Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Episode 1: Life around here

Ringsville is the most developed city in 'Black County' State of USA. The city is made up of thirteen communities. Which include Craxton as the capital area, 21 Upper Hill where the really affluent beings reside, Sharktown where most industries are found, Bedbug and Trisword are the ghetto areas. Opera Town is a place for entertainment, fishplain is the economic region and Arrowtail is the coldest community hardly habited with mountain plains. HennyKane Island is the private island owned by the billionaire family, the HennyKanes. The rest areas include, Greentown, Leafonia, Dec and Pin Citi.

DEC

11:37 am

It began with Idris Delcoy, an ex CIA agent who had returned to his birth city six months earlier. Idris was a six foot tall African American who had handled divorce three years earlier. He had always considered his life a failure and had come to live with it. He had recently acquired a one bedroom apartment in the finest parts of Dec. Just past 11am that morning Idris was having a good rest when he heard a movement from his hallway, he slowly picked his licensed glock and stood walking towards the hallway, he crouched at the side of the wall for a few seconds after noticing the sound was gone, swiftly he crouched out pointing the gun into the hallway and there was James.

'what the hell do you think you are doing'? James Halloway asked looking at Idris strangely.

Idris stood feeling weak as he sighed. 'What are you doing here pal'?

'offering my old friend a very spectacular job' James grinned showing his incredibly white teeth.

'it better not be police work Halloway, I'm done'

'you ain't brother. Have imagined why a grocery store or a mall won't employ your ass'?

'Why'? Idris asked uninterested

'Because you are CIA, and CIA ain't gonna get a minor job like that. Not in RingsVille you won't' James walked into Idris' empty sitting room and made himself a cup of coffee

'I'm done killing people Jimmy' he noted collapsing on his sofa

'I didn't say anything about killing Delcoy, I need you to investigate, the Commissioner just put us as the lead detectives in a robbery in Leafonia right now' James stated taking the last of the black coffee into his mouth

Idris winced. 'Wait a damn minute, who's we'?

' You have a job now pal get off your ass, we've got criminals to catch' James quickly threw a badge on Idris' laps and made for the door. A confused Idris hurriedly picks his gun and jacket and followed James out.

BEDBUG

11:57 am

"this might not be a very good idea" Billy cursed as he still stared down at the mart.

"Oh it's the best idea in a long time pal" David replied smiling "it's an easy job boys..... No security, we take what we want and get the hell out" he added smiling

"OK so how do you intend to go into a mart like that and just get to give you the cash"? Jon asked without a clue. He was the youngest of the three friends and he was an African American. Jonathan was a prodigy, he had always dreamed of becoming a Naval Commander someday. He was good at Philosophy, sometimes he wondered what he was doing with the others. He never liked stealing and he could also say the same for Billy. But David? The youngster was a real thief. David had been an orphan since thirteen and since then he had been living alone in an abandoned room in the sewers. It was his palace

And though he was totally different from the rest, Billy and Jon loved David like a brother.

"It's easy guys, we have two pistols and a getaway driver" David noted starring at Jon as he grinned.

"Getaway" Billy nodded gently thinking. " Are we stealing a car"? He asked David

"Maybe, maybe not" He sighed heavily " I mean we pull at least ten grand from that place and we are off in Jon's grandpa's truck"

Jon gave David a quick shocking look "Are you crazy?, my grandpas truck, for real"?

Billy shook his head in disagreement " he's right David, that's too big a risk, if his grandad finds out that we took his truck, we are in for jail. And I ain't going to jail, I've gat a little sister"

"So what do you suggest geniuses"? David asked leaning off the ledge of the building edge.

