The Dwayne Wayne Chronicles-Ch 5
Malcolm-Jamal Helmsley lay on his bed, annoyed at Willie's snoring. He
had been in this god-awful prison for about 3 weeks. It was absolutely
mind numbing in The Cauldron. Every day they would get up at the crack
of dawn and work on license plates, hats, and other crap until 6 in
the evening. The food given to the prisoners was one step above pig
slop. The prisoners were not allowed to have radios or TV's, so
unless they got mail from their family members' prisoners were shut off
from current events.
Malcolm glared at Willie's bed above him. Willie's snoring was like a
damn cannon, shooting off at enemy battleships. Besides that, he was
getting tired of hearing the stories about how many men he's killed
since he was in The Cauldron. Malcolm was also getting tired of
hearing about how Willie's son was useless. Malcolm was actually glad
that Willie's son Dwayne could piss off Willie so much. Personally,
he didn't believe that one child could be as bad as Willie made him
out to be.
Malcolm groaned as he heard the "dulcet" tones of Officer Scruggs
telling his fellow prisoners today was a special day. Of course,
every day was a special day to Scruggs. Malcolm thought that Scruggs
enjoyed his job far too much. During his time here, Scruggs punched
him in the kidney, kicked him in the neck, and clubbed him unconscious
with his nightstick. Malcolm thought that Scruggs should be the one
locked up instead of some of the prisoners. The rest of the prison
staff was fair. In fact, Malcolm played spades with the prison cook,
doctor, and chaplain respectively.
Officer Scruggs got to Malcolm and Willie's cell and asked, "How is
the high and mighty Black Prophet doing today?"
Malcolm smiled and sarcastically replied, "Oh, I'm having a blast. I'm
going to recommend this place to all of my friends."
Scruggs smirked, "You can't get a better endorsement than that. Come
with me, I have a surprise for you."
Malcolm smirked and answered, "I don't swing that way."
Scruggs backhanded Malcolm across the face and snarled, "Don't get
smart with me."
Malcolm wiped the blood from his lips and replied, "You know, society
is much more accepting of homosexuals today. You have nothing to be
ashamed of."
Malcolm started stomping around the cell and yelled "WE'RE QUEER,
WE'RE HERE, WE"RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!"
Willie awoke from the ruckus being raised and grumbled, "I'm trying
to sleep a little longer. Shut the fuck up."
Scruggs grabbed Malcolm, slammed him against the wall and snarled,
"Shut up or I'll cut you from your scrotum to your brain."
Malcolm replied, "There you go talking about men's crotches again.
Just admit to yourself that you're gay."
Scruggs' face turned red in anger, "Okay, you think you're a funny
man now. I was going to put Willie through The Gauntlet, but it's your
turn. I can't wait to see how you fare." Scruggs threw Malcolm on his
bed and stalked away.
Willie looked at Malcolm and shook his head.
Malcolm looked at Willie and asked, "What's The Gauntlet?"
Willie replied, "The Gauntlet is the big moneymaker for this place.
Once a month, Scruggs picks a prisoner to fight against 10 of the
meanest people this place has to offer. You only have one weapon
that's picked at random by the warden. Basically, you have to kill or
incapitate your opponents to survive."
"That's just great, how is this supposed to make money?"
Willie grinned slightly, "The prison administration flies in big
ballers who pay ungodly amounts of money to see this spectacle in
person. I believe that they broadcast this shit on Pay-Per-View as
well."
Malcolm looked incredulous at Willie and said, "Let me get this
straight, Once a month a dude has to kill or maim 10 other people to
survive and people pay money to see it live and in their living
rooms."
Willie smiled ruefully and responded, "That's the plan. I personally
think that they were inspired by George Carlin's theory."
"What theory is that?"
Willie leaned back in his bed, "You know, that a real human spectacle
would be to put steroid-enraged athletes on a island and let them kill
each other."
Malcolm stood up and paced. He was an okay fighter, but he didn't
think that he could beat down 10 people.
Willie jumped down from his bed and looked at Malcolm, "Listen, pacing
isn't going to help you any. You need to sit down and listen to what
I'm going to tell you."
Malcolm sat down on his bed and looked at Willie expectantly. Willie
said, "I've been in a couple of these and the main thing you have to
understand is not to spend all of your energy early on. Try and finish
things as quickly as possible because the first couple of guys will be
jabronis. Second, be as nasty as possible to your opponent. Third,
play toward the crowd. If the crowd likes you, you can feed off their
emotion for that extra boost of adrenalin. Finally, keep your head out
there.
Malcolm looked at Dwayne in bemusement and remarked, "You sound like a
coach talking to a player or something. I'm potentially going to kill
10 people today."
Willie shrugged and stated, "It's you or them, dog. Oh, another tip.
If you're really getting tired, think about someone you hate. That'll
push you to another level of rage easily."
Malcolm smiled, "Thanks for the advice. One more question, what does
this place look like?"
Willie smiled, "It's a big arena thing where everybody will be
watching you and your opponent. Think the Roman Coluseum, back in the
olden days."
Malcolm snorted, "I feel like I'm a slave, just like Spartacus."
"You're right, I actually wanted to go into The Gauntlet today."
Malcolm looked at Willie in surprise and asked, "Why?"
Willie said, "It's my son's birthday today."
"Cool."
Willie grumbled, "No, it's not cool. I needed to go into The Gauntlet
to release this anger I have against him. He's the reason I'm in here.
The little punk hasn't visited me once in 11 years."
"Didn't the court say you abused him when he was a little boy?"
Willie snarled, "I didn't abuse that little bastard. I was just trying
to make a man out of him. His mother had just died and he needed to
become tough."
Malcolm's eyebrow raised and he said, "I understand."
Malcolm thought that this was his opportunity to get him on his side.
Malcolm smiled at Willie, "Listen, I understand how the justice system
misunderstood your intentions. They misunderstood how I was just
trying to change society for the better. If you'll become my business
partner, we'll change the world. Fathers won't have to worry about how
had to hit their children."
Malcolm extended his hand to shake on the deal. Willie thought that
Malcolm had to agree to one condition before helping him out.
Willie said, "If you can get through The Gauntlet, I'll be your
partner."
"Okay, do we have a deal?"
Willie shook his hand and said, "Deal."
Officer Scruggs walked to their cell and said, "Nice to see you're
making friends before you die."
Malcolm smirked and answered, "I'm glad to see you have so much
confidence in my ability, Scruggs."
Scruggs scowled, "Let's go."
Malcolm thought as they went to the arena that Willie was definitely a
sick individual. However, he needed to make a sacrifice for the
greater good. Willie was definitely knowledgeable about what was going
down in The Cauldron. He needed to use this knowledge to find a way to
escape this hellhole. Scruggs and Malcolm stooped in front of a big
metal door.
Scruggs smiled and stated, "Get ready."
Malcolm grinned and replied with bravado that he didn't feel, "I was
born ready."
Scruggs and Malcolm entered a huge Roman style arena, just as Willie
said. The whole prison population was crowded in rafters above the
duo. Malcolm looked straight ahead and saw the warden, along with the
prison's cook, doctor, librarian and some of the high rollers in a
glass booth above the fighting space. Scruggs went to the center of
the arena with a microphone and asked for silence. The crowd
immediately shut up as Scruggs introduced Malcolm and his opponent
Brickhouse ala Micheal Buffer. The crowd reached a fever pitch as
Malcolm and his opponent glared at each other.
Malcolm looked up at the chiseled 6"6 frame of Brickhouse and was
immediately pissed off at the obvious handicap. Brickhouse had a huge
weight and height advantage over him. On top of that, all he got was a
tacky aluminum bat while Brickhouse was equipped with a katana.
Scruggs got out of the way and yelled, "FIGHT!" Malcolm immediately
swung at Brickhouse's knee, looking to bring the giant down.
Brickhouse flipped over Malcolm's attack, landed on his feet and swung
his katana at Malcolm's head. Malcolm blocked Brickhouse's strike and
kicked him in the knee. Brickhouse hopped around in pain as Malcolm
struck Brickhouse in the aforementioned knee with the aluminum bat.
Brickhouse fell down to the ground and Malcolm started to beat the
living crap out of Brickhouse. Malcolm couldn't stop beating on
Brickhouse, even after Brickhouse was way past the point of being
alive anymore. A guard nearby pulled Malcolm off of the bloodied body
of Brickhouse as two more guards pulled Brickhouse off the field.
