Greg's Dreaded Return Who Is In Charge Now?
''Are there any jobs around here? Who is the leading name out here, so that I can fall into line immediately,'' Shadow said to Barter as he signaled the bartender for a packet of cigarettes.Barter looked at Shadow, examining him closely. ''You don't look all that bad for someone who just returned from jail after a long time,'' Barter told Shadow honestly.Shadow eyed Barter fiercely.''What do you take me for?'' He asked Barter. Barter laughed lightly.''First of all, I ruled prison when I was there. I was the President. Then after I got released, my dear I stayed indoors for nearly a month to recuperate. You don't expect to see a player like me move dirty...'' Shadow explained.Barter nodded. Shadow had a point. ''Always valid,'' Barter said to Shadow and nudged him lightly as Shadow puffed on his cigarette proudly.''Yea. So, I asked you. Who is leading?'' Shadow asked Barter again.Barter shrugged. ''I don't know. I am out of the game,'' Barter said to Shadow in reply.Shadow
Greg's Dreaded Return Dare Devil
Shadow shook his head. ''It's not necessarily like that, you know. Our line of work has to do with loyalty only with the patron that you are working with at the moment, so? If he is dead, why don't you move on?'' Shadow asked. ''To the person that killed him?'' Barter asked Shadow, giving him a very intense look. Shadow shrugged.''I don't see what the big deal is honestly. This is a matter of business. Anyway, it's all good. I don't want you to stage me as a bad person as a result of this, so it's fine. Your decision is up to you. By the way, where do you work now? You are no longer the Barter of before. I am not seeing any females at your table. What's really going on?'' Shadow said and laughed heartily.Barter chuckled too, though at the surface because he didn't like what Shadow had just said to him. Before Shadow went into jail, he used to be one of the top beneficiaries of Mr. Ban's goodwill, so for him to nonchalantly ask Barter to go and work for the very man that was rumo
Greg's Dreaded Return ''Where Is The Money?
Shadow kept on glancing at Barter worriedly. ''Are you okay? You seem to be greatly moved by what I have said,'' Shadow said to Barter. Barter blinked furiously and returned his gaze to Shadow.Then he waved it aside.''It's nothing. I am just wondering how to lay hands on your debtor. I know I would be at least five million dollars richer if I provide the culprit to you,'' Barter said to Shadow. Shadow shook his head defiantly. ''Ten, Barter. You will be ten million dollars richer if you provide the culprit to me,'' Shadow told Barter. Barter swallowed hard. Ten million dollars. Laura Ban! She must provide that money or else, this time he would kill her. Barter nervously tapped on the surface of the desk he was leaning on.''Tell me, do you know this person? This Alina of a girl, do you know her?'' Shadow asked. Barter swallowed hard.He was about to deny his sister, and it didn't feel right, but he knew that he didn't really have a choice, so he replied. ''No. But the cit
Greg's Dreaded Return Don Black Wants To See You
Shadow didn't take Barter seriously anyway.How and where on earth was Barter going to find Alina? He was talking about a ruthless hacker here. She could hack into anything, so finding her would be the hardest since she could hack herself into becoming invisible while standing in front of you. But, if only Shadow knew. However, forgetting about the money seemed like the sensible thing to do. That sort of thing would only bother his mind and make him worry forever if he continued to think about it, so he decided to let it go. If Barter came with any viable information, then, fine. If not, he had to let it go. Moving forward, Shadow was interested in joining Greg Chase's gang. ''If only he would accept me this time,'' Shadow said while thinking of the possibility. Shadow could recall using several means to get at Greg when they were in jail, including bullying him. Greg didn't like the bullying aspect at all and reacted aggressively to Shadow when he tried it. It was when Shadow
Greg's Dreaded Return Who's The Boss?
Don Black had been looking for a way around how to get to Shadow, and he had almost forgotten about it. Besides, Greg Chase was skeptical, the entire time he was envisaging Shadow not agreeing to join their faction because Greg Chase ignored him during their time in jail. Greg hated to be in this position.He wanted to stay above the local gangstas in the city, and that was why he mercenaries with a lot of money, but with the issues that he faced, he needed local gangstas that knew the terrain to handle the business. At least he needed them to find out who this faceless idiot was that was playing crazy games with them like this. Greg Chase was getting frustrated if he were, to be honest. He could not help but wish that Scissors caught up with whoever that lady was that did the drop that day. "A lady?!" Greg Chase said as he relaxed into his chair, shocked by all standards that a darn woman was making him fidget like this. Meanwhile, Shadow met with Don Black, and Don Black could
Greg's Dreaded Return Suck Your Mother
Laura Ban could not concentrate on anything else anymore.Barter had somehow found out about the huge amount of money that was in Alina's position before she died, and now the fury in Barter's eyes was intense.He was like a dog wanting to attack someone, but only being held back by it's owner.Anywhere and time he saw Laura, he glared at her like a menaced man.Laura had all that money at her disposal?No wonder her confidence grew over a hundred percent.It was because of Laura's new found confidence that Mr. Ban started acting differently towards her.Barter started to understand everything clearly.If only he could tell Shadow that he knew where his money is, it would be easier to get it out of Laura, but with Barter's greed, he didn't want to tell Shadown anything.If he could get that money from Laura, that would mean that?He would be a billionaire.He didn't care if he was a couple of millions away from hitting the billion dollar mark, a billionaire is a billionaire, right?Th
Greg's Dreaded Return The Struggle For Importance
Shadow looked forward to meeting Greg Chase, the man he had admired while in jail.When Shadow struggled with Greg Chase in jail and discovered that there was something about Greg, he wished the day would come when they would meet under normal circumstances, like being allies.Finally, the day had come.Don Black took Shadow to Greg Chase's house.When Shadow saw Greg's house, he remembered the money that Alina "stole" and he felt a bit disgruntled.However, he was quick to shove the feeling aside, knowing how sensitive Greg Chase was, and the fact that he could sniff out the least weird scent of unconventional behavior.When Don Black informed Greg Chase that Shadow was going to pay him a visit, he was apprehensive.Knowing what had happened between Shadow and himself while they were locked up, he thought the visit would be awkward, and he couldn't wait to get over this first meeting."Mr, Chase, sir, you have guests!" Greg Chase's bodyguard informed him respectfully.Greg was alread
Greg's Dreaded Return Who Have You Become?
"Honey, Barter scares me a lot," Laura Ban dared to tell Mr. Ban this one day. The fact that he had found out about Alina's money made her feel nothing but dread. Heavy dread. Now, he was more desperate than ever.Mr. Ban, who was sleeping with his back turned Laura, turned and faced her. "What are you talking about?" He asked with tiredness in his voice. "I mean Barter, he scares me. Don't you see the way he looks at me?" Laura Ban asked her husband. Mr. Ban smiled as he stared at his non-so- innocent anymore wife, Laura Ban. "You killed his sister, Laura. What do you expect?" Mr. Ban asked. Laura snacked her lips nervously."I've never denied doing anything like that, but the thing is that it's passed, yet he glares at me as if he would kill me the next moment," Laura Ban said to Mr. Ban."He's just angry, he's not going to do anything that would hurt you in the long run, okay?" Mr. Ban assured Laura, patting her and drawing her close to him. Laura Ban snuggled into Mr. Ban