"Remember Old Clarke"? Billy said

"Yah, the Old scary man that lives in Roosevelt Lane " David replied uninterested. He wondered where Billy was going with this

"He has a truck, he travels outta town on weekends and he leaves his truck behind"

Now David was turned on. "No kidding"? he asked delightedly

"I'm being serious pal" Billy said giggling

David licked his lips in excitement " The old mans truck it is" he stood up as he turned around walking towards the Exit door. Jon and Billy looked at each other. Billy could see the fear in Jon's eyes they have stolen before but in less public environments. Jon needed the money anyway, he'd use it to pay for his grandpas treatment. Billys palms crashed gently on Jon's back as he smiled.

"It's OK Jonathan, this could be a good change for all of us" Billy said helping Jon up. "Come pal, let's go home".

CRAXTON

HennyKane tower, HK Enterprises headquarters

12:08 pm

Denver HennyKane watched the busy Craxton streets from his large office window. He could see the rush the people were taking on. Sometimes he'd always wonder where humans were running to. After all life was too short to spend your time in a broken place, that was his theory.

He could also feel his chest pounding, he wanted this to stop already, the pain, the troubles. He wanted all of it to stop. Still deep in thought his secretary burst into his office.

"Sir, the meeting starts in five minutes. The board is waiting " she said waiting for Denver constant reply.

"Thank you Miss Candice, I'll be there in no time" he replied without taking a glimpse

She nodded and off she went.

***********

'Mr HennyKane'? Joe Decker called out to Denver.

There was no reply, Denver was deep in thought and it bothered the board as they watch their CEO in a very unusual mood he had began only lately.

Lara Gillian patted his hands gently, "Denver"?

Denver turned to her in a shock. "Mrs. Gillian"?

"Are you OK?, you haven't been yourself these past days" she added

He eventually put up a fake smile, It was so good that they became relieved "I'm OK"

"Well if you are now, we can go to business" Reece Bowie replied quite impatient

Denver cleared his throat and stood up looking at his eleven directors "Well as you all know I'm here to fulfill the HennyKane dream. My family dream. The HennyKanes aren't in RingsVille for no reason" he continued. "As you know it every year this city records a death toll of over a thousand plus Victims of blood disease. I have decided to open a lab in Pin Citi for hematology related diseases and it will be well funded under the HK charity program because as my father would always say 'one life saved is a world win'"

He waited to see their reactions and everyone looked completely blank until Lara Gillian applauded, then a few others, soon everyone was applauding.

"That's a good one Mr. Hennykane" Joe Decker commended still crashing his wrinkled palms.

"Well what's in for us in a deal like this?, it isn't a charity organization right"? Reece Bowie asked, he was always the hardly impressed one.

"Talk about the only hematology firm in RingsVille Bowie, there's definitely a large profit on this one" Mrs. Gillian tackled his question.

Now sitting on his chair, Denver could barely hear what they were saying, his eyes poured out tears, he fell off his chair to the tiled floor and from what his board members could see he was convulsing. He vomited blood continuously and in a minutes time there was medic in the meeting room.

Craxton High

3:00pm

"ok students, that'll be all for today. And don't forget there'll be a test tomorrow" Mr. Graham sang out to the a youngsters that were tripping out of the classrooms like bees in a hive. Damon had just finished storing his bag pack with books and noticed Elizabeth Conrad was doing likewise. Damon had always had a thing for Lizzie(as she was fondly called by everyone) since fourth grade and he never had the courage to spill out his feelings. But today was going to be different, he knew that.

He tried to gather courage and speak to her in the normal way he always did and then he remembered the words of his older brother: fear and cowardice is not in our blood. You Damon are a true HennyKane and you must always remember to seize your moment. No matter the consequence, what matters is courage..... its all that ever matters.

Those words always gave him motivation. Elizabeth was a total friendly how was he going to tell her he had different feelings for her without being straight? He walked up to her and gulped down spit, right now was his moment

"Umm, Lizzie brave thing you did in class today. I mean----- standing up for Henry it was really nice"

As usual the pretty sixteen year old brunette girl gave the purest of smiles. 'Well what can I say Damon, everyone deserves an answer. Thats why we come to school anyway, right" She giggled seeming to appreciate Damons concern.