Malcolm started to mug for the crowded, throwing up gang signs and
breaking off the "prison" pose. He even started talking trash to the
departed Brickhouse. Malcolm felt an unbelievable energy course
through his veins. It was a primal urge. He found out that he wanted
to kill or severely injure whomever they put in his path.
Willie watched as Malcolm beat down Brickhouse. He was pretty sure
that Malcolm would have been destroyed after getting past the first
guy even with the advice he gave him. Willie cringed as Malcolm hit
the next opponent in the nuts with the bat. It looked like Malcolm was
going to get through The Gauntlet without that much damage suffered.
Willie sighed slightly and thought that at the least, his partnership
with Malcolm would fail because Malcolm would end up dying trying to
get out of here. At the most, Malcolm could find a way to get out of
here and he could punish that son of his for being such a punk.
Malcolm managed to get through the rest of the challengers, although
it was much tougher than Willie thought it would be for him. During
the course of The Gauntlet, Malcolm sustained a sprained elbow, a
knife cut his face, his ribs were sore and one of his legs had a huge
gash in it. Malcolm stood in pain as the medical team whisked him away
to heal his injuries. Malcolm was glad that he avoided death today and
now he had a plan to get out of here without having to risk his life.
He would tell Willie about it later.
Dwayne Wayne sat in his Calculus class. His mind was definitely not on
Calculus. Today was his birthday, October 8th. He'd now hit one of the
magical numbers in a person's life, his 18th birthday. He thought
about how his life has changed since he came to New Wales when he was
ten. First off, his grandma didn't beat him within an inch of his life
like his dad. Second, he was able to make friends instead of shying
away from people. Since his father beat him so much, he was afraid to
trust anybody outside of his family. Third, through the grace of God
he'd been able to become a superhero and be with a beautiful woman
like Tammy. Dwayne grinned to himself and thought about how Tammy was
his soulmate. She knew him so well that she could finish his
sentences and vice versa. Fourth, his public relations job was
definitely awesome. He'd been able to meet with The Rza, Cappadonna,
Wesley Willis, and Christopher Walken during the last couple of weeks.
In fact, he and his grandmother had talked about Dwayne not going to
college and continuing to work for PD and DP Productions. He'd made
enough money that he could pay for his college education easily.
Dwayne also thought about how the city has been relatively quiet. He
and Tammy took down some child molesters, but they didn't even try and
fight back. He'd pretty much figured that Catman was lying in wait to
spring another attack on him. As the bell rang, Dwayne stopped
thinking about such weighty issues and left to go meet Tammy.
Dwayne walked outside and slipped on his shades. Tammy ran up to
Dwayne and gave him a kiss.
She put her arms and around and whispered, "Happy Birthday." Dwayne
smiled and responded, "I couldn't ask for a better birthday present
than being with you."
Tammy smiled, "Flatterer."
Dwayne bowed slightly , "Always, What's the program today? My grandma
needed to borrow the ride today because her car was in the shop."
Tammy crinkled her nose pertly and answered, "I can't tell you what's
going on today. That would ruin the surprise."
"What are standing here for? Let's ride."
Tammy smiled, "I agree with that sentiment, birthday boy." Tammy and
Dwayne went to Tammy's Porsche and they got into the car, destination
known only to Tammy.
Tammy blindfolded Dwayne as they left the school.
Dwayne asked, "Is this really necessary?"
Tammy laughed, "Of course, baby. Just kick back and relax."
Tammy's cell phone rang and Tammy answered the phone, "Salutations, O
Great One."
Mrs. Wayne questioned, "Who is this great one?"
Tammy sheepishly replied, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Wayne. I thought you were
PD or DP."
"Ah, well we've got everything set up at The Angel Alcove. Bring him
here at 6."
Tammy replied, "Okay, Mrs. Wayne. Have a good day."
"Thank you, dear. I have a pretty good idea of what you're going to do
with Dwayne. Be careful."
Tammy blushed and answered, "I will, Mrs. Wayne."
Dwayne smiled, "It was funny hearing you have to be so polite after
breaking off the usual disrespect line to my grandmother."
"Shut it, besides we're almost at our destination." replied Tammy.
"Good, not seeing your beautiful face is torture enough." Tammy
smiled as they reached their destination.
Tammy stepped out of the car and smiled. She looked at the outside of
the New Wales Hotel. This place was the most expensive hotel in the
city and had been around for 90 years. Tammy grabbed her backpack and
opened Dwayne's door. Tammy grabbed Dwayne's hand and led him toward
the hotel entrance.
Tammy and Dwayne entered the hotel. Tammy nodded at the clerk and the
clerk went over to Tammy and gave her the keys to their room. Tammy
had already arranged for the room a week ago and she was looking
forward to using it. Tammy led Dwayne to an elevator and they went
inside the elevator to go to their room.
The duo reached the 3rd floor and Tammy opened the door to their room.
The room was set up with a king-size bed, a huge TV, and a pristine
bathroom. Tammy laughingly pushed Dwayne on the bed.
Dwayne questioned, "You're enjoying this, aren't you?"
"You know it."
Tammy went over to a red button and pressed it. A couple of minutes
passed and room service came to the room with champagne, some grapes,
and bananas. Tammy gave the bellboy a tip and grabbed a bunch of
grapes.
Dwayne asked, "What's going on? I feel like this is some top-secret
mission."
Tammy giggled, "It is, sweetheart. My mission is to make this a
birthday you'll never forget."
Dwayne said jokingly, "I'm pretty sure I won't forget the fact that my
girlfriend abducted me on my birthday."
"You'll wish to be abducted more often when I'm through with you
today." Tammy sat on Dwayne's lap and fed him grapes.
Dwayne remarked, "Promises, promises. Can I take my blindfold off
now?"
"No" replied Tammy as she got off of his lap and poured two glasses of
champagne.
"Drink up, birthday boy." Said Tammy as she handed a glass to Dwayne.
Dwayne and Tammy clinked glasses and drank the champagne.
Tammy asked, "Are you enjoying yourself?"
Dwayne smiled, "Of course I am. Can I take my blindfold off now?"
Tammy said in a singsong voice, "Patience is a virtue, I have to go to
the bathroom and change."
Dwayne said, "Hurry."
Tammy went into the bathroom and changed into a sexy black lingerie
number.
Tammy came back into the room and purred, "You can take off the
blindfold now."
Dwayne pulled off his blindfold and his eyes grew wide at seeing
Tammy. He had seen Tammy's assets a month ago, but her beauty still
took his breath away. Dwayne had been waiting for this moment a long
time. Tammy's blue eyes roamed over Dwayne's taught frame, framed with
lust.
Tammy went over to Dwayne and kissed him softly, then with increasing
passion. Their tongues dueled with each other like they were in a
fencing match. Tammy broke away from the kiss and pulled his shirt
off. Dwayne unclasped Tammy's bra. Tammy slipped off her panties and
kissed down Dwayne's chest, laving his nipples with her tongue. Dwayne
groaned as she continued to kiss softly down his torso to his penis.
Tammy unbuckled his jeans and Dwayne leaned upwards so Tammy could
pull his pants down. After this was accomplished, Tammy licked and
sucked on Dwayne's penis until he was fully erect. Tammy slid the
condom on Dwayne and rubbed her wet vagina all over Dwayne's penis.
Tammy slowly lowered herself down on Dwayne, groaning as she took him
deeper into her wet vagina. Dwayne moaned loudly as Tammy rode Dwayne
like a bucking bronco. Sweat poured off both of them as Dwayne's put
his hands on Tammy's active buttocks. Dwayne licked on Tammy's breasts
when they were thrust in his face. Tammy's nipples were hardened from
Dwayne's swirling tongue. Dwayne and Tammy kissed each other
passionately as Dwayne flipped Tammy on her back. Dwayne started to
thrust his cock into her. Tammy's face was flush with effort as Dwayne
continued to push into her. Tammy gasped and yelled out incoherently
as her orgasm overtook her. Dwayne's face turned into a grimace of
pain as Tammy's orgasm sent him over the edge, making him erupt into
her depths. Dwayne put his arms around Tammy and kissed her shoulder.
Both of them were exhausted from their exploits and closed their eyes,
to dream of what they just experienced.
At 5:00 p.m., the duo woke up. Dwayne smiled and said, "Thank you.
That was unbelievable."
Tammy kissed him on his chest and snuggled up to him, saying, "You're
welcome and you were magnificent."
Dwayne kissed Tammy on the forehead, "I love you, Tammy."
Tammy smiled and kissed Dwayne on the forehead, "I love you too. I'd
love to stay here, but we have to get cleaned up and leave."
Dwayne said, "I assume you have a party planned."
