*Taylor's Pov*

"So, you're a cop?"

"And you're a lawyer."

"Yep. What happened here?"

"The girls attacked me last night asking about The Agency and then they were hopping over rooftops."

"Yeah I saw the video. I'm suprised you made that jump."

"I used to do that kind of stuff when I was fourteen."

"Well I guess it paid off."

"Yeah. Can I talk to them?"

"Yeah. Have at it."

I crouched down in front of the girls and held their hands.

"It's going to be okay. You're safe now."

"No. He'll come for us."

"He won't. I promise."

"I keep seeing their faces."

"It's okay. I know people who can help."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. It's going to be okay."

"Taylor, we need to go." Said Jay as he approached.

One of the girls got up and pulled a knife on Jay. He was quick to grab it and slam her into the van.

"Woah! What are you doing!?" Shouted Lillian.

"She just attacked me. What was I supposed to do? Stand there and take it?"

"No but you don't do that. Taylor? Are you not going to say anything?" Asked Lillian towards me.

"Jay did the right thing."

"I can't believe you right now."

"Lillian, I suggest you travel with your clients to the district. See you around." I said to her before I pulled Jay away.

"Are you okay?" I asked him when we got into his truck.

"Yeah, all good."

"Here is what we know already." Said Hank as he started to place pictures on the board.

He handed Jay and I a case file as he talked. I flicked through the file while everyone else listened to him.

There was a moment of silence as I kept reading the notes. I looked up to see Hank staring at me.

"What?"

"I'm trying to explain. Could you listen?"

"I'm good at multi-tasking."

"I don't care." He said as he snatched the file from me and put it on Antonio's desk. "I need all eyes and ears on me. Two cops are dead, let's not have anymore."

"Five females in the past three days have returned to Chicago. They are all from the same group home except they weren't taken until fifteen years after the first incident. They are much younger."

"How young?" I asked as I sat on the edge of Jay's desk.

"The youngest is twelve and the oldest is sixteen."

I let out a sigh as I fiddled with my hands. I was trying my hardest to hold back tears but I was struggling. Kevin threw a box of tissues towards me and I wiped my eyes.

"It's tough, I know. They are trained assassins. They've killed hundreds and hundreds of people. They're probably scared too." Explained Hank.

"I was looking through the file, they each wear a red bracelet with their black clothes. It's hard to see." Said Adam as he placed a picture on the board.
