ACE'S POV

I wrapped my arms around Viv and pulled her closer. I couldn't sleep after her decision to join her father. I have to pull myself together. I'm acting like her boyfriend.

I'm not her boyfriend. She can make any decision she wants but why did she have to choose the one which involved her joining her father? After all I still care about her a bit even tho we are not friends anymore.

"I have to go before Ethan wakes up." She mumbled in her sleep. "Okay," I said turning around. I glanced at her, she was staring at the ceiling lost in some thought.

"What is it?" I asked. "I'm scared. He killed Finn in front of me. I don't know what he will do to me." She said as a tear slipped down her eye.

"Then don't join him."I said moving closer. "Believe me Ace. I really have no choice In this. We have nothing we can use against him."

"There is a way." I declared. "We can hijack his ammo. There is a way." I said.

"How?" She asked. " I have a man on ports. He told me that on every 3rd Friday of a month around 4 in the morning two large containers arrive. Luckily I have someone inside who knows that there are shit tons of ammo. And if we manage to take out even one of the containers they will be out of ammo in max 5-6 days. Then we can ambush them easily." I said.

"Okay, we try it then. What have I got to lose?!" She mumbled the last bit. "I was hoping you say that 'cause I was going to do it anyway," I said.

She rolled her eyes. "I better go check up on Ethan." She declared and walked outside the room leaving me to think what would happen if this plan didn't work.

*•••••••••*
Viv left in an hour after Ethan woke up. We only have a day to plan how to execute this plan. I really want this to work because it finally feels like me and Viv are on talking terms and I don't want to lose that again. Suddenly my phone rings. It was Viv.

"Yeah?" I picked up careful not to sound rude. "What's the Plan?" She asked. " I'm working on it," I mumbled.

"Maybe we can distract the security and you can send someone to deal with the trucks."She said. "And we have to deal with this outside the port. It will be easy for us to learn their position then we can surround them, and trap them or something."

"But we have to make sure they don't call Silas before that. We have to be prepared for all the possibilities." I added.

"Yes."

"Okay. Come over. I will call Max and Wyatt and we come up with a proper plan." I suggested. "Hmm. Okay." She sounded unsure and hung up.

I will never be able to get her to believe in this plan completely because she gave up. She knows at last all the odds are in Silas's favour and we can do nothing about it.

Even this plan is a long shot. And I know there is a 99% chance it won't work but I'm willing to bet on that 1% if it makes sure that Viv is safe and doesn't have to join her father.

I wish It was that easy to just March up to his safehouse and point a gun to his head until he surrenders but with the support he has from Orson and his Russian powerful wife this plan is out of option. I wish there was more I could do. Even after having this huge empire and so much power, I'm feeling powerless right now.

*•••••••*

Around 3 in the afternoon, everyone arrived. Everyone have their input and after a very long decision, we finally decided on a plan. The odds were better than the other strategies but still not enough.

But I have to try. I'm not losing Viv without trying.
