Sleeping Penguins II

Template:Violence

This tale has been told! It's done!

A few years after Sleeping Penguins, a gangster of the now international Triad named Vince got imprisoned after a clumsy accident. Coming out of jail after his bosses pulled some strings, he seeked to restore all of his lost honor.

Prologue

After the events of Sleeping Penguins that resulted in the Triad becoming weaker, the top Zhouese leaders decided to be less conservative and opened up memberships for all races. Because of the move, foreign members became leaders of the International Syndicate. The new leaders struck on an idea-counterfeit money. They were doing a great job, until one of the leader got arrested. The police kept the evidence in a government building guarded by EPF agents. The night before the trial, our hero was sent to destroy it.

Boss:"Alright, this is a hard job but your training as one of our elite mercenary make this job like a walk at the park. Here's your equipment. This is a modified Welrod pistol that can fire 5 shots before reloading. Take the barrel apart and you will have a pen and a lighter."

Vince:"For what?"

Boss:"Smoke it and you will be unconscious for 9 hours. The effects are caused by a poison that melts everything. It's in the form of smoke."

Vince:"What else?"

Boss:"But I doubt that would happen as you are given 6 magazines of ammo. Your third and final equipment is a simple good old Sony Ericsson. It had a safe cracking application installed in it that can't be normally accessed. It's near midnight, Vince. Go now."

Vince:"Yes sir."

With that, he left the office and got onto a bike. He rode to the government building and saw a guard.

Vince:"The name's Johnson, sir. Here to deliver a package."

Guard:"Okay."

With that, Vince got into the building. He took a lift to the floor containing the evidence. When he arrived, 3 EPF agents threw him a party.

EPF Agent 1:"FREEZE!!!"

The agents were serious, they had their shotguns and SMGs pointing at Vince. Without thinking of surrendering, Vince took out the Welrod and shot at the agents. He went to the evidence room and knocked out another agent. He saw the safe and he was tempted to blow it up. The thought went away when Vince suddenly thought of his training. He remembered how he cracked a safe once with a bomb and the instructor beat him up for it.

Using the stealthy way the instructor taught him and other mercenaries, he used the application to open the safe. It took 10 minutes-enough time for Vince to take care of almost all agents with rather lethal ways. When the safe opened, he destroyed the evidence. All tracks of his boss's dirty dealings just melted.

After all that, he got down to the ground floor to make an exit. Some agents are pointing their weapons at Vince now.

Agent 1:"Freeze!"

Agent 2:"You are so busted!"

Vince:"Alright, I surrender!"

The two agents fell asleep and Vince shot the third with the Welrod. Mission success, Vince thought to himself. He got onto his bike and made the stupidest mistake ever. When he woke up, he found himself in jail.

Chapter 1:Restoring Honour

After 5 months, Vince got out of jail because his bosses pulled some strings. The syndicate sent some men to pick up Vince and sent him back to the HQ.

Boss:"Glad you made it. Alright, your first job is simple. Bet $3,000,000 in a boxing match. Bet that "The Stinger" will lose."

Vince:"Alright, you're right it's too easy."

---

Vince went the boxing arena. He saw the Stinger practicing by lifting weights.

Vince:"Here's your energy drink Stinger. I am your biggest fan."

The Stinger, being arrogant, took the poisonous energy drink and drank it. Then the match started, the opponent defeated the Stinger easily. The Stinger's fans all betted their life savings on him and he lost. They turned their anger on Vince. One of them took a bat and tried to beat him up. Vince beat the guy up. Soon, some of the Syndicate's thugs helped Vince. Vince fought 20 guys and killed 6 of them and the rest got injured, the Syndicate thugs fought more people and also killed many. Soon small gangs sent their thugs to get their cash backs and turned it into a gunfight.

Vince:"There's too many of them. Retreat with the cash!"

Thugs:"Yes sir!"

Vince and his men stole a car and escaped to the night. The bosses were sastified of the millions they made but our protagonist ain't. He took an ice bullet AK-47 and went to a rival gang's HQ. With his gun, he shot all of them dead and burnt the base. When he was escaping to the night, Vince faced a roadblock.

Officer 1:"License please."

