Jake watched as Donghae turned to leave...

Go on Hyukjae! Do something!

But he saw Donghae's fingers gripping the door handle with a look of fury on his face. Finally Donghae left, banging the door shut behind him. The force was strong enough to rattle the frame.

Wow.

Jake gave himself a couple of seconds to stare at the door in pure astonishment. Then he got up unsteadily, and grabbed his pistol, which was still loaded with three more bullets. He carefully kept it on the table and walked toward the huge French windows. Pulling the curtains aside, he saw blinking networks of multicoloured globes of light, stretching away into the New York skyline. They winked back at him from below, as if accusing him of the way he was treating Donghae.

He deserves it. So what if that motherfucker hates me now? I fucking hate his shit too!

Jake snorted and looked sideways when he heard the door click open. It was Luca, coming to stand behind him with a slight polite cough.

"What is it?" sighed Jake without turning, his fingers playing with the latch of the window.

Luca didnt answer right away, and this struck Jake as odd, because Luca was never someone to beat around the bush. He turned to face the big bodyguard and saw him holding a bottle of iced Gold Labels. Jake looked at it, and then back at Luca, who sighed.

"Drink" he said, pushing the bottle into his hand, "Drink and then listen to me"

Jake smiled and kept the bottle on the table, he was feeling drunk without drinking, and that was more than what he could bear at the moment.

"Get on with it Luca" snapped Jake and there was a clear ring of annoyance in his voice.

"I got a call from DeMeo while you were out" said Luca, fumbling with his car keys, "He wants to hold a meeting tomorrow with you if you give your consent"

"About?" asked Jake who was not in a mood for being generous.

"Well" said Luca hasitatingly, "He said it was top secret"

Jake looked down and gave a low laugh, "fine, schedule it to 8"

Luca bowed, "I will inform him and Donghae"

Luca saw Jake visibly flinching at the mention of Donghae's name.

Luca walked towards the door and turned back, "you know what Mr. Maranzano? You really do need a shower"

***********

Mornings had never looked so bright, it was not yet 8, but the annoying sulight kept directly falling on his face. Donghae sat up on his bed and caught the sight of himself from the mirror that was placed parallel to the bed. His hair had gone haywire and his eyes looked like he's been living off drugs for a couple of years. He quickly got up and crawled towards the mirror,

'How did I even get my clothes on?' he wondered as he gazed at the white oversized shirt and shorts he was wearing. He was furiously whipping his hair off his face when he suddenly remembered what exactly happened the previous night.

"Good one Donghae" he muttered to himself while looking at the mirror, "serves that self centred prig right!"

Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door and Donghae sprang up to open it. Luca was standing on the other side with and extremely irritated look on his face.

"Dont tell me" he began before Donghae could get a word in himself, "that you've forgotten what I told you about getting ready before 8?"

"It might've just slipped from my mind" said Donghae sheepishly, without opening the door to let Luca in.

"You know the Boss happens to have an awful temper right?" said Luca dissaprovingly, and Donghae rolled his eyes at him.

"Fine I'll be there! Just give me 5 minutes!" said Donghae, slamming the door shut on Luca's face.

Luca was still standing near the door when he came out, 15 minutes later with wet hair and neat black clothes. The bodyguard stood looking calm, but there was a big smirk on his face which meant only one thing, trouble.

"I've been timming you" said the buff Italian clicking on the phone.

"You know I litterally didn't mean like 5 minutes right?" said Donghae slightly panting as he gave some last second adjustments to his shirt

Luca didn't say anything but started walking ahead, with Donghae following at his heels trying to adjust the wrist buttons on his black shirt. Suddenly he felt his phone vibrate. Glancing over at Luca, Donghae carefully picked up his phone and saw that it was a text from Cosa Nostra.

For a moment, he wondered what 'on loccation' meant, but he quickly deleted the message before they stopped infront of Jake's room.

Two maids bowed low and opened the door for them. Luca went in first but Donghae hesitated, deciding that it was better to stay outside. He leened on the wall, facing the double doors that stood in front of him.

Suddenly the doors opened and Luca stepped out, for a moment everything slowed down for Donghae when Jake walked out of the room. He was wearing a royal blue suit with the same blue watch Donghae remembered him wearing before. For a split second Jake's tranquil eyes met Donghae's own, before passing smoothly away from his, as if he'd never existed, as if he was nothing but a speck of dust down the wrong hallway. If he'd felt anything of the way Donghae had shouted at him the previous night, Hyukjae didn't show it as he walked right past him without a second glance.

Sighing, Donghae followed them through the glass archway that connected the two towers of the massive hotel, watching as Jake and Luca talk to each other in low voices and Jake checking the papers from the file which Luca had been carrying. In truth it was frustrating, but Donghae felt that Jake wouldn't be forgiving him anytime soon.

