Cam POV

'I've send you Karis's last known coordinates' Liz said through the phone

'Received' Macey replied. She turned to us '5 miles away'

'I don't get it' Bex looked around us, from the rusty, abandoned car to the sign for fresh manure next left...we were truly far away from any point of civilisation. This reminded me of my hometown before Gallagher and before my dad died.

'Why would anyone on the run come here?' She said. I studied the area, squinting against the sun's rays.

'She's getting too cocky' I concluded

'How can you tell?'

'She didn't cover her tracks with Tina very well, the fact that she used my name meant that she was desperate to see Tina, or to have Tina want to speak to her. Stereotypically when someone goes on the run, they go somewhere familiar and off the beaten track whilst they clear their heads and get a plan. For me, it was running to Joe's cabin. For Karis...it's here'

'Okay Cammie, you've got point on this little mission' Bex turned to me 'What are we going to do first?'

'Find and observe' I slid my sunglasses over my eyes. 'Apparently she's 5 miles away, then let's go'

I didn't really have a plan as we were travelling towards finding Karis. My gut instinct was to punch her in her stupid smug face; and as Macey said, my gut is right every time.

Whilst we were getting closer to the pinpoint location, I phoned Damian to no avail. I tried phoning Zach as well.

The person you are calling is unavailable, please try again later.

Needless to say, I gave up phoning Zach.

'Target 3 o'clock' Bex's voice brought me back to the present. I snapped my head around to see Karis walking across the quiet street with a brown paper bag full of groceries. She checked her surroundings before getting into her car.

'Should we follow her?' Macey asked. Bex reached for the ignition switch.

'Wait' I stopped her. I watched as Karis sat in her car for a few moments. 'She's checking her surroundings' I told them.

'She's very paranoid' Macey noted

'You would be too if you knew that Cammie was after you' Bex quipped

'But she doesn't' I thought out loud 'She doesn't know that I know' I felt the cogs in my head begin to turn. A plan was forming

'Girls...did you remember to pack the handcuffs?'

…

'Cam, are you sure about this plan?' Bex asked for the millionth time.

'No' I told her again 'But I have to try and see if she'll come'

Bex and I moved Macey onto one of the chairs we found in this abandoned barn. We tied her legs and bound her wrists. Bex found a cushion and stuffed it under Macey's top. She stood back to admire her work.

'You definitely look pregnant, Macey' Bex concluded. I winced slightly remembering the secret that Macey confided to me; the secret that only just popped into my head.

'You don't have to do this if you don't want to' I was quick to add 'We can turn the lights off so you don't need the cushion'

'It's fine, Cam' Macey gave me one of her unfiltered looks. A similar look was previously given to me when we were at Joe's cabin after Boston. It was a look that showed we had both survived, but the real challenge was yet to come 'Besides, it's extra padding if she goes psycho and shoots me'

'Shhh. I hear a car coming' Bex exclaimed. I hastily placed a pillowcase over Macey's head. From a distance, she looked like me. You couldn't see her face, nor could you see her hair colour. The pillow was placed properly to replicate my stomach now.

Bex and I hid in position. An hour ago, Bex phoned Karis asking for her help; Bex informed her that myself and Zach had been taken hostage somewhere, managing to send out an SOS signal. Karis was the closest and said she would check it out. Bex also made sure to add that she didn't know if we were alive or dead.

I restrained myself from launching myself at Karis when she walked through the barn doors. Her hair was shiny against the moonlight. She crept through the space making sure there were no hidden surprises.

'Zach?' She called out 'Cammie?' She continued to move through the barn. Macey groaned loudly grabbing Karis's attention.

'Cammie' She repeated bluntly. There was no surprise nor concern in her voice. She said it bluntly as if I was the short straw she got lumped with. Macey grunted again. Karis folded her arms and studied Macey (who Karis would have thought was me). Karis did not seem to care about rescuing me at all. She just stood there and stared, wondering what on Earth she was going to do.

After a few moments, she made her decision and began to reach for her gun, placing a compressor over the top, making the gun become a silencer.

'Drop it' Bex hissed stepping out of the shadows and pointing her gun at Karis. Karis was shocked that Bex was here, but she didn't drop her gun.

'Not a chance' She snapped

I was the otherside of the barn, behind Karis. It was my turn to step out.

'I would if I were you' I warned. Karis whipped around, her mouth dropping open slightly. 'Seriously, were you going to shoot a pregnant woman' I shook my head 'Damn, you are cold'

'What?' She asked stunned 'I thought…' She looked at Macey (finally realising it wasn't me) causing her mouth to form a thin line

'I've come for a chat' I shrugged 'Because I've heard so much about you recently' I smiled at her 'Plus we have so much in common'

'Oh really?' She rolled her eyes

'Yes. Like our dear friend Tina Walters' Once I said Tina's name, I saw Karis's eye twitch a little. Karis instinctively grabbed her gun and aimed it at me, but I'd already predicted she would do this, and just before she fired, Bex jabbed a needle into her neck, plunging the liquid into her veins. Karis dropped her gun, her legs began to shake.

'That's for Tina' I hissed as Karis crumpled to the ground.

…

I sat opposite Karis waiting for her to wake up. She was tied up like Macey was, but we made sure that she couldn't get out. Her head rolled to the side as she began to wake up. I sat back and stretched. Karis groaned and then opened her eyes. Once she saw me she glared.

'What the hell?' She hissed.

'Just having a chat' I shrugged

'Why the fuck am I tied up?' She fought against her restraints.