Tammy smirked and replied, "Yeah, the party is at Angel Alcove."
Dwayne whistled, "One of the most expensive restaurants in town.
Somebody had to pay some major benjamins."
"Right you are, honey. Nothing but the best for you."
Dwayne smiled, "Aww, thanks. Are we coming back here later?"
Tammy grinned sexily and answered, "Ready for more, big boy? I have
this room for the rest of the week."
Dwayne grinned, "Solid, Well, shouldn't you be getting in the shower?"
Tammy replied in a husky voice, "Aren't you going to join me?" Dwayne
jumped up as Tammy ran into the bathroom, giggling.
Catman and an associate were outside of Angel Alcove, waiting for
Tammy and Dwayne to appear. Catman asked anxiously, "You know what to
do, Black Rose?"
Black Rose replied, "I go in and poison Mrs. Wayne's drink and leave a
birthday card with the message that Big Money and Silk are supposed to
meet you and I on the rooftop of the Old Carlton Towers on OBT."
Catman smiled and said, "It's going to be on now."
Dwayne and Tammy left the hotel and arrived at Angel Alcove at 6:oo.
Dwayne thought that this was the best birthday he'd ever had. He and
Tammy had participated in an act of love. It was like both of their
souls were drawn closer together. Tammy, for her part was in a state
of bliss. She had a taste of Dwayne and wanted more. The duo stepped
out of the car and into Angel Alcove. Catman barked out, "Go!" Black
Rose got out of the car and followed Dwayne and Tammy.
Dwayne and Tammy stepped into the room and everyone yelled "Happy
Birthday!" PD, DP, Creaig, Rob, some friends from work, fellow
seniors, Dwayne's grandma, and Laquanda Lawrence were in the room.
Dwayne looked at the crowd of people in the room and was touched that
all of them showed up for his birthday. PD and DP brought out a huge
birthday cake with yellow and green frosting with 18 light candles.
Creaig smiled and said, "Make a wish, Dwayne." Dwayne walked over to
the cake and blew out the candles, wishing that his mom could be here
to see this.
Alice smiled and appeared before Dwayne. "Happy birthday, son."
Dwayne's eyes teared up as he whispered, "Hi, mom."
"Son, listen to me. Something is going to happen to your grandmother
today."
"What?"
Alice sighed, "I can't tell you anymore than that. God has rules about
divulging too much. Just be ready, okay."
"Okay."
Tammy heard the conversation and was upset at Alice's declaration.
Mrs. Wayne was more of a mother to her than her own mother was. She
didn't want her to die.
Rob asked, "What did you wish for?"
Dwayne smiled ruefully, "I wished my mom was still alive to see this."
An uneasy silence settled over the room.
Mrs. Wayne broke the silence by smiling and saying, "That's a fine
wish, Dwayne. Everyone, eat and enjoy yourselves." While everyone was
busy chatting or eating, Black Rose walked into the room and slipped
the poison into Mrs. Wayne drink. Black Rose then put the black
birthday card in the pile with the rest of the cards and left.
Dwayne cornered PD and DP and said, "Listen, my mom told me that
something was going to happen to my grandma today."
PD looked at Dwayne and said, "Does your mom visit you or something?"
Dwayne asked, "Yeah, so what's your point?"
DP said, "I think he's saying that you must be on something to be
seeing dead people."
Dwayne bristled, "C'mon, you guys gave me a magical pimp cane, for
God's sake. I know you have to believe in life beyond death."
PD said, "I'll believe it when I see it."
"I'll call her now."
DP said, "If you do that, I'll hook you up with a million dollars."
Dwayne smirked and stated, "Mom, come out here." DP smiled when he
didn't see Alice.
DP smirked, "No mom, no million."
"Son, I'm your guardian angel, not a meal ticket." replied Alice in
Dwayne's mind.
Dwayne replied, "Mom, I could've been set for a long time."
Alice chided Dwayne, "You're already rich, Pookie."
"More money can't hurt."
Alice smiled and said, "I'll be going now."
Tammy screamed, "MRS. WAYNE!" Everyone turned toward Tammmy and saw
that Mrs. Wayne was one the floor. Tammy bent down and felt for her
pulse.
Dwayne ran over to Tammy and asked in a trembling voice, "Is she?"
"No, but her pulse is weak."
DP called 911 while PD asked what was Mrs. Wayne doing. Tammy said
that Mrs. Wayne was drinking some fruit punch when she went down. The
rest of the guests put down the fruit punch. Creaig walked over to the
birthday cards, looking for some evidence when he looked at a black
birthday card addressed to Dwayne. Creaig picked up the card and
handed it to Dwayne.
Dwayne yelled, "WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH MY GRANDMOTHER'S
PAIN?"
Creaig stepped back and answered quietly, "Nobody else had a birthday
card like this."
Dwayne read the card and said to himself, "Catman, you're going to die
for this."
An ambulance appeared in front of Angel Alcove. The paramedics loaded
Mrs. Wayne into the ambulance with Dwayne in tow. Tammy, PD, and DP
got into their cars to follow Dwayne to the hospital. Creaig and
Robert watched as the ambulance sped away. Both prayed that Mrs. Wayne
would be okay because they didn't know if Dwayne would be able to live
without her in his life.
The ambulance, PD and DP, and Tammy reached the hospital in record
time. Dwayne burst out of the ambulance and followed the paramedics
into the hospital with Tammy, PD and DP following close behind. The
medics turned Mrs. Wayne over to the nurses and some doctors. Dwayne
tried to follow his grandmother to the operating room, but orderlies
turned him away.
Dwayne snarled, "Get out of my way."
Tammy held him back, "This won't help. Alice told you something like
this was going to happen."
"She told me but that doesn't mean I have to like it."
A tall, gray-haired white doctor asked, "Are you, Mr. Wayne? I'm
Doctor Rivers."
Dwayne said, "That's me. What's wrong with my grandmother?"
Rivers sighed, "You grandmother has fallen victim to the Cloud Kicker
poison. This poison totally wrecks the patient's physical well being.
There is an antidote, but we don't have it here since we rarely see
poison cases here."
Dwayne said, "Do you know where I can get the antidote?"
Rivers said, "We've already looked in most of the hospitals in the
area and they don't have any and we don't have time to search for it
in other parts of the country. Someone you know has to get the
antidote or your grandmother will die at 11:00. I'm sorry." Rivers
walked away.
Dwayne snarled at DP and PD, saying "Do you believe me now?"
PD and DP nodded their heads in agreement.
"Listen, I got a birthday card from Catman telling me and Tammy to
meet him at the rooftop of the Old Carlton Towers building on OBT."
PD said, "It's probably a trap."
Tammy said, "It's doesn't matter, we have to go get this done."
DP said, "Be careful." Tammy and Dwayne left the hospital to drive to
the old Carlton Towers building.
Tammy's Porsche hit 200 mph as they rolled into the alley that the old
Carlton Towers building was located. Tammy pressed the brakes and spun
into the parking lot of Carlton Towers. Tammy and Dwayne jumped out of
the car and yelled "Ghetto!" Big Money was wearing a black shirt, with
matching leather pants and a black trench coat. Silk was wearing a
black shirt with a red dragon on the front along with black satin
pants and black boots. Big Money said, "We don't have time to run up
some stairs." Big Money and Silk raised their canes and 40 Ounce
bottles appeared in their hands. They drank the 40 Ounce bottles and
jumped to the top of Carlton Towers.
Big Money and Silk touched down on the rooftop. Big Money turned his
cane into a double-barreled shotgun and Silk was armed with a 35 mm
pistol.
Big Money looked at Catman and angrily asked, "What the fuck do you
want?"
Catman smirked, "You didn't like my birthday present?" Big Money
pulled the trigger and shot at Catman.
Catman dodged the bullet and sighed, "Look at you, already going to
the violence."
Big Money replied in a menacing voice, "I owe you an unpleasant death,
Catman."
Catman said with scorn, "Likewise, you arrogant bastard. You were
always so damn uppity in school; you never helped the slow kids like
me. You were too busy talking shit to us. Well, now look at me. I'm
somebody in this world. You're nothing now, superhero powers
notwithstanding."
"When I'm done with you, you'll wish you were eating crayons and
riding the short bus again."
Catman snarled, "Shut up, you have no room to threaten people. I have
the antidote you're looking for. Actually, my associate Black Rose has
it."
Black Rose appears next to Catman. Black Rose was 5"10, with black
hair, hazel eyes, and was wearing a skin tight body suit.
Silk stated, "Listen, wench. You better give us the antidote and save
yourself some pain."
