Eddie walks out into the club's campsite. The field is empty of life, almost like a scene from a horror film. Eddie has a cup of coffee in his hand, as he walks down the line of parked motorcycles, slowly heading off towards the Campfire area. He sat down on the log seat. Still aching for his match, from the night before.
"So this is what it has come down to. Once again I find myself isolated, not out of choice. I told Cole and Cade to watch their backs. That Tuck wasn't to be trusted. I only went for a ride, came back to find the last of the sheriff, checking though the camp for more evidence. Funny how they weren't interested in me or telling what the hell they were looking for. Nor did they want to discuss why they Have taken my whole club away." Eddie take a mouthful of this coffee, as he hears the birds singing in the background.
"Not like I have enough to concern myself, this best of five series, against Tuck. Moving the club stateside, making sure that we have a steady income. Apparently, I need to be thinking for everyone, every second of the day. I have it up to here, Cole made it clear that he was ready for the reasonability of being my second in command. Then it is about time he showed me, he is capable of doing it. I'm beginning to feel like they are thinking this is a holiday. Far from it, it is business as usual."
Suddenly His phone starts to ring, he pulls his phone out of his pocket. He notices he has been a video link. After a few seconds, he decides to play the video.
A camera flicks on, there is a bizarre clown looking figure, sitting on a chair. The room is in total darkness, apart from a small metal lamp sitting to the side of him shining a small beam of light at his head. Footsteps can be heard pacing around the room on the concrete floor
"So here we are Clown." Said a voice from the background.
The Clown is frantically looking around as if he is looking for something or someone.
"So even after all of these years, you do not recognize me? Why would you though!" Stated the voice from the background. The clown is still looking around the darkroom. "Is that you Eddie? Damn, you are so predictable." Commented the Clown, with a huge smile across his face. A loud roar of laughter can be heard ricocheting off the walls. "You know Eddie, He has your number. You can't beat him in the end." Stated the clown in a mocking tone.
Footsteps once again begin to pacing around the room. The clown starts to relax, thinking he has already figured out what is happening. "Oh so you think you have everything figured out, do you?" Asked the voice. "You are here for one reason and only one reason. Like I said. Eddie, you are practicable, he is going to know that you took me. We both know that you don't have it in you to do anything. Your morals always seem to hold you back from making the big calls" explained the clown, mocking his captor while shaking his head.
A figure appears behind the seated man. Dark clothing is the only thing that can be seen from the beam of light from the little lamp. "That is theory is all well and good" whispered the voice into the clown's ear. Suddenly the clown stopped smiling for a moment, before a gloved hand grabbed his green-dyed hair, jerking his backwards. Tilting the chair backwards slightly.
"One problem with your theory. Eddie isn't here to stop me!" Stated the voice. Suddenly the clown started to kick his leg back and forth trying to touch the floor in an attempt to get his balance. Suddenly the chair falls back down onto the floor with all four legs firmly on the ground. The clown takes a deep breath. "It doesn't matter who you are." Stated the clown trying to compose himself.
The footsteps start to move away briefly, before returning again. A face shrouded in shadows appears to the left of the man, the light to the right casting a small amount of light towards the man's full beard. "What are you going to do here!" Asked the clown, trying his best not to face his captor. "You're going to share a story with me" stated the unknown man. "I ain't going to tell you shit!" Said the defiant clown. "You will, just a matter of time" replied the man. "You can't do anything to make me talk," said the clown. The roar of laughter echoes around the room once again.
Suddenly his head is wrenched back once again, The clown clenches the arms of the chair in anticipation of what might happen next."We will have to see about that then." A pair of pliers slowly move down across his face. The pliers are forced in the closed jaw after his head is pulled back yet again. The pliers are forced to one of the man's front bottom needle-like teeth. "So before we start, are you willing to talk?" asked the man. The clown shakes his head in response. The figure twists and pulls the tooth from the jaw. The clown screams in pain and the blood flowing from his lower jaw.
"Now that I have got your full attention we can begin?" Asked the man.
Just behind the man is a sound of tools banging against each other on the concrete floor. The man pulls a long needlelike object from the bag he grabs the clown's left index finger. He proceeds to slowly push the needle underneath the clown's fingernail. The clowns once again scream out in pain. "So tell me about the visit to the farm to meet with the Skulls of Grimm?" Asked the man. The clown looked down at his finger with a corned looked. "No, I won't tell you!" Snapped the clown. Suddenly the needle was pushed slowly a little further under his nail.
"I want to know what the purpose of the visit was," said the man as he slowly moved the need a little to the side, causing the clown to clench his bloody jaw together, resulting in his needle-like teeth piercing his gums. "If you don't talk, then this is only going to get worse" stated the man.
