George, Alanna, and Control left the building. Alanna started walking off not really going one way. George and Control exchanged looks with which other then Control turned to go the opposite direction as his granddaughter knowing that George would take care of her for the time being. George turned and followed Alanna he could tell from how slow she was walking that it was torture for her to walk away from her one true home. Alanna walked away silent as a tomb not looking back at the building that had been her home for close to twenty years after WWII and her time in the middle east. Alanna did not even know she had tears slipping down her cheeks she was use to being silent with all her emotions. Alanna would not be joining her grandfather in the apartment he had in Kensington, England she would go to her place then got to the look out that was the apartment that her and George had rented under a different name as a couple. George knew that Alanna was angry and frighten at some of the things going on.

Control died only about six months after they were all forced out of the circus. George and Alanna buried him in a place only they knew about it was owned by the Black family it was called Grimshadow cemetery. They had both left the graveyard haunted by the fact they had to break the news to several people about Control death.

Peter Guillam came up to George house he knew that more then likely George and Alanna were not there or so he thought. He parked his car outside the house getting out to knock on the door. George and Alanna had indeed returned to his two story house. They had only been there a week or so they both need a little more space then the tiny apartment that was in a shared name of theirs. Peter Guillam knocked on the door soft worried that the neighbors would hear him. George and Alanna head turned at the sound of the knock. George faced the painting. Alanna got up and answered the door. Less then ten minutes later they were dressed and in Guillam car traveling across London to Lacon house on the other side of town.

"I was sorry to hear about control" Guillam said looking a little worried about something.

"He was old" Alanna said keeping her eyes down knowing that this meet with Lacon was not going to go well for her.

They arrive at Lacon house in less then half a hour. Alanna had her brief case with that book she had taken from the circus when they left she had all sorts of information on the circus. George did not even bother speaking up he knew that Alanna would handle it. Alanna left the case in car carrying only the book. Lacon greeted them at the door.

"Hello, George, Alanna" he said looking them over he wonder what was the matter.

"Lacon" George said softly to him in greeting.

"Lacon" Alanna said just as softly to him in greeting.

Guillam remain back away from there talking to a person that was acting as guard for Lacon at this point in time. Lacon led George and Alanna to his office. Lacon moved around his desk sitting down in a chair. Alanna took the chair close to the door knowing she would have to get up again when George asked her to bring him the book she had in her hands. George sat down in the chair across from Lacon.

"He said there a mole" Lacon was busy with a cigarette in his hand. "Right at the top of the circus. That he been there for years" he said as he continued to play with his cigarette. "But it mean you both rather well placed to look into this matter now doesn't it. Outside the family" he said finally getting the lighter he had to work and lighting his cigarette.

"I'm retired, Oliver. Aly is retired. You fired us" George said quietly to Lacon trying to sound happy even if it hurt to think of the fact he and Alanna had buried one of his few friends in the ground personally.

"The thing is sometime ago, before control died, he came to me with a similar suggestion" Lacon puzzled for a minute to take a breath continued. "That there is a mole. He never mentioned his suspicious to you both" he asked looking a little surprised at there answers.

"No" George said to Lacon turn his head a little to look at Alanna sitting in the chair close to the door.

Alanna only shook her head and shrugged. Lacon saw the movement and knew that Control even suspected his own grandchild the woman he had train sense she was small. George could tell that Lacon was very surprised at there reactions.

"Oh, I just thought that, as you and Black were his people, so to speak" he said to George looking surprised at their behavior and actions.

"What did you say to him" George asked getting a little worried about Lacon comments.

"Well, I'm afraid I thought his paranoia rather got the better of him and he was going to pull his whole house down. That bloody mess in Budapest" Lacon said to them.

George and Alanna both blow out a breath of air as if they had been struck by Lacon. Lacon was shocked at there reaction.

"Damn it, George, Alanna! It's your generation, your legacy. I would thought if there any truth in this, then you want to..." he said shifted a little on his feet.

"I'll keep Peter, an Alanna. And there a retired Special Branch man, Mendel. I should like to have him as well" George said softly he never raised his voice even at Alanna or Control no matter how angry he was. He remained calm to all appearances.

"George, I want Esterhase, Connie, and Jerry Westerby" Alanna said softly she had learned that when dealing with the political side of thing it was better to speak softly.

"Esterhase" George was confused at the request. "Because he own his career to my one of my relatives. It is time it called in" Alanna said not at all happy with Esterhase she planned on dealing with him very soon.

Lacon nodded at there request he knew why they wanted the other five by why want a traitor as well. Alleline had told him what Alanna had called Esterhase when they were first forced out of office. Lacon wonder why she wanted him to remain at the circus at all.
