“Ah, just who I wanted to see!” Enrique exclaimed, upon seeing the Solly brothers at the counter. But their attention was elsewhere.

“Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing!” Tony shouted at Enrique and the Solly brothers.

Lucas stared at Tony. “What is this?” he growled.

Tony placed his newspaper on the bench and stood up. “This, my friend—is retribution.”

The doors to the bank unlocked and opened from the outside. One by one, they entered: Tony’s men—armed to the teeth. Screams of panic erupted inside the bank. The mother by the door was in shock. She immediately got knocked to the ground by the intruders. The two bank employees were thrown to the ground as well. The little girl rushed to her mother’s side to help her up. Tony grinned. “Told you to stay away from the doors.”

Bringing up the rear was Hachiuma and his guard of Thai mercenaries. Ramon walked over to Tony and handed him a pistol and the bank door keys they had acquired prior to the operation. “Here ya go, boss.” Tony pocketed the keys and cocked back the gun.

“Get outta here,” Mark muttered under his breath to Enrique. The manager slowly began to back up.

“STAY WHERE YOU ARE!” Tony bellowed, pointing his gun at Enrique, who gasped in panic. “Right there—that’s a good boy. No one moves unless told to.” Tony paced around the bank, taking in the frightened expressions on the people’s faces. “Right then, everyone to the center. Gather ‘round in front of the counters and have a seat. Get comfy.” Tony eyed the Solly brothers. “You two pricks stay right where you are—you’ll be dealt with in a minute.” Tony pointed his gun at Enrique. “You as well, Smiley. Stay put.” The hostages did as they were told without question. Hachiuma’s eyes followed Tony as he worked.

“Any sort of weapon on you?” Lucas muttered to Mark.

“Nothing. We need to contact our guys somehow.”

The Solly brothers had come with two other men, who were waiting outside the bank at this very moment: Zerneck Wells and Brody Sasso. “They’ll figure out something,” Lucas whispered. “Unless they were both sleeping, they saw these guys rush in here with guns.”

Tony stood beside Ramon and surveyed the layout. “Keep the hostages in line. Secure the exits—keep it locked down and get the windows covered.”

“Will do.” Ramon began directing the men to their positions.

“Alright, boss, we’re ready to make the withdrawal,” Tony informed Hachiuma.

“Good.” Hachiuma spoke briefly to his guard in Thai, then followed Tony.

“Jack Solly’s vault. You can access it?” Tony asked Enrique. Enrique glanced at the Solly brothers.

“Don’t—look at them,” Hachiuma growled through gritted teeth. “Your business is with us, not them.”

“Yes, I-I can do it,” Enrique stuttered.

“Then lead the way,” Tony instructed. “But before you do that, have you contacted the police? The silent alarm?”

“No,” Enrique answered truthfully. “I was told not to move, I would never—”

“Contact the police,” Hachiuma demanded. “Do it now.”

Enrique was perplexed but did as he was told. He was drenched in a cold sweat and was too petrified to think about what he was doing.
