Chapter 3
Sarge waited anxiously in the visitors area for his sister to arrive....of course it wasn't his real sister but Bella,an agent who was to be his liaison between prison and the agency.
Finally after what seemed like an eternity in walked Bella,long black hair,red jumper and jeans,it was a sight for sore eyes after the last 2 days.
Bella:"Hey bro"
Sarge:"h..hey sis"
Bella came towards him to give him a hug but the guards shot her an off limits glance.
they sat down at opposite sides of the table and made small talk keeping up the pretence of being brother and sister until the guard moved away
Sarge:"You up to speed ?"
Bella:"Yep......there's only one way to do this"
Sarge:"What ?"
Bella:"Your orders are to kill Cine"
Sarge:"****!....how am i supposed to do that ? isn't there another way ? get him transferred"
Bella:"He's just been transferred here plus there isn't the time,he is gonna see you sooner rather than later and then you're done......take him out"
Sarge:"Listen lady.i'm not ****ing Jack Bauer,ive never killed anyone in cold blood before"
Bella:"You agreed to this assignment,that little girl is depending on you,do your ****ing job and then get the info from that sick bastard"
Sarge watched as Bella grew visibly more agitated
Sarge:"Whats your personal investment in this ?"
Bella:"I just want this si....."
Sarge:"Don't bull**** me,ive got enough lies circling around me right now"
Bella paused for a moment
Bella:"One of his victims was a friend of mine"
Sarge's faced mellowed,reflecting his sympathy
Bella:"Have you ever seen the wrecked and mutilated body of someone you loved and know it's within your power to avenge that someone ?"
Sarge:"No.......and i hope i never will"
Bella:"So do i.....now do what you have to do"
Bella got up from the table before Sarge could speak and made her way to the exit.
Bella made her way to her car and drove off,once out of sight of the prison she pulled over and changed clothes.
30 minutes later she was standing on a mountain road next to her car,now dressed in a gray suit with a white blouse,her badge and gun holstered to her right side,she was overlooking LA,her appointment in the valley wasn't for another 20 minutes and she needed some air.
Bella took a deep breath as she surveyed the supposed city of angels,the place where dreams come true,she knew better,in truth it was the land of lost souls.
Ganbangers now so entrenched in a way of life that even the few that wanted out had little chance,their hopes suffocated by the anger and their voices drowned out by gunfire,on the other side there were bored rich kids who raised themselves and looked for an outlet of affection anywhere they could find it,most of them were ****ing,drinking and shooting/snorting before they were even old enough to drive,seeking for a way to feel,then there were the dreamers,the endless string of guys thinking they could be the next Bruce Willis littering up the restaurants waiting tables hoping an agent would notice them....for the wannabe starlets it was worse,arriving hoping to be the next Meryl Streep and realising their destiny lay as the 3rd tier Jenna Jameson....yup the land of dreams indeed
She got into her car and drove down to a salubrious mansion just passed the elite casting agency,there she saw pretty young things hoping for movie roles."They'll be smoking crack and dick by the end of the month" thought Bella as she drove into her destination,the home of porn baron JAL
She entered and was ushered into his office through a waiting room full of silicone enhanced women.
JAL stood up from his chair and held out his ring covered hand,he was a well built guy with a perma tan and expensive looking silk shirt.......Bella blanked the hand shake offer and sat down.
JAL:"So what can i do for you ? looking for a movie deal ? hehehehehe"
Bella:"Hardly,you don't do movies about women with brains and class do you ?"
she fired back.......JAL sank slightly into his chair
Bella:"I'm here about this man"
she shoved a pic of NDX across the table to him,he recognized it instantly
JAL:"Errrrr......why would you think we have anything to do with a serial killer ?"
He looked nervous now,sweat visible on his forehead
Bella:"Is it true that aside from your more glamorous movie ventures in the porn world you also run a grubby site called slampoles that specialises in degrading women ?"
JAL:"I can assure you all of that is an act...the women are in on it,playing a role....."
Bella:"You're still selling the image of women as nothing but pieces of meat to abused by men as worthless bar their *****es......but that's not the point,you make a lot of money off that site and this man was buying in bulk,i want to know why and where it was going"
JAL:"Just a big fan i guess"
Bella:"I don't have time for bull****,when someone buys that much it has a bigger use than his own personal spank bank,he is obviously distributing within some sort of community,i want to know where"
JAL:"Look all i know is he pays on time and...."
Bella:"I said no bull****,i don't think someone like you wants me investigating him do you ? i'm not the gentle type,i leave footprints,now give up some info or i start making you my own personal interest case"
JAL:"Ok ok ok"
he wrote down an address on a piece of paper,Bella looked at it and then put it in her pocket,she shot another glance at JAL and then left,feeling like she needed a shower........at least she had a lead that may help Sarge.......
