Savana wakes with a gasp and a small cry. "It's okay, Shrimp, we're here." Jasper says immediately coming over to her side. "We're here with you."

Savana looks for her iPad. "I think it got left upstairs. This place has everything else, Grayson, see if it has a pen and paper?" Grayson immediately leaves to look for the wanted items.

In the mean time Savana just looks at Jasper and waits patiently. "We are under attack." Savana's eyes open wide. "Brice tried to wake you and couldn't so he handed you over to Grayson while he went and dealt with the issue." Jasper sneers. He really hopes that it's the sheriff that is attacking, he would love nothing more than for him to be permanently dealt with.

Jasper is about to continue when Grayson comes back with the desired items. Savana thanks him as she takes them. It doesn't take her long to write out, "Is it the sheriff?"

"We don't know. Brice hadn't been informed of that yet. Not many are foolish enough to attack him though. He is known to deal rather thoroughly with those that go against him. He has a very solid hold on things in his territory and even beyond. Basically if he wants something, he gets it from the other mafias. My past owners about pissed their pants if they heard Brice was coming to visit them. Even if it was to renew treaties. They hadn't done anything to betray Brice, but they were still very much afraid of him. 

"Considering that he's younger than most of them by decades that says a lot. My ex owners would be horrified to know that I'm now here. They would be mourning for me, I think." Jasper says that last rather reflexively.

"Why?" Savana is confused on that. Brice to her is one of the best people she's ever met.

"Shrimp, other than you and any friends he might have, Brice isn't a nice guy. He rarely kills simply, he usually tortures and drags out punishments for as long as he deems necessary. There is no better protector, as you have seen, but if you go against him, he will destroy you. I don't think there is any one better to protect you than Brice Jensen."

Savana stands up and leans against a wall. There is a click and part of the wall moves and monitors come on, cameras  that are linked into the security system. The fight in all its glory unfolds before them.

That's all it takes to send Savana flashing back to the night she was taken and her parents killed. As she watches a man fall from being shot she falls and screams as she falls. She's crying hysterically as she remembers that night in vivid detail.

Jasper and Grayson run to her side and hold her between them. They are doing all they can to calm her down and they hope that the panic room is as sound proof as they believe it to be. They hadn't even heard any of the gun fire so they believe they are alright, but if not Savana is giving away their location.

Brice is having a grand time. There is nothing he likes better than letting off steam by shooting at people. It's been awhile since he's been able to indulge in his favorite past time. People are too terrified of him to cross him. It makes for a boring life, but that also makes for good business. Well, depending on the business. Some business it's better for things to not be so calm.

He keeps a strict watch on weapons coming any where near his territory and so he knows which of his neighboring mafias is arming up. Of course the other mafias have no idea that he has such strict watch on things.

For the most part he doesn't care what they do, but he keeps an eye on weapons and flesh trading. There is no way he's going to be caught unaware with the weapons and he's doing his best to take down the flesh trading.

His allies all know that he frowns on it. Partakes once in a while, but frowns on it. So most of them have backed off as well.

He would rather they stopped altogether but until he does, and he can't until it's shut down, it's unlikely that they will.

It's been a long day and an even longer night. Not even the adrenaline is doing him much good right now. He wants to finish this fight off and let the others know that they can come out now. He hopes that Savana didn't wake up. It would be best if she just slept through the whole thing.

He knows that's highly unlikely. Especially with how restless she had been. He finds it strange that she didn't wake up when he tried to wake her though. He shrugs at the thought. It doesn't really matter. What does matter is taking care of this ass hole that ruined her life and so many others. 

"Where is that fucking coward?" Brice demands when KK finds him for another update.

"He finally decided to show himself once more, Boss. That's him coming up to us now." KK is happy to tell Brice. An unhappy, tired Brice is a very mean Brice.

Brice is once more smiling that evil little smile that makes people shudder and fear for their lives. The smile Brice would never let Savana see him wear.