"Yeah totally" for a moment he felt stupid wondering the next thing to say. "Uh, dinner. what about dinner at my place?. My butler is making an Asian delicacy I bet you'll turn out to like it'' He grinned hopefully.

She in turn made a sad face. "Oh Damon, that does seem like fun but today is my aunts birthday and there's a little celebration at home. Cant afford to miss it. well send Gareth my greetings"

Damon was astonished "You do remember his name"? forgetting the fact she had turned down his date

"Yes" she answered. "He is a person and a nice man in fact"

Damon sighed "Bet he is" This was beginning to get weird " Well can I walk you out at least"?

"Yes" she smiled

CastilyHigh Playground

Josh Ward and Nick Aiden threw a football at each other and clearly the aim was to catch it and throw it back. The Native American was in the spirit feeling like he was on a baseball pitch maybe josh felt same till his eyes caught sight of the pair a few yards away. He could notice Elizabeth smiling and giggling to whatever bullshit the HennyKane kid was saying and even if he hated to say it, they did look romantic.

All these happened in a few seconds before the hard ball whooped right on josh's head.

"ouch what was that for"? he asked irritated looking at Nick who obviously didn't give a care in the world

"You weren't paying attention dude, was just getting you back in the game like real sportsmen do" Nick grinned annoyingly. He however figured the reason why Josh was distracted.

"Oh!, it's Lizzie Conrad again. Perhaps you could ask for her autograph you know, tell her you are her biggest fan. She might end up just falling for you Joshua"

Whatever nick was trying to say it sounded like sarcasm and it made Josh a lot angrier

"I don't get it, I've got a thing for her since third grade man. Why does she have to choose that dummy over me"?

Nick scoffed "dummy? Bro he is a billionaire, a philanthropist and a diplomat, he is what any girl would want"

"Oh really? It kinda sounded like those words were in a mirror format"

"Were they"?

"I mean I'm not a billionaire, definitely not a philanthropist nor a freaking diplomat but I'll give u one better, I'm the son of the Police Commissioner. I'm goanna get my own Camaro on my 18Th birthday and........"

"Are you done"? Nick mocked "Nothings goanna beat being a billionaire okay? The dude has his own bloody island. You stay in a five bedroom duplex in Greentown"

Josh sighed frustrated "He's not a billionaire, his brother is a billionaire so cut it out. Why are we having this conversation in the first place"?

"You didn't catch the ball remember? It's your entire fault"

Still feeling irritated Josh watched the pair stroll over to the parking space

"Hey Josh you hate this guy so much how do keep eating dinner on the same table in family dinners"?

"He's died multiple times in my head" Josh gave himself a half smile.

Damon was still in an amusing conversation with Lizzie he noticed his ride was here. "Oh shit."

"What"? Lizzie asked concerned

"It's nothing serious my rides just here that's all" Damon replied with a charming smile.

"I'll see you around then HennyKane boy"

"You two Lizzie" he waved jogging towards the 1960 black Royce. Resting on the passengers door was Gareth Brooklyn. He was the HK's personal butler and since the boys became orphans he became a legal guardian until Denver turned 20.

"Hey Gareth" Damon smiled hugging the old man. Gareth was 68 years old who had been a loyalist to the Hennykanes for thirty-six years. He was the most trusted servant in the island. Damon in particular hated the title for any of the workers back at home.

"So It's the friendly girl now"? Gareth asked grinning

"Save your breath old man. She's just a friend, a very good one at that matter"

Gareth nodded unconvinced. "If you say so master Damon. If I may ask sir. Did you succeed in the dinner invitation"?

Damon shook his head in disappointment "None fell through Gareth, let's just go home" He said jumping into the back seat feeling so exhausted.

Gareth sighed sitting in front "Well we are not going home sir."

Damon was confused now sitting up right "Then where are we going"?

"The hospital. It's your brother, he had another dramatic episode at work."

Damon fell back on the seat. "Not again"

LEAFONIA

3:12pm

Halloway drove his Chevrolet Malibu into the Crime scene, there were cop cars everywhere and he packed just on the restaurant drive way.

