Okay ya'll here is the last chapter. Enjoy.
Dangerous 16
I stand and shake my head as the conference meeting adversaries leave my damaged hotel and run outside to see the factory in clever flames. Clever eh? That fucking blonde man.
There goes all my money. My fists get tighter.
There go my drugs. My eyebrows knit.
There goes my reputation. And there goes my son.
Should I stand here and shed a tear. Should I grieve in this fucked up of a hotel now. Or should I finish the job I was assigned to a long fucking time ago. Kill Alex. Make sure he bleeds. Make sure his head is removed from the rest of his body. Cut out his eyes so that I don't have to look at the egoistical face any longer. Yes. I run this business not him.
The people gasp but don't scream. My drugs were their drugs. My money was their money. I sigh. I take out a silver handgun from behind my stand I still stood at. I make sure it is loaded. I take another look around. Right outside I can see where my drugs were burning. My men burning. My son. Right outside, I can see the people getting angry. My pager beeps. I am being notified that a helicopter will land soon at the land sight and pick me up. I can escape. I can start a life somewhere else. A business somewhere else.
But wait. I made one mistake before. I need to kill Mr. Alex first.
Right outside, I take a walk. I walk out the blasted side doors and head to my car.

Phai and I literally crawl towards the elevators and into the elevators. Then we crawl back out. I am assuming due to the damage the elevators are not working. All circuits out. I think all of Parmens men are dead. I don't know how we are going to take down Parmen who I am assuming is in better shape than us. I help myself and Phai and we lean against the wall breathing heavily as our wounds assault us.
"Alex I don't think I am going to make it much longer." Said Phai his eyes closing on me as he held his bleeding stomach.
"If it makes you feel any better, I don't think I am either."
It's almost the end. I don't know the time. We can't just sit here though. We need to get to Parmen before he escapes. I get to my feet first. I try to help Phai get to his. He is in bad shape so I don't stress it. "You stay here then and I am going after him." I tell Phai.
I know he wants his revenge but he won't be able to.
"Fine by me." Phai said. "I am not cut out for this shit."
I smile. "Promise me you will be alive when I get back."
"I'll be alive." He promised.
"Good." I take my shot gun and leave him. I go down a hall, stairs, more halls and more stairs and hurry into a much fucked up looking lobby. It was nice one minute and now it looked like zombies raped the place. I see the remaining adversaries leaving in their rides. They ditch the area. That was the best thing they could do before cops arrive and see this mess.
But Parmen was nowhere in sight. Fuck. He probably escaped already. I assume he headed to his car. I trip over things and run out through what was left of the entrance. I run out to the parking garage. No cars. Fucking perfect. He is gone.
I go and run to where my team was at. I see a helicopter fly over my head. I smile. Bingo.
I find my team. They are still there. They approach me when they see me. They seemed shocked.
"Cleitus, Parmen is heading to the land sight we have to get there now." I tell them very much in a hurry.
"Sir we thought you were dead." Cleitus responds.
"No not yet. Alright go fast and take down the helicopter. Make sure Parmen does not leave."
I get into my car.
My men pack up all their weapons and gear, get into their vehicles and drive off towards where they see the helicopter flying. I drive off and go pick up Phai. I go back in the hotel and get him where I left him. He looks like hell.
"Come on Phai, we got to go." I grab his arm and fling it over my shoulder.
"You didn't find Parmen." He looks at me distraught.
"He's trying to escape and I am not leaving you here. Come on." I help Phai up and he leans on me. We get out of the building. I seat him in my car. He takes steady breaths or tries to while scratching at his arms. He is making them worse. I grab his hands and relax him. "Don't do that anymore Phai. Scratching won't help it."
"I can't help it." He says and pushes my hands away stubbornly and starts scratching at them again.
I snatch his hands back. "Hey after this, after we stop it all, we'll go from here far away okay." I tell him. "I am so sorry that you had to go through all of this."
"You're not blaming yourself for this are you? I got myself into this shit." He admits. "I just want Parmen dead."
