Yeah I know but tell me, do you want to die slow and painfully or quick and easy. You got 5 seconds to tell where Cut is or I'm a have you looking like Tamar meets Tiny and that's one hell of a botch job. Quisy stated as he put a gun to Cut’s throat.

Dead. He said.

What? What do you mean dead, what did you do to him? Quisy asked loudly.

Well, he was captured, tortured, then killed all in the name of you. Even during his last moments he wouldn't give you up. If I remember correctly, he said he’d rather die with your love then live a traitor. He said.

How long? Quisy asked.

Oh how long have I've been him? Well, 6 months but he's been dead for about a month now. We figured we had enough for me to continue my disguise without him. The fact that you're not responding to me being in disguise tells me you know about the company and who we are. That's good because I don't like playing 21 questions. He said.

Get up, slowly and be wise about your movement. Quisy instructed.

You sure about that, after all I'm more than capable of disarming you of that gun. He said.

You could be so stupid to try, don't underestimate my skills. Ignorance has never been a friend to anyone, now move. Quisy commanded.

Cut impostor did as instructed without a fight.

Move, walk towards the door quietly and go out into the hall towards the living room. Quisy further instructed.

You sure about that, wouldn't want your friends to get hurt now would we? He asked.

Your life should be all that you're concerned about. Now keeping going. Quisy said as he followed him out the door and down the hall.

As they made their way to the living room Cut’s impostor decided to make his move by attacking Jamal. He hurriedly grabbed a knife in an attempt to hawk it at Jamal’s head. However, before he could release the knife Quisy quickly chopped him in his nerve right below his jawline (auricularis magnus), rendering him unconscious. Due to his unconscious state, Cut’s impostor lifeless body dropped causing him to fall to the floor along with his knife as well. Jamal and Ny both locked their attention to Quisy and what appears to be a knocked out Cut.

Bro, what the fuck is up? Jamal asked.

Quisy what's going on? Ny asked seriously concerned and confused.

We need to go now, I'll explain everything as we leave but we must leave. Mal I need you to help me carry him to the car then I'm going to drop you and NY off. Quisy said.

Ok man but I need to know what's up. Why the fuck did Cut just try to throw a knife at me and how the fuck you know how to knock a person out like that. Mal asked.

Babe, let’s get him in the car first then talk. Ny advised.

Bet. Mal replied.

Once they carried him into the car Quisy began to fill Mal in on what was up with Cut as he began to drive.

He's on drugs bro and I don't know if he's safe even with himself, which is why I'm going to take him to the hospital. Quisy stated.

Drugs? Na not Cut. You sure that's what it is? Mal asked.

That's the only logically explanation, I mean what else would cause him to threaten your life and try to rape me. Quisy responded.

Hold up that fuck nigga tried to do what? Mal angrily for clarification.

You heard me bro but again I think he's on some kind of drug(s) that has his mind fucked up. Look Mal I'm dropping you off at your hideout spot Ny, you too. Quisy said.

Okay love, I'm sorry Cut tried to do what he did. I know you must be hurt, I know how much you all cared about one another. Ny said.

Thank you and I am hurt, beyond belief actually. Quisy replied.

We're for you. I just can't believe Cut would do that. Ny said.

Neither did I, but that wasn’t Cut, at least not the Cut I remember. It’s almost as if it’s him but at the same time its not him, like the real him is dead or something. Quisy said giving Ny the real scoop.

I know what you mean love and I hope the real him is somewhere still kicking and fighting to come out. Ny replied.

I don't think so but I do want to believe that but I can't afford to give to hopeless dreams. Quisy said.

Man keep your head up, Cut’s a fighter hell pull through. Mal said.
Thank you Mal. Well we’re here, I'll talk to you after I take him to the hospital. Quisy said.

One love bro, be safe and call me. Mal said.

Will do and you too. Quisy said as he began to pull off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yo papi slow down, Cut did what? Mir asked.

He tried to kill Mal but that's not the real issue. The Cut we been hanging with isn't Cut at all, he’s an impostor just like bootleg Momma Joe. Look I'm bringing him to you guys he's been tied up, blindfolded, and his ears have been plugged. I'll explain the rest once I get there. Quisy said.

Ok I'll let the others know. You good though, he didn't try nothing with you did he? Mir asked.

No, I'm fine thanks. Quisy replied.

Good because the nigga would've met his last day fucking with mine. Aye papi, you should know your pops is here too. Mir said.

Really? Quisy asked nervously.

Yeah and he really wants to see you. Mir stated.

Ok but don't tell him I'm coming, whatever he might want to say I don't want to it be rehearsed. Quisy replied.

Bet, just get here fast. Mir said as he hung up.

On his way to the safe house, Quisy kept wondering how would his father receive him. Would he be happy, angry, sad, or ignore him. Feelings that he that he'd dealt with years ago came flooding back into his mind as the day he first experienced them. Feeling hurt yet happy was the eagerness that turned his 45 minute drive into 25 minutes. Once he arrived to the safe house he exited the car and pulled his Cut's impostor out.

Knock! Knock!

