Nate

"Sophie I need you to go in first and work your magic on the guard with cap on he has the gun. Eliot I don't need you to attack I need you to just pass by the guards then head to the second floor. Hardison will walk you through it from there understood."

"Yes but wouldn't it be easier just to-"

"No I am sure Sterling already has a set of men upstairs now if they know there is an intruder they will have us in a second. No we just have to slip past them so they have no suspicions."

"OK I am in, Eliot get ready." Sophie said.

"Sophie the guard your after his name is John Lee he is twenty-seven and is known to be a player so watch yourself."Hardison said while pressing a number of keys.

" I got it." Sophie said.

"John Johnny"

" I am over here."
" Well here you are I have been calling you all morning and you can't answer one. You were suppose to meet me at the Cafe today but I guess I wasn't important enough for you to spend your precious time with."

"Excuse me who are you?"

"I am Alexander McCray your girlfriend how can you not remember me? I think that alcohol is getting to your head."

"Oh I think I remember you your from the bar."

"Yes I didn't think you were this slow are you OK?"

" Yes,Can we please step outside?"

"O sure now you want my attention, but I am running out of patience and I feel as though I only have five minutes left."

"Lets just go outside sweetheart." he said looking rather embarrassed.

"Fine."

"Nice work Sophie now Eliot it is your show."

"I am on it."

Eliot

Oh they had to pick me to go in really they never send Hardison in to get beat up. Man my shoulder still hurts from the last con. Hardison really needs to buff up his fingers are strong but he really needs to work on his body. Now I have to play a game of hide and go seek which I haven't been good at since I was young. Yeah lets see Hardison open up a can of whup ass oh wait he can that is why I am here.

"I am in Hardison"

"Down the hall there is a guard to the right he is unarmed but behind him is a secret room leading to another pair of stairs."Hardison said

I did exactly what he said seems like the guard and Hardison would have gotten along seeing he was as weak as a toothpick and only took two punches till he was out like a light.

"Come on speed it up I am up here already."

"Going up the stairs should lead you straight to where Parker is."

"Sterling isn't a good mastermind after all."

"Eliot" I heard a familiar voice say.

"Yes is that you Parker?"

"Yes I can't move please come get me."

" I am"

I ran upstairs to see a scared crying Parker who had her hands tapped up and a bomb connected to her. Her eyes were pleading to death and then I remembered something Hardison told me. Yellow wire are the ones that you expect will stop the bomb but thy are the ones that set it off when you have a yellow wire the blue wire will deactivate it all.

'OK Parker I am going to get you out of here."

I took out my knife and with a steady hand I broke the blue wire I heard a rumble and thought I made a mistake but then it zoomed out and the blinking light died.

"I got her Nate we are heading out."

I carried her princess style all they way to the van where we all embraced her lucky she was alive. Sophie cried Hardison almost hugged her to death and well me and Nate just kept it cool. We went home happy that we got Parker back and even still won the con she was OK no scratch was on her but it all ended when we got to the house.

On the counter was a note saying:

It was all a diversion I got my painting you got Parker good deal right. You never trick a mastermind because a mastermind never gets sloppy. I'll let you go for now but tell Parker happy birthday I hope she enjoyed it because I did I will be back for you sweetheart.

Parker let out a sob. It was her Birthday how could he know and we didn't. I would yell at Parker right now but what stopped me was her face expression and how she was holding her stomach as if she were going to vomit but instead she ran out the office and before we could catch up she was already gone.

"Well happy birthday."

"Well I don't know how we can fix this we can't steal a birthday."
