"I am invincible, I am unbreakable

Unstoppable, Unshakable

They knock me down I get up again"

Music blasted through out the speakers of the casino as I strolled around my feet almost carried by the beat of the music. It's catchy especially when you are a boxer. The whole room seemed to be moving along to it's electric spark, neon lights twirling blaring out the names of the games encouraging the guests to blow their life savings on their names.

Moving around the three levels of the newly built casino I checked in once again with the accordance of my whole team. At the blackjack table just a few yards away from my current position by the neon streaming multi colored water fountain was Joseph McG McGuire flashing his money curiosity of the U.S government. A nod in his direction assured me that while he was enjoying dropping thousands of $$ since it wasn't his money he was also still 100% focused on the mission his eyes still on his target tango one Hijame Satu the young man was looking sharp in his Gucci suit his arm wrapped around a beautiful Korean girl who couldn't be any older than 16.

McGuire was also eyeing the lady dressed in the tiny sparkly black dress now inching by him I left knowing that he could still maintain his visual. This palace was well a frigging palace built over the course of two years it had just opened two weeks ago.

It's creator/ owner was the target of our government Gaka Nakamura he was a multi-millionaire who had made his fortune by the time he was fifteen by inventing a new brand of alcohol. Now he's started opening casino's all over the world.

Gaka came under our radar last week when he entered US soil and kidnapped three teenagers which we believe are about to be sold into the sex trade industry. He's currently being watched by two members of my elite omega team. Ezekiel "Preach" Carter who's at the bar looking relaxed in his Armani suit as he sipped his beer I exchanged a small smile with my longest known team mate so happy he was doing better.

Ten months ago Preach almost died in an explosion back at our then home base of Turkey. He spent two weeks in a coma went through months of intense physical therapy. This was his first mission back.

Across the room was our newest team member Amir Al- Raisani who lowered his sunglasses to smile at a beautiful young women, god these guys just couldn't focus could they? Gaka was only inches away flirting with three young ladies.

Moving away from them I searched for our last team member our youngest but one of our most important members our sniper, Jasmine Jaz Khan she may be only twenty-three but she's as bright as fast as powerful and lethal as any bomb.

"I am the champion, you're gon' know my name
You can't hurt me now, I can't feel the pain
I was made for this, yeah, I was born to win
I am the champion"

Perfect lyrics for Jaz she's been through hell in the last year, yet she keeps rising and fighting. Tonight she is blending in with Gaka's women trying to get any Intel that may be useful to us. Where is she?

"Patricia do you have eyes on Jaz?"

"Yes Dalton we do second floor by the DJ station dancing with the ladies"

I head up the escalator spotting her finally as I get off one look at her and I am stopped god she is simply elegant. I am so use to seeing Jaz in her army greens her tactical gear even her down time clothes. It's rare we get to see each other dressed up that most times I forget she's even a women.

To me she's just Jaz my badass loud ass funny sarcastic sharp shooter who can take down men twice her size by just being her sweet ass ninja ass kicking self. Tonight however there is simply no mistaken her for anything but a women dressed in a floor length sheer trumpet mermaid train charmeuse dress the left side of her body was completely covered leaving the right leg exposed her beautiful full chest was barely left any room to expand with each breath.

Her chest was also covered in last years birthday gift to her from me a beautiful eye catching white gold choker encrusted in over a 1,000 diamonds in shapes of stars, moons surrounding a diamond shaped like a heart, gun.

We've worked together for almost four years now she's always 100% focused on missions with a fire that burns so passionately sometimes it's scary. She's fierce unafraid to take risks, she's fast on her feet, and in her mind, she's strong, she's charming which gives her an advantage us men don't have, she can get into places we can't. She never misses a shot or hesitates she's the one I trust most to have my back.

Well that was before Tehran Iran before she missed her shot, before I called her out in front of the team shamed her blamed her, belittled her, before she almost dropped a kid in her near miss. Before she made the choice to go in alone to that hotel to kill Jarif. Before she was captured, tortured and almost killed.

Since then Jaz hasn't been the same I thought the six month leave would help, I don't think it has she's lost weight she still isn't sleeping she barely eats, her laugh isn't the same that light I always loved in her eyes is a little dimmer. She shakes easier she flinches and startles easier, she gets distracted now.

Distractions cost us we can't afford them in our line of work we're the team that gets called in when there's no other team, we go in when there's no way out we get the job done or die trying.

No one is dying on my watch.
