"Ben are you ready" Erica asked me. We were getting ready to infiltrate the rooms with Boomer agents.

I nodded. 

Erica walked over towards me" Come on" She said. I followed.

"Bye Catherine" I said. She waved bye. Uncle Grant was in the shower.

Erica took my hand and dragged me.

"What rooms Ben" Erica asked me.

"39, 16, 56, 90,23,46,15,95,55,42" I said.

"Ben! In order" Erica said

"15,16,23,39,42,46,55,56,90,95" I repeated in order.

"Thanks. We'll start with 15 and go up" Erica said. 

We started to go in. I accidentally bad a loud sound. Erica turned around and looked at me frustrated and annoyed "Ripley. Shhhhhhh.." Erica whispered with a finger over her mouth.

Creek. Creek.

"Someone's coming" I exclaimed quietly.

Erica nodded and yanked me into a closet. I smelled her lilac and gunpowder. I didn't freak out about that cause by now we have been a hell lot closer to each other and in worse situations.

Erica looked stunned I wasn't reacting to anything. It looked like she missed seeing me freaked out.

"Boss there's no one here" I heard an agent say.

"Btw I didn't think that we got rid of the Hale and Ripley people. They need to go bye bye. Also, check again. Anyone could be in here hiding!!" Apparently the boss roared at their agent.

Something that was said was bothering me. I know every evil organization wants to kill me and Erica but this sounded different.

I could tell Erica saw me thinking.

We heard the steps closer to the closet. Erica motioned to sink into the clothes. I did so. I grabbed her hand lightly so she wouldn't be shocked.

The door opened. We both were hidden in the clothes. The agent looked with a flashlight. Erica was lightly rubbing my hand think I was going to panic. I didn't. I can't. What's the point in living now. What's the point in being scared, my biggest fear has happened.

My parents dying cause of me.

I only have 1 real fright that was large Erica dying. But, she wouldn't at least not now. She's right here next to me right now.

The flashlight dawned on our hands but it was covered by clothes. Me and Erica were both holding our breath.

Erica let go and I felt a giant whose of wind.

The agent pulled away but neither me or Erica moved. He shut the closet door" Sir, there's no one " The agent said.

"If I look in that closet and find something then you are fired" The boss said.

I shrunk back info the wall to be greeted to see a nice view. A whole new room. I backed up farther and the wall opened. It was silent which was good for us.

I yanked Erica to find no Erica. The boss had left. Where was Erica. I fell back into the room.

"Took you long enough" Erica said.

"How...how did you get here" I asked.

"Magic" She replied simply.

I walked around the room.

"Look at this" I whispered.

"I know. The room is amazing but we need to find something that would lead us for the mission" Erica said.

I nodded and started scooping around.

The walls were made out of gold. I ran my hand gently across it then cleaned it so my finger print wasn't on it. 

It was real gold.

"Ben" Erica asked. I looked to find her but I didn't see her" Turn around Sherlock" She said.teasingly laughing a little.

I shrieked when I turned around even though I knew she was behind me. Erica still has the scare effect like that.

"What's wrong. Is Ben scared" She mocked. I nodded my head and she gave me a hug. It felt nice for her to hug me out of no where. I then felt her touch my back.

"What are you doing" I asked.

She whispered in my ear softly" I need to make sure we don't lose you"

I turned around again" Who's we" I asked" and what's wrong"

"We" Erica said. She had a button in her hand which looked like she would press it at any moment.

"Erica. What's going on and who's we" I asked. I slowly walked.backwards ready to grab my gun. Although Erica would rip my head off and she knows I'm bad at using it but you never know if I'm lucky and hit my target.

"Am I really Erica" Erica asked.

"You look like her. Erica has the smell of lilac and gunpowder while you" I said. I paused realising. This isn't Erica " you...you don't smell like that. You smell like lavender and gunpowder. Who are you!!"

"Yeah, no one can perfectly match someone else's natural smell. I would of never been able to match Erica's scent that she carries" The girl said.

Great to know. Now, I know to sniff the air. I've been close enough to Erica to know every single tiny bit of her smell.

"Your enemy" The girl said and clicked the button.

I fell through the floor. 

"ahhh" I screamed. They already no I'm here so what is the point in hiding it.

I bonked my head on the wall as I dropped down into a chair. The chair automatically strapped me in.

"Mpphh" I heard a muffle from behind me. I looked back and saw Raven hair. I sniffed the air. Lilac and gunpowder.

Real Erica.

"Erica!" I said relieved she was here. Well with me but neither one of us want to be in this mess.

