Four days but no word from Jimmy led Penelope walking to his house.

When she saw him, she was devastated. He looked like a madman; his hair was scattered and he looked dull. She never knew he could look like that.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzYemrqsW0
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZYI5vVkFm
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFWXY031yr
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuVXK0u3wu
He released her grip on him and stared.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuLhB2w0pJ
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztTvjFeWeU
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPSBTojtFF
“Just do as I say okay.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgdVAu46WQ
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqARDBWFMY
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHWDpc9vbL
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS3KDSjWnc
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT4MjBA2UM
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofEV3lyWVS
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbaKxFS9Mu
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5hIa9N6G4
“So are you gonna ignore me again, after depriving me of the due care because of what happened?” She asked. “Tell me Jimmy. Tell me.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bZjhObHmY
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkAgxvLiQb
“Fine. If you can’t do it for me, do it for Abigail. Who knows, you could find out the culprit and the real truth.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J8rDAFmcy
Jimmy turned to her swiftly and she grinned.

Mr Roy sat expectantly formimg a steeple on his desk and leaning forward muttering prayers when the two people he expected walked in. he sprang up and cried. “ I am so disappointed you eventually decided to come “
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT1IET5nJP
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQ4J21EMeA
“ Ironic Expression.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMxeCyWfYm
Penelope laughed.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Aw5vrU3wn
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQXL0eMmw8
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfMjATc8wo
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dFfqC2Ugw
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMHYrClGM5
“Now I’m here. So what’s the deal?”

The five of them sat round the table; Mr Roy, Penelope, Jimmy, Neil and the ever arrogant but smart Batton.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iHPi4kewr
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8M5qDq7kW
“Well I don’t think it’s everyone,” Jimmy said, glancing at Batton. “But don’t worry, this is the last mission. I repeat Mr Roy, the very last.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvDs0DZuLF
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lRitZa4ce
But he did. When Jimmy was still at work, they were both competing for the best. Jimmy was always far ahead and that was what spoiled their relationship. Earlier they had been friends. In fact, Batton was the one who talked Jimmy in to be part of the SF and now he regretted. Just when he thought he had no competitor anymore, Jimmy came strolling in and receiving praises. Ill-made relationship they say, was hard to cut off.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuzsl81IwE
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw6LC4AiuV
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFXWKsrY53
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmrVxTL28Z
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaNyPdcQnl
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIs3LsrdYX
“Without your help, the SF found out that there is going to be a party at the leading hotel ballroom in two days and there will be an exchange of USB where a vital information we must get our hands on is,” Batton started proudly. “We also found the safe where the USB will likely be kept that night. So I don’t see any reason you were invited back.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSVyaGhzPL
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYBPmotFPi
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHJ1rPdXUz
“That is where you will come in Jimmy. So far your record have never been beaten,” Mr Roy said. “You are all attending and participating in the mission but we need you to do the most dangerous part. Getting to the safe.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzs17RgaFY
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDLhfeg7ZK
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqTSTySZNz
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1S3AziGZAq
Neil shrugged.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuewxuVTPAA
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9RRDszAzp
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8uYroJS5o
“He is Mr Lewis, a multi-billionaire. An old money, his family is into glass,” She explained. “Our latest conclusion is that he is only a mere sponsor of the upcoming massacre and that is because he will make a profit from it.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0a9EouSNd
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhnziQLJL9
“How about we do it this way? I will be the thief, Penelope will be the seducer, and Neil along with Batton will be the guards,” Jimmy suggested. “As for the pickpocket, I have someone in mind.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cYvop0W2E
The car pulled in front of an old cottage. “Remain in the car,” Jimmy instructed and got down. He walked to the door and knocked on it softly. In some seconds, the door opened and someone stood in the doorway.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbixGwsGmuF
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmqrUBrNEM
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTAnSLvhGn
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PXDg8mOay
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXfwy8oIfD
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqd4NbRygm
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk2zvRdUCx
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0JmkJ5jrN
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfNjkahT4Y
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc1kiHFEYN
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNI78QEryZC
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXM56YQeg1
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb6M45ZpI9
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYy9szpMcr
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aTOlUc34U
Jimmy grinned.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4krWjCDVGl
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFaGaNmrvU
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
376Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Lhh8OSlJ7
“If I don’t survive, remember you are the one who made me do this,” Jimmy repiled sending a wave of fear mixed with shock to Penelope. Then he added, "Don’t worry,I’ll be fine.”
