Jesse watched the small pickpocket make her way down the subway car. The girl couldn't be much older than fifteen. But the most surprising thing about the girl was the way she was dressed. Black shiney shoes with knee high white socks. A black, red and white plaid school girl skirt that was just past her knees and a white blouse with a black and red school jacket. To Jesse the girl had no reason for doing what she was doing. if she went to a private school and had her dark brown hair done to the nine with light honey highlights she probably was carrying more money in her own wallet than she had stolen.

The girl stopped not to far from Jesse and began to twirl her hair around one dainty finger with its perfect manicured nail. Not a single one of her victims had noticed they had just been robbed, which meant the girl had amazing talent. He should know talent, he had been doing the same thing since he was ten.

As the train made it to its destination the girl headed for the door. Jesse quickly followed her. his curiosity was getting the best of him. He had to know where this girl came from and why she was doing what she was. What he saw surprised him more than anything he had seen her do. Four blocks from where she lived the girl quickly changed into street clothes and made her way to her low rent apartment building. Jesse smirked. The girl was very talented.

For a week Jesse tailed the girl. He didn't care that he was late for school the whole week or skipped his last class. He wanted to know everything about this girl.

He learned that she had an older brother who was in the police academy and was at least twenty one. She had a mother that was a nurse and worked most of the time and a father that Jesse had only seen once.

Everything he had seen still had him curious. And the girl yet again surprised him as she came onto the subway and took a seat next to him.

"Cambree." She said holding her hand out to him.

Jesse smirked and shook her hand. "Jesse."

Cambree nodded, crossed her arms and leaned back in her seat. She looked around the subway car then nodded to a well dressed woman in a fur vest. Jesse smirked. He looked around then got to his feet. He walked passed the woman and took a seat on the other end of the car. At the next stop he got off the subway and smiled when he saw Cambree did as well.

"Chicken. " Cambree teased and turned to walk away. Jesse grabbed her arm and produced a clutch from his pocket. "Impressive. Do you do any more tricks?"

Jesse tossed the clutch over his shoulder and took her hand in his as he led her away from the subway.

XOXO

Cambree stood behind the jewelry counter as a well off couple looked at engagement rings. every so often the girl would point at a ring and Cambree would bring it out for the girl to try on. She knew she was lucky to have such a job at twenty, but on days as slow as this one she wished she was somewhere else. Some where with a beach and white sand.

"This one." The girl said pulling Cambree out of her daydream. Cambree smiled her best fake smile and got the couple ready to purchase their ring of commitment. She was just getting the paper work finished when their was a noise in the back. Cambree excused herself and went to check on her coworker Sara. She had slipped out the back for a cigarette and some times the girl forgot to leave a crack in the door and would lock herself out. As she headed back she froze at the scene. there was now a whole in the wall from the empty building next door and four men in all black and ski masks stood before her with Sara in one of their grasps. They took out the guard and brought him to the front counter were thet had forced the happy couple to the floor as well.

"To the ground!" One of the men demanded as he got into her face. She could hear Sara panicking in the back of the stoor.

"Please, let Sara come up here with me." Cambree begged. The man pointed his gun in her face.

"Cambree! " Sara screamed as she began to sob heavily. The man seemed to struggle for a moment then put his gun down.

"Bring the girl up here. We have a volunteer. " The man said with almost a smile on his face. One of the men from the back brought Sara up front. He pushed her to the ground and Cambree went to the girls side.

"You do as they say Sara and they won't hurt you." Cambree said taking the girls face in her hands and making her look up. "Try to stay calm all of you."

One of the robbers grabbed her by her arm and pulled her to her feet. She didn't even struggle.

"No need to be so gruff. I'm cooperating. " Cambree said taking her arm out of the mans grasp. "I hope my brother nails you too the wall when your cought though."

"Keep walking, less talking." One of the men in the back demanded with a accent she couldn't quite figure out. Two men stayed up front while the other two gathered all the diamonds and money from the safe in the back. They took Cambree back up front and tied her up next to the guard.

"Move out boys." one of the robbers demanded after Cambree was tied up tight. As they headed back out the back the security guard got his hands free. He quickly got his feet untied. He headed after the robbers leaving the other victims to wonder what was going on as the gunshots rang out.

"Cambree!" She hadn't even noticed it was all over till she heard her brother call out her name. After the gun shots she blocked it all out. She hadn't even noticed she had been untied.

At once Cambree got to her feet and ran into her brother's arms. The tears she had been holding back through the whole robbery couldn't be held any more as she sobbed into her brother's shirt.

"We'll get them Camy." Her brother promised as he held her tightly. "Did they hurt you?"

Cambree shook her head. she stepped away from her brother and looked around. "Was any one hurt? I remember gunshots."

Her brother nodded. "One of the robbers was shot. The Emts are about to take him."

"I want to see his face." Cambree demanded. she walked up to the EMT and pulled him aside so she could see the face of the robber who had scared the hell out of her. She looked down at his face and froze. She had seen him before.

XOXO

Jake walked up to his brother and casually sat down next to him. Jesse had been watching his phone for the past half hour and seemed to be getting a little nervous.

"What's on your mind Jesse?" Jake asked and Jesse shrugged in reply. "Is it girl troubles?"

