Cedes looked down at Jessica shaking. "Either way I'm going to die Natalia. Even if I do exactly as he says and give him the chip he'll kill me," she looked down shaking. "You can't be in here get to your room and keep Jessica with you. If he finds you in here tomorrow he'll kill us all." She was going to think of a plan and if she had to sacrifice herself to save them then she would. She wasn't going to hesitate at all she has to do what's right. She looked down shaking slightly looking up at Seb. "Try to get some sleep." She whispered to him.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Nat knew she was right so she nodded. She took Jessica and walked out of the door. She went up to her room and put Jessica in the place she had been sleeping earlier. Nat curled up in a ball on top of her blankets, she had tried to keep it together but now that she was alone her body was wracked with sobs. Eventually she fell asleep from pure exhaustion.

Seb looked at her and shook his head, "It doesn't matter," his voice was almost as hopeless as Natalia's "If what she said was true. Nothing will matter at all." His words were blunt and filled with weariness. He was ready for this to be over.

Mercedes nodded looking down she tried to sleep her body hurt so bad she'd be forced into the FBI's headquarters in a weak way. "Whatever happens tomorrow if Cormac get's away with this and I'm killed, but you survive with Nat please take Jessica. She's gone through enough and I don't' want to see her suffer anymore." She whispered even if they might now survive at all she wanted him to promise her that. She didn't want to lose her family and was sure that she would lose Jessica.

Cormac woke early in the morning and gathering everyone up for the mission when it was time Mercedes was already cuffed and gagged in the van she was weak but Cormac didn't care she has to do this.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia's eyes were still red and slightly puffy but she had her regular act back up. She was the cold blooded girl that would do anything for Cormac once again. She didn't act like anything was wrong, she hoped that Cormac didn't notice her eyes, though she wasn't sure he'd notice anything but himself at this point. She was dressed in her regular black tank top and black jeans with her hair slicked back into the perfect pony tail. She was perfect.

Sebastian nodded and drifted of to sleep. When Cormac gathered them he was still half asleep, he looked like crap. He looked around for Natalia and saw her, her walls were back up and she was a trained killer again. Seb however looked defeated and he wasn't trying to hide it. He didn't care what Cormac thought anymore.

Cormac looked up when his insurance came the ones that had turned him into this. He smirked and then went over to Mercedes. "You go in there you get me that chip it'd that simple. I know you can walk if you do t do as I say this time you'll loose more then your legs." He said to her. She didn't even answer she didn't care she just wanted this to be done first. He went over to Natalia and Seb. "You two will go In there with her. When she gets the chip come out with her and that's it. If you have to be rough to get what you want then fine but do it. Take the car that she's in. I'll watch the brat." He said talking about Jessica.

Mercedes didn't know who Cormac used for any insurance but when she saw the top three killers in the World she wanted to be dead. They were all killers no hesitation and she was sure this wouldn't end well with them. She listened to his orders hut didn't care anymore about his threats she just wanted to get this done.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia nodded her eyes were narrowed. Nothing about this job could go well. She know that she would most likely be dead when she came back. Natalia climbed into the driver's seat of the car, she saw that Mercedes was tied in the back. As soon as Seb climbed into the car Nat started driving. As soon as they were out of the way of HQ she muted her ear piece that Cormac was using to get directions. "Sebastian, you are going to be the one who escapes," her voice was empty, Cormac had a tracker implanted into her arm the day she came to live with him. For some reason he didn't do that to Seb. "You are going to have to take Jessica,"

Seb didn't respond to Cormac, but he followed Natalia, getting into the passenger's side of the car. As soon as they were out of reach he muted his ear piece too. His eyes widened as Natalia talked, Nat sounded like she was resigned to her fate, "We are all going to get out of here," he said, though there was no confidence behind his voice. He looked out the window as they drove. He had no idea what they were walking into.

"Just don't struggle if they try to grab you. Trust me it'll make things worse if you do." She had a plan inn her head they had to follow it precisely in order to do what they have to do. She looked down shaking slightly thinking of the consequences. She had a feeling Natalia had a tracker on her she won't have to worry about it. Mercedes knew what to do it was stupid but it could help them escape.


message 608: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia kept her eyes forward on the road. She unmuted the com and listened to Cormac still barking instructions. She started to tune out the other two in the car. It was the thing she did when she was scared. She did it back when her parents were killed and she was doing it now. Nat kept one hand on the steering wheel and the other was gently massaging the place where she knew the tracker to be. Natalia pulled into an alley about a block from where they were supposed to be. "We are here," she said looking back at Mercedes then over to Sebastian.

Seb looked back to Mercedes, "What are we going to do?" he asked her. He knew there was no use in trying to talk to Natalia, she was in her own head. So he was talking to Mercedes. "What are we going to do when we get there? We can't hand the chip over to Cormac, that would be suicide."

