After being found adrift offshore the Republic of Malta, in the Mediterranean Sea, Parker was rescued with many questions in his mind.

He was feeling happy, of course, but he was also feeling completely confused over Raymond's attitudes.

He left the hospital after three days and the doctor said he needed to rest for at least three weeks before returning to his position in the B.S.A.A.

Chris and Jill visited him at the hospital. Apparently they had solved their personal issues. although Jill never told him she had troubles with Chris, Parker knew there was something going on as soon as O'Brian suggested him as Jill's new partner. For Parker, it was a very nice experience working with her. Jill was a very good professional, very focused on her job. Besides that she was a nice friend, sometimes even funny. Chris, however, was more serious. They never had a chance to work together on a mission, but Parker knew he was simply one of the best SOA, maybe the best one.

"I've heard O'Brian is now an advisor. - he told them during their visit."

"But he will always be around." Jill said "No way he could leave us definitely. Things just changed a little."

"Yeah, it doesn't matter what people say, he did a nice job on getting both Morgan and... argh... Jessica." Chris said angrily.

"Why calling her a rat didn't surprise me" Jill rolled her eyes.

"I agree. Well... By the way, it seems I've lost my partner" Parker laughed.

"Think it was just a borrowing" Chris laughed back.

Parker nodded.

"Anyway. I always knew it was going to happen. You'd better define your relationship soon guys, before things get any harder. Jessica was..."

Parker stopped talking when he realised Chris and Jill looked at each other embarrassed. As the silence took the room and he noticed it was a very strange situation, he tried to fix it.

"I mean partnership. You know, you have to keep it up."

Jill nodded and smiled.

"What are your plans from now on?"

"Well, now that I am on vacation I think it's time to memorize that genesis manual."

"Good luck with that"Chris looked at Parker with his thumbs up.

"Chris, let's get going. We still need to finish our reports on the Zenobia mission."

"Oh! I hate that part, good luck for you guys. Lucky me I'm on vacation" he laughed.

"That's ok. It's not my favorite part either. But since I have Jill to help me and some mexican food on the way, this night won't be that bad."

Parker narrowed his eyes.

"I see..." Parker smirked.

Some hours had passed since Jill and Chris left the hospital, and so did Parker. Parker was already at home, sitting on his armchair in front of the TV eating some popcorn. The movie Constantine was on.

Parker was not a big fan of movies like that but since he was kind of borred after changing from channel to channel, he decided to stop there for a while.

"C'mon. I'm not in the mood for cartoons right now but I don't know if I like those demons".

Parker thought he heard something in his bedroom. He soon thought it was just his imagination. He was alone in there after that horrible death experience on the Queen Zenobia and looking at demons. Her mind was probably way too confused and scared.

"I prefer to watch Sandra Bullock on that Miss Congeniality 2, let's see at what time that's going to be on" he talked to himself again.

Now Parker didn't hear anything, but he felt he was not alone in there. He looked around but he could see nothing, then he decided to investigate his apartment to make sure it was just his imagination so he could focus on the movie.

Parker got her crutches and stood up. Lucky him his apartment was a small one. He walked slowly to the kitchen but there was nothing in there, so he went towards his bedroom.

He remembered he left the window ajar. But it was open now and there was no wind. It was going to be really difficult for Parker to look under the bed, so he just sat and jumped on it. He knew nobody could survive his weight and he laughed about it. There was definitely nobody under it.

It occurred to Parker that his bedroom curtains were large and long enough to hide someone perfectly. He would never realise there was someone behind it unless he tried to. So he focused on analysing it. As it would be not possible to see someone feet, he tried to find out some different movement.

At a certain point he noticed there was a softly breathing movement. He stood up on his crutches again and approached it. He lifted one of his arms, hitting the person with his crutches.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

"You show your face! Otherwise I'm gonna shoot you" Parker screamed.

"No! Wait!"

"You?" Parker looked surprised when the man came out from behind the curtains.

"That's not a good way to greet your visitors"

"C'mon Raymond. You didn't act like one."

"I tried to leave before I got caught, but you were faster"

"Bullshit! Considering your skills, I'm sure you wanted to get caught."

"Maybe" Raymond smiled at Parker sarcastically.

"Now cut it off! What are you looking for?"

"I just wanted to know how you've been since you were hurt?"

"Well, I'm really thankful you saved me, but since you left me offshore, why the hell are you worried now?"

"I'm sorry I left you there. I had to" Raymond became serious.

"That's ok. I'm no complaining."

"But tell me how are you?"

"I'm ok. I'm going to be fine soon. Thanks for asking".

"Ok, then. Time to leave." Raymond said approaching Parker.

"Why are you leaving?"

Raymond got closer to Parker's neck and sighed.

"See you, Parker" he said jumping from the window.

Parker tried to look outside but it was too dark to see where he had gone. He nodded confused. Raymond was always like that. Even when he was only a cadet.

Parker closed the window and tried to change his thoughts. He could finally concentrate on his movie now that he was totally alone. When he was leaving his bedroom he saw a piece of paper on his bedside table. He got it and unfold it.

'Thanks for the borrowing. 1691188987'

"What the...?" Parker went towards his closet and saw his Genesis was not there.

"Damn it Raymond! I kill you"
