The Body Swap (completed)

Ethan's footsteps reverberated within the hallway. Two guards were behind him, keeping a keen eye for every move he makes.

They led him into an interrogation room, made him sit down and left. After a minute, Daniel entered.

Ethan smiled and leaned back.

"Hello Mr. Carlton." Daniel began taking a seat.

"Cut the crap Daniel just call me Ethan."he responded still with a smug look on his face.

Daniel ignored this and continued to talk. " Ever since you landed here on Italy you have caused nothing but danger and destruction. Citizens were put in harms way, properties were destroyed, people were killed."

"We both know I'm not the bad guy here."

"Yes but you are also not the good guy." Daniel stated calmly.

"So what am I?"

"That is what I want to find out right now." This made Ethan chortle.

Daniel stood up and walked towards his seat. He leaned down and stared at the amused Ethan.

" You think you are the hero of this story... Well you are most certainly not. Even with Mr. Ricci's confession, that won't be enough to save your ass from going behind bars understood? Same as is with your team." His face was serious and his posture signified that he was the boss in that room.

" Three words. Wipe. My. Ass." he mocked and didn't expect a fist hit his face that almost caught him off balance from the chair.

Ethan was surprised but he kept his cool. Once again he received a hard blow. This time the chair fell back and his back hit the floor. He groaned in pain. His bandaged wound stung.

Daniel grabbed his shirt with his right hand.
"Watch that mouth of yours or I will make sure you never see the outside world again." With that he stood up to leave but not before looking at  Ethan one last time.

"Goodbye Mr. Carlton. I'll be seeing you again soon enough. Oh and by the way I already took care of the others."

When Daniel left, Ethan glimpsed at the thing that he managed to slip on his hand just as he grabbed his shirt a moment ago. It was the key for the cuffs.

Come to think of it the way Daniel grabbed him was done in a way that his back was against the CCTV camera and the people watching from behind the wall . Ethan stood up, grabbed his fallen chair and took a seat. He watched as another officer entered the room and he smiled mischievously.

Alex, Luke and Vanessa were tired when they arrived at the airport.  Being jet-lagged felt like crap and all they wanted to do was get home and rest.

The first person to greet them was none other than Nick. Alex smiled and hugged him. "I'm very glad to see you safe Nick."

"And you must be Alex." they broke the hug and Nick looked at his older brother. " I suppose your switching problem has been solved?"

"You got that right Nick." Luke replied with a warm smile on his lips.

"Hey why don't we all go at the beach mansion and I'll cook something nice for the three of you.. What do you say?" Vanessa suggested.

All three of them nodded in agreement and they grabbed a taxi.

As soon as they arrived there, Alex threw herself on the couch while Luke  accompanied Nick in looking around. Vanessa went straight to the kitchen to prepare a meal.

"This place is amazing." Nick said in awe.

"Yeah it is." Luke stated, standing beside him as both of them watched the view from the glass wall facing the bay.
