"Well looks like it's just us ladies now" Alex gave them a sly wink making them both feel nervous. They both held their guns and pointed them to Alex, she chuckled.
"You think I'm scared of you two really? God think highly of yourselves? Hey Catherine how does it feel to have my sloppy seconds?" Alex had changed for the worst, there didn't seem to be a trace of the Alex they knew at all.
Vincent was concious but stayed still with his eyes closed, he had only been out for a few seconds thanks to his ability perfect timing he thought to himself. He could tell no one had moved in the room, the way he fell he was closer to Alex, he could blur in a moments notice if she tried anything to hurt them. He didn't want her to get trigger happy with the tranq or any other gun she had in her possession.
"What happened to you?" Cat wanted to keep her talking, the longer they had to come up with a plan.
"What you mean the improvement? Oh honey I just headed to the hair salon, hmm looks like you need a new do as well mix it up a bit" She giggled like bratty schoolgirl. "Oh you mean in general? Aww it was thanks to they lovely people in Muirfield, they took me in a stray dog after I was abandoned and shipped off by you. I guess you were just jealous of me in case Vincent got bored you. They trained me to be unstoppable against the likes of you" Her face turned into disgust like a bitter taste in her mouth.
"What this is revenge for his rejection?" Keep it going Cat, come on talk..Cat thought to herself.
"Aww that's cute coming from you. No Just doing the right thing getting of.."pointing to Vincent "that..." Back to the disgusted face. There was a flicker of movement and shining blonde hair, it was Evan he must of gotten worried after a while no contact, he was armed and staying low. Alex was surrounded.
"How dare you speak about my Fiancé like that you bitch!" That hit a sore spot for Catherine. Alex looked at her shocked for a second then back to being G.I Jane.
"Seriously? You're gonna marry him? Been there and almost done it. Take my advice run or better yet I can shoot you if you want? That would be quicker." Catherine felt she could be sick listening to her.
"Hey don't speak to her like that you psycho, we can take you out if you'd like and take you somewhere nice and dark where you won't see the light again how's that?" Bitchy Vargas was in the building taking no prisoners. "Quick question where's this dude Callum Vernadez? You kill him to keep him silent or something?" Tess was copying Cat, no wonder they were amazing partners on the force, they could read each other.
"Oh the old guy? He died over 6 months ago, you really need to update your Intel it's lacking information like that. At least my group know everything" A smirk played across her face, she knew something important but wasn't letting on what.
Evan spoke to JT through the ear piece and microphone updating him. "Use the smoke bomb it will blind for her a few moments, Vincent is only playing down he's awake his new ability makes sure of that. Do it now" JT urged him to take action proving his loyalty. He threw it through the window taking Alex by surprise, just as the smoke filled the room Vincent blurred to her unarming her and knocking Alex out using the tranquillizer gun she brought.
They cuffed Alex and put her in the back of the car calling Mosby on the way.
"Good work. Take her the base there and lock her up, I'm sure if we ask nice enough she will spill her secrets." David Mosby hung up, he was proud of them getting results so fast in their mission. They headed towards Jurupa Valley they were met by several agents and took the unconscious woman from the trunk and to a cell.
"What will happen to her now?" Vincent still cared for his first love but knew when to draw a line for his concern.
"We hold her for now and see what we can get out of her. If she doesn't comply we may need to use excessive force to get the information out of her. Don't be concerned she won't die it will just be pain" The team were allowed to view while they tried to get information out of Alex. After hours of different tactics there was no hope.
"Let me go in and talk to her." JT thought he could help in some way. Everyone looked at him unsure. "I can use the whole we used to be friends and grew up together blah blah blah. You can't do it big guy she hates your guts, same to you Cat. What we gotta lose?" Tess started to wheel him but JT stopped her. He wanted to walk him feeling like a normal man again.
JT strolled into the interrogation room and looked at Alex chained to the table with only a plastic cup of water, in case she wanted to smash it and use it as a weapon. "Hey Alex how's it hanging" He stayed relaxed giving the friendly approach.
"Oh you know chilling by a pool all day long, going shopping you know the usual." Alex was being overly sarcastic while giving him an evil look. "Seriously you're the best they got they must be desperate." Alex looked unimpressed at this attempt.
"Why not? We're friends right?" Keep it calm not let get onto...be cool be cool... JT was mentally calming himself.
"I guess so 'friend'" Alex spat.
"So can I ask why? Why come running to me?" Step by step hoping he would some information out of her.
"To gain your trust, infiltrate you. Updating my boss on what going after Renyolds went cold. He was such a loser I see where Catherine get's it from." Alex smirked. "I had inject Vincent somehow." Oh now she's spilling.
"What do you mean?" Alex remained silent. She planted the seed now was letting it loose. "TELL ME!" JT was angry and concerned from his friend. Vincent had to come in to remove, as he did Alex winked at him confusing him.
"We need to do tests on you V if she's injected you with something." Tess remained calm for her love. Tess, Vincent, JT and Evan headed to the lab in the building. Cat stayed with Alex if they were anything she might slip accidentally that the agents didn't know about she was there.
Vincent laid on the examination bed ready to be prodded. JT and Evan took 10 vials of blood from him for different tests it could take a matter of hours. Vincent helped out after being so used to this sorta thing from over the years trying to find a cure with JT. Tess headed back to Catherine.
"I got something guys." Evan and Vincent gathered around JT "Remember how you collapsed the moment Alex got close to you? She injected you with a serum that forced you to mutate, but I'm guess it was to make you worse, but because of your already existing abilities it counteracted it causing your durability, I guess they weren't expecting that." JT was feeling proud of himself. "We should run more tests in case it backfires again.
Catherine went into the interrogation room, wanting to rattle Alex up enough she would slip.
"Hello Alex" Alex's eye went dark the moment she seen the cool looking Catherine, she knew how to act while interrogating someone, years of being a cop was paying off now instead of becoming a lawyer.
"What do you want barbie cop? I can't be bothered answering your questions on how to keep Vincent satisfied." Fake smiles were everywhere.
"As much as I'd like the girl talk with you really, I got a job to do and I would like to do without hurting you.." She tried to sound sincere implying she cared about Alex.
"You really think I'm gonna talk? I'm just waiting here" What? Catherines mind went racing thinking about that sentence.
"For who Vincent?"
"No my rescuers they should be here any minute now"
"They don't know where you are though?" Catherine was still confused.
"Wow you lot are dumb, I let you capture me so I can lead my team here to your base and take you out, didn't you check for trackers anywhere?" The evil grin was making Catherine angry. She hit Alex right in the face causing her to pass out.
"That felt good" She said to Tess when she arrived through the door, but everyone was rushing around preparing for an attack. "Lets get the guys and update them." They ran to the lab telling them about Alex, and the guys filled them in about Vincent. It all began to make sense now.
"Evan stay with Tess and JT and keep low and hidden until we come back for you." Catherine wanted to protect her friends. Vincent and Catherine head out the door weapons at the ready. Ten minutes later the squad descended. It was chaos. Shots were fired everywhere. Vincent managed to get most of them all after killing a couple of agents of their own.
Everyone regrouped in the lab. No one had attacked them which was good but damaged some equipment but it was replaceable. Unfortunately for them Alex managed to escape in the process. They began to track her immediately not wasting any time.
An agent came in, no one knew his name "David Mosby is on his way" Just what they needed their boss...
