"Hey," the young boy said and put a hand up in acknowledgement to the group in the bunker. Everyone's head swivelled from Hex to his younger brother and back again.

"Matt." Hex said slowly and paused. "What the fuck is wrong with you?!" Hex shouted and Amber put a hand on his arm to calm him down, the gesture worked for Hex glanced downwards in embarrassment at his outburst.

"You're hardly one to talk." Matt said back with a slight grin.

"What would mum say?" Hex shook his head at his sibling who rolled his eyes.

"Don't pull that one," Matt said, "don't try and make out that I was always the perfect son so should continue to be. Cause you were always away, first it was up in your room with that damned computer then it was alpha force and then it was work." He took a deep breath and was about to keep talking when Amber's hand dropped from Hex's arm and she stood up.

"What do you mean by you're hardly one to talk?" She asked him and noticed the way Hex wouldn't look at the screen. Matt said nothing but glanced back at Hex, Amber turned around. "What does he mean by that?" Amber whispered dangerously to him. There was an exaggerated gasp from Amnias.

"You never told the woman you love about your past? About your dirty, dark, crazy past?" Amnias said in distress, "well to be honest it's pretty tame compared to Paulo's, even though it was only the one thing." Everyone turned to the man who was sat in the darkest corner.

"Paulo-"

"NO, NO, NO LI!" Amnias shouted at her, "one at a time!" he said like a child whose game had been ruined. "I'm sorry," he gestured to Amber, "please continue." Amber nodded at him with a confused look and turned back to Hex. "Hurry Hex we don't have time!" Amnias said excitedly. Hex sighed and sat down.

"I used to," he glanced around for some route of escape but found none, "I used to be part of a group of hackers, back when I was in my late teens and we…" he looked up at Amber quickly, "took money from transfers going into banks." He shrugged as if it were nothing.

"You…stole?" Amber said quietly, "after all the good, moral things we did?!" She shouted at him and Li shuffled slightly away from her; everyone aware that it wasn't good to be around Amber when she was mad. She moved forwards and hit him hard in the chest with her fist. "And you never told me?!" She shouted and he grabbed her hand before she could hit him again.

"I'm sorry." Hex said but when there was no more to say she ran a hand through her hair and walked away from him. He watched her for a while but she didn't turn back and face him.

"Whoops," Amnias whispered through the silence, "tough break mate." He said to Hex with an apologetic smile. "But Amber do you have nothing to tell Hex?" Amber shook her head but still didn't turn around. "Guess what guys?" Amnias asked the group, "she's telling the truth." Everyone sighed in relief; the tension Amnias built up between them was incredible. The way he was turning them against each other without them even realising it was astounding too. "Li don't got much either," he said and they looked at the screen to see he was searching through a file. "You're divorced?" Amnias said to her and she looked away, "come on, that's nothing to be ashamed about!" He smiled at her and she looked to Paulo.

"It is when I only filed for a divorce when I thought I made a mistake!" Paulo looked up at her but hung his head in shame, "but I guess I was wasting my time?" She asked him. "What did you do?" She whispered. There was a moment of silence in which everyone watched Eva stand up on the screen, try to walk to her father who was on the screen but then fell down because her legs were bound.

"I killed a man." Paulo said and Li put her hand to her mouth. "Once," he assured her, "only once-"

"Once, a million times, what difference does it make? It's still wrong?" She shook her head to get rid of tears, "so when I left you, oh no, when you left me, you also lost your moral code?" She asked scathingly and swore when he nodded at her. "I can't believe this is happening." She whispered and sat down.

"It wasn't my fault-"

"I don't care." Li said and lapsed into an angry silence.

"Brad," Alex spoke for the first time in a very long time, everyone turned to look at him, "you're plan is flawed-"

"Flawed you say Alex?" He said in a bored voice, "please explain and enlighten me with your great wisdom." Alex sat forwards and rested his hands on the table.

"You say you want us to work for you, together as a team, but you're breaking us apart." Alex said and looked around at his four friends who didn't seem to care for each other much anymore.

"Oh no," Amnias waved an impatient hand at Alex, "I just wanted to ruin you all bit." He sighed, "you're seriously telling me that you all hate each other now, don't trust each other? From ten years of complete trust which I destroy in 5 minutes? NO." He looked at them, "you're all good, kind people, you'll trust each other in a second." He pointed at Amber. "So the guy used to rob banks," he shrugged, "you still love him don't you." Amber said nothing but from the way she glanced at Hex they could tell she still did. "And you, pretty boy," Paulo looked up, "you had exceptional circumstances for that murder didn't you?" Paulo nodded, "and your best friends won't hold that against you will they?" Everyone shook their heads. "Very well!" He turned around as Eva started crying, "that's a bloody awful noise, Matt," he addressed the young man at his side, "shut it up."

