Contact

Beth stared out of the window of the small car and watched as Calum sulked in the back seat of the car.

"This contact of Dim's?"

"Yeah?" Beth asked but her eyes stayed firmly on Dimitri and the small, balding man he was talking to.

"What's her name again?"

"Sienna Sapphire. She's a registered informant. Dimitri has been running her since we joined Section D."

"Right."

"They were in the SBS together." Beth smiled at his confusion. "In those days she was Kevin. He's now a drag artist at the club over there."

"Right." Calum raised his eyebrows as Dimitri began to return to the car, clearly annoyed.

"Problem, Sailor Boy?" Beth asked as Dimitri slumped in the front passenger seat of the car.

"An inconvenience more than problem. Sienna is in Bow Street police station."

"Why?" Calm asked as Beth started the engine. Dimitri winced, clearly in pain with his new prostheses.

"Last night there was a drug raid on the club. Apparently a 6ft 6 bloke in 8 inch heels and a blonde Beehive looked suspicious."

"I wonder why." Calum shook his head as Beth smiled. "Ok, where now?"

"Bow Street police station." Beth stated.

"Ros has gone to find her brother." Malcolm shook his head. "The workings of that girl's mind will forever be a mystery to me."

"She thinks she is protecting Lucas and the children." Ruth sighed as Zoe sat in the seat vacated by Zaf moments earlier.

"Well, she's going the wrong way about it." Zoe stated. Erin raised an eyebrow.

"Is she? When you believe your child is in danger, there is nothing you wont risk to make sure they are safe." Erin's cut glass accent cut through the air. Ruth nodded sadly, knowing the lengths she would go to for her children and step children.

"Follow her on the CCTV." Malcolm stated. Tariq raised an eyebrow.

"Already on it."

"Adam?" Ruth turned to see the blonde former section chief pull on his leather jacket as Lucas, Erin and Zaf headed towards the pods. Lucas remained deathly silent, she could only imagine the thoughts going through Lucas' mind as he followed Erin and Zaf towards the Pods.

"Any sign of her, let us know. Any intel on where Philip Myers or this Carl Ford are contact me. I want updates. If Ros has just walked into a death trap then I want to be able to pull her out of it."

"Of course." Ruth stated as Zoe caught Zaf's eye. "As soon as we get anything."

"Ruth!" Harry called from the office as Malcolm and Tariq focused on the computer screens. "Alec, my office. Now." He stepped back into the small glass walled room as Alec rolled his eyes. Sam and Jed looked on as Ruth looked over at them. She shook her head sadly before following Alec into her husband's office.

"You." Sienna Sapphire adjusted the Beehive with one hand while picking up her cigarettes from the table in front of her. "Are a diamond my boy, a bloody diamond."

"You ok?" Dimitri smirked as the Lilly Savage lookalike rolled her eyes.

"A night in the cells. My lippy is half way up my sodding face, I broke me heel and I'm knackered. Not had a fag for almost 24 hours. Do I look alright to you?" Dimitri laughed as the desk sargent pushed a piece of paper forward for Sienna to sign.

"Your birth name please." The police officer pointed to the box he wanted Sienna to sign.

"Birth name? Do I look like a bloody Kevin to you?" Sienna huffed as Dimitri rolled his eyes. "I ain't a bloody drug dealer. I'm a drag queen. Cheek of it." Sienna scrawled something vaguely legible in the box. "Now, Peg Leg, what do you want me for?"

"As politically correct as ever." Dimitri leaned against the door of the police station. "And I have a prosthesis not a wooden leg like Captain Hook. This is what you get when a house blows up on you and a mate doing your job. Now, you and me have some talking to do." Sienna tugged her skirt down a little before walking out of the station in front of Dimitri.

"Well? C'mon. Out with it."

"What do you know about Carl Ford and Philip Myers?"

"Ford is a nasty little runt of a man. Myers, I've heard the name but thought he was in prison."

"So did we." Dimitri sighed. "He's dangerous. What do you know?"

"Not here." Sienna stated. "Give me a lift home and I'll fill you in on what I may or may not have heard." He staggard away in broken heels as Beth watched from the car. Calum had no idea how to react as the former sailor and the drag queen walked towards the car.

"Harry." Alec closed the office door behind Ruth, aware that Harry had closed the blinds. Ruth caught Harry's gaze as Alec spoke.

"I know everyone is concentrating on either finding Ros or meeting Dimitri's informant." Harry began but I want you to dig into Sam's background." He raised a hand as Ruth was about to protest.

"Harry, I."

"I know she made some unwise choices in her love life but she was your contact at GCHQ since your return Ruth. Yet she never told you Philip Myers was out of prison. She told you she was leaving GCHQ. She told you she was expecting a child but she never once told you the one piece of information that could have prevented all this."

"Harry, she was scared." Ruth held his gaze. "This is Sam Buxton. Hardly a criminal mastermind."

"We had her doubts about her before." Alec stated calmly. "I read the file. It was on IA's remit then."

"Tessa." Ruth shook her head. "All this because that girl out there has been stupid enough to trust Tessa Phillips and fall for the wrong man."

"Yes, because her apparent stupidity could have cost lives then and it could now." Harry felt Ruth's eyes boring into him. "I hope I can trust you both to be objective."

"Of course." Alec nodded before leaving the room. Ruth closed her eyes for a moment, angry that her judgement in trusting Sam was being questioned again.

"Ruth." Harry crossed the office to her. When she opened her eyes he was so close she could smell his aftershave. Opening her eyes the anger glimmered at him.

"She was so young then."

"Age has nothing to do with naivety."

"Harry."

"Please Ruth. I don't want either Samantha or Jed to be implicated in any of this. But we both know how dangerous Myers is. His little friend is stalking Catherine. The very thought of them in the same room makes my blood run cold. I have to check everything."

"I know." Ruth rested a hand on his arm. "I know."

Ros glared at the church doorway, knowing this was the one place her brother would be unable to stay away from. She narrowed her eyes as she felt someone behind her. Turning slowly she narrowed her eyes.

"Hello Philip."
