Chapter 8

Everyone was open-mouthed.

As the officers walked up to the door, one noticed a hole near the top of the door.

“What is this?!” the officer said.

Andrew looked at the whole and exclaimed, “Hu, I guess it he did manage to hit the building. I will have the charge him with the repair bill.”

“What are you talking about, sir?” said the first officer.

“What? You didn’t see the gun in his hands? He shot it and clearly missed me, but I originally thought he missed the whole building too. Guess he managed to hit there” said Andrew.

“Gun?! He has a gun and shot at you?”

“I believe I already said he had a gun and the bullet whole clearly shows what he hit. Hard to classify that as shot 'at' me when he can’t aim to save his own life.”

Andrew strolled into the office space and over to the desk where he had the plans for his training site and shuffled through for the contract. After located the needed documents, he handed them to the officers. He then shot a quick text to Jackson.

(officers at my site. FIX IT.)

As the officers read over the documents, they quickly began to realize that the man in front of them was right. This was not an EISEN Group site anymore. Clearly signed were Emily EISEN and a Mr. Liam of the Dreadnought Investment group on behalf of the Fire Dragon CORP parent company.

Shit, Dreadnought Investment …. That was the largest real estate company in the whole area! It was worth billions! And they were listed as a subsidiary of this Fire Dragon Corp? as officers they knew OF various large companies that they provided security for and knew who the big players were but not much else. Dreadnought Investment was one NO ONE messed with, for ANY reason. They each began to feel a cold sweat on their backs, and they realized just what kind of force owned the property they were not harassing.

Just then the ranking officer's phone rang.

“hello-…. yes, …. yes, sir right away sir.”

Andrew who was standing just a few feet away smiled wryly.  While it was true, he had better hearing than most, he did not need it to overhear the racket coming from the other end of the line.

“You worthless piece of shit! Do you know who you are harassing? The Dreadnought Investment group? Really?! If you piss off any of their staff, you are done! You will be forced to never show your face in this town again! Do you know who paid for all our new equipment? DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT! Do you know who makes sure our department is funded? DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT! Give that idiot who called you there a good slap for good measure!” Click and the line went dead.

Both officers looked at each other as their faces drained of color. Who had they just provoked? Even if this was a simple day laborer, if he belonged to DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT, they were dead. And apparently, someone at DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT had called the headquarters to complain or they would not have heard from the captain just then.

Stepping out of the office, the second officer said. “sir, what is this about calling in a false report? Eisen company has no claim to this land. Why are you harassing the staff here? And why the HELL are you discharging a firearm!  Where did someone like you even get one? You clearly never served!”

“hu? What are you talking about? Of course, this is Eisen property!”

“No sir, your company clearly transferred ownership to DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT, and their representative here is now being harassed by you. now please stop wasting our time,” said the first officer.

“officers, I also have work to complete, if you would, I would ask you to see Mr. Jay Eisen off my land, please. And you might want to do something about the firearm before he hurts himself, or someone else,” said Andrew. He was done with Jay, and already had a very sour impression of him.

“Right away! Have a good day sir!” with that the officers approached jay who was still looking confused and flustered.

“No! Just… No! This is our company land! You cannot toss me off our own land! I will have each of your jobs! Do you have any idea how important I am in this town?!” spluttered jay Eisen.

Frankly, while both officers had seen signs for Eisen construction around town, neither had really heard much of the family so no, they could not possibly know how unimportant this self-righteous jay was and at this point didn’t care. DREADNOUGHT INVESTMENT was a force to scare the life out of them, not some third-rate family.

As they began to lead jay back to his car he tried to turn and shout one last time at Andrew.

“you lazy bastard, I will not let you get away with this! You will not get to stay here!”

In the process of this, jay accidentally elbowed the first officer in the face.

“ok, that is it! Assaulting an officer after trespassing and discharging a firearm in an unsafe and threatening manner? Really? Let's go!”

The officers quickly wiped Jay around and cuffed him, pushing him into their car.

“you, you can't arrest me! I am Jay Eisen! This is our land! Do you know who I...” as the door slammed cutting off the end of his sentence.

The officers turned to Andrew who had a huge grin on his face.

“We will take care of this and have a tow truck remove the car shortly,” said the second officer.

“Thank you, sir, you both have a fine rest of your days.” Replied Andrew before returning to work on his training grounds.
