When Gabriel and I arrived back at the Rodriguez house no one else was there. Jake and Rafael seemed to be still gone so we just said goodnight and went into our bedrooms. Being sure that Gabriel wouldn't come to me I took out the hard drive and put it into my laptop, I opened the only file on it and looked at the names on the top for a while. I was curious but I didn't know what I should do with all this information, I didn't want to destroy it. I thought about who I could look for and then slowly typed in the name >Jacob Mel<. Now his file was at the top, I hesitated. I should trust him to tell me if there would be anything to talk about but that would mean it wouldn't make much of a difference if I read his file. I clicked on it.

"Hey!" someone came into the room, I closed the laptop and looked at Jake. "You look shocked, didn't expect me yet, huh!?" he smiled and closed the door behind him. "No, you're right, I didn't." I smiled and put the laptop aside. "What are you doing?" he asked while he changed into more comfortable clothes. "Just wrote something about our fish." I grinned "Really? Can I read?" he asked, knowing I was talking about Gabriel whose name was actually Thomas, and jumped on the bed next to me. As soon as I reboot my laptop, he's gonna see his file on the screen, I couldn't risk that and shook my head. "Wouldn't you rather do something else?" I leaned over him to kiss him, but he was faster and stronger and was over me now. His kiss was intense, and his hands were quickly on my skin. While he was busy kissing and touching me, I secretly put the hard drive out of the laptop to let it slip under the bed. And when I was sure he wouldn't find out about what I just wanted to do I engage with it and kissed him back with the same intention.

The next day Rafael wanted us to spend together, with an old friend on a boat. Before noon we were in the middle of the sea, blue all around us. I had sunglasses and a hat cover my face to protect it from the sun and over my swimsuit I wore one of Jakes shirts. It was way to long for me, but I liked how the material felt on my skin, it was soft and not warm at all. I sat next to my boyfriend enjoying the sun and the view over the blue sea. Rafael and Gabriel had fishing rods out on the other side of the boat and the friend of Rafael just came over to Jake and me.

"So, you are pretty good looking. Do you have a thing for one-night-stands?" the stranger asked, I didn't mind to waste energy with even looking at him. Jake put his arm around me. "Undress her with your eyes one more time and I will throw you of the boat and tell Rafael to leave you for dead." He threatened him. "I didn't even see that look. But thanks for mentioning it, babe. Tell me if he does it again, I want to throw him in the water." I said, still not moving much. "As if." The guy laughed "Don't underestimate her." Jake warned him, he just sighed and then left. "Let him do something next time, then I got a reason to hurt him. He was not really nice from the start. I don't like him. Do you know is name?" I put my hands on the one Jake had on my arm. "Alejandro Garcia. One of Verándo's former followers, started his own business a while ago." He told me and let me lay my head on his lap, he pulled my hat over my face to keep my face safe from the sun that was shining right over me. "You guys are an adorable couple." I now heard Gabriel's voice close to us. "Thanks... I guess." Jake replied, I just took his hand to agree with him. "Rafael's sister, Maria, is gone, again. He thinks it was Garcia this time. I feel like you will witness him murder soon, make sure to get your proof this time so we can go home." I felt how he sat down next to us. "I am really happy that I met you. And I'm happy you found out who I really am." He said, I reached my hand out for his, without seeing anything. "Give me your hand now, idiot!" I asked him since I couldn't find it, they laughed, and Gabriel took my hand. "Thanks. It's just for the effect." I explained with a grin "I am happy that we could help you to get home finally, after six years. I hope we stay in contact after this." I said. "Okay, please take your hand back now." I felt how Jake took my wrist to take my hand away from Gabriel. "Don't worry, females are not really my type." Gabriel chuckled a bit and then got back up. "I'll start talking to Rodriguez about Garcia now, get ready to get proof and don't try stopping him. We need to wait until he doesn't have a weapon with him. He is stronger than you think, and he kills without hesitation." Gabriel said, we nodded, and I sat up straight. Jake opened the camera-app on his phone and put it in the chest-pocket of his shirt to film everything. We watched how Gabriel started talking to the two criminals. After a while I realized that Rafael started to get pretty worked up, then he got a call and that took all his patience.

