Chong had known exactly where to go, and who to find.
His mind worked over 2 things. Who was coming and who he had to get.
Too many things happening at once. And for not being Myllyanna?s right hand. he sure did have a lot of shit to take care of. And if Myllyanna was calling a few people, that meant he was getting pushed to the lower end of the ranks, Wither or not he wanted to or earned it.
He thought maybe it was because of Ami.
Shoving his hands in his pockets, he sulked through the West End Streets; Sulk wasn?t what he would have called it. His face wore an expression of thoughtful anger. The gleam of a silver lotus around his neck in the cold dark let others know who he was and who he was with. May not mean a lot on the other side of town. But around the Onyx Lotus, it meant everything.
He checked on the shops front as he walked by it. Just a glance from the corner of his eye. No one would screw with it, even if it didn?t have wards galore covering the thing.
A few buildings down was what he wanted.
Skipping a few steps, he went up to the front door and knocked, the windows where dark as if no one was home. He knocked once more, rapping the back of his hand against the front door.
One hand on the railing, he swung his feet over the stoop railing and was off around the back. The dim glow of back light was the first to welcome him as he heard the bolt slide back from the rear entrance to the house. He heard the evening game of cards being played in the dining room. It was a small house, but big enough to House a few of the Lotus Yakuza the Mistress didn?t want around the house yet.
?Yokio,? he nodded as he passed the others at the table, heading into the living room. A stolen anshi in hand. Throwing back a heavy gulp, he threw the cap at Yokio. One of the newest members.
?You and Hao, get house bags. Tap 3 others, we are headed out.? He downed the rest of the beer and flung the empty bottle to Hao who slammed it on the end table. Yokio and Hao were already talking to the other three as Chong was already down the basement stairs to get a few extra ?toys? for the party.