"I know." We drive off and follow the helicopter.

I pull up. I am at the land sight. Only a few miles from my hotel. It is on top of a smaller manufacturing building somewhere hidden away by trees. I walk up some steps on the side of the building. I see the helicopter coming. So far so good. I get their and stand. I wait patiently. My body somewhat shivers in anger but I stand composed. So far so good. The forces of the helicopter propellers cause a windy ambiance. The pilots go on loud speaker. "Parmen sir, we're ready to land on your orders."
I nod to them and step back so that they can land. Then I hear a racket. Then another.
"We've been hit!" one pilot shouts. The helicopter looses traction.
I hear bullets meeting metal. The propellers spin out of distortion. The system collapses. I hear another clamor and my pilots explode along with my ride to safety.
More flames? I am sick of fire. I look at my burnt arm. And explosion. I tighten my fists. My pulses are pumping. And this Alex. I already figure he is trying to keep me from a common getaway. Good.
"Parmen freeze. You are under arrest." It's the voice of Cleitus.
"Police will be swarming your hideout any minute now. They will know what you have done." Says Roxanne.
I turn to them. Cleitus, Roxanne, Tolem, Leon, Crater, Archus, Perdicas and Cassy. All guns at me and all aligned. I shrug. "Under arrest you say? Who authorizes?" I challenge.
"We do." Cleitus responds.
"Well then what of Phillip and Olympias. They were apart of this business as much as I."
Cleitus smirks. "Remember, you had your men kill them. There is no more proof. Both Olympian and the Philippos buildings have been destroyed completely. The police came and are checking their areas. Everything was demolished. Nothing exists. Phillip and Olympias are dead to the world now. Antipater is clever however. He sent all the blame in your direction, fled the city and now the police are on their way to your hideout. You have three options. You can come with us, you can go with the city police or you can die."
I laugh. Bastards. I shake my head. Very clever of them I must admit. I walk around hands in pocket.
They lift their weapons on my movements.
"Well then, why don't you kill me?" I offer. "You have every advantage." I lift my arms encouraging them to shoot.
I feel a weapon at the back of my head. I lift my hands in the air slowly. He moves quickly. I am impressed. "I am worse than what the police can do to you. Did you stop and take a look at who you decided to fuck with." He says.
"Alex once again we meet face to face. It's good to see you." I say.
He steps in front of me and looks into my eyes. "You too Parmen. You are going to pay for your treachery."
I laugh again. "I was counting on you coming after me. All of this was planned." I drop my hands and laugh some more. "You'd think I'd back out before seeing you fucking scream before me while bawling like a little bitch on your knees." His eyes are glaring. "I have plans for you Mr. Alex." I spit. "And I don't intend on leaving here until all my desires are met." I lift a detonator. "You think you are the only witty one here?"
I grin. Alex frowns. "You're going to blow us all up?" he asks.
"No." I shake my head violently. "Just Phai. Phillip claimed him once but me, I own him. There is another sensor in him. This time I designed it to detonate. I have had my fair share of whores, it's okay if he goes. I'll find another more cooperative one."
"How do you plan on getting a new whore if you're dead? You fucking kill Phai and I will take your life six times harder."
Alex just like I expected doesn't back down from the threat. He is hard headed.
"What's the matter Alex? Am I finally getting to your nerves? To get to you, to make you weak, was Phai all along the magic touch. Before any of you can even pull a trigger on me Phai goes boom. So you know my next suggestion. Drop your weapons. Slide them all over to me and Alex bring me Phai. I know he's with you. Tracking devices have a funny way of working. I have the upper hand now pretty boy." I smile with such satisfaction as Alex removes the gun from aiming at my head.

I nod and order my men to loose all weapons. "What of the police Parmen." I ask. "They will arrive soon and we all go to jail."
"I have an escape goat." Parmen snaps. We see his son Phil pull up to the side in his car. He gets out and comes up to us and takes all the weapons from my men and tosses them aside.
"You thought I was dead didn't you Alex."