After Rafael hung up, he pushed Garcia to the ground and shot his knee. As a natural reaction Jake and I got up and went over there. "What happened?" I asked, "This bastard took my sister again!" Rafael told us with an evil smile before he pushed Garcia into the water. We were on the sea and that man was bleeding, what means it could be soon that a shark arrives at the boat. "Where is she?" Rafael screamed and grabbed Garcia's arm to keep him away from the leader with which he could get back on board. "I will kill you and search the whole country for any trace of her! You can make it easier for me and have a chance to stay alive or I'll work harder and let you get eaten alive." His voice was still raised, I took a look at Gabriel. The British agent looked straight forward over the water, with a gun in each hand, one of them was Rafael's, who couldn't hold it because he would lose either the hold on the boat or the man he's threatening. When he noticed I was looking at him he returned my look and slowly shook his head. He knew exactly what I was thinking, I wanted to push Rafael over the railing too. "Verándo got her! I brought her to him! Please pull me up!" Garcia begged with tears in his eyes. "Wow, you are really weak, I wonder how you are still alive." Rafael said and let go of him. Before Gabriel could say something to make Rafael reconsider his plan, the boss already took his gun back and shot the man in the water. The lifeless body floated in the ocean, the water around him was darker because of the blood he was losing.

"Let's get back to the coast, we got to find Maria. Again." Rafael turned away and went to start the motor of the boat again. I looked shocked at the other two, they didn't show any emotion. Gabriel just followed Rafael and Jake sat down and looked at his phone as if nothing happened. I took a few deep breaths and then sat down next to Jake. "I got it all on video, we got him. We can finish it tonight." He said, silent enough so only I could hear it. I looked straight ahead at the water, I didn't want to over-react about the fact that he doesn't show any emotion, so I couldn't look at him. "I am not allowed to show how I feel about what just happened, it's dangerous. But after tonight I won't have to hide it anymore. And you know he would have killed us too if we would have stopped him. But we finally can finish this." He took my hand and put pressure on it. Now I looked at him but only for three seconds.

When we arrived back at the coast, we directly went into Rafael's car and, full of rage, he drove to the building in which I tried seducing a Cartel boss last night.

Without hesitation Rafael jumped out of the car and entered the mansion of Miguel Verándo. On his way he knocked out a few guards and didn't mind about checking if we followed him. "You were so right, even without a weapon he's dangerous." I told Gabriel while we followed Rodriguez. Since Rafael was furious and worried, we didn't struggle to get into the basement where he kicked down a door. A lot of female voices screamed in shock. "Maria!?" Rafael yelled. His voice scared me, it was deep and cold and loud, I felt intimidated. Since I was sure that I wasn't the only one that felt like that I walked past him into the room. I shared a friendly smile to calm down the girls and it got silent. When Rafael couldn't see his sister, he turned around and went back upstairs, Jake followed him. Gabriel spoke Spanish and told the girls they would be safe now and we would lead them outside. And so, we did, we made sure every one of the girls got outside safely and then we went back inside to find Rafael hitting Miguel. Rodriguez yelled at him to tell him where his sister was, but he didn't even give Verándo any chance to answer. "Rafael!" Gabriel caught his fist "Let him speak." He said, knowing he couldn't hold Rodriguez back for long. Now we all looked at the man with blood all over his face, expecting him to answer. "At Garcia's house, he wanted her for himself and never brought her to me." He stuttered "If you're lying I will kill you." Rafael said and let go of him, we all followed him back to the car. I used the moment of weakness and took out my phone, opened an app and pressed a button. I got that app from my agency, it's a signal for them to get us out and to arrest Rafael, it sends our coordinates to the central in Washington and they send someone to get us.

It didn't take long until some black SUVs crossed our way and blocked the street. To keep Rafael from acting out and shooting someone we kept acting and convinced him not to try anything.

After we stepped outside of the car and kneeled on the ground everything passed quickly. They identified as secret service, we threw our weapons away, Rafael hesitated but followed our example and as soon has he had handcuffs around his wrists, I was the one with the honor to tell him what just happened.

"Rafael Rodriguez in the name of the United States of America you are arrested for murder, gun and drug trafficking and a few more things which will be told when we got time for that. You have the right to remain silent, everything you say can and will be held against you. You have the right to get an attorne-" he didn't let me finish and just yelled a few curses. "If you can't afford one..." "Shut up! You know I can afford it! And you know I will come for you and if not me, my family will. You messed with the wrong people!" he screamed. "I guess we'll finish this later." I gave up. "We should get Maria now." Gabriel said, I nodded. "We'll safe her, you just be a good boy and fly to Washington with those nice agents. We'll see you in trial." I said and then turned away to follow Jake and Gabriel who got a car key from one of the agents. "I'll drive." Gabriel said before one of us could, Jake and I just accepted it without complaining on the outside. But I knew he wanted to drive as much as I wanted to, after the way Rafael drove everyone would feel safer driving by themselves.