He emerged out of the car with Delcoy following behind. "Well tell me you don't miss this Delcoy?" Halloway asked giving in a deep sigh.

Delcoy scoffed" What's here to miss"? He asked taking a quick look around the area. He noticed Sharpshooters in adjacent buildings probably ready to snipe down the robbers. "This isn't any fun Jimmy" he shook his head in frustration.

Just strolling away from the car they bumped into Officer Ploroe Farm, a police officer who was very loyal to Halloway.

"Detective Halloway" he called out feeling exhausted.

"Quite a day huh"? Halloway asked

"You can say that sir..... The Commissioner has been trying to contact you"

"Really"? Halloway shrugged

" Yeah" Ploroe focused his attention to the mute Delcoy "This must be your new partner" he concluded smiling

Delcoy shook his head smiling "Oh no, I am far from a partner Officer"

"Ploroe------ Officer Ploroe Farm" he introduced himself formally with a handshake

Delcoy took the hand Swiftly "Idris Delcoy"

Ploroe paused for a moment "Are u Muslim"?

Delcoy took in a deep breath. He couldn't recall how many times he's been asked that question "I was, but I left when I was thirteen and..."

"Oh comeon" Halloway cut them short. "Those robbers don't have time for you two to exchange your backgrounds"

He quickly walked past Ploroe and a couple of cop cars and policemen before getting to Commissioner Harold Ward who looked really stressed out.

"Commissioner Ward"? Halloway walked up to Harold

Harold didn't look impressed at all

"Where the hell have u been Halloway"? He took a glimpse at Delcoy. " So you spent your morning recruiting an Ex CIA and RCF(RINGSVILLE CRIME FEDERATION) Agent for a restaurant robbery?. How impressive" Harold cursed looking away.

"What is the situation"? Halloway asked

"Well we gat eyes all around. They aren't going nowhere, there are barricade tapes to show the danger areas. And worse part is.... they haven't made contact" Harold replied

Delcoy bit his lower lips "I know how these situations end. They'll ask for a lot of money and a getaway ride or plane"

Halloway shook his head "That won't happen"

Harold cursed again" James there are twenty six hostages in that building and we aren't putting their lives in Jeopardy just so you could be the hero cop."

James sighed "I didn't say nothing about being the hero cop Ward. I just feel we can't let these assholes get away."

"Has any face been recognized at least"?

Delcoy asked

Harold nodded "Yup" he handed a couple of files to Delcoy.

The first image was a mugshot of a smallish and fit Italian man.

"That's Bernard Eckhart, he's in charge of the robbery. He's forty three years old and he was a mechanic after his nine year old daughter Leah Eckhart died of Cancer four years earlier Bernard took to the crime life." Harold explained

Delcoy switched the files. A masculine man with unkept beards was seen in a private Photograph "And who is this guy"?

"That's Solomon Hasgrove, former RingsVille firefighter. He's Canadian and he's thirty one. It's all we know"

Delcoy rubbed his mouth. "So out of nine robbers you could only crack out the faces of two?"

Harold gave him an annoying smile "I'll consider that smart Mr.Delcoy"

At that moment Ploroe ran towards them with a walkie in his hands

"Commissioner a call from the restaurant"

Harold was startled snatching the walkie from Ploroe "Hello"?

"Commissioner Harold Ward" the voice from the other side of the line was ruthless, dark and loud.

Harold glanced at James and Delcoy "Yes, you are speaking with the RingsVille Police Commissioner"

"Good" the other side replied "Listen we have your hostages all tied and wired up, now u listen to me, you are going to prepare a sum of twenty million dollars in an Mi-8 helicopter you'll fly it over here and we'll be gone. You'll never hear from us again."

Silence fell on both sides for some seconds.

Harold glanced at James and Delcoy once again. "Look Mr.Eckhart RingsVille is currently running out of Ironbirds so I'll do you one a solid. How about we get you a bullion van and then....."

