Chapter 12: the Docks
Keith arrived at the construction site, apparently being the second one there as Franklin had arrived before him.
-
"Franklin… Devin and you are?"
Keith greeted the three people interrupting the conversation they were having
"Molly Schultz, I am Mister Weston's..."
"Yes, Yes.. Keith was it?.. ye you came to my house… anyway I was just explaining the job to my new friend.."
"We just met, homie."
Franklin didn't really seem as enthusiastic as Devin as if he was bewildered by his intensity.
"We will be. Now let me tell you something."
Devin turned back to Keith and guided him aside.
"What do you need?"
"Well this is a Three person job… so you will not be in it… but, and here comes the good news… we got you something all on your own… what do you think?"
"Well I am here to hear you out so spill it."
"Great enthusiasm buddy…"
"What do I hear about you getting exited cause I sure am.."
Trevor had arrived and was looking intensely at Molly.
"Aaah, of course! You must be the creepy one…"
"And that's coming from you? Please!"
Trevor had arrived and was checking on Molly in a obvious way.
"Mmmh, so whats going on?"
"You and Michael are gonna dress up as traffic cops and you're gonna rob two trust fund kids… while Franklin will get them on the rights speed.."
"Why."
"Because we get a good price for the vehicles in Asia. Look, complete the work, you'll all be well paid." Molly explained while the rest listened
"So what is Keith going to do? Ahh? He is one of my business associate so…"
"He will get go on his own and steal a car that is arriving to the port inside of a container."
Just as Molly was about to explain further Michael arrived. Devin being a duch interrupted to make a remark.
"You are late, sugar tits!"
"Yup, so what's going on?"
"Oh-oh-oh.. You finally get to realise your childhood dream and dress up as a cop."
Keith watched as Trevor and Michael bantered around, reminding him of his old crew.
"Mr. Weston research team suggests the two boys ride on the Senora Freeway. Now Keith you will be getting a call when you arrive to the docks, you will be let through the gate once so don't mess around.."
Molly got inside of the car opened by the driver who had gotten out of the car to open both passenger doors.
"Sounds manageable."
Franklin tried lightening up the mood but Devin was quick to get them to work.
"Hey! You three get going."
"Lets go, T."
"Nice seeing you three.. but I am going the other way."
"See you around K."
Michael said goodbye while Trever just nodded while scratching his balls.
-
Keith had arrived to the Docks via a Taxi, he didn't want to leave his car behind at the docks as that would kind of het suspicions with time. He could have also stolen a car but that would just get complicated.
As he was walking down to pass the checkpoint area making sure not to be directly seen by a camara he got a call from a unknown phone number.
"Hello?"
{"This is Molly Schultz, we spoke before… I have been informed that you have arrived to the designated area."}
"That's correct.. so what am I searching for?"
{"Well the car we are looking for just got here by boat, it is meant to be off and gone within the hour so you might want to move quick."}
"Sure… so where is it?"
{"the car Should be inside the container STLS 1786742."}
"So anything further to add???"
{"You might want to search near the soon to leave containers."}
Molly hung up the phone leaving Keith bewildered with how he was supposed to find a container on a Dock full of them.
"Search near the area that is soon to leave she says.. How the Fuck am I supposed to know where that is!"
Keith was fuming but he came up with a plan as soon as he saw a clipboard and Yellow fest unattended for on a table near the entrance.
"Nice.."
Keith hoped that if he could be seen as a inspector, than he would have full exes to the document containing the information as to how it was arranged.
…
Looking at himself Keith would say that he looked professional as he walked around the Terminal looking for someone he could fool into believing him to be a inspector.
Just as he was turning a corner he bumped into a security guard.
"What's wrong with you!"
"Oh sorry.. I was looking for something and wasn't paying attention to where I was going."
Keith tried to persuade the guard making It seem as though he did it accidentally
"What are you searching for that you don't pay attention to where you are going?"
"Well I was ordered form above to make sure the new batch of containers were delivered safely, having special orders to make sure of the quality of a specific container, but I am not familiar with the area and my boss said to just figure it out."
The security guard gained a sympathetic look while listening to Keith lie through his teeth
"I know the feeling… you said the last batch of containers with one particular you are looking for?"
"Yes.. the container I was supposed to check will be delivered soon and if I don't make sure that it is in the best condition than I will be on the chopping block.."
"Let me guide you."
The guard radioed in to inform them that he was going to help someone and that he will be going to the new load.
He only moved after he got the go ahead of his supervisor, guiding Keith right to the containers
…
"So which one are you looking for?"