"Brad," Alex said in a warning tone and the man sighed.

"Oh alright, I'll play nice." He said with a quick smile, "untie Lily and the kid." He said to his two underling stood behind Lily, they obliged. "But Lily," Amnias turned to her, "I don't want no funny business OK?" Lily nodded. "I'm hungry too," he thought for a moment, "Lily, go cook." She looked at him savagely and nodded again. As soon as she picked Eva up she stopped crying, "good."

"Do you want the mission brief?" Matt asked and took out a sheaf of papers from his bag, Amnias nodded and Matt placed the papers into his outstretched hand.

"Alright guys," he said happily to Alpha, "let's see what you're going to do for me!" He read the paper and nodded. "I'm guessing you just about know about Sottoportego del Banco Giro, the first bank EVER in Venice?" He waited for them all to nod. "Never been robbed," he said slowly, scanning the page, "nope, never." He smiled at them, "I want that to change. I want," his face screwed up in concentration as he thought about it, "€20.1141934." He concluded.

"Bit of an odd amount…" Paulo muttered.

"That's 16 million pounds." Matt said back.

"Yo Amnias," Amber said and his attention snapped over to her, "ever heard of the term impossible?" He giggled in a mocking way.

"Ever heard of the term shut up?" He said and smiled at her.

"How're we supposed to do that?" Li asked and Amnias hit his forehead with his hand.

"Are you all idiots?" He shouted, "one of you used to do it for a living." He gestured to Hex who jumped.

"No, that was completely different!" But Hex went quiet as Amnias put his middle finger against his lips and shushed Hex.

"Look, you guys are amazing. I have the results of your T&A to prove it." He laughed, "so don't give me a we can't do it or any other juvenile bullshit because you have to." He moved close to the screen and whispered. "Because if you don't I'll blast a bullet right through that little girl's head before she can scream the word noh!" They looked at him blankly, "Spanish for no. And I swear to God I'll do it Alex." He added. "And it's sad, really, because I've watched you guys the entire time you've been in this house and I know you've all become quite attached to the little one. So I'm guessing you'll do it." He muttered something to Matt. "You can all have a little chat, you know, make a shopping list, and I'll get back to you in two hours." He moved away from the screen, "that gives me and Lily a little while to catch up." Matt came in front of the screen, they heard him push a button before the screen went blank.

"That's a very beautiful bracelet," Lily moved her hand away as Amnias fingered the bracelet on her left wrist. She proceeded to ignore him and cut up vegetables. She didn't look at him, talk to him or acknowledge him. "I said," he slammed his knife point down into the cutting board she was using. She jumped back and dropped her own knife so it clattered on the floor, "that's a very beautiful bracelet. Who gave it to you?" Lily bent down, picked up her knife and went to wash it. As she stood up she realised that the knife Amnias was using had once belonged to Alex.

"Thank you," she said and let warm water drip down the blade, "my father bought it for me." She heard him laugh and turned around.

"You mean," he drew a line with his finger on the table, put his nose against the hard wood and snorted along the imaginary line. "Señor Druggo." He laughed and Lily smiled.

"That's my father." She said and walked past Amnias, as she did he grabbed her hand.

"How come you never followed in his footsteps?" He asked and anyone would've thought the answer was obvious but he couldn't understand it. When Lily did not answer he pulled her back and rested his chin on her shoulder, he nodded out the door towards Eva who was playing with Matt. "You do everything for her right? You want the best for her." He blew on the skin of her shoulder, "you lived in a mansion as a kid, servants waited on you every hour of the day. How come you don't want that for your daughter?" He asked.

"My daughter has everything she could ever need-"

"Except her dad." He laughed, "come on you told me that once," he whispered as he brushed her hair to one side. "One lonely summer evening when Alex was out-"

"It wasn't like that." She whispered disbelievingly and turned to him.

"Wasn't like what?" He asked with a smile, "I never insinuated anything." He said quickly.

"Why are you doing this?" Lily asked and tried very hard not to break down, "please Brad, you were never like this-"

"I LOST EVERYTHING!" He shouted at her and she looked away. He saw Eva look in concern through the door; Matt got up and shut the kitchen door for Amnias. The man took Lily by the shoulders and forced her against a kitchen cupboard, he leant in close "I lost everything." He repeated in a dangerously quiet voice. "While I was tortured by foreign intelligence Alex was fucking you in my office. You know how that makes me feel?" He said and his face contorted with rage so close to Lily's she couldn't help but start sobbing. "That hurts Lily, no, no, no," he muttered and took her face roughly in his hands. "Don't cry. I don't want Alex to think I treated you bad." He stopped suddenly and put a hand to Lily's mouth to stop her from making noise. There was a knock on the front door.
