**TRACY SCOTT** After getting wholly drenched by the rain, I reached the car first and got in, Antony followed with a second or two behind.

We were both panting, struggling to catch our breaths, but it's already raining heavily outside.

"What are you doing here? I thought you were going to stay there?"

I pointed a finger towards the driver's seat and nudged my head forward.

He arched his back, chuckling a little and so did I.

"I can just stay here a while then go back there because I'm exhausted."

We shared another laugh. I looked around and the downpour intensified by the second.

"Lock the doors."

I motioned to his side. He locked it and j secured all the windows, reached over for the jacket laying on the chair, tugging to it in search of what to do that'll keep me busy for the duration of this not to mention having to endure having Antony so close and being unable to do a damn thing with him.It's torture with him just sitting there, I can't kiss him.

    **TRACY SCOTT** "You took a phone in here?"That's a dumb question to ask, if he had a phone he would use it to call for help or something, yet I found myself asking."No. I didn't. I didn't even think there was cell service here considering the fact that the gas station I passed before getting here didn't have any. I figured that's how the entire area was. I guess not."He stood straight, slowly approaching the pigeon hole where the sound was coming from.As he opened it, the call ended almost immediately."It's an Android cell."I lifted my head above the seats to catch a peak of the cell phone."It seems as though it belongs to Shawn."He revealed, coming back to the back seat.I moved closer, having to raise my head a little or risk not getting a clear picture of what was happening."Password protected. It's a pin."He announced."Well. We can always do it. One two three four."I narrowed my gaze wondering if he thought Shawn was that stupid.He typed t

    **AGENT MICHAEL**"I do not care the amount of pain I'm in at this moment, if you don't shut up and do exactly what I tell you to, I will find a way to get up from this bed, head over there and slap you so hard you'll fall unconscious again."I threatened, squeezing my eyes further."Be useful and check this entire room for a first aid kit or anything, get me painkillers then after that I want you to go into the bathroom and get a bowl of water so I can try to "wash" my eyes if that's a thing. Hurry because as soon as they come back, they will try to ask questions and we have no clue what's happening. Then it's dead. Dead. Dead. Better step on it."I ordered. That seemed to get him back into gear. I heard his rushed footsteps scattered all over the room, I heard him drag cabinets in search of what I asked.It's too much to check if the door was left open then order him to go outside to see if there are any pain meds. That's too much, right?"Found it!""Holy Christ! Are you trying to

    **AGENT MICHAEL**"You truly don't have a plan? All my bravery amounted to nothing?"I rolled my eyes since I could, it hurt a little but I had control of my eyes with the painkillers serving as it's supposed to."I didn't mean it that way, you can't expect things to just pop out unexpectedly, I will come up with a plan if you'll just give me time.""I recall you saying we didn't have time a few minutes ago, now you need time to think!""Yes. I need time to think."I snapped all too harshly."If I do not think about this carefully, we are going to end up with a huge mess on our hands. We might get shot as soon as we walk out of this place, I need a solid plan so if you would shut up for a second, maybe I can actually think then come up with something!"I raised a palm gritting my teeth in anger."Fine. I would just look around to see if there's anything in the room we can use to escape or aid us on the outside."Finally, He thinks.I breathed and Ethan scowled before standing up.I sh

    **TRACY SCOTT** "Ma'am, I'm unable to hear you clearly due to the poor signal of your current location, but I can understand that you are in danger, could you please keep the line going as we attempt to trace your location with our equipment.""She said, I looked at Antony and he gave an approving nod.That doesn't seem like a normal response to a 911 call.They are dirty. They're also tracking our location meaning they will arrive soon.If they are making use of satellites as Antony predicted, then they will be caught by the F.B.I it would mean the plan hasn't gone up in flames just yet.Terrific."Could you confirm your name and provide any detail that might help us ascertain your current state. Nothing is too small as we'll be able to use anything you provide."She halted waiting for a reply.I cleared my throat within myself preparing to tearup again."I am not certain, but a bomb went off and because of that I got separated, I ran and I got here and

    **DIRECTOR SINGH**"Sir, with all due respect, we are running out of time. If we don't act fast, we won't be left with much of an option."One of the men explained and it hurt to say that he was right. If I don't act quickly, I will lose all my cards at once.The Russian mob will disappear for another decade or more, a Father will lose his only daughter, this agency will lose one of its bestagents and a civilian who just came back from the dead will die again. Only this time it'll be real, there's no coming back"Sir."He pressured. I rubbed my temples considering every angle struggling to figure out the best solution."Alright. I need this place to be silent. Everyone needs to shut the hell up so I can think straight."I raised a hand motioning to all of them.Slowly the bickering and noise died down spreading through the command center.Finally, peace."We have a team of ten down there?"I asked no one in particular, they each took turns to nod their heads in response."I want them