"Once we get in there if they grab us they're trying to help us. We won't hand that chip over to Cormac trust me you'll feel healed instead after they grab us." She saw the building. "Just don't fight back." She trying to ignore Cormac as best as she can. She took a deep breath ready to get out she was shaking slightly though she was too weak she knew Seb was hurting too but not for long.

"Get in there!" Cormac kept barking he wasn't hearing Mercedes nor did he care about what she was talking about. "Don't screw this up and don't let her escape!" He barked out more. He was in a building at the top of the roof across from the building they would go in. He had snipers ready to kill immediately.


message 610: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments "We have to go now," She said trying to hide a wince as Cormac yelled. She opened her door and stepped out. Though she was shaking her facial expression was stone cold. She opened the back so that Cedes could get out. Once she did she grabbed Mercedes' arm, to make it look like she was dominant, but Nat was really supporting her weight with her own. "Sebastian, we are leaving, if you don't come here now you will probably be killed by one of Cormac's men," she stated as she began to help Mercedes along, supporting most of her weight.

Seb listened to Cedes, he would follow her instructions but he wasn't sure what Natalia would do, she was a bit unstable at the moment and he wasn't sure she would betray Cormac. He put his hands up in defeat as Natalia snapped at him. "Okay, I'm coming." Seb was about to protest about how Nat was holding Cedes before he realized that she was supporting her. He followed them at a close distance into the building.

Mercedes got up slowly standing up when Natalia grabbed her hard but was really supporting Cedes she was relieved walking with them inside. She could tell the snipers were training guns on them which made her even more stressed out. "Nat if they touch you don't fight, please." She begged her quietly and lead them inside guns were already trained on them the minute they came in. Scott was hiding in the back, but he was in a disguise so Natalia couldn't get confused or distracted. Mercedes kept walking three of the guys lead them straight to the elevator one of them jabbed a needle into Mercedes making her flinch, but the other two did the same with Seb and Natalia. The liquid in the needle was a serum it could heal up all the wounds they had and disable any kind of trackers. They elevator took them up to the top floor Mercedes acted weak still, but she was shaking when she saw her boss.


message 612: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia had no idea what Cedes meant until they were in the building. She knew that Cormac's men had guns are, but she got even more jumpy when the guns inside trained on them. But she kept her head up and her face blank. When she felt a jab in the neck her immediate response nearly broke the nose of the guy who jabbed the needle into her neck in the first place, luckily he was quick and dodged. Nat's breath calmed down slightly and did not try to fight anymore, though her fight or flight instincts were on and she was judging each exit with careful eyes. There was no escaping now that they were on the top floor. When she saw Mercedes boss she shrunk back as far as she could from him.

Sebastian followed them in. He was less weary of the guards than the girls, he figured they would have already shot if they wanted them dead. He followed them into the elevator. He was less jumpy as a needle shot into his neck. He did not try to take out the guard that injected him, he just stood next to Mercedes and Natalia and watched the numbers of the elevator increase as they went up floors. He also unlike Nat did not shrink in fear from Mercedes boss, instead he stood next to Mercedes and took in his surroundings.

Mercedes looked up at her boss she wanted to flinch slowly the serum was taking effect on her she felt stronger then she was before. "I need the chip." She said to him though it made her upset to say it it was harder to speak once the chip was gone from her missing tooth. "I was hoping this day wouldn't ever come." he said to her his gun in his hand. She saw Cormac's oldest son standing behind the boss she was shocked. "Please he's going to kill Jess." She said to him. "Cut her loose then she can only access it." He said to Natalia who had the key of the cuffs that held Mercedes. She tried to not freak out looking over at Scott who was in a disguise she had to relax when she was free from the cuffs she went to where the vault of the chip was she could feel the snipers gun trained on her she was physically shaking in fear even if her wounds were healing. She pressed her palm to the to the scanner it was her dad's voice when it opened. She wiped her tears and went inside seeing the chip she picked it up carefully in her hand and walked out with it giving it to Natalia. "Give it to him. Let him deal with the pain he causes to this world." She whispered.


message 614: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia watched the exchange with narrowed eyes. She was also listening to Cormac in her ear asking what was happening, though she stayed quiet. He probably wouldn't be very happy about that fact when she got to him. Natalia released Cedes from the cuffs. She saw her relax. Natalia however was very not relaxed. She felt like all of the guns in the room were trained on her. She could hear Cormac yelling and she was trying not to show any fear. She watched Cedes go into the room. When she came back out Nat sighed with relief, especially when she handed Nat the chip. Nat nodded then looked over to Sebastian, "I'm assuming you are not coming back with me," She said, her voice was as smooth and hard as stone. He shook his head and she continued. When she reached the elevator she turned back to the room, "Don't waste a bullet on me, I'm already dead." she said to the general room, mostly to the boss and Cormac's son. She passed through the bottom room and went outside to wait for Cormac.

