[b]Rita Salzaras & Estabon Lopez - Gwinnet, Georgia Highway Rest Stop [/b] “200 pounds of cocaine, I see why your delivering this yourself Rita. You and your brother are quite the team.” “Why thank you Estabon, I got call that one of his suppliers best dealers was murdered it appears to be an empowered incident, he made me aware, even offered me to allow you guys to handle the shipment, but I’m already in America, and when it comes to 6 million dollars worth of coke I’ll handle it myself as I’ve done in the past, you know not many people outside of the higher ranking members of our organization are aware of that relationship.” Rita Salzaras spoke out. She was sitting in the passenger seat with Estabon driving, one of her most trusted men. They were moving in a box truck, on the side of the truck Nova Consolidated could be seen. Around them on the highway was a fleet of other box trucks, cocaine dispersed throughout them although a larger amount was in the truck Rita was riding in. In her lap was a semi automatic with an extended clip and to the right an RPG launcher. She placed her hands on the weapon and smiled. “Even if, one of these beings attempts to stop us, well...there bullet proof true enough but we’ll see how well the do with a rocket.” Estabon looked at Rita, and couldn’t help but have some admiration. True she was Hector Salzaras brother, and Jose had raised them both to be ruthless, but an RPG in a truck full of cocaine, ,while they had police connections who were going to do everything in their power to prevent them from being pulled over, she kept the RPG close. “Hopefully we will not find ourselves in that situation, we need to make a stop soon and refill.” “Noted, will do let’s do that now. We don’t need any distractions, we have 30 minutes at most before we get to the city.” She didn’t miss a beat, no fear about the drugs, the weapons she had, or how getting caught could jeopardize her United States citizenship. Before long they pulled off to the rest stop, it was about 9 trucks in total, and at least 22 men armed besides Estabon and Riddley moving with them. “Estabon I need to use the rest room, stand guard outside, unfortuntely I’ll have to leave this in the truck, but only momentarily, but it’s not as if anything will happen in the blink of an eye.” “Understand Rita, Miss Salzaras I mean.” “It’s fine Estabon.” Rita couldn’t help but giggle at Estabon’s professionalism. He’d been one of the Salzaras best security guards over the past ten years, and well paid for his skills. As they parked, the men of the Salzaras Cartel all dressed in civilian clothing with weapons tucked away begin filling the trucks, as Estabon escorted Rita to the rest room. [i] 6 Million dollars of coke, 100K in my own pocket, Hector’s plans to keep stepping up the shipments are really going in, we’ve been making drops across the states, once we hit Georgia, we can head back home, I’ll have made 5 million dollars..sometimes I wish I could find a way to retire [/i] Loyal to the family, with the money he was making now he was thinking of an exit strategy where he’d retain his head. These thoughts occupied his mind as he stood outside of the rest room, he had on security clothes as to not arouse any curiosity from onlookers about why he was carrying a weapon at the rest stop. Still he didn’t day dream for long, and looked down at his watch noticing nine minutes had passed. “Hmm..Rita! Are you in there?” He called but got no answer, he felt tense, griping his weapon and barging into the women’s rest room scaring an older middle aged caucasian white woman doing her make up. “What the fuck.” “I apologize, security, have a very high profile client in the rest room here.” “Sir!! There’s no one in here! I don’t know what kind of games your playing but I can call the fucking cops!” Estabon’s face scowled, the problem was it sounded like this woman was telling the truth but he couldn’t take any chances. “I see...well.” He lowered his weapon walking over to the stalls past the scared women. “I told you fucking creep! Now tell me why I shouldn’t ca-” Before she could finish Call Estabon lunged to the side and hit her in the skull with the butt of the gun. She collapsed to the ground, and Estabon picked up her slumped body and sat it in a stall, deciding against killing her. “Where the fuck did she go, Rita…” [i] THis dosen’t make any sense[/i] He looked around at his surroundings, and sent out a message to the others in the group text. [i] Rita Salzaras is missing, she was in the stall I can’t find her, this is an emergency situation we need this handled right now. [/i] Estabon was getting worried and stepped outside the bathroom to see the combination of his men and the Nova Consolidated security guards. Then the site that befell his eyes was confusing it was none other then Rita herself infuriated and yelling. As he approached, what he heard was even more puzzling. “What do you mean! You missing packages?! What the fuck” Rita barked making quite the scene at the rest stop, but to onlookers it could simply look like Nova Consolidated manager getting mad at employee’s for missing merchandise, if the didn’t let it escalate much farther. “What the fuck is going on! Weren’t you in the bathroom? How the fuck did you get out here?” Estabon questioned something wasn’t right about this situation. “There’s product missing.” “From which truck Rita, what happened, someone answer for this!” Now Estabon didn’t even care to further investigate how Rita got from the bathroom to outside yelling at hte men but what she said next shattered him. “All of them, all