The hollythieves were happy they just pulled off another mission easily and was on their way back home.

Suddenly they started noticing something wrong because there was traffic on the express.

" That's weird, i planned this very well... there shouldn't be traffic on this road" Nate said.

" Maybe you calculated wrong.... it's okay, it happens" Olivia said.

" My calculation is right, it Should be...this shouldn't be happening....this mistake shouldn't be happening" Nate replied.

" Guys, guys... check this out" Kelvin said pointing at far front to the police at the checkpoint.

" Checkpoint?....Nate, are you aware of this?" Olivia asked.

" I'm not, there's never been a checkpoint here before...I picked this road carefully, something is not right" Nate said.

" Oh sh*t, I think I know who's behind this... it's him" Roxy said pointing at Agent Hawk who stood with the officers.

" They are checking every cars, what do we do now?" Alicia asked looking at Olivia.

" It's alright guys, no cause for alarm...I have an idea....Roxy, I need you to do something for me" Olivia said.

Mike stood with the police checking each cars one after the other carefully and Mike is vigilant as well.

A car drove very fast off course and break the checkpoint barricade and keep driving off.

" That's them" Mike said and quickly rushed into his car and drove after the car very fast and the police after him.

After they've gone far enough, the car they are pursuing slowed down which surprised Mike as he quickly parked before the car.

The police officers also surround the car, Mike came out and pulled out his gun as he slowly move towards the car.

" You're surrounded, come out of the car now" Mike said then the door opened and a lady came out shivering.

" Please don't shoot, please don't shoot" the lady said with her hands up.

" The rest of you come out now" Mike said.

" There's no one in there, I'm alone in the car....I only did what they told me" the lady said scarily.

" What do you mean?" Mike said then opened the door and was surprised to see no one else.

He went to check the trunk and found nothing inside and went back to the lady.

" Miss, Why did you run?...why did you break the barricade" Mike asked.

" They threatened to kill me, that's why...they pointed their gun at me and threatened to shoot if I didn't do as they say" she said.

" They put a bomb in my trunk and told me to run or they will blow my car off " she added crying.

" What bomb?" Mike said then went back to the trunk and bring out a toy.

" It's not a bomb... it's a toy" Mike replied.

" I didn't know....I thought it was a bomb when I heard the beeping sound"

" I only did that out of fear.... I'm so sorry" she added with tears in her face.

" oh sh*t, you've got to be kidding me" Mike said then quickly ran into his car.

" Did you see their faces?" Mike asked as he ignited the engine and she nodded negatively.

" I'm sorry, I couldn't...they were putting on mask" she replied then Mike quickly drove off back to the express.

The officers went after him back and the lady entered back into her car and a call came into her phone.

📞 " How did it go Roxy?" Olivia asked.

📞 " You're a genius Liv, they bought it.....they are heading back to the express...hope you've escaped?" Roxy asked.

📞 " Yeah, come back soon"

📞 " Sure... I'm on my way" Roxy said then ended the call and drove off.

.

Olivia and her team arrived back at their place and few minutes later Roxy also drove in and joined them.

" Way to go girl" Alicia said as she went to meet her sister.

" Good job Roxy, I knew you could do it... you're the only one that can pull it off, that's why I sent you" Olivia said.

" How did you know that?, Anyone can do that" Alicia said.

" No you can't, Roxy is talented in acting.....she can act better and make it believing" Olivia said.

" What about me?" She asked.

" You're good in seduction.... that's your super power" Olivia said and they laughed and she noticed Nate being moody and she moved closer to him.

" Nate, it's alright... nothing bad happen"

" What happened today is not your fault" Olivia said.

" Yes it is, the mission was supposed to be perfect,...that part was my job and there was a hiccup"

" That shouldn't have happened....that was close, we were almost caught today" Nate said angrily.

" Stop beating yourself up, we all know you planned it well but it's not your fault.... it's no one's fault" Olivia said.

" As you can see we have a new challenger in the game and he's smart, I'm sure he made up that barricade because the police aren't that smart"

" We just need to play it will next time, which is why I mentioned it earlier that we need to build our plans around him" she added.

" Today's mission is successful, let's look forward to our next mission... good job today" she said and they dismissed.

{Few Days Later}

Olivia's POV

.

We are all at the restaurant working as usual then I called them all together at the private office for assessment.

