Nick lay in a pool of flood and Jessica walked on him and went to the window. Jessica jumped down the window and walked into a dark alley.
The alley ended on the street. A car was already waiting.

Jessica: Ready?

The driver nodded.
Jessica got in the car and nodded to the driver who looked at her through the rearview.

??: Good job.

Jessica smiled and the driver drove off.

___________

Mia: D-Dad...?

David Edward Robinson sat there with a cold expression on his face.

Mr. Robinson: My daughter has grown up. How dare you go and live with those who made your father bankrupt?!

Mia gulped.
Mia: Did you ever think of me as your daughter?

Mr. Robinson: I gave you everything you asked for.

Mia:  Who brought me here? And how did you find me?

Mr. Robinson laughed.
Mr. Robinson: I'm your father, Mia. I have my ways.

A young man's laugh was heard near the door.

________________

Maverick was feeling sick. He knew he'd been drugged and so was Pamela.  He wrapped a handkerchief around Pamela's wound.

Mark: Pam! Pam!

He kept slapping her face gently and checked her pulse. He cannot lose the last person who had both his father's and mother's blood.

After several attempts, Pamela finally regained her senses. She felt nauseous and tired.

Pamela: Mark, Jessica... She...

Mark: I know she's the one who attacked me. We need to get outta here right now.

Pamela: She hit you and then, she shot me in the arm.

Pamela slowly sat up, holding onto her brother. Her head was paining and she felt a bit weak.

Pamela: You wait in the corner. I'll check if there's someone here.

Maverick hid in the corner and waited.

Pamela: Why isn't it working?

Mark (whisper): What happened?

Pamela: It's saying the wrong password.

Mark: Wrong? But...

Pamela: She changed it. 007 changed the password.

Mark: No way!

Pamela: She did, Mark! She fvcking locked us! And none of our men are here right now. We don't even have mobile phones. Ugh!

_____________

Mia: W-Who is there?! Who?

Mr. Robinson looked at his daughter with a cocky smirk.

Mr. Robinson: Calm down, my daughter. Don't worry. He won't cause any harm to you since I'm here. He's a gentleman, unlike the one who you love.

Mia: W-What?

Mr. Robinson: Don't you love the Boss of the planning department of Born Killers? Albus Martinez, hmm?

Mia looked at her father in disbelief.
How did he know about this? How?

Mia: Jane...? Did she tell you about this?

She least thought that Jane Kline would pass this information to her father.

Mr. Robinson: What? Jane? Who's that?

Mia couldn't believe it. Jane betrayed her! Out of all the people, Jane...?

Mia: Don't act like you don't know her! I know, she's the one who told you!

Mr. Robinson was confused. He couldn't understand what his daughter was trying to say.

___________

Pamela and Maverick paced in the room. The door cannot be broken due to security reasons.

Pamela: Mark...

Maverick looked at her.

Pamela: Sit down. All we can do is wait.

Maverick sighed and then sat facing Pamela, both resting their backs on the wall.

Mark:You wanna say something, right?

Pamela: Ask.

Mark: Hmm, ask

Pamela took a deep breath and looked straight into Maverick's eyes.

Pamela: Do you... really love Jessica?

Maverick shifted his gaze and smiled.

____________

Jessica: How's everyone?

??: Quite good. It's good to see you here.

Jessica smiled.
She'd finally come here.

Jessica: Is Ian here?

The other person nodded.
??: He's been managing everything quite well, thanks to your plans.

Jessica: Time has come to fulfill dad's wishes. I need to take things in my hand. Ian needs to rest now

??: He'll be happy to have you back here.

_______________

Mia: Dad! Who told you about this?

Mr. Robinson: DDIA. Why do you care, Mia?

Mia: That shouldn't be your concern. You never cared about me, so you shouldn't know why I care! Just leave me! Just let me go!

Mr. Robinson: I didn't bring you here to let you go.

