Lisbon had got the order from Hightower when she entered her office. The only information she had been given was that the whole team was required to go to London on a flight that day for a minimum of a week. When she tried to get out of it she was told that the whole team would make that flight or else. She didn't even know who she was going to be working for. Sighing, Lisbon went to tell her team. She knew that one person would definatly cause trouble in any way he could.

Patrick was lying on the couch when Lisbon walked in. 'not interested' he called to her when the door closed. She stood and stared at him. 'I don't care if you're interested or not.' the rest of the team looked at them, recently the consultant had been getting more and more annoying. It did make for a laugh from time to time but the look on the bosses face showed that she really didn't want to deal with his antics today. 'what were you about to say, Lisbon?' Cho asked. She turned to the rest of the team.

'we've all been called on to go to London. I have no idea who by or why but we have. Our flight leads tonight and the whole team is 'required' that includes you, Jane' she said, turning back to shoot an unimpressed look at the man in question. He put his hands up in surrender 'you don't have to worry about me Lisbon, I'd much rather go of my own accord than be captured by some British secret agent squad' Rigsby raised and eyebrow and was about to question but Lisbon beat him to it. 'what on earth are you talking about, Jane. You better tell me what you know or so help me-'

'I don't know anything about it. I'm just guessing.' he paused and looked at the team who gave a silent demand for him to continue. 'well, Hightower wouldn't send us if there was no other way around it. We're going to London which is where the headquarters for the British military intelligence is based and you quoted that we were required. We weren't given a choice in the matter so someone very important. Someone very important who might just be in control of a very large organisation which as the skill and equipment to abduct people without drawing attention to themselves. I don't know about the rest of you but I'm not taking any chances' the room was filled with shocked faces. Cho managed to maintain his steady expression but his mind whirred. Surely no one would have that kind of power. They couldn't have. but the feeling in his gut told him the exact opposite. He stood up 'I'm going to start packing then' he turned and left the building quickly followed by the other four, the last being Patrick. The consultant smirked to himself. He'd never been to England before.


Lisbon hoped that she never had to sit in a plane with that man ever again. The flight had started out ok but less than an hour in Patrick was up to his old tricks. The flight attendants were refusing to serve him after he had found something about each one of them to put out in the open. The whole team were in First class, something that most of them had never done before, yet Lisbon couldn't relax. She found herself going back to what Jane had said about the person they might be working for. She liked to think that the team kept no secrets, she knew it was an absolute lie especially were Jane was concerned, but they at least kept the rest informed with the important things. Mostly. The thought that her team were flying to England to work for a person or persons unknown was unnerving. The fact that they were summoned for in the way that someone would call a dog was just disturbing. But they didn't really have a choice in the matter, if the consultant was right anyway, so she decided she might as well stop worrying about it. Her train of thought was broken by yet another sound of commotion coming from the consultants area. She groaned and got up to apologise for what ever it was that he had done this time. Sometimes she just didn't know why she bothered.
