Tommy!!! Oh god, god, listen, listen, uh, listen. I like fish and love fish, I love them as pets in bowls or as food on the plate, but as much as I love them, I don’t want to sleep with them okay cool! Cool Tommy! said Leonce.
I am not joking, you idiot! Get them boys. These **** people never understand a thing, finish it off, ordered Tommy.
Now, Tommy’s gangsters were twelve, Ameer’s eight stood no chance. They were cornered pretty well by Tommy. Soon everyone was made to kneel before Tommy with their tied hands and that included six gangsters along with Ameer and two yacht workers. One handed Manav was tied to the flagpole of the yacht.
(Tommy kept his pistol at Ameer’s head)
You want to be your father, Hahahaha! Both of you are clowns. I will grab all the wealth of Nazeer by torturing you, once he is empty, I will I finish you both, Hahahaha! I worked fifteen years for your father as a slave. I didn’t get any benefits for that. But, now I will make him pay! Hahahaha! said Tommy.
You will regret pointing the pistol at me Tommy, said Ameer filled with rage.
Soon Tommy felt hot air blow grazing his face, that was a bullet. It shot one of his gangster named Sunny right through his head.
Who shot Sunny? Screamed Tommy losing control.
Hey Tommy, don't you know, no one can shoot Sunny, only the sunny rays can shoot us, joked Lee pointing towards the sun.
You ****!! Die, shouted Tommy and attempted to fire a shot from his gun.
Soon a bullet rocketed from the right side of the yacht hitting Tommy at his forearm before he releases the bullet. Rapidly another bullet hit Manav’s rope and untied him. Manav hit the nearby gangster with his one hand, grabbed his gun and shot the head of a gangster who stood next to Tommy.
Soon there were shots fired away and bullets kept playing hide and seek with Tommy and his gangsters. Meanwhile, Manav untied Ameer, Leonce, Peter, and David in the yacht. Ameer viewed the surrounding area to see where the bullets were coming from, and then he saw Royston, John, and Mosses with their rifles. Soon the thugs took out the lives of Tommy’s gangsters on the yacht.
Within seconds the tables turned around and they tied Tommy and Jimmy's hands at their back and made to kneel before Ameer.
Somebody said he would grab the wealth of Nazeer by torturing his son, Ha! Ha! Ha. It won’t happen till I’m alive. You are the real clown Tommy, said Royston with a smile.
(Yacht started from Miami port)
Remember I said you will regret this, no one to cover your **** now. Eh!!! Tommy, Wow!!! See who’s next to you! The brave man, Jimmy!!! You messed up last minute Jimmy. Throw them into the sea, let the piranhas take their lives, ordered Ameer.
No! No! Please forgive me ji! I will serve you like a dog for the rest of my life, please forgive me, begged Jimmy.
Oh Jimmy, a few minutes back you were talking about business right, this is business. You are the first one going down, you backstabbing ****! Ameer shot Jimmy and ordered David to throw his body into the sea.
Oh! Tommy! I never intended to kill you, but the words you spoke about my father weren’t faithful. Now go to hell, at least live faithful there, said Ameer and splattered Tommy’s head with his bullets.
Royston and Ameer were still a little upset thinking of the backstabber Jimmy. But Lee didn’t seem upset at all. Lee and Mosses were unpacking the sacks and bags taken from the museum.
Where are we heading now? To Goa….!, asked Lee to Ameer.
No!!! We won’t be able to sell all these precious monuments and antiques in India, we will stay in Bermuda for a week and finish our deal with the merchant there and move to India, replied Ameer.
It’s pretty nice to hear dude! We are going to our home as millionaires!! Wow!! That’s great, said Lee.
Meanwhile, Mosses took the triangular trinket box which mesmerized him in the museum, he was eager to know what was inside. The box was locked. He used his knife to unlock the box, while he unlocked the box, everyone’s eyes in the yacht turned towards the box. Mosses knife wasn’t much help, his efforts were going to the dogs.
I think there is no way to open this box, said Mosses with disappointment.
If there is no way, we must make a way for it, a voice came from the flagpole. That was Sammy who stood with a welding machine in his hand.
Are you saying to weld this lovely box into two pieces! No, I won’t allow it. The box looks majestic. It alone will sell for millions, said Mosses.
I have a solution for it, instead of welding it into two pieces, make a hole at the bottom of the box, let’s check what’s in it, and then we will decide how to cut it, said Peter.
I agree with Peter, make a hole at the bottom, said Mosses and Sammy welded the box at the bottom and made a hole at the center. Mosses tried peeking inside the hole but he couldn’t see the full image but saw something shiny. He shook the box and brought it close to his ears.
Does that sound like diamonds, eagerly asked Leonce.
No, the waves behind are too loud for me to figure this out, regretfully replied Mosses.
Sammy, weld the bottom and remove it, ordered Ameer. As per his order, Sammy welded the bottom, when 95% had been removed Mosses grabbed the box from Sammy.