"Bree. I haven't heard from her in a while. its not like her." Jesse replied. "She answered her phone once. I must have woke her. The moment I said something she hung up man. this ain't like her."

Jake smirked. "Well did you piss her off or something? "

Jesse glared his brother down. "This is Cambree we are talking about Jake. It takes a whole lot to rattle that girl."

"Wait... What's her name?" Jake asked and Jesse rolled his eyes.

"Cambree. The same name she's had since I met her." Jesse replied. Jake got to his feet and ignored his brother calling after him. He walked up to the vip lounge where the rest of his friends were waiting.

"Where did Ghost say he heard about this jewelry store?" Jake asked running a nervous hand down his face.

"Don't think he did." G said giving the younger man a concerned look. "What's going on Jake?"

"Jesse's little friend. Do any of you remember her name?" Jake asked. The men shrugged.

"What is this all about Jake?" John asked.

Jake took a deep breath and took a seat. "Does the name Cambree ring any bells from the job?"

"Yeah the girl in the store was named... He wouldn't have." A.J. said putting two and two together. "She's seen all our faces. Heard all of our voices. He wouldn't have done something so stupid."

"Her brother is LAPD." John said getting a little on edge. "If she realized who any of us are, or saw Ghost we are screwed."

"Bree!" they heard Jesse yell out and the sound of a chair being knocked over. "Where the hell have you been?"

"On lock down at my brother's place." The girl said with a giggle. "Now put me down Jesse. I can walk on my own two feet."

G looked around at his uneasy friends. "Lets just feel the girl out before we doc anything drastic. Like John said. Her brother is a cop."

As the bar opened and the customers began to poor in Jesse and Cambree took their normal spot in the very back of the bar. Every so often one of the guys would walk dow to the bar and scope the girl out. She didn't seem to be uneasy on being in the same building as them. But she had also been very cool and collected at the jewelry store. Even when Ghost had a gun in her face.

A.J. walked up to the bar and was surprised to see Jesse sitting by himself. He had just seen Cambree next to him only seconds before. Then what seemed like a blink of an eye she was sitting next to Jesse once again. A.J. just shrugged it off as being paranoia and headed back to the vip lounge. but whay happened next none of the men saw it coming. They were all enjoying the night when they all heard a small noise behind them. They turned to see Cambree leaned up against the railings with a smirk on her face.

"Before any of you make a hasty move, I come in peace." Cambree said then produced a wallet from her bra. She walked up to A.J. and sat it down in front of him. "We all have secrets of our own. I commend you on your technique."

Cambree then walked back down the stairs. A.J. took the wallet with a huge smile on his face. He looked it over and placed it back into his back pocket and fastened the button.

"The girl has talent of her own." A.J. said still smiling. "Hadn't felt a thing. Not a tug, or the slip of the damn thing."

John looked over at Jake. "Bring them up."

Jake nodded and headed down stairs. a few minutes later her reappeared with Jesse and Cambree following behind him.

"You have talent young one." G said eying the young girl with suspicion. "Now Jesse, why don't you tell us how you really met this girl."

Jesse shrugged and took a seat next to his brother. "On the subway when I was fifteen. She was dressed in a private school uniform. watched her pickpocket at least seven people before she got of the subway. "

"Then you stalked me for a week." Cambree said with a smirk. "Surprise the hell out of him when I sat next to him one day and introduced myself. Been partners in crime ever since. He picked the target, I did the dirt work. My brother calls it my uncontrollable impulse. I can't go anywhere with out picking up a little something."

"When did you realize who we were?" John asked and Cambree smirked once again.

"I saw your friend get taken in the stretcher. But didn't put two and two together till I saw the four of you down coming down to the bar tonight." Cambree sat down on the arm rest of A.J.'s chair and toom his hat then placed it on her ow head. "You boys should be more careful. A girl like me sees things like out of place character in people. I have never seen you boys order drinks from the bar. Men like you have them brought to them."

Jesse smirked. "I told you this girl was something. She's smart."

"Smart with sticky fingers. " A.J. said taking his hat back. "That's nothing but trouble."

Cambree shrugged in response. "I've only been caught once and thay was by my own brother. sent me to juvie for six months to try and teach me a leason... I didn't learn. Well not the lesson he wanted me to learn any way."

Jesse chuckled. "I bet John will remember that month where there were cars taken from garages while the owners were in their homes sleeping? fee days later they would find the car back in its place. safe and sound."

John nodded. "Put a lot of heat on me and a few friends that month."

Jesse smirked and pointed at Cambree. "She didn't even know how to drive a manual before she went in. Few weeks after she got out she was taking every car that turned her on."

Cambree blushed at that comment and glared over at Jesse. "Any girl with a little class can appreciate a nice fast car. Some times I even returned them in better shape than I took them. Had a beautiful mint condition 67 chevy only 3000 miles piled high with trash and porno magazines. That jerk didn't deserve a beauty like that."

"You are definitely one of a kind." A.J. said with a smirk.

"Not at all." Cambree said with a wink towards Jesse. "I just know how to entertain an audience."

G laughed. "Was any of that story true?"

Cambree shrugged. "My brother did send me to juvie. And I do like the sight of hot cars. But I have never in my life driven a stick."