" Do you think I'm joking"? Bernard yelled in anger

"Perhaps I can just press this button and we can all die" They could see Bernard storm out of the restaurant in blazing anger.

All guns were on him

Halloway ran ahead all cars over the barricade tapes facing Bernard one on one.

He turned back facing his fellow cops

"Drop your guns, all of you" The policemen slowly did so.

Delcoy cursed from where he stood. "There we go. He's outta his fucking mind"

Bernard was not smiling "I have twenty six hostages in the restaurant all wired up and ready to blow so don't think of being the smart cop you think you are. I asked for

twenty million dollars and a helicopter, is that so hard to get"?

Halloway gulped down spit taking a glimpse at what Bernard held in his hands.

Bernard noticed also. "Yes Detective. Thats the fucking kill switch. Just a tiny push and it'll detonate and there'll be nothing left of those hostages."

"And your men"? Halloway asked pointing at the restaurant

Harold picked his walkie speedingly "Snipers eyes on the hostiles we need a simultaneous execution."

"Copy" the lead sniper replied from his side of the walkie

Bernard knew something wasn't right answering Halloway's question "They'll die for a good course"

"Snipers on targets, on your go sir" The lead shooter highlighted.

Harold Ward watched for moments Bernard was most carried away by the discussion with Halloway. And he saw the perfect moment. "Now" He said over the walkie, shots were fired flying into the building cracking the windows and dropping all hostiles.

Bernard was alerted "Fuck!" He attempted pressing the detonator before a bullet hustled through his right palm dropping the device. Halloway saw his opportunity and quickly took down Bernard with several shots to the chest.

"Gotcha" he sighed turning backwards to see who had fired the shot that dropped the detonator and he noticed it was Delcoy, the only man still holding a pistol.

Halloway nodded impressed. "That's my partner bitches"

Harold walked towards Halloway as he addressed some cops. "Get the bomb squad in there now"

"Yes Sir" a cop nodded as others followed.

"You did it again"

Halloway acted blank "did what"?

"Played Hero"

"Played Hero"? He scoffed " the way I see it, I was bait Commissioner. Idris is the real hero" he smiled as cops gathered Delcoy congratulating him for his bravery and the fact he was an Ex RCF Agent.

"There'll be a little party in RVPD. You coming right"? Harold asked Halloway patting him on the back.

Halloway turned facing Ward. "a party for killing armed robbers who robbed a restaurant"? He winced making Ward sound stupid.

Ward was silent for a while. "People could've been killed James."

Halloway shifted away. "No sir, I won't be there I got lunch with Diana" he smiled to ease Harold

"Remind me how you honestly still flow with your ex"? Delcoy asked now standing beside him

"Not everyone takes things personal" he charged at Delcoys question.

Delcoy smiled getting the concept of Halloways answer.

"Well then I'll see you guys around" Harold remarked giving James a friendly blow and then shaking hands with Delcoy. "Nice one rookie" Harold winked catching the expression on Delcoys face. It was a shocking one

The two men walked to the Malibu and Delcoy was kind of shocked. "Did he just call me rookie"?

Halloway nodded entering the car. "Bet he did.... Commissioner Ward likes to joke around Idris don't take it to heart"

Delcoy scoffed "Fuck Shit.. I saved the day"

Halloway giggled sarcastically "did you"? He glimpsed at Delcoy and put the car on the streets of LEAFONIA.

CRAXTON

CRAXTON CENTRAL HOSPITAL

Denver was already recovering from his episode that occurred in his office a few hours ago. He was lying on the hospital bed reading a magazine. He was placed in a private room he hoped what happened won't put his workers in confusion. Just then Damon bumped in rushing into the arms of the weak Denver.

He groaned a little as a chuckling followed. "Woah Damon what are you doing here'? He asked

Damon unlocked himself from Denver

"I am your brother. You don't expect me to hear about this and stay at home."

