《Vegas Sushi》17. Sheek
Advertisement
When Manny had finished telling Gates all that had happened. Gates realized Sunny was walking into a death trap.
Gates called his former partner at the Las Vegas Police department, Hector Badger, who everyone called Weasel.
"You ready for the FBI, Weasel," said Gates.
"You calling just to fuck with me, Gates," said Weasel.
"I'm sure they'll take after you bring down the Singrin."
"Singrin. You know we cant touch it."
"Ivan's dead, Weasel and with him gone there's no Federal Laws protecting that place from the LVPD. You can find his body somewhere between Vegas and Heaven on I95. Don't ask me how that's your job to figure it out. I'm only a concerned citizen calling in a tip.
"But the Singrin is a fortress we can't get in."
"You leave that to me. Just be ready when the doors open."
"I'll be there," said Weasel.

Gates looked at Manny.
"Sunny's in trouble and I have to get into the Singrin."
"I know how," said Manny.
Manny called his brother Charon who worked for the Nevada Water Reclamation Dept.
They drove out to east to Industrial Park. There they found Charon waiting.
Charon said he could take Gates into the Singrin through the underground swear tunnels.
They went through an underworld taht looked like a demonic Wonderland.
They soon came up to a cesspool. Charon told gets to swim through and he'd find the Singrin at the other side.
***
When Gates got to the Singrin from the underwater tunnel. He found himself a in a security room and there was a security guard inside.
"Hey man the place is on fire," said Gates.
"The guard left to investigate and Gates went in," he found the button to the main door and pressed it. there was Weasel and LVPD waiting to drive in.

There was another boom and the Singrin shook again. People were running scared for their lives, to avoid being arrested, or to just get out of the Singrin.
Gates wondered where Sunny could be. He looked at all the security cameras and saw her in one of the sex rooms where she was fighting with a man.
"Sheek," said Gates.
***
Sunny had arrived at the Singrin and was escorted by security to a room where Sheek was waiting. When Sheek saw her he about fell over. He felt an incredible jolt of electricity.
Sheek had his arm in a bandage. His face looked a bit deranged and he had crazed look in his eye.
"Hi Sunny, I'm glad you made it," said Sheek.
"Sheek what happened to you,"
"I took some bad shit, Sunny. Some real bad stuff."
Sunny was cautious. Sheek was not the same warm party guy she had met before. He looked like a street demon. Sunny had her hand on the gun in her purse.
"Can I get you a drink," Sheek said.
"I really got to get the fish, Sheek," said Sunny.
"Come on just one drink with an old friend."
"Sure," said Sunny.
Sheek gave her a glass of scotch. Sunny was sure it was drugged. She pretended to take a sip.
"So how long has it been, Sunny."
Sunny could not stop staring at Sheek mutilated arm.
"I know really sick right."
"Are you in pain," said Sunny.
"No I'm on some excellent pain killers." Sheek slurred his words. His head started to shake.
"Listen, can I see the fish, Sheek," said Sunny.
"Sure Sunny I'll get it," said Sheek.
Sheek disappeared and then came back holding it. It was brass plated koi fish about the size of a football.

