Chapter 4 - Deleting Gambino

It didn't take long for John to be released from FBI custody . It was determined that John acted in self defense.

Agent Emilia tasked two agents to drive him home .

By the end of the week he had received $250000 dollars as insurance payout for both of his parents death . $15000 was spent on a close casket funeral service .

On Saturday evening the day after the funeral John had dressed in a black hoodie and shorts in preparation for going to the gym.

As he stepped outside he saw a blacked out SUV in front of his driveway. A tall man with long hair and a full beard was standing beside the car .

" Get in." The man ordered.

As John came close to the man he noticed the bulge by his waist which indicated that he was carrying a gun. He thought of grabbing the the gun at that moment but decided against it as it would not be a good look after the Harlem incident so he entered the car which drove for about half an hour before stopping in front of a pizza place in Queens, New York.

John was then taken to the back room behind the kitchen area of the pizza place and there met a man , about fifty years old,clean shaved with a bald head. This was Elias Fergucio ,head of the the Fergucio crime family, a very ruthless man who would go to any extent to achieve his desires. It was said that Elias was more Mexican than Italian in the way he handled his enemies and he had loads of enemies.

" So this is the boy who saved my life." Elias came forward kissing John on the cheek before continuing,(apparently he was the person in the G Wagon.)

" My condolences for your parents, but I have to ask , where did you learn to move like that?"

But John ignored the question and asked,

" Why am I here don Fergucio?" John asked, his tone showing that he was only there for business and not to fraternize.

" Straight to the point eh " Elias replied , sighed deeply and then continued,

" As you saved my life I owe you a favor so name anything you want and if it is within my power I will do it."

" In that case , I want to know who called the hit on you , where he lays his head and some weapons ". John replied.

"The person who called the hit is Charlie Gambino, the head of the Gambino family. Don't think that because you took down a couple of hitters you'll be able to take down the head of the Gambino family. Forget about revenge kid."

" No problem I will be coming for the weapons tomorrow " John said before leaving.

The next day by 4 pm in the evening John made his way to the pizza place but was taken to another location. It was there that he shown a collection of weapons and accessories that would make anyone even people who hate guns to fall in love with guns.

He chose a dark SIG MCX spear rifle chambered in 6.8*51mm rounds , a Glock 22 , silencers for both guns ,ammo , some grenades and a machete.

He also spent some time getting the feel of the guns before the appointed time. By seven, he took a nap so as to be mentally prepared when he arrives at his objective.

By midnight, John took an old Corolla that Elias gave to him and loaded it up. He was wearing a kevlar bullet proof vest under his hoodie which was only able to stop small arms . But when he arrived a block from the Gambino family estate he wore a steel and ceramic plate body armor.

The first point of attack was the guard house, he spotted three men , one inside and two standing by the gate all armed with mp4s.

The success of this operation relied on these men not firing a shot . According to Elias, everyone that mattered in the Gambino family was here at the moment, it was actually to discuss the failure of taking out Elias Fergucio. Apparently Elias was encroaching in the Gambino family business and so he needed to be taken out.

The large manor has security of about twenty five guys plus the made men and the boss which numbered about eleven . This meant that if the operation was to be successful beyond reproach thirty six men needed to die.

The walkway was too exposed to prevent both forward and flanking attacks. With every simulated plan ending with failure John decided to follow the words of Caesar, "when in doubt attack."

So he attacked, he walked close to the walkway, a place where the security lights couldn't reach and then in quick succession fired three shots . Two hit the guards at the gate squarely on their chest. The third guard who was in the gate house was struck in the head.

John then crept into the compound, his footsteps calm and calculated, he had slung the riffle across his back , holding the Glock on one hand and the machete in the other .

Humans were never born to walk in darkness and so people were generally weaker during nighttime and that is why the whole Gambino estate became John's hunting ground.

As he was creeping about, he came across two guards chatting, he couldn't care less about what they were chatting about as he shot them both .

And just like that John mowed through the property which was pretty easy as the guards were tired and sloppy. After clearing the compound, he went straight for the door not knowing that there were two guards standing behind that door. So immediately his gun barrel passed through the door, one of the guards grabbed the barrel and yanked him forward forcefully which turned out to be a bad idea as John used the momentum of the yanking to swipe at the guys neck with the machete while shooting the other bewildered guard as he fell to the floor.

John then took a deep breath and steeled himself before checking out room by room until he found the conference room where the boss and the made men were having a meeting.

Without any warning, he lobbed two grenades into the room before closing it . Within seconds the grenades exploded and screams of pain could be heard from inside the room . John then walked into the room and saw that many were dead and some were alive, in pain and disorganized so he did what anyone in his position would do and shot them all in the head .

John checked his watch , te the time was 1 AM and according to the timer he had set , he had another hour to complete the objective.

Yes killing the Gambino family was just a side quest , the main quest was stealing the Gambino family wealth.

So he started searching, he searched for about twenty minutes before he found a trapdoor that led to another section of the basement where he saw the very thick doors that guarded the the vault but he was ready for that as he produced a pouch of thermite powder which was placed strategically and lit .

Within twenty minutes the heat generated from the thermite has caused part of the door melt but not entirely that John could pass so he fixed grenades connected with strings into the openings . After getting to a safe distance he yanked on the strings pulling out the pins and soon the explosion tore open the door revealing wonders to John as he saw stacks of cash mounted on shelves and on the floor . He also saw bars of gold , diamonds and art just lying around. He had truly hit the jackpot , but he didn't mope around for long, he began to gather the money in trash bags and began loading them up in one of the Gambino's vans . Within an hour he was done loading all the money and within twenty minutes all the jewels and gold were loaded up leaving the paintings behind as they could be traced.

And soon at exactly 2:45 am he left the Gambino estate with the van , stashing it in a place that he has previously prepared coming back an hour later to retrieve the vehicle that he had borrowed from Elias.

And after erasing any evidence that would implicate him, he lay on his bed and fell into a deep sleep.
