I walked into the HQ and over to my boss, I sat down beside him and asked him. "What do you need boss?" "I'll tell you now I'm just waiting on Jimmy to come." He said to me. We waited for another 10 minutes then the boss said. "Were going to have to start without him." He stood up, cleared his throat and just as his mouth opened Jimmy walked through the door. Everyone looked, then my boss said. "Nice of you to join us Jimmy, sit down." He cleared his throat again but this time he got the words out without being interrupted.

"Gentlemen, I apologise for calling you in so late and on short notice. As you know 3 of members were killed yesterday and until 3 hours ago we didn't know who killed them. I got a phone call from a barman just over beside Joe's HQ, until now there has been little friction between our family and Joe's. Anyway the barman said that he pays them protection money and in return a couple of bodyguards watch over his place at night. He said that his business isn't doing so well so he was wondering would we go over and burn it down so he could get insurance. I said to him OK but what's in it for us, he told me that two of Joe's men were in having a drink 2 nights ago and he over heard them talking about killing 3 of our members. So I said yes I will send some people over there to burn down you bar." Pausing to take a breath, he then continued. "Gentlemen I want one of you to go over there and burn down his HQ with this." He opened a suitcase with a bomb in it. Everyone in the room looked as he lifted the bomb out of the suitcase. "This gentlemen is a homemade bomb that Frank happily made for us, thank you Frank." Frank who was sitting beside me smiled and tipped his hat to the boss. The boss then continued "How it works, simple you turn this little timer around, it will count back and when it hits zero, Boom. Simple. I would like one of you to go over to that bar and blow it up?" He then lifted his hat which was sitting on the table beside him. "In this hat is everyone's name currently in the room. I will select the name myself and those name will do the job which I want. Why I pick them out of hat, well you could all do any job I want you to do weather you want to do it though is another thing." He put his hand into the hat and give it a shuffle. He them pulled out a small piece if paper and opened it. "The first name is the get-away-driver and that is Tom." Putting his hand back into the hat and pulling out 2 more name, he opened the pieces of paper. "The people that will plant the bomb are Rebel and Michael."

"The gentlemen that I have selected please remain behind the others are OK to go." He said. I waited behind as the other left. Then the boss started to talk again. "I told the barman that I would plant the bomb tomorrow night but I think tomorrow night they will ambush us so I think we will do it now." We all looked at him in shock. "Now!" I said as I raised my eye brows. "Yes now, don't worry there are no bodyguards in the bar and I even have a key for the bar so you want have break in. The boss said with a happy face. He got up and then said. "The car is in the garage Tom." We got up and walked out to the garage and got into the car. he handed me the key of the bar and a suitcase with the bomb inside. "OK you know what to do." Then looking at me he said. "Look after Michael Rebel he's your new associate." I looked at Michael and shaked his hand then turned to shake the bosses hand. "Thanks allot I'll look after him." I said. Tom speeded of from the HQ toward the bar. I looked out the window and saw the bar in sight.....