"I... I don't like you seeing me this way" He sighed rearranging himself on the bed as Gareth walked in

"Master Denver"

Denver nodded. "Yeah. Gareth I need you to drive Damon home".

Damon reacted grumbling "I just got here"

"Go home and have some rest. I'll be fine" he replied patting Damon's hair.

" Hey I'm seventeen I can make...."

"Hey..." Denver caught him short. You aren't an adult yet young man. Now go home and get some rest."

Damon took in a long deep breath "So you are missing Gareth's delicacy"?

Denver nodded. "I'll get mine here" he smiled "Now go freshen up young blood" Damon nodded and gave Denver a convincing smile.

"Come home soon"

Denver chuckled "Always. You have the strongest brother in the world"

"Now off we go Master Damon" Gareth interrupted leading Damon out.

GREENTOWN

6:34pm

All the duplexes in St. Harvey avenue were all the same. Most of the residents drove the same speck of cars and it was awkwardly quiet maybe it was because the RingsVille Commissioner lived there. Harold Ward drove his brown colored Aston Martin vantage into his garage.

The Wards duplex was totally different from the other rows of houses. It was larger and had a bigger lawn, perhaps it was the benefits of been a Commissioner.

He emerged out of the car wondering how he was going to approach his two children and explain why he missed picking them from school. He gathered courage and waltzed into the foyer taking a quick glimpse to the left where the sitting room was he noticed Joshua was on his video game and it seemed the youngster barely cared if his father was home. Harold now dropped the carrier bag he brought along near the entrance and walked into the room.

"Woah look who's home early" Josh commended still focusing on his game

Harold sighed feeling the depth of Josh's sarcasm. "Look I'm sorry, I know I promised I'd pick you and your sister from school today and we'd have a great time but duty called" he explained

Josh scoffed pausing the game facing his attention to his father. "That's the problem. Duty always calls. You could have phoned at least. I know what you are facing out there. I saw the news, a group of armed robbers were killed trying to rob a restaurant, I get it but you never put us first. Thanks to Nicks dad who dropped by,he tagged us along."

Aside the fact Harold knew Josh was angry he was kind of glad at the way his seventeen year old son always looked calm in situations involving his father.

" I'm sorry son. I got pizza though" Harold smiled knowing it'll get Josh's hopes back up

Josh giggled unconsciously. "Yah right. I get one of your slices"

"Deal" Harold concluded shaking hands with Joshua. "Where's your sister"? He asked taking a quick glance at his surrounding

"In her room as always" Josh replied going back to his game

Harold took the stairs to his daughters room and knocked slowly.

"Who is it"? The soft and warm voice from inside asked

"It's the police open up" Harold was trying to make a practical joke seeing if it'll get to her but there was silence for some seconds until he heard footsteps and the bolt been clicked aside. The door opened slowly and Harold caught the beautiful face of his eighteen year old daughter Jesse. She was considered the prettiest girl in CRAXTON high and no one dared mess with her or spend their night in a prison cell.

"Hi" Harold smiled

"Hey" she replied "is this a night shift"?

Harold laughed at the question "night shift for real? I don't do no night shifts" He noticed she wasn't in the mood.

"Would you let me in at least"? He asked, she gave him a vague look and gave more room between the both of them

"I'm sorry about today" he apologized sitting on her soft bed.

"It's okay. I wasn't all that concerned at least you got the bad guys."

Harold winced "yeah I guess so"

"Did you kill anyone"? She asked collapsing on the bed just beside him.

Harold laughed dryly. "No no no. I didn't"

She nodded with her lips bent

"How was school"?

"Well you know, same boring stuff. Just a loop" she gulped down spit

"Hmmm" he smiled looking at her "I got pizza"

She smiled "I'll be down in a minute"

Harold stood up hastily "you better be quick before your brother takes it all" he warned walking off.

ARROWTAIL

7:35pm

RingsVille Acropolis hill prison

This was the last place any one in RingsVille would want to be. It was full of criminals who had screwed up RingsVille a big deal.

