Author: Treasure E. Blue
intelligence on them for the past few weeks. The more she watched their mistakes, their weakness and flaws, the more she believed she could pull it off – rob the main stash spot. She knew the rules of Baltimore.
Baltimore was a city where a murder took place nearly every day because too many of the wrong people had guns. A drug deal gone wrong, a perceived act of disrespect, a dirty look….. Anybody could get it. Most of the crime was drug related. Drug gangs killed off people who competed with them. But that didn’t deter her. It actually turned her on even more. In a city of 645,000, Baltimore had as many as 60,000 drug addicts, with as many as 48,000 of them hooked on heroin. More than enough money to go around, and Rain, though only pre-teen, knew even then that she had to have it. After gaining a microcosm working knowledge of the level drug hustle, she determined this logic, “ Why waste time hustling and stacking money when you could wait for another man to do it for you…and then rob them? ”
By nature, Rain ’s personality was very secretive and guarded. No one could ever tell what she was thinking or feeling; happy, sad or angry. This was the very reason people stayed clear of her and was respected by children and adults alike. After finally coming up with a workable plan, she went to the one person she trusted the most, her brother Dayvid.
Dayvid was huge for the average boy his age, most of his life and was a natural born earner and child entrepreneur. His first business was a paper delivery boy in his neighborhood and made a killing because he had a monopoly on it. He was the only deliverer. It was that way because he got up way earlier than the competition and out hustled them.
Only a year later, same occupation, different neighborhood, instead of wasting time delivering papers, he simply waited and extorted each paperboy for half their take. He was now the bully. Rain watched her twin brother Dayvid change before her eyes from a fairly mild mannered little boy, whose only two fascinations in life were video games and earning money, to a tenacious beast who just took other people’s money to buy the video games. By hook or crook, they both simply had to have it; they were one in the same. Once she told her brother about her intentions and plan… he didn’t even bat an eye, he was in!
* * *
It took them 3 days of kicking around ideas until they finally came up with a plan they both agreed upon was the best approach, but it required outside players to pull it off. Because of the countless hours Rain spent on reconnaissance and surveillance, she determined, as in history, the best way to catch a man slipping… pussy.
From Kings of Africa, to the kingpins of Baltimore, pussy was the single most reason that led to the death and the downfall of even the hardest men. This fact, Rain and Dayvid would capitalize on, and knew someone perfect for the job.
CHAPTER 5
The two m ain crews on Edmondson Street were simply named after their product or color of the top or tape, which sealed their product. Up the block and everything on the corner was run by Lil Dot and his crew who pumped yellow tops.
Lil Dot , only 19 years old, born and breed in Baltimore with a huge Napoleon complex— a personality complex that consists of power trips and false machismo to make up for short height and feelings of inferiority. He ran the spot and had one of the hottest drug locations in all of Baltimore, simply because it was virtually impossible for the police to get the upper hand on them because the easy access getaways of alleys, abandoned units, and the one way in. He had spotters on every roof.
Lil Dot’s crew consisted of boys his age or younger, who were all reckless and dangerous. Lil Dot had a terrible mean streak and was known to bust his gun for even the slightest infraction he deemed disrespect and had the
