the man

The new kid's name was Nick, that's what I heard Sable call him, but I was busy grabbing my gun from my bag to pay attention. I knew that if I brought a gun to an explosives fight, I would have a small chance at surviving, but I still had a chance. I watched as the man descended from the hole in the roof. It was Jax, looking confused at the gun pointed at him. 

"Uhhhhh, hello to you too." He says, staring at us, I stuff the gun in my bag, Sable sighed. It was obvious that this wasn't the first time this had happened. " Jax, did you forget the entrance again?" Nick asked, obviously teasing, but he still had a hint of skepticism in his voice. 

"No, cops were after me, and I needed a distraction so they won't find our hideout. Or do you want that to happen, Nick?"  I pull out a cigarette, obviously annoyed, and hold it between my lips as I light it. "Ladies, ladies, you're both pretty, now can you shut up and let me think?" I take a drag of the cigarette and start pacing. 

We won't be able to leave anytime soon, so let's get ready to stay low for the long run. Jax, can you message everyone and tell them not to come here until further notice?" I ask before taking another drag of the cigarette, I hold it in my lungs before exhaling.

 "Yeah, I can do that,  just give me a minute," Jax says, pulling out his phone. I point my cigarette at Nick. "You, put the hideout in lockdown, if you know how to, then, idk, check our food storage to make sure we have enough if we need to stay longer than a few days, we need enough for at least a month." Nick rolls his eyes, obviously annoyed that I'm telling him what to do. 

He walks away. I look at Sablee. Can you make sure that these dumbasses stay out of trouble? I have to check up with some connections." I say, before going down a hall, I jump down on the subway tracks and walk their length, I emerge at an abandoned subway station and climb onto the floor, I walk up the stairs and exit, taking the last drag of my cigarette before crushing it under my colorful boot and walking away. 

I walk towards a giant building, which almost counts as a skyscraper, but it is one inch under the definition of a skyscraper. I walk in, and a guard almost stops me, and then he sees the tattoo on my collarbone, which was a snake, running from behind my ear to my collarbone. 

"Hi, sir," I say, walking up to the guard, " can you show me where Henry Armstrong i?, I have an urgent matter to discuss with him that cannot wait." I say to the guard, I watched as he looked me up and down. My outfit wasnt the most normal, it was odd compared to the dull colors of others. 

" Allow her in Arnold" A cold, demanding voice says, I knew who it was, It was the boss of the company, and my best friend, Henry.