Seb was worried for Mercedes, he was wondering how she had managed to keep it together for this long. He was wondering what would happen after Nat goes, what ever happened it would be better than what Cormac had in store for them. He noticed someone that Cedes looked over to a guard. He was probably someone important in disguise. Seb watched Natalia leave without any resistance but her words sent a chill down his spine.

Mercedes was trying not to burst because Cormac had her baby niece with him she had to get her niece back. She went over to Seb Cormac's son already knew his mom was still alive and trapped he was going to get her back. "We have to go." She whispered to Seb handing him the gun she took from the room she didn't really give the real chip to Natalia but Cormac wouldn't know the different. "She's going to need our help. Your brother is safe he's waiting downstairs but if you see him now you might shut down." She meant her words about that his brother was with the protection downstairs. Mercedes was shaking badly the guard went over to them he was wanting to run over and save his Natalia before they get hurt.

Cormac smiled when he saw the exact chip in Natalia's hand. He wouldn't give the order yet about killing Mercedes. He watched Seb and told the sniper to shoot him just to distract Mercedes. But also to kill her boss tow loud shots were heard. Mercedes saw her boss was shot dead she freaked out when she saw Seb was hurt. "Oh my god! Seb!" She tried to help him up shaking she saw all the blood it was in his leg but it was deep. "Good Natalia good." he took the chip. Jessica was in a carrier crying she wanted her aunty.


message 616: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Seb paced the room, but his face lit up for a second when he heard his brother was safe. "We have to get both Jessica and Natalia out. But we have to be careful with Natalia, we may have to knock her out to get her away safely, she won't leave his side." Seb was about to walk away from the window when he heard two shots. One entered Cedes' boss and then he felt a searing pain causing him to collapse. He grimaced in pain and tried to get up with the help of Mercedes, but his leg collapsed from under him. "You guys need to go, I'll be okay," he hissed out from between his teeth.

Natalia let Cormac take the chip, and stood near him waiting. She flinched when she heard the scream and gunshots. She glanced over to Jessica who was crying, but she couldn't do anything about that right now, she had to focus on Cormac. She was waiting for him to do or say something about the job. Natalia may have been terrified of him but she would never betray him, including if that meant not going with Seb and Cedes.

He looked it over and smiled. "Let's get to the hideout," he said to them and lead Natalia to the car he got in starting it. The baby was in another car. "You did well. At first I was losing hope," he admitted to her driving them to the hideout. "Watch the brat. I'll talk to you after I'm done getting all the information I need from the chip." He parked the car and went inside to his office where no one would disturb him.

"Be careful." She couldn't help it and kissed his cheek getting up and going with Scott and told the son of Cormac to stay and not do anything else. She got into the car with Scott loading her gun she was still sore, but she was strong enough to go with Scott. "Get Natalia and Jess out of there. I'll take care of Cormac." She said to Scott. "He's going to kill you if you even try to fight him. Cedes you fought him before and almost died." He said to her in a protest. "He killed my father and I'm going to kill him." She meant her words to Scott. "I don't care if I get killed. As long as my family is avenged I'll feel better." She said to him. He sighed and drove to the hideout where Cormac was. He saw Natalia, "Help her and Jess." She got out and snuck inside through the vents going up to where Cormac's office was. Scott went over to Natalia after parking the car he grabbed her covering her mouth before the assassins saw they were ducked behind the car. "Sh..." He whispered to her. "it's me it's Scott." He whispered to her it was his voice he had to be careful and be careful with her and Jess.


message 618: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia got into the car with Cormac, she looked out of the window as he drove, there was no point in speaking. Once the car stopped she got out and waited for the car to drive up with Jessica in it. When it did she was about to go to it when she was grabbed. Natalia tried to struggle but her kidnapper had an arm around her whole body and he was quite a bit stronger. She stopped when she heard his name, Scott... It couldn't be. When she stopped struggling he released her and she whipped around, "What are you doing here? How are you alive? You can't be here!" she said all this rapid fire succession in a heated whisper, there was no way. He shouldn't be here and if he was here so was Cedes.

Seb was leaning against a wall breathing heavily from pain. He had tied a long piece of cloth above his wound which stopped the bleeding. He wasn't sure what was happening with Cedes but he wasn't sure he wanted to know.

Cormac was in his office. He felt very accomplished, soon all of his problems would be gone and he would be rich with wealth and power. He examined the chip, he was ready to find what his brother had put on this chip, but he heard something so he put the chip down and grabbed a gun from the underside of his desk, just in case.

"You think that I was really going to let you get hurt." He was glad she knew what Cormac did. "I'm sorry we have to go and get out of here. There isn't much time for Questions. I'll take care of them you get Jessica." he put a silencer on his gun but also had a knife. "Please trust me I'll explain everything later as soon as we get somewhere safe Nat," He whispered to her.