Now, let's see what’s inside, said mosses and eagerly pulled the remaining bottom that was sticking. As soon as he laid eyes on it, his jaw dropped and he was in awe. On a red velvet cloth, there was a triangle like structured pale sea blue colored gem 10cm in height, it looked like a crystal in the shape of a pyramid.
Ameer!! Come, check out what we have here..! I think it’s worth bloody millions. Tell us how much we could get for it, asked Mosses.
Ameer took the gem, examined it and after a few minutes said, this gem looks peculiar. I haven’t seen a gem in this color before, moreover never seen one with so much shine. It's a rare piece.
Is that so..! Then I would become a millionaire with this single gem itself, excitedly said Mosses.
Wait!! It has got something else on it. See, there are some inscriptions on it, said Ameer and showed the inscriptions. Ameer kept the gem in his left palm and touched the sharp top edge of the gem with his right hand. He knew it was not an ordinary gem, it was more like a puzzle, and the gem had rotatable four rows and six columns. Ameer rotated the rows and columns.
Once we find the right combination for it, I think we would make the most out of this rare jewel, said Ameer and rotated it all the sides.
John noticing all of this from the flagpole of the yacht shouted; Hey, I am an expert on puzzles, throw it let me see if I can find the right combination. Soon Ameer threw the gem to him but he too wasn’t able to find the right combination, soon the gem was passed from the hands of John to Peter, and started moving to the rest of the gang.
Meanwhile, In Egypt,
The archeologist Hannah found a papyrus about the key of Empyrea in the King's chamber. It was self-written by King Djoser to his next generation for entering Empyrea.
From the words of the King,
After the death of Emperor Mysterio, Prince Horus requested me to safeguard the key of Empyrea. So, I designed a special box of my own to hide the key. I created three locks for the safety of the box, made two keys out of my ancestors crown gems and used my finger as the key for the third lock. I kept the key of Empyrea inside the box and created many traps inside my chamber. As you now know how to get into the chamber and how to open the box, make sure after me you also protect the key to safeguard our lives. Use it only when it is absolutely dire circumstances. Prince Horus will be available anytime in Empyrea to help you out.
The key of Empyrea is a triangle shaped gem with some puzzles on it, for converting the gem to the key, the puzzle needs to be solved. Inscribes on it will help you solve the puzzle. The solution will be the insignia of the empyrean Kingdom. The most vital secret about the key is, it will work only on that particular area of concealed doors, which is situated at the backside of “Isle of devils” (Bermuda).
The door can be
found with the help of the key itself, the insignia on it will glitter when you reach the door. After reaching the door, drop the key into the sea, it will open a sea portal to Empyrea. Make sure you land together, don’t stray from the group at the door, and don’t forget to pick the key after landing in Empyrea.
The papyrus ended with how to solve the inscribed puzzle. The things she read in the papyrus made Hannah feel like a fool!
Obviously, the trinket box which Hannah found in the secret chamber was the secret box designed by King Djoser, the one that she later transited to the museum. Now, this was the same box that Mosses took from the museum and the gem inside the box was nothing but the key of Empyrea, which will open the concealed door situated at the backside of “Isle of devils”, which is called as Bermuda nowadays.
Middle of the sea, in the yacht,
At last, the gem with the puzzles came into the hands of Royston, he tried something different and found the puzzle to be based on inscribes drawn on it. He guessed the combination will reveal a letter or a sign on the gem, he almost finished it, and all that was left was a row that needed to be rotated. But, abruptly Mosses grabbed the gem from the hands of Royston and moved away.
I only found this box. This is the gem which is going to make me rich..! It belongs only to me. I will find the right combination myself. He found the right combination by rotating the last row. He celebrated his victory by lifting the gem upwards. Mosses’s joy didn't last long, abruptly a bullet hit the gem and it fell on the floor of the yacht.
The bullet came from the gun of the Interpol guards, who chased them in high-tech speedboats. Just when they thought they had hit a jackpot, countless speedboats were zipping around the yacht making life impossible.
Oh no! Not again, don’t stop the yacht, drive faster, we will manage these freaks, said Leonce.
Defend the yacht! Once we reach Bermuda we would be safe, just a few more miles to go. Fast! Fast! Fast, ordered Royston to Mosses.
They are attacking from the starboard! Spread out all over the yacht, take the cops down and show them the power of our gang, shouted Lee.
The guards rounded the yacht! There were 12boats in total. Take our weapons, show them who we are. Royston, Lee, let's move towards the edge of the boat and attack the cops. John, Peter, and Sammy you defend us. Mosses, quick, get us to Bermuda soon. The rest of you, take out as many guns as you can from the top deck, ordered Ameer.
The thugs aren't feared much about the cops, peter lighted up his cigar and took the sniper. John wore his coolers and picked his bow and arrow. Sammy picked the grenades and AK-47 by chewing the Chiclets.
