* MITCH *

I got up earlier than planned and packed the necessary things as quickly as possible, called people and we went to get my brother. Of course, I knew Bucho would be expecting us and that the plan to rescue my brother would've to be thought through very carefully. That's why I decided to improvise at the beginning and went to Bucha alone.

I parked a little further from the old warehouse where Thomas was probably being held and walked to it myself.

As soon as Bucho's people noticed me, they started pointing their guns at me.

"Relax. " I raised my hands up. "I want to talk to your boss. Now. " I underlined the last words.

"So I'm listening. " Bucho suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

He stood between his two men, put his hands in his pockets, and stared right at me.

"You know why I'm here. " I said right away.

"I'm not giving you your brother. " Entered my words.

"You don't have to. " I interrupted him. "I'll get him back myself. " I added to which the other laughed.

"And how do you want to do it yourself? " He underlined the last word.

This time it was me who laughed.

"Do you enjoy that you're about to die? " Bucho raised one eyebrow up.

"No. " I replied. "On the contrary. It amuses me that it's you who are about to die. " I walked closer to him and his two "gorillas" reloaded their weapons, but Bucho calmed them down. "You've known me for so long and you always fall for that one. " I added and shrugged.

"For what? " Bucho frowned.

"And the fact that it's not my people who distract like you do in your case. But I distratct you now it, and they act. " I smirked. "And at this very moment, they're standing behind you. " I pointed for him.

Bucho and his "gorillas" quickly turned behind him and saw my people smiling at them and waving hello.

"You..." Bucho turned to me again, but he didn't finish the sentence when he saw what I was holding.

"Yeah, me. " I smiled. "Go ahead, finish it. Or you know what no... I don't want to waste any more time on you. " I added and pressed my magic red button which set off the bombs that surrounded them.

In a second, nothing was left of them. At last.

So without wasting any time, I headed towards the warehouse and, as I assumed, more Bucha's men were there.

I quickly pulled out my pistol and so did my men, and after a while the shooting started.

"Give up, maybe we'll spare you! " Chris, one of my people, called out.

However, a second after he said this, all the shots flew towards him.

"Or not! " Screamed then got up more pissed off and holding rifles in both hands started to shoot them. "Mitch, run! I'll cover you! "

So without waiting any longer, I ran towards the entrance to the warehouse.

I was close to having my nose broken by one of Bucho's men, but at the last moment I had to bend down. I twisted the attacker's arm and then pushed with all my strength against the wall and he didn't get up anymore.

Another shot at me, but luckily missed. I took advantage of it and aimed it at his head. On the other hand, the next three wanted to shoot me as well, but Chris defended me and shot them before they could react.

I just smiled at him and nodded, then ran deeper into the magazine.

"Thomas! " I shouted, but of course no one answered.

I looked through all the nooks and crannies, but he was nowhere to be found. Only after a long time of searching I find him.

His hands were tied and he was tied to a chain that held him a few inches off the ground.

He was beaten all over and his face was covered with blood. The shirt was torn, as were the pants.

Next to him was a table with various types of torture tools. They electrocuted him, cut him down, beat him and starved him. At that moment, I regretted killing Buch so quickly.

I preferred to torture him as much as he tortured my brother.

Wasting no more time, I ran over to my brother.

"Tommy..." I whispered and lifted his head to look at me. His eyes were closed, but then he opened them and looked at me.

"Mitch...? " He whispered weakly.

"It's okay, little brother. " I started to release him. "I'll get you out of here. "

"Mitch..." He repeated. "It's..." He tried to say something, but I didn't understand. But after a while it hit me. "It's... A trap. "

"Not so fast, Rapp. " Suddenly I heard someone's voice and turned to face him.

"Harley? " I looked at him with surprise. This was the man who told me where my brother was.

"Of course..." I sighed. "I could've guessed. "

"You could. " Harley smiled.

"Bucho paid you more? "

"Bucho was my father. " Said suddenly, which puzzled me.

