Chapter 10

Auggie lay on the floor bleeding from where Annie had shot him. He out stretched his arms looking for his phone eventually finding it. He puts it up to his ear. "Joan, are you there."

"I'm here Auggie, help is on the way, you hold on, you hear me, you hear me."

"I hear you Joan, find Walker" he said as he dropped the phone.

"Auggie, Auggie!" Yelled Joan but there was no response.

"How far away are those EMT'S?" Said Joan to Barber

"Arriving on scene now." Said Barber

"Barber, I'm going to the hospital to see Auggie. I want a status update when I get back from the team assigned to track Walker."

Joan grabbed her coat and headed into the hospital.

Meanwhile in the ambulance

Auggie was being rushed to the hospital. "Sir, can you tell your name?" asked the paramedic

"Auggie" he replied

"Do you have any other injuries?"

"No" he replied

"Alright hold on, we're almost there, hold on." The paramedic got no response. Auggie wasn't breathing and there was no heart rate.

"Auggie? Auggie?" But again he got no response.

"He's got no pulse and he's not breathing. Commencing CPR."

The paramedic began CPR and continued until their arrival at the hospital. There was a doctor waiting for them when they arrived they unloaded Auggie and took him straight towards the OR, with the paramedics briefing the doctor along the way. 2 minutes later Auggie was being wheeled into the OR.

Meanwhile Joan was arriving at the hospital. She walked up to desk. "I'm looking for the status of Auggie Anderson; he was shot and bought in by ambulance."

The young girl typed on the computer. "Okay, he is in surgery right now. Take a seat. I'll let you know what his status is updated."

Joan stepped outside and called the DCS.

"What's the status on Auggie?" He asked.

"He's in surgery. We're not going to know anything for a while. What's the status on Walker?"

"She's still off the grid there's no sign of her."

"Alright well keep looking. She shot one of our own. I want her caught. Have we had any leads on establishing her real identity?"

"Not yet her legend is solid for all intents and purposes she is Annie Walker."

"Before Auggie was shot he I heard him same the name Eyal"

"You're thinking she's a Mossad plant."

"Well Eyal is a Hebrew name. Alright look for any links to Israel or the Mossad."

"Will do, I'll let you know what we find."

Meanwhile Annie was on her way to meet Eyal at the rendezvous point. She had dumped her car and picked up a new one that was pre-arranged for her incase her cover was blown. As Annie drove to meet Eyal things were running through her head. She actually felt bad about shooting Auggie. She had felt a connection to him. Since she joined the Mossad she had never had any personal connections to anyone. But she had allowed herself to connect. It was a bad thing, something that she knew would have consequences for Auggie, she knew that if she didn't shoot him, Eyal or someone else from Mossad would and they wouldn't miss. Annie continued on her journey to the rendezvous point.

Cut forward 4 hours

Joan had been sitting in the waiting room for hours waiting on an update when Auggie's surgeon's surgeon came out from behind the double doors.

"Family of August Anderson." Said the doctor.

Joan looked up and walked over to the doctor.

"The bullet hit him low in the chest. He's lucky it missed his heart. He's going to be alright, he just needs rest and recovery. He's in recovery if you'd like to see him, but just for a few minutes he needs to rest."

"Thank you doctor." Replied Joan

Joan followed the doctor into recovery and she took a seat next to Auggie's bedside."

Joan took his hand and squeezed. Auggie, its Joan. How are you doing?"

"I'm doing alright considering Walker just shot me."

"You're lucky you're not dead." Said Joan

"Any luck finding her yet?"

"No, she's gone off the grid."

"Can you tell what happened before you were shot?"

Well you heard most of it" Said Auggie as he winced through some pain."

"You alright Auggie, do you need the doctor?"

"I'm fine. I just don't recommend getting shot."

Joan smiled.

"I asked her who Eyal was. She said he was a friend. I asked her why it was too risky for her to see him. She didn't answer. I asked her who she really was and she said she couldn't answer and next thing I knew she shot me." He said as he winced.

"Can you tell me about the sound of his voice, anything you can think of, his style of speech any words he used."

"He sounded Israeli. The way he spoke. His mannerisms."

"Well I heard you say Eyal, which would track. Thanks Auggie. Heal up soon."

Joan exited the hospital and phoned the DCS.

"How is Auggie?" he asked

"He'll be fine. How is the hunt going for Eyal and Walker?"

"We ran the information through international databases and there is a lot of hits for Eyal's in Israel."

"Alright let's narrow the search parameters to recorded Mossad agents and then run the full names and ID through full facial recognition through all international databases."

"Let me know what you find. I'm headed back now."

20 minutes later Joan re-entered the DPD. "Have we found anything Barber?"

"Well I'm running the names drilling down deeper through the databases like you asked and…."

Suddenly the computer dinged

"We got something?" she asked

"Yeah the name Eyal Lavin came up on search along with George Yakos; he is a current Mossad Officer. Photo recognition says that George Yakos and this Eyal Lavin is the same person.

"Okay did you run any deeper background on Walker or Lavin or Yakos?"

"It's running now. Alright information is coming up now. We did reverse engineered Annie and Eyal / George's photo stopping it at different ages and ran through all the photos that appear anywhere online. We found matches. It looks like Annie and Eyal / George grew up together there are photos of them when they are young all the way through to age 10 to 15 to 20. Then there is nothing else any new photos.

"So Auggie was right Annie really is a double. A double for Mossad." Said Joan

Elsewhere Annie had finally reached their rendezvous point and waiting for her was Eyal. "Neshama, so glad you join me. Are you ready?"

Annie nodded as Eyal grabbed her hand and interlocked their fingers and headed up the gangway and onto the awaiting ship
