The Magnificent Cat, Nadia Ramadan [free romance novels TXT] 📗

closely "you know I love you"

"I love you too" Wade said with a smile "now I think we should be going"

"Alright" Lisa said as she heads first to the door

"Wait!" Wade shouted "Take this!" 

Wade walked closer to her and handed her a big Shot Gun.

"Oh My God, Wade?" Lisa said surprisingly "I don’t know how to use those; I don’t think I need it"

"Of course you do!" Wade said seriously "you are entering a war zone, Lisa! You have to carry that with you, it's my job to protect you"

"Or maybe I protect you" Lisa said as she smiled "where do I…"

"Just pull the trigger" Wade interrupted "it reloads automatically" 

"Alright" Lisa said "but there is no guarantee that I might use it"

"It doesn’t matter" Wade said nicely "I just want you to have it, it will make me feel better, and that’s all"

Lisa looked at him smilingly as she heads to the door.

 

Everyone gathered around the car ready to head to Sly City

"Everyone ready..?" Wade shouted

"Yes" the crowd replied 

"Let's go get it!" Joe Shouted 

"Where is James?" Wade asked as he check his gun

"I don’t know" one gunman replied 

"Where is Nick?" Joe asked 

"Let's just go" Wade interrupted "for does who don’t want to come, its fine"

 

 

James finally started to feel himself; he could hear sounds echoing from the room, he couldn’t hear any words the familiar voice was saying.

James opened his eyes slightly and could see a room.

"Stay down, stay down" Picklock said with blood all over his hand "No need to hurry or anything"

"Mr. Picklock?" James said as he forced the words out "where am I? … What is go-?"

"You are in my Cottage" Picklock replied "No need to talk now, I will take care of you"

James forced himself to sit up and somehow could see his stomach sewed with thread and needle.

"Mr. Picklock, what are you doing?" James asked 

"Be quite, James" Picklock replied "I am sewing you back, I would love to get you to a hospital but that’s sound impossible, since they will be asking questions"

"I have to go" James said as he forced himself up

"Sit back down!" Picklock shouted "where do you think you are going?"

"I have to fight" James shouted as he feels pain running down his spine "aaah"

"What are you thinking, James?" Picklock started "I think you lost your mind the same minute you followed Patricia! Are you aware what could happen to the Magnificent Cat?"

"Of course I am aware" James said as he lies back down 

"There are people out there…your people!" Picklock shouted "fighting for the Magnificent Cat! Fighting to get it back! To get their jobs back…how is it going to be if you die on them! If you die, James this is all over, I mean all over!"

"What if the Magnificent Cat gets destroyed?" James asked

"What?" Picklock said as he looked at James seriously 

"If the Magnificent get destroyed…I die" James repeated "there is no guarantee in that, right?"

"Why would anyone want to destroy the Magnificent Cat?" Picklock asked 

"I don’t know" James replied "I just have to go"

"No you don’t" Picklock said sharply "firstly, you are a wreck and secondly, no one is going to destroy the Magnificent Cat and that’s final!"

"Picklock…pleases…" James said lowly "this is important"

"I am going to get some bandages, I recommend you stay put" Picklock said as he walked to the door "on a second guess, I don’t trust you"

Picklock walked closer to James and handcuffed him on the couch 

"Is that really necessary?" James said tiredly as he rolled his eye

"I will be back" Picklock said as he walked out of his cottage.

 

The road was long and bumpy from Bevin to Slycity and the armies are willing to get there before the night fall.

"Where are we going?" Lisa asked Wade scarily

"Slycity" Wade replied "that’s where Ruddick and Alden have their own building"

"What building?" Lisa continued to ask

"Building similar to ours" Wade replied "they are planning to do the same business"

"This is awful" Lisa said lowly

 

They finally reached Slycity and could see the gigantic gate of Ruddick and Alden's building, closed as tightly with not even an air to pass through. Right in front of the building they could see Steve's army standing and looking at each corner of the God forsaken building.

Wade jumped out of the car and ran closer to them.

"What's going on?" Wade asked

"It's pointless" Steve replied "We cannot enter!"

"Are you sure you checked everywhere?" Wade questioned as he looked around

"We all did" Steve answered "they must have secured this place well

Lisa jumped out of the car and followed Wade

"What is going on?" she asked "is this the place?"

"Yes" Wade replied "We have to get in"

"Waw" Lisa said as she looked around "sound impossible"

"I can ask my army to start shooting the gate" Steve interrupted "maybe that will help"

"No, no" Wade replied sharply "We don’t want them to know we are here, who knows how many armies they got in there…and traps too"

"That’s right" Joe said as he walked closer to them "the way I saw them earlier, I can tell that they have planned everything"

Wade held his hand on his head and sigh "there has to be a way"

"Well figure one out…I don’t have all day" Steve said angrily

"Of course you do" Wade interrupted "this is your only job"

"Maybe he's right" Joe said as he looked at Wade "maybe its pointless being here…at least today"

"No one dare give up!" Wade shouted "they faced us and killed our boss and we can't even get through the gates!"

