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.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxHVhN3S6C
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CEUwaDRBe
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfnS2XpLma
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTp0PFKCee
He released her grip on him and stared.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81OpGbX7eq
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE8chEMdZN
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxTepMGWAx
“Just do as I say okay.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiBmSh8v5z
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77JKmieFqY
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eA7t8aorr
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7axEWHWjJ
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIyGWqcwnI
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDV9fquki5
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqdWH9MzZl
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbqSGjLLvE
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBohwdbHdav
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHnemvZWkf
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmGA5MDGos
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 “
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe84hz5nQYj
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLYFAa85Bx
“ Ironic Expression.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJYSm0EZV6
Penelope laughed.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGI5JFXc85R
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53tbHyNn3r
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdozVqlBNSc
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrHEjSg57I
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBZWmGUM4Q
“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.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZkKLCtJoi
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznN8Pui6qn
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSI8tgcuED3
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaVGCVhkxD
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.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOb2DbHkIh
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfsrrxZNrx
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0x6ODYIzY
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt4pZr1QsP
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVwVytr29z
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKuWQGb9Uj
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGS1igfNOF
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHk47jbdBF
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShDrmrWEoG
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCrS8DlMzR
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1dvIcqSTj
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg6eR1RK5D
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUAVoLt9y4
Neil shrugged.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4c94S3eTO
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7HqXIVMK5
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XLsqIaEaK
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9BcHJViFi
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOSkblmYwB
“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.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUKQPIcPNr
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.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFdT65G1NE
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJ1WsxQlpa
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xLp1TmuWg
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqePhplE0Kn
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJnRkVLbSd
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEhxsoBwO8
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3nXXLWXWl
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7mArWnPmF
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIsDmaDiIQ
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9v0DNZZ3V
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhw0dsGJkv
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7x6QyZDW9
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5OdaCe7G3
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I3NzcTaNh
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbnOD8KBPA
Jimmy grinned.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylWLq8r9F9
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLsmDkTE6x
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vUPtvblTh
“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.”
