Protect Ya Neck

*"Don't mess with my man, I'ma be the one ta bring it to ya!" _ Nivea- D.M.W.M.M*

Eyes of Joshua:

I held onto my arm trying to put pressure on it as I sat back seat of the all black Tahoe with a gun to my face."Whoeva' sent ya must not be the smartest muthafucka out the bunch."These niggas weren't smart at all.The didn't tie me up or anything.Wrong move!

"Ayo what the fuck he sayin' back there?"The one said driving..

"Talkin' shit, I shot you once didn't I ?"He said pulling back the trigger..

"You grazed me nigga there's a difference, ya aim is fucked up!"I said remaining calm.."Ayo look can we get this over wit I got a special date night planned and my lady gone be tight if I stand her up."He pistol whipped me with the gun and I laughed spitting out the blood.."You hit.. Like a BITCH!"I said spitting more blood in his face..

"I could kill you right now!"

I laughed.."But you won't, or you would've..Whoever you work for needs me alive..Too bad you can't go wit me."Before he could even speak I head butt him got his gun and aimed for his head..

"YO WHAT THE FUCK!TREY!"The driver said..

"NOW THAT'S HOW YOU BUST!"I said as all my adrenaline rushed in.I said fuck that arm.."Now like I said, I HAVE A FUCKIN' SPECIAL NIGHT PLANNED FOR MY LADY!SO YOU CAN TAKE ME TO WHO SENT YOU OR BE MAGGOT FOOD.."

He blew steam.."FUCK YOU!"I sighed shooting his left arm.."FUCK IS WRONG WITCHU I'M DRIVIN' AN SHIT..AHHH!"He screeched swerving over trying to maintain being in the right lane..

"Who sent you!?"I said.."Nigga!"I said cocking back about to shoot again..

"Okay! OKAY! It's this bitch named Tammy.."He said breathing hard pulling over and parking.."Said to take you to the bandos and we'd get 60 g's a piece.."

"Damn that's all I'm worth is 120 in total.."I said shaking my head.."What kind of nigga name is Tammy!?"

"Ain't no nigga..It's a bitch!And that's all you gettin' outta me, FUCK YOU!"Since I knew he was hurting that I killed his boy I sent him along with him so they could be together.I grabbed his phone.These dumb ass niggas didn't have passwords or nothing..Fuck you gone be a D boy moving this way.So many codes broken.Whoever sent them is either not familiar with my get down or leading me into a trap..Either way, I was putting an end to this tonight.

Eyes of Kai:

Me an Marina were in the car jamming..

"My MINNDSS TELLIN' NOOOO!BUT MY BODY, MY BODIES TELLIN' ME YEEUUUHS!MARINA I DON'T WANNA HURT NOBODY..But there is something that IIIII MUST CONFEEEEESSSSSS!!!"I said grinding.."Comon' KELLS!"I could here Marina scream my name..I snapped back turning the music down.."What's wrong love bug?"I said watching her through the rear view..

"Ms. Kai isn't that R. Kelly?"

I chuckled a bit shook.."Yes ma'am, what you know about him little bit?"

"Ms. Kai! He's canceled, that's what GG mama Fly said!"She said wiggling her little hand at me..

I held my head down.."But he ain't do nun to me."She gave me a look.."But listen.."I said turning it up a little.."He said HE DON'T SEE NOTHIN' WROOOONG OOOOOOH!"She put her hand by her side.."Fine!"I said cutting it off..

5 minutes later...

"THAN HE WADDLED AWAY, WADDLE WADDLE!THAN HE WADDLED AWAY,WADDLE WADDLE!TILL THE VERY NEXT DAY..BUM BUM BUM BUM!"I loved Marina but she was killing me with these duck songs"See Ms. Kai! Everybody loves ducks, they not cancelled..Sing wit me!THAN HE WADDLED AWAY!"

I laughed shaking my head.."Waddle Waddle.."I mumbled under my breath..

She was happy and I guess that's all that mattered, no matter of the cost at suspense of my agony..My phone rang and I didn't recognize the number..I picked up while Marina said AWE MAN! at the music cutting off..

"Hello."

"Take me off speaker!"I looked at my phone disconnecting the cars Bluetooth and connecting my headphones Bluetooth..

"I'm sorry, and WHO IS THIS EXACTLY!?"

"LOOK BITCH I DON'T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF GAMES YOU PLAYIN' WHILE YOU GOT MY DAUGHTER BUT YOU DONE FUCKED UP!You think you can take out Joshua without my say so!"

"And exactly what the Hell are you talking about and who the HECK is this!?"

"You know exactly who this is, So what's the plan you and Tay Tay come thru and take over..Give up the pussy and take them for everything they got!Bitch you snitched out my babies fatha'!"

I knew it was Melissa for sure by now even though she sounded a little weird it had to be her."What are you talking about!?"

"You got Josh knocked by the feds an shit!You dirty BITCH!I got sunin' hot waiting on you.."I watched Marina in the rear view.

"I don't know what the fuck you're talking about but I had nothing to do with whatever is going on.Look I have Marina let me get her squared away and we can meet up."

"Nah, I don't need to meet witchu about nun sis..You got cha head fa now!"She said hanging up in my face.

I had to pull over and think things through.."Ms. Kai what's wrong are you okay?"

I tried to hide my tears."Yes baby everything is gonna be just fine, Hey why don't we take a trip to GG mama Fly's.."I said looking through my contacts for her number.