"Oh..." I glanced at my brother. I didn't have time to hel him now. I wanted to do it now, but knew Harley wouldn't let me. "Well... Father, son. "

"You killed him. " The traitor took a step closer.

"You're very observant. " I nodded. "You know, I don't want to interrupt your mourning, so let me take my brother and you'll continue mourning daddy, how about that? " I shrugged and went to Thomas to untie him, but at the same moment Harley drew his gun and aimed it at my brother.

"Mitch..." Tom whispered. "Go... Run. "

"Easy, little brother. " I looked at him. "I'll get us out of here. " I added and covered him so that Harley was now aiming at me.

"You love your brother so much? "

"You have no idea. "

"You're ready to lay down your life for him. "

" I'd do anything for him. " I said confidently. " What about you? Are you afraid to fight like a real man? Are you aiming at me with your gun, but you're afraid of getting hands dirty a little? "

Harley laughed.

"As you wish. " He tucked the gun back into his belt. "You'll pay for what you did... "

"Before we start..." I broke into his words. "I want to be sure... "

"What? "

"You were torturing my brother, right? " I asked and pulled up the sleeves of my black blouse.

"Yes. " He replied and smirked. "Happy with the answer? "

"Oh, yeah. " I replied and then attacked immediately.

I have to admit that this bastard was quick. He attacked quickly and fought off blows, but I was able to deal with him. And that's pretty good.

But I wanted to untie my brother first, because he was already exhausted enough, but Harley wouldn't let me.

He swung his hand at me, but I blocked the blow and slung it over my shoulder. Then, before he could even get up, I punched him in the face, and blood flew from his nose, and he fell to the ground. But I knew it wouldn't keep him for long.

So I quickly ran to my brother and began to untie him.

"I told you to run..." He stuttered.

"Hey! " I interrupted him. "I'm the older brother. " I smiled at him. "And besides... I never listen to you. " I added to which Thomas just sighed.

I looked towards the Harley, but he was no longer there. Before I could react, he hit me on the head from behind with the stick.

I fell to the ground with a groan. Harley stood over me and swung at me again, but this time I grabbed the stick and, deflecting his blow, punched him in the face, then tossed the stick aside.

"It wasn't fair. " I shook my finger at him.

"Tell me..." He rose unsteadily to his feet. "Since when are we playing fair, huh? " Added and attacked again.

I had a terrible headache from hitting the stick and it was a bit harder for me to focus, which made me lose.

Harley pushed me against the wall, then grabbed my head and slammed it against the table top with all his might.

I felt the blood trickling from my temples. Everything started to spin around, but I didn't give up.

I got up and tried to attack, but stopped when I saw Harley aim his gun at me.

"Dirty play. " He just said and was about to shoot, but Tommy knocked the gun off him.

So, without waiting any longer, I threw myself at Harley and started pummeling him with my fists.

The traitor was surprised that I still had enough strength, but after a while he shook himself and kicked me and I flew backwards. The attacker came from behind and began to choke me.

"Mitch! " I heard my brother's voice.

"I didn't have time to finish him off..." Harley whispered in my ear. "But I'll do it now, and you... You're gonna watch it. " Added.

I felt everything boiling inside me. I growled and stepped back quickly, causing Harley, who was holding me, to hit the wall solidly, and as his grip loosened, I broke free from him and hit him in the face again.

However, I didn't notice that the other one had a knife and after a while he cut my leg, and I fell on one knee and he put the knife to my throat.

"You'll lose everything you love..." Harley snapped. "Just like me. "

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Tommy trying to break free, but didn't know if he'd succeeded.

I grabbed Harley's knife hand and tried to free myself somehow, but it didn't work well.

"First I'll kill him..." Man said, pointing to my brother. "And then... That beautiful redheaded girl... You'll watch them die without being able to do anything about it..." Said, but he paused and suddenly I heard him choking.