"Well they had Ray to help them" Joe interrupted 

"We will fight them today!" Wade said angrily "no backing off now!"

"Of course" Steve said sarcastically "we just have to find a way in"

 

Picklock bought all the necessary medical apparatus needed to heal James. He walked into his cottage and only to his surprise found the couch empty and the handcuffs in which James was attached to cut off unbelievably, it was as if it was cut off by a hot sharp knife.

"How in the world…" Picklock said surprisingly as he looked at the broken handcuff “James! Where are you…damn it!"

Picklock ran out of his cottage and entered into his old car. He drove off as fast as he could to the building.

 

Picklock finally reached the building and ran in. the building was empty and it was clear that everyone left.

"James!" Picklock shouted "James!"

He looked all around the entire place and couldn’t see any one; he finally looked at the back of the building and saw Nick sitting solely

"Nick!" Picklock called out

Nick turned and saw Picklock approaching 

"Mr. Picklock?" Nick said surprisingly "what are you doing here?"

"I am looking for James" Picklock asked "have you seen him around?"

"No" Nick replied "he might have went with them"

"Them?" Picklock asked "the war?"

"Yes" Nick replied "I thought you are aware of it"

Picklock was heading to search around the building but he then turned to Nick and asked "why aren’t you with them? Why didn't you join them?"

"You mean the pointless war?" Nick said as he walked away

"What?" Picklock asked as he followed Nick "they are going to get the Magnificent Cat back…you call that pointless?"

"That… you are wrong" Nick said angrily "that’s not exactly what some people are trying to do today"

"What do you mean?" Picklock continued to ask "who are you talking about?"

"I am talking about Wade and the girl" Nick shouted

"What about them?" 

"They are planning to destroy the Magnificent Cat!" Nick continued "without anyone else's opinion and awareness; they just thought it’s the right thing to do, ignoring the whole world around them"

"This is horrible!" Picklock said scarily "they can't do that!"

"Same thing I said but they won't listen"

"James!" Picklock shouted "they can't do that to James!"

"James?" Nick asked curiously "what are you talking about?"

"They will kill him!" Picklock shouted "if they destroy the Magnificent Cat, James will die!"

"Just James…?" Nick said as he smiled "apparently all of us will die being jobless!"

"No, Nick" Picklock said seriously "I meant this literally!"

"Oh…he likes the Magnificent Cat way too much he might get a stroke…well that will make sense" Nick said annoyingly as he turned away. 

"Listen to me!" Picklock shouted "James will die because he is the Magnificent Cat!"

"I don’t get it" Nick said as he looked at Picklock weirdly "I am not following this"

"James is the Magnificent Cat" Picklock repeated "You don’t have to know the details or how it happens…all what I have to say is that he is the Magnificent Cat…do you know why the Magnificent is still working, it’s because James heart is still working and if either of them stops…either of them shall die as well"

"Holly Shit! Mr. Picklock… Are you ok? What are you saying?"

"I won't be ok until I find James" Picklock shouted "could you get in touch with Wade…call him on his cell phone!"

"He did not take his cell phone to war!" Nick answered sharply "there is no way to get in touch with any of them!"

 

"So, any idea…?" Steve said as he walked closely to Wade

"None so far" Wade replied as he sat on the ground next to the gigantic gate.

Everyone else sat down hopelessly as they looked at the gate once more.

"He is here!" Joe shouted as he pointed to the opposite street.

"Who is here?" Wade asked as he looked at the place Joe was pointing

James walked closer and closer to them with a huge Riffle in his right hand, an axe on his left and 3 pistols hanging on his jeans

Lisa turned and looked at him as he walked bravely towards them.

"Let's do this" James finally said as he looked at the entire troop

 

Chapter 28 - The Battle is on

Its 6:00 evening and the day was still bright day light, far away in Bevin the concert was still going on joyfully and everyone is having a good time. The music was still as loud and it can still be heard in everywhere near Bevin including Slycity.

 

James walked nearer to everyone and said "Waw" we have a lot of army do we?"

"This is Steve" Wade said as he introduced James to Steve "and those are his men, they are all under Armand's payroll"

"So they must be desperate to get the Magnificent Cat back" 

"Yes we are!" Steve replied sharply "but there is a little problem in accomplishing that…we cannot get in…!"

"Are you sure?" James said as he looked at the gigantic building "did you try looking behind the secretive camera over there"

"What secretive camera?" Wade asked as he looked at the door

Steve walked nearer to the camera and opened it, in the camera there was a small bottom. Steve pressed the bottom and the gigantic door started to open slowly.

Wade turned to James and said "have you been here before?"

"Duck down!" Steve shouted as everyone stayed out of sight.

Wade crawled to Lisa and said "stay with me"

Lisa replied to him by nodding her head scarily

James hid behind a wall and started to load his gun.

 

Ruddick looked through his spy window once more and could see the gigantic gate opening.

"They are here!" he said lowly into a small mic.

Alden heard it and gave his armies the signal

All the armies which were at the top of the building readied their guns

"Fire…!" Alden shouted loudly as they all started
