Code Of Silence ~ Vinnie Hacker

Chapter 5: questions

"Okay, when?" Elina questioned making her way towards the fridge, "Now." Violet answered again, putting on her jacket as she adjusted her jacket and went to grab their bags.

"Now?" Elina gave her a look of confusion, opening up the cap of her water bottle.

"Yes. Now let's go we're gonna be late, I memorized the adress and to our luck, it's not that far away."Violet crossed her arms with Elina as she softly pulled her outside of the apartment, making their way towards the elevators.

"El, we're here."Elina turned her head towards violet, quickly following her eyes and reading sign put in-front of the building they stopped at, quickly getting out of the car while her eyes scanned the front door, wondering if they are in the wrong place.

"Come one." She heard while say as they made their way towards the building, Elina refused to ask any questions because she knew what he bestfriend was doing, but still was hard to process that a buissness man who makes millions would go for fun.

"This is known to be one of the most secret places in Seattle, people make millions in there." Violet whispers as they knock on the door, making Elina frown, "And how do you know about it if it's a secret?"She questions violets smirk, "I know a guy, he makes millions here, he kind of runs this place." Violet answers as her smirk widens, "Oh?" Elina questions again as they enter the place with caution, the dark place inside makes Elina frown even more, wondering what they do here.

"What do they even do here?" She questions, hearing the door make a buzz sound, knowing it was the sound of the door unlocking.

"Come on you'll see." Violet answered, grabbing her by the arm to drag her inside.

The second they passed a long hallway they were faced with the smell of weed, men yelling at each-other, covering the quite sounds of punching bags getting beaten up.

"Hey, you." Elina watched as the blonde made his way towards Violet, opening his arms to greet her.

"Malakai." Violet smiled as she gave him a quick hug, turning back to introduce Elina.

"This is my bestfriend, Elina." Violet brought her closer, "El, this is Malakai." she introduced them.

Elina watched the blonde motioning to shake her hand as his hair fell over to the side, "Please, call me kai." he said as he shook her hand.

She couldn't tell where she'd hear that name before, but it felt like she's seen him before, somewhere she couldn't recall remembering at all.

"So, what can I do for you darling?" kai questioned as he turned his back from them, walking back  towards a box ring as their stares followed him.

"Right, okay so we need your help for something." Violet started walking towards him as Elina stayed still, looking at a picture that was framed on the wall.

She could hear violet talking in the background but all she was focused on was the picture, she couldn't keep her eyes off of it.

The picture included four people, laughing while they held each-other tight, she could recognize only two of those people, Malakai and Vinnie-

Vinnie Hacker.

Her smile disappeared as she realized who she was looking at. truth be told it was a long time since she's seen him, and the only way she could recognize him was through the pictures violet showed her.

He looks so happy.

She thought to herself as she looked at the two women standing beside him, she couldn't recognize them, and a lot of questions were resurfacing her mind.

"It was his first championship win." She heard a woman's voice behind her, turning around to be faced with a black haired girl, immediately recognizing her from the photograph on the wall.

"That was the first time Vinnie made it to the top league, we stayed up until late to help him train, it all payed off to this picture." The girl came closer, "I'm tiffany by the way."She said as Elina recognized her from violets facts 'And that, that's Tiffany, the closest thing the Hackers have to a daughter, like a sister to Vinnie as I heard.' her brows tied as she remembered the facts.

"And you are Elina." tiffany smiled weakly, revealing a small dark bruise under her lip.

"I'm sorry have we met before?" Elina questioned, wondering how she knew her from before.

"Through third parties, yes." Tiffany's smiled weakened as she lowered her head, looking down at her feet.

"And who is the other woman standing right next to you in this picture?" Elina tried to save the awkward silence.

"Oh, Astrid." Tiffany looked up to glare at the picture. "Old friend."

The awkward silence continued as they both looked at the picture, a few moments they were interrupted by Kai and violets footsteps.

"Oh I suppose you already introduced yourself to each-other, so let's get started on our plan shall we." Kai finished quickly, putting his hands into his pockets.

"Does Vinnie know about this yet?" Tiffany questioned kai as Elinas heartbeat rose to the sky at the mention of his name.

"Inpatient are we?" kai answered, "Don't worry, we will inform him tonight after the game." he finished his answer.

"Speaking of the game, tonight could be the perfect opportunity for us to start the plan." Violet interrupted, "Me and El will go home and gather as much information as we can about the third party." she continued, "And I need you two to get us all the info you have of the drug and the Hackers." She finished, grabbing onto Elinas arm.

"Will do, see you tonight." Kai finished.
