Alexandra Murphy closed her bright blue eyes from the burning sun on the roof of a twenty story building and concentrated on the music that was pounding through her eardrums. A lawyer who listened to heavy metal, who'd have guessed from her clean cut straight blonde hair and stereo-typical power suit.

However, who'd have thought that little under ten years ago she was a computer hacker who spent all day glued to the computer. Little under ten years ago she had no reason to make money. Her name was on the will for a good chunk of her grandfather's company.

Then Sam came along, and everything went to pot! Alexandra lost everything, including her father in the incident at San Diego. Sam was then the little princess and without her father around they could pretend to be happy families.

To the public eye Samantha was Alex and Tim's sister despite carrying the name Hammond; something Tim hadn't even thought to question. She was two years older than Alex and to everyone more pretty than her too.

Course, Alex hated her. Sam had become the apple of her grandfather's eye and she could do no wrong. Sam had gotten to date who she wanted, go out when she wanted. Her grades could fall and she wouldn't be punished.

Sam, Sam, Sam, Sam.

Every single thing revolved around Sam. Tim loved Sam to pieces; she loved dinosaurs as much as he did. They both joined Alan Grant on digs during the summer. Sam was aloud to date pond life scum Billy Brennan and bring the family name down even further. At which point Alex had started dating Nathan Tribbs, stunning bachelor who only had an inch of heart for a woman; and that was her. He loved her, she knew that. Even though he was set to marry Sam, he still loved her. It was a pure business deal.

He's been stolen from her. It all went wrong when her grandfather had been told he didn't have much longer to live and he should get his affairs in order. This led to him removing Sam from the digs and warning Billy to stay away. Then, her grandfather bought Nathan's bachelorhood for a pricey sum on the condition that it was Sam he was to marry.

Alex didn't understand why. Nor did she care; she and Nathan had a plan. By the time Nathan was to divorce Sam she wouldn't have a penny to her name. It would all be Alex and Nathan's.

Except Sam was fucking it all up by blowing up the islands, nothing would be left. The company would be worthless. Fuck was Sam getting away with that.

That was why she was waiting on the top of her building waiting for the god damn chopper that was half an hour late…..

"Miss Murphy. There's a Mr Tribbs on the line, he needs to speak to you urgently" She secretary had explained after pulling her out of a meeting an hour early. She passed the handset to the angered young woman; she was just about the clinch the case of the decade, now it going to be given to Fish-breath George Sandini.

"What?" She hissed down the phone as she closed her office door. "You've just lost me thousands."

"Did you know your sister had gone?"

"What fucking sister. I don't have a sister. You know that!" He wasn't improving her mood.

"You know who I mean, Sam! She's blowing up the islands and destroying the god dam company. It's not even getting broken up and sold. She's liquidating it…. It won't exist."

Silence on Alex's part.

"I'm going to stop her Alex. She can't do this to us."

"Come and get me. I'll come with you."

Hope people are liking this… sorry if it's a bit short but I am a little rusty.