Mercedes gripped her gun and her knife when he was grabbing her gun she slipped into his office her gun pointed at him. "You really think that it was this easy?" she asked looking at him tears were in her eyes, but she didn't care. "How did you kill them? How did you get away with all of this without having much help, I know you framed Scott for killing Natalia's parents. I want to know how you killed my family before I kill you." she meant her words about that. She knew the sacrifices, but she was going to take those risks to fin dout what she wants.

Cormac's son helped wrap up Seb's leg and made sure it was tight. He didn't say much because he was too ashamed about his father and what he's been doing. "I'll bring you to your brother." He got up and helped Seb up taking him to where his little brother was.


message 620: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Nat was still kind of hung up on the fact that Scott was still alive, she was having a mental battle between going with Scott and staying here instead of figuring that out she looked at him, "Scott, where did Cedes go?" she asked. Nat knew that something was wrong, she just prayed that Cedes wasn't doing anything stupid. Natalia only had a knife strapped to her leg so she wouldn't do great in a gunfight.

Cormac looked up at Mercedes, "Oh yes, indeed barge in here," he wasn't surprised she was asking about her parents, that was the only thing a person her age aver asked about, "How did I kill them? Who? Your parents, Natalia's, or maybe perhaps your brother?" If she wanted answers he would give them to her in excruciating detail. "Let's start with your mother, it wasn't horrible. I shot her executioner style, one shot to the back of the head. Of course in front of your father. And how I dealt with my brother, hmm are you sure you want to know? It was a bit gruesome." His voice was drawling. He didn't believe she had the guts to kill him. It wasn't the girl's nature.

Seb followed Cormac's son, limping heavily on his good leg. It wasn't as though he hadn't been shot before. The bullet was just deep. He was ready to see his brother, and hoped that Mercedes was okay and they had gotten Jessica out.

"She told me to get you out first. Trust me Natalia lets get Jessica and go she can handle herself." He said to her but felt her arm where the tracker was and relaxed it was disarmed. "Natalia please come one." He didn't want her to go in there.

Sam Cormac's son helped him to the room his brother was in. He opened the door and Seb's brother was sitting down watching some cartoons. A social agent was with him and so was Sam's youngest sister Mia.

Mercedes rolled her eyes listening to him. She was more angry and decided to prove to him not to piss her off she shot him in the shoulder first. "What you did destroyed my life. You had the chance you could she killed me too with them but no you were too much of a coward to do that." She said to him. "Tell me!" She wouldn't ever call him uncle again he betrayed her trust and destroyed it. She wasn't the same person anymore.


message 622: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia pulled against Scott's grip, but not enough to actually cause him to let go. She looked up at him with wide eyes, "Are you sure Scott, we can't just leave her!" Natalia had conflicting feelings, she wanted to go with Scott and get Jessica out but she also wanted to stay and help Cedes. Part of her knew that if she got in the same room with Cedes and Cormac she wouldn't be able to pick a side. And hopefully Scott knew that too.

Seb smiled when he saw that his brother was unharmed, he walked into the room, completely ignoring the social worker, "Hey Lucas, you've grown!" He hadn't seen his brother in quite a while. He looked so much older, it was kind of sad that he had missed so much just to keep him safe.

Cormac hissed in pain as the bullet entered his shoulder. "That was not a cowardly act, I needed you alive," He narrowed his eyes at his niece, if he could call her that, "I have plenty of people you have never even heard of working for me. I killed your family because they got in my way. Like Natalia if you had given me 30 more minutes," he said plainly.

"She doesn't want you to go in because she knows if you're in the same room as her and Cormac you won't be able to choose a side. That's why she wants you to go with me and Jessica." He said to her. Mercedes told him that and he already knew he didn't want to loose Natalia in the crossfire.

Seb's brother looker up and smiled running over to his brother hugging him. "Where have you been Seb?" He asked curiously looking up at his brother. He had been there for a few days and hadn't seen his brother yet. "She said you would come back to get me." He mentioned not talking now about the social worker but about Mercedes.

Mercedes looked at her Uncle with a look of dead seriousness in her eye. "My parents weren't doing anything to stop you. They didn't even know anything. When you killed my mom did you know she was pregnant with my sister." She wanted to kill him right now. But after she kills him she had to get Sage out of this place. "You won't kill Natalia not after everything you've done. Cormac how would you feel if it was your daughter that was killed? She doesn't understand what's going on but is scared to death. Sam and Tom have to lie to her about you. To protect her from the real monster that you're." She said to him. Her life was destroyed when she lost her family and if she didn't realize it was Cormac who killed them she would have been dead already living with him.


message 624: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia had a battle in her head about whether or not to go with Scott, but she knew he was right. Nat finished struggling against his grip and went closer to him so that he knew she wasn't going to run for the hills. "Then we need to get out of here so someone can help her," Nat was trying to keep her calm act up so that Scott couldn't see the fear that was coursing through her veins.

