Hi, Micheal thank you for getting back to me as promised.
The truck has collected the paintings and it's stored in a safe place.
The Callihams are safe. They still do not know about what could have happened. You guys did a great job.
Thank you, sir.
It's a good thing you heard what you did. Those guys were not just out to rob the place but also kill them. We found a rope on them it was to tie the victims up and they had loaded pistols.
Anyway back to your request, Sir, we were able to sell your place and I can safely say you will be out there in two days.
But the place you going to Sir it is quite far from where the office is based you sure you can drive that distance daily because I found a job closer to home for u.Its construction.
I know the guy is an ex-con who owes us a big favor so maybe we can pull a few strings for you?
That would be great but what type of construction?
Standard Sir Roofing and Tiling.
Ok, I guess I do not have a choice if I need to keep the wife happy.
Micheal thanks, Kathy has just woke up I will catch up with you.
He then ends the call going upstairs, when entering the house he finds the front door open as he reaches for his gun and slowly steps forward-moving alongside the wall.
Holding his pistol with both his hands in a firing position as he sneaks around the wall and aims the pistol at the two guys wearing a mask.
They are 6.3ft very big built.
Gents have you lost something he says as he hears Kathy crying upstairs.
Julia honey are you awake?
Yes she responds I am with Kathy I will be right down.No honey it's fine I will be coming up just getting something to eat on and it's a mess here downstairs I am busy packing.
Ok, she says.
So gentleman back to you. What is it that you want?
The two guys look at each other. Then glances back at Robert.
And laughs loud. Do you think a journalist guy will be starting us with a pistol they laugh?
To be honest, No says Robert but I am sure a cop will scare you with a pistol.
Well too bad you, not one now are you say the intruders.
Robert smiles using the skilled training he has done in the area by bringing them both down to the ground without using his weapon.
He kicks the guy behind his knee cap letting him fall to the ground as he kicks the other one under his feet that he ends up landing on his back.
He then points the gun at the bigger guy's head.
You missed a fine detail that could have saved you all this trouble he smiles.
So are you going to tell me what you doing here or will I have to get it out to you?
The guys look at each other you think we scared of you says the bigger guy?
No, I don't think you scared but you should be as he puts cable ties around their wrist.
Dragging them down to the basement.
He then pulls out a chair removes their socks and gets two buckets of water.
The intruder now realizes the person they dealing with is skilled and he is not a real Journalist. As Robert walks over and gets a cloth he leans the chair backward putting wet clothing over the guy's face and pouring water over it.
Are you going to speak he looks over at the other intruder?
No, the guy spits at Robert. Fine have it your way he then heads over to the guy who spat at him.
Puts his feet in the water.
As he connects the live and neutral wire from the globe letting it hang down from the ceiling. He then takes the wet clothe last chance no the guy says as Robert now puts the wet cloth over his face as he puts the live and neutral Wire over the damp cloth shocking the guy as the guys shake and you see smoke coming out off the guy he does this for two minutes until the guy passed out.
The second intruder is now shocked at the level of skills Robert is using and is so fearless what is he or rather who is he?
Robert now walks over to the other guy bringing pliers and damp cloth, Do you know what I am going to do with this he says. Yes says the guy shaking his head, are you going to talk or should I just get it out of you? As the guy remain silent Robert gets the wet clothe place over his mouth as he grips the pliers on his fingernail and starts pulling it as the guy scream Robert take water and pour it over the damp cloth. Stop says the guy I will talk to.
Finally you a tough crowd. Now talk I do not have all day. We were sent from the stops we were by a Mr. Wellington we never met him we only do as we told.
So you are monkeys you do as you told who is Mr. Wellington and what has he told you?
Mr. Wellington is head is a dealer who works for an international dealer called Lucifer.
Oh yes, now we on the same page. What were you looking for?
We were instructed to find a key he would not tell us what the key is only told us the key is not like any ordinary key we need to find it.
And this key would be by me? Yes Sir this is the address given.
Sir, you can not send us back they would kill us and our families. Fine no problem I will solve the problem he pulls out a gun puts on the silencer and shoots them both through the head.
Micheal, I need you to do some cleaning up here two guys raided my house Lucifer sent them.
Are you serious Sir their Lucifer whose som went AWOL
Yes Micheal I need this done as of now so that I don't have any more surprise guests visiting my house.
Right on it sir.
What key is Lucifer looking for says, Robert?A key? Micheal says I do not know Sir.
Well, whatever key it is it must be important.
Yes, Sir anyway we got a pickup truck parked outside the guys will sneak in the back to dispose of those bodies.
How many sir?Only two.
Robert hun where are you Julia shouts. I will be right up love just gathering some paintings.
As he heads upstairs leaving the basement door unlocked for the guys to sneak in and remove the bodies. Walking upstairs he can't help to wonder what key they were looking for as reaches upstairs he finds Julia and Kathy are laying awake she is singing for Kathy lullabies.
Honey good news we will be out here in two days.
That's great news honey she says as she gets up and hugs him
Hearing a knock on the door Robert's downstairs and see three guys standing in front of the door they all dressed up in suits and look very formal. Gentleman, how can I be of assistance?
We looking for a Mr. Robert. That's me suddenly the one guy pulls a gun and pushes him inside.
Where is the key?
What key does he say?
Don't play stupid with me the last person who was an idiot like you is 6ft under again I ask where is.
Fine have it your way as he attempts to go upstairs they hear a sound in the basement quiet says the other guy there is someone down in the basement.
They head down to the basement it's dark.
Hey, where are the lights of this basement the guy says?
Julia then Screams down at Robert who was by the door as Robert now panics for the safety of his wife he grabs the three guys pulling them down the stairs as they fall on the ground.
You bloody imbecile he hits Robert in the face with the back of the gun standing up and kicking him in the stomach.
I don't see anyone here he says let's go get the wife.
As Robert grabs the leg they point the gun at Robert's head. Do you have some type of death wish boy? Robert lets go of the leg as they head upstairs suddenly the basement door shuts close on them what the hell is it the people and this place hey you better open the door.
He attempts to pull on the door but it stays closed he then removes his gun and tries and fire at the door handle but his gun won't fire.
Dammit, give me your gun he says to the other guy as he grabs it. It falls to the ground.
Fuck this as they start trapping the door it won't open suddenly there is a whisper from inside a young child's voice saying be warned.
