Charles took a minute to gather his thoughts before replying to everyone listening.

"Grandma, go ahead execute the plan you had for Steph, Maddy, Juri, Yvonne and Joanne. Taking control of that underground control centre is key for us. Not only will we have control of the underground network they have established here in Townsville, we will also know where they have branched out to."

"Mason, Ivy and Victoria are at the abandoned building right now setting up the trap, hopefully for Pamela. Chloe, you and I will have to fly over to help them finish up. Time is of the essence so more hands on deck will complete the task there."

"Brother Derek, you, Jim and Ivy stay with the advance party and set up our equipment. The sooner we can get full surveillance here, the better." said Charles.

"Charles, allow me to interject." said Peter. "I'm not sure what plans you have for the rest of us; but due recent circumstances while you and your team flew to Paris have resulted in me having to make

    "Chief, with you permission, I wish to take one of these bank notes over to Nathan. Given his military and forensic background, he should be able to deduce whether the notes are real or not." said Captain Walter. "It's too late for that. With all those unruly gangsters out of our premises, we have to contact Nathan and Mr. Quinton and update them immediately. Who knows what will happen if they cross paths." replied Chief Martin. "Oh, you'll find out soon enough, Chief Martin." said Pamela. It turns out, there were pinhole cameras and bug mics planted within the seams of the briefcases. Before, Penuel placed one of the briefcases on Chief Martin's desk, positioning it so that the camera was facing him. Pamela herself was watching from her main headquarters in Paris. Observing from her underground control center, she then contacted Penuel, "How are things going over there, Penuel?" asked Pamela. "Everyone is out, Lady Boss. We are ready for the next phase." replied Penuel. "Wait for

    Madison, Juri, Steph, Yvonne and Joanne made their way to the simulation room, where Madam Louise organized them to take up five different stations in the room. Shortly after, she activated the unmanned robots and connected the robots to their respective stations."Ok, girls. We have heard where the enemy is heading off to. I have everyone else in Townsville on the line right now. I'll need two of you to head to Quinton Tower, while the rest split the remaining three locations among yourselves." instructed Madam Louise. "I'll take QC Enterprise. I have a score to settle with Linda." said Yvonne. "Quinton Hotel is mine. No one messes with my family." said a determined Steph. "Maddy and I will head to Quinton Tower. They are going to need all the firepower they can get. Plus, Ms. Amanda is heading back there with Desmond and Jocelyn." said Juri. "So, that leaves me with stopping Penuel from escaping to Paris. Seems like this guy is a high-ranking officer in Pamela's gang. Taking him

    Heading towards the front entrance and back entrance of Quinton Tower, Elliot, Harold and Cameron lead their squads of henchmen, ready to destroy Quinton Tower and everyone defending it. Desmond was standing behind the door of the front entrance watching Harold and Cameron walking arrogantly towards him. At the back entrance, Elliot thought they could sneak by that entrance to infiltrate Quinton Tower; but when they were at a distance from the back entrance and they saw Keith and his squad waiting for them, they paused and reaccessed their situation. "Judith, we got a problem. We are nearing the back entrance of Quinton Tower; but we have a reception party waiting for us at the back entrance." reported Elliot. "What?!? How is that possible?" asked a shocked Judith. "You tell me, Judith. I thought you said the back entrace was clear." replied Elliot. "Alright, alright. Let's regroup. Elliot, you and your men regroup at the front entrance with Harold and Cameron. We'll force our way

    As Desmond waited nervously in Derek's private lift that led to his office, his mind was constantly racing, fearing for the worst that something might have happened to his wife Jocelyn, as well as Amanda. 'Damn, for once I wish this lift can go faster.' thought Desmond. Ten seconds later, the lift arrived at Derek's office level. "Finally... it's about time." muttered Desmond as the lift doors began to open. When Desmond entered Derek's office, however, he noticed that Derek's office was empty. He was puzzled. Where could Amanda and Jocelyn have gone to amidst the chaos at the ground floor of Quinton Tower? "Jocelyn! Amanda! Where are you?" Desmond called out. "It's me, Desmond. No one else is here. You're safe." Desmond called out again. "Desmond!!" Jocelyn's called out of the shower room of Derek's office. Turning his attention to the sound of Jocelyn's voice, Jocelyn and Amanda rushed out to meet Desmond, who was standing near Derek's desk. "Oh, thank goodness you both are saf

    "Dr. Crestwell, what's the situation at home?" asked a concerned Wayne. He and Kimberly were at QC Enterprise anticipating the imminent attack from Linda and her crew. "Don't you worry about us, Wayne. Tiffany, Terrence and Dylan are with us under our care. Jensen and Patricia are here with us as well. I'm treating Holly's wounds as we speak. You just make sure you and Kimberly make it back safe. I just got word from Desmond that Quinton Tower is secure." replied Dr. Crestwell. "Understood, Dr. Crestwell. Thank you for your assistance. We will make it back home safely. I promise." said Wayne and hung up, rejoining his wife in his office, keeping a lookout for the enemy. A van soon pulled up at the front entrace of QC Enterprise building. Out walked Nathan and a few of Keith's security from the van. They took out the equipment previously packed in the van, making sure there was nothing left inside the van before making their way into Wayne's office. "Thanks for coming down to assis