Mr. Robinson looked at the door and smiled. Mia's heart was beating fast.

Mr. Robinson: He told me everything about you

Mia frowned.
He...? It's a man..? Jane... She didn't tell Robinson... Who is it?

Mia's anger cooled down but she was engulfed in confusion.

Who is the man?

__________________

Jessica: It's time already. I need to meet him. See you later

The other man nodded. Jessica had changed her dress into denim and a hoodie.

Jessica went to Washington via jet and then drove a car to the place she'd decided to go. It was close to where she was a few minutes ago. And she was closer to the person she was going to meet.

The old man was already waiting for her in front of the gates. It was not the front gate of the mansion, but the back gate. The gate had access to only a particular group of people.

Jessica parked the car and followed the old man.

????: How are you dear?

Jessica: Pretty so-so. And you?

????: I'm okay. Just counting on my days.

Jessica: I think, you need to go there.

????: Where?

Jessica: You'll see. Just have faith in me. You'll be happy to see the two of them

______________

Mia: He? Who is the man?

Mr. Robinson: An agent from DDIA. One of the top agents, the best snipper.

The man came in front of Mia and smirked. He was at least six feet tall, had a god-like physique, his hazel eyes were sparkling even in the dim light and his face was beyond perfection.

???: Hello Mia! Welcome to my house.

Mr. Robinson smiled.
Mr. Robinson: Mia, be nice to him. Or else he's gonna kill you

Mia: You think I fear death?! Mr. Robinson, you don't even know your daughter. Shame on you!

The young man looked at the two.

???: Sir, don't worry. I'll manage everything.

Mr. Robinson nodded and went out of the room.

Mia: Can you do me a favor?

The man raised his eyebrows.

Mia: Untie my hands.

???: And why should I?

Mia: I know what you're up to. You want the locations of Born Killers.

The man looked impressed.
???: Indeed.

He untied her hands. Mia stood up and looked at him.

Mia: Who are you? What's your name?

The man gave her a crooked smile.
???: I'm Agent 002. Liam Lopez

______________

Mark: Dunno

Pamela: Huh?

Mark: I don't know if I'll be able to love her the same way I did after what happened to you.

Maverick closed his eyes, resting his head on the wall.

Ever since he saw her, he knew she was the one for him. He knew Jessica would be his.

But little did he know that she was something more than she lets the world know...

Pamela didn't say anything. She was looking at the door, waiting for someone to open the door. It was already midnight and both of them were tired.

______________

The jet landed near the Torture Cell. Jessica got out of the jet, the old man following him. He was wearing a mask, which covered his head and face.

The criminals wore masks when they were brought to the Torture Cell and to not gain attention, Jessica made the old man wear the mask.

Jessica: Be careful

????: Here? It's DDIA, right?

Jessica nodded.
The two entered the special chamber where Maverick and other major criminals were kept.

????: Where are you exactly taking me?

Jessica didn't respond. She just kept walking holding the old man's hands.
She reached the specific door and dialed the security password.

______________

A ray of hope seemed to help them.

Suddenly, a click was heard. The two opened their eyes and looked at the door.

Maverick stood up and helped Pamela.

Pamela: What was that?

Mark: Did someone open the door?

Pamela looked at Maverick, whose face was sweaty and read confusion.

Pamela: What's happening?

Slowly, the door opened, revealing a masked man and a young woman behind him.

They knew who the woman was and Pamela's confused face changed into anger.

Pamela: What are you doing here?!

She was about to charge at the woman but Maverick stopped her.

Mark: Jessica?!

Jessica didn't say anything. She looked at the old man who was standing in front of her.

Pamela: How dare you lock us here?! And... Who is he?!

The man opened his mask and looked at them. The brother-sister duo looked at him with wide eyes.

Pamela: No way!

Jessica and the old man entered the cell. Jessica locked the door.
Maverick looked at Jessica.

How did she manage to do this?

"𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗮...?"