Seb hugged his brother with a smile, he kept the pain throbbing in his leg off of his face. He didn't want to worry Lucas, "I got a little sidetracked, but I'm here now." He did not need to know anything about what Seb actually did. Sebastian did what he had to to keep his brother same, not to drag him into the world of kill or be killed.

"Oh, that's what you've been told Mercedes, to protect your parents' precious reputation. It's so obvious that your father knew all of what was going on, you just refused to see it because he failed to stop me," he paused to let her take in the information, "It is true that I didn't know your mother was expecting, you really think that your sister would have survived this world if she had survived?" When Mercedes mentioned Natalia he rolled his eyes, "You want to know why she is loyal to me? I was the one there for her when her parents were killed. I didn't see you there helping her to go on and training her to survive," It may have been his fault that her parents were dead in the first place, but he had a point. "I wouldn't kill my daughter, but she isn't my kin, Natalia is the person I trained to be the perfect little killer. Oh yes she is scared, she knows what is going to happen, did you see her protest? Did you see her try to run away on her own?" Cormac laughed, "I'm not the monster, I took her in, does that sound like a monster to you?"

Scott nodded and let her go. "I'll take care of the assassins get Jessica," he kissed her forehead and got up shooting the other assassins luckily with the silencer they finished up easily. He went over and stabbed the girl before she could call for help since his bullet only hit her arm. Jessica was crying in the car she was so upset Cormac did something to her when no one was looking the poor baby kept crying and wanted to run off.

Lucas smiled back at his brother. "You need to see down and nap you look tired!" He said to him walking with him over to the couch so he can sit down. "Why were you so busy Seb? Are you going to stay with me now?" he asked curiously wanting to know he was upset when his brother was gone. His brother was his best friend and he never wanted to loose him at all.

Mercedes wanted to snap and destroy him she was so upset and scared. "You killed my parents at the time you killed her parents. I couldn't be there for her because I was running! You pinned everything on me I hate you so much you destroyed my life!" She glared at him. "Why don't you try to kill me now? Before I kill you so that your daughter doesn't have to suffer from you anymore!" She knew all his dark family secrets just because he was her uncle but she never actually stay the night at his place she knew how evil he is. She was just glad Natalia wasn't around anymore she moved back looking at him. "You always teased me saying that you could beat me in a fight. Would you want to test that theory now." She was sure he would accept and he wouldn't survive the fight.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Nat nodded. She watched Scott come out of hiding and start shooting. When she saw the first few people fall she came out of her place and quickly made it to Jessica, the poor baby was crying but she had to stay in her car seat to stay safe for the moment. "Scott, I got her," she yelled across the room. She dodged a bullet that was aimed in her direction from the other end of the room.

Seb followed his brother and sat down on the couch. He wasn't sure what to tell Lucas, "I was finishing up helping people." Seb said, it seemed like the best option to tell him, "Of course I'm going to stay here, as long as you want me to," It was nice to be around his brother again. Having someone to look after always seemed to take his mind off of what was going on outside of where they were.

Cormac cocked his head, "That did happen at the same time, my bad. What about that family friend of yours that Nat killed? Scott was it? Wasn't he running with you?" Mercedes should have realized that he was the head of a giant organization of assassins, he had more than one gun in his desk. He also knew that she was very worked up about all of her history. "I did destroy your life. And I don't regret it," he found the gun on the side of his desk and aimed from under the desk. Cormac would have to get a new desk after this, but it was time for a change anyway. He shot, the bullet going through the back of the desk that he was sitting at, the answer to her question went unstated, but it was definitely there, Yes, he would accept the challenge to a fight.

Jessica was still crying and reaching for comfort. Scott ran over to them and shot the other person that tried to shoot her. "To the back I'll cover you two go!" He ran after her and still covered them from getting hurt. "Keep going and don't stop!" He yelled shooting at another group of people he unlocked the car and ran over getting in once he saw Natalia and Jessica were inside safely.

Lucas sat next to him listening. "I want you to stay all the time. I miss you." He admitted to his brother meaning those words he missed him so much and wanted to see him more often.But he understood because it was work and he wasn't going to try and get in the way of that as long as he could see his brother and see that he's safe.

Mercedes watching him. "No Scott wasn't running with me. I was alone Scott was trying to help Natalia when you framed him!" She was expecting him to try and shoot her she shot his shoulder again when she heard a gun go off she felt some pain, but it was only in her leg. She rather fight him in combat and destroy him at the same time. Troops from the FBI would be there soon and take Cormac in she couldn't kill him she wanted too though.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia carried the crying baby's car seat in her arms and got into the car as quickly as possible. She knew that Jessica wanted Nat to carry her, but the car seat was safer for the child. As soon as Scott got in she yelled at him, "Drive! I know you've driven a getaway car before!" Nat kept a hand on the gun and her lap and the other over Jessica.

