Chapter 5:

Message

Geminus


Mikhail opens the bottle of whiskey and takes a sip. "Tell those morons standing outside my store to get out unless they want me to file a lawsuit." Said Mikhail as he said it was close to where Grant was. The group in the van hastily get the car ready and drives off, knowing full well that they have been discovered. Grant looks at security footage that was away from the music store and he laughs as he watches the van drive off, with Mikhail and Liam laughing along.

Liam stops laughing and asks "Wait, but shouldn't we at least know who sent them?"

"You make a valid point my boy." said Mikhail, he stood up and continued "But at the moment, we have these fraudulent pigs that dared to step foot into my store and dare to try and wreck my father's treasures." He lifts the switch, and the room that the unconscious riot policemen were in, opens up. A sentient robotic conveyor belt appears and carefully carries them on top of it and escorts them into another room.

Mikhail continued again "And I can't allow that... And that's why, we'll see if we can make these frauds crack." Liam looks at Grant with a frightened look. Mikhail takes out a spray bottle with a clear liquid, similar to water, and he sprays it on Grant and Liam. Mikhail explained, "These idiots must have used Zaza's tech to track you two down, this will clear the mark and prevent any further tracking for the next 10 hours, can't guarantee it."

Mikhail, Grant and Liam return upstairs to the music store. Arriving uptop, they look around at the destruction that the fake riot policemen caused. The three cleaned up the music store as clean as it could be, and also salvaging any CDs and Vinyl's. Grant picks up one of the Vinyl's, that appears mostly destroyed, and stares at it with deep regret. He sighs and places it in the big bin.

After cleaning the store, the three return home, via Mikhail's car but returning home, they find it completely destroyed. Mikhail, out of fear, runs of his car and to the garden but he is unaware as the individuals from earlier shoot him, causing him to fall.

"Pops!" Shouted Grant as he and Liam run out of the car. Grant charges at the individual, socking them in the face, and exposing their robotic implants as one of them has their jaws ripped out. Another individual from behind takes out their gun and tries to shoot at Grant but with his reflexes and his combat knife, he cuts the bullet in half and distracts them long enough for Liam to punch them in the face and causing them to go down on the ground.

Suddenly, the same black car appears from the restaurant, both the front and back door opens, revealing the driver, they shout "Get in."

Without second thoughts, Grant and Liam carry Mikhail in the car and they drive off as more of them appear as they try to gun the car down.

"Take us the to the safehouse!" Said the driver.

"Understood, routing destination." Answered a female robotic voice.

The car's steering wheel disappears and the vehicle drives by itself. The driver helps Grant and Liam with tending to the gunshot wounds.

"You're safe now." Said the driver.

Someone from a skyscraper watches them. They flip a coin with it landing on heads, they say "It seems you've proven yourself lucky, Geminus... Soon England will fall..."
