“Don’t worry; I’m already planning on kicking that impostor’s ass after I rescue Max.” Dan reached into his pockets & took out his brass knuckles. “Do you know where they are right now?”
“Knowing him, I honestly wouldn’t doubt it. We need to get Max away from that douchebag as soon as possible.”
“I
swear to God if he tries anything I’m going to set him on fire.” Dan
started to head towards his apartment, clenching his fists.
Carlos just followed him. Dan seemed like a slightly unsteady man, but Carlos felt alright since they were on the same side of this ordeal.
“What’s the plan when we get there? Do we just walk in, or are there any windows to peer through first?”
“We could look in the window, but then again, he might have closed the blinds.”
“Since it’s me he’s after, I could cause a distraction to lead him away from Max so you can get him out of there safely.”
“And I know the perfect way to get his attention…” Dan reached into his back pocket & pulled out a small box labelled ‘Devil Bangers’. He opened the box & took out one of the contents; a small wad of paper about the size of a dime. “Just need to throw a couple of these things at his feet or his face & that’ll get him pissed enough to start chasing after me. Once he’s out of my apartment, you sneak in & grab Max. Sound like a plan?”
“That’s if he’s in the apartment. But It certainly sounds like a plan.” Whether it was a good one, remained to be seen, but Carlos was willing. “Does… Dan* not like mess or something?”