"But what about daddy!?"It rang and rang but no answer..Shit!"Ms. Kai what about daddy?"

"Oh he's uh, he's gonna meet us there too okay love bug."

She nodded."Yes ma'am."She said softly. But I think she knew something was wrong, kids always know.

"Hey Marina I'm gonna always be here to take care of you no matter what, you know that right?"I said starting the car back up and heading for Charice..I glanced back at her.

"I know.. daddy isn't coming back is he?"

My heart tore apart.."Yes he's coming back, he's always coming back for you!I promise."

"Mommy use to promise me things."

I sighed."I know, but my promises mean something..You're dad will be right here with you in no time.."I was about to get to the bottom of this.I didn't know what was going on at all but I knew I was about to raise hell and high waters!

"And you too?"She said beginning to make the pouty face..But it was sincere and painful to see her this way.I made a commitment to her and Josh..And I was gonna do everything in my power to fix this.Didn't matter what happened that night.All I could think about was my world without Joshua in it.All I could think about was my world if Marina ever went away.All I could think about was my word I gave Josh to always be here for Marina.Friends we were but deep down inside I knew he was my man.And one thing they can't do is mess with my shit any more!

"Me too, I'm here! I'm not going anywhere anymore."I said as she dried her eyes.We road in silence.I had no clue where I would start.We pulled up down the block from Charice and the laws had the street sold up.They were all up and through Charice's house.

"Ms. Kai what happened to GG mama, why da police is here?"I just didn't know how to answer her.I just knew we had to get far away from here."GG MAMA!"Marina yelled as I looked up noticing them take her away in cuffs.WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AROUND HERE?Nothing made any sense.

"It's okay calm down Marina."

"Where are they taking GG.. Her didn't do nothing wrong!"She cried..

The phone rang and it was Taylor..I answered swiftly.."TAYLOR!"

"I know mama, I know.. You and Marina come to my place now.. They got Quan am Jonesy too."She said sounding like she had been crying like crazy.

"Taylor I'm scared what's going on? I don't know if Joshua is alive.. I just don't know what to make of all this!"

"Just get here in one piece and we'll figure out the rest lata'."

I let out I long sigh.."Okay I'm on my way!"I hung up getting the hell away from there and heading to Taylor.."Listen love bug, it's gonna be me and you for a while so I need you to trust me!Everything is gonna be just fine, okay!Do you trust me?"

There was silence and sniffles.."Yes I'm trust you Ms. Kai!"

"We're gonna go to Aunt Taylor's tonight okay."She nodded remaining quiet.There was no way I could go back to Josh's I knew the feds would be there waiting.And I had to keep Marina safe.

An hour later..Taylor helped me calm Marina down, get her fed, bathed and in bed..I watched her sleep.

"Here drink this to calm your nerves"She said coming behind me.

I took the mug taking a sip of the tea.My nerves were recked to the T!"Taylor what is going on!?"I said as she hugged me.My phone started going off and Taylor let me go as I ran to go pick it up.

"Hello"I said frantically answering the private call

"Would you like to accept a Correctional call from Joshua Longpacker?"

"YES, YES, YES!"I screamed putting it on speaker as Taylor stud with her left hand over her mouth and her right hand over her heart..

"If you would like to accept the charges from Joshua Longpacker please press 1 now. Surcharges may be applied."I pressed 1 so fast I didn't care how much the cost was.

"JOSHUA!"I yelled..

"Kai! Are you an Marina good?"A part of me was at ease knowing he was still alive..

"Yes we're with Taylor."I had so many questions but I knew time was limited and not to talk about anything on the line, especially this one.

"Good, Good!"

"Baby are you okay, I'm out here going crazy!"

"Yeah I'm cool, don't worry about me.Little bullet graze ain't stopping nuffin'!Listen up, shits hot but read in between.I need time to sort some shit outJust take good care of Marina and yourself.A guy named Richie Lawson is gonna come get you and Marina first thing in the morning..He a crazy ass white boy but he's cool.He's gonna take care of everything for you guys just trust him.Let me handle this, please don't get involved!I will keep you posted when I get a chance to make calls..I promise it won't be longer than a week."I sucked up my tears.

You have 2 minutes remaining.The automated system said in our ear."Look ma we ain't got that much time.Tell Taylor Quan said he loves her and don't worry."I looked up at her and she nodded balling snot.."Ight baby girl, give Marina all my love.I'm sorry I got us in this shit but I'm gonna get us out, that's my word!"

One more minute remaining."Josh I love you!"

"I love you more baby..Stay up, I'll call you when I can..Oh shit and one more thing stay away from.."The phone cut him off right there..I looked up at Taylor.

"Go pack you're coming with me and Marina."I said as she nodded going to do so.He said don't get involved, and I had to respect that..But after a week if he wasn't home.I'm involved and that's , THAT!

Flashback to earlier..

I called the last number and tracked it down to Harlem Square PJ's..I couldn't even get through the parkway before the feds came out of no where.

"Joshua Longpacker, you're under arrest for drug trafficking, the murder of Nathaniel Spencer, Tammy Spencer and Melissa Rockwell! Fraudulent record label, and money laundering without tax configuration! You have the right to a lawyer, in the criminals justice court of Law!You have the right to remain silent. Anything you do or say can and WILL be held against you in the court of law, do you Understand!?"

"Loud an clear."I said shaking my head.
