"Do I know you?" Gordon asked suspiciously. My mouth kept opening and closing like a fish, I had no idea what to say to them, in the end I figured that it would be best to just say something that they would hopefully understand
"He loved you guys so much; He would walk on hot coals if it meant that you guys would be okay"
"What are you talking about?" Scott said defensively
"You know who I'm talking about and I'm glad to see that you are still over protective Scott"
"Who are you?"
"Someone from the past" I replied "Did you ever read the letter that Alan left on his bed?" I asked, curious if they actually did manage to read it
"How do you know about that?" John asked while standing up
"Was it you? Did you kill our baby brother" Oh, if they only knew who they were actually talking to "No one knows that he died or left a letter addressed to us on his bed" Scott said with a hint of threat in his voice "So who are you?"
"No one important" I muttered and headed back home. That was not how I had pictured seeing them again and I was not ready to reveal myself.

The moment I walked in the door I was met with total silence, alarm bells started going off in my head and I immediately reached for my gun.
"Hello?" I called out. No reply
"Alexia? Vance? Zia?" Still no reply. Slowly I crept around the house. Vinnie was still sound asleep in his cot. As I entered our bedroom, I immediately noticed the amount of blood on the floor and the three bodies lying side by side, in the middle of the floor. Running over to them, I was instantly relived when I found that Alexia was breathing steadily and she was only knocked out. Moving onto the Vance, he had sustained a cut to the head but otherwise he seemed to be fine. Zia looked the worse out of them and it was the amount of blood on her chest that worried me. I couldn't find a pulse and after lifting up the bottom of her t-shirt a bit, I found a bullet wound in her stomach.
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
The paramedics had come and taken Alexia and Vance to the nearest hospital while Zia was pronounced dead at the scene. Police had come, done a full sweep over, and looked at all the security footage. There were four people, they came in, grabbed the adults and shoved them into the bedroom. A few minutes later, they came out and left with Scooter and Jonas out the back door just as I came in. I had just missed them by a minute, if I hadn't have left or talked to my brothers then Scooter and Jonas wouldn't have been kidnapped and Zia would still be alive.
"Hello" I said as I answered my phone
"We need you to come in immediately"
"But it is my day off from…" I trailed off
"I know but your team needs you"
"They found me and took Scooter and Jonas"
"How? I thought I made sure that no one could tie you to him"
"Well they obviously found me and I thought that being undercover meant that extra precautions would be taken"
"I'll..."
"Look, if gotta go and see how Alexia is doing... I'll talk to ya later"
(Flashback)
"Just do it" I snared
"As you wish" He said and pointed the gun at my chest, before he could pull the trigger I yelled
"Time trigger on my door, read the letter on my bed when it opens" then there was a bang and I looked down to see blood pouring out of my chest. Except the bullet never made contact with my skin, it hit my bulletproof vest that I had underneath and the bag of fake blood
"ALAN" I heard my brothers scream but now he was pointing the gun at one of them while he dragged me out. The last thing I saw of my brothers was them kneeling on the floor with tears streaming down the faces. I closed my eyes, to make it look real.
I must have fallen asleep because when I next opened my eyes, I was sitting in the co pilot's chair of the plane and the man in black was sitting next to me
"Hey Vance, thanks for helping me with that"
"Anything for a friend, but remind me why I did that? I mean I thought that you loved your family"
"I do but they are after me and I don't want my family to get hurt because of me"
(Present day)
"Alec? Are you okay?" I heard a voice ask and I looked up to see that Alexia was staring at me from her hospital bed
"Yeah but I ran into my brothers earlier"
"How did it go? Do they know that you are alive?"
"No… and after today I don't think I want them to know but unfortunately I think that I am going to need their help because S.O.S can't be involved in this yet" I stated then remembered that she doesn't know about the twins
"What aren't you tell me? Why can't they be involved yet?"
I sighed and silently kicked myself, "The people that attacked you also took the twins. S.O.S can't help because they have nothing to do with the twins and until they know for sure that it is them, they can't do anything"
"Why would they do that?"
"I don't know but I'll see you soon and I'll be back later to sign the release papers," I said as I gave her a kiss and left. I was going to need some serious help and it wasn't going to be from S.O.S. I just hoped that they haven't changed their number since I left or left the café.
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
I was surprised that when I headed back to the café, that they were still sitting there. I could see that they were laughing about something and I felt like I was forgotten all over again but this time I knew it was my fault. I kept walking towards them I could hear what they were saying
"…and remember when he blew up chemistry lab. I don't think I have ever seen dad so mad" I nearly blurted out that it wasn't my fault but then I remembered that they think I am dead. I pulled a chair up beside them and sat down. I felt like I was a black sheep in a pen full of goats because they were all staring at me
"I really need your help"
"Why would we help you?"
"Because it involves your brother. Your baby brother and his kids"
"No… we saw him die. He's dead. He doesn't have any kids"
"Do you have his body?" it was certainly weird to talk in third person "How do you know that he didn't fake his death"
"Who are you?" Gordon asked again.
I slowly breathed in and said, "Your brother"

Sorry for taking awhile to update. We just had the school holidays so I was really busy. I have had this chapter done for a while but then I changed my mind and changed how it ended, but it didn't really suite where I wanted things to go and I forgot so thanks to the reviewer that had reviewed recently reminded me of the story.