Seb put his arm around Lucas and squeezed him. "I don't think that after today I will ever have to leave again." He said to his little brother. "How is it here?" he asked, "Have they been treating you well?" It seemed like they had, but he didn't really know the people that Mercedes worked for and the one agency he did know about wasn't very nice.

"Hm, oh yes. That did occur," he hissed in pain when the bullet entered his shoulder again, but Cormac was satisfied with the bullet entering her leg. "Why don't you kill me? You've had plenty of chances. You say you want to Mercedes, but you are just as cowardly as your father was." He was trying to get her to get mat and make a mistake. That would be her downfall. He was pretty sure there were agents on the way to take him in. He wasn't going to try to run, that would be for later.

Scott continued to shoot at them by the time he was done he ran and got into the car starting it and driving them to a safe place where they will switch cars to be safe. "Are you and Jessica okay?" he asked her as he kept driving trying to avoid anyone coming he parked in the woods opening the other car door and helping them inside it had a baby bag in there for Jessica and clothes for Natalia. Jessica continued to cry she was so hungry but was so scared too.

Lucas hugged his brother listening. "It's good. They're all nice and treat me good." He admitted. "I have my own room and everything here," he said to his brother really happy to see his brother and see that he's safe and sound just like Lucas was. But he missed their parents but was only glad to see his brother and be with him now. "There's a bed in my room for you too." Lucas had been there for a long time, but they kept him safe and sound.

"I can't blame Natalia if she wants to kill you. You deceived her I don't understand how you've changed so much. You were never like this when I was growing up at all!" She shot him again in the chest this time it wasn't to kill it was to make the death painful and slow. She wanted him to feel the same pain that she has feel for so long.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments "Oh please," Cormac said with an eye roll, "She doesn't want to kill me, you've seen how that pitiful child acts, she is more likely to pull the trigger on you." This wasn't even to mess with her head, from his experience with Natalia it was true. "You're right, I wasn't like this but now I have found something to do with my life." He felt a thud in his chest then fiery pain that caused his breathing to stop for what seemed like minutes. His breathing was hard but his glare was deadly in the direction of Mercedes.

Natalia had done this a few times where she had to change cars to get to a safe place so it wasn't a big deal. "We are fine, she is just scared." She said as she got the crying Jessica settled into the car. "Where are we going?" she asked, Nat was still a bit worried about Mercedes. She had no idea what was happening with Cormac.

Seb let Lucas hug him trying to keep a wince off of his face from his leg which was not bleeding heavily anymore but it was still oozing slightly. "That would be nice, I haven't slept in a proper bed in a long time." It was good to hear that Lucas was being treated well, after the last few days it was the best news he had heard. Seb tried to stifle a yawn, he was tired but he wanted to stay with Lucas.

Mercedes kicked him hard in the chest knocking him over she kicked him in the head hard. "Have fun in jail." She turned letting in the other agents not realizing that he landed right next to his gun. She watched the agents run in bu they were being a bit slow she just wanted this to be over and see her Jessica.

He nodded and continued to drive. "First we're going to the CIA building until Cormac is in custody then you'll be allowed to get to a home and relax," he explained to her trying to relax as he drove he parked them inside of CIA building and helped her inside with Jessica to make sure no one else was hurt he was sure Mercedes would be there soon.

"You need to sleep." He already saw that his big brother was tired. "Lucas it's time to eat," he heard one of the girls watching him said. "Okay, I'll be right back." He left with her and a medic came inside to help Seb.


message 632: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments "What home?" she muttered under her breath, not sure if Scott heard and not really caring. "Scott I'm fine, I don't need you to baby me." She said pulling away from him a little bit. This was a little sign that she was not fine with being betrayed, then finding out that someone she had thought she killed was alive. It was like she didn't want to get close to anyone, it started when her parents were killed and now the only other person she was close to was using her and was going to kill her.

Cormac groaned from the floor, his eyes blurry and head spinning, but he managed to land his hand on the gun and raised it, shooting in the general direction of Mercedes, who was walking with her back to him. He knew he was going to jail, and he wouldn't fight it, but he had a plan set up for if this event ever occured, it involved a lot of patience.

Sebastain nodded to Lucas as he went to eat. As soon as hie brother left the room he leaned his back against the wall letting out a long sigh of pain. He let the medic do what ever she needed to do. He was just tired, but he knew that he needed to take care of the leg wound he had neglected. It felt worse now that the adrenaline was not pumping.

"There's always a home for you," He assured her He walked inside with her and sat down. "You must be exhausted you must get some sleep." he could tell she was tired he could watch Jessica nd hold her. He looked down glad this was over Cormac was gone into the jail which made him relief.

Mercedes felt the bullet puncture her in the back she screamed unable to hold it. Two agents helped her and brought her straight to the hospital and Cormac was arrested and put in jail after being taken care of in the hospital. The news about her being injured badly spread to Seb, Natalia, and Scott. Sage was brought home her kids helping her remember everything that's happened.

