Rig keeps going to his classes. he has excellent grades like always. sometimes he has dreams about his time on jail. sometimes he wakes up sweating. he knows that if he keeps taking lives he will go back to jail.
Mickey and Robin keep being an annoyance. Joan keeps flirting with Rig, who ignores her for most of the time. the classes are fine. oh and the fanboy keeps following him. he is asking him to accept him as his apprentice. everything seems to be okay.
in the meantime Detective Brandon Williams keeps investigating cases related to the Fierro mafia. he knows that he is close to finding something, that can help him to get that Mafia organization to its end.
he is like a hound dog about to find the clue that he needs to take them down. he is a man of the law who never gives up in a road of crime and corruption. he is the light of hope to the righteous path. he is the mallet of justice.
.....
in the meantime.
Samuel Robbins is with Tiziano Fierro. they at times talk about stuff, like a delivery which went sideways. or the production of their product. and how well they are selling on the week.
"sir it wasn't my fault. some cops show out of nowhere and we couldn't do shit, those cops weren't from around here."
Tiziano takes a cigarette. he tries to smoke. he is walking on circles thinking about the reason the delivery went wrong. he isn't too severe with his people. but he makes an example of those who don't follow the rules. or believed themselves to be smarter.
"your brother was a loyal and brave man. that is why I took you in. look kid, in this type of business a failure means death. so you better be careful with the choices you take in life. if you want you can leave now. but if you stay, remember that even a tiny mistake can cost you more than your life."
"I know sir. I will do better. I won't failed you ever again."
"that is what I hope. because you are still young and new. I will let this one go. now go and finish dealing with the next cargo."
Tiziano tells him that he is free to go. Samuel goes back to his home. in the way while he is driving. Samuel puts some music on. he them saw Rig walking on the streets. Samuel felt rage. he felt the need to take an action.
"have fun fucker, but soon your head would be in my wall. don't forget that fucking bastard. don't forget me, I am coming to get you."
Samuel keeps driving for a long while. he drives until he arrives at a valley. he finally stops and gets out of the car. he looks up at the moon which is bright and lightning the whole valley with its bright beauty.
.....
in the meantime.
Rig is back on his home. he is thinking about all the shit that has happen lately in his life. Rig looks at Jordan. they talk about the first person they would kill together.
Jordan choose a man with a record of molestation to minors. Rig agrees with him. they start to plan that murder until it becomes too late. Rig makes sure that Jordan promises to not let anyone know about their extracurricular activities. Jordan goes to sleep.
Rig is left alone. he thinks about his actions. there is time for him to stop. he can stop right now and look back at his past. he knows this path doesn't go to anywhere safe. if he keep walking on this trail of danger, he will surely have a tragic ending.
Rig is too smart to follow a stupid action. jet he is too cold to think about the consequences of his actions. he is rational, but not enough to care about his own life. that is the kind of person Rigoberto is.
.....
the next day.
Rig goes back to school. he questions his motives for planing the murder of someone. even if that someone else is a criminal himself. in the way to his school. Rig saw a weak man being beaten up by a stronger man. then he realized why he is doing it.
it is because the stronger keeps abusing of the weak. so he has to punish them for their life style free of remorse. for their actions.
once inside of school. Rig does his school work. he ignores everything that isn't related to the subject he is taking. even if Rig ignores the world. Mickey and Robin don't care, nor give a fuck if he isn't fine. so they keep saying the usual shit of always.
when class is over. Rig is leaving, but he is stopped by Mickey. before Mickey could say anything to him. Rig punches him in the face so hard that Mickey falls on the ground. Mickey looks at him with teary eyes and a bleeding nose.
Robin was about to say something. but he saw the murderous eyes of Rig. he then steps aside. he helps his friend to stand up. they leave.
Rig keeps walking tired of this world. more than anything tired of this society full of shit. Rig keeps walking. before he can notice. Rig is surrounded by the whole football team. they are all angry for what happened before.
Rig knows that this is not the time for him to let his anger take over. so he raises his hands up in the air. he closes his eyes waiting for it. they beat him up among all of them until they get tired. they leave him there. in the floor bleeding in a lot of pain.
instead of feel something like emotional pain. what Rig feels is joy. to think that sooner, or latter he will take his revenge on those motherfuckers, whom dare to mess with him. he even laughs feeling rage.
Joan was walking on that hallway. she looks at Rig. she helps him to stand up. she actually feels something for him. she kisses him. Rig kisses her back. they enter in an empty classroom.
Rig keeps kissing. he kisses her neck. she helps him to take his t-shirt off. they keep kissing with so much passion. she takes her skirt off.
"are you sure about this?" he whispers.
"yes, I want to feel you inside of me."
maybe they were too horny to think about something else. or it was just the situation on which they found themselves. what can be said is that they had sex on that classroom. Rig forgot about the pain from the beating.
for more cold or rational that Rig can be. there is something that must be clear. at his twenty years of age. he was still a virgin before today. Rig didn't minded that Joan was the one to take his virginity. he felt like on a way it was his revenge against Mickey.
