Tuesday morning started like a normal work day for Winston he arrived at the office at quarter to nine. He was feeling good today their last client had actually paid them this time unlike so of the charity work that his partner Chance likes doing. He keeps telling Chance that it takes revenue to run a business, but Chance still trying to find redemption for his past life sins. Guerrero walks in almost on Winston heels.
"Dudes I think we have a problem."
"What do you mean you think. Either we have a problem or we don't." Winston says, "We are not in the business of thinking we have a problem."
Guerrero just looks at Winston and says "Ok dude we have a problem. Is that better?"
"Guerrero what do you have?" Chance asked as he jumps up from his seat.
"You remember that Russian Embassy business awhile back with agent whats her name that help us."
"You mean Emma?" Chance replies.
"I think he means Special FBI Agent Emma Barnes." Winston says.
"Yep dude her. Word is out on the street that the Russians are looking for payback for what happen to that head of security guy."
"Raven shot Volkov and he shot Raven back. There is no payback, they killed each other." Winston said.
"Dude that's not the official word, that FBI Agent's reports have holes in it because she had no witnesses, so the word is Volkov brother is looking to get her for his brother's death."
"Guys we have to find Emma and protect her until we can find Volkov's brother." Chance says.
"You forget one thing, Emma is already looking for you trying to tie you into the whole Embassy affair." Said Winston.
"Ok, well we will just have to be careful and convince her that she needs me."
"Needs you? You mean that she needs us to protect her?"
"That's what I said." Replies Chance with a smirk on his face.
Downtown is busier than normal today with the arrival of the Prince of Balto, a now independent country that once was under the rule of the Soviet Union. Since the prince's plane had landed security has been tighter around him than the President. There had been multiple threats against his life now that his small country is free. Threats from outside and inside his own government has materialized as the young prince is coming to terms that there is a large price for freedom and people do not accept change very well. In the back seat of an armored car sitting with him is the Deputy Director of the West Coast Division of the CIA and on loan from the FBI Special Agent Emma Barnes.
"I appreciate your kindness and attention but I do not think this all this security is needed." Said Prince Danube.
"Prince Danube I assure you it is very necessary with the amounts of threats we have received during your visit here." Replied Deputy Director Morgan.
"I know you mean well but I am sure my personal bodyguards are capable of handling anything that comes up."
"Sir under normal circumstances that might be true, but we are not sure where this threat is originated from."
"Excuse me Prince my name is Special Agent Emma Barnes and I have some experience dealing with Russia spies and I will not leave your side until this crisis is over."
Before the prince can response an explosion rocks the car and sends it into a parked truck. Agent Barnes asked the prince and the deputy director if they were all right. Then she checked the driver he was dead, one of the prince bodyguards stagger out of the car, and he is cut down by a bullet in front of Agent Barnes as she yells back at the prince to stay down. There are two mask men advancing on the down car, keeping Barnes pen down in a crossfire. She tries to sneak a peek at the attackers but is almost shot for her efforts. The two men are almost on top of her position and she wonders where is her backup. Then she hears two gunshots from a different caliber firearm than her attackers were using. She slowly stands up and sees both gunmen on the ground. She turns and sees a single individual walking towards her with a smirk on his face.
"Of all the places to see you again this would be the last place I expected Christopher Chance to show up again."