Black Rose looked at Silk with disdain, "Wench? I'll beat you to
within a inch of your life, you cunt."
Silk started to walk over to Black Rose, but Big Money held her back.
Catman said, "Enough! To save your precious grandmother, Big Money has
to beat me in a no-holds-barred battle to the death only using your
superpowers. No weapons. Do you accept?"
Big Money answered, "Yeah, I accept. But how do I know Black Rose
won't attack me or something?"
"By Washington Height's Honor, Black Rose won't interfere. Besides,
she won't have to. I'm going to bitch-slap you all over the place."
Big Money thought that Catman would keep his word, no one used
Washington Height's honor unless they really meant business. Alice
appeared to Dwayne and said, "You're correct about Catman, but watch
out Black Rose."
"Thanks, mom." replied Big Money.
Big Money threw his cane to Silk and Catman threw his weapons over to
Black Rose. Big Money and Catman glared at each other, waiting for the
other to attack. Catman growled at Big Money and charged at Big Money,
swinging for his jaw. Big Money avoided the swing and Ghetto Punched
Catman in the side. Catman winced in pain and jumped on Big Money,
choking him. Big Money kneed Catman in the crotch, forcing Catman to
get off of Big Money. Catman grimaced as white-hot pain shot through
him.
Catman snarled, "I thought you were too good to use street brawling."
"Fuck that honor shit."
Big Money took a vicious kick to jaw from Catman. Big Money fell to
the ground as Catman sneered at Big Money, kicking him in the ribs with
extra force being fueled by his superpowers. Big Money gasped and
tarted to spit blood as Catman pulled him up to his feet, saying, "You
never were good at fighting dirty. Let the master how you how to do
it." Catman started pummeling Big Money with blinding speed. After the
attack, Big Money was thrown against a door, bloodied and battered.
"It looks like the great Big Money is going down." remarked Black
Rose.
"It's not over yet." replied Tammy as Big Money fought back with a
superkick to Catman's jaw.
Black Rose yelled, "C'mon, you can beat the shit out of him."
Silk smirked, "You're not so confident, are you?"
Black Rose yelled, "Shut up, you stretch-marked whore!
"If I wasn't so concerned about Big Money's welfare, I'd make you take
that statement back."
Black Rose grinned and answered coldly, "Better people than you have
tried to kill me. Step in line." Silk scoffed and watched the battle
raged on.
Big Money blasted Catman with a Ghettoblaster, driving Catman to the
ground. Catman got up and blasted Big Money with an energy blast of
his own. Big Money hit the ground hard. Catman stood over Big Money,
swaying like a drunken sailor due to the punishment delivered by
Dwayne.
Catman said, "It's over, bitch."
Big Money was at the limit of his strength. He was definitely going to
need medical attention if he managed to survive.
Catman picked Big Money up and carried him to the edge of the rooftop.
"Do you like the view, Big Money, Dwayne, uppity jungle-fever having
bastard. It's the last thing you'll ever see."
Catman started to throw Big Money over the edge to the street below,
but Big Money broke out of Catman's grip and fell to the ground.
Catman said, "Why won't you die already?"
Big Money stood up slowly, "Because you're just not good enough to
beat me. Yeah, you beat the crap out of me but when it's all said and
done, I'm going to prevail. I'm going to take you out, your bitch over
there, and anybody else that has the temerity to go against me. You
always have and always will be a sorry excuse for a human being. Don't
blame me because of your fuckups over the years. If you were a real
man, you would have overcome people teasing you. My father beat the
shit out of me for 3 years before I moved to New Wales. You and your
friends pushed me around for 8 years. NO MORE! THE TIME HAS COME FOR
YOU TO ACCOUNT FOR YOUR ACTIONS!" Big Money started to glow and Catman
backed away, fear written all over his face.
Big Money said, "I beat you wish you were back in school, sniffing
glue and snapping girl's underwear right now. Oh, and do my eyes
deceive me? I think you went to the bathroom in your pants. I would've
thought that you would be past that, but I don't blame you. I remember
you saying that you would make me stop breathing." Big Money grabbed
Catman by the neck and held him over the ledge. Big Money released
Catman and Catman started falling toward his death. Big Money reached
out and caught Catman.
Catman asked, "What are you doing? Have you had a change of heart?"
Big Money looked right in Catman's eyes and said, "Say hi to the devil
for me."
Big Money dropped Catman and as he started falling toward the ground,
Big Money closed his eyes. Catman was lying on the street, clinging to
life. Big Money's whole body was surrounded by a blue aura and Big
Money pulled back his hands and yelled "GHETTOBLASTER!" The huge
energy blast burned Catman to a crisp and left a huge crater in its
wake.
Big Money slumped to the ground, exhausted from the battle. Silk
smiled and said, "Give up the antidote, bitch." Black Rose handed Silk
the antidote and said, "He just got lucky. But this doesn't mean you
get to enjoy your victory."
Silk looked at Black Rose and said, "What are you talking about?"
Black Rose smiled and said, "CHAOS BOMB!" A huge ball of black energy
exploded from Black Rose like an atom bomb. Silk was blasted off the
rooftop and the building crumbled to the ground.
Natasha whispered to Silk, "Silk, you have to get up. Big Money needs
you. C'mon, get up."
Silk pushed some rubble off of her and groaned.
Silk croaked, "What the hell happened?"
"Black Rose blew up the building." Replied Natasha.
"Is that bitch still alive?" replied Silk with a grimace.
"Unfortunately, did the antidote survive?"
Silk patted it and said, "Yeah, I don't know how I survived this." A
faint groan came from a pile 20 feet away from Silk. Silk stumbled
over to the pile and started pulling away rocks, pain shooting through
her back. She managed to clear the debris off of Big Money.
A bloodied and very bruised Big Money questioned, "Are you okay,
Silk?"
Silk said, "I've been better, but the antidote is okay."
Big Money smiled weakly, "Good, can you pick me up and get us out of
here."
Silk picked up Big Money, ignoring the pain in her back and staggered
to the Porsche, which through a stroke of luck was still there. The
white Porsche had a big dent in the roof of the car and huge dents the
sides, but it was still in relatively good shape. Silk set Big Money
in the passenger seat and then she laid down in the driver's seat.
"Natasha, I don't think I can drive. I'm in so much pain." Natasha
closed her eyes and the car disappeared in a flash of white light.
The Porsche appeared in front of the hospital. Silk stepped out of the
Porsche, still in pain but the pain wasn't as bad as before. Big Money
was also healed enough to walk under his own power.
Silk said, "Apparently Natasha transported us here and we were healed
a little bit on the way."
Silk and Big Money stormed into the hospital. Silk held the little bag
with the antidote and a nurse took the antidote from Silk.
Dr. Rivers looked at them and remarked; "PD and DP told me that they
had sent Tammy and Dwayne to get word to you two that they needed your
help. Tell Dwayne when you see him that his grandmother should be
okay. She'll have to stay here for a couple of days."
"We'll do that. Thank you, Doctor."
"No thank you, Big Money and Silk. Listen, could you two sign
something for me. My granddaughter loves you two." replied Dr. Rivers.
"It would be our pleasure, Doctor. Where are PD and DP?" asked Silk.
"They went back to their home at Pegasus Pavilion. They said that they
would be waiting for you when you got there."
Big Money answered, "Okay, Doctor." Big Money and Silk signed a
personalized autograph for Dr. Rivers and walked to the Porsche. Silk
was sufficiently healed enough to be able to drive them home.
As they got into the car, Big Money asked, "You know what, Silk?"
"What?"
Big Money said with a small smile, "I'm getting too old for this
shit."
Silk grinned slightly and replied, "I am too, Big Money." The duo sped
off to Pegasus Pavilion and a much-deserved rest.
Shonuf shook his head in sadness. Catman was definitely one of the
best field generals he's ever had. He vowed that Big Money would pay
for this someday.
"Kamal?" said Shonuf.
"Yes, Shonuf." replied Kamal
"Tell Black Rose that she's now the field general for the Golden
Glocks."
"Yes, sir." replied Kamal.
End Ch. 5
Author's Notes
Damn, I'm on a roll.I basically stayed with the script throughout. I
wasn't planning on having Black Rose become the new field general for
The Golden Glocks, but she's definitely got the potential to be just
as vicious as Catman was. I was struggling with the fight thing.
Originally, I was going to have them fight a sword duel, but I just
didn't feel right doing that right now. I was also thinking about
somehow letting Catman live, but then I figured that I couldn't really
do that because it just wouldn't be as emotionally
charged if he survived. Tis all so I wish you all
Peace, love, and hair grease.