They entered a hall which was circular, with many statues of ancient sculptures staring back at them all with depressed looking faces. The sunlight filtered lazily through the huge window arcs those were on each side of the massive hall. Glancing up, Donghae saw the entire glass dome at the top decorated with colorful pieces of broken glass. It was a Falcon, it's wings blazing with fire...it was beautiful...

As Donghae watched, black clad bald men in full suit came through the doors and stood at either sides of the room in perfect intervals with their weapons shining brightly in the sunlight. Donghae saw Jake sit down in a luxurious oxblood sofa, tapping away at his phone, apparently oblivious to the arrival of these armed gaurds.

After a few seconds, they unmistakably heard the sound of a shuttle landing on the huge balcony that swirled across from the hall.

Donghae saw Jake glance at his watch and back at Luca who gave him a small nod. The door of the gleaming shuttle smoked open and DeMeo stepped down the stairs, clutching his briefcase tightly to his chest as if it weighed a ton.

"Ah Maranzano" said DeMeo, walking into the hall with his men who positioned themselves protectively around him. "I heard you were injured during an attack-"

"That, was taken care of DeMeo" said Hyukjae, his voice deadly calm.

"Yes" agreed DeMeo hastily, "I heard its a minor gang"

Jake twirled the ring on his middle finger that Donghae hadn't noticed him wearing before.

"Minor gangs?" said Hyukjae, "what makes you think so?"

DeMeo hesitated, "well" he said after a few seconds, "we all know Falcon Circle owns the commands"

Jake shook his head slightly, looking thoughtful,

"They were far too organized for that" he said softly, "the question is why did they want him in the first place" he said jerking his head at Donghae for the first time.

DeMeo turned to look at him, and Donghae felt his insides churning with nerves.

"Did they threaten you?" asked DeMeo and Donghae shook his head, feeling like something was stuck in his throat.

"I have a feeling that some of them are having trouble staying down now" said Jake a sarcastic smile.

"You don't think it's them do you?" asked DeMeo suddenly while Hyukjae glanced up.

"No" said Luca while looking at Jake's eyes, "they went down 15 years ago, and Leonard apparently killed their leader"

"Wait! your father killed the leader of Cosa Nostra?" asked DeMeo turning to Jake, and Donghae visibly blanched.

Hyukjae shrugged, "that's what I heard" he said giving an uninterested look. But DeMeo was looking far from being uninterested, he was slightly shaking and finally Jake glanced at him.

"What's wrong?" he asked incredulously while DeMeo hastily opened his briefcase,

It was not a briefcase at all as Donghae imagined, it was a Computer with many wires and stuff protruding from almost everywhere.

"This is bad Jake" he said, his fingers flying through the keyboard. "Did you even care about checking your mails?"

"No" said Jake looking directly at Donghae, although his eyes didn't look friendly at all, "I had some stuff to do"

"Look at this! I thought this guy was dead!"

Jake looked at the man in the photo and for a second, Donghae saw his eyes widening.

"I want him on screen DeMeo" said Jake curtly and Demeo gave a small nod, his fingers already tapping away. After a few seconds the huge display behind them lit up.

Donghae saw a very thin man with a nervous smile appear on the screen. Luca instantly took a sharp breath.

"But I saw him die!" he said, looking at the picture.

Demeo glanced at his sleek watch,

"Avian! Give us a full sweep of his data" said DeMeo in a clear voice.

Suddenly a digitalized voice started a commentary from the speakers.

"Antonio Galway, business figure, age 57, recognised as a double agent working both for the Falcon Industries and also the Cosa Nostra, 128 criminal offence charges and hatpin of the Galway Incorperation. Discovered dead 15 years ago on 12.01 at 2.13 a.m on a private residence in Shanghai after betraying Falcon Global to Cosa Nostra, biometric facial data recorded and stored."

"Watch this" said DeMeo and turned back to the watch, "play video 11 and compare the biometic data of Antonio Galway"

On the huge screen, the word 'processing' appeared. After a few seconds a video began playing, a man's face was visible from one of the windows of a building and after sometimes, it vanished.

"Scanning complete" said the voice and Donghae jumped, accidently stepping on Luca's shoes, but he didn't seem to notice it. He was busy staring at the screen if he'd seen a ghost.

"Scan results match with the target at 24% casualty rate."

"Good work Avian" said DeMeo and turned to Hyukjae and Luca, "that's sure to be him" he said, "he was seen 5 days ago from a room in Galway industries.

"So he is not dead is he?" mused Jake softly, and Luca glanced at him.

"What else did you find on him?" asked Jake with a dangerous look in his stormy blue-gray eyes and DeMeo search through his laptop.

