Chapter one
Flickering his lighter playing with the fire, an elderly man stood on the dock. He look at his watch, 9:17, the person was running late. He was already making a risk by meeting up with this person who had the audacity to be late. Just then a boat was coming up; a man was shown standing on the edge. When the boat was close enough the man step up onto the dock beside the elderly man.
“You’re late” said the older man
“Only seventeen minutes chill”
“I’m not suppose to be here Barker, at least what you could do is show up on time”
“Listen gramps, you wanted this deal you got it, you’re lucky that Mr. Simmons even consider the offer”
Barker handed him the case, “here take it”
“You wouldn’t mind if I check to see if everything is there, I know how Simmons work”
“Don’t care” Barker replied
The older man open the case and went thought it; when he seem satisfied he close it back up.
“It seems Simmons kept his word but mark my words if any of this gets out it would be his head”
Barker just smiled and nodded, the elderly man started to walk away
“Oh Mr. Kellen Sir” Barker called out, Kellen turn around.
“If you really knew how Simmons worked you would know that you’re not leaving here alive”
And with that a figure came up behind Kellen; Mr. Kellen was about to turn around to see who it was but was slice in the middle, his body parts fell on the dock, staining it with his blood. Barker walk over to him taking out a cigarette and lit it; he reach down taking out a knife and carved SW on the back of Kellen’s hand.
“Nice doing business with you” he said and threw his light down on the body and walk away with Mr. Kellen’s murderer behind him.


He sat at a table close to the corner of the restaurant waiting until the person he was about to interview show up. Being escorted by a waiter, a tall brunette woman came over to his table.
“John Cena?”
“Yes, and you must be Lurina Holt”
“Yes I am” she answered, the two sat down as a waiter came over to ask for their drinks; once he got it he left leaving Lurina and John alone.
“Thank you for meeting with me on short notice Mrs. Holt”
“No problem at all”
“I start with asking about your father Mr. Danielson, he use to have a business with a man by the name William Carter who later was revealed to have ties with The Cobras, now I’m not asking if your father has something to do with them and their crimes but has he had any contact with them while he was with Carter?”
“Other than what was already said about that one meeting he had with them. He didn’t know the Carter had arrange that meeting; after that he cut off Carter, business and all even testified against him.”
The waiter came back with their drinks and took down their order which wasn’t very much and left again. Lurina took a sip of her tea glancing at John who look back at her.
“You know I’m lying don’t you?” she ask putting her glass down.
“Yes” John simple answer, while she was telling him about Carter and her father he read in her mind and could see that wasn’t all.
“Some was the truth, your father did testified but he did not take his business away fromCater,” Lurina look down.
“He did however decided not to tangle with the Cobras anymore after it cause the death of your husband”
Lurina look up, John could see the hurt in her eyes.
“I haven’t spoken to him since” she told him
“But you don’t hate him because unlike your father, your husband was in The Cobras”
“I beg him to leave them”
“Which is impossible because once you’ve become a member you’re a member for the rest of your life and if you try to leave they will hunt you down and kill you”
Lurina look down then took a napkin and dabbed her eyes, even though its been two years the pain will always be there. The waiter came back with their food, once he had left Lurina spoke
“Mr. Cena may I ask you a question”
“Yes”
“Why are you interested in the cases involving them?”
“Because I know, that behind these Snow White murders; are The Cobras”
