The target two was Elena Rostova. Luca's team arrived in the Brooklyn warehouse district, and it went badly.
Rostova was waiting armed and prepared for confrontation. There were brutal shootouts in close quarters.
Luca's people were good, but Rostova's were better. She was a former KGB officer with decades of experience.
She took out two of his men before they cornered her. She was wounded and bleeding, with no way out. When she went for her weapon the last time, that's when Luca shot her at center mass, leaving no choice.
Elena Rostova died in that warehouse.
That was two down.
The next plan was to proceed strategically to capture the remaining 10. We knew it was going to be tough, but we had our team, and we damn near well knew we were not going down this without a fight.
I assessed our plan and knew we had a lot of work, planning, and strategy to do.
And it was time to prove to them once again that they messed with the wrong bastard.
