Along the walls were a dozen of each type of weapon.There were at least 10 rows from ceiling to floor.Machine guns to AK 47’s, sniper rifles, Russian, clocks, and German handguns.Metal boxes along the other wall held all the ammunition and there had to be twenty at least of those.He spotted three full rocket launchers.Ground to Air missile launchers were next to that.3 large metal boxes of what was labeled openly as, “grenades” with no shame at all.Clips and belts of bullets lined the wall past that.
Nikoli beamed.“It was fun building this.”
Nicky laughed.“So now we know what you think fun is?”
“Yes, some have hobbies like golf,” Sergi nodded.”Not Nikoli, he likes shopping for weapons.”
Chuckles spread around the room.
Everyone grabbed a weapon and made their way to the back door.Several security men slipped into the loading bays and into the shadows.
Artem joined them now.He told Sergi,” The men have the families, secured.”He raised his weapon to be ready for whomever was coming.
Sergi, Nikoli and Felix stood just beyond the open door and they waited for the trio of heavy vehicles to come into view.When they did, Sergi lifted his hand and had everyone wait.
The back door opened and Leon Vincinti stepped out along with John and a detail of his own security men.
Sergi dropped his weapon to his side and stepped forward through the door.“What in the world are you doing here?”
Leon smiled briefly then paused to look around as Sergi’s men stepped out of hiding.Their guns were raised but no one did anything else as they all waited to see how the greeting would go.“I came here to help you defeat these stronzo cowards.John was keeping track of the members of the Triple Triangles and when he noticed they seemed to be gathering here in this town, I knew we had to step up here.Back in our home country, they are stepping up their manifest as well but the Secret Police are watching and waiting for them to make their worst mistake and then they will step in as well.When they blew up the Museum and hit the boutique, they doomed themselves.Our police are taking them out even as we speak, but we came to round them up here as well.We are looking for the Italian joker that just went through customs a while ago.His name is Mario Eliseo.”
Sergi pocketed his weapon and invited Leon to join him.
“It only took us an hour to get here, so we are ready,” Leon told him.
“Do you have men out there?”Felix asked.
“I brought this crew.”He motioned to the dozen men.“They will be as vigilant as your men.
Felix gave him a nod.
“We watched Mario and his buddy Artemy,” Sergi told Leon.“As they came into New York.We have eyes on the neighborhood and maybe we will see who the players are.”
“Si, but for now, they’re hiding like school children hoping they do not have to show their faces, I am betting.”Leon scoffed.“The codardia aren’t standing strong for their beliefs by just hiding in the shadows, hoping no one sees them before they are ready to wreak their own havoc.”
When they all walked into the security room, Serenity looked up.
Leon stopped when he saw her.He smiled gently and gave her a nod.
Sergi noted the exchange.“Do you two know each other?”
“No senor, but I always acknowledge a beautiful woman,” Leon assured him.“And she is very beautiful.”
Sergi smiled and nodded.“Not only very beautiful but she is also very talented.”
Serenity flushed pink and nodded at Leon then went back to her computer screen.
Everyone else joined them and were watching the screens.
Serenity gasped.
Sergi turned his head and asked, “What is it?What did you see?”
Serenity began shaking her head and glanced at Nicky.
He peeked at her screen and shook his head.“You better tell them,” he spoke softly.
Serenity swallowed hard then began sending commands through her keyboard.The other four screens in the room went dark but came back within a heartbeat.