    Just then, motor systems could be heard from the QC Enterprise building. QC Enterprises's electric systems were running again. All four of them could just laugh exasperately at the timing. Yvonne's unmanned robot, which was affected by the prior EMP shockwave, started to function again. "Hey Yvonne, can you hear us?" asked Wayne. "We hear you, Wayne. Yvonne told me about what happened. What's the situation over there?" asked Madam Louise with Yvonne at her side. "Everything is good here. QC Enterprise is safe, thanks to a couple of friends." replied Wayne, looking at Eric and Angela with gratitude. "Yvonne, your robot is functioning again." "Thanks, Wayne. I'll fly it back to the Phoenix Bunker for repairs and upgrades. You guys might want to help the rest." said Yvonne. "On second thought..." Madam Louise interjected. "Wayne, Kimberly, head over to Townsville Hospital. Amanda and Jocelyn are being observed there for injuries. Desmond is at the waiting room. Go to them. They need

    "I'm looking at a group of people heading towards the entrance of the Hotel on foot. From up here, it looks like they are coming in from all directions." reported Nick. "How many directions specifically, Nick?" asked Raymond. "Four of them, dad. They are blocking the roads that lead to the hotel." replied Nick. "Damn, they are closing in fast." said Angela as she peeked out of the entrance of SB Cafe. "Ok, listen carefully. Nick, you are our sniper. Stay up there and take them out one at a time. Be careful not to let them spot you." instructed Owen. "The rest of us have to split up in various locations. We know the roads that lead to the hotel, since there are four entrances to the hotel. So here's the plan. Eric, Dave, Raymond and I will split up to guard the hotel entrances." "Monica, Angela, Lois and Pam, you're our spies. Each one find an unoccupied room about five levels up. Look out for their movement and update us in real time." said Owen. "Ok, let's not waste time. Let's

    "Everyone, move out!" ordered Owen. "Roger that, Uncle Owen! Quinton Phoenices! Let's fly!" replied Steph. She, Madison, Juri and Joanne flew their robots directly to face Penuel and his crew flying the fleet of combat helicopters. "Quinton Phoenices?? Really? How many more team names do we need?" said Nick exasperately. "Hey Nick!! Focus up! We need your bird's eyes!" Raymond's lashing brought Nick back to focus. "Sorry, dad! I got distracted!" replied Nick. He then resumed his position and continued taking out Gary's forces from the top of Quinton Hotel. Gary did not relent. His forces continued to hurl molotov cocktails towards the nanoshield walls surrounding the entrances of Quinton Hotel, in the hopes that one of those cocktails would break through the nanoshield barrier. "Boss, this is futile. We need another plan of attack." said one of Gary's henchmen. "You're right; but what can we do?" pondered Gary. He then looked up to the top of Quinton Hotel, where he spotted Nick st

    The cameras were flashing as journalists and reporters gathered at the eagerly anticipated launch of the new mall in Townsville, specifically located near the Townsville Hillside Condo. Standing in front of the main entrance, Desmond and Jocelyn faced the crowd. Desmond then took the mic to address the crowd, "After months of construction, through reported ups and downs, we are happy to announce, on behalf of the Quinton Consortium, the officially opening of Townsville Hillside Mall." said Desmond. He then took his side next to Jocelyn and proceeded to perform the cutting of the ribbon, signalling that the Townsville Hillside Mall was officially opened. Applause rang all around the front as Desmond and Jocelyn opened the front entrance doors, welcoming the crowd into the mall. In another corner of Townsville, Wayne and Kimberly were also dressed sharply; but for a different reason. Joining them were Roland and Elaine Russo, as all four of them stood in front of the main entrance t

    "Brother Derek, are you sure about this?" asked Charles as he looked at himself in the mirror. He was wearing a tuxedo; but not any ordinary tuxedo. Derek had Charles wear his diamond encrusted tuxedo, the most expensive tuxedo he bought from Nick Lopez when he first found out he was a Quinton. "I'm sure about it, Charles. I know I bought it for me initially; but in all honesty, you wearing this tux means so much more." Derek reassured Charles. "Man, I'm nervous. Brother, how did you even go through your wedding with Ms. Amanda?" asked Charles exasperately. "Desmond told me to take a deep breath to calm my nerves. It could work for you, too." replied Derek. Charles decided to take Derek's advice and took two deep breaths. Surprisingly, he felt much calmer. Then he and Derek heard a knock on the door. In walked Mason, "Brother, are you ready?" asked Mason. "As ready as I'll ever be." replied Charles. All three of them then walked upstairs... to the top deck of Charles's superyach

