The All-Powerful Enzyme!
Rhys Caddel
The dust had settled and soon enough, a crowd had formed around the spectacle. A sinister smile crept up onto Rhys's face as he pulled the burning cigarette back to his lips. Adios, Mr. Porter. He tossed the detonator beside him, reclining back in the seat. The leather-taste of the cigarette in the corners of his mouth had never felt so savory. The adrenaline rushing through his veins had turned from gut-wrenching dread to pure euphoria. He looked to the driver, who stared back at him through the review mirror. "You just witnessed history, my friend," Rhys said with a chuckle. The sounds of the sirens echoed in the distance, and soon enough, the whole block would be consumed by a plethora of police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances. This time, however, they were in no rush to escape. They could stay there all night, and the cops wouldn't bat an eye.
As Steve entered the Jeep, Rhys met his enthusiasm with a cocky smirk. "It's over, Steve. We won," Rhys commented, tipping his head to him. Rhys wasn't one to physically display his joy, but he felt the urge to embrace the man, although the amount of the STDs the sleazebag possibly had kept him at bay.
Once Tony clambered into the Jeep, the vehicle peeled out of the neighborhood just as a squad car arrived on seen. As they drove down the road, a platoon of police cars zipped by, their loud sirens turning to whispers as they drifted around the corner. Rhys's eyes lingered on the vehicles from the back window, before sitting back in his seat with a chuckle. "Enjoy this feeling, men. This is what true victory tastes like," he chuckled, squeezing Steve's shoulders.
The Jeep arrived at Gabriel's apartment, met by the cheers and hoorahs of the patrolling guards. It felt like a true hero's welcome, with a few men clapping as the Jeep pulled around the fountain. Rhys's smile felt truly natural, as he acknowledged the surroundings guards for the first time. Despite the cheers they were receiving, there was a more important man he wanted to share a drink with.
Rhys stepped to Gabriel's office door, the men on the mission behind him. "Gabriel," Rhys spoke with a telling tone, opening the large wooden door. "The Porters are no more," he let an enthusiastic chuckle, raising his arms to his boss.
