The Enemy's Ignited Fire

Act 1 Scene 18: March 11th. The Headless Dragon Clan's secret headquarters. Al is on the phone with someone.

Al (on the phone): "Yes. That's excellent. Make sure it all comes to this location. I'll talk to you later." Thomas enters Al's office. (to Thomas) "Yes, Thomas. What can I do for you?"

Thomas (clears his throat): "Um... Al. It's about our new help. He bothers me."

Al: "How so? Did he threaten your life?"

Thomas: "No, it's just that ever since I brought him to you; he has done some strange things."

Al: "Like..."

Thomas: "Well, I saw scratches on the floor. He punched holes into the walls and don't get me started on what he did to his bed sheets."

Al: "He's just getting used to his new home. He'll calm down in a matter of days."

Thomas (under his breath): "If I can survive a matter of days."

Al: "What was that?"

Thomas: "Nothing, Al. Nothing at all." Al reaches for his phone. "What are you doing, Al?"

Al: "I'm informing our new helpers to do something for me quickly."

Thomas: "And what is that?"

Al (smiling): "A big surprise for the gated community we all call "home".

Act 1 Scene 19: Elsewhere. The people that Al hired in An Enemy's Growing Army are planting bombs in various buildings. Some others are driving to various locations with all sorts of weaponry.

Al: "Thomas, meet me at the rooftops in 5 minutes."

Thomas: "O...kay." The henchman are lighting the explosives and loading up their guns. One person lit a molotov cocktail and throws it in a house. At the rooftop, Thomas showed up.

Al: "Ah, good. You're here."

Thomas: "Why are we on the roof?"

Al: "Watch this." He reaches for his phone and sends his henchmen a text to start the "party". Thomas is hearing screams, gunfire, explosions and sirens.

Thomas: "Holy s-t! You planned this whole thing."

Al: "I did, my friend. Oceanview and its citizens must pay for their sins. They betrayed us for the last time. The Ninjas have to pay as well. They refused to kill the people who hurt me. I found that as an insult."

Thomas: "I didn't know that your hate was so powerful."

Al: "This "party" is only step one of our revenge."

Thomas: "What step two then?"

Al: "You'll know soon enough, my friend. You'll know soon enough."

The End... for now.