"The latest result we have is Galway Industries' latest acquisition of Air Force One type Jet from the last month, and our scans caught them testing it and it's scheduled to arrive at a Denmark private villa by 12th of July at 1.10 am PST also we caught coded messages travelling back and forth between Galway Incorperation and US army.

"Are these from Avian?" asked Hyukjae with a slight smile and DeMeo swelled with pride.

"Avian AI technology has a seemeless hacker and tracker technology" he said, "it means that Cosa Nostra is definitely active and Antonio is trying to wriggle out from here to Denmark with the help of the Forces.

"I agree with DeMeo this time" said Luca, "we need a plan to stop that rat from getting out of the country. I have a few questions to ask from him"

"Um" said Donghae and everyone turned towards him, Jake looking as if he saw him here for the first time. Donghae ignored him and turned to Luca.

"Well incase if anyone hadn't notice, today is 11th" said Donghae, nerves stretching inside his chest with too much pressure.

"God damn it!" swore DeMeo, "Its true!"

Jake looked thoughful for a second, and looked at the briefcase and the watch.

"You say Avian can hack right?" he asked from DeMeo who nodded distractedly.

"It's the basics for Avian, the AI is controlled according to my voice patterns" he muttered and Jake gave a nodd.

"Link my control over Avian for a few hours" said Jake and DeMeo looked as if somebody had asked him to go and live in space.

"This is sacred technology Maranzano!" he screeched, "I cannot hand down a 7.2 million USD tech recklessly!"

"Fine" said Jake and turned to Luca, "transfer 7.2 mil to DeMeo labs"

"Got it" said Luca and tapped his phone.

"W-What a-are you doing?" spluttered DeMeo weakly and Jake gave him a killer smile,

"Buying from you" said Jake calmy.

"Done!" said Luca and Jake scanned his finger print for verification.

"You can't do this Maranzano!" shouted DeMeo and Jake shook his head.

"I dont know what you're shouting for DeMeo" said Jake smiling, "you are a rich man now arn't you? Stop whinning and give me full control"

"No" said the man but Jake pulled his pistol and pressed it on his neck, clicking the bullet into place.

Imidiately the guards surrounding DeMeo raised their pistols at him. Donghae pulled his own pistol but Luca gently pushed his hand down, shaking his head.

"I would hate to make Cecily cry DeMeo, so transfer the control NOW!" shouted Jake.

"be it on your head Maranzano!" said the man and held up his hand to the guards who lowered their waepons. He finally spoke to the watch,

"Avian, I need you to transfer all control to Jake Maranzano"

"This will delete all voice patterens from me Doctor DeMeo are you sure to confirm?" asked the static voice with a tinge of concern.

DeMeo looked down and sighed, "confirm" he said slowly and took off the watch and placed it in Luca's hand.

Jake took it from him and put it on to his palm, "hey Avian" he said and the dial lit up,

"Jake Maranzano leader of Falcon Global and Industries, bometric scan and voice pattern recorded. Welcome" said the synthesized voice immidiately.

"Thats me" said Hyukjae cheerfully, "I need you to hack into Galway industries."

After a few minutes the dial lit up again, "access gained"

"Great!" said Jake and Donghae saw a look a pure amusement cross his face as if he got the best toy in the world...well the world's most dangerous toy...

"Do you detect an Air Force One there?" asked Jake and the watch vibrated in his palm.

"Detected" it said, "sceduled flight to Denmark at 7.15 PST, passengers unknown"

"Ok" said Jake and directly looked at Donghae, "you are coming with me" he said and Donghae just looked at him with a breezy expression.

"Oh by the way DeMeo" said Jake looking at the glowering man, "Is Avian a girl?"

DeMeo just growled at him and Jake looked back at the guards stationed at either side of the hall,

"Escort this gentleman and his crew out" he said and watched as DeMeo and his guards leave the hall. Before going out, DeMeo turned and gave Jake a raking stare,

"I'm done with you Maranzano!!" he screamed finally, shaking his fists at him to which Jake gave a good natured wave with a big smile on his face. When the double doors closed, Jake turned to both Luca and Donghae,

"You lost 7.2 mil you know? Are you even aware of it?" asked Luca boredly.

Jake smirked, "oh yeah, I lost 7.2 but I'm gaining billions tonight Luca"

"Don't tell me" said Luca, keeping his hand on his forhead, "Galway lndustries?

Jake nodded, "A motherfucking business worth 1.2 billion Euros"

"You got it Boss"

"I certainly did" said Jake with a smirk but Donghae didn't join the celebration, he felt like he was going to vomit on the spot.

Fuck you Hyukjae!

Giving one last disdainful look at Jake who looked back at him in astonishment, Donghae turned at his heels and left. He had another meeting to attend.