Suddenly the man pushes yet another needle under one of the clown's other fingernails. "FINE. We went there on the purpose of eliminating all the club members." Said the clown, with blood dripping from his bleeding gums. "Why?" Snapped the man as he pulled out the third needle and placed it by the clown's thumbnail. "He wants to leave Eddie with no backup. He wanted to break his spirit, and leave him alone" yelled the clown, while trying to move his thumb. "Why did the sheriff take them all into custody?" Asked the man. "He had some of us plan some drives, in the camp" replied the clown.
Suddenly the needle was throated under the thumbnail. "Child porn, the drive contained child porn!" Screamed the clown. The man stood back for a moment before slowly pulling the needles out, blood flowed from the fingernails on to the cold floor. The figure walked over to the video record grabbing it and heading off into the darkness.
Moments later, what sounded like a heavy metal door creaked as it opened. The feed of the camera came back in to focus in a bright room facing an empty chair. The figure moved towards the chair and sat down. As he leans forward on the chair it is clear as day who has been the man in the shadows, none other than Bobby Kane. He slowly starts to pull a pair of bloodstain gloves from his hands, discarding them to the cold concrete floor.
He sits back on the wooden chair resting his forearms on the arms of the chair. "Hey Bro, Sorry I couldn't make the move Stateside with you. However, I have been following. A good job that I did, I saw this club ride up on to the farm. Then just after they left, a dozen squad cars pulled in. I watched as the Sheriffs drive away with everyone in handcuffs or so I thought" said Bobby.
He leans back in the chair for a moment. "As you have seen, Tuck had organized this whole plan to leave you alone and vulnerable. I have made some calls. The drives do in fact contain some disturbing things. Not one of them has any of the club's fingerprints on them." Stated Bobby
He raises his left wrist up, placing his watch to his ear. "Do you hear that… that should be just about time. Say hi to the rest of the boys. All in good time, I will be joining you all." Bobby added. He reaches forward towards the camera, the camera feed suddenly dies.
Eddie looks up towards the main road to see a couch dropping off a dozen men. His club has finally been released. As they walk from the road down the drive towards the entrance to the field, Eddie notices that they all look worse for wear from their stay in the cells.
Eddie just keeps sitting on the log, as the club members walk into the camp area. Cole and Cade walk towards Eddie. Sitting the other side of the now burnt-out campfire. The rest of the club members start to spread out, clearing up the mess that was left from the impromptu visit. Cade and Cole sit down facing Eddie. Both of them, are expecting to get the book thrown at them.
"So which one of you two, is going to explain this two me?" Asked Eddie. Both of the men raised their heads, briefly looking at each other in surprise. "Well once you left, Tuck turned up with three clowns. He said he was looking for you, he had your share of the money from the bank job" said Cole. "All four members share in sight at all times. As soon as they left the sheriffs turned up and took us all in." Added Cade.
Eddie was sitting with his elbows on his knees, his hands wrapped around his mug of coffee. "Well, I have been informed, that somehow one of the clowns managed to stash drives In the camp, with child porn on them." Stated Eddie.
"I guess we were lucky that you managed to get us out when you did," said Cole. Eddie shakes in response. "No, I didn't know what was going on, lucky for you lot. We have a guardian angel, who watched it all godown. He managed to get to the bottom of it and sort out your release" said Eddie.
"What.. who?" Asked Cade, confused as two it could be. "Bobby has been watching us since we got here," said Eddie as he tipped the cold coffee from his mug. "I don't know where he is, or when he will be back with us" stated Eddie.
Cole briefly looked around the campsite, before focusing back on Eddie. "So what's now?" He asked. "Well I have decided that we need to be smarter than we have, it appears that Gabriel is quite the strategist. Cole, I need you, Liam and Jimmy to get what we need, and start to head to Allentown. Get Jackson to take the prospect and find somewhere to hide out for now" Eddie replied.
Cole stood up and headed off towards one of the tents to talk to Jackson. Cade looked over to Eddie, waiting for his instructions. "I need you to stay by my side. I need to stay focused, match one is done in this series of five. I managed to pick up a huge victory last night, against Gabriel's best efforts to distract me from the task at hand. At least, two more matches to go. I dare say he will come back fighting in the next match, he is going to be desperate to try and pick up a victory this time. I trust him not to try something again" said Eddie. Eddie and Cade stand up heading back towards their tents to gather up their stuff.
"So this is what it has come down to. Once again I find myself isolated, not out of choice. I told Cole and Cade to watch their backs. That Tuck wasn't to be trusted. I only went for a ride, came back to find the last of the sheriff, checking though the camp for more evidence. Funny how they weren't interested in me or telling what the hell they were looking for. Nor did they want to discuss why they Have taken my whole club away." Eddie take a mouthful of this coffee, as he hears the birds singing in the background.
"Not like I have enough to concern myself, this best of five series, against Tuck. Moving the club stateside, making sure that we have a steady income.