    **AGENT MICHAEL* **Each of us took a moment. A well deserved one since we've all been through shit in the last twenty four hours. Some more than others, I can't place myself above anyone else here but my back hurts like shit.Speaking of which, I popped two more pain killers straight in my throat while Ethan passed me a disapproving look.He can't judge when the pain is like this, I feel as though it's crushing me from inside and I just might crumble due to this pressure.One moment. We exhaled then sprang up.The battle won't finish unless there's a losing side, right now we seem to stay on it but we won't give up. Not until the scales are balanced then move straight to our favor.Until then we'll have the strength to fall flat and close our eyes.The bright side was that three men didn't lose their lives. Women didn't lose their husbands and children to their fathers. That's if not anything tipping the scales.It was meant to bring us down but we venturedthrough.I'm alive and so

They halted on all shooting activities and since we were slightly closer to the wanna-bee door, I could hear the hurried footsteps as they struggled and scrambled around the house searching for a way in which does not involve harming Tracy."I have an idea that might, but I need you to trust me."I placed both palms over each side of her face.At those words, she shoved me again and the rejection stung."Trust? You're crazy. A psychopath even. I will never trust you again, I'll rather take my chances with the Russian mob than trust you withanything, especially something as precious as my life."She ground her teeth harshly, poking a finger in my chest.She's angry. With every damn right.I hurt her.I broke her trust.She's feeling used and drained, she could take all her anger out on me. Just not at this moment.I'll pick an angry Tracy just as long as she's a living angry Tracy.I just need her to sur

    **AGENT MICHAEL**The chopper arrived and extracted us from that location. He looked excited to see me as well.Inside the plane, I could arch my back all the way, rubbing it against the texture of the seat, trying to relieve my body of the unnecessary pain it was in."Are you okay? If you aren't feeling good he could take you to the doctor. You might need a checkup after an explosion like that."Rick advised. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Ethan silently agreeing with that hypothesis."I will see a doctor, but first I'll see this mission through. I need to."I started firmly, grasping the edge of the seat.They couldn't force me to go back."Alright. This is as far as I can take you, you will have to cover the rest on foot. It's a two minute walk from here on out."The pilot yelled over the sound of the airplane.He let us down slowly, each of us jumping down once the plane was low enough."I will be waiting here since this seems like a good extraction point just in case the

    **TRACY SCOTT**. "Where do you want to go?"Jimmy asked, dirverting into the main road.It's a miracle we've even gotten this far without any reporters trying to bash into the car or take pictures. Maybe they don't have vans?I'm almost sure Father would have gotten the news by nowThey've flock around the office begging for a comment or the house.I expected it. In fact I want it.The more influence I have, the more people get to hear the truth.Father can't oppose this even. That man killed his wife. He took me for days and now they're going to just let him go.Well I'll be dammed.Just like clockwork, my cell began ringing.Lucky guess it's Ethan. He's calling to rant aboutIt'll be rude not to answer, plus I'm not ashamed of what I've done I'll repeat it if necessary."What is it?"I snapped. From the corner, Jimmy's brows shot up."I just wanted to say congratulations. I'm happy you're going to do something that n

    **TRACY SCOTT**. Murmurs. Bickering. Incessant sounds that's currently irking. Echoing in my ear and makes me want to scream. Maybe they'll shut up.More reporters are gathering since I've gotten what I wanted. For this to air live. For the entire world to hear me.For the whole world to see and understand my plague. To know why I went through and decide for themselves if what's going to happen is the right thing. It's not. They know it. It's why they'll stand up and stop it. I hope."Everyone is eager to understand what I'm about to say. I'll tell you and since this is live, there won't be any miscommunication."My eyes went above their heads as the teachers would advise us while we gave our speeches. I wished I hadn't done that though.For the side entrance, I noticed Antony burst out with Ethan behind him.Perfect. I had all the media attention, they weren't affected by two men.I turned away. Antony's eyes move

    TRACY SCOTT**. Jimmy loves me. I should not be considering that with everything that's happening and all that's at stake, but in some weird way I can't help the tingles all around me with the realization that Jimmy loves me.He's actually in love with me. I know that because what we about to do is similar to jumping off a cliff with no safety on, he's willing to do that.I think he is. Maybe he'll just walk me up to it, tell me what to do then leave me hanging.He'll remain neutral in the dealings and I'll face the music myself.I would not blame him. It's typically the smart thing to do.Ethan. Antony. They should all stay away from me. The best thing to do is taking it all head on.In fact involving anyone else will just make matters worse.I'm the center piece of everything.It started with me. It should end with me."Are you reconsidering it? I won't lie to you, it'spolitical suicide, that what we would call it

