Hunting the attackers(1)

"The enemy is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he is on."

- Joseph Heller

The city of Beijing washed out, the sky a blanket of darkness but sparkling and stunning lights seemed to embrace the darkness. However, there was something very conspicuous about the night like the crispness in the air that remains only after a storm.

The Déjà Vu.

A nightclub. A gentleman club. Or the epicenter of the drug Mafia.

The entire front bar was decked out in opulent oaks and mahoganies. The walls were a rich crimson red, and the floors polished hardwood. The scent of beer and liquor permeates the air, teasing the patrons with the promise of everything one could want during a rainy Beijing. It was mild and homey, inviting even. But then again, one might suspect that was probably how the owner wanted.

The music booming in the background.

"Just a young gun with a quick fuse

I was uptight, wanna let loose

I was dreaming of bigger things

And wanna leave my old life behind

Not a yes-sir, not a follower

Fit the box, fit the mold

Have a seat in the foyer, take a number

I was lightning before the thunder"

If one thought the Déjà Vu was a standard- typic club, they would be wrong. It was anything but a traditional club. Black Rose, a syndicate correlated with all those occupations that were crimes in China, ran the club which was the epicenter of their business.

Somewhere inside the Déjà Vu.

Men sitting on their stools, laughing and chucking in a very relaxed manner as if they had won a battle. Well, they had kind of by stealing from the invincibles of Beijing, the Longs and killed numerous of the Xin soldiers incorporating two of their higher-ups, two days ago.

"HAHAHAAA"

Men1: "They will never finger out who attacked them"

Men2: " The war begins with us attacking the Longs and Xins but will end with the demise of all the aristocratic families"

Their Boss: "Indeed, the Beijing will be ruled by us, the Black rose."

Men 3: " Boss Ji, big boss will award us for our exceptional service?"

Boss Ji: "Offcourse! He was very pleased with us"

All Men: "Hail the great boss Ji"

"HAIL- HAIL"

All of the sudden, the bullets came like rain that earlier washed the city throughout the day. Right before their eyes, the wall shattered and few shoes came into their view.

By the time, they realized, what had occurred the men clad in black suits holding machine guns in their hands which were pointed at the members of Black Rose, had circled the secret warehouse situated in the club.

The loud click of heels on the floor was heard as the men or soldiers to be exact, parted and emerged a woman dressed in red with a scarlet suit, heels, and even the lipstick of the same color. The women screamed danger and disaster.

"Tell me Alexander these dumbheads attacked our base? Because if you don't clear it out, I may take them as clowns, "The woman in red that was no one else but Zhenyi spoke. When she received the blueprint of the club, she noticed there was space left out. It didn't take a genius to realize they were hiding something behind a fake wall, and that the was the reason no one was aware of their secret base inside the infamous club.

.Secret Base? Hmmph!!! More like a museum decorated with arms and white powder.

"Haha-umm"

Alexander cleared his throat after letting out a snicker but he controlled himself on time. But his boss was right too, they looked more like hooligans dressed in the weirdest clothes and thick gold chains around their necks, playing mafia-mafia.

"Boss, the information we received from our sources indicated that the Black Rose organization stole from our men and heavily injured many of them including Mr. Cao and Mr. Qin"

The word ' injured ' caught the attention of the Black Rose and realization dawned upon them that their end was near but their arrogance wouldn't let them accept it.

The man called boss Ji clenched his jaw and asked in a low yet unwavering tone, "Who are you? And why are you pointing guns at us? Don't mess with us. Our men outside won't leave you alive if you dared to fire a bullet at our territory"

Zhenyi's voice was chilly yet sardonic. "Oh! You're talking about the dumb heads like you that were standing outside? Ahh too bad, they are lying peacefully on the floor"

"But dont worry! They won't be waking up anytime soon." She took a pause and added while looking deep into his eyes while a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Or ever. "

Boss Ji was scared out of his wits but didn't accept defeat. His pride would never let him accept defeat in front of a woman.

A mere woman was not even equal to his shoes.

"You- you…who are you?," He asked furiously.

" Your end, " She replied nonchalantly still a mocking smile playing on her scarlet lips.

"You bitch-"
