Until the jet lands, there was little anyone could do. The team retreat to an Air Force Base near Moscow, geared up and ready to fly at moment of notice.

Despite the urgent matter, JoJo still carries her hospitality, arranging a table full of snacks and drinks for her team.

"You should get some sleep. Your father has the SFB looking for Sam right now." Chloe put a cup of coffee next to her. If anyone can console JoJo right now, it was Chloe. "We will find her, JoJo."

"Stealing the paintings is one thing. Now it's personal!" the girl gripped her fist.

"We'll get your jet too. We know how you love that jet." Camryn said.

"I don't care about the jet! I just don't like losing!"

"The game isn't over yet." Masha sat across the table. "It never will."

She reached for her coffee but it was gone, she turned and saw a mechanical hand slowly dragging her cup away.

"Hey!"

Masha snatched back her cup, caught the robotic thief with her other hand. Suddenly she felt a mild shock, lost her grip and watched the mechanical hand crawling across the table like a spider.

"Wireless." Tilly showed the little stickers around her forearm. "Great for Halloween!"

Everyone laughed at the prank, even JoJo, but their laughter was cut short by a ring from the console, Tilly quickly attached her arm and turned to the screen.

"We have a touch down!"

"Where?" everyone asked.

"You're not gonna like it!" Tilly turned to Chloe.
