“Lower your fucking guns, or I’ll have my guys blow your fucking heads off!” shouts Sal to Dennison.
Dennison looks at Sal and sees that he’s not kidding.
“Without my friends on the inside, you wouldn’t have control of the prison right now,” says Sal to Dennison.
Dennison lowers his handgun, but Alberto keeps his handgun aimed at Winston’s head.
“Lower your gun,” says Dennison to Alberto.
“Not until they do first,” replies Alberto.
“Just do it!” shouts Dennison.
Alberto looks at Dennison and he notices the glare that Dennison is giving him, and Alberto lowers his handgun.
Davis and Winston lower their guns as well and Sal says, “Okay now we can finally start.”
“Dennison, what do you need?” asks Sal.
Dennison looks at everyone in the church and then answers Sal, “We need food. We are running low on food and the guys are starting to get edgy.”
Sal looks at Jacob and asks, “Do you have food and supplies to give Dennison?”
“We have a couple places that we could let them take from,” answers Jacob.
“What about you Davis? Could you contribute anything to Dennison?” asks Sal.
“What would we get in return?” answers Davis.
“What do you want?” asks Dennison.
Davis looks at Dennison and then at Sal and Davis asks, “What are you offering?”
“What can you offer Denni?” asks Sal to Dennison.
“We can provide people, we have a good number of guys that don’t mind getting their hands dirty,” answers Dennison.
“Anything else?” asks Davis.
Sal and Jacob look at Dennison and Alberto.
“My guys do have some skills that can be helpful,” answers Dennison.
“What? Like making license plates?” jokes Winston.
DK chuckles to himself and Dennison looks at DK and shouts, “You think that’s funny cue ball?”
DK just stares at Dennison with an intense expression.
Sal and Jacob look at DK and Sal says, “Thank you for coming Denni and Alberto, we’ll be in touch.”
“That’s it? What about our food and supplies?” shouts Dennison.
“We’ll be in touch, and we’ll let you know what we decide,” answers Sal.
Dennison shakes his head in disgust and anger, and he looks at Sal.
“Escort them out!” shouts Sal.
Three of Sal’s goons come out of the shadows and walk over to Dennison and Alberto.
Dennison looks at Sal and says, “I ain’t gonna forget this.”
“I’ll be in touch,” replies Sal and then Sal motions to his goons to get Dennison and Alberto out of the church.
Two of Sal’s goons grab Dennison and Dennison shouts, “Don’t touch me! We’re going!”
Dennison and Alberto walk towards Davis and Winston and Dennison says with a cocky tone, “Hope to see you soon.”
Davis gives Dennison a half smile and Dennison, Alberto, and three of Sal’s goons walk towards the exit of the church.
“Thanks for nothing Sal!” shouts Dennison as he exits the church with Alberto and Sal’s goons.
“He seems like a nice guy,” jokes Jacob.
Brad looks at DK and then Brad looks at the church tile floor after DK makes eye contact with Brad.
“He could be dangerous,” says Jacob to Sal.
“He could also be an asset if managed well,” replies Sal.
“How so?” asks Davis to Sal.
“There are about 100 prisoners in the jail still. They could be used against our enemies,” answers Sal.
“Like pawns,” whispers Jacob to himself.
“But we can’t have criminals walking freely around Tampa Bay,” says Brad.
Sal looks at Brad and replies, “We probably already do. Who do you think is built for an apocalypse?”
Sal looks at DK and asks, “Anything to add?”
DK looks at Sal and answers, “What’s the point of keeping a bunch of prisoners around? They seem like more mouths to feed and are more trouble than they are worth.” Jacob looks at DK.
“What do you propose we do with them?” asks Sal.
DK feels everyone looking at him and he answers, “I don’t know, but I do know that if they get in my way they’ll be put down without hesitation.”
Jacob smiles at DK and says, “That’s my guy.”
“But the prisoners do look like a threat and we were ordered to neutralize all threats,” says Davis.
“Is that a government order?” asks Jacob to Davis.
Davis and Winston look at Jacob and Davis answers, “It’s the order of our superiors, and yes it comes from the government.”
“I haven’t heard from them in a while, that’s why I was hoping to meet with Wayne today,” replies Jacob.
“We will report back to him and the others about how this meeting went today,” says Winston.
“Are they still in Florida?” asks Jacob.
“Some are, but most are in other states now,” answers Davis.
“What about the rig and the carrier?” asks Jacob.
“You seem to know a lot about things. Who is your contact?” asks Davis to Jacob.
“That’s above you two,” answers Jacob.
The smartwatch on Winston’s right wrist beeps and Winston says to Davis, “We need to get back now.”
“Thank you for the meeting gentlemen, someone from our outfit will be in touch with you, we have to leave now,” says Davis to Jacob and Sal.
“Should we contact you or wait?” asks Jacob.
Davis, while walking towards the exit of the church with Winston, shouts to Jacob, “They’ll contact you on the sat phone.”
DK watches as Davis and Winston exit the church and the large wooden church door closes.
“What the fuck?! Your guy Dennison probably fucked up our chances of getting onto the campus now,” says Jacob to Sal.
“Don’t worry about it. We’ll handle Denni and his crew, and we’ll show those government pricks that we can be trusted,” replies Sal.
“How?” asks Jacob to Sal.
“Trust me, I’ll come up with something,” answers Sal.
DK asks, “What have you come up with so far?”
Sal looks at DK and then Sal looks at Brad.
Brad feels Sal,