Showstopper
Malcolm-Jamal Helmsley lay on his bed, annoyed at Willie's snoring. He
had been in this god-awful prison for about 3 weeks. It was absolutely
mind numbing in The Cauldron. Every day they would get up at the crack
of dawn and work on license plates, hats, and other crap until 6 in
the evening. The food given to the prisoners was one step above pig
slop. The prisoners were not allowed to have radios or TV's, so
unless they got mail from their family members' prisoners were shut off
from current events.
Malcolm glared at Willie's bed above him. Willie's snoring was like a
damn cannon, shooting off at enemy battleships. Besides that, he was
getting tired of hearing the stories about how many men he's killed
since he was in The Cauldron. Malcolm was also getting tired of
hearing about how Willie's son was useless. Malcolm was actually glad
that Willie's son Dwayne could piss off Willie so much. Personally,
he didn't believe that one child could be as bad as Willie made him
out to be.
Malcolm groaned as he heard the "dulcet" tones of Officer Scruggs
telling his fellow prisoners today was a special day. Of course,
every day was a special day to Scruggs. Malcolm thought that Scruggs
enjoyed his job far too much. During his time here, Scruggs punched
him in the kidney, kicked him in the neck, and clubbed him unconscious
with his nightstick. Malcolm thought that Scruggs should be the one
locked up instead of some of the prisoners. The rest of the prison
staff was fair. In fact, Malcolm played spades with the prison cook,
doctor, and chaplain respectively.
Officer Scruggs got to Malcolm and Willie's cell and asked, "How is
the high and mighty Black Prophet doing today?"
Malcolm smiled and sarcastically replied, "Oh, I'm having a blast. I'm
going to recommend this place to all of my friends."
Scruggs smirked, "You can't get a better endorsement than that. Come
with me, I have a surprise for you."
Malcolm smirked and answered, "I don't swing that way."
Scruggs backhanded Malcolm across the face and snarled, "Don't get
smart with me."
Malcolm wiped the blood from his lips and replied, "You know, society
is much more accepting of homosexuals today. You have nothing to be
ashamed of."
Malcolm started stomping around the cell and yelled "WE'RE QUEER,
WE'RE HERE, WE"RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!"
Willie awoke from the ruckus being raised and grumbled, "I'm trying
to sleep a little longer. Shut the fuck up."
Scruggs grabbed Malcolm, slammed him against the wall and snarled,
"Shut up or I'll cut you from your scrotum to your brain."
Malcolm replied, "There you go talking about men's crotches again.
Just admit to yourself that you're gay."
Scruggs' face turned red in anger, "Okay, you think you're a funny
man now. I was going to put Willie through The Gauntlet, but it's your
turn. I can't wait to see how you fare." Scruggs threw Malcolm on his
bed and stalked away.
Willie looked at Malcolm and shook his head.
Malcolm looked at Willie and asked, "What's The Gauntlet?"
Willie replied, "The Gauntlet is the big moneymaker for this place.
Once a month, Scruggs picks a prisoner to fight against 10 of the
meanest people this place has to offer. You only have one weapon
that's picked at random by the warden. Basically, you have to kill or
incapitate your opponents to survive."
"That's just great, how is this supposed to make money?"
Willie grinned slightly, "The prison administration flies in big
ballers who pay ungodly amounts of money to see this spectacle in
person. I believe that they broadcast this shit on Pay-Per-View as
well."
Malcolm looked incredulous at Willie and said, "Let me get this
straight, Once a month a dude has to kill or maim 10 other people to
survive and people pay money to see it live and in their living
rooms."
Willie smiled ruefully and responded, "That's the plan. I personally
think that they were inspired by George Carlin's theory."
"What theory is that?"
Willie leaned back in his bed, "You know, that a real human spectacle
would be to put steroid-enraged athletes on a island and let them kill
each other."
Malcolm stood up and paced. He was an okay fighter, but he didn't
think that he could beat down 10 people.
Willie jumped down from his bed and looked at Malcolm, "Listen, pacing
isn't going to help you any. You need to sit down and listen to what
I'm going to tell you."
Malcolm sat down on his bed and looked at Willie expectantly. Willie
said, "I've been in a couple of these and the main thing you have to
understand is not to spend all of your energy early on. Try and finish
things as quickly as possible because the first couple of guys will be
jabronis. Second, be as nasty as possible to your opponent. Third,
play toward the crowd. If the crowd likes you, you can feed off their
emotion for that extra boost of adrenalin. Finally, keep your head out
there.
Malcolm looked at Dwayne in bemusement and remarked, "You sound like a
coach talking to a player or something. I'm potentially going to kill
10 people today."
Willie shrugged and stated, "It's you or them, dog. Oh, another tip.
If you're really getting tired, think about someone you hate. That'll
push you to another level of rage easily."
Malcolm smiled, "Thanks for the advice. One more question, what does
this place look like?"
Willie smiled, "It's a big arena thing where everybody will be
watching you and your opponent. Think the Roman Coluseum, back in the
olden days."
Malcolm snorted, "I feel like I'm a slave, just like Spartacus."
"You're right, I actually wanted to go into The Gauntlet today."
Malcolm looked at Willie in surprise and asked, "Why?"
Willie said, "It's my son's birthday today."
"Cool."
Willie grumbled, "No, it's not cool. I needed to go into The Gauntlet
to release this anger I have against him. He's the reason I'm in here.
The little punk hasn't visited me once in 11 years."
"Didn't the court say you abused him when he was a little boy?"
Willie snarled, "I didn't abuse that little bastard. I was just trying
to make a man out of him. His mother had just died and he needed to
become tough."
Malcolm's eyebrow raised and he said, "I understand."
Malcolm thought that this was his opportunity to get him on his side.
Malcolm smiled at Willie, "Listen, I understand how the justice system
misunderstood your intentions. They misunderstood how I was just
trying to change society for the better. If you'll become my business
partner, we'll change the world. Fathers won't have to worry about how
had to hit their children."
Malcolm extended his hand to shake on the deal. Willie thought that
Malcolm had to agree to one condition before helping him out.
Willie said, "If you can get through The Gauntlet, I'll be your
partner."
"Okay, do we have a deal?"
Willie shook his hand and said, "Deal."
Officer Scruggs walked to their cell and said, "Nice to see you're
making friends before you die."
Malcolm smirked and answered, "I'm glad to see you have so much
confidence in my ability, Scruggs."
Scruggs scowled, "Let's go."
Malcolm thought as they went to the arena that Willie was definitely a
sick individual. However, he needed to make a sacrifice for the
greater good. Willie was definitely knowledgeable about what was going
down in The Cauldron. He needed to use this knowledge to find a way to
escape this hellhole. Scruggs and Malcolm stooped in front of a big
metal door.
Scruggs smiled and stated, "Get ready."
Malcolm grinned and replied with bravado that he didn't feel, "I was
born ready."
Scruggs and Malcolm entered a huge Roman style arena, just as Willie
said. The whole prison population was crowded in rafters above the
duo. Malcolm looked straight ahead and saw the warden, along with the
prison's cook, doctor, librarian and some of the high rollers in a
glass booth above the fighting space. Scruggs went to the center of
the arena with a microphone and asked for silence. The crowd
immediately shut up as Scruggs introduced Malcolm and his opponent
Brickhouse ala Micheal Buffer. The crowd reached a fever pitch as
Malcolm and his opponent glared at each other.
Malcolm looked up at the chiseled 6"6 frame of Brickhouse and was
immediately pissed off at the obvious handicap. Brickhouse had a huge
weight and height advantage over him. On top of that, all he got was a
tacky aluminum bat while Brickhouse was equipped with a katana.
Scruggs got out of the way and yelled, "FIGHT!" Malcolm immediately
swung at Brickhouse's knee, looking to bring the giant down.
Brickhouse flipped over Malcolm's attack, landed on his feet and swung
his katana at Malcolm's head. Malcolm blocked Brickhouse's strike and
kicked him in the knee. Brickhouse hopped around in pain as Malcolm
struck Brickhouse in the aforementioned knee with the aluminum bat.
Brickhouse fell down to the ground and Malcolm started to beat the
living crap out of Brickhouse. Malcolm couldn't stop beating on
Brickhouse, even after Brickhouse was way past the point of being
alive anymore. A guard nearby pulled Malcolm off of the bloodied body
of Brickhouse as two more guards pulled Brickhouse off the field.
Malcolm started to mug for the crowded, throwing up gang signs and
breaking off the "prison" pose. He even started talking trash to the
departed Brickhouse. Malcolm felt an unbelievable energy course
through his veins. It was a primal urge. He found out that he wanted
to kill or severely injure whomever they put in his path.