    The prison gate key entered the lock. With a click, the warden opened the cell gate, with mixed emotions. "Madam Louise... it's time." In her cell, Madam Louise looked around the jail cell she had been living in, serving her time for her past wrongs. She thought about the time she spent in the cell, forming a close friendship with the warden, being released early to help Team Quinton and the Phoenix Mafia, eventually being a key player in the fight against Pamela. It was a sad day to leave her family after the fight ended; but heading back to prison was necessary. Thanks to Lea Quinton, however, she did not have to stay in prison any longer. She received a pardon from the Mayor of Townsville; and now, she can leave the Townsville prison freely. She slowly stood up and walked towards the cell door, where she noticed her warden friend had a tear in his eye. Smiling slightly, she wiped the tear away from his eye. "No need to weep for me, young man. We will meet again, outside of t

    With the mask worn on his face; and the briefcase full of cash repacked into a duffel bag found in the control room, Charles slung the bag over his shoulder, ready to move out of Pamela's HQ. Before heading out, Charles made sure to surround himself in a nanoshield sphere to avoid any sudden sneak attacks. After which, Charles used his upgraded suit to do a thorough scan, looking to devise an alternate way out of Pamela's HQ. 'Hmmm... it looks like I'm going to have to blast my way out of here. Time to check out what weapons are at my disposal.' Charles thought to himself. Scanning the system in his suit through his mask, Charles was surprised to find various forms of weaponry to pave his way out. "Well then, let's get started." Charles said to himself. However, as we was about to step out of Pamela's control room, an alarm sounded inside of the control room. Red emergency lights were flickering in the control room. Charles turned his direction to one of the screens in the control

    "Gerard! Andrea! You certainly have some guts showing your faces here after you betrayed me!" Pamela sneered at the couple. "Lady Boss... wait! We did not betray you." Gerard defended himself. "That's right, Lady Boss! The hostages... they escaped!!" shouted Andrea. "WHAT?!?!?" Pamela shouted angrily. She then turned her attention to Charles, who was standing there, perplexed. "Charles!! You were at the dungeon earlier. You said you saw your team in their cells. Is that true?!?" Pamela asked authoritatively. "Absolutely, Lady Boss. I personally locked up the dungeon after making sure that loser Derek was in his cell." replied Charles. "He's lying, Lady Boss. Charles must still be working with his friends. Somehow, they managed to get their suits from the lab and escape from this place." Gerard said accusingly, pointing at Charles at the same time. "Hold on there, Gerard. Up until just now, when Lady Boss showed me her lab, I did not even know that existed." Charles defended hims

    "You tell me, Charles. How did you and that loser escape in the first place?" Pamela asked suspiciously. Charles was calm in his answer, "Well, I found a couple of metal pins in my cell and I used it to pick my cell lock." Charles began. "Once I got free, that's where I hatched my plan. I picked the lock of Derek's cell. I had to convince him that he and I were on the same team in taking you out. So, while the rest were in their cells, which, by the way, they still are, Derek and I made our way out of the dungeon." explained Charles. "Well, you certainly have some talent, unlike that loser. Still, Gerard and Andrea not reporting back is concerning for me." replied Pamela. As she looked at the monitors of the control room, she noticed something peculiar, then she started frowning. "What's wrong, Lady Boss?" asked Charles. "Take a look at that." said Pamela, pointing Charles's attention to one of the monitors surveying the lab. "What about it, Lady Boss?" asked Charles curiously. "C

    Before Charles could answer, they heard footsteps approaching the dungeon. Derek passed Gerard's dungeon keys to Charles before he cloaked himself again. In order to play along with Pamela's ploy, Charles quickly opened the dungeon door, placed Victoria gently inside before locking the door again. The footsteps grew audibly closer towards the dungeon door. Charles turned his attention towards the sound of those footsteps and walked in that direction, taking caution to who he might run into. As he turned around the corner, he found out who those footsteps belong to. "Oh my gosh, Esther. What are you doing here?" Charles exclaimed softly as he embraced his girlfriend. "Wait, you shouldn't be here. Didn't Mr. Quinton give you and the rest the order to head to the safehouse?" asked Charles. "I had to come here. I was not going to let that b***h Pamela take you." replied Esther emotionally. Just then, Derek decloaked himself and met up with Charles and Esther. "Esther, so it was you. G

    "Ok, Charles, the feed is on." said Pamela. "Take your position, on Derek's right side." "Understood, Lady Boss." replied Charles. Seconds later, everyone, including the people in the Phoenix Bunker, the safehouse and the combined invasion and rescue team saw the live feed on their screens. "Your eyes do not deceive you, Peter. Charles has betrayed you. He has decided to join a real mafia and I will nurture him properly, so he can be a real Don." began Pamela. "As you can see, I have your son as hostage. If you ever want to see Derek again, in one piece and alive, firstly, call off your attack dogs. Secondly, you will, and I mean WILL, surrender your precious Quinton Consortium to me. Oh, before I forget, that includes your so-called Phoenix Mafia as well." "And just in case you think I'm not being serious... " Pamela then did something no one expected. She pressed a button on her control panel; and in the next moment, Ivy's suit emerged from a corner of her control room. 'What th
