Chapter Eight : The Dark Cloud Also Rises
3RD POV,
THE REPTILES LOCAL BAR AND LOUNGE CLUBHOUSE
In the dimly lit main room, Jade Calister is sitting on the three seat sofa, playing Solitaire.
Amy Tooney slowly approaches her. "Jade Calister?" she said in her English accent.
Jade Calister looks up at Amy Tooney. "Amy Tooney. To what I asks about your visitation?"
"We need to chitchat." Amy said, sitting down in a armchair, crossing her leg over her other leg. "I'm sure that you're pleased with being the ringleader of The Reptiles."
"I am pleased." Jade replied, and looks at Amy. "What do you want, Amy?"
"I can tell that you're tough and a baddie girl. But you have both the drugs, Twine and Candy Rocks, in your storage room, do you not?" Amy said.
"I do." Jade said, gently laying the Solitaire cards on the coffee table. "Why do you asks?"
"I have some things for you to do, if you successful, I'll reward you." Amy said.
"And if I fail?" Jade asked.
"You will find herself back in your cell room at the Arrington Women's Prison." Amy said with a straight face.
Jade Calister and Amy Tooney exchange looks at each other.

SAUNDERS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY
THE NEXT MORNING, I drive up to my Dad's construction company in my light blue Mini Cooper car.
I cut the engine off and gets out of my car, closing the car door.
My Dad and I exchange small smiles at each other.
"Hi, Dad." I said, slowly walking up to him.
"Hey, Ang. What are you doing here?" My Dad asked.
"Nothing much, I just wanted to see you, Dad. Have you spoken to Mom?" I asked him.
"Your Mom and I talks to each other all the time." My Dad said. "What is it?"
I become a bit confused. "What are you talking about?"
"Angie, I know you. And I love you for checking up on me, but something's on your mind, so, what is it?" My Dad asked.
"It's nothing, Dad. I just wanted to check on you." I said to him.
My Dad and I exchange small smiles at each other.

AFTER I LEFT MY DAD'S CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, Yvonne and I are wandering around, taking a stroll.
"It's been a while since you and I hangout together." Yvonne said.
"Yeah. I know. You and I have been best friends since we've been preschoolers, Yvonne." I said to her.
"Yeah. And even though, Aiden and You weren't together, a part of me hoped that you two would get together. And I'm happy." Yvonne said.
"Yeah. Me too. I love Aiden. I've always loved him. And Aiden always loved me too. But even now, Amy Tooney is up to something mischievous." I said to Yvonne.
"Amy is always up to something mischievous." Yvonne said. "But I've always known that Aiden and You were couple-game."
Yvonne and I exchange smiles at each other and proceeds to take our little stroll.

TAVERN BODGE LOCAL BAR AND LOUNGE CLUBHOUSE
I slowly walks into the dimly lit main room and sees Sharron and another an older woman talking to each other.
"Hey, Angie S." Ziandra said.
"Hey, Ziandra, who's the lady?" I asked.
"Jade Calister. Ring leader of The Rebellious Reptiles." Ziandra tells me.
"Jade Calister? Aiden told me and the guys about her." I said to Ziandra.
"Yeah. By the way, Shane and Sharron are getting married." Ziandra tells me.
I smile. "Oh my gosh, really?"
"Yeah. Sharron wanted to surprise you, but, what the hell." Ziandra said.
Ziandra and I exchange small smiles at each other. And Jade Calister walks away, but glances at me.
"You must be Angie Saunders?" Jade Calister said.
"Yeah. And you're Jade Calister." I said to her.
Jade Calister smiles, sly, at me. "See you around, Angie." and she walks away.
Sharron slowly walks up to me and Ziandra. "Hey, Angie. Ziandra."
"Hey, Sharron. What was with you and Jade?" I asked her.
"Nothing much. It's just Jade being Jade." Sharron said.
"So, you know her?" Ziandra asked Sharron, a bit bewildered.
"I know of her. Jade's a bit bitchy though." Sharron said. "And Angie..."
"Shane and You are getting married. Ziandra spilled the beans about it." I tell Sharron with a smile.
Sharron, Ziandra and I exchange small smiles at each other.

JEN'S DINER
That evening, Aiden and I are sitting at the diner counter with our strawberry milkshakes.
"Shane and Sharron are getting married." I tell Aiden.
"Oh, really? That's great. I'm happy for them." Aiden said.
"And by the way, I met Jade Calister at the Tavern Bodge." I said to Aiden.
"Why was she there?" Aiden asked me.
"She and Sharron were talking about something. And Ziandra told me that Jade is the ring leader of The Reptiles." I said to Aiden.
"Jade Calister is toughness." Amy Tooney said in her English accent, sitting at the diner counter.
Aiden and I looks at her and Amy smiles, mischievously.
"What do you want, Amy?" Aiden asked her.
"Angie knows what I want." Amy said, grinning, mischievously, at me. "Don't you, Sweet Angie?"
Amy and I exchange annoyed looks at each other.