    **TRACY SCOTT**. "How about here, it says foreign nationals who have committed a crime...""We can't use that, they'll argue that he didn't actual commit the crime.""That would make no sense?"I cringed my nose in utter confusion."In theory, it would not but if they did that, they'll make a center piece of the American justice system, they'll bring it out on the open for anyone interested to ask as many questions as they'd like and trust me, there are some many people interested in the system.""Ugh."I fell on the chair, tossing the books aside."Maybe we take a five minutes break..."He was interrupted by my cell phone."I'm sorry, I should get this."I slipped my hand into my pocket silently praying it wasn't my father or Antony, in that case I won't have to get anything.It wasn't. Ethan was calling. From the burner. How nice."Yes?"I answered. No filter needed. I didn't want to talk to any of them from that p

    153**TRACY SCOTT**. "Tracy wait! I'm confused because it's as though both of you just shut me out in an instant. What is going on here? One minute I think maybe in actually part of the team or whatever shit and the next you're gone with him, you disappear for almost half an hour. What happened?"I held my purse, twirling in the free space outside."Get rid of the substance in your car, we do not want anyone getting a whiff of what that thing might be. It won't do anyone good."I instructed instead of answering the question."Tracy. you're just avoiding the question and I thought you would not be mad for telling Antony.""I'm not mad. Come on, do I seem mad? If I dol apologise for giving you the wrong impression, I am not."I giggled, palming my lips to stiffen it when it got too weird."I'm sorry we didn't take you in with us. I only got ten minutes and somehow you were lost in between, it wasn't my intention."His

    152**TRACY SCOTT**. You're weak. You're fragile. That's what they think. That's what they'll never say to your face, but it's the reason they pet you in believing things which aren't actually true.They're all liars. They've been lying to you for the longest time. That is the truth. You can't trust any of them.Those are Antonov's words from earlier today replaying in my head like a broken record.When he dropped the last bombshell, the concluding piece of the puzzle in my head, the little secret Antony was keeping, I grew numb while seating on that chair.I kept my hands folded, staring into space.My head was faced forward, probably making eye contact of some sort with him, but I was not there physically.My mind had wandered off, making up the scenes in my head.How it happened. Who she was. Why he did it.I created an answer for each of those questions after which more would just pop up. That's howmy mind work

    **TRACY SCOTT**. I need a grip. A tight grip and maybe a lid. A grip on these whirling emotions inside me, like a storm and I'm in the fucking eye.An hour ago I was prepared, willing, and heaven knows I was ready to commit first-degree murder and not even blink.That's how mad I was. Was it anger? Or hurt? Or thirst for vergence? That would be fueled by either the former or latter before it?I'm not sure what it is, but it's there.I can feel it inside of it, it's burning and it keeps increasing with each passing minute.I would have killed that man, I would have done so without so much as blinking.That's how vicious I have become.Ethan was the only anchor left, if it wasn't for him I would have finished Antonov off.For now, I just need to stay in the same room with him.I need to look him in the eye and figure out why he ruined my life.Why did he kill my mother?Why did he start this goose chase for me decades

    **ANTONY SANTOS**. "Why are you looking at me like that?"She asked after moments of silence reigned between us, neither bothering to utter a word. There weren't much seating positions in the gun range, so we merely relaxed our back over the wall, giving the other breathing space.Something I hadn't realised I needed, but I did."Like what?"I moved my shoulders, carefully flipping my front hair backwards and moving my eyes away which were raking her body with suspicion."Like I'm damaged goods. You're looking at me as though I'm damaged goods. It's what's going around and I can't seem to wrap my head around the look. It's getting annoying. Stop looking at me like that "She snapped, standing straight."I'm not looking at you like you're damaged goods. I would never think that, that's just being insensitive and anyone who is doing such hasn't the slightest clue of what you've been through nor has the right to judge

    **ETHAN RAMIREZ**I searched the room with my eyes, it had cleared out leaving just us three. Antony and I standing metres away from one of the ranges, Tracy standing by the door with a smug look on her face that shows she's not exactly happy with either of us.What comes next is her feeling all too betrayed by both of us, but I'm sure Antony can handle it.I hope. I hope I didn't underestimate her angry she is at him, angry enough not to listen to a word he had to say, she has only made eye contact with him once since she walked in here and even then, she tore her gaze away quickly."I asked a question but it would seem no one is willing to give a weird answer. Since when did both of you become besties because that's what this seems. A get together for besties."She squirmed her shoulders, her tone dripping with sarcasm and mockery."Tracy..."She crossed her hand quickly, leaving one outside to place ahead of me and halt whatevermovement I had planned"I asked a question, Ethan.
