Contract Killers (Multiship)

Chapter 28 - Deal with the Devil

I'm back, sorry for the sudden vacation that I took.

Dust's POV

Dream and Killer had left a little while ago. That's also when everything went to shit. The rest of us were talking when we heard yelling from the drawing room, then footsteps, then a loud bang. My evaluation, someone yelled at the other, that person ran to their room, and slammed their door shut. I looked around, I saw everyone except for Nightmare and Ink. They left and went to the.... drawing room. Error seemed to know who is was that ran and immediately got up.

'Leave it to Error to go save his little Inky.'

Whatever is happening, I'm not sticking around to find out. I got up and went outside. I walked out onto the porch that surrounded the house. Columns and railing were lined along the edge of the porch floor. I looked upon the small town that was below us. We lived on a giant hill.

'Now is a good time to go on a mission.'

I was staring at my card when I heard someone come out of the house. It was Blue.

Me: Hey mate. What's up?

Blue: Why did you leave?

Me: I'm not sticking around for that bloody party if that's what you're implying. Sometimes, I'd rather be doing my job instead of having to deal with them.

Blue: Oh, well. What does your card say?

Me: Nothing special. Just a person who is going to die.

Blue: Well, I have something to tell you. I've been learning how to be like Alice.

Me: Be like Alice? What do you mean?

Blue: I can help you guys. I'm learning how to use technology, like hacking, finding info, and other things.

Me: That's fucking brilliant because Alice does a system update quite frequently.

Blue: Give me the card.

I gave him my contract and he looked at it.

Blue: I'll be right back.

He went back into the house. I lit up a cigarette, leaned against the railing and took a few puffs from it. I thought about the previous hour. The guys may be crazy at times but, I consider them my crazy family.

Blue came back with a laptop tucked under his arm. He sat on the railing and opened it. Staring at the contract, he started typing in some stuff.

Blue: Let's see here..... David Jones.

He made a few inaudible noises with his mouth. A thing that he does when he's thinking, I presume.

Blue: Ah, here we go. David Jones was born in Argentina in 1983 on September the second. He is currently in Las Vegas, Nevada, as it says on the card. His current occupation is a casino owner.

Me: That sounds interesting. I never had a casino owner before. Shit, lets do this.

Before I could do anything, Blue grabbed my arm.

Blue: Two things. One, I'm coming with you. Two, we can't just walk in there and kill him. He has several body guards.

I sighed about the realization. He was right.

Me: What do you suggest I do then?

Blue: That's why I'm coming with you.

He gave me a childish smile. He's an innocent little bean.
