Chapter 7 - chapter seven. sneaky thiefs.

jetro would drive the truck. he had been assigned by zero.

to drop us at the train station.

It was at lake lines.

we would be moving at mid night.

Sarah had recruited her girls for the mission.she was armed.

she had sent grace to deliver the letter which contained rex plan to invade the underground tonight.

It was sent to the police department at palm street.

everything was set and she was prepared.

zero had placed spies on the road.

to alert him of any sign of rex and his men.

or the police.

they would have to cross James end street to get to lake lines and they was no way they would not be sighted.

she had gotten the information from Lucy.

one of her girls who lived at blue lane.

she was around to see Jeffery's dead body on the ground before it was taken away.

according to her.

rex wasn't happy about the incident.

his brother had been killed.

she watched as he drove out from the street. he was going to the hospital.

he came back after he saw his brother.

some of his gang members were waiting for him in his house and they had discussed about going to the underground for answers.

lucy was clever.

she stayed around till the end.

without getting caught.

naked ally had began it's usual business and the place was extra filled and noisy.

from music to laughter. glass cups were dropped on the table.

Sarah could hear it all. she was focused.

she sat at the bar with her girls by her side.

they were four in number.

she'd decided that they were enough.

this was meant to be an in and out mission.with much risk involved.

they was no gain without risk in this line of work.

she was ready to do it. it involved her neighbourhood gang members.

the legion mafia gang which was just at the next street.

the gang was run by the famous lobos odini.he is known for his drug activities in the town.

quite the name and wealth he had made for himself.

but none of this came without getting his hands dirty.

without attracting enemies who were in for the competition.

or having police officers on his trail every hour.

it was all risks and this man was known for his brutality in the game.

especially to people who took him to be an enemy.

the underground world was the best place to hide in the town.

it was were the train station was built and that was how he transported his load of drugs which he purchased from other towns and cities.

everyone.

including the Torino police knew what went down there.

it was never easy to catch him in the tunnels.

lake lines was big enough to hide.

not to talk of the tunnels which was built quite deep.

further chase within didn't always end well for anyone.

especially the police.

news of clashing within the tunnels had been reported repeatedly over the years and bodies had been discovered.

for some reason.

it had been shut down.

the train station.

it waa opened by the workers who had a business to run.

it is owned by one of the council members.

built at the early 190s.

she had not been given birth to around that time and it still served it's purpose till date.

"hey."

she whistled at the bar tender boy who was serving drinks to the other customers.

"fill ours up."

"will you."

she said.

he nodded and quickly brought the bottle toward their glass cups.

"good lad."said grace. she winked at him.

"so when are we to move?asked Lexie.a girl with tattoos on her neck.

Sarah looked at her.

"we wait for the signal."

rex and five other men could be seen driving with full speed past James end.

they all wore black clothing and were on top of their black bikes.

their engines were loud.

all eyes were on them as they drove past naked ally.

they drove into a road at the left direction.

they were going to lake lines street.

the street had huge poles and lights.

the houses were in line and it was quiet here.

most of the houses lights were off.

it was like no one inhabited these houses.

rex and his gang members continued to move along the straight road.

houses were at each opposite side of the street.

some appeared to be a storey building.

mostly made of bricks and stone.

they suddenly stoped at a sign board which signified that a train station was just below. They was a two storey building near the sign board.

they all jumped down from their bikes and the lights from it went off.

it was a quiet surrounding that remained.

they were armed with guns.

rex glanced around his surrounding.

it was silent.

he could hear the sound of dogs barking far ahead. one or two houses lights were on and he could tell that people were still awake.

he glanced at his watch and it read 10:10pm.

he flicked his flash light on and the others did the same.

he began to walk down the staircase.

he held a pistol in his left hand and a flash light was in the other.

they went down the staircase.

they was no sign of any train movement.

it was quiet within and dark too.

the staircase seemed not to end.

it was a Tuesday.

rex began to wonder if the train station was on break period.

he tought it would filled with night travelers.

so far.

noting was working.

even the lights at the staircase.

he observed them with his flash light.

they all slowed down when they got to the end of the staircase.

the rail road was empty and they was no train in sight.

they were tiny red lights at the railroad.

a house stood just at the corner and white lights were inside.a well made aluminum glass building which was also made of steel.

no one was in sight.

rex suspicion grew when he confirmed his instinct.

the place wasn't functioning today and neither were they passengers nor any train. never the less.

he wasn't here for any of those.

his main target would be inside the tunnels.

they were lots of them.

all round and connected.

lobos odini had to be here.

he was looking out for anyone who lurked beneath this ground.