For a while it was silent in the car until Jake leaned to the front. My boyfriend was enough of a gentleman to let me sit at the front. "So, should we call you Thomas now?" he asked, the British agent looked at him. "If you tell me how you found out who I was you can do that." He replied, "And how are we supposed to call you if I don't tell you?" "Not at all." "Wow, such a cold answer after we worked with you for so long?" I asked "Well... if you think about it, we didn't work with each other for so long because none of us knew who the other one actually was. And we worked long together, but Jake only came in four months ago." He smirked. Before I could make a joke about that, Jake leaned more forward. "So, I knew something was weird with you. I decided to check you, and even though there was a nice file for Gabriel Santiago, I knew something was wrong, so I ran your picture through our database, also nothing suspicious. But you always had that British accent when you greet people, I don't know how, but you do. So, I looked for the British agents that are undercover in America and found someone fitting to you." Jacob explained him. "By the way, it's cool that you got a new name." he added and then disappeared in the back of the car again. "Well MI6 is simply cooler than CIA." He laughed. "We're not CIA." Jake and I said at the same time. Thomas stopped laughing. "Okay, then CIA was helping you to arrest Rafael!?" he asked "No." we slowly said. "Jane, do me a favor and pick up that ID that's lying to your feet." He asked, I was confused and took a look. There was a CIA-identification-card.

"Daniel Blake." I read the name. "What? No. Impossible." Jake said and took it from me. "Why? Jake, how do you know him?" Thomas asked him and looked at him through the mirror. "My first mission. He was corrupt and I was part of the team that was supposed to catch him. Something went wrong. His accomplice was able to get away, but we killed him, after he killed my mentor and shot me. So, it's impossible that Daniel Blake is here, that must be a fake." He told us. "Jane, read what the Navigator screen says, there is something that shouldn't be." Thomas said, I was confused but did what he said.

"I am not dead, this is my revenge Jacob Mel. Open the doors and go to hell." I read it. "We're doomed. Why did you mess up your first mission, Jacob?" Thomas said with his eyes on the street. "Shut up." My boyfriend replied "Blake, can you hear us? What do you want?" he asked and then we waited. "I want Rodriguez, the young one obviously. Get him out and I'll reconsider." I read the answer. "I'll call Carlson let's see if he would exchange our lives for the freedom of a Mafia." I said, knowing he wouldn't but I had the hope that he would know our situation and find a way to help us. "Let's hope that there is a point in threating us." Thomas sighed and took a different road then the one we were supposed to use, he must have a plan. I took out my phone and looked for the number saved as Big Boss.

"We have a problem, sir. A black dragon asked us to release Rafael, probably working for The Big One. We are going to blow up if he doesn't get him. What should we do?" I said. Black Dragon was the codename for Jake's first mission and The Big One is Rafael's father who was plan-ning on killing his son in order to stay more powerful than him. I hoped it was enough for Carlson to understand what's going on and waited for an answer. "We're on it, looking for someone from that case who could be alive. Tell the driver to find a way to get you out of there, we'll take care of Maria and the one who is threating you, be patient Agent Mazelyn." "Got it." I said, my boss hung up.

"Blake, he is working on it, it'll take some time though. We should find a way-" I looked at Thomas to tell him that he was supposed to find another way for us to escape. "-we should find a way to be patient enough for it." I finished my sentence.

After a quarter hour of silence I got a call from Carlson. "We found Daniel Blake but can't deactivate the bomb in the car, we can only delay the detonation for five seconds, we will do that, in exactly five Minutes you have to be somewhere were the explosion can't hurt anyone and jump out of the car while it is still driving, so you don't get in-jured too much." "Understood." I simply replied, he hung up.

"Guys, they got him but can't stop the bomb from detona-tion. We have five seconds to jump out of the driving car in exactly 4 minutes and 34 seconds." I said while activat-ing a timer on my phone.

During the time we waited Thomas drove to a cliff and nobody said a word but still we all felt the tension that spread in the car. We all have been close to death before but never this close.

"10 seconds." I said and counted down, we all put one hand on the door closest to us. Thomas pressed the gas pedal and drove closer to the cliff. "Three, two one. Jump!" all the doors opened at the same time and we jumped out, the car drove of the cliff and exploded in the air while we rolled over the grass, hoping we wouldn't be hit by any pieces.

I had my eyes closed since I jumped out and opened them when I felt a burning pain on my back while I was laying on the grass. I looked for Jake and Thomas. The MI6 Agent had some blood running down next to his eye but seemed fine since he was able to stand up without a prob-lem. My boyfriend was sitting on the grass and put pres-sure on his bleeding shoulder. "You guys okay?" Thomas asked and came to me to help me sit up straight. "My back hurts, feels like it's burning." I said. Thomas took a look "Looks bad, but it'll be fine. Get up, we'll walk into the direction of the saving-team."

In the next morning Jake and I already sat in the FBI-jet back to Chicago, Thomas is flying back to London. Our wounds were treated a bit, but we'll have to stay at the hospital of Chicago for a few days when we're back.