Willie watched as Malcolm beat down Brickhouse. He was pretty sure
that Malcolm would have been destroyed after getting past the first
guy even with the advice he gave him. Willie cringed as Malcolm hit
the next opponent in the nuts with the bat. It looked like Malcolm was
going to get through The Gauntlet without that much damage suffered.
Willie sighed slightly and thought that at the least, his partnership
with Malcolm would fail because Malcolm would end up dying trying to
get out of here. At the most, Malcolm could find a way to get out of
here and he could punish that son of his for being such a punk.
Malcolm managed to get through the rest of the challengers, although
it was much tougher than Willie thought it would be for him. During
the course of The Gauntlet, Malcolm sustained a sprained elbow, a
knife cut his face, his ribs were sore and one of his legs had a huge
gash in it. Malcolm stood in pain as the medical team whisked him away
to heal his injuries. Malcolm was glad that he avoided death today and
now he had a plan to get out of here without having to risk his life.
He would tell Willie about it later.
Dwayne Wayne sat in his Calculus class. His mind was definitely not on
Calculus. Today was his birthday, October 8th. He'd now hit one of the
magical numbers in a person's life, his 18th birthday. He thought
about how his life has changed since he came to New Wales when he was
ten. First off, his grandma didn't beat him within an inch of his life
like his dad. Second, he was able to make friends instead of shying
away from people. Since his father beat him so much, he was afraid to
trust anybody outside of his family. Third, through the grace of God
he'd been able to become a superhero and be with a beautiful woman
like Tammy. Dwayne grinned to himself and thought about how Tammy was
his soulmate. She knew him so well that she could finish his
sentences and vice versa. Fourth, his public relations job was
definitely awesome. He'd been able to meet with The Rza, Cappadonna,
Wesley Willis, and Christopher Walken during the last couple of weeks.
In fact, he and his grandmother had talked about Dwayne not going to
college and continuing to work for PD and DP Productions. He'd made
enough money that he could pay for his college education easily.
Dwayne also thought about how the city has been relatively quiet. He
and Tammy took down some child molesters, but they didn't even try and
fight back. He'd pretty much figured that Catman was lying in wait to
spring another attack on him. As the bell rang, Dwayne stopped
thinking about such weighty issues and left to go meet Tammy.
Dwayne walked outside and slipped on his shades. Tammy ran up to
Dwayne and gave him a kiss.
She put her arms and around and whispered, "Happy Birthday." Dwayne
smiled and responded, "I couldn't ask for a better birthday present
than being with you."
Tammy smiled, "Flatterer."
Dwayne bowed slightly , "Always, What's the program today? My grandma
needed to borrow the ride today because her car was in the shop."
Tammy crinkled her nose pertly and answered, "I can't tell you what's
going on today. That would ruin the surprise."
"What are standing here for? Let's ride."
Tammy smiled, "I agree with that sentiment, birthday boy." Tammy and
Dwayne went to Tammy's Porsche and they got into the car, destination
known only to Tammy.
Tammy blindfolded Dwayne as they left the school.
Dwayne asked, "Is this really necessary?"
Tammy laughed, "Of course, baby. Just kick back and relax."
Tammy's cell phone rang and Tammy answered the phone, "Salutations, O
Great One."
Mrs. Wayne questioned, "Who is this great one?"
Tammy sheepishly replied, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Wayne. I thought you were
PD or DP."
"Ah, well we've got everything set up at The Angel Alcove. Bring him
here at 6."
Tammy replied, "Okay, Mrs. Wayne. Have a good day."
"Thank you, dear. I have a pretty good idea of what you're going to do
with Dwayne. Be careful."
Tammy blushed and answered, "I will, Mrs. Wayne."
Dwayne smiled, "It was funny hearing you have to be so polite after
breaking off the usual disrespect line to my grandmother."
"Shut it, besides we're almost at our destination." replied Tammy.
"Good, not seeing your beautiful face is torture enough." Tammy
smiled as they reached their destination.
Tammy stepped out of the car and smiled. She looked at the outside of
the New Wales Hotel. This place was the most expensive hotel in the
city and had been around for 90 years. Tammy grabbed her backpack and
opened Dwayne's door. Tammy grabbed Dwayne's hand and led him toward
the hotel entrance.
Tammy and Dwayne entered the hotel. Tammy nodded at the clerk and the
clerk went over to Tammy and gave her the keys to their room. Tammy
had already arranged for the room a week ago and she was looking
forward to using it. Tammy led Dwayne to an elevator and they went
inside the elevator to go to their room.
The duo reached the 3rd floor and Tammy opened the door to their room.
The room was set up with a king-size bed, a huge TV, and a pristine
bathroom. Tammy laughingly pushed Dwayne on the bed.
Dwayne questioned, "You're enjoying this, aren't you?"
"You know it."
Tammy went over to a red button and pressed it. A couple of minutes
passed and room service came to the room with champagne, some grapes,
and bananas. Tammy gave the bellboy a tip and grabbed a bunch of
grapes.
Dwayne asked, "What's going on? I feel like this is some top-secret
mission."
Tammy giggled, "It is, sweetheart. My mission is to make this a
birthday you'll never forget."
Dwayne said jokingly, "I'm pretty sure I won't forget the fact that my
girlfriend abducted me on my birthday."
"You'll wish to be abducted more often when I'm through with you
today." Tammy sat on Dwayne's lap and fed him grapes.
Dwayne remarked, "Promises, promises. Can I take my blindfold off
now?"
"No" replied Tammy as she got off of his lap and poured two glasses of
champagne.
"Drink up, birthday boy." Said Tammy as she handed a glass to Dwayne.
Dwayne and Tammy clinked glasses and drank the champagne.
Tammy asked, "Are you enjoying yourself?"
Dwayne smiled, "Of course I am. Can I take my blindfold off now?"
Tammy said in a singsong voice, "Patience is a virtue, I have to go to
the bathroom and change."
Dwayne said, "Hurry."
Tammy went into the bathroom and changed into a sexy black lingerie
number.
Tammy came back into the room and purred, "You can take off the
blindfold now."
Dwayne pulled off his blindfold and his eyes grew wide at seeing
Tammy. He had seen Tammy's assets a month ago, but her beauty still
took his breath away. Dwayne had been waiting for this moment a long
time. Tammy's blue eyes roamed over Dwayne's taught frame, framed with
lust.
Tammy went over to Dwayne and kissed him softly, then with increasing
passion. Their tongues dueled with each other like they were in a
fencing match. Tammy broke away from the kiss and pulled his shirt
off. Dwayne unclasped Tammy's bra. Tammy slipped off her panties and
kissed down Dwayne's chest, laving his nipples with her tongue. Dwayne
groaned as she continued to kiss softly down his torso to his penis.
Tammy unbuckled his jeans and Dwayne leaned upwards so Tammy could
pull his pants down. After this was accomplished, Tammy licked and
sucked on Dwayne's penis until he was fully erect. Tammy slid the
condom on Dwayne and rubbed her wet vagina all over Dwayne's penis.
Tammy slowly lowered herself down on Dwayne, groaning as she took him
deeper into her wet vagina. Dwayne moaned loudly as Tammy rode Dwayne
like a bucking bronco. Sweat poured off both of them as Dwayne's put
his hands on Tammy's active buttocks. Dwayne licked on Tammy's breasts
when they were thrust in his face. Tammy's nipples were hardened from
Dwayne's swirling tongue. Dwayne and Tammy kissed each other
passionately as Dwayne flipped Tammy on her back. Dwayne started to
thrust his cock into her. Tammy's face was flush with effort as Dwayne
continued to push into her. Tammy gasped and yelled out incoherently
as her orgasm overtook her. Dwayne's face turned into a grimace of
pain as Tammy's orgasm sent him over the edge, making him erupt into
her depths. Dwayne put his arms around Tammy and kissed her shoulder.
Both of them were exhausted from their exploits and closed their eyes,
to dream of what they just experienced.
At 5:00 p.m., the duo woke up. Dwayne smiled and said, "Thank you.
That was unbelievable."
Tammy kissed him on his chest and snuggled up to him, saying, "You're
welcome and you were magnificent."
Dwayne kissed Tammy on the forehead, "I love you, Tammy."
Tammy smiled and kissed Dwayne on the forehead, "I love you too. I'd
love to stay here, but we have to get cleaned up and leave."
Dwayne said, "I assume you have a party planned."
Tammy smirked and replied, "Yeah, the party is at Angel Alcove."