Without saying a word, Vince reversed his car and ran over the officer. He had some police cars chasing him. Using the usual tactics, Vince stopped his (actually stolen) car and ran away by foot. Police being police, the officers checked his car but it exploded when he detonated a bomb. Well that isn't real honour but Vince felt like he was twice as powerful as he was before he went to jail.

The next day, his bosses called him.

Boss:"Vince! So I had heard about you trying to restore your honour. There's a Judgies deal by a cartel and it was to be transported by train to a warehouse. Ambush the train and take as much Judgies and cash as possible. Then blow up the train and destroy the warehouse."

Vince:"Sure! What's in it for me?"

Boss:"First you get your "honour". Second, you will be offered a place in our board of directors (leaders)."

Vince:"No cash?"

Boss:"No, but we will make you a shareholder of a casino."

Vince:"Sounds good."

---

It was afternoon, Vince and his men were waiting at one of the many stops. Finally, the train arrived.

Vince:"NOW!!!"

Vince and his men took out their guns and fired at the train. Pretty soon, everyone in there were dead.

Vince:"Roger conducts the train. The rest, it's plunder time!"

Thugs:"Yes sir!"

In the journey, Vince and his men stole a total of $140 millions worth of Judgies and cash. At each stop, there were guards so Vince shot them all. When they arrived at the warehouse, Vince took out a RPG. Using an incendiary round, he blew up the warehouse. Mission accomplished.

Chapter 2:Retirement Planning

After the Train job, Vince had restored his honour and got a prestigious seat at the Syndicate. One thing seems to be missing in Vince's life. In other words, it was the luxuries that the other directors enjoyed such as henchmen, limousines, private jets, private islands, mansions, flashy suits, a legitimate company and most importantly a long life. He called his henchmen to meet at his mansion.

Vince:"Alright boys, we are doing the biggest job in our life. This is the ultimate one."

Roger:"And what's that, boss?"

Vince":We are breaking the cartel that we just robbed at that one last job."

Michael:"How?"

Vince:"This cartel stored all of their wealth in a bank. They had their elites guarding it. This is billions of dollars we are talking about."

Steve:"How can we steal all that cash?"

Vince:"You'll be surprised."

---

Heist day.

Vince and his men arrived at the bank. They armed themselves with machine guns and shot everyone inside. More guards arrived and the biggest gang war just started.

Vince:"Steve! Call for reinforcements!"

Minutes later, bus loads of Syndicate men arrived to combat the Cartel goons or the military. Elsewhere, Roger found the vaults.

Roger:"Boss! There's a total of 45 vaults! What type of people stored that much money in a bank?"

Vince:"Don't mind. Call for helicopters to take them all away."

Roger:"But sir we don't have that much helicopters."

Vince:"We have an ally. Nutzil's airplanes are talking some of the vaults away. And what a deal I struck."

---

In 3 days time, the Syndicate/Nutzil alliance took all the cash away. Vince used his share to buy some casinos in Los Puffles. Finally he was a legitimate businessman, having a position in the Syndicate's board.

Chapter 3:Betrayal

Vince may found peace, but someone in his mob was causing trouble...

Steve:"I got bad news guys. Big Vince'd gone soft."

Michael:"So what?"

Steve:"I think he should go to retirement."

Roger:"Well just give him the advise to retire."

Steve & Michael:"YOU'D THOUGHT THAT HE'LL SIMPLY RETIRE FROM A POSITION OF POWER AND WEALTH ?!?!"

Steve:"We'll just have to arrange his retirement."

---

One day, Vince went to a nightclub. Roger came along as his bodyguard. A few hours later, they went for some Cream Soda.

Vince:"Alright there's another Judgies shipment 3 days later. Make sure everything's well and don't went too near the vehicle containing the Judgies. And if cops arrive, blast them with your AK."

Roger:"Yeah got it."

Vince:"And remember to collect the Castillian-themed casino's payoff this Friday."

While they are talking, 5 Khanz penguins sneaked into the club and gave a signal to Roger. Roger put some poison into Vince's mug and waited for him to drink it. When Vince didn't drank it, the thugs aimed a shotgun at Vince.

Roger:"Boss! Incoming threat!"

Roger pushes Vince aside.