Who's at the door? Roberto asked.

You'll see Unc. Mir said as he opened the door.

Sup big head. Quisy said to Mir.

Come in papi. Mir said as he grabbed Cut’s other arm.

Boys what's going on, why do you have Cut held hostage? Mir’s pop asked.

This isn't Cut, he's another impostor just like Momma Joe was. He told me Cut was held captured 6 months ago and was killed about a month ago. Quisy said angrily.

Put his ass in the back room we’ll deal with him in a bit, Black Bird is supposed to be coming soon. Mir’s father stated.

Aye Quisy, may I have a word with you? Roberto asked.

I guess so dad. Quisy replied.

I'm glad you're okay papi, you had me worried. What did you tell Mal though? Mir asked.

I told him Cut is on drugs and they're messing with his mind and that he's needs to go to the hospital for help. Quisy said.

Iight I'm take him to the back and watch him, you and your pops go talk. Mir said.

Bet. Quisy said as he started to walk away but was stopped by Mir.

What? Quisy asked smiling.

Nothing, just waiting on my kiss, give me the luscious papi. Mir said smiling back.

You didn't need to ask. Quisy said as he kissed Mir.

I know. Mir said smirking and walking away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the two departed Quisy met up his father for the reunion he dreamt of but never imagined would happen.

Dad? Quisy called out.

I'm right here son. Roberto replied.

You wanted to talk. Quisy said.

Yes and before you kick my ass three ways from Sunday let me explained. I left to protect you and your mother, now I know there's never an excuse for a parent to leave their child especially without a goodbye but it was the only way knew how to protect you all without getting you wrapped up in my drama. What happened to your mother was them getting desperate hoping I’d come out and show myself and believe me I did. Everyone who I knew of at that time that was involved are now dead. Finding out about your mother, my wife nearly killed me. I fear none but if we're being honest, I was scared out my mind at the thought that they would come after you too. Sit down I want you to look me in my eyes when I say this. Roberto stated.

Okay. Quisy said as he sat in front of his dad.

Boy you are my world and like your mother I would lay my life down for you without second thought. I got so scared at the thought of losing you too that I almost fucked up this whole mission. I need you to understand that I couldn't come back even after your mother's death because of this mission. It's not that it’s more important than you but it places you in harms way as long as it's active and that I cannot have. Seeing you here today and Mir, I now know you've always been involved due to the teachings of your mother. See, I would've hid you away but she wanted you to be prepared, so I respect that and love her even more for it. She's always been good at making the hard choices when it concerns you, whereas, I couldn't. I guess in the end I still see you as my pride and joy, my little man. After all this is over, I ask that I can be the man you used to look up to with your forgiveness. I miss you dearly son and I love you. Roberto emotionally said.

Dad? Quisy called out.

Yeah. Roberto replied.

I never stopped loving you, I guess not knowing why you left put me in a confused place and with that confusion I got lost in anger towards you. I'm sorry we both had to lose mom but I know she's watching over us smiling at her two boys. I know about Ramón too and what he did. Quisy said.

I'm glad you brought that up because of it comes down to it, I'm asking you to save him and not me. Roberto replied.

What, are you crazy. No! I won't, I can't. I understand what happened to him but do not ask of me to kill you if you can't finish him. I can't lose you too. Besides, Black Bird said he plans to kill us all anyway regardless of us being family. Quisy said getting emotional.

Son I understand that but I'm his father as well and if anyone is to blame here, it’s me. I failed him all those years ago when I betrayed your momma. Roberto replied.

What are you talking about? Quisy asked.

When he was born I listened to the doctors over your mother when they told us he had died shortly after birth. You mother knew better but I was so lost in grief believing it to be true I told them to cremated him even after your mother argued that the dead baby they brought back to us wasn’t ours. That's how he was kidnapped. I blame myself, which is why I need to do everything I can to get through to him so he knows how sorry I am. Roberto stated.

I didn't know that. Hell, before Black Bird’s impostor told us we’re brothers I didn't even know you all had a child before me. I'll do what I can but I will not promise anything because I lose you I will fight till my last breathe. Quisy stated.

I understand son. I'm sorry about Cut as well, I know he was a good friend of yours and a good kid. I know avenge his death and your mother's, Mark my words on that. Let's go back in, Black Bird should be here soon. Roberto said.

Okay. Quisy said.

Cut the electricity. This unknown person said.

Are you still going to remain silent or shall we keep playing this game? This person said.

Fuck you, you faggot. Cut said.

If that's the way you want to play, then fine but know this I will have my answers soon. This person replied.

On your way out make sure you turn that bitch up more, that last one tickled. Cut said laughing.

Turn it up! He’ll break soon. The guy yelled angrily.

Yea son I'm from Jamaica, our loyalty is everything, your better off killing me if you think I'm a start snitching. Cut said.

All in do time, I promise. The unknown person said.

Bet. Cut replied.

AAH!!! The grunts coming from Cut as he undergo electric shock.

I hope she hurries, I don't know how long he’ll last before his heart gives out, please hurry Black Bird. The doctor thought to himself.
