Chapter 5

"Get out." Isabel spoke firmly.

"What the fuck did you do?" She immediately put on an act, "Mr. Benedict was locked here for inspection, and you let him go?"

"Leah!" She yelled, "Get out now, your stuff is in the American's room."

"What the . . . "

"Lou called me the moment he saw them enter the club, he said Mr. Benedict had come back here with you, so I came here to get the two of you, and found only Terry."

"So?"

"I'm not finished!" She snapped, her gun still raised, "Terry told me what happened. You lied to him, brought him back here, locked him up and went back to the club to help with the robbery."

"What robbery?"

"The one that The Americans were involved in." She sighed, "Lou saw them all enter the club, and Terry saw Robert at the bar when you were leaving."

"And you came back here, believing all this shit?"

"Yes. Because it's true. Now get out, you know where your stuff is." Leah walked toward the open door. "If I ever see you again, I'm arresting you, which means you'll be fired, from both jobs." Isabel walked forward, and slammed the door shut. Leah sighed heavily, and walked down the hall, knocking on the American's door, Rusty pulled it open a minute later.

"Lea, what're you doing here?"

"She knows."

"Who knows, and about what?" Danny asked, walking up behind Rusty.

"Isabel, she knows you pulled the robbery, so does Benedict?"

"How?" He asked again, pulling her into the hotel room.

"As soon as Lou saw you, guys enter the club, he called her, she came to the hotel first, and found Benedict locked up. Benedict also saw Rusty at the bar."

"So we're busted?"

"Majorly."She sighed, dropping down into a chair, "However, you'll be glad to know that I shredded all evidence of you guys being here before. So all she has to go off of in word of mouth, which is not dependable."

"So we're safe?"

"You, yes. Me, not so much, she told me she was going to arrest me if she saw me again."

"He's gonna want more than what we stole back." Tess stated.

"Then let's get cracking on a new idea." Ruben nearly shouted from his chair. "What? We might as well do it now, and not wait three years like we did before he tracked us all down last time."

"He's right." Rusty turned to the others, "But I really have to go now, talk about it, I'll be back." With that, he vanished.

"I've heard the police vaults in Amsterdam are pretty full, and I know exactly how we can do it." His eyes rested on Leah.

"Me? How the hell am I supposed to go back in, to the Policia now?"

"As Isabel..." Linus came to realization.

"What?" She was taken back, "And how am I supposed to be able to pull that off?"

"Well..."

Flashback

Leah had run out of the American's room rather fast, there was no possible way that what she had just heard was true. Just as the young woman took a seat on a random bench in the park across the street from the hotel, as soft voice spoke out to her.

"Are...you okay?" Leah looked up, Tess was standing beside her.

"I...I will be."

"Can I sit down?"

"Yeah, go right ahead." The woman sat.

"Something else shocked you having to do with Le Marc."

"He's the one who taught me everything." She sighed, "He's my grandfather."

"Le Marc only had one child, and that was Isabel."

"Exactly." Leah wiped her eyes, "The bitch I've been fighting for what seems like forever."

"So...you didn't know it was her?"

"No."

"Do you know your father?"

"I have no idea who he is." Tess paused.

"How old are you again?"

"Twenty."

"Huh." The woman did the math in her head, figuring things out. As soon as she arrived back at her hotel room, and found Danny, she told him.

End Flashback.

"You want me to do a looky-loo?"

"Yes." Danny nodded, "Think about it, all we'd need to do is cut your hair, put blue contacts in, dress you up, and there you go, you're Isabel."

"Who're we gonna test it on?"

"Rusty, who else?"

"Fine." She gave in, "But if it doesn't work, I'm going to have to kill you."

"Oh don't worry, it will."

"As long as we make sure Isabel doesn't show up, or have contact with anyone." Tess smirked, "Leah, you're safe if you're playing a person we can control, unlike a celebrity." She glared over at Linus and Danny.