I looked up and saw Thomas. He failed to fully free himself from his bonds, but he did enough to throw a piece of chain around Harley's neck and begin to strangle him.

After a while, I managed to free myself from the traitor, and when I saw that Harley wanted to attack my brother with a knife, I didn't wait a moment, just twisted the gun and stuck it in his leg. I could've killed him, yes.

But I preferred to wait with it and then put him through the same, if not worse, torture he gave my brother. After a while I hit him harder in the face and he finally passed out.

"You talk too much. " I sighed and looked at my brother. "You're alive? "

"Yeah..." Brother sighed.

I got to my feet and released Tommy.

"Oh shit..." I heard Chris's voice behind me. "What happened?! " He looked shocked at me.

"Relax, I handled him... "

"Alone? " Tommy raised an eyebrow up.

"Sure. " I replied. "Haven't you seen? " I smiled. "And you were in no rush. " I turned to Chris.

"Sorry, something stopped me. " He pointed behind himself. "I had to help boys. "

"So be it. " I sighed and grabbed Thomas, who was so weak that if I hadn't caught him then he would've fallen to the ground. "You're okay? "

"Yeah..." Said.

I threw one arm over my back and slowly led my brother outside.

***

I was the first to enter the hideout on purpose. Why? Because I wanted Lydia to worry a little. As soon as I opened the door to my eyes, a red-haired girl appeared with beautiful green eyes, which now expressed only fear.

I wanted to keep her guessing a moment longer, but I changed my mind and decided to take pity on her. I gave her a slight smile and nodded my head at which the girl breathed a sigh of relief, and after a while she hugged me, which surprised me the most.

I didn't know how to act, but after a while I hugged her uncertainly and gently.

"Thank you..." She whispered in my ear and then stepped back and looked into my eyes.

I didn't answer anything, but I nodded my head to behind me, and when girl looked at that place in her eyes you could see a flash immediately. She glanced at me this way.

I smiled slightly.

"Go..." I whispered at which. Girl smiled and ran in the direction I had indicated a moment earlier.

I turned and saw how she jump on Thomas and hug him. Brunet immediately hugged her back. They looked cute together, I admit.

"Boss? " Chris snapped me out of my thoughts. "What about that? " He pointed outside.

I knew he meant Harley, who stayed in the car with a bag over his head so he wouldn't know where we were.

"Come on. " I just said and boy followed me.

Thomas and Lydia followed us with their eyes.

"Wher ..." Thomas began, but I cut him off.

"I'll be back soon. " I glanced at them and went outside with Chris.

***

We took the traitor and drove him to an abandoned shed, which was quite close to our hideout. Why did we take him away? So that Tommy and Lydia wouldn't hear him screams while being tortured.

We tied him up and put him on a chair. I gave myself another one and sat down in front of him, then sighed.

"So? " I looked at him. "With that hand..." I grabbed his fingers and bent him back with all my strength until I could hear bones breaking, and Harley himself began to scream mercilessly in pain. "Or maybe the other one... " I grabbed the other hand and did the same as with the previous one. "You tortured my brother? " I finished.

I waited a moment for the traitor to shut up and then nodded to Chris, who was standing next to Harley and after a while Harley was drenched with a bucket of ice-cold water.

"Cool, huh?! " I growled at the traitor and then got up so quickly that the chair I was sitting on toppled over. I grabbed his jaw and lifted him up. "You knew that, but now I'll remind you again..." I spoke sharply. After a moment, Chris handed me the cable and I continued. "Nobody dares to touch my family... And Lydia or her mother is one of them..." I looked Harley in the eye and this time saw real fear in them. "Especially, no one dares to touch my brother..." I glanced at Chris and nodded. After a while, boy carried out my earlier order and turned on the electricity. "Nobody, nobody dares to touch them. And if someone does... Dies a slow and very, very painful... Death. " I added, then put the cable to his eye, and his screams could be heard everywhere.
