Part 1

Aster was pouring a glass for both him and his date when there was a knock on the door.

"Well that was awfully quick." he noted. The Chinese takeout place down the street usually took an additional 15 minutes to be delivered.

"My stomach's not complaining." Jack told his, accepting his drink with a slight smirk. Aster couldn't help grinning back.

"I'll just go and get the food, and then we can eat."

"Do you want me to go ahead and set the table?"

Looking back from the doorway of the flat, Aster couldn't help the small grimace at the mess his roommate had created in the kitchen. Jack was quick to agree when he suggested using tray tables instead.

He jogged down the short flight of stairs and walked passed Mrs. Katherine's door, careful not to make too much noise. It was late and the woman had better ears than a rabbit, he'd swear. Opening the door out onto Baker Street, Aster went to ask how much he owed for the food only for the man, who was most certainly not their usually delivery boy to speak first.

"Do you have it?"

"I'm sorry?"

"Have you found the treasure?!"

It was then that he noticed that the hooded figure on his doorstep wasn't carrying any bags.

"I think..I think you've got the wrong place." He tried to back away and shut the door, but he wasn't expecting the figure to suddenly lash out.

"Ugh!" Aster's unconscious form quickly crumpled to the ground.

Jack finished laying out two sets of cutlery on the trays in front of the living room couch when the door swung open on its hinge. But when he turned around to greet Aster he was shocked to find not one, but several strange men barging into the apartment.

Jack fled instinctively toward the stairs leading up to the bedrooms, but he barely made it three steps when he was grabbed from behind. A gloved hand cut off his screams.

"Silence, boy!" One waved a gun in his face.

Jack quickly stopped struggling.

"Where is it? Where is the pin?" The man demanded. Jack shook his head, no idea what he was talking about.

"Don't try to lie to us! We saw you there with Mr. St. North at the show tonight! We know you are working with him!"

Jack tried to deny the accusations, but the hand on his face only allowed him to make muffled grunts.

A third invader intervened, "It does not appear that he knows anything about the treasure. I believe he is being truthful." The gunman seemed like he was going to argue further, but eventually agreed with his colleague's assessment.

"Very well, we won't kill you, for now." Jack breathed a sigh of relief as the barrel was no longer pointed at his head. "However, you might still be of some use to us. Bind him. We will take both of them with us."

-Both?! Aster!-

The men made quick work of tying his hands together in front of him. One of them managed to produce a cloth which was then pulled tightly between Jack's teeth, gagging him.

He was then lead down the stairs and out onto Baker St. where a black van was already waiting. Jack was roughly shoved to the floor the vehicle alongside Aster's also bound and prone figure.
