Poi Redux Season 309-5 Chapter 9

I do not own POI but the mistakes belong to me. Enjoy!

Dani Silva had been cleared of all charges against her! John hung up a call from Iris as he entered the subway. Hopefully he managed to pacify Dr. Campbell at least for the moment. He was pensive hoping he would get the opportunity to ask Finch about Joss. Finch had been busy cracking the encryption on the flash drive Ortiz had stolen for Dominic only to find out who the next number was. Carl Elias. Personally John he would have liked nothing more than to step back and let Elias and Dominic destroy one another, but then he thought about Joss how she had saved him from HR, she was the one who risked everything putting her life and career on the line, the one who deemed his life worth saving. John heaved a sigh knowing what he had to do and promptly left to find Elias.


Fusco was pissed. He was called out to a homicide, his so called partner Riley was nowhere to be found and he wasn't in the mood for making any excuses for him. It was early morning the sun wasn't up yet and he was in need of a strong cup of coffee. A uniformed officer greeted him as he approached the scene. "What we got?"

"The Vics are both males, it's pretty messy in there." The officer held up the tape to let Fusco pass. "Ah geez," Fusco grimaced as he took in the scene, there was blood everywhere. "You got a cause of death yet?" He asked the coroner.

"Won't say for sure yet, but I did manage to lift a couple sets of fingerprints." The buxom, redhead offered. "This may be solved before you get back to the precinct." She offered him an encouraging smile.

Lionel huffed at her and continued to look around. "Its days like this I really miss you partner." He muttered to himself and continued his investigation.


She's experiencing pain" Martine's aggravated presence swept into the war room where it appeared Greer was involved in yet another intense conversation with Samaritan, "What?" Greer turned toward her stone faced.

"She's hiding it, but she is experiencing pain. Is she resisting the implant?" Her eyes searching Greer's for answer. HER. RESISTANCE. IS. FUTILE. The words flashed across Samaritan's monitor.

"I agree dear Samaritan."

"Do we pull her?"

"Not Just yet, and as to our other matter?" Greer searching her face.

"We'll engage very soon." A slight smile passed over her lips at the thought of an encounter with Samaritan's enemy.

"Continue to take Jocelyn into the field we will continue to monitor the implant's output and make the necessary adjustments."

Martine exited the room angrier than when she entered.

Joss changed out of the blood spattered clothes. The scene in the bar flashed thru her mind. "Please don't kill me!" The man cried out as bullets from the gun she fired ripped into his body. She saw the blood splatter her clothes the spray filling the air as he fell back. She grabbed her forehead as the scene began to play over in her mind "Jocelyn?" The sound of her name pulled he into the moment. She turned to see Jeremy looking at her curiously, "are you alright?"

He had heard they were back at the facility. He was trying to keep his distance from her because of Martine's suspicion but he needed to see her. He was drawn to her beauty, to the fight she put into resisting Samaritan's control. As he entered the locker room he saw her holding her forehead, he knew he had to help her.

This was one of the few times Joss was actually glad to see Lambert. Her head had been pounding since she and Martine left the dive bar and the more the memories flashed through her mind the pain increased. "Jocelyn, are you alright?" he moved forward to steady her. Then more memories flashed thru her mind and she became dizzy and lost her footing, Jeremy's strong arms embraced her and held her to him. She looked up at him, her eyes filled with confusion and fear "I killed them" she whispered then she buried her face in his chest. It was that moment Martine came into the locker room.

The distain was evident in her eyes she hated being saddled with Samaritan's latest experiment and now here Lambert was attracted to it.

Martine glared at them, they were oblivious to her presence. She cleared her throat. Joss quickly found her footing and pushed Jeremy away, he grasped her shoulders looking deeply in her eyes checking if she really was alright. "Remember you are not alone." She stared into his eyes the familiarity of his statement washing over her. She acknowledged him silently and let him know that she was okay and Jeremy moved to leave, Martine kept her eyes firmly on Joss stone faced as Lambert left the room, she would definitely use this attraction to her advantage. Martine smirked at Joss as she began to formulate a plan to use against Lambert. "Suit up we have a rendezvous with Nadia." She smiled at Joss.


Nadia's location was tracked by the Angler app on her phone to this department store. Martine had brought Zachary with them to keep tabs on Carter, Martine would go in alone to engage the target. "Stay here, if I need backup I'll signal you." Martine entered the front doors and began a visual scan. She sent a chat request to Nadia's Angler profile to make contact. Chat request denied was the response. She continued her search.

Ugh another customer from hell! This woman was really testing Shaw's self-control. All she wanted was to be left alone. Her phone had been buzzing all morning with chat request from Romeo. Now all she could do was try to appease this woman with free eyeliner because she had insulted without thinking. What else could go wrong today? She asked herself.

Martine continued to surveille the sales floor. Chat request denied flashed across the screen of her phone. "Is target present?"

NEGATIVE was Samaritan's response. Martine checked the visual update of the image from the storage facility. She continued to look around the sales floor, a woman walked away from one of counters and that is when her target came into view.

Shaw put more makeup in the display case and when she looked up she locked eyes with the woman that wanted her, Finch, Reese and Root dead.


A/N: I just had to make a reference to Star Trek in honor of their 50th lol
