"Do you want to go there? If you do you better get ready as soon as you can. That way we can spend more time there." Fiona said.

He finished his food and jumped up. "Done!"

"Can we take a taxi?" He and his mom could never afford it.

He grinned excitedly. "Let's go!" He rushed to the coatstand and threw on his jacket, then he raced out the door.

Fiona followed slightly slower smiling. She loved to see Alex so happy.

The V-Squad stood around their briefing room table, looking from one to the other.

No one spoke. A cloud of dread hung in the air.

"Alright, so, this is bad," Sam finally says, stating the obvious.

Angelica was the one who kept the V-Squad from getting caught. She payed off the right government officials and hired the best spies for the organization. She had the brains.

And as much as (most of) these people disliked her, they knew this fact. They were in trouble.

Now that other criminals had gotten word of Angelica's kidnap, they would swoop in like vultures. This organization was getting weaker, like a victim.

In Angelica's absence, Sam assumed role of leader.

"What do we do next?" someone asked.

That was the big question.

Fiona sat beside Alex in the back of the taxi. She couldn't get that news report out of her mind. How could anyone stoop so long for some sort of revenge plot? She found herself fuming and silent staring out of the window.

To get to the theme park, the taxi passed through a part of the city that was like Times Square--with big screens everywhere, along with billboards and such.

The large TV screens usually show news reports and such. Today, it showed the ransom tape. People were standing on the sidewalks, blocking the way for passerbys, looking up at the screens with shocked expressions.

Fiona's hand clenched around the handle that shut the door. She was trying so hard for Alex to not see her bad mood.
How could she have so many people lapping up the lie? All to get back at her.

Alex watched the TVs. The woman looked familiar, actually. He was sure he'd seen her on the news before.

Fiona took a deep breath to calm herself and looked to Alex.
"Everything OK?" she asked.

He nodded. "But are you okay?"

"You seem...mad."

Fiona smiled.
"I'm not mad at anything." Fiona replied.

"It's the video on the televisions, isn't it?" He looked at her and it seemed as if he was twice his age. That face showed much wisdom and calmness, despite him being just a kid.
