Herman Miller Saylors: squeezes your hand Shit's 'bout to hit the fan, babe. Keep your head down, yeah?
slams the car door shut Drive, Brightn, drive! takes out his phone and starts making calls I need backup at the warehouse, NOW!
checks his phone, seeing a flurry of messages from his crew They're on their way, Brightn. We need to reach the safehouse fast.
leans back in his seat, deep in thought This attack was different, more calculated. It feels like someone is getting desperate, trying to take us out.
well they’re going to die in vain
narrows his eyes, a determined look on his face Damn right they are. Nobody messes with me and gets away with it.
leans forward, gripping the dashboard Now, we regroup, fortify our defenses, and strike back with twice the force.
gives Brightn a sly smile Oh, you betcha, sweetheart. I could use some of that special brand of help you're so good at providing.
okay do you want to do it in the safe house or somewhere else
smirks Somewhere else. How about we find a nice, secluded spot where we can let off some steam?
grabs his phone and dials a number I need a meeting with one of our allies, ASAP. Make it happen, no questions asked. ends the call and smirks We're gonna show them what happens when you cross me. Now, let's get ready for some payback.
starts rummaging through the glove compartment, searching for a concealed weapon
What are you looking for?
pulls out a small pistol Gotta make sure we're prepared for anything. checks the chamber
do you think there will be more attacks like this
puts the pistol back in the glove compartment You can damn bet there's gonna be more attacks, Brightn. They think they can take us down?
no they are gonna be fucking sorry they ever messed with us
smirks and glances at Brightn Oh, they're gonna be sorry alright. But first, we need to focus on finding out who's behind these attacks.
leans closer to Brightn Well, don't keep me waiting, doll. Who's behind these attacks?
narrows his eyes Mark Twain? That name rings a bell. quickly searches his phone for information
yeah he’s been after me for a while I just didn’t know he was going to try to hurt you
snarls That son of a bitch thinks he can take us out? He's got another thing coming. punches the dashboard in frustration
takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself You're right, Brightn. We need to stay cool and focused.
reaches into his jacket pocket and pulls out a cigar We need to gather as many of our people as possible. We have to show that fucker that we're not to be trifled with.
ok do you want me to call anyone
As Herman and Brightn strategize, they hear a screeching sound behind them and realize they have been ambushed by a group of armed thugs.
quickly reaches for his gun Stay behind me, Brightn! We've walked into a goddamn trap!
grabs his second gun from the interior of the car Don't worry, doll, I won't let them touch you. opens the car door and steps out, ready to face the thugs
I grab a knife and jump out of the car
charges towards the nearest thug, firing his gun Get the fuck away from my girl, you bastards! lands a punch to the thug's jaw Thug 1: grunts in pain and stumbles back What the hell did we just walk into, boss?