Greg Chase didn't know if he should laugh or cry. He stared at The Man until he was sure that The Man was serious about what he said, then he heaved a tired sigh. ''You cannot afford to do this to me. I mean...you sparingly ruined my life,'' Greg Chase complained, his eyes on The Man the entire time. ''You are the watcher, Mr. Chase. You shame me. The watcher ought to be more powerful than you are, but you are too full of yourself, so you cannot reach your full potential,'' The Man told Greg Chase. ''How powerful can I get?'' Greg Chase asked. ''Did you hear about the natural disaster that happened in the city Aklans weeks ago?'' The Man asked Greg Chase. Greg Chase nodded.''Yes, that was caused by a watcher like you. He was upset about something, and his intense anger caused a stir and an earthquake occurred. Though the government officials claim it to be solely a natural occurrence, it is a lie, and they know it...'' The Man told Greg Chase. Greg Chase was not sure he heard

Mind Fuck!
Greg Chase almost dropped dead when he heard everything. ''If you have anything to tell me, or there is an emergency, I bet you now know how to summon me. It took you two years to learn how to summon me, Greg Chase. Now, you know what pride can do to you. It can ruin you,'' The Man said as he gradually disappeared into space. Greg Chase stared in arrant shock.All this...it had to be a joke.''Boss...at least...you aware that you returned my colleagues back to our company, right?'' Scissors asked Greg Chase after The Man left. Greg Chase looked at Scissors casually and nodded. ''I have told you not to call me boss anymore,'' Greg Chase said.Scissors smiled. ''The boss is really back to himself. Boss, you have not told me that in the past two years, and I have only called you boss throughout,'' Scissors said, smiling. Greg Chase wished it could stop.Someone needed to come and tell him that all this was a dream.Ge desperately needed to hear that he had been pranked heavily. So

Nowhere
''Master!'' Greg Chase muttered. Then he blinked. The next time that Greg Chase opened his eyes, he was in his living room on earth.He was leisurely watching TV and Scissors walked by casually. Greg Chase looked at Scissors, expecting him to freak out and ask how and where he had been but Scissors acted like every other day. As if nothing happened. Or?Had he been in a trance?''Scissors, what day is it today?''Wednesday,'' Scissors said. ''Where have you been in the last twenty-four hours?'' Greg Chase asked, looking at Scissors, squinting in confusion. It was as if his brain had been formatted. Scissors turned to look at him funny.''Keeping tabs on me now, huh, boss!'' he said, taking orange juice from the fridge and heading back inside the house, to his room. Greg Chase's eyes sparkled in confusion. ''I'm not keeping tabs on you. Fuck you,'' he said under his breath.''I heard you!'' Scissors yelled from afar. Greg Chase nodded with satisfaction. The first thing that