Erica kicked the bottom of my seat. She then kicked it again and pushed the chair down. She flipped over me and smashed her chair. It shattered into pieces as she landed.

She had bonds over everything and she had a gag in her mouth. But, like the awesome incredible Erica she is she was still able to cut through the rope of mine to get me free.

After she did that she turned around and shook her hands and legs. I got it. She wanted me to break the ropes. Erica's arm was cricked. Like, really badly. It was bending in a way that shouldn't be bent in. I untied her hands and arms. They all just fell. I untied her legs. I took the gag out of her mouth.

"Erica you alright" I asked.

She nodded no then yes. I think she just doesn't want me to worry about her."I only have a dislocated shoulder and a broken arm and the other arm twisted up and my legs bruises everywhere. I'm ok" Erica said like her injuries were injuries everyone gets all the time.

"Once we get back we're looking at them" I said.

"Ugh...why do you have to be so caring" Erica laughed.

I laughed to" That's the whole point of being caring" I said. Erica looked at me and smiled. We were just standing there for a few seconds staring at each other.

"We have to get out" I said.

"Oh, yeah. Yeah" Erica responded. We both looked all over the place.

We heard a ticking. We changed our target to find the ticking source.

"Um... Ben you aren't going to like this. It's a bomb" Erica said" But that was very obvious.

No! No. I hate bombs. I dread the day they were made. I walked over to Erica.

She gave a screwdriver and we unscrewed the screws. I took the covering carefully off and set it next to us.

Erica looked into the bomb and pulled a few cords out. She then out some other random cords in.

"Ben in three seconds I need you to pull the tan cord. The one that I am holding right now" Erica said holding a tan cord. She let go.

I then pulled the cord. Erica pulled out smiling" I love defusing bombs" Erica exclaimed.

I just stood there. Erica leaned over and looked at me" Where's my Ben" She asked.

"Am I a property now" I asked smirking.

"Well no but you seem out of the zone which isn't much like you and you didn't freak out about the bomb" Erica stated.

"I know you will always make sure the bomb won't explode and I have been around bombs enough times" I said.

Erica saw something on the bomb and leaned forward. She grabbed her phone and took photos of all the parts of the bomb.

"We have a lead" Erica said.

"What" I asked.

Erica gave me the seriously you can't be that dumb face and run she said" This bomb is only made in Ireland "

I nodded. I looked around" We have to get out of here" I said.

She pointed up to a large bomb. 

Later she was standing on my shoulders getting up there. She grabbed on and she immediately fell as she pulled herself up. I caught her lightly in my arms.

"Your sure your arms are fine" I asked.

Erica nodded" Yeah" She replied.

I looked deep into her eyes" Erica! You are not fine. If you aren't functioning correctly there's something wrong with you and we all know it's your arms" I said.

Erica sad back down." I know. I know. But, I hate looking helpless or weak" Erica said. 

I sat next to her" You don't look helpless or weak. You got hurt and you have to deal with you can't always hide injuries. I don't think your weak or helpless" I said as I set my hand on hers. I looked into her eyes" There is something I know definitely about your personality. You are the strongest person I know. You are the most independent person in this world. You aren't helpless or weak"

"Thanks Ben" was well she replied with. I nodded and stood up.

For the next 30 minutes we kept trying ways to get out. We finally found one. We decided to use the rope and Erica stood on my shoulders and tied 1 of the ends of the rope to the vent. I slowly let her down.

She jumped onto my back and wrapped her legs tightly around me and used her arms lightly. 

I pulled myself onto the rope and started climbing as Erica's causally leaned her head on my back. I always get a warm feeling. It was nice.

I got to the vent and let Erica's climb in first.

The next thing I knew we were done with checking all the rooms except for the one we are looking in right now.

Erica bent down under the bed and pulled something from under the bed. She found a file.

"Ben come look" Erica said.

I went over and there was just a long list of people that I knew.

"Do you know all of these people" Erica asked.

"Yeah. But, why would Boomer want it" I asked.

"I don't know but let's put it in an evidence bag and bring it with us" Erica said as she pulled out a bag and out the files in. 

We left the room and once we got far enough we threw our white gloves in the cleaning trash bag.

Erica started looking drowsy.

I helped her up" I'm fine" Was all she said.

"You don't get tired" I said.

Erica nodded and we wnt into Catherine. Catherine came running towards Erica and took her from my arms.

"Oh darling what happened" Catherine asked.

Erica and I explained everything and showed evidence we found. Uncle Grant came out from the shower.

We repeated everything we told Catherine.

Catherine started packing.

"We're going to Ireland the first thing in the morning. We have no time to spare. Go take care of Erica"