The nurse finished up helping his leg and saved it before his leg got infected. As soon as she finished news about Mercedes was told to Seb and she was in bad condition. The nurse left him to get some rest and hopefully not do anything stupid. Lucas came back and had fallen asleep on the bed with his brother.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia nodded, though she wasn't really hearing his words, she definitely didn't believe there was any place for her. She gave the baby to Scott to hold and went to find a bed. The one she ended up falling onto was definitely not as soft as the one she had at the agency but it would do. She fell asleep and was plagued by nightmares until an agent woke her up saying that Mercedes had been shot. She nodded, not really responding to him and then found her way into a bathroom. she turned on the hot water tap of the shower mostly just to steam up the bathroom and to block out the noise of her crying.

Seb let the nurse fix and re-wrap his leg up. When he heard the news of Mercedes he was in stunned silence. He wanted to do something but he had to be there for his brother. Before his brother got back, Sebastion had already fallen asleep.

Scott held Jessica and made sure she was okay feeding her and calming the baby down. He was focused making sure she safe and sound. When he heard about Mercedes he grew scared but understood that she was going to be fine. He heard some muffled crying which he knew it was Natalia so it scared him. He set Jessica down she was sleeping in a crib he went over to the door knocking on it. "I know you probably don't' want to talk to me now. But If you need someone to talk too I'm here," he explained to her before going to sit down again.

Mercedes slept in the ICU at least the wounds were healing and she was going to be fine, but she was suffering from the traumatic events from these past few weeks. She was able to fight the painful memories crying as she slept she was so afraid.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia tried to wipe away the tears that were streaming down her face, it made her feel weak and helpless that Scott had heard her. She was use to having the facade of being cold, calm, confident Natalia. Having people know what she was actually feeling was scary, especially when she was broken and falling apart. She splashed her face with cold water from the sink and tried to calm herself down enough so that she could walk out of the door. It took another few minutes for her to be able to unlock the door and walk out to face the world with her stony expression. Her weakness would be gone until she slept and the nightmares awoke her.

Cormac had the bullets removed and the wounds stitched up at the hospital then was transported to a solitary cell in an extra high security prison. He was rather bored already. He figured it would be impossible to wait long enough for his plan to be put into action, but he had no other choice.

Scott saw how scared she was he went over to her and brought her over to the couch. "Try to sleep like this. It might help." He rubbed her back gently a me this he used to do to help her sleep. "You need to rest." He wasn't going to let her go into a different room. This would help her a lot.

Mercedes was so weak but was able to move and talk fast. She decided she'll go back to college and get her degree at least in culinary so she'll have a job. That was her plan before she was asked to do the mission. She gave permission for the chip to be destroyed with all its information in it. The cell Cormac was in had surrounding cells of other criminals.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia let Scott guide her to the couch. She sat on the couch next to him with her head on his shoulder and her feet curled behind her like she use to do when she was younger. She was curled up like it was the only way she would stay safe. Nat knew that Scott probably wouldn't let her leave his side and she was okay with that because she really didn't want to be alone. She was no longer crying, but she was shaking. She didn't know what she was going to do now that Cormac was gone. She didn't have a home to return to.

Cormac could hear the other criminals around him, they would be useful for his plan. He was cursing himself for not aiming better and taking out Mercedes. It would cause more trouble when he finally did get out of his cell. It wouldn't be for a while though. He had to let them get adjusted to their knew lives, to stop training and lose some of their ability. Then would be the perfect time.

Scot held her close rubbing her back gently and soothingly. "Everything's okay," He assured her. "It's easier to talk about everything.' He assured her wanting her to relax and he wanted her to smile he hated seeing how upset she was.

"Hey, what did they put you in for?" A young kid with glasses stared up at Cormac giving an evil smirk to him. He and his two accomplices were looking at Cormac from the cells. All young and evil looking, but they all seemed to be well known on the news as killers.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Natalia let her face rest in the crook of his neck so that her voice was muffled. "What are we supposed to do? I never thought this would end," The guilt of what had been her previous life might truly destroy her. It wasn't a problem when she believed wholeheartedly in Cormac, but now her thoughts were all scrambled in her head. She had killed at least double the amount any of the others had, simply for the fact she was better at it than Sebastian and the other two had been on the run most of the time. And she had not only killed, but she had tortured many people, including Mercedes and Sebatian and she had never felt remorse, because she truly believed that it was the right thing to do. She use to be made of stone, now she was more of a shattered mirror.

Cormac studied the kid, who he had just briefly glanced over earlier and written off. Maybe he was too quick to judge. He thought about what to say and decided on being rather blunt, if this kid was here he definitely wasn't innocent. "I am the leader of the largest group of assassins in the western hemisphere," he said with narrowed eyes, "Cormac Cole, and you are?" he said, looking the kid up and down, he was definitely not innocent.

