A Life Less Than Ordinary

Brooks

Carl Brooks
I am so mad I black Rodriguez eyes. You are getting off easy after setting us up.
Public Defender Walter Douglas
Carl brooks wants a deal and so do the other three men we took into custody. He tells us everything and how he and his three friends were duped into thinking it was an acting gig with a one shot deal. They never saw cameras or anything else, but were told everything was recorded with hidden cameras and staff was hidden as well. Okay these four are stupid. They tell me there are two security people who got inside information and that is how they were able to kidnap miss Steele and mr Grey so easily. Sam Reynolds and Deborah Arluss. He tells us exactly where the boat is docked. Port of Allyn and Carmine Alexander has a home there that they are holding the couple in the basement. They plan to take the money and leave them there to die according to the script. The other three tell me the same story. He gives me the address and the name of the boat. Jose set this up making them scapegoats.
Carl Brooks
They have others, but I don't know how many more. They plan to grab the money and leave.
Taylor
I found out who the bogus security are and contact Sawyer and have him call in unknowns he can trust. He does it immediately and we get their phones bugged and tracked. They aren't part of the teams near the billions. So we move the money into one if the bulletproof cars Christian bought. We use it and park it at the old Steele family home. Then we take the other bulletproof car load it with the bags that look like what they asked us to deliver the money to them in.
Christian
Something familiar about two of these people. Then I notice the perfume and mannerisms. Sarah, I definitely have to proceed with caution. Then I realize they have stayed away from us until now, so something must be going wrong with their plans. She has spoken at all and neither has the other person and they have perfume on as well. Two females and no males from what I can tell. If they are talking then we must know them. Anastasia is still having morning sickness. They have had to keep a bucket near so she can throw up. It reeks. We both need a shower and clean clothing. She is sleeping a lot and running a fever.
Anastasia
I can't stay awake and the vomiting isn't helping me and I smell horrible. They have been rough with me, well these two in general have. They don't speak within earshot of us, so I am sure we must know them.
Taylor
I grab the two moles to watch the car with the bags of what they think is the money and I keep the keys on me at all times. It is ready for the drop.
FBI agent Carol Forbes
My team is in position and ready to go inside. Everything checked out and we watch as two women remove their mask and smoke. They are keeping their voices low, but why? I have two go up and silence them and cuff them and put them in the prisoner van. We hid that well. We decide we can't sit and wait much longer.
FBI agent Bob Everett
We decide to go inside after checking the area for any others and we go inside and three guys with masks on try for the basement but are stopped. They try for their guns but we beat them again. Suddenly a noise from outside gets our attention. There were four more we didn't know about they are disarmed immediately.
Forbes
I see the two laying on the mattress and it reeks of vomit here. I start untying them and taking the masks off and we get an ambulance for both of them. The boat is being taken into evidence.
Anastasia
I wake up smelling better and feeling okay. No ropes tying me up or tape over my face. I recognize a hospital when I see the ceiling. I ask about Christian he says I am in the other bed.
Christian
Are you feeling any better, you had a lung infection from aspirating your own vomit when they taped your mouth up. Sarah and Alex Sanders were the ring leaders . Jose was in on it as well. They asked a billion dollars for each of us. Your mother had it close by and ready. She said your grandpa Steele told her she might need a huge kidnapping amount and they put back billions in cash to assure we got back. But the kidnappers weren't going to allow us to live. Jane is incredible. So I have not been able to give you something but I am not sure if you want to accept it and get married or not. I get up get the ring and kneel down and ask her to be my wife.
Anastasia
I say my mom is an incredible person and yes I will marry him, but not a big wedding. I want to do what Mia and Gregg did.
Three days later the Steele's, Taylor's, Grey's and Cook's wait at home for Anastasia and Christian Grey arrive home. They are having a bbq for all the family members. Gabriel came for an hour and Eloise and his nurses and bodyguards have to take him home.
Eloise
Gabriel bid the family farewell that day and passed away in his sleep a week later. Jane helped me make all the arrangements. She wanted me to move back in with her, but I just couldn't leave our home. The funeral was sad, he was buried next to where I will be buried next to my first husband and our baby who was stillborn. I am glad I had so much love around me and it was a blessing to meet and be hired by Adam Steele. I met Jane and we will be buried in the same graveyard as family should be. I smile because Gabriel loved he had so many new family members when we got married. He enjoyed all of them even if they annoyed others he found joy in just having them around.
