"Strawberry Miller " Kev said. "Toffee for me please" "Make blueberry for Clay, he's very healthy" Kev said. Miller nodded as he put the pancake batter in three seperate bowls. Miller was a man of many talents. Aside from beating boys up and playing "Going Under" on guitar, Miller made darn good pancakes that were so huge they'd last them all day. Little Ollie wasn't getting anything to eat though. Kev decided that he was gonna be on liquids for as long as possible. It wasn't because he hated Ollie or wanted to torture him, but the shittier Ollie looked and felt, the more chance they had of getting that money.

Kev had told John two days, but Kev didn't really care when they got the cash, so long as it was all Fifty Grand. They fed Ollie as many sleeping pills as his body would allow, so he was constantly in a daze or unable to remember what happened the day or night before. Kev hadn't seen Ollie awake since he'd drugged him, the only people that Ollie had seen when he was "Fully awake" were Miller and T.J. There was a good reason for that but Kev couldn't tell anyone about his plans unless the shit really hit the fan.

Being the most greatest friend ever, he text Clay. Telling him the directions and if he'd like to join them for a snack. He wasn't stupid he knew Wilkes/Daddy would tag alone for the ride. Kev wondered if "Daddy" could fake it, pretend that he had no idea who Kev was in front of Clay's face. The visitors started knocking and Kev sent T.J upstairs and kept Miller downstairs. If Clay or Daddy started to attack he needed real brawn and Miller was just that.

Kev buttoned up his shirt and walked over to the door. "Hello Clay...Mr Wilkes, please come in" Kev said leaving the door open and walking into the lounge. Daddy nodded at Miller. There was no reason for Daddy to see this guy as a threat, Clay didn't know it yet, but Daddy and Kev were on the same page. Kev Smilled and offered them something to drink like he was hosting a dinner party. Clay refused. "Where's Ollie?" Clay asked. "I want to check he's OK" "Straight ahead on your right" Kev said, as Clay went out of the room leaving Daddy, Miller and Kev to themselves.

"I've changed my mind "Kev" I think I'll have that drink" Daddy said. "A pancake too?" Kev asked. Daddy nodded and Miller walked into the kitchen to heat a pancake up. "What flavour do you want" Kev asked. "Cut the crap Kev" Daddy said briefly looking at the door. "Give him Strawberry Mill" Kev said. "Kidnap? Why?" Daddy asked. "You think Clay's gonna be your friend for kidnapping kids?" Daddy asked. "No" Kev said as Miller came back in with a glass of skimmed milk and a strawberry pancake that covered his whole plate. "Thanks" Daddy said, putting the tray on the floor and taking the glass.

"We've got Ollie for a reason. His "Daddy" is filthy rich and can give up a lot of pound/dollars whatever" Kev said. "How much did you ask for?" Daddy asked. "Ten grand" Kev said. Daddy incidently looked up at Miller, whose face twitched at the end of Kev's lie. "Look Wilky. I can give you a quarter..." "Half" Daddy insisted. "Fine half" Kev said. "That way your money problems go away and..." Kev looked at Miller who walked into another room to give Kev and Daddy privacy. Kev carried on talking after Miller shut the door.

"If I give you half Wilkes, then I don't have much to share with my friends here" Kev said. "Not my problem" Daddy said, picking up his tray, the plate was still warm. "That's why if I'm keeping Ollie hostage for nothing, Clay needs to be part of the deal" Kev told him and Daddy started smirking. "You throw in a good word for me..."

"Kev, Clay's a grown man he's got a family now...use your own charm to get him away from that slut-bucket and baby slime spawn" Daddy said, slicing up the pancake. "Clay can't be a problem" Kev told Daddy. "He can't take Ollie and he can't tell anyone where the kid is. If he does things might get nasty" Kev said. "I'm giving you five grand Wilkes" Kev told him. "A very generous bung" "It is" Daddy said. "So Clay needs to be grateful...right?" Daddy nodded and went looking for Clay.