"Well, then, it's time to end this little party isn't it?" Brice says. Taking careful aim he shoots and fires two shots that he knows will incapacitate rather than kill. Then he turns his attention to the one that was flanking Sheriff Hudson. He hopes that it's not just another unknown, but the rogue fed, Agent Lawson. He would love to hand him over to Anderson all gift wrapped.

There is a dangerous sparkle in his eyes as he lets out the next few shots. 

The two men are down and barely moving. By then the few men that were left throw down their guns. It was a matter of a simple hit and grab, they hadn't planned on such a blood bath. Each man had been a deadly force to encounter. Far deadlier than numbers had accounted for.

Not even having an inside man to open the gates had been enough.

As soon as the invaders throw down their weapons they are instructed to lie down with their hands behind their heads, like the cops have them do. His men know what to do and they scurry about securing the prisoners.

Brice and KK on the other hand take their time working their way over to the sheriff and his little sidekick. "Well, looks like your fun time is over Hudson." Brice is more than happy to tell the man that is shooting fire at him with his eyes. It doesn't even phase Brice.

Brice turns his attention over to Lawson, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Agent Lawson. I know some people that will be very happy to see you. You know prisons just love to have people like you both. Law enforcement officers are especially welcomed. There are all kinds of fun activities waiting for you both.

"Especially when they find out that you've been selling not just adults, but children too. Won't they just love that?" Brice tells the two men. Lawson turns white and sick, Hudson just ignores the words but if looks could kill Brice would be dead several times over.

Brice doesn't like Hudson's attitude and moves over closer to him. He takes all of Hudson's weapons away. Hudson is far too intimidated by Brice to have used them any way. He hadn't realized just how fucking terrifying Brice Jensen could be.

Brice takes out his knife. "You know, I haven't really slept in nearly forty-eight hours. I was so looking forward to sleeping this night and you had to come along and ruin it. Although, I do thank you for providing me with my favorite past time. It's not every day that I can legally shoot at police officers and federal agents."

Brice knows exactly where he can cut without making Hudson bleed to death, but it does get blood all over him.

He cuts out the bullets to help the doctor out a bit. The screams Hudson gives him is music to his ears. "You know, you caused Savana Carter a lot of pain. Such a sweet and beautiful girl. It was bad enough that you took her from her family. But that you killed her father in front of her, that was so much worse. But you know the worse part was, your men made her watch as you raped and stabbed to death her mother.

"You were imagining that her mother was Savana, weren't you?" Brice demands as he puts pressure on the bleeding wound.

"Yes, fuck you. That hurts."

"Not interested, thanks, I prefer females like Savana. So innocent, so sweet. Her kiss, her first kiss was incredible. It is so addicting.

"Just one question, your brother, Grant. Why did you kill him?"

Hudson chuckles, "My so called brother was not the saint she thought him to be. He was going to take her out a few more times then have sex with her before selling her. We fought over that, not her being sold. She was worth far more as a virgin than used goods."

"That still doesn't tell me why you killed him. Just a few dollars more? Really? You truly are pathetic. Especially since your so called brother was actually your son, wasn't he?"

That gets a reaction from Hudson. "How the fuck did you know that? The adoption was sealed. The bitch that had him had a lovely little accident shortly after my parents took custody. That wasn't on me."

"Well, aren't you all just a lovely little family?" Brice says getting up as the doctor comes closer. He kicks out and hits the ex sheriff on the head knocking him unconscious.

He turns his attention to the fed. "Lawson, you should have left the darker side of life alone and not gotten yourself immersed in it. How many people did you help to sell? How many lives did you ruin?"

Lawson is looking at the blood spattered mafia boss and is terrified. "You might not have known the truth, Lawson, but you have heard the rumors. You don't fuck with me. You messed in my life so now your life is forfeit. Your partner and boss will be here soon. They are already aware that you were working with this piece of shit, but that you are here trying to force an illegal entry? Well, that just makes things even easier. You know what's the best part? It's all caught on tape. Or video rather since we don't use tape.