Call Me Master!
''Boss?'' Scissors called, wondering why Greg Chase was looking at him like that. ''What is growing on your head?'' Greg Chase asked Scissors. Scissors frowned.Was it because he had indicated that something was funny about Greg Chase, that Greg Chase decided to switch up on him?''Boss, are you kidding?'' Scissors asked, flashing a weak smile.Greg Chase shook his head. ''There's a radio on your head,'' Greg Chase suddenly said.''Radio!'' Scissors muttered and raised his hand to touch his head but he did not feel anything, and to Greg's shock, Greg saw Scissors' hand pass through the radio. ''Ah, boss...you are playing the pranks on me. But there is an antenna on your head anyway,'' Scissors said to Greg Chase. Without wasting time, Greg Chase raised his hand to touch his head, and he was not surprised when he could not feel anything, yet he saw Scissors gasp in shock. ''Your hand passed through it,'' Scissors said. ''Same thing that happened to you. There's a radio on your h

Radio and Signal
''You...I must give it to you as the watcher with the biggest ego ever...'' The Man said to Greg Chase.Greg Chase frowned. ''Are there more watchers? I thought I was the only one,'' he said to The Man as he walked towards Scissors and started to pull him up again, but just like before, an unknown force repelled Greg Chase. The Man laughed his usual mocking laugh, one that made Greg Chase upset by all means. ''Can you please release my friend? What the hell?'' he asked The Man, anger flashing evidently in his eyes.''I am not holding your friend to anything, he will get up when he wants to,'' The Man replied.''And, about your question as to if there are other watchers, of course, there are billions of watchers around the world,'' The Man said to Greg Chase. ''I thought I was the only one. Are they also up to anything as big as mine? Do they try to take down their enemies or they are solely connected to the source of wherever this watcher thing comes from?'' Greg Chase asked. ''T

Reverence The Man
Greg Chase was beside himself, wondering why Laura had suddenly cut off from him.Yes, she might have been spotted in his house, but from the way he felt, he knew that word had not gotten to Mr. Ban about the fact that she was in his house, so why was she suddenly unavailable? Why was she no longer interested in their plan to overthrow Mr. Ban completely this time?He had his hopes on her, especially now that Don Black had looked in another direction, having found another ''young blood'' to show the ropes of the business and get acquainted with. No matter how many times Greg Chase called Laura Ban, it either did not go through, or she abruptly hung the call up on him.''Urgh, what the fuck is going on?'' Greg Chase asked himself. He felt as if everyone he knew and looked forward to helping him achieve one thing or the other, was turning their back on him. But, under what basis? What did he do, or what did they suddenly realize for them to have such a decision made overnight?''Boss

Hanging By A Thread
''What is it?'' Shadow asked, looking very interested in Barter's thoughts. Barter had been looking at him with so much intensity, he had to know what was on Barter's mind while he was looking at him. Barter looked at Shadow closely.If he told Barter what he knew, everything could take another turn for the worst, but he also wanted Laura Ban to face the repercussion of the trouble that she had doled out on others. Shadow stared at Barter, waiting for an answer. ''I was just wondering when you will ever settle down with one woman. You should be married by now, you know...'' Barter suddenly said. Shadow was surprised. ''Are you kidding me right now?'' he asked Barter.Barter shook his head. ''Nope! After you lost your ex-wife, I could understand you staying away from relationships and not wanting to commit to anyone anymore, but it's been nearly ten years since that happened. Don't you think you need someone by you to make you feel better? You know what I mean. Even gangstas nee

Weighing The Odds
Barter was getting frustrated, and desperate. After spending more than two decades with Mr. Ban, he was easily going to throw him, Barter to a corner just because of a loose whore he called his wife? He stared at the door of the room as if he wished that his eyes would bore a hole through. ''Preposterous,'' he muttered as he suddenly turned to leave. In the living room, when Barter stormed in angrily, he saw Shadow. Barter looked at Shadow as if he was seeing a ghost. ''Dude, where the hell have you been for nearly two weeks?'' Barter asked, shocked. Shadow rolled his eyes. ''Did you really expect me to hang around so that I will get discovered by Chase and the rest of them that I am on Ban's side?'' Shadow asked. Barter suddenly realized. There was no way Greg Chase and his cohorts would not have found out about Shadow playing both sides, the tension and pressure were too much, especially after the war. ''You are right, you would have been spotted,'' Barter said.

The Garment Of Wickedness
''We just had a few drinks and nothing more,'' Laura Ban said. By this time, they had arrived at the home of Mr. Ban.Mr. Ban hurried out of the car as if, if he stayed there for one more second, something will happen to him. ''Boss!'' Barter greeted him as soon as he sighted him. He had been waiting rather impatiently for Mr. Ban to return and give him a rundown of what happened at Laura Ban's house. Barter would have been the one to follow Mr. Ban to Laura Ban's family house, but his hideous face did not allow him. ''How did it go, boss?'' Barter asked. Mr. Ban glanced at Barter and rolled his eyes. Barter knew at once that Mr. Ban must have been ridiculed and insulted. The look on the man's face was so intensely upset. Barter spotted Laura Ban behind, hurrying up to meet Mr. Ban, and he obviously hissed, loudly enough so that Laura Ban would hear him. But of course, at the moment, Laura was bothered about something else, so she paid Barter no mind. She hurried towards Mr