"We have to let the pain out and then hopefully slowly move on," He admitted to Natalia. "Everything's going to be okay Natalia as long as we work together. I can protect you Natalia and make sure you're safe and sound." He wanted her to relax and calm down. He wanted to be with her "Natalia I know everything is so hard. But I don't want you to suffer at all." he assured her. "I still love you, Natalia." He said softly to her.



The Kid smirked. "Edwin Corrosion." He said to him laughing slightly. The kids name was known his parents were a couple of killers one of the worse. He was one of them as well he and his friends were known by their nicknames. They hunted female girls and killed them but also robbed some of the most secure banks in the world. "You might know me and my guys as the Deathfreed cult," he said to him with glee.

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Nat wrapped her arms around his neck. She was trying to stay calm but her breath was ragged. She could barely remember when they were this close, it was before her parents died. She didn't have a chance to mourn after that, but this was worse. Natalia wouldn't let herself cry, she didn't want Scott to see her in pain, it wasn't fair to him. The thing that pushed her to suck it up was him saying he still loved her. Back in the house where him and Mercedes were hiding he had said some things that broke her, even though now she realized it had been an act, it still slightly weighed on her. She calmed her breathing and pulled away, making sure to wipe the dampness from her eyes. If there was anything she was good at, it was making other people believe her. She put on the face of a person who was going to be okay.



Cormac nodded as he recognized the name. "I remember you guys, I had an assassin get into a spot of trouble with you," he thought for a second, "Come to think of it, I wish you had killed her. That would have made things a lot easier for me once I get out of here." As he was talking, Cormac was coming up with a plan in his head, he could definitely use Edwin's services, it could potentially benefit them both.

He held her closer rubbing her back. "Natalia I know you don't want me to see you in pain, but you have to cry holding it all in hurts the most," he wanted her to relax and not cry he wanted her to smile and be happy. He looked at her kissing her forehead gently. "I'm so sorry for the things I've said but I had to protect you from Cormac he was listening in." He wanted her safe and sound if she ever got hurt he wouldn't' ever forgive himself.

"Who was the assassin?" He asked. "I remember faces but names not too much. "I could kill her easily no one usually escapes us," he admitted wanting to know who the girl was and if he ever touched her with his friends and killed her. "I know your Mercedes Cole's Uncle. She's a real piece of work put me and my buds in here gave me a scar bet she doesn't remember me anymore." He admitted. "That's Marco and that's Paul. My partners, we had a fourth but he was killed." he laughed though.


message 646: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments Cormac smirked, "You didn't kill her, she is still alive. I'm not sure if you personally ever met her, she was suppose to snatch something from one of your bases. Her name is Natalia Mcvey. One of my best creations, if I so say so myself." his tone sounded rather annoyed. Had Cedes not interrupted him Natalia would already be dead, oh well, it'll happen eventually. "Yes," he said rather disdainfully, "She is my niece, and we seem to be in the same boat when it comes to that. She is also the reason I am her, she also had the nerve to shot me." he said plainly.

"I know, you don't have to apologize," she said, her tone was about as nervous as it was when they were about to go in and get the chip, "I am still having trouble convincing myself that he isn't still listening." her words were truthful and overly shaky. She relaxed a little, letting his words soothe her.

"Oh yeah, feisty Natty." He knew her she was a pain in the ass. "Mercedes always was the worse. If you want revenge we can help." He answered smiling. "We just need to get out of this damn forsaken place. I still got connections with my cult members they can provide anything you need." He said to Cormac willingly.

"I understand," He assured her rubbing her back still. "It's going to be okay." He kissed her cheek. "We can go and visit Mercedes if you want? She can help you too." He was sure they could all move on without any problems.


message 649: by Audie Murphy (new)

Audie Murphy | 471 comments "You would have to worry much about her anymore," He said in response to the side comment about Natalia. Cormac listened to the deal the kid was proposing. It wasn't bad, all they would need to do is plan. "That would be greatly appreciated. I've been thinking a bit about this already and decided we probably need to wait at least a month, let them get use to life without me, it would be more effective," he said.

Nat nodded, she needed to see if Mercedes was alright, a lot of the pain she had been in recently was Nat's fault and she needed to know if she was going to be okay and if she would forgive Nat. She leaned into Scott a little minute more, drinking in his warmth that surrounded her.

He nodded listening. "A month I'm sorry to say this, but it won't work in a month. If you want to catch them but total surprise you have to wait a year or two. Luckily that's plenty of time for planning." He said to them meaning his words about it. He looked at the man he knew what he was talking about and this was a good idea to do if Cormac listens.

Scott held her close making sure she was okay and keeping her close. "Everything's going to be fine." He would think after this that they'd be moved out of the country to somewhere safe where no one else could get hurt and live their lives well.