.....
in the meantime.
detective Brandon Williams is smoking in a diner. his eyes are on Sidney, the waitress who is serving him. he knows about her connection with Jack.
he wants to interrogate her. he is sure that she knows about Jack's illegal activities before his death. Williams is sure that she knows something about the Fierro Mafia. but the problem is how would he asked her without being suspicious.
Sidney serves him more coffee. he smiles. this is the opportunity of the Detective to asked her about her involvement with the deceased. and her knowledge about his criminal activities.
"wait, young lady. I need to asked a few questions about your former boyfriend Mr. Robbins."
Sidney seems to be confuse and angry. she curses him. she can't believe that people keep coming trying to dishonor the memory of a dead person. he was no angel, but at least he deserves some peace after his brutal death. she is about to leave.
"I am a detective. at the moment I am investigating the Fierro family. I need your help to bring down the mafia that putrefies this precious town. before it becomes rotten to the core. your knowledge is precious to fight the filth on the streets."
Sidney seems to be surprised to see an actual policeman whom wants to do something for this town. someone whom wants to stop the mafia that stains its streets with blood. she accepts. but she asks him to talk in a private place where no one can hear their conversation. he understands.
Detective Williams awaits for her outside of the diner. he stays hidden from the eyes of others until the diner is closed.
.....
in the meantime.
Samuel is selling some drugs on the streets with two of his friends. Johnny and Louis, whom are asking when is he going to take his revenge on the guy who kill his brother.
"that bastard. I will let him smile for a bit longer. soon I will fucking murder his whole family and you two bitches better help me on that."
"yeah man whatever."
"yeah let's do it for your brother, that fucker better learn the lesson."
Samuel chuckles. he was corrupted by his hatred towards Rigoberto. and the life that he chose to take is a horrible one. he is the living image of the past days of his brother. he is worse than an animal.
"he took my brother away from me. not cool man, not cool. I swear I would murder his whole family. if that is what it takes to force him to pay for his mistakes."
Samuel cries and Louis tries to comfort him.
.....
in the meanwhile.
Rig is in his home. he is on the bed being help by Jordan. he is looking at all the bruises in Rig's body. Jose Miguel enters in the room. he is heart broken to see his son all beaten up. he feels impotence for not being able to help his son.
he suffers in silence with his wife Emma. she can't hold the pain to see two of her sons suffering in need of her help.
Rig looks at Jack. he is in front of him laughing. he is telling him that this is product of his huge pride. Rig tries to ignored him. he smiles at Jack.
once his parents leave. Rig asks Jordan if he wants to postpone the next kill on their list. Jordan tells him that he can do it by himself. Rig asks him if it is possible to see someone who is already dead.
"guilt can make a man see dead people, as much as guilt can force a strong man to fall on his knees."
Jordan asks if he has to take the kill by himself. Rig asks him for some time to think about it. Jordan then leaves.
Rig is confuse to realized that he feels guilt for his first kill. he hears the voice of Jack telling him 'I am a product of your guilt.' Rig looks at Jack scared.
"how is it possible, for me to feel guilt for someone like you. someone who destroyed the peace in my home."
some tears fall from Rig's eyes while he looks at Jack smiling at him. Rig sighs loudly. he rethinks about his next actions. there are signs everywhere for him to stop. jet Rig refuses to see any red flag.
.....
in the meanwhile.
Detective Brandon Williams is in Sidney's department. he asks her about her boyfriend's work for Tiziano.
"he told me everything that he did for Tiziano, the head of the Fierro Mafia. he always felt so much guilt for his acts. he used to tell me everything with tears on his eyes. he used to cry like a kid in my arms while confessing all the things he was force to do, he wanted out of that type of life. he had plans for us."
"his acts had no excuse. he murder people and he sold drugs to kids. everything in this life has a price to be payed. he did wrong. but you are in time to do the right thing. if you tell me everything that you know now and give me evidence. you can save many lives."
"there are some documents that he asked me to hide for him. those documents seem to be important to him. I promised that I would tell you everything that I know."
the Detective keeps asking questions. she answers every question with honesty. after a while the Detective leaves the place with some documents in his hands. the Detective starts to think about all the corruption in this town.
"this town is the definition of a black hole. this place sucks the souls of everyone that enters in it with no return to the light. but I would change that. I would make sure to destroy all the evil. I will force this town into submission. the people in here would walk the righteous path."
he keeps walking. some small gangsters are looking at him. the Detective realized that his presence has been notice. he knows that soon those rats would come for him, but when that happens he is going to be ready.
.....
in the meantime.
Jordan is in the woods burying a corpse. it is so dark. he can barely see anything at all. he gets a call from Rig. Jordan answers.
"yes, I did it.... I am pretty sure he is dead, if he bleed like a pig.... no, I am right now on it.... yes, I would do it.... do you really doubt of my talents?.... okay he is dead. and yes, I would clean every single drop of blood. I didn't forget to make sure to erase every single fingerprint, or hair. happy now."
Jordan ends the call. he finish burying the body. he goes to his car. he drives on the darkness of the midnight.