Keith looked down at his stolen clipboard as to pretend he was reading it and said
"STLS 1786742.."
"You said that it would be shipped out soon right?"
"Yes I was informed that it would be within the hour and that was almost twenty minutes ago."
"Your boss certainly doesn't give you enough time.."
Keith laughed a bit and replied
"Most of the time I try to create space by preparing for jobs but I can only do so much.."
"Let me radio in to confirm it is still here… Yo Tom I am looking for a container as there might be faulty property inside."
{"Which container.."}
"STL…. What was it again?"
"STLS 1786742."
"You hear that Tom, or do I…"
{" STLS 1786742 right… it was supposed to leave but the guy delivering it lost his clipboard with information after leaving it to go to the bathroom… he is currently printing another one and will leave soon so if you still want to check it than it is in loading dock three.."}
"Thanks Tom."
The security Guard guided Keith to lauding dock three were a Truck with container stood abandoned.
"Thank you soo much… I will check it real quick to make sure of the product."
"It was no problem.. Guard duty is boring anyway… well good luck."
The security guard left with an awkward smile on his face, leaving Keith with the Truck and nobody there to stop him from taking it.
Keith got into the cabin communicated to the overseer that he was moving the truck so other trucks could get a container and to not clock up the system.
After he got the go ahead he started the truck by rewiring it and drove to the exit that he was informed of getting open without a check if he mentioned that it was for Devin.
….
The ride to the drop-off was as smooth as it could have gone, as manoeuvring a truck with a container on the streets of LS was not easy.. not because of the roads but because of the drivers who just couldn't drive.
As he got out he called Michael to ask how they were holding up.
{"Hello Keith, something happened?"}
"No.. I was just wondering how your car acquisition is going.."
{"It hasn't started yet, from what I know Franklin has just get them to race a couple miles back so we will be here for a while."}
"Really… man here I was hoping we could go for that drink, maybe even with the four of us."
{"We will get to that another time now we just…."}
The phone stopped the call showing the text that it was interrupted by another call between Franklin and Michael.
Keith knew that they still hadn't finished their job, so he hanged up the call and just texted him with the question as to when they could hang out.
He also send a message to Molly that the car was in place and to contact him again if they got a job for him.
-
Keith was back home modifying a bike that was delivered to his Clubhouse. It was already around the time men would get home from work.
With his current financial state he could invest in some property but from past jobs he knew thar Lesters type of investing was best.
So after Keith finished the engine tunes of the bike, he called Lester.
"Lester how are you doing?"
{"Doing good *snort* why did you call?"}
"Well you know how I am looking to expand my business right?"
{"Sure.. what's your point?"}
"I am looking for a lucrative investment….?"
{"I will send you a location and a time.. don't be late!"}
"I understand. See you around."
{"*snort* sure."}
Lester hung up the phone
After a couple of minutes Keith got a text informing him of the place and time.
The place would be Pillbox Hill early morning around seven o clock meaning that Keith would have to get up by six if he was to make it on time.
"This better be worth it."
Keith muttered to himself hoping that the job would be worth it as he was not a morning person but really more of a drink till midnight kind of guy.
Making the smart decision to just get to bed early Keith is disappointed that he can't sleep so he decided to exercise a bit, to make him feel tired.
Doing the base one hundred push up, one hundred sit ups didn't really make him tired, or at least he hasn't really felt tired in a while… sleep was a important part of his health but even when exercising he hasn't felt fatigue.
Keith wondered if it had something to do with this city as Franklin seemed to also have sometimes supernatural grip, and Michael seemed to be too accurate for his age, having possibly the best aim he had ever seen displayed at the Blitz play job as he watched from afar..
He didn't know if Trevor had the same but if he did then this would be some kind of fate. Having four supernatural's each gifted in one area.. it would be fun but there was nothing like the supernatural as far as Keith knew..

Keiths Dream
As Keith had finally begun to sleep a strange light came down from the sky lighting up the area around his house showering it blinding light.
Keith was watching himself get taken up by the light caried trough a hole that had appeared in the building.
It seemed as though he was looking from his soul as his body was being taken up… in the blink of a eye he was on a operating table, feeling the rigid metallic feeling on his back while he looked on as two aliens cut out some internal flesh as a specimen
…
Waking up Keith realised that the cold metallic feeling he got was from his sweat that was beginning to build up was his heartbeat increased.
Looking at his digital clock he saw that it was only half five but going back to sleep would be useless so he decided to take a cold shower.