"on me."said rex. he jumped into the railroad.

the others did the same.

he pointed his flash light toward the first tunnel that revealed itself.

it was empty and it seemed to be without end.

rex turned to face the left direction and found a wall.

he went futher to the tunnel at his right side.

it was huge enough to contain him without squeezing himself.

the others followed right behind him.

the flash light brought into view what seemed to be empty containers and dirt.

waste products and filthy rags.

rats could be seen.

they were running around.

another path revealed itself in the tunnel.

it lead straight.

without an end.

they pointed their flash light around to discover more openings.

rex had never been down these tunnels and it was his first time coming down here.

they could hear water dripping on the concrete floor.

it was too quiet down here that he was starting to wonder if any one was actually here.

until he started hearing voices.

"boss."

"do you hear that?asked Omar.

rex hushed him.by signaling him to keep quiet.

he began to hurry to where the voices were coming from.

they took a left.it diverted them from the straight path and another path revealed itself.

they all switched thier flash light off when they noticed that this corner was well lit and shadows were on the tunnel walls.

they was a lot of noise coming from this direction.

footsteps and voices.

he heard the men.

just by this corner.

they were working.

the sound of goods being dropped on the ground could be heard.

rex began to move forward.

No doubt it was them.

the legion mafia gang.

they all hid themselves like rats in this place.

"get this going."

"boss wouldn't like these to be delivered late."

"hurry up."

"hurry up."

the footsteps seemed to be more than twenty or more.

rex calculated.

before he could reach the ending to peep.one of them came out.

it was a young boy with ragged clothing on his body.

he was wide eyed with fear when he saw them.

he quickly raised his hands up when rex and the others pointed their guns at him.

"what's happening over there?

a voice asked.

before any movement was made.

rex ran toward the young boy and grabbed him by the neck.

using him as a shield.

he revealed himself to the others who were at the underground.

a group of men and young workers could be seen.large boxes could be seen and they were being arranged and carried away to some where else.

as soon as they saw him.they started to shoot at him.

the man in front pulled the triggar of his gun but the bullet went to the young lads body.

rex aimed with his pistol and pulled the triggar of his gun.

the man gat hit while rex to fall to the ground.

"move it."

"move it."a voice kept yelling.

Omar and the others quickly came to aid him.

the gun fire began.

bullets percing into the boxes and hitting some of the men.

some of them tried to move the boxes away but they got killed.

their bodies went straight to the ground.

without warning.

stainless threw a gas grenade toward them and it exploded.

bringing out smoke.

he quickly went to pull rex from the ground.

away from the bodies which lay on top of him.

the men at the other end were retreating and they were coughing.

"shit."

"Shit."

"who the hell are these?a voice asked and the sound of footsteps could be heard.

followed by the sound of police sirens.

"it's the cops."yelled Richard. Barack successfully grabbed rex from harms way.

"come on buddy."

"we need to move."

flash lights could be seen coming from where they'd followed.

the four of them were already on the move.

finding another exit.

the ground was filled with both white substance and blood.

then the bodies of those who had been killed.

rex was bleeding.

he'd been shot.

he held his pistol.

they kept moving forward and the railroad could be seen just ahead.

behind.

flash lights could be seen. they all jumped into the railroad.

the red lights filled the darkness.

the only way out was through the staircase.

thier bikes were parked outside.

"shit."

shit."whispered Omar.

"what do we do?

a police officer who held a flash light suddenly came from the staircase and rex began to shoot at him.

"am not leaving without him."

"we need to go rex."said Barack.

"you're injured."he glanced at his wound and winched in pain.

Barack led the way and held on to rex left arm as they moved on the railroad.

they reached the entrance of the train station and climbed into high ground.

the staircase was just ahead and the gate was still open.

blue and red lights could be seen outside.

it was the police.

it was all a set up.

rex looked back.

into the darkness and saw a group of men who were watching at the other side of the holes in the tunnels.

they had masks on their faces.

he stared at them until a hand dragged him forward.

it was Barack.

they began to move again. running on the staircase until they came outside. two police cars were outside.

"freeze."the men in uniform yelled.

Barack quickly opened fire and this resulted in a shoot out.

bullets hitting metal doors.

he opened another smoke bomb and threw it toward them.

it exploded and the gas began to come out. leaving the air polluted.

they began to cough as they hurried to safety.

rex immediately jumped into his bike and started the engine.

thier motor bikes front lights came on.

they drove out from the street with full speed.

leaving the police vans behind.
