Read my lips, fuck you" I said and his eyes darkened. He did a simple signal and the first shot was fired. It was aimed at me but his hitman had terrible aim. He shot my leg and I stumbled back firing a single shot of my own shooting Titan and he fell. Well the Titan had fallen.

Lethal ran to my side to protect me. Everything was in slow motion. Guns were fired and seconds later there was gun powder in the air. Screams and shouts were everywhere. We were outnumbered and not dumb so we retreated.
