A half hour earlier
Tess was filing paperwork as usual, the day was uneventful for him nothing had happened in a while. He was about to go file more paperwork as most agents did on workdays. Being an agent wasn't all mission to mission, there were a lot of forms to file, murders to cover up. Agents would pray for a mission on a boring day like this. *riiiiiiing* after the first ring of his desk phone he picked it up. "Hello?" He said looking at yet another document.

"Tess we've got a problem, get to the conference room now." Jason his right hand man said before immediately hanging up. Tess thought it might be important so he lept up from his chair and ran to the door before stopping in his tracks. He immediately turned around and looked under his desk to see his SAW and his 45. Pistol propped up with special hooks. He grabbed the pistol and put it behind his back and in his pants. He then ran out the door and to the conference room as quickly as possible. When he arrived he slowed to a stop and straightened out his suit. Afterwards he pushed through the big glass double doors to a room filled with people many without chairs, he then proceeded to sit in the desk in the corner near the door.

"Are the cameras off?" Tess questioned looking toward Jason

"Of course." He responded

"Why have you brought everyone to the conference room Jason?" He asked once again

"We've got a mole from a snatch and bag operation and they just recently got the Wattersons and Alec." Jason said with a straight face, at this everyone looked down except for Tess who had a look of shock on his face.

"But I thought they didn't want the press on their ass." Tess said pounding his fist on the desk.

"they're sick of Alec being able to walk away scott free, so they did it even if the press would be on it." Jason said looking down at a piece of paper he had. Tess scratched his chin in thought.

"Did he put up a fight?" Tess asked hoping he didn't.

"Not really, according to the mole he only held them at gunpoint but the mole was able to talk him out of it." Jason replied to Tess and he nodded his head.

"Good, good. Then we'll have less problems in the future." He said tapping his fingers on the desk.

"Wait if he's coming here then we can set him free and put our plan into motion." One man spoke out looking at Tess

"Yeah then he can kill the minister and take his place as the leader!" Another spoke. Tess was angered by this as he was sick of everyone thinking he should lead them. He couldn't think straight, he was blinded with fury so he said the first thing that came to his mind.

"He can't be the leader of the agency...because he betrayed us, he's been working for the others the entire time!" He said in anger, at this everyone gasped and grew sad and angered faces.

"Well I say we torture him!" His right hand man Jason growled through gritted teeth.

"Yeah!" They all yelled in unison, but this left Tess to think 'what have I done?'

He was about to continue on with other matters when a large man burst through the double doors with twenty men in tow. Immediately everyone reacted by flipping the big table and and pulling out their guns. Tess then proceeded to dive behind the table and do the same. Bullets rained down on the table and Tess thanked god he brought his pistol. He immediately pulled it out and fired with the rest of the rebellion who had just started firing. Tess looked around shocked as he saw his men dying one by one before his eyes. The other side faired no better. As they all fell Tess thought quick and realized he was covered in blood so he got into position and acted dead. Luckily that was only one fourth of the rebellion.

When the dust finally settled he heard them walking over to their side. They walked around the table and looked at everyone, they were wearing what appeared to be swat uniforms that sported the agencies insignia. He held his as he was looked towards, he had his eyes wide with shock and he kept his pupils as still as possible. They moved on and soon shots were heard. 'Looks like someone had a stroke of bad luck' he thought as they looked at each and every one.

"Clear!" One said and soon they all filed out and left them there for pick up later.

After they all left Tess got up. Only two others got up with him, and he didn't see Jason anywhere.

"Huhhh...come on we have to get moving they might come back. We need to signal the rest of the rebellion." He said to which they both nodded and Tess grabbed three mp5's that were lying next to three dead agents. He threw each of them one. He then ran out the door and proceeded to go to the nearest fire alarm and pull it. A universal signal for the rebellion to put the plan into action.

Other places in the agency
The entire Watterson family and Alec was being carried in the office by many agents. "Double time it, there's no telling when they'll wake up, we need to get them to the boss immediately." The leading agent said to the others. They immediately started jogging. Then they heard the fire alarm. They then immediately tried to run out the doors acting quick, but before they could bullets rained down on them. They all fell to the ground and dropped the cap-tees and out from the shadows stepped Jason.

Back to Tess
After pulling the alarm immediately heard gunfire and screaming. He immediately started running towards the ministers office. Everyone should be doing the same. And as he ran he had to shoot a couple of other agents and soon other members of the rebellion soon joined behind him. There were no chances of friendly fire as everyone knew each other and he memorized every face he had come across. The crowd that had formed behind him soon turned into a march as rumors were spread while Tess marched along with them. Most of the rumors were about Alec. Tess frowned whilst he marched, but quickly recovered as they approached the ministers big office. The two guards that were standing at attention in front of the door acknowledged him and opened up the doors for him to enter. He entered himself while they cheered him on. He then closed the doors behind him.

He turned back around and looked at the minister. He was built and he had been looking at him intently. He was a human, they all knew this but didn't quite care until now. He had slicked back blond hair and a formal smile."Tess what brings you here?" He said not ceasing his wide smile.

"Don't give me that crap you know exactly why I'm here Samson!" Tess growled in anger

"Yes, yes, here to kill me are you?" Samson said still smiling

"You knew you were gonna fall someday, why not end the suffering early." Tess said turning off the safety to the pistol that was at his side.

"Yes I knew I was gonna fall but I never thought you'd do it yourself. You were always sickened by me." He said putting his hands behind his back and sighing.

"The CIA was on your case from day one it was only a matter of time." Tess said

"Ooh another surprise, you were working for the CIA the entire time? Well the CIA can't do anything to us we're higher than them!" He said leaning forward

"No I'm not working for them, they talked to me and left us to our own affairs. If we won they'd clean up the mess. And if you won there would be a missile heading straight for you. But they'd rather lessen the blood shed." Tess explained raising the pistol

"Well then. I'll see you in hell and say hi to Alec for me." He said and he pressed a button he had on his desk and the next thing he knew he was flying through the glass doors.

It only battered him enough to make him almost black out. The crowd that was around him when he managed to get up was large but not very. Upon asking them he realized he had been laying there for only ten minutes. So he got up and ran with one thing on his mind, Alec...
