ALL MY WIVES ARE BEAUTIFUL ELVES



Jessica's voice cut through the room, filled with gravity and determination. Her stern expression conveyed the weight of her words.

"So I don't need to remind everyone of what happened a week ago. Sadly, it was unexpected and has taken out one of our own, Kane," she began, her tone unyielding.

"We were unprepared, relaxed, complacent and definitely not attentive enough which for a gang, is terrible!!" Her words dripped with remorse and anger, each syllable laced with a potent mix of regret and frustration.

"We can't let what happened then happen again!" she declared, her fist clenching as if to emphasize the point.

"Which is why to ensure it doesn't happen again, we are the ones taking the war to them!!" Her eyes blazed with a fierce determination, casting an intense glow in the room. It was clear that Jessica was resolute in her decision, and her proclamation hung heavily in the air.

The room held a tense atmosphere as the weight of the conversation settled in. Kan, ever the reluctant combatant, couldn't help but voice his concerns.

"How do we do that?!!" He interjected, his voice tinged with a mixture of apprehension and a genuine search for answers. His nature didn't align with violence, and the recent incident had been more a product of circumstance than choice.

Yet, Kan understood the realities of the world he'd entered, the compromises he'd made by being part of a gang. He knew there were times when certain actions were necessary, even if they weren't palatable.

Ellie, sensing his unease, placed a comforting hand on his lap, offering a silent reassurance. She then rose alongside Jessica, a sense of purpose emanating from her as she took over the narrative.

"I was going to tell you earlier, Kan. However, since everyone is here, we will go straight to the point," Ellie began, her voice steady and resolute, ready to address the pressing matter at hand.

The room brimmed with tense focus, each member absorbing Ellie's revelations. The gravity of their situation hung palpably in the air.

"After getting you and Kane to the hospital, I and Jess went back to the scene for clean up. We couldn't leave the bodies as they were and to make sure none of your items or anything led back to us. The police may not ever get involved with this but the other gang members could track it to us. That in itself would be terrible considering how unprepared we are at the moment," Ellie began, her voice steady and matter-of-fact.

Her gaze flicked toward Jessica, acknowledging their collective effort. "However, in the process of cleaning up, we discovered one of the bodies was still alive and able to speak. Jess managed to 'convince' him and struck a deal with him," Ellie said, a glimmer of satisfaction in her eyes as she glanced at Jessica.

"He needed our help and we needed information. Who they were, where they were based and everything!!" Ellie continued, her determination unwavering.

Kan, his own memories still a little muddled, interjected with a hint of uncertainty. "I don't remember much but I think one of them mentioned something about some Gecko brotherhood?!"

Ellie's proud smile at Kan's confirmation was unmistakable. "Actually, you are right," she confirmed.

"We confirmed the information given to us by the lone survivor through Kane. Indeed, they are a gang known as the Gecko brotherhood, occupying the same territory as us. The no man's land or otherwise, forgotten zone," Ellie shared, laying out the grim reality they faced.

However, Mendy, ever the analytical mind, raised a critical point. "But...that doesn't make any sense!" he interjected, causing the group to turn their attention to him.

"If the information is correct as alluded by you, then certainly there's a flaw in it or at least a stone unturned!" Mendy proposed, his tone filled with skepticism.

The room held its breath as Ellie encouraged him to elaborate further. Mendy continued, his voice clear and determined. "Okay, so they are a gang together with us in the same territory? Well, that means they are up and coming? Right?"

Jessica, never one to be caught off guard, replied, "Not exactly, they've been in existence for far longer than us according to what Kane said."

"Still, my point still stands. Since they are no more than us and are in the forgotten streets, it means they are a low-level gang. Which is why I say there's a flaw because how come they came into possession of those weapons you guys brought back that are not even in the market when I checked?!!!" Mendy pointed out, his suspicions taking center stage.

Ellie, considering Mendy's words, was about to offer an explanation when she paused, realizing the significance of what he had said. She then proceeded to share what they had gathered about the enigmatic weapons, painting a clearer picture of their formidable adversaries.

Ellie's voice carried a somber gravity as she delved into the unsettling details. Her words hung in the room, each sentence sharpening the focus of the gathered members.

"Well, I was going to go into that," Ellie began, her tone measured and deliberate. "The guy we managed to apprehend did mention a few things about those strange bat weapons. He didn't say anything tangible except for the fact that only the four of them on the scene along with two lieutenants that they have in their gang have those weapons."

She paused for a beat, allowing the weight of her words to settle. The room seemed to hold its breath in anticipation.

"So they are well structured then? Two lieutenants and from the looks, the three men with their leader, Silo, have to be enforcers, correct?" Mendy interjected and Ellie confirmed with a nod.

"He did mention interestingly though," Ellie continued, her eyes glinting with an edge of intrigue, "that the weapons came about when their leader, whom was confirmed by name to be Silo by Kane, went on a mission with the two lieutenants and returned with a crate containing the weapons."

The revelation hung in the air, casting a shadow over the room. The implications were stark: their adversaries possessed not only formidable arms but a leader of strategic cunning and audacity. The group exchanged uneasy glances, the gravity of the situation sinking in.