The worst of the worst were in there but somehow the wardens were able to make the best of the prisoners.

In the last twenty six years, no one had ever escaped the Acropolis building unless you turned out dead. The security was at its peak and the structure of the prison was very spectacular.

The whole building was literally on the side of a mountain and most people who tried escaping fell to their deaths somewhere in the waterfalls that flowed from the mountain and came flowing out right under the building.

A warden walked to the cell number 316 as he knocked on the gates hard waking the sleeping man.

"Hey Coulson, it's dinner time. Don't make me repeat myself. The pot bellied man warned dragging the gate open. The inmate stood up and turned to face the sadistic warden.

"Please tell me we aren't having omelettes" Lloyd Coulson asked humorously he always knew how to make a joke out of everything.

"Make your way to the hall jackass" the warden ordered as he shut the gate as soon as Lloyd walked out.

Lloyd sat alone on a table that would have been able to carry seven others. Everyone had second thoughts of eating next to the most feared criminal in all of RingsVille.

Lloyd Coulson was a name that struck fear in every nook and cranny. He had lived his whole life in pain and anger and he grew to channel that anger to a greater purpose, hunting the city that destroyed his future.

He caught the sight of a fellow prisoner who was also well feared, Nigel Burgan A.K.A Bearhug. A huge and dangerous assassin, no one actually knew what Bearhug did that got him here. But no one dared asking. Lloyd smiled sighting him and walked over to his table with his tray in hand. Just like Coulson Bearhug ate alone so the fact that a skinny little guy joined him pissed the shit out of him.

"Tables full dummy, find somewhere else to choke"

Lloyd Coulson smiled staring at him. "I have heard alot of things about you big guy. And places like this aren't meant for us. So I'm offering you a deal. Do you wanna get the fuck outta here?"

Bearhug paused then slowly gazed at Lloyd "What would make me try an escape plan with a thing like you"?

Luckily for the duo Lloyd wasn't the easily pissed one. "I'll be right back, maybe this would change your mind. But in the mean time feel free to eat my dinner." He stood up and walked away as the confused Bearhug watched. Lloyd walked over to another table where a gang sat. He walked behind their leader Julius Stevenson A.K.A Huntstone another powerful inmate and tossed his hand over Huntstones shoulder and picked a piece of fried chicken from the tray.

"Excuse me fellas. It's all I need" he quickly flew back to Bearhugs table before Huntstone could even turn around.

"Hey you psycho, thats mine" Huntstone replied in anger charging from his seat towards the duo. Before he could get to the table Lloyd had done justice to the chicken.

"How dare you"? Huntstone cursed in anger

Bearhug laughed unconcerned "You are in a lot of trouble Coulson"

Huntstone grabbed Lloyd on the shoulder to pull him off the seat but Lloyd was rather prepared. He grabbed the tray and slammed it on Huntstones head as he crashed on the tiled floors.

The hall was in shock for a split second before everyone broke into a fight. Bearhug dealt with anyone who had crashed his dinner and the fight lasted for almost three minutes before the wardens got in control. Taking Lloyd, Bearhug and the bruised Huntstone for isolation.

Some few minutes later, Bearhug was thrown into a cell as he yelled at the group of wardens

"Party ain't over suckers"

They laughed "oh yeah"?

"Lucky for you Bearhug you've got a companion" Bearhug turned around to see Lloyd walk into the cell.

"You" he said coldly

The wardens laughed loudly as they walked away "That's your punching bag"

Bearhug clicked his fingers ready to rearrange Lloyd's face.

"Woah woah woah calm down big guy..... This was all part of my plan"

Bearhug released his fist trying to understand Lloyd. "What do you mean"

"We needed to be in the same cell so we could discuss better"

"I told you I'm not working with a psychopath like you"

"If you want to get out you'll need me" Lloyd smiled evilly

Bearhug sighed "What's the plan"?

"Leave that to me.... All you have to do is protect your key. And I am your key" he grinned.
