"The fuck did he do that for?" Joe shouted as they jumped out of the car right in front of their home. 

"I don't know, let's go in first" lugo said leading him in by the hand. 

Sitting in the parlor, Lugo poured a glass of vodka and handed it over to Joe who gulped it down in seconds and broke the glass on the wall. For minutes they sat there staring at empty space, Joseph's eyes blazing like wild fire. They didn't spend long before Stanley came in, holding a crying Maria. She left Him and ran to her brother, they hugged each other and Maria cried more, Joseph was tough, he was hurt alright but he couldn't afford to break down, he needed to be strong for his family, for his cliques, they needed no weak leader. 

"Where's Jaycee, where's August? " Joseph asked looking around. Maria jumped up and went inside the house and reappeared with her phone, frantically dialing Jaycee's cell.

Jaycee cell kept vibrating, he was in the bathroom taking his bath and Nancy was in the parlor with August, she was going through Jay's phone. 

"Hello" she said as she picked the call. 

"Hello, Who is this? Is Jaycee there?" Maria asked anxiously. 

"Yes, let me get him for you" nancy said and dropped the call. 

"Jay, one of your girls need you on the phone " she shouted. Jaycee came in already dressed. Nancy flipped the phone over to him. 

" Fukk, that's my sister" he said as he picked the phone. Before he could call her back, her call came back in. 

"Hello sis"

"Jay where are you?"

"I'm with nancy, what's up?"

"Come home immediately, get baby back here"

"Oh okay ". 

They dropped the call and together the three of them walked out of the house. Holding August by the hand and Nancy on the shoulder, they strolled leisurely. They haven't been walking for long before a Mercedes Benz pulled up to where they were, the back door flipped open and seating at the Extreme end was a man in dark shades, a .38 in his hand, pointed towards Jaycee, he was motioning them to get into the car. 

"Are you kidnapping us?" nancy asked

"Get in the car before i bust ya'll caps" the man commanded in a hoarse voice. 

Jaycee moved slowly towards the car like he was going to get in and then in a fast twist, he banged the door shut with his leg and pushed both August and Nancy away, dropping on the floor with a thud, he pulled out a .34 from his trouser and fired aimlessly at the projected direction of his assailant, 3 shots, the sound of bullets hitting metals and screams from inside the car was all he needed, he jumped up from where he lay, grabbing August and Nancy, he ran as fast as they let him. 

Within seconds, the mercedes came back to life and ran madly after them. They cleared from the pathway to escape being bashed by the car and in a twist of event, a low rider pulled up, Joseph and Lugo jumped down from it, Joseph clutched his Ak while Lugo held a sawed off short gun. Without further delay, they faced the Mercedes and lit it. One could easily see the anger through Joseph's eyes as he emptied his clip on the car. 

Satisfied, they went closer to the car and observed it, the driver was a body of holes as no chunk of meat was in its place, he head busted in two, his hand hanging loosely from his body. Joseph nodded and approached his brother, without a word, he picked August in his arms and made for the car while the rest followed.