"If you want it there's one thing you got to do for me," said Sheek.
"What," said Sunny.
"Sleep with me, Sunny. It's what I've been after all this time. Rico knew it that's why he would' let me near you," said Sheek.
"But you said you were going to give it to me," said Sunny.
"I lied, never trust a junkie, Sunny."
Sheek put the fish down. He went up to Sunny.
She told him to stay back and she pulled out her gun.
Sheek laughed. Then Sheek saw his other Sheek hallucinations all around the room.
"I got to have you Sunny," Sheek said and his face turned demonic.
"Sheek your crazy," said Sunny and she pulled out her gun.
Sheek was quick and hit the gun out of her hand. He threw Sunny against the wall and Sunny ran into another room.
Sheek and his hallucinations went after her.
Sunny locked herself in the bathroom but Sheek began punching the door. He was mad, he felt no pain. He fist was bloody and yet he kept punching the door.
"Sunny!" he screamed.
Sheek broke through door by kicking it off its hinges. He threw Sunny down then grabbed her the back of her dress and dragged across the room to the bed.
He lifted her up with one arm. She fought him on the bed. She sat up and Sheek punched her in the face. She fell back dizzy. Her lipstick smeared across her pale white face.
Sheek climbed on top of Sunny. She begged him to stop.
"Sheek don't do this," said Sunny. But Sheek had caught his prey. Sunny screamed bloody murder.
***
Gates heard the screams and charged the room.
He pulled Sheek off Sunny.
Sheek was high on PCP. He charged Gates like bull. Hitting him in the face.
Gates blacked out. When he came too he was smashing Sheek's bloody head into the floor.
"Gates stop it! Its over," Sunny said. She wrapped her arms around Gates and he woke up. "It's over."
Gates looked down to the floor at Sheek lying dead.
"I did that?" said Gates. He had not remembered a thing. Sunny nodded and kissed him. The Singrin shook again.
"Look what I got," said Sunny and she showed him the fish.
"We got to get out of here," said Gates.
The SinGrin was burning down. Everyone was being evacuated for it was going to pop like a big fire cracker.
Sunny and Gates ran out of the inferno and were met by firemen who had fire blankets and oxygen masks.
They were escorted to an ambulance and they all along with everyone else in Vegas watched the Singrin explode and the police clapped.
Weasel could only smile. He'd been trying to bring down the Singrin for ages.
Manny pulled up in the limo. He got out and opened the door for Sunny and Gates.
Sunny looked around for the Cadillac.
"Where's the Cadillac?"
"I'm letting the king borrow it for a while." said Gates.

Embers in the Ash
Four ordinary young people from four corners of the Earth wake up on a hill in another world. Here, their very presence is a crime against the Gods. On the fringes of civilization, life is often brief and always violent, but in the Empire's Heartland, implacable hunters seek to rectify their blasphemous existence with Blade and Fire. To return home, they will need to adapt to a place where their life will be earned in steel. But what will they be ready to sacrifice for their goal? Will their flame flicker out like so many others before them? Or will they thrive as Embers in the Ash? Hello, and welcome to my first fiction on this site! Embers in the Ash is an epic fantasy adventure story that aims to span quite a few chapters (I hope!). To set expectations, this isn't going to be a LitRPG or power fantasy-style story. I'm aiming for a fairly grounded story set in a fairly high-fantasy world. I hope you enjoy it! For this first month of publication, my aim is to give you, the reader, something to really bite into. I will be releasing a chapter every day at 9:15 AM EST (13:15 GMT), as well as the occasional double chapter (which will always be announced by a post-chapter author blurb). Check in fifteen minutes after the first chapter's release! After this first month of publication, the aim is to go for either a weekly or bi-weekly release schedule, depending on the sort of time I can reliably dedicate to writing. Either way, settle in for the long haul, and welcome to the story!

8 223Chronicles of Rathia - The Era of Blood
Welcome to the Chronicles of Rathia. Contained within is a trilogy of stories which are all set in different time periods and with different characters. Each story has its own era from The Era of Blood, The Era of Magic and The Era of Demons. Read along the first in the series which is The Era of Blood where magic is still in an infant stage and where swords can dominate the battle field. In The Era of Blood, you follow along the first main character who had his memories wiped clean except for the most basic things in life. It is up to him to find out how to get his memories back and why they are gone. (If you don't like the story layout or characters, I suggest either just reading through or wait till the next one in the series is being released. With how it's set up, you can enjoy any of the three in the trilogy but of course reading in order will help give a better understanding of the world.) (Side authors note - I'm currently reworking the first several chapters as they are lacklustre to myself since they were originally a draft and not concrete at first. This note will stay here until all the chapters I wanted to fix up are done.)