"Actually I forgot about you. That's how much you are useless to this whole expedition." He hits me in the mouth with the end of the weapon. "Go get Phai and after all this is done we will see who the real worthless one is." Phil says to me. "Or else my dad will push the button and then let him blow. Ashes and ashes he falls down."
A hidden violence is like a verse in my head. I go to my car while my men are being held captive. I was parked far enough away so that they can't see us. I open the door and sit in the front seat. I take a moment for myself. I then look at my beautiful sleeping man. I shake him awake. "Phai?"
He awakens. "Yea. What's going on?"
I look at him. I am sad. I take his arms and feel them. "We have another problem."
He becomes nervous. "What do you mean?" He can tell by the look in my eyes something must be really wrong.
"Parmen put another sensor in you arm. A detonator. I'm sorry. He wants me to give you over to him."
"You're joking right." He falters, frightened.
I shake my head. I rub his arms gently again. "I am so sorry." I voice.
"No!" Phai starts scratching at his arms again. We both see a little red thing blinking through his transparent skin. Tears come down his face. He scratches more trying to tear through his flesh.
"Phai we don't have much time." I steady his hands and arms.
"No Alex, I can't go through it again." He cries. "Please don't make me."
"I know Phai. Trust me though." I take out a knife from my glove department. His blue eyes widen in fear. "Relax. Pretend there is no pain."
He pushes me away and backs up away from me. "Please Alex, I can't. I would rather just die. I am not like you. I can't fight pain." He's shaking.
My sorrow shows through me deeply.
"Trust me please." I say tenderly. I lean in closer to him and he flinches back. I touch his face, feeling the precious water escape his suffering orbs. I kiss him deeply. He fights me first but then returns the kiss back in strive and desperation. I taste his salty lips from tears and engulf him more. I don't want him to suffer anymore. I just want him to be with me forever. I move my mouth away and I let him kiss down my neck. He sucks and bites at it, like he is thirsty for blood. "Bite as hard as you want." I tell him and he nods. "Hold me as tight as you can." He nods again and takes in more deep breaths. His mouth is hot against my neck. He is scared. He is shivering. I concentrate on his arm. I slide the knife where I see the detonator. I rub his skin with it so he gets used to the feel of it. "Are you ready?" I ask. He shakes his head, still tears falling. I hate to do this but he will never be ready.
I pierce the knife into his skin. He flexes. His body tenses. He bites down. He tries not to scream. The knife goes in deeper. I feel it passing through tissue and scraping against bone. He's crying harder. His nails dig in my back. His teeth break through my skin. We are now both bleeding. I move the knife more and cut a little entry where I can reach the red blinking device. I toss the knife and proceed with my fingers. I kiss his shoulder. His teeth get lose at my skin and he's about to pass out. I shake him. I need him awake. He starts pushing away from me. He's beginning to have delusions that I am Parmen and Phil. He starts kicking me away. I grab him hard and try to keep him still and place all my weight over him. I am resting between his legs. I dig my fingers in more. I am almost there. "Get away from me!" he yells. I try my best to hold him down while my fingers search inside him. He scratches at my back causing long deep cuts. He tries to snatch his arm away but I am stronger and keep it still.
He closes his eyes and I finally pull the bloody device out. He's breathing heavily. His heart is louder than ever. I bring my lips to his and kiss him again. "I am not Phil or Parmen. Because they don't love you." He kisses me back.
"I don't want to go back to them." he says.
"We're not I promise." I hurry and wrap up his arm. I take him and hide him some where they won't find him. I am assuming Parmen is wondering what is taking me so long.
"Wait here Phai. I'll be back."
He just smiles. I smile back.
I get up and go back to where they were. They see that I don't have Phai with me.
"Where is he?"
"He escaped."
I hid the device so that they would think Phai headed off somewhere else. Parmen shows no mercy and hits the detonator and we see the explosive go off somewhere in the trees. Parmen smiles. "No more of that whore."