The thug fired anyway but missed. The civilians started panicking and Roger shot the thug with his pistol. Soon, the SWAT teams stormed into the nightclub to capture Vince and Roger.

Vince:"Roger! Tell the boys to ram this place!"

Roger called Michael & Steve. A few minutes later, a classic styled but bulletproof armored limousine crashed into the nightclub.

Steve:"Get in, boss! We will cover you!!"

Michael drove the limousine while Steve and Roger fired their pistols at the Pengolian thugs. They soon ran out of ammo.

Roger:"Mike! We need to borrow your SMG."

Some thugs chased our protagonist by bike but soon they got shot down. After losing the threats the car drove to an alley.

Steve:"Sorry boss."

He punched Vince. Vince dodged the blow and tried to give Steve a savage kicking. Before he could, Michael hit Vince with a blunt weapon.

Michael:"DIE!!"

Michael fired his SMG, only to find out that it was out of ammo.

Michael:"Is there another gun?"

Roger:"There's an antique pistol in one of those hi-tech compartment."

Steve took the fancy gun and had trouble loading it. After a few minutes, he successfully loaded it and shot Vince. Michael then spat at Vince's corpse.

MORAL OF THE STORY: WHEN PEOPLE TOLD YOU TO RETIRE, RETIRE IMMEDIATELY AND HIRE SOME BODYGUARDS SO YOU WON'T BE KILLED.

Chapter 4:Mole in Team Traitor

Steve & Michael left Vince's corpse but Roger stayed. Something was up.

Roger:"Hey Vince. The traitors left."

Vince slowly recovered from the pain.

Vince:"Felt like being hit by fireworks. Darn, now what?"

Roger:"Have them taken care of."

Vince:"Uh... okay. Drive the limousine and take me back to my mansion."

Roger:"Yes sir."

---

After 8 hours of sleep, Vince woke up and got a new email. He opened it and led to a recorded message.

Director 1:"Hey, Big Vince. Next week's the annual chairman election. We've nominated you as a candidate. Your opponent is the current chairman."

Director 2:"Here's a tip. If you wanted to gain votes, destroy a rival before election."

Director 3:"Good luck."

With that said, Vince set his mind on what gang to destroy. He called his boys for a meeting.

Vince:"Gentlemen. We have a raid to do."

Roger:"What's it boss?"

Vince:"The Nutzilian Judgies Cartel. They proved to be a REAL competition and the reason why I take aspirin every week."

Gavin (replacement of Michael):"So what's the procedure, boss?"

Vince:"The cartel are delivering lots of things this Wednesday. First, they are delivering $ 3 million to the boss's mansion because the boss is going to gamble against 2 other bosses, a professional gambler and an expert in cheating in poker. They are also delivering 35 bottles of fine sparkling Cream Soda. Beside that, they are also delivering 30 kilos of Judgies."

Ray (Replacement of Steve):"How do we get in?"

Vince:"We will hide in the lorries, delivering the last two items. Well, we are going to the place where they are picking up the required items for the crooked meeting."

Derrick:"Rumors had it that they are also bringing in some hot babes."

Vince:"We'll talk about chicks after my election. Anyway, the plan. While we are there, we plant some time bombs in each warehouse. They had a stupid trick. They are picking up the items at different locations. We will have enough time to set each place full of bombs and detonate them."

Patrick:"Good plan."

---

The fateful day the Nutzilian Cartel fell-Wednesday

Our heroes are following the plan. They planted bombs at each warehouses. Some of the men pretended to be the other bosses' bodyguards and got enough time to plant bombs at their respective residences. A few hours later, the lorries finally reached the mansion.

Vince:"Pat. What is happening?"

Patrick, as a bodyguard, excused himself to go to the bathroom.

Patrick:"The bosses are gambling and the cheater is teaching the Nutzilian boss's con men how to cheat at poker."

Vince:"Drug the Cream Soda."

Patrick:"Yes boss."

Patrick went to the cellar and put sleep inducting pills into the bottles. Halfway through the gamble, the Nutzilian boss ordered his butler to bring the Cream Soda. They drank it and felt dizzy.

Patrick:"They are drunk, Big Vince!"