of it is gone! We’ve made checks every stop, so who the fuck stole.” The situation was getting out of hand, there were other cars parked at the rest stop. Some getting gas, some truck drivers resting, some smoking, the couldn’t make a scene, and have a whole bloody murder but the couldn’t move any farther if 200 pounds of cocaine went missing, this didn’t make any sense. “This...dosen’t….” He stopped and he saw something that made him pause, this woman looked like Rita, except for one detail a tattoo on her shoulder was missing, and his head began swimming as he raised his weapon to her. The others instantly were on alert, wondering why Estabon was turning. “Your not fucking Rita, where the fuck is Rita! I’m well aware of your kind, what the fuck did you do to her.” “Sir that’s clearly Rita Salzaras, are you high!” A Cartel member spoke up wanting to diffuse the situation as they were in public. “Shut the fuck up, look at her shoulder Rico! Look at it, the tattoo is gone, the tattoo of her father!” The soldier turned and was shook, although he didn’t understand what Estabon was getting at, every soldier in the unit knew the importance of that tattoo, not to mention she had it moments ago. The Rita imposter began chuckling and laughing as she looked at Estabon. “I guess your right, you might know me, there’s a bounty on my head, my name is Adora Zayas, but you all should start calling me Rita, Hector Salzaras sister. Not too many people know about her, but Greg Konnovich did, he’s a major reason she was able to keep her identity secret, making it appear she worked at Nova Consolidated, this is a nice scheme you cooked up. Using this woman Bella Nova’s company to transport coke across the state, and you people sent her a payment of 20 million for her services, shame she won’t get to make any additional money from moving the coke.” “Whatever parlor trick you did to look like Rita, snatch her from the bathroom and steal the coke undo it now or you’ll be killed.” Estabon barked infuriated at the situation, he wasn’t prepared to deal with superhuman interference. [i]This is the woman Hector spoke off, I don’t know what power she has but it’s dangerous. The Question now is how useful it is in combat, she made herself appear to be Rita attempting to turn me and the men against each other. [/i] “Really your going to shoot me in public? A supposed manager at Nova Consolidated, for what? Your trucks look like well supplied, except for the coke, I suppose you’ll have an explanation for why Rita’s security shot her at a rest stop, the situation is already tense, oh did I mention the police have been called. I told a gentlemen that I was kidnapped from Mexico by sex traffickers who are partnered with Nova Consolidated to launder women to the states as sex slaves. He’s probably still around.” “Let her go!!! You bastards!” Turning they saw a man in a grey suit with a gun of his own raised pointed at them, with another man pulling up in a pick up truck next to him. “She told me what ye sick bastards are doing, and the cops are on the way right now! “ “BILL!!! Thank you! Please!!! Help! “ Adora cried out in Rita’s voice as Bill gripped his gun even tighter pointing it at Estabon, people at the rest stop saw the tense situation and many began heading to their vehicles to leave not wanting to get involved, as police sirens were heard in the distance. [i] Damn it Bill, your always trying to play the god damn hero, we’ve been out the military for two fucking years, if I didn’t love I wouldn’t lift a finger to help this random girl. [/i] Jared was irritated at his fiancee, although he didn’t care about the situation, the girl had come to them crying and Bill wanted to play the hero again like their tour of duty in the middle east where they met wasn’t enough. Estabon was infuriated, the entire situation was falling apart. This Adora woman had stolen their coke, Hector’s sister, taken her form, got random civilians involved by claiming they were sex traffickers, had a police report filed that Nova Consolidated was involved with sex trafficking, and to top it all off the police were on the way and by the sound of the sirens they were getting closer. It felt like there was no way to come out of this situation victorious, but he knew if he wanted to keep his job & most importantly his life he’d at least need to save Rita wherever she was. [i] She could already be dead, I don’t even know what she can really do, but if she was powerful enough to just kill someone maybe she wouldn’t have involved the cops, or maybe this is a way to hit us where it hurts, if that’s the case the only reason she’d still be alive is to have leverage over Hector [/i] He was prepared for many things but shape shifters, and Rita Salzaras vanishing into thin air as well as all the drugs being gone, and police getting drawn into it was not one of them. It was a tense mexican stand off and it seemed his men the Salzaras and the Nova Consolidated security detail was looking to him for answers. “Fuck, your going to jail too!” “She will not go to jail! You sick bastard, stop trying to play with her head, you sick fucks” Bill yelled out gun raised on Estabon. The Sirens blaring louder, as four squad cars raced into the parking lot. “Alright, Estabon if you make it out, I slipped a piece of paper in your pocket when I took Rita. Hector’s time is over, and I know how dearly you want an exit plan. I will take control of the Salzaras empire, I could use a man with your skills, and I’ll pay you 5x what Hector pays.” “POLICE!! STAND DOWN!!! STAND DOWN!!” Police officers were yelling as they emerged from their cars, and more sirens were blaring. “LET THE WOMAN GO! You are all UNDER ARREST!!!!!!!” Adora smiled, and looked at scene she made. While some people had fled, some had stayed to record the situation. Estabon with his gun drawn, The Nova Consolidated security guards & Salzaras cartel members looking tense, Bill & his fiancee Jared with weapons drawn, and now the police had arrived. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8-sMJZTYf0 “I appreciate the audience, but it’s time for everyone to die.” Adora laughed and suddenly she grew to gigantic heights still in Rita’s form. Estabon stepped back in fear dropping his weapon, and the people who didn’t want to leave all began heading towards the cops. Pulling out a gun she opened fire at the police officers. Giant bullets soared down tearing through the squad cars, and tearing through police officers body. “EVERYONE WILL DIE!” She laughed as the scene erupted into one of chaos after she fired the giant bullets, and she opened fire on the pedestrians fleeing from the rest stop bullets tearing through the cops and lodging their way into the ground blocking the exit. Both the Nova Consolidted security,and Salzaras members opened fire on the giant woman while Adora dropped her gun letting it crush two Nova consolidated trucks and the men stil inside them. “Fuck!” Estabon had took off running, seeing the exit blocked by a giant bullet he was running towards the entrance from the highway. When suddenly a giant shoe slammed into the ground in-front of him causing a shockwave that knocked him back. “Oh so now you want to flee Estabooooon, I could squish you like a bug, all that tough talk but the offer still stands.” Adora smirked at the frightened cartel security member and with a light tap from her foot sent him reeling in the air until he slammed into a parked car. “I fucking hate bugs!!!” Yelling out she raised her foot and began stomping on the nova consolidated trucks, Nova security guards fleeing, Cartel members fleeing, and pedestrians. Police cars zoomed into the rest stop area examining the bloody carnage, while Adora leaned down grabbing the pick up truck as Bill had hopped in with Jared who was flooring it towards the entrance. “I thought you wanted to save me? Your leaving without me? Departure so soon.” Lifting the car up and rising back she flung the car into the nearby high way traffic. Laughing as Bill & Jared screamed until their catapulted truck slammed into an 18 wheeler causing it to flip causing an eight car pile up on the highway people screaming, and cars racing by seeing the giant women causing a rampage at the nearby rest stop. “We’re all going to die...it’s over.” Estabon was in intense pain bleeding from being thrown into the back of a car, looking up at the giant Adora in Rita’s form destroying everything around him. He could see his mangled men, and destroyed trucks. Struggling he managed to rise up shattered glass around him from the impact, some lodged into his back. Adora kicked the rest stop building tearing through the structure then stepped on it several times killing those unlucky enough to still be inside. Leaning down again she brought both her fists down crushing the remaining trucks, and cartel & security guards who’d survived thus far aside from Estabon who was limping to the forest in pain. Sirens were blaring, and the whirring of helicopter choppers was nearby. “Fools, they should all be running, Hector...you’ve made an enemy that’s too powerful.” “Pathetic puny cops.” She spit at the cops, the giant wad of spit slamming into three police SUV’s pulling up, the pressure of the spit flipping the police SUV cruisers up, shattering the windows on impact and Adora slammed her foot down on the entrance to the rest stop destroying it. “Damn it Hector…”Estabon stumbled forward dropping his weapon but seeing no need for it as he stepped onto the grass and fell to the ground in immense pain from being kicked. His heart was racing and his eyes widened as he saw Adora bring her foot down destroying the rest area. [i] At this size her spit can flip vehicles...we’re all going to die…[/i] He was still in disbelief that Adora had let him alive, and wondered why. Maybe taking on Rita’s form caused her to have some mercy, perhaps she really wanted him. “Oooh the news, and the police, eenie meenie minie moe, catch a chopper by its toe.” Looking at the two news helicopters, and one police chapter she clapped her hands over one of the police chopppers crushing it in mid air, debris raining. She snatched the rotator blades off the police chopper and watched as it whirled to the side crashing onto the highway, increasing the destructive scene. The last news chopper had turned around, the camera man screaming, as Adora stepped over towards the chopper, lightly blowing causing the chopper to spin out of control before inhaling the chopper and crushing it chewing it up and gulping it down. “She’s not human at all, even at the size she shouldn’t be able to literally chew up a helicopter….” [i] I’m on the wrong side[/i] Estabon’s final thoughts as he passed out. Adora turned her attention to the chaos on the highway and stepped forward her shoe crushing several cars. Stepping over she stepped on the other side of the highway crushing several cars, and she kicked into the highway causing asphalt and debris to come uip taking down other cars. Without warning she vanished into thin air, and just like that the rampaging monster was gone, leaving behind several dead bodies, death & destruction all while still looking like Rita Salzaras.
