Running through Rook's head was only the sounds of trauma.

Ash: "So..." She edged closer to Rook, waiting for a response

Rook: "Just the sounds of..." He sighed

Ash: She'd sigh "You have that decoy file still?"

Rook: "I do, it's sitting on a shelf eating dust at my apartment."

Ash: "Let's get it then." She'd pull out her phone, dialing Doc and Twitch "Hey Doc, Twitch, meet at Rook's address. I will text you it, so get there and wait at the front of the apartment complex." She hung up, glancing back at Rook "I don't got all day now, let's go." She then walked in a fast pace out of the cafe

The two would walk silently to Rook's apartment, and as they got close, Doc and Twitch could be seen in the distance in their civilian clothes, which appeared to be quiet strange to Rook.

Rook: As he got to a short distance, he spoke up "Never saw you two out of uniform."

Doc: "That's because you would rather hide in your home instead of even going out with us for coffee... Anyways, mind letting us in Julien?" He pointed at the front door

Rook: "No worries, I got it." He stepped up to the door and unlocked it "The room is down the hall, second door to the left-" He would run to the door, unlocking it and motioning to come inside

The group walked in, and all would have a concerned expression as they turned to Rook.

Twitch: "Julien... you got a problem. What the hell is this mess..?" She picked up an empty soda can "I never saw you drinking stuff like this..."

Doc: "Did some American raid your apartment?"

Ash: "Very funny Doc." She would shake her head

Twitch: "Alright- let's get what we were here for, the document."

Rook: He would pull a document off a shelf "It's right here. Why... do you need it..?"

Ash: "Harry told us to, and I'm not sure why. I guess this file is actually not a decoy but actually a code to help us find a hostile, illegal drug operation somewhere in England."

Rook: "Why aren't the SAS called to deal with that..?"

Ash: "They are currently occupied with being stationed somewhere in Canada. Seamus and Mike definitely don't like staying there for the past few weeks."

Rook: "So, you guys are going to leave now?"

Ash: "Sounds like you are lonely, but I think we all know what happened here..."

Doc: "Harry tried finding you but couldn't so he sent us to search for you. Luckily you were last seen in the cameras Dokkaebi helped us around here and then we immediately flew here and waited for you to show up."

Rook: "Weird..."

Twitch: "Don't worry, we didn't invade your privacy that bad. Now, what do you think?" She crossed her arms

Ash: "You think you still are able to keep yourself in shape back in the Team?"

Rook: "I guess so." He held his hand out to Ash

Ash shook his hand, and had a firm smile, and would give him a pat on the shoulder.

Ash: "Good, because either way we were going to force you back to Hereford base. We got airplane tickets for you. For now, pack up what you got and speak with Harry once we get back to Hereford."
