"Michelle," a voice called out.
Michelle never stirred.
Rocks tumbled down as Tony made his way through the rubble.
He shouted out again, "Michelle."
He dragged his limp leg, from when Nina shot him, and made his way over to Michelle.
He bent down and checked for a pulse.
"Please, Michelle," he whispered.
She still had a pulse but it was fading fast.
Tony looked up and could see the roof slowly crumbling. They had little than 2 minutes, maybe less, to get out from under the roof.
Tony picked Michelle up and made his way to the door as quickly as possible. Sure enough the roof gave way and fell above just as Tony barged through the door with Michelle.
Other agents and doctors on the other side ran to their aid.
They took Michelle to an ambulance, leaving Tony shouting her name.

"Jack. Hey Jack?" Kate said with trembling lips as Jack came around.
"What happened? Where's Marie?"
Kate took a moment to answer him, scared at what he would do.
"She's… She's dead Jack," she finally answered.
"What do you mean?" he asked sternly.
"She was going to kill you or get away; I had to do something and…"
Jack interrupted her with his shouts of "Dammit. Dammit. Kate she was the only lead and right now we have nothing."
Kate was shaking but stood up to him. "Do you think all this is easy for me? I just killed my sister. I didn't want to but that was the last resort. You may not have a lead but right now I don't care."
Jack had lost his temper and nearly smacked Kate but managed to restrain himself and hit into the ground. His eyes poured with tears as he lay on the grass and gave up.
Kate stood above him, herself crying.
After a minute or so she bent down and touched his shoulder.
"Jack…I'm sorry."
He never replied.
"Jack?" She tried again, getting an answer out of him.
"I can't do this anymore. Everyone I love ends up getting hurt and the 2 most important people in my life are dead, all because of my job. I lost my daughter only a few hours ago. That's her gone forever and all I wanted was to stop this from happening to anyone else, but I can't. Nothing can stop these people; nothing can stop my worst enemy."
Kate looked into Jack's cold, dreary eyes, seeing only pain and suffering.
He wanted to end this, and Kate knew she could help.

Barracks couldn't stop thinking about Grace.
"Where the hell did she go Arran? She just disappeared."
"To be honest Colin, when these situations occur, you never know how people are going to react. She may have seemed strong on the outside, but on the inside she was full of fear. She'll be fine, right now we have to concentrate on the president."
Barracks nodded but didn't agree with Arran.
Nothing added up. She didn't seem like the person to run away. She wasn't the person that would run away from fear. She hadn't before.
Barracks thoughts were disrupted as Arran prodded him.
"Look," he said while pointing up ahead.
Barracks slowed the car to a stop and looked at where Arran was pointing.
A fire was blazing from a car and a group of homeless people were gathered around it.
"What do we do?" Arran asked.
Barracks grabbed a gun from the backseat and loaded it up.
"Get around the problem."
He got out and shouted out,
"We work for the F.B.I and Secret Service, everyone move out of the way."
The tramps turned and opened their browned coats to reveal machine guns.
All 6 of them fired at once, making Barracks duck back into the car. He stamped his foot down and drove backwards, and then revved the engine, warning he was coming forward.
"What are you doing?" Arran asked.
"Giving these tramps a home."
With that he drove forward at full speed, the bullets of the attacker's guns smashing through the window. The car hit one of the attackers and managed to keep going until Barracks and Arran both jumped out as the grey smoke from the bonnet warned them.
The car swerved on its own accord and smashed into a wall, blowing up.
The tramps came running up, each getting killed as Arran and Barracks hid in the grass and shot them.
Barracks run out of ammo and as the remaining one ran up to Arran, Barracks ran up behind and pushed him to the ground. He twisted his wrist and pushed his face into the ground.
"Who do you work for?" Barracks commanded.
"No one. We were given guns by these men and told to stop anyone that came through. We had nothing to lose," he wept.
Barracks let go and went to help up Arran. "Come on, we need to keep moving."
The tramp pulled out a knife and ran towards them just as Barracks swung round and kicked the knife out of his hand, and threw a kick into his neck, breaking it.
