Oh, that was the plan.
“He’s here, and now so am I. I saw the footage from the parking lot. Gene got it to me. Now I know where he’s hiding,” she stated. “We’re not trapped here with him. He’s trapped here with us.”
Oh, well, that was a damn accurate statement.
Elizabeth checked the time on her watch.
“For now, I have to get our two mystery victims to Tony. I need to know who they are. That’s going to be a clue as to what his next plan is. I wouldn’t put it past Devon that he dug them up here, and transported them to DC to play with me.”
Ethan went there.
“He didn’t give you fresh victims for a reason. He wants to slow you down. This will make it more difficult. Tony said they have been deceased a while.”
She was aware.
Elizabeth knew freshly dug up bones from ones that had never seen interment. She’d bet her boots and badge they’d been prepared for burial by a funeral home.
“Well, I have the best team, and I’ll get the answers. I have to focus on the clues and nothing he throws at me to fuck with me.”
Yeah, she really did.
That was her superpower.
“They get moved next,” she said, pointing at the bins. Already, she had an inkling where this was going, but she wanted to make sure.
She needed proof.
Then, she’d make her move.
When Demeter uncovered the two sets of remains on the floor in the clear boxes, he shuddered.
“They are looking at me.”
Yeah, and now, they knew why they had been covered. That was kind of creepy, even for them.
Uriel popped his head in.
“Second transport arrived. It’s Saint. He’s dropping the vehicle off. He transported from FBI West.”
Good.
It was almost time to go.
Only, they didn’t get to say anything else. There was the telltale sound of boots running up the stairs to get inside of the jet.
Security reacted but then relaxed when Saint came rushing into the jet, past them, and at his husband.
“WINN!”he said, reaching him, and going against his husband’s body. There were tears in his eyes, and it was clear that he needed that contact.
Raphael held him.
“I’m okay, Baby. No worries, I’m home,” he said, kissing his husband on the forehead as he held him.
Oh, well, there were worries all over the goddamn place, unfortunately.
Ivan was curious.
“If you’re here, who is on Chris and Gene?” he asked.