'Let's see, shall we? First of all you got greedy in Portugal and you sold out the rest of your team leading to their deaths. Secondly, you flirted with my husband. Thirdly, you bargained with my families lives for your freedom. Fourthly, you've caused me to be separated from my son for far too long. And finally, this baby thinks my bladder is a punching bag and God help me, I will piss on you if I have to'

'Your point is?'

'Despite all that, I can still make you bleed from the inside out and I can make you feel more pain that you can ever imagine. Now, tell me the truth before I whoop your slutty ass and blow your brains to bits'

'Big talk from someone who has been out of the game' She chuckled

'I'm a Gallagher girl, we never leave the game. We win it' I produced a gun from my pocket and clicked it.

'Oh, I'm so scared!' She said sarcastically

I fired the gun. Karis winced.

'Oh, I'm so scared' I mocked her

'What do you want?' She snapped

'The truth. And if you won't cooperate, then I have certain ways of getting it out'

'So?'

'So, the others don't know where we are' I aimed the gun at her leg and fired. She groaned from the pain. Blood began to pour out. 'And with a wound like that, you'll be dead before they find you' I tilted my head and smirked

'You're a bitch' She spat.

'I'm a spy' I retorted 'I'm also a daughter, a sister, a wife and a mother. I'm also technically a killer, with the mess caused by the Circle' I shrugged 'But it's all just whispers, isn't it?' She stared at me blankly 'That's what you told Damian, didn't you? You told him that I was an agent that got knocked up and had to leave. Is that why you also went to visit Tina? To find out more information about me, seeing if you could buy yourself more time?'

'Tina was bad shit crazy. But she was smart.' Karis shrugged 'She'd heard about Damian through research, and she was more than happy to help me...with a little persuasion' Karis smirked.

'You drugged her' I stated. There was no surprise in my voice, just a proven fact.

'All is fair in love and war' She said.

'Where's the data chip that Damian wants?' I asked

'Hidden' She said 'Somewhere you will never find it' She chuckled but winced when the pain in her leg was too much.

'Really?' I laughed 'The whole somewhere you will never find it has to be the most cliche line ever. I wasn't born yesterday sweetie. Nor was this this baby' I pointed to my stomach. She scoffed but didn't say anything. I adjusted my chair so I was right in front of her. She stared at me and I studied her.

What do you see? Joe's voice floated into my mind. I tilted my head.

'You've been on the run, which means you wouldn't of had time to settle properly anywhere. Although when we saw you earlier, you has groceries, therefore you believe that you've bought yourself some time….3, 4 days I'm guessing?' I paused to think 'You're a very paranoid person, always wanting to be one step ahead. That's why you visited us at our home; you wanted to see how we operated. That little exchange between Zach and I told you everything you needed to know'

'That Zach is wayyyyy out of your league?' She tried to be funny. I smirked at her attempt to annoy me.

'You saw two dysfunctional people and thought you can outsmart us' I smiled as a thought occurred to me 'Zach and I are too good for each other, we're two impossible forces that work. But you couldn't see that. Is that why you phoned me? You knew you could call Zach but the fact that you could phone me meant that you could get to me if you needed to. A subtle way of saying that I wasn't protected. That I was vulnerable' I shook that thought away 'Anyway, back to the chip. I reckon it's somewhere nearby. You wouldn't want to risk leaving it somewhere unattended, considering the amount of trouble you went to to obtain it' I studied her closely, narrowing my eyes on the smudge of fuel on her jacket that had trickled down onto her jeans.

'It's in your car' I said. Karis stiffened and began to fight against her restraints even more.

'You're a bitch, Cameron!' She snapped 'You should have stayed away from Zach. You should have moved on when you had Sean!' She then smiled wickedly at me 'You should have burnt in the fire with Catherine'

I was about to hit her but Macey stopped me. Bex injected Karis again. Karis went limp quickly and unconscious.

'Cam' Macey's voice was soft against my boiling skin 'Cam, you're shaking'

'Find that chip' I hissed at her 'Then we take her to where she belongs'

Author's note: This chapter was quite a bit longer for all of you! Hope you enjoy it! What do you think now that Cammie and Karis were reunited? Once they find the chip, Cammie will go after Damian and Zach...will she get there too late? Find out on Monday xxx

GirafeRosie: Aw thank you! I can imagine Joe crawling on his hands and knees looking for Sean under the tables whilst Rachel is standing their laughing at her husband. What's been your favourite line in this story so far? I'm aiming for 30 chapters. Aww thank you, thank you! I'm so glad that you are loving my stories. I've got a Heist Society story coming next, then another GG story and hopefully after that another part to this series (I want to make this into a series now) xxx

Smiles180: I think Joe was going crazy because he's looked after Sean before, but not in this way, especially in a place like Gallagher with secret passages, trip wires, top secret information...I bet Rachel is handling this all so calmly where as Joe would be a worried Grandpa xxx

GallaghergirlsEmbassyrowFan: Glad you've finished them. Honestly I remember my GCSE's and I'm glad that they're over with. For A-Level, one of my history exams was 3 hours! And I had 3 papers to do! Honestly it was a blur. Bex, Macey, Liz and Cammie are just my absolute favourite; their relationship is brilliant! You'll find out the answer to the question soon xxx

ALLY CARTER 4 EVER: Karis left the CIA because she thought someone would come looking for her...clearly she's hiding something more. I'm not going to tell you the baby's gender nor the name until the very end of the story...mwhahahahahahaha xxx