Vince and his men came out of hiding and shot the guards. They encountered resistance from the heavily armed Nutzilian elites.

Vince:"Dag nab it, Patrick. You should convince the elite guards to drink the doped soda!"

Patrick:"They just don't want to drink it!"

Pat fires his SMG at the elites, and Vince along with his men shot the elites. When the Nutzilians are down, 5 heavily armored and muscular penguins came out with miniguns.

Vince:"Oh come on! A minigun?!"

Vince fired his FN SCAR at them. After a long time, the last tough guy fell to his death. They saw the Nutzilian Judgies lord and shot him and the other bosses.

Vince:"Torch this place."

Ray:"Yes sir."

Ray took out a lighter and threw it on the ground. When it started to burn, the gang left the Nutzilian Mansion, forever leaving a BIG scar at the remaining Nutzilian Cartel (which is at the West of USA). They detonated the time bombs, officially annihilating the East Nutzilian Cartel (literally with all members dead, assets seized, properties destroyed and all influence of it forced to disappear).

Election Day

Today's the big day. The remaining Triad leaders that survived the carnage of the first episode-Mr. Tong & Winston Chu-were sitting at one side with the former chairman and Dragon Head of the Triad after Uncle Ho died-Uncle Lü. Three other Zhouese directors by the name of Mr. Qin, Mr. Wong and Zhu Jaoming replaced Sonny Wu, Wei and Lee. On the other side are the international directors. Naturally the Zhouese have the biggest power but made the election fair. The man with the biggest influence and respect-Uncle Lü made a speech in Cantonese.

Uncle Lü:"我们今天在这里见面是为了选一个好主席。"

Translator:"The purpose we meet here today is to elect a good chairman."

Uncle Lü:"Our candidates are Vince-our newest director, me and one of Vince's men whose name is Michael."

Upon hearing that Michael is a candidate, Vince was shocked but remained calm.

Uncle Lü:"Let the voting began. Each person has one vote only. No bribery, please. You first, Mr. Tong."

Mr. Tong:"I vote for Vince."

Mr. Qin:"I vote for Uncle Lü."

Mr. Zhu:"I vote for Uncle Lü too."

Winston:"Vince."

Ligurian Director 1:"Vince."

Ligurian Director 2:"Vince as well."

Lisboagese Director:"Uncle Lü."

Joseon Director:"Vince."

Mr. Wong:"Uncle Lü."

Snoss Director:"Uncle Lü."

Alemanian Director:"Vince."

Nutzilian Director:"Vince. He destroyed my competition."

Roger:"I vote for Vince, too."

Pengolian Director:"Uncle Lü."

Ruscan Director 1:"Uncle Lü."

Ruscan Director 2:"Vince."

Uncle Lü:"Alright, the voting ended as the last director had voted. Vince, you have won. Congratulations Vince; be a good chairman."

Vince:"Of course I will. But first, I need to put on some demonstration. Michael and Steve, I have a reward for you!"

Michael and Steve came out and waited for the reward.

Vince:"For your lethal betrayal and shooting me with an antique pistol, I had decided to cancel your debts."

Michael:"Oh, thanks."

Vince:"By ending your lives first."

Vince took a baseball bat and knocked Michael down. He made him kneel and took out a shotgun. Vince aimed the shotgun at Michael's mouth and shot him. He took an AK and shot Steve to death as well.

Vince:"Guards. Throw them into a furnace."

The guards obeyed and took the corpses away.

Vince:"My first act as chairman will gain us lots of power and wealth. I am going to install 7 guys into the South Pole Council."

Uncle Lü:"Wow, a shadow government."

Vince:"Of course, we will also continue our usual dirty businesses."

Mr. Tong:"Well, that relieved me."

Vince:"And next, seize control of the newspaper."

Epilogue

Our first hero, Wei was at his office, drinking a cup of coffee and checking some files. While he was doing that, a beautiful assistant gave him a file and give him a kiss.

Assistant:"Oh, darling you won't believe this."

Wei:"Just what the heck did I miss in my career ? Well well well, I did miss this. A military base robbed."

Assistant:"Believe it or not, it isn't the Syndicate that you infiltrated."

Wei:"I could use some help with the said Syndicate that I infiltrated.