I look down. Parmen comes to me and grabs me. "Have you slept with him. He was good wasn't he? So wanton and so needy. Just like any drugged up slut."
I spit in his face. He simply wipes it away and he looks at the rest of the team. "How about you all join me instead?"
"Fuck you." They all say.
"Wrong answer. Phil?"
"Yes father."
"Kill Alex in front of them all."
I close my eyes. I get to my knees as Phil brings the gun to my head. "How does it feel Alex, to be in a situation most men usually are at yours? Are you scared?"
I shake my head. "No. Just do it."

I stand at a high-level of the building. I have the rifle that was in Tolems car. My heart beats like fire. My mind screams like the wind. My body moves like water. I pull one trigger. A bullet flies. I pull another. This day I promised revenge. Let this just end. I drop to the ground. The weapon falls with me.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I hear the sound of two bullets. They passed by sending a sound of amusement in my ears. Bodies, they fall down. I open my eyes. Phil hits the ground. I hear the sound of the police. Parmen hits the ground. Thank you Phai.
I get up. They are both still not dead just badly injured. Phil had a bullet in between his ribcage. I grab Phil, take his gun and I am about to shoot him in the face when my team tell me not to. Cleitus takes a hold of Parmen.
"Stop Alex. The police are coming and they can deal with the two of them." He says to me.
"I promised Phai we would kill them both." I say.
"Another time. Please sir."
I glare. I am struggling from pulling the trigger. Everything they done to him they don't deserve to live.
"Alex, don't." I hear a soft voice. I turn to see Phai standing there holding his arm, while Cassy and Tolem were supporting him to stand. "I don't care anymore. Killing them won't change the way I feel." I get angry and I turn and punch Phil in the face beating it until his eyes shut as he blacks outs. His blood on my fists. I then get up and go to Parmen. I take him by the collar. "If I ever hear from you again, I will hunt you merciless. Do you fucking understand me?" I yell at him.
The old man spits out blood. The bullet Phai shot is near his heart. "The police are here already. You are going to be arrested too." He chokes on blood. He spits more out.
"No we won't." I smile dangerously. "Just you and your son. You won't say anything to the police about any of this, because you know I will come for you if you do. You care too much about your fucking money and drugs to risk your own damn life. So be smart. And here is the thing." I lean in closer to him. "Phai might want to not kill you but I am not afraid to kill a child, do you understand me. I will massacre you."
"You complete him then?" Parmen says grinning trying to intimidate me.
"Phai?" I nod smirk. "You bet your ass I do."
I get up. The police pull up and get out of their cars with guns surrounding us all. A cop moves to Phil and Parmen and aim their weapons at them. Cleitus, Cassy and Roxanne stay behind to deal with the cops. The rest of us faked being the innocent bystanders and captives. It worked out better than I thought but it wouldn't last. I am assuming I have taken about five hundred and sixty eight long breaths just in this day alone.
I watch Phai. He is sitting in an ambulance truck wrapped in a blanket. I go to him. "How are you feeling?" I ask.
"Like shit but they say I will live." He looks away from me ashamed.
"It's okay I am not angry?" I tell him about his decision.
"I've killed many Alex. Before I met your dad I was never this vengeful. I just couldn't let you do it."
"Why?"
"Because I am worried for you. Some have hearts, some have egos and some are just empty. You have all of it."
"Yea well, it happens to people. Some can't escape it."
"Like you."
I nod.
"I wish I was just as cruel as you are." He says to me.
"No you don't, anyway Parmen isn't going to say a word. Cleitus is coming up with a back up story." We both decide to change the subject.
"What story can possibly back this up?" Phai asks. "We don't look like regular people Alex. We look like professionals who know what they are doing. They are going to take us in and question us."
"No they are not."
We hear more cars pull up. It was the F.B.I. I smile at Phai subtly. We see Barsine step out of a car dressed in F.B.I. gear. "We can take it from here gentlemen." She holds up her badge and shows it to the police along with her other men. "Leave these men to us."
"We are going to have to question the rest of them." A cop informs her. "It's protocol."
