Chapter 11

Everyone was present at the department as luis entered, General Huskey placed his hand on his shoulder, as they walked forward into the department .Everyone was putting on a smile, and the place looked different than usual.Beautifully decorated, as well as smiley and happy faces.

He had a confused look, as people tapped him at his back, and some rubbed his hair as he came forward.

Men in straw boaters and waxed mustaches crowded the auditorum.

He stood with a smile, still confused what was going on till it was broken down to him when lucy Came in with a well decorated birthday cake.

He burst into laughter, and hugged her tightly, as others applauded. General Huskey calmed the noise as he used a tea spoon on a glass cup making a cling sound, heard from a distance.

"May I have your audience ladies and gentlemen!" He said as the noise died down. "Lately, we have been having ups and downs, investigating and tracking down the most dangerous and feared assassins in United States. But tonight! we celebrate and have fun!" He said with a deep smile the applaud continued, and slowly died down as the general continued his speech.

"Guess what! today is not only just our brave and famous Detective Luis's birthday, it's also my wedding anniversary!" The noise got louder, as they clapped, and cheered.

"Tonight, we take a little break form the hard work we've been putting on, and have fun! All night partying!!!...." Everyone cheered and applaud loudly, as general Huskey ends his speech.

Everyone in the department was on good form, fully excited with the idea of taking a little break from the too much work, partying all night was actually a good idea to cool off from all the tension and hard work they've been putting on lately.

Meanwhile, Elliot and his gang members sat and listened to what was happening on the department through the digital audio tape Daphne placed on Luis's jacket earlier. At his side was the beautiful seductress and dangerous killer Daphne Charlotta as Elliot crossed his hand over her shoulder.

"So they are planning to throw a party huh?" Elliott said, Daphne laughed.

"That Detective kept me and my father on a hideout, and now they want to throw a party?"

"What are your plans? Arc asked.

"Tonight, we strike. We'd make that party of thiers a dismal flop, an embarrassment that they'd never recover from. Thier faces would be reported on the news, and thier efforts and profession questioned" Elliott replied.

"And how are we going to achieve that?" Daphne asked straining her ears to hear.

"You'd do all the work, why we wait behind for the main plan".

"Wait, me?" She turned sharply facing him. "How I'm I suppose to do that?"

"It's simple, all you have to do is spike thier drinks and get them totally intoxicated. It's going to be a noisy crowd of intoxicated cops... helplessly inebriated." They laughed loudly.

"That's a wide farcical exuberance of a clown" Daphne added and the laughter increased.

Elliott spoke up after the laughter died down "After you spike thier drinks, the media would be called to see group of drunk cops, who are meant to protect Las Vegas people would mock them, till they can't show their ugly faces to the public.

"That's a funny and embarrassing plan, but how would it work in our favor?" Arc asked.

"Good question, when they are getting through this nervous breakdown from the press and public, they'd loose thier focus, and we strike our next victim. Think of it, they'd have to answer for it, when they'd be reported by the media press partying, while the killers attacked.

"So, who's our next target?" Kyle asked, and others looked for a response.

"General Huskey!" He replied.

"But he isn't on the list" Daphne spoke up.

" I know, but if we can have him killed, it'd make a great impact on the police department and we'd have the upper hand in los Vegas"

"I taught your dad wanted luis dead instead. It's vexing to have to believe you are wrong!" Arc said out of annoyance Elliot didn't ulter a word, he just glanced away.

"Yeah, Arc's right" Said the other gang member who has been silent for a while. "What about the navy commander, he aren't dead yet!" He spoke in heavy accented American.

"Yeah I know about that. I know my father wants Luis dead at all cost, but he is the last one on my list. He shall live to see me wipe out all my target under his own nose and can't do anything to stop me.

We rule Las Vegas, and no one can stop us!" Daphne smiled and gave him a kiss as others watched. The sheer force of his words was mesmerizing.

"Yo! I feel your wit men!" The American gang praised vociferously.

Arc kept quiet in anger and jealousy. He haven't been in good terms with Elliot since he was kicked out of the military cause of assassination in mexico. The Mexicans wanted his head before he flee from the county.

Sometimes, he got that taught of serving his head on a platter of gold to the Mexicans but held back because kyle's life was wanted also in mexico too because they were in the act together, and kyle is like a brother to him. Arc was the gang leader and an amazing contract killer till Elliot's return. Since then, Elliot has been the boss and making him feel less himself.

He frowned his face all along as the others laughed and drink. He felt like putting a bullet on Elliot's head at the instinct but he would be a dead man in minutes.

He stood up and left the scene. Kyle was given a signal from Elliot to seat back, as he wanted to find out what was the matter. Car engine was held, and he zoomed off. Elliott looked up towards the exit for a while, he knew within himself what was wrong. He smiled, showing his 4 front tooth and continued.
