Chapter six

Liz awoke to the bright sun shining through Red's bedroom window. She had soundly slept through the night except of course when she and Red were having fun as he had put it. She smiled as she fondly remembered it whilst she had her head resting against Red's chest. He was still asleep and for a while she just studied his calm sleeping face and listened to his regular heart beat inside his chest.

She had quickly lost track of time when she stared at her watch another ten minutes had past by and she thought it was really time to get up. Was she also going to wake Red up, she would have to wouldn't she. She devised a plan when she saw his dress shirt laying wrinkled on the floor.

Red was softly woken when someone begun to shake him, he reached over to his side to pull Lizzie close and kiss her to find her missing from his side. He opened his eye's to see his Lizzie standing with a devilish smile on her face as she wore his shirt all to well, he just chuckled in amusement.

Once Red was dressed and implored Lizzie a few times with no success to stay in his shirt they went down to get some breakfast. Once Dembe caught them walking together a deep heartedly laugh escape his mouth and he simple watched for a second before fetching Reddington his usual and Agent Keen what she had had yesterday.

Red went sat in his usual seat as Liz decided to sit closer to him this time she moved a chair just thirty centimetre away and Red again put his hand contently around her.

After eating Red stood and put his coat on before speaking to Dembe "Did you get what I was looking for?"

"Yes the address is just out side of town at a storage container facility," he answered in his usual deep voice.

"Excellent…," he said to him then looked back to Liz who was curious to what they were talking about "Lizzie I want you to make up your mind if you want to come along with us or not."

She was confused. Did he want her to make her mind up right now before he alluded to what she was making a decision about?

"I'm afraid that if you come along you might not like what you find," he said with unreadable features again.

How could she not want to come although his words had worried her curiosity always got the better of her. So she simply answered that she wanted to come.

Once they where at the storage container facility Dembe pulled a gun from somewhere and she begun to fret that she would be apart of Red's plan to commit a crime. No he wouldn't do that she reassured herself and then wondered what this really was about whilst she to pulled her service weapon.

After hearing suspicious struggling sounds coming from one of the storage units they neared it and when she finally did see what was going on she froze.

Tom was pulling around a woman with duct tape binding her hands and legs and a smaller strip over her mouth. When the woman saw them she started to cry out for help and Tom instantly knew there were gun pointed his way.

"You know what your down fall was Tom," Red said as Tom turned around with his hands raised to the air.

"What is that Sean?" he said viciously to him in his natural English accent "Oh yeah and my name is Thomas."

Red just begun to chuckle at everything he had just said and then answered him with a dead serious look "You're too cocky… You left notes after every kill."

Liz was frozen as she listened to what they why saying. Tom…Thomas was a killer. Thomas was the Englishman.

"Well you'll never take me in alive," he said with another cocky grin.

"Oh I don't work for the FBI I wasn't intending to unless Lizzie persuades me to," he says and when that didn't wipe the smile off his face he continues "My actual name is Raymond Reddington perhaps you've heard of me," he smiled when the smile disappeared from his face.

Thomas looked to Liz for assistance "Lizzie come on babe persuade him," he sweet talked almost pleading as Dembe grabbed him and put a gun to the back of his head.

Liz was frozen as she stared at him with her gun pointed to him. What was he saying to her? All she understood was when he spoke her name but it sounded wrong somehow.

"Lizzie if it came down it you couldn't shoot me could you," he told more then asked as in just an instant he had spun around and grabbed Dembe's gun from his hands.

Nothing went though Liz's mind but she could feel herself pull the trigger and saw the three bullets she fired go through his chest. Seconds later he was on the ground dead.

"Too cocky," Red repeated after whilst looking down at him as Dembe went over to help the woman out of her restraints.

Half an hour later the FBI had turned up to assisted although there was nothing left to be done but get some medical attention for the woman and assess what had happened. Luckily Red's theory was correct and they had found a small camera that showed all that they said went on.

Agent Ressler walked up to Liz as she stared at the medical examiner's zip up the body bag and load it in the van "Well that's one way to end a marriage," he said to her as her also observed.

Liz turned rigidly to him before looking up at him as he though she was going to address him. Liz bald her hand up into a fist and punched him in the face before walking over to the quite amused Red and asked him if they could go.

He was happy to take her any where she wanted to go.
