Chapter 40 - The Safe - Nevermind, Im not good at these things (1/2)

”What?! You better not let her go now, understand me?! I'd even give you my M134 if you guys became together.” he said.

”Really~? I thought you'd die first before you hand over that gun?” I said.

”Well, I did say that. It would be a nice wager though. Screw it! I'll give you the M134 if you guys hooked up! I swear on my wife!” he exclaimed.

I immediately snorted and he looked at me with confusion and he said, ”What?”

”Nothing.” I said with a smile.

”What?!” he asked again.

”Nothing!” I said again with a bigger smile.

He threw me a suspicious look and he grumbled while working because he can't figure out what I meant by the smile. We were about to finish checking this place out but I found a safe behind the huge painting on the wall. Both our eyes lit up and we highfived. I cracked my knuckles and I began finessing it. Oscar wanted to just blowtorch it, but he agreed to let me crack it first.

”Be quiet, yeah?” I said to Oscar.

I placed my ear close in the safe and I began spinning the combination lock around slowly. I hear a faint click on my ears and I turned slowly on the different side. I spend about 10 minutes on trial and error and we heard the safe opening with the final click.

”Good job kid! Those hands of yours are crazy, your hearing too! HAHAHAHA!” Oscar praised with an ecstatic expression.

We opened the safe and found cash, jewelry and a few stacks of paper. We then found two black cases at the bottom. The first case contains a Remington 700 with a scope and a suppressor while the other contains two Glock 19s with extended magazines and a combat knife. Besides the cases are 5 boxes each of 9mm rounds and .308 Winchester rounds. We both looked at each other then he tossed a coin.

”Heads.” I said.

The coin flew in the air and then it landed on the floor. It was heads. I took the case with the Glock 19s but I placed both of them at my holsters which used to be empty. I grabbed the ammunition boxes and I placed it in my bag first along with Oscar's share. We closed the safe and marked the house then we went outside. We were all smiles when the two of us headed outside and the group gave us confused looks.

I noticed that my group hasn't come out yet and Oscar's group has.

”Why are the two of you smiling?” Chris said.

I opened my jacket and Oscar pointed to our cases.

”We found guns.” We both said at the same time.

”What?! You lucky bastards.” my uncle said.

The group gave envious reactions and shocked reactions at the same time.

”Why is Sky's group taking so long?” Oscar asked.

”I remember that there was someone inside and Kaley is talking to them.” Arnel said.

”You aren't gonna go there kid?” he said.

”Hah! I think she could handle it. I remember this place has a family of three inside. If I recall correctly, their daughter's name is Alex. I've played basketball with her a few times.” I said.

”Oh? What was she like?” they asked.

”In basketball? Definitely better than me, she was in the varsity. She's very tall and could easily dunk.” I said.

A few moments pass, I saw Kaley and the rest walk outside. They seem to be in high spirits. The recruitment must have gone smoothly. Before I even got to talk, Jared walked up to me and pointed at my torso.
