Find The Enemy

A knock on my bedroom door suddenly grabs my attention. I lifted my gaze from my computer and spin around in my chair and look towards the door of my room.. Before I was interrupted, I was analysing the information of two suspects my father asked me to study. Two men by the name of David Hendrix and Harvey Jefferson tried sneaking into our territory whilst we was away on an mission in Germany fighting our enemy gang. Lucky enough for my father these two men are apart of our enemy gang so now he can kill them and actually have a reason.

" Come in!" I shout to the person behind the door. Turning my computer off, I grab the file I made on the two suspects and stand up. My bedroom door gracefully opens and my uncle waltzes in. His warm smile is contagious and instantly makes me feel at ease.

" Well if it isn't my favourite niece!" He announces as he walks towards me with his arms spread wide open. Shaking my head, I step forward into his arms and accept his loving embrace

" I'm your only niece." My small chuckle fills the room as my uncle closes his arms around my frame and rocks us side to side slowly, " Well Pearl, I prefer you more than Samuel."

I pull away and playfully smack his inked arm and laugh with him, " You can't say that, Uncle Xavi."

" What it's the truth!" He throws his arms up in surrender before his dark eyes land on the file in my hand. " Let me guess, that's about the mother fuckers who decided to raid our home?"

" Yeah, it sure is. Let's just say that Wayne is not going to be happy when he finds out who they work for." I inform him as I bring the file closer to my chest .

" They work for 'them' don't they?" He says in a serious tone. I answer by nodding my head as I walk to my bedroom door and walk out into the hall way." Come on, don't want to make my father anymore mad," I anxiously tell him.

Xavier walks out of my bedroom and quickly makes his way towards me before swinging his arm around my shoulders." Hey, Pearl look at me."

I stop in my tracks and look up at him, the file I'm holding is clutched tightly to my chest. He sighs and brings his hand to the back of my head and gently pushes me towards his chest. He then proceeds to rest his head on top of mine." It's okay, just breathe alright? I'm not going to let him hurt you." He reassures me, carefully he pulls away and plants a gentle kiss on my forehead.

We both carried on down the hall way until we stop outside the Meeting Room. My uncle looks at me and nods, I lean anxiously reach forward and open the door and walk inside as Xavier stands protectively behind me. In the room there is a long rectangular shape table and sat down at the far end of the table in their little throne is my father. His elbows are rested on the table and his chin is lying inside the palms of his hands. Sitting around the table also is my mother, my brother and a few of our reliable and trust worthy men. My father's looks up slowly and once his eyes land on me, he gives my a cheesy grin.

" Ah, Ales-"

"Pearl." My uncle interrupts him. My father stares at my uncle, a look of confusion taking over his slightly wrinkled face.

" I'm sorry what did you just say? I am almost certain that you did not try to correct me," my father's stern gaze pierces into Xavier, his smile soon disappearing.

" I said 'Pearl' that's the name she prefers to go by so I recommend you respect her wishes and call her it.." My uncle says from behind me.

" I don't care what name she prefers to go by, at her birth I named Alessia and that's what we will call her. That is final, no more of these stupid nicknames!" Shouts my father, his voice filling the room. He coughs and quickly looks at me and gestures for me to sit down in the spare seat beside him. "Alessia, my dear, please come sit down and show us what you found, I hope it's useful."

With slow movements, I walk over to the spare chair next to my father and sit down. Once I'm securely sat down I shuffle the chair so it's at a further distance from my father. Opening the file, I take out two pictures and lay them in front of my father.

" David Hendrix and Harvey Jefferson. The two are practically brothers; David being the oldest of the two Harvey is from Germany : Berlin to be specific. And David is from Italy." I inform everyone. Taking a deep breath, I turn and look at my father before continuing. "These two men are well respected in the Italian Mafia and are believed to have twenty four hour seven security."

My father's hand fly down onto the table which causes my body to slightly jump in wooden my seat. He then grabs my file and throws it across the room which causes all the paper and all my long hours of hard work to go flying. " Hendrix! Fucking Hendrix! David is Spencer Hendrix's brother, do you know how powerful that man is? He is the currently leader of the Italian Mafia!" He looks down at me and reaches forward and grabs me by the collars of my shirt. " You better find them or I swear to god I will make you pay!"

" No you're not." My uncle says before storming over and pushing him away from me. "Lay one more hand on her I swear and you will be the one dying right here! Do I make myself clear?"

My father shakes his head and becomes more furious due to the confrontation. Wayne steps closer to me and points a finger at me," You have until the end of the day to terminate these two guys. That gives you thirteen hours to get the mission over with.You better leave no evidence of you being there, I want nothing, I mean nothing coming back to me. One more thing, if you are over that time just by a second I will kill him!" My father addresses to me then points to Xavier, who in return scoffs at my father.

" You seriously cannot expect Pearl to murder two people and leave no evidence! She hasn't had enough time to plan it out yet, she won't be able to work at her full potential. You need-"

" Do not order me around Xavier, I am the one in charge not you!" My father inches closer to my uncle and gives him an evil grin. " What's wrong Xavier? Scared that Alessia will fail?" Wayne taunts him.

" No I'm not scared, I have full faith in Pearl." My uncle speaks confidently before looking my way. My father follows his gaze and turns back towards me.

" Do you understand, Alessia? It's your uncle's life on the line. You fail and he is dead."

I nod my head in clear understanding glare into the eyes of the cold hearted man, " It'll be done within thirteen hours, Jefferson and Hendrix will be killed."