"Okay let me make it clearer, leave everything to us." She says and signals her own men to arrest my team. "Get them out of here."
The police don't argue and start to clear out. Parmen is angry. He gets put in the back of a car along with his son.
Phai looks a bit cynical as he watches as Parmen stares at him through the car window.
"Phai just look at me and only me okay?" I tell him. He nods his head and stares into my eyes until the car with Parmen in it, drives away. The rape changed him. The violence changed him. And I am so sorry.
Barsine comes up to me and Phai. She raises an eyebrow smirking. We both look at her. "So Alex since I am saving your life again, this means you owe me big time."
I smile. "Barsine, this is Phai."
"Hi." He replies shyly. I frown at him. This is not the Phai I remember. I want him back. And I know just the thing to get him back.
"Holy shit he's gorgeous." She says.
"Yea I know." Phai blushes. "He and I have to be somewhere." I tell her.
"Uh you two are not going anywhere until your injuries are seen to. You both look like shit." She says.
Both Phai and I take a good look at each other. We suffered through these bullshit times. We've lived through these bullshit times. And now we must celebrate. "Fine we don't have to be anywhere specific. Barsine can you please excuse us for an hour or just depending on how long I last?" I ask nicely. "Oh and keep the paramedics away because we are going to be occupying this vehicle."
She's confused. "Uh for what Alex. I am sick of doing you favors all the time you high maintenance little bitch. I never get anything in return." She whines.
"Pants are about to drop." Phai says grinning explaining it all.
"Come again?" she asks.
My smile brings more fire. I am going to rock the fuck out of him. "I am going to fuck him now. Can you please go?" I say clearly so that she never forgets. And I am going to fuck him so that he doesn't forget who really fucking cherishes him. Parmen, Phil and my dad damaged him. I am going to cure him.
"What….you two…are like together?" her mouth drops.
We both nod smiling like innocent angels. She's shocked. She wants to say something but she can't. She walks away. Good. Goddamn she's annoying.
I grab Phai and start downing his mouth. He grabs the back of my head and brings me closer. This is my world. I grab his thigh. He is mine. He moans and throws his head back the more my hand moves near his cock. He wraps his legs around me and my lower region meets with his. He thrusts wanting more of me. "Take me Alex. Only you. I want only you in me." He says through pleasuring breaths. He ignores the pain in his body. I ignore the pain in mine. I lift his shirt and kiss down his stomach. I kiss his wound. He scoots further back into the ambulance giving me room. I am excited. I jump inside like I am on a mission. Phai unzips his jeans. I grab the doors to shut them but Barsine stops me.
"Fucking killing the moment bitch, what do you want?" I yell at her angrily.
She smirks. "Phai it was nice to meet you. But don't do anything wrong and fuck up this relationship or else he is going to cut all of your hair off. From experience. I'm his ex by the way. And I warn you. You have really nice hair. Don't throw it away for this douche nozzle. Later." She skips away.
Phai looks at me with a worried expression and feels his hair just to make sure it's all still their. "Alex you don't cut peoples hair do you?"
I thought she learned her lesson. This is not going to end well for her. I take out a knife. "Hold on Phai. I will be right back."
Just a day later
Alex clears his throat. I smile. "How are you?" I ask him. We are sitting at the village in, three in the morning. We are searching through our menus a nice waitress handed us. Why we chose this time to come and eat was beyond us.
"Fine." He says and smiles back at me. "You?"
I roll my eyes. "Okay." I answer and scan through the menu. "So what of your parents?"
Alex pushes the menu aside and leans in, fingers crossed and stares at me.
"They fled to Hawaii. They are starting a living out there aswell as their new business in California. Antipater is in Florida right now with Cassy dealing with Parmen and his parole. Cleitus retired and became a sports teacher at a school back at his hometown. Tolem is working at game stop just for shits and giggles. Perdicas and Leon, went to New York, Leon became a photographer there and Perdicas is a stay at home husband."
"Interesting. What of the rest?"