Soon the firing started from the guards but it just to miss the thugs, in return Sammy hurled the ball sized mini bomb right into the nearby boat of Interpol guards. The bomb blasted Boom! Boom! Boom! in an orange fury when the guards leaped out. The bombs sent the guards scattering, but they kept charging.
Everywhere I look, there are cops! I hate them, said Lee and fired away.
The guards too in return fired and were taking them down one by one.
Hey, Mosses! We are getting hit here! Turn the yacht the other way, shouted John.
Mosses was handling the yacht with exceptional talent, literally showing off his stunts and it helped the others take down the cops easily.
Leonce was using the shotgun and its bullets were playing snooker with the hearts of coastal guards. Eat it! Eat it! Sleep with the fish! Screamed Leonce all the while shooting the cops.
Damn! Damn! Look! Look! There is a chopper on us. There are gunmen on that chopper! Guess it’s the SWAT team..! Shoot, don’t let anything happen to the yacht! Yelled Mosses.
Leonce! Take down the chopper. We will take care of the cops here, said Sammy.
Anytime they could launch a missile on us! Shoot! Shoot! Finish them now, screamed Mosses.
Rayman, the Interpol officer, led the fire party with another chopper named A-351.
I set you down, and you are on the way! Attack them and bring back the properties belonging to the museum, ordered Rayman to the SWAT team in the chopper. Soon his chopper dropped the SWAT team on the yacht.
Watch out, they’re coming from everywhere! Fire! Fire! Shouted Peter.
Interpol officer Rayman showcased his firing skills from the chopper, from up above he has Ameer in his sights, took his gun, aimed at his head and shot a bullet, Toof! The bulled raced towards Ameer, luckily he dodged towards the deck, and the bullet hit Ameer's shotgun and sent it spinning. Ameer managed to hide under a table, but to his surprise, the table was already booked by Manav.
Hey dude! Why are you hiding here! Did you run out of ammo, take the AK-47! This is a war zone! Take out some of those gunmen on the sea, so I’ll finish the SWAT men on our yacht, ordered Ameer and pulled out the double Uzi gun from his back and fired all around him.
Sammy pulled the pin on a grenade and tossed it out in front of the speedboats. Whoomph! A jet of water goes up, but too far behind the boats. He pulls another pin and ready to throw when the guard’s boat pulls up alongside the yacht. A Chief guard after noticing this action of Sammy aims and fired against Sammy and the bullet grazed Sammy's arm. He loses his grip and the grenade bounces towards Mosses and hit his leg.
Hey, who is playing soccer at this time, shouted Mosses without seeing the grenade. When he sighted it he scattered with words and kicked it out of the yacht, within a fraction of a second it blasted. BOOOOM!!!.
Peter climbed up to the second story of the yacht, and from there he can shoot without being spotted. He took his lit cigar and tucked it behind his left ear. He takes the coastal guards and SWAT team one by one with his sniping skills, he is a cold blooded sniper, his bullets went through the front glasses of the boats and injected into the bodies of his foe.
When Rayman saw the SWAT Team going down, he ordered the choppers to launch the missiles on the yacht. The Pilot locked the missile target and launched it.
Mosses gearing up the yacht did a spectacular turn, the missile missed the yacht and dropped into the sea, it erupted mountain of water to the sky. Mosses brilliant swerves protected the yacht from the missile, but he wasn’t able to avoid the minor damages to the yacht.
Royston! We are being overrun by the chopper! And, the yacht is out of my control, we need to finish them quickly! Otherwise, we will not make it to Bermuda, shouted Mosses.
Just fix the yacht and get us to Bermuda soon, shouted Leonce.
It’s not going to be easy to fix this! Take them out, you idiot! If we go in this direction and with this same speed, we will reach Bermuda within an hour, replied Mosses.
You can’t escape! Surrender yourself, ordered Rayman through the mike and fired at the yacht.
Meanwhile, the key of Empyrea was rolling back and forth on the yacht.
It’s time to finish this, said Rayman and ordered to launch the other missile at the yacht. Mosses tried saving the yacht once again from the missile, his attempt was successful but he started to lose control of the yacht. The missile blew out the rudder of the yacht.
In between all of this, surprisingly the key of Empyrea started to glitter its insignia because they entered the place of the concealed door to Empyrea.
Ameer and Peter fired all the cops. Let’s all shoot at the chopper out in the sky, said Peter.
The yacht is really close to getting hit, Royston! Get up front and clear the route for the yacht, shouted Mosses.
It’s getting harder to take them down! Royston! Take those two choppers out with the rocket launcher! ordered Ameer.
You are going down, you freak! Said Royston and targeted the attacking chopper with his rocket launcher. He locked the target and shot, it hit the chopper, it exploded and crashed like a ball of flames, but the pilot got away in a parachute.