Dwayne whistled, "One of the most expensive restaurants in town.
Somebody had to pay some major benjamins."
"Right you are, honey. Nothing but the best for you."
Dwayne smiled, "Aww, thanks. Are we coming back here later?"
Tammy grinned sexily and answered, "Ready for more, big boy? I have
this room for the rest of the week."
Dwayne grinned, "Solid, Well, shouldn't you be getting in the shower?"
Tammy replied in a husky voice, "Aren't you going to join me?" Dwayne
jumped up as Tammy ran into the bathroom, giggling.
Catman and an associate were outside of Angel Alcove, waiting for
Tammy and Dwayne to appear. Catman asked anxiously, "You know what to
do, Black Rose?"
Black Rose replied, "I go in and poison Mrs. Wayne's drink and leave a
birthday card with the message that Big Money and Silk are supposed to
meet you and I on the rooftop of the Old Carlton Towers on OBT."
Catman smiled and said, "It's going to be on now."
Dwayne and Tammy left the hotel and arrived at Angel Alcove at 6:oo.
Dwayne thought that this was the best birthday he'd ever had. He and
Tammy had participated in an act of love. It was like both of their
souls were drawn closer together. Tammy, for her part was in a state
of bliss. She had a taste of Dwayne and wanted more. The duo stepped
out of the car and into Angel Alcove. Catman barked out, "Go!" Black
Rose got out of the car and followed Dwayne and Tammy.
Dwayne and Tammy stepped into the room and everyone yelled "Happy
Birthday!" PD, DP, Creaig, Rob, some friends from work, fellow
seniors, Dwayne's grandma, and Laquanda Lawrence were in the room.
Dwayne looked at the crowd of people in the room and was touched that
all of them showed up for his birthday. PD and DP brought out a huge
birthday cake with yellow and green frosting with 18 light candles.
Creaig smiled and said, "Make a wish, Dwayne." Dwayne walked over to
the cake and blew out the candles, wishing that his mom could be here
to see this.
Alice smiled and appeared before Dwayne. "Happy birthday, son."
Dwayne's eyes teared up as he whispered, "Hi, mom."
"Son, listen to me. Something is going to happen to your grandmother
today."
"What?"
Alice sighed, "I can't tell you anymore than that. God has rules about
divulging too much. Just be ready, okay."
"Okay."
Tammy heard the conversation and was upset at Alice's declaration.
Mrs. Wayne was more of a mother to her than her own mother was. She
didn't want her to die.
Rob asked, "What did you wish for?"
Dwayne smiled ruefully, "I wished my mom was still alive to see this."
An uneasy silence settled over the room.
Mrs. Wayne broke the silence by smiling and saying, "That's a fine
wish, Dwayne. Everyone, eat and enjoy yourselves." While everyone was
busy chatting or eating, Black Rose walked into the room and slipped
the poison into Mrs. Wayne drink. Black Rose then put the black
birthday card in the pile with the rest of the cards and left.
Dwayne cornered PD and DP and said, "Listen, my mom told me that
something was going to happen to my grandma today."
PD looked at Dwayne and said, "Does your mom visit you or something?"
Dwayne asked, "Yeah, so what's your point?"
DP said, "I think he's saying that you must be on something to be
seeing dead people."
Dwayne bristled, "C'mon, you guys gave me a magical pimp cane, for
God's sake. I know you have to believe in life beyond death."
PD said, "I'll believe it when I see it."
"I'll call her now."
DP said, "If you do that, I'll hook you up with a million dollars."
Dwayne smirked and stated, "Mom, come out here." DP smiled when he
didn't see Alice.
DP smirked, "No mom, no million."
"Son, I'm your guardian angel, not a meal ticket." replied Alice in
Dwayne's mind.
Dwayne replied, "Mom, I could've been set for a long time."
Alice chided Dwayne, "You're already rich, Pookie."
"More money can't hurt."
Alice smiled and said, "I'll be going now."
Tammy screamed, "MRS. WAYNE!" Everyone turned toward Tammmy and saw
that Mrs. Wayne was one the floor. Tammy bent down and felt for her
pulse.
Dwayne ran over to Tammy and asked in a trembling voice, "Is she?"
"No, but her pulse is weak."
DP called 911 while PD asked what was Mrs. Wayne doing. Tammy said
that Mrs. Wayne was drinking some fruit punch when she went down. The
rest of the guests put down the fruit punch. Creaig walked over to the
birthday cards, looking for some evidence when he looked at a black
birthday card addressed to Dwayne. Creaig picked up the card and
handed it to Dwayne.
Dwayne yelled, "WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH MY GRANDMOTHER'S
PAIN?"
Creaig stepped back and answered quietly, "Nobody else had a birthday
card like this."
Dwayne read the card and said to himself, "Catman, you're going to die
for this."
An ambulance appeared in front of Angel Alcove. The paramedics loaded
Mrs. Wayne into the ambulance with Dwayne in tow. Tammy, PD, and DP
got into their cars to follow Dwayne to the hospital. Creaig and
Robert watched as the ambulance sped away. Both prayed that Mrs. Wayne
would be okay because they didn't know if Dwayne would be able to live
without her in his life.
The ambulance, PD and DP, and Tammy reached the hospital in record
time. Dwayne burst out of the ambulance and followed the paramedics
into the hospital with Tammy, PD and DP following close behind. The
medics turned Mrs. Wayne over to the nurses and some doctors. Dwayne
tried to follow his grandmother to the operating room, but orderlies
turned him away.
Dwayne snarled, "Get out of my way."
Tammy held him back, "This won't help. Alice told you something like
this was going to happen."
"She told me but that doesn't mean I have to like it."
A tall, gray-haired white doctor asked, "Are you, Mr. Wayne? I'm
Doctor Rivers."
Dwayne said, "That's me. What's wrong with my grandmother?"
Rivers sighed, "You grandmother has fallen victim to the Cloud Kicker
poison. This poison totally wrecks the patient's physical well being.
There is an antidote, but we don't have it here since we rarely see
poison cases here."
Dwayne said, "Do you know where I can get the antidote?"
Rivers said, "We've already looked in most of the hospitals in the
area and they don't have any and we don't have time to search for it
in other parts of the country. Someone you know has to get the
antidote or your grandmother will die at 11:00. I'm sorry." Rivers
walked away.
Dwayne snarled at DP and PD, saying "Do you believe me now?"
PD and DP nodded their heads in agreement.
"Listen, I got a birthday card from Catman telling me and Tammy to
meet him at the rooftop of the Old Carlton Towers building on OBT."
PD said, "It's probably a trap."
Tammy said, "It's doesn't matter, we have to go get this done."
DP said, "Be careful." Tammy and Dwayne left the hospital to drive to
the old Carlton Towers building.
Tammy's Porsche hit 200 mph as they rolled into the alley that the old
Carlton Towers building was located. Tammy pressed the brakes and spun
into the parking lot of Carlton Towers. Tammy and Dwayne jumped out of
the car and yelled "Ghetto!" Big Money was wearing a black shirt, with
matching leather pants and a black trench coat. Silk was wearing a
black shirt with a red dragon on the front along with black satin
pants and black boots. Big Money said, "We don't have time to run up
some stairs." Big Money and Silk raised their canes and 40 Ounce
bottles appeared in their hands. They drank the 40 Ounce bottles and
jumped to the top of Carlton Towers.
Big Money and Silk touched down on the rooftop. Big Money turned his
cane into a double-barreled shotgun and Silk was armed with a 35 mm
pistol.
Big Money looked at Catman and angrily asked, "What the fuck do you
want?"
Catman smirked, "You didn't like my birthday present?" Big Money
pulled the trigger and shot at Catman.
Catman dodged the bullet and sighed, "Look at you, already going to
the violence."
Big Money replied in a menacing voice, "I owe you an unpleasant death,
Catman."
Catman said with scorn, "Likewise, you arrogant bastard. You were
always so damn uppity in school; you never helped the slow kids like
me. You were too busy talking shit to us. Well, now look at me. I'm
somebody in this world. You're nothing now, superhero powers
notwithstanding."
"When I'm done with you, you'll wish you were eating crayons and
riding the short bus again."
Catman snarled, "Shut up, you have no room to threaten people. I have
the antidote you're looking for. Actually, my associate Black Rose has
it."
Black Rose appears next to Catman. Black Rose was 5"10, with black
hair, hazel eyes, and was wearing a skin tight body suit.
Silk stated, "Listen, wench. You better give us the antidote and save
yourself some pain."
