Bethany's walk home was long, her feet dragging over the concrete. She passed the expensive boutiques and cafes that had once felt like second nature to her yet again, but now they only mocked her. They were so out of reach, it was more like it was part of a world she had been exiled from. She had burned bridges to go back there as she never imagined in her heart that it could ever burn so quickly, and now she had to pay the price. When she reached the apartment, she hesitated at the door. Would Troy still be inside, or had he given up on her, packed his things, and left? The thought of facing him, of hearing more of his disappointment, made her stomach turn, but there was no avoiding it. She couldn’t run anymore. Bethany pushed open the door and stepped inside. The apartment was very quiet, the emptiness was suffocating. Her heart sank as she noticed that Troy's things were still here, his jacket draped over the back of a chair, his shoes by the door but he was nowhere to be

"That was kinda quicker than I expected." Mike said. "Thank goodness!" Joe said and continues, "Mike you tell him whatever you need to tell him to go through with this alright?" "I'll see what I can do about it." Mike replied. "Hey Mike." Garry said as he walks in towards them. "Hey Garry." Mike replied and continues. "How are you holding up?" "It was hard to see them go Mike." Garry said and continues. "But I think I'm gonna be fine." "That's good to know because we have a lot on our shoulders right now." Mike said. "Really, what's wrong?" Garry asked. "Actually this is all about making us filth
"So what exactly is the plan Mike? How do we make our way into the bank without getting caught?" Joe asked. "I've been studying that bank’s structure for a while now and I discovered, that the elevator down stairs is some how connected to where the black box is hidden." Mike replied. "I don't understand." Joe said. "There is nothing to understand Joe, all we need is to make sure we stay at the top of the elevator and not inside the elevator." Mike replied. "And how the hell are we supposed to do that amidst security guards?" Garry asked. "I don't know yet Garry." Mike replied and continues. "I guess is something we will just have to find out." "Mike, can I talk to you for a moment?" Garry asked. "Yeah, sure." Mike replied as they both walked away from Joe. **** Flynn was panting heavily as he picks up his phone to make an immediate call.

"I think we have a problem Mike." Natalie said. "What wrong?" Mike asked. "There's a camera in the elevator Mike" Natalie replied. "A camera?" Mike asked. "Yes Mike." Natalie replied and continues, "What am I gonna
"Make it quick Sunny, I'm running out of time here." The Fox said to the Hacker. "Yes boss." Sunny replied and continued with his work. The Fox grabs hold of one of his men who introduced Sunny to him in order to have a word with him. "Are you sure this guy has any idea of what he is doing?" The Fox asked. "Of course he does boss." He replied and continues. "We just need to be a little more patient with him." "Time is what I don't have, you know that right?". The Fox asked. "Yes I do boss.
