Ch.21
Caba was overjoyed with his new gift.He couldn't wait to shoot it tomorrow.He had it put up over his fire place and kept looking up at it,afraid it may dissapear.He had had a Margarita and his spirits were still rising."What the hell.I*'ll shoot it right now.It will look great out at night.He walked outside with only a minor stagger.He did have a couple Margaritas.He walked until he got to the most reclusive spot on the property.He was about to open up with the rifle,and then he heard another sound,like a light groaning of wood.
A door wasd opening,but where?It was so seclu-.A hatch began to slowly rise out of the ground,a cellar door.Caba was surprised and his instincts begged him to hide.He crawled to a small shrub and hid."-that he doesn't know?"It sounded like HB but Caba was unsure."Of course not.He thinks some old guy did it."Caba was sure that was The Boss."But what if he does know?He has a very bad temper.And I wish he could be kept alive."HB said with worry."No disrespect but its very plain and simple.Caba does not know that we killed Suzan.Is it plain enough?I mean no disrespect but I'm sure that he has no Earthly idea that we were responsible.So calm down son.Enjoy life."
Caba swallowed,his head began to swim.He was going numb.A rage filled his veins,his vision was blurring.Those dirty bastards!They had mislead him.They had told him that someone else had killed Suzan.He felt a recuring feeling,one of cold rage.A rage that was patient.He hid there until HB and Boss walked away,still discussing Suzan's death.He slowly got up and walked to the warehouse.All of the lights were off and Caba sneaked in.He walked into the back to find Hunter asleep with the T.V. on Caba slowly got beside Hunter and put the rifle to his head."Wake up."Caba whispered.Hunter said nothing."GET UP!"Hunter jumped out of his bed and stared at Caba in horror.What the *** are you doing?""Who killed Suzan?"Who?"Don't *** with me 'pal'.Who did it?"Hunter was afraid.He had no idea who Suzan was.Caba slowed down and thought.He was an outside member of the Family.He might not know about it."Hunter,you have been a friend to me.Now,I need a answer.Do you know who killed a very close friend of mine.Suzan."Hunter was starting to understand the situation."Caba,I did not know anything of this."Caba sighed and got up from Hunter's chair."I was hoping for an answer."
Hunter felt like a father to Caba ,being fairly old and his giving Caba help where it was needed."Caba,what do you want me to do?There ain't much I can do."Caba thought and figured out his only option."Grab the lupara,and follow me."Hunter obeyed and followed Caba.Caba slid into the mansion of The Boss.Hunter followed.Caba walked throughout the house and found The Boss.Asleep in his bed.Caba walked over and slowly got onto the bed."The lupara."Caba whispered.Hunter nodded and handed Caba the gun.Caba poked The Boss in the head with the muzzle until he was awake."Caba?What is going-""Don't worry,Caba has no earthly idea that we are responsible for Suzan's death."The Boss went pale."Like you said boss,'You come in kickin-"Caba fired both barrels of the lupara into The Boss' head"-and you come out dead."Hunter was astonished.The Boss was dead.He was stuck.He was quite commited now.
Caba looked over to Hunter."Call the police.Tell them,the Don is dead."Caba waited in the room until HB ran in."What...Dad?"HB looked at Caba with pure animal hatred."I trusted you.I helped you.We gave you shelter."Caba thought back to the happy days he had had with Suzan."But what else did you do?You took my love."He raised the rifle and fired.Beautiful bolts flew as they exited the barrel in flames.HB crumpled into a smoldering heap."Goodnight,my friends."He sat there until he heard the sirens.Caba turned to Hunter."My journey is finally over."