Clay was talking to T.J about Ollie while Ollie was asleep on the bed. He looked at Daddy and saw the chance to take Ollie back. "Ummm...I think Kev wanted you with him" Daddy said to T.J. "I can't leave that one" T.J said chucking his head in Ollie's direction. "We'll keep an eye" Daddy said and T.J nodded and left, Kev had already told him that something was going to happen with the older guy, so T.J went back to the other room. As Daddy shut the door Clay went to the bed and started lifting Ollie up.

"Son, put him down" Daddy said and Clay paused leaving half of Ollie's body hanging. "Daddy T.J Says Ollie's been sleeping most of the time, that can't be true. Ollie's got family, my boss his dad, we can't just..." "Son, we have to leave him, tonight anyway" Daddy said. "I'm sorting something son. We'll be back" Daddy said. Clay dropped Ollie back on the bed and he stayed silent as they left Ollie sleeping. Daddy shook hands with Kev T.J and Miller before they walked to the door. "See ya Clay" Kev said as Clay ignored him and shut the door.

When Clay and Daddy were in the car Daddy got out his phone. "DannyV yeah...no...no Ollie...but put up a cash reward ...yeah...are you going to fucking do it?...you'll see" Daddy ended the call as Clay started the car. "This Kev say's he's making Ten Grand, his friend knew he was lying out his ass...Ten Grand my ass" Daddy said. Clay drove them to his place. He knew if Claire was up she'd have a fit. So he checked on Claire who was asleep and carried Nat around in a circle before getting called by Daddy. "Son put that ugly fuckling mistake down and get on your laptop" Daddy said. Clay put Nat down tucked her in and put his laptop on.

"You went with Ollie... out and about didn't you?" Daddy asked. "One concert, you know that Spirit Evolves that Eric likes..." "Whatever, you need to find out what Ollie's dad does" Daddy asked as Clay tried to get into John's bank account but it wasn't letting him in. John to Vlado's relief was working round the clock to keep tabs on Ollie's progress. He didn't want to go home, because everytime he stepped through the door, he thought he could hear Ollie's voice and ran upstairs to his son's room. The thought became as thin as paper when Ollie's room was exactly the same time and time again: empty.

This time Vlado convinced him to go home and rest. John drank and they talked about how they were going to break the news to Kate, who was after all Ollie's mother and Vlado's sister, but Vlado said they should wait, that there was no point in worrying her just yet. As soon as John was asleep Vlado was able to go out in the night to Jack's hospital. He'd written Jack's details on paper. Two nurses were on shift so Vlado didn't have much to worry about. He turned the corridor lights off and snuck into this "Jack's" room.

Aldercreutz had done a brutal job on this kid, but he was healing. Vlado looked around. This kid was breathing without help, his extra security gone. He was obviously going to be out in less than a week Vlado guessed. It had to be done this week. Seemed like an easy job. He turned around to see a tall figure staring at him. Without thinking about the noise he ran towards him swinging. The second intruder pushed Vlado up against the wall and covered his mouth. He took his hood off and Vlado stopped struggling. His eyes widened and Vlado stepped toward the man ready to apologise.

"Sash?" He asked. "Sorry...Mr Gavrik" Sash nodded. Vlado didn't really know much about him, but he knew of Sash's family in several stories were printed about his parents when Vlado was growing up and the Gavrik name was very well known to this day. Sash's parents were in different magazines, newspapers and media coverage was all over them in Europe. Sash's family were very rich, famous and respected. It was impossible for Vlado not to recognise Sash's face.

Vlado put his hand out in an apology. "Mr Gavrik I'm so..." "How long have you been working for Aldercreutz?" Sash asked. "Isus...all my life" Vlado chuckled. Sash walked towards Jack and dimmed the light on Jack's bed. Sash had purposely asked for Jack's security to be taken away weeks ago. Aldercreutz was going to strike while Jack was still hospital, it was the easier option. Now Sash had options of his own.

"Are you going to arrest me?" Vlado asked. "We were friends" Sash said looking at Jack. "Aldercreutz wants him gone...too much ležati, you know...Switch is scared" Vlado said. So was Sash. If Jack woke up and by some miracle remembered and told the FSB everything, Sash's British jobs were over, his international vocations were gone and he'd have to return back to Russia in shame. His parents would be so disappointed, his father would get crucified his mother bullied by the newpapers. He couldn't let it happen. It was better this way, as long as it went smoothly.