"Don't worry, I won't let you be put in solitary confinement to think about your sins all alone. I'll make sure that you and your buddy here, are where everyone else is. You'll be able to make new friends."

By then sirens are heard. "I guess the fun time is over now. Don't worry I'll keep you and asshat company until you are taken away." Brice says and KK is snickering.

"We have any word on the gate guards?" Brice demands. The others had reported in. Some are severely wounded, but none of them are dead. The only ones he hasn't heard from are the gate guards.

"Calloway is hurt bad, that first ambulance will be for him. Johnston, bled out. Apparently Calloway didn't have time to kill him before he had to fire on the enemy trying to breach us."

"So it's verified that Johnston betrayed me?" Brice is furious.

"Yes, it was caught on video. Johnston turned just as Calloway fired. He goes down, Calloway sends the alarm and sets the defenses that Johnston had taken down. Then starts firing as fast as he can. He reloads and empties another clip before he's taken down." KK looks at the newcomers.

"Here comes the feds, boss." KK gives Brice a heads up. Brice arranges his face to hide his emotions. He finds this terrifies people even more than when he does show his emotions. They can't tell if he's pleased with them or going to shoot them.

"Mr. Jensen?" Anderson says coming up to him.

"I have a gift for you, Agent Anderson, Director Bishop." Brice then motions to the two prone men before him.

"Agent Lawson dared to join in on the attack?" Anderson exclaims in disbelief. He knows that Lawson is aware of Brice's reputation.

"Right along side of this ass hole the whole way. Gentlemen, meet Sheriff Hudson. The lovely scumbag responsible for several of the people at the auction the other night."

Direct Bishop smiles and it isn't a nice one, "This is the one responsible for my granddaughter being sold?"

Lawson hadn't realized that his friend is the one that took the Director's granddaughter. He swallows heavily at what he's gotten himself into. With the Director's weight, the prosecutor won't be asking for them to be put in solitary, they will be going to general and he doesn't give them, either of them, very long to live after that.

Jensen truly lives up to his reputation.

"Yes, sir, this is the one. I have confirmation on her whereabouts, if my men are up to strength still, all systems are go for the raid tomorrow night."

The Director looks at him like he's crazy. "You really think that you will be up to full strength by then?"

Brice just shrugs, "The team is small, an extraction team. If I was going in to deal with them, I would put it off, but the extraction team wasn't injured badly. They likely will be more than ready to go. Go ahead and make sure your team is ready, I'll let you know if there is a need to cancel things."

Anderson looks at him confused. He doesn't know of any reason why Brice would cancel a raid on a fellow mafia. "What would cause you to cancel the raid?"

"I've heard tell of a possible party to be held there. I was unable to get a date on when the party is to be held. If it's tomorrow then we'll have to wait for another night."

"Why? Wouldn't the chaos of the party be helpful?" The Director cuts in.

Brice is shaking his head, "It will be one of his allied mafias. They will have brought some of their men, it would make things far more difficult for my men to get in unseen and out without your granddaughter being hurt. Also, the other mafias would likely be offered the girls as party favors. She likely would be too busy keeping them happy for us to be able to grab her and leave."

The Director starts swearing. 

"Relax, I'm generally invited to these things, and since they are culling girls out of my territory they will want to make sure that I see them as a friend rather than a foe." Brice says but there is a light in his eyes that warns Anderson about the night ahead. He doesn't think there will be many left alive for their team to worry about. He just hopes that the slaves and domestic help aren't hurt.

It doesn't take them long to get what other formalities they need to finished. By then Brice just wants to sleep.

Finally the feds, police and paramedics are gone. "Go, check on her Brice, and then get some sleep. I'll deal with the clean up." KK tells the man that is clearly pushing his physical limits.

Brice doesn't even say anything just nods and heads into the house.