"Crater is a body guard for famous celebrities; Archus is a financial instructor at an art school. Roxanne is a martial arts teacher and Barsine is a certified stripper."
"Wow. Very interesting."
"Yea I suppose." He looks at his menu again. The waitress comes by and she is ready to take our orders.
"Yes maam." I say. "I would like to have the Sante Fe breakfast burrito, with chicken and a side of salsa with no guacamole please."
She smiles and blushes at me. "And you sir?" she asks Alex.
"I would like one sausage, one bacon. Two easy over eggs. A large side of smiley faced pancakes, not plain but make it blueberry and the largest cater of orange juice you have please, with a side of hot chocolate. Thank you."
"Uh okay, the food will be with you shortly." She's looking at him weird. We hand her back the menus. She takes the orders of more people.
I smile and shift nervously. I am concerned about Alex.
"So Alex you have been looking a little dead lately. Did you ever go to the doctor like I said you should?"
"Uh no. But I am fine." He replies.
"You got shot like seven times. I doubt your fine."
"I'm walking aren't I? I can take care of myself." He's getting grumpy.
"Sure you can. Until you die one day and I never here from you again." I say under my breath.
"Don't worry about it." He says.

We sit in silence until our food comes and it does. We pick up our forks and knives. We place our napkins in our laps. We eat. We are half way finished until we hear people bust through the doors. Phai and I are sitting in the back of the inn. I look at him and he looks at me. He looks at me because he doesn't care about the place being robbed but for my health.
"Everybody, don't move!" The robbers threaten and they pull a gun to the cashier telling her to empty it out. She does. The rest of the men go around the restaurant and aim guns at the families. There weren't much people in the restaurant, around fifteen individuals, probably why they chose to rob it in the first place. I can't seem to escape danger. It sticks to me like a natural scent.
People start to scream. The intruders then threaten the people to empty their wallets. One man comes to our table. We don't look at him and just at each other.
"You did see the doctor didn't you?"
"No Phai. Stop asking." I pick at my food with my fork.
"You two take out your wallets and empty them!" the robber yells at us.
"And." Phai focuses on me. "What is the month babe?"
I stop eating and look up at him. "It is July twenty seventh." I answer.
He shakes his head and looks down. "No Alex. It is October twenty seventh." He looks back up. "The doctor told me you weren't okay. He says you been in the month of July for the passed five years."
"So what does that mean?" I ask. I already know. I am fucked up. Messed up in the head.
"That you are already dead?"
I nod in acceptance. "Oh okay. What did the doctors say about you?"
"That I am delusional and I am imagining you right this very minute. You died yesterday. They found you in your bed non responsive Alex."
"Hey you two did you hear me!" the man with the gun shouts louder.
Phai takes his napkin and wipes one small tear from his eye. "Please tell me you are real."
I shrug and look out the window. "Let's find out."
The man clicks his weapon. "Are you idiot's deaf? Take out your fucking money!"
Phai and I both look at him. Phai picks up his fork and stabs the man in his cock. The man screams. Phai gets up and takes the weapon from his hand and shoots him in the chest. The man falls back.
One man shoots at me but I keep walking. I grab one guy and kick him in the mouth and face and then break his forearm removing the muscle from the elbow tissue.
Phai kicks a gun from one mans hand. He takes another fork and stabs it in his head right above the eye. He drop kicks him.
I make sure all the men get wiped unconscious. We leave them there for when the cops come. We leave the people in the restaurant shocked and speechless. Phai is distressed. His eyes are glossed over with water. He walks towards the bathroom. He looks at me and I know he wants me to follow. I wipe my face with the napkin that has some mans blood on it. I ignore my throbbing shoulder where a bullet now rests. I follow him. He enters. I turn facing the people. I then smile. I enter and close the bathroom doors.
Dangerous times end but they will soon be back.

Thanks everybody for reading and reviewing. Especially Angstman. It's been great to share this story with you all. Sadly it has ended. I will give a lollipop to the person who knew there was something wrong in the very first chapter. Thank you all again.