I was with Sam in the office while we wait for others to join us.

" Liv, there's something I think you should know" Sam said.

" What's up?"

" I....I met this girl few weeks ago and we've been talking for a while now and I like her, I just want you to know about it" he said and I smile.

" Wow, that's good.....you should, what's she into?....which job?" I asked.

" She work in a bank.... she's a banker" he replied.

" Oh, umm.... that's good but she can't visit our place, if you two have to meet, it will have to be outside, I hope you understand" I said.

" Of course, I'm aware of that... bringing her home is a bad idea" he replied.

" I'm glad you understand" I said.

" What about you?" He asked and I furrow my brow.

" What about me?" I asked in return.

" Relationship, having a man.... being happy?, Finding love?" He said and I smiled.

" Love is not for me, I don't have time for any man, do you really think any man can stand me?"

" I'm a very difficult person, love should step aside" I replied.

" Oh c'mon, don't say that.... maybe it's because you haven't found the right man for you" Sam said.

" Look Sam, I have a lot on my plate right now, if I'm going to be the leader then I need my brain a hundred percent" I replied.

" You're to love with your heart not your brain...stop making things difficult for yourself" he said and I giggled.

" Love cause confusion and I don't want that at the moment, I really need to make use of this brain in other to make a perfect plan"

" I'm not ready for that, the mission has to be done and besides we haven't gone that far, this is just the beginning" I said.

" Don't worry about me Sam, I'll be fine.... let's all keep our focus on the mission" I added and others started coming in.

.

" We have 30 minutes before going back out there, so let's be hurry" I said immediately everyone took their sit.

" Our next target is Nicolas Daniels, and he also own a rich company and it's time to pay him a visit"

" There's something you need to know about the remaining six people we are going after"

" We are not only going to take everything in their account but also their biggest treasure which is in their possession"

" Each of these six people have a very costly stone with them, each of the these stones are worth billions"

" We are to retrieve these stones and also clear their account as well, this is just getting interesting" I concluded.

" How are we doing this?" Kelvin asked.

" I already make out the plan but there's just one problem" I replied.

" What do you mean?" Roxy asked.

" Nate, explain" I said turning to Nate.

" I surveyed the company yesterday.....the security is very tight and our best mode of entrance is through the rooftop" Nate explained.

" The rooftop is the closest part to the vault where the stone is located and we can access the vault with Mr Richard's private card" he narrated.

" So what's the problem?" Roxy asked.

" First, The door on the rooftop can only be opened from the inside which is almost impossible" Nate replied.

" No one is allowed in that area of the building except the technician and some other workers"

" So in other to get the door open, someone has to open it from the inside...and secondly, we are going to need Mr Richard's card" he concluded.

" Wow, that is almost impossible" Kelvin admitted.

" Nah, I won't have that.....we can still make this work, I just need to think it through" I said thinking of a way.

" Maybe we can take it as our last mission while we go for other targets till we find solution" Alicia suggested.

" Nah, we have to follow accordingly to the list, we are going after him next...just give me some time" I replied.

" Uh-uh, I think we have a problem" Sam said.

" Don't worry Sam, I'll figure something out...I just need to think very well" I replied absently.

" No, that's not what I meant....I mean look here" he said and we turned to him pointing to the system showing the people in the restaurant.

We draw closer to the computer and our eyes caught on someone unexpected and we were surprised.

" Agent Hawk?"

" How is this possible?" Roxy asked.

" What's he doing here?.....how did he find us?" Kelvin also said while I stare at him and study him.

" How did he know about us?" Alicia said.

" Calm down guys, let's not just into conclusion yet" I replied.

" What do we do now?" Nate asked.

" Roxy, the day you met him...did he touch you?" I asked.

" No, he didn't even get close to me....we didn't have any contact" Roxy replied.

" so Since he didn't put a tracker on you or in anyway follow you back to our place...."

" We didn't expose ourselves in any way for him to locate us, so this might not be what we are thinking" I replied.

" What should we do?" Sam asked.

" Everybody, back to work.... Roxy, you can't go outside, he saw your face once...so we can't take that risk"

" I'll meet with him" I said.

" What will you say?" Nate asked.

" Find out what he knows, if he knew about us then he must be very good and if not... then it's just a coincidence"

" There's only one way to find out"