"Will it be painful?" Sash asked. I can use something that isn't" Vlado said. "It will look like he just died in his sleep" Sash nodded. "When?" Sash asked. "Probably tomorrow, I just came here to check out the place" Vlado said. "Can you get the Žene away from here?" Vlado asked, walking around Jack's bed. Sash nodded "The team I'm in will pass instructions...I'll be here first to say goodbye" Sash said. They both looked at Jack as he started to twitch in his sleep and Sash left the room first, then Vlado. They crept out into the dark running into the street. They hadn't run that far but Vlado noticed Sash was sweating like a roasting pig.

"Relax" Vlado said gripping the fine cashmere of Sash's jacket. "I can do this properly. Your friend Jack'll be injected, his heart will stop, no trace found" Said Vlado. "Everyone's secrets will be safe"

Clay was typing John's address into a database when his phone got attacked by several vibrations at once. He picked his phone up before it woke Claire up. "J-tab multi Encrypted" The text said.Daddy had gone and he couldn't talk about it with Claire. Clay hear Nat cry and went to Nat's room and picked up her up. She was still tossing and turning, the older she got, the louder she was.

He placed her on the sofa upright and showed his clueless tiny daughter his phone. "What's going on Nat?" He asked her. He got on Jack's hospital website and checked out the patient page tally. "Someone likes Jack Nat, never more than me but..." Clay noticed that Jack's tab which had his name and ward letter on it had been clicked on almost thirty times, more than anyone other patient in Ward S.

"Strange...Strange...Strange" Clay said. It could have been a new nurse, but as Clay checked their job starting dates all of them had been there for over a year. They all must have known that Jack's tab with his name and ward wasn't a real link and couldn't be opened. But someone wouldn't know that if they were new to the system and didn't know who Jack was. "Unless They've been asked to find him" Clay said to himself. Daddy could know, but would he tell? Jack had been speaking to DannyV once upon a time, but what would DannyV want with Jack now? "I'll call DannyV in the morning Nat" He told her. He took his daughter to bed, tucked her in and went to the living room and switched on the TV.

It was the news. "Forget the inner city , now it seems that this quiet surburban middleclass neighbourhood is being destroyed by a particulary dangerous man..." Clay sat up. "Dangerous man" That's the same thing Sash had said when he called Clay to tell him Jack was in hospital. He should have asked for more information, but he didn't know the things that Sash wanted to know about Achkan. Clay knew it was risky, but he accessed Sash's personal number so that he'd didn't have to go through Sash's many assistant's and press people. Luckily Sash answered the phone. He couldn't sleep and his anxiousness wasn't going away.

"Mr Garvik...It's Clay" Clay said. "Ahhh...how did you get this number?" Sash asked. "Achkan give it to you?" He asked. Clay had to stay on the right topic.

"Mr Gavrik I think Jack is in trouble. This "dangerous man" you were talking about might be looking for him and none of us want him to be hurt" Clay said looking for Sash's reassurance.

"Jack is protected. "You could be too if you told me about Achkan" Sash said.

"So Jack's got security and stuff...he's a thousand...like a million percent safe?" Clay asked.

"Jack's security sleeps at the hospital. He won't be in any pain, you have my word" As Sash went back onto Achkan, Clay made an excuse and ended the call. Typing in a search grid Jack was protected by a British firm called Treacle pud limited that Sash's team had used for informants. Clay checked their records and found out a certain FSB team leader had dismissed all five of them from Jack's hospital more than two weeks ago.

That was supposed to be a good sign, but if Jack didn't need any security that meant two things. One: Jack would be let out soon and the second most weirdest point: "Gavrik's lying" Clay said to the TV. Sash was lying to him when there was no reason for him to lie. Gavrik could try to hide Jack from him but why? Clay had to find out, but he told himself he was being too paranoid about Sash as he switched off the TV and got a cold shower. Sash wanted to protect Jack almost as much as Clay did. That was one of the many reasons why Clay couldn't stand Sash.
