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.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNAdi0aiYL
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinu4vyL99C
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVK7e62k7C
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr9IGczMvL
He released her grip on him and stared.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C8pUqcrTj
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLwjblQKhm
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM8Rgjkh3G
“Just do as I say okay.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbA1X0Ed14
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEyaH6c8y5
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAile3oKft
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTJEZTkdBN
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdhZc6KcY3
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ej2Ax7Kn
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF9QSkzlCj
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPJfDpyC9g
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddEJhD6lTw
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9r4eAiBVY
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuSZlWkkOM
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 “
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE51sPHIKZA
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmZPnSLTHI
“ Ironic Expression.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTdIBtDjAr
Penelope laughed.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1tyWqcLNM
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtHbI5S3sT
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4fLzZzNZb
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNfEf4uvsS
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucSjePRffr
“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.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXjRMyyGEr
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0YGDTmtA3
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3xK4LdvhT
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LCLAuKUNZ
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.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCAYnLtkaU
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzJqCqsY4L
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCWzb0d4qv
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QPu9G3FOF
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfdxTpytQa
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYfZbbcfeu
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE7BXkkiqf
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUU1TZVmBP
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm15Zu9gA4
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUb5Dd6Tmj
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5hxOQ5oZ0
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgn2RYzhZR
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloykvoZT5Z
Neil shrugged.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLZp3t97Yf
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsAgxWbpkk
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX8HfNeEI2
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsgmO8IHcO
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJemzNkNFFP
“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.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkS5oV5UDj
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.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMssI9jj6t
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UKEUNlKOe
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZtiC4WAEL
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZXOf7jsYb
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAwdZARIZj
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQBmkPhLrh
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCtV0lRiDH
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSdlV6MkKe
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpmP190wOp
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BZPO2H5G7
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44mIIZdgxi
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAqVTojGsV
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa98qDuNI3
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2yYUvVYn3
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeDdPwbwB0
Jimmy grinned.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSs64CIzLq
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiZilr2vhF
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPgcVl5lzz
“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.”