Black Rose looked at Silk with disdain, "Wench? I'll beat you to
within a inch of your life, you cunt."
Silk started to walk over to Black Rose, but Big Money held her back.
Catman said, "Enough! To save your precious grandmother, Big Money has
to beat me in a no-holds-barred battle to the death only using your
superpowers. No weapons. Do you accept?"
Big Money answered, "Yeah, I accept. But how do I know Black Rose
won't attack me or something?"
"By Washington Height's Honor, Black Rose won't interfere. Besides,
she won't have to. I'm going to bitch-slap you all over the place."
Big Money thought that Catman would keep his word, no one used
Washington Height's honor unless they really meant business. Alice
appeared to Dwayne and said, "You're correct about Catman, but watch
out Black Rose."
"Thanks, mom." replied Big Money.
Big Money threw his cane to Silk and Catman threw his weapons over to
Black Rose. Big Money and Catman glared at each other, waiting for the
other to attack. Catman growled at Big Money and charged at Big Money,
swinging for his jaw. Big Money avoided the swing and Ghetto Punched
Catman in the side. Catman winced in pain and jumped on Big Money,
choking him. Big Money kneed Catman in the crotch, forcing Catman to
get off of Big Money. Catman grimaced as white-hot pain shot through
him.
Catman snarled, "I thought you were too good to use street brawling."
"Fuck that honor shit."
Big Money took a vicious kick to jaw from Catman. Big Money fell to
the ground as Catman sneered at Big Money, kicking him in the ribs with
extra force being fueled by his superpowers. Big Money gasped and
tarted to spit blood as Catman pulled him up to his feet, saying, "You
never were good at fighting dirty. Let the master how you how to do
it." Catman started pummeling Big Money with blinding speed. After the
attack, Big Money was thrown against a door, bloodied and battered.
"It looks like the great Big Money is going down." remarked Black
Rose.
"It's not over yet." replied Tammy as Big Money fought back with a
superkick to Catman's jaw.
Black Rose yelled, "C'mon, you can beat the shit out of him."
Silk smirked, "You're not so confident, are you?"
Black Rose yelled, "Shut up, you stretch-marked whore!
"If I wasn't so concerned about Big Money's welfare, I'd make you take
that statement back."
Black Rose grinned and answered coldly, "Better people than you have
tried to kill me. Step in line." Silk scoffed and watched the battle
raged on.
Big Money blasted Catman with a Ghettoblaster, driving Catman to the
ground. Catman got up and blasted Big Money with an energy blast of
his own. Big Money hit the ground hard. Catman stood over Big Money,
swaying like a drunken sailor due to the punishment delivered by
Dwayne.
Catman said, "It's over, bitch."
Big Money was at the limit of his strength. He was definitely going to
need medical attention if he managed to survive.
Catman picked Big Money up and carried him to the edge of the rooftop.
"Do you like the view, Big Money, Dwayne, uppity jungle-fever having
bastard. It's the last thing you'll ever see."
Catman started to throw Big Money over the edge to the street below,
but Big Money broke out of Catman's grip and fell to the ground.
Catman said, "Why won't you die already?"
Big Money stood up slowly, "Because you're just not good enough to
beat me. Yeah, you beat the crap out of me but when it's all said and
done, I'm going to prevail. I'm going to take you out, your bitch over
there, and anybody else that has the temerity to go against me. You
always have and always will be a sorry excuse for a human being. Don't
blame me because of your fuckups over the years. If you were a real
man, you would have overcome people teasing you. My father beat the
shit out of me for 3 years before I moved to New Wales. You and your
friends pushed me around for 8 years. NO MORE! THE TIME HAS COME FOR
YOU TO ACCOUNT FOR YOUR ACTIONS!" Big Money started to glow and Catman
backed away, fear written all over his face.
Big Money said, "I beat you wish you were back in school, sniffing
glue and snapping girl's underwear right now. Oh, and do my eyes
deceive me? I think you went to the bathroom in your pants. I would've
thought that you would be past that, but I don't blame you. I remember
you saying that you would make me stop breathing." Big Money grabbed
Catman by the neck and held him over the ledge. Big Money released
Catman and Catman started falling toward his death. Big Money reached
out and caught Catman.
Catman asked, "What are you doing? Have you had a change of heart?"
Big Money looked right in Catman's eyes and said, "Say hi to the devil
for me."
Big Money dropped Catman and as he started falling toward the ground,
Big Money closed his eyes. Catman was lying on the street, clinging to
life. Big Money's whole body was surrounded by a blue aura and Big
Money pulled back his hands and yelled "GHETTOBLASTER!" The huge
energy blast burned Catman to a crisp and left a huge crater in its
wake.
Big Money slumped to the ground, exhausted from the battle. Silk
smiled and said, "Give up the antidote, bitch." Black Rose handed Silk
the antidote and said, "He just got lucky. But this doesn't mean you
get to enjoy your victory."
Silk looked at Black Rose and said, "What are you talking about?"
Black Rose smiled and said, "CHAOS BOMB!" A huge ball of black energy
exploded from Black Rose like an atom bomb. Silk was blasted off the
rooftop and the building crumbled to the ground.
Natasha whispered to Silk, "Silk, you have to get up. Big Money needs
you. C'mon, get up."
Silk pushed some rubble off of her and groaned.
Silk croaked, "What the hell happened?"
"Black Rose blew up the building." Replied Natasha.
"Is that bitch still alive?" replied Silk with a grimace.
"Unfortunately, did the antidote survive?"
Silk patted it and said, "Yeah, I don't know how I survived this." A
faint groan came from a pile 20 feet away from Silk. Silk stumbled
over to the pile and started pulling away rocks, pain shooting through
her back. She managed to clear the debris off of Big Money.
A bloodied and very bruised Big Money questioned, "Are you okay,
Silk?"
Silk said, "I've been better, but the antidote is okay."
Big Money smiled weakly, "Good, can you pick me up and get us out of
here."
Silk picked up Big Money, ignoring the pain in her back and staggered
to the Porsche, which through a stroke of luck was still there. The
white Porsche had a big dent in the roof of the car and huge dents the
sides, but it was still in relatively good shape. Silk set Big Money
in the passenger seat and then she laid down in the driver's seat.
"Natasha, I don't think I can drive. I'm in so much pain." Natasha
closed her eyes and the car disappeared in a flash of white light.
The Porsche appeared in front of the hospital. Silk stepped out of the
Porsche, still in pain but the pain wasn't as bad as before. Big Money
was also healed enough to walk under his own power.
Silk said, "Apparently Natasha transported us here and we were healed
a little bit on the way."
Silk and Big Money stormed into the hospital. Silk held the little bag
with the antidote and a nurse took the antidote from Silk.
Dr. Rivers looked at them and remarked; "PD and DP told me that they
had sent Tammy and Dwayne to get word to you two that they needed your
help. Tell Dwayne when you see him that his grandmother should be
okay. She'll have to stay here for a couple of days."
"We'll do that. Thank you, Doctor."
"No thank you, Big Money and Silk. Listen, could you two sign
something for me. My granddaughter loves you two." replied Dr. Rivers.
"It would be our pleasure, Doctor. Where are PD and DP?" asked Silk.
"They went back to their home at Pegasus Pavilion. They said that they
would be waiting for you when you got there."
Big Money answered, "Okay, Doctor." Big Money and Silk signed a
personalized autograph for Dr. Rivers and walked to the Porsche. Silk
was sufficiently healed enough to be able to drive them home.
As they got into the car, Big Money asked, "You know what, Silk?"
"What?"
Big Money said with a small smile, "I'm getting too old for this
shit."
Silk grinned slightly and replied, "I am too, Big Money." The duo sped
off to Pegasus Pavilion and a much-deserved rest.
Shonuf shook his head in sadness. Catman was definitely one of the
best field generals he's ever had. He vowed that Big Money would pay
for this someday.
"Kamal?" said Shonuf.
"Yes, Shonuf." replied Kamal
"Tell Black Rose that she's now the field general for the Golden
Glocks."
"Yes, sir." replied Kamal.
End Ch. 5
Author's Notes
Damn, I'm on a roll.I basically stayed with the script throughout. I
wasn't planning on having Black Rose become the new field general for
The Golden Glocks, but she's definitely got the potential to be just
as vicious as Catman was. I was struggling with the fight thing.
Originally, I was going to have them fight a sword duel, but I just
didn't feel right doing that right now. I was also thinking about
somehow letting Catman live, but then I figured that I couldn't really
do that because it just wouldn't be as emotionally
charged if he survived. Tis all so I wish you all
Peace, love, and hair grease.
