They now had a two day boat journey ahead of them as they travelled to South America where the tail of El Dorado originated. Saylor, Carlton, Ryan, Stephen and Ethan were on a rather large boat that they had collected from the port Ryan had instructed them to meet at.

Ryan had informed Saylor that Singh was holding her father captive so that he could translate their findings. Although he was being held against his will he had reassured her that no harm would come to him despite Carlos's hatred toward him as he was the only person alive that could give him the information they so desperately needed.

The sun was setting and the orange hues that painted the sky were also glistening in the reflection of the ocean that surrounded them. They had just finished their meal and were collected at the front of the boat sat in a circle around a small fire pit.

It was so peaceful and everyone felt completely content with their situation and who they were with. "So, what's your story?" Ethan broke through the comfortable silence directing his question at the newest edition to their makeshift family.

Saylor had always found it difficult to open up, she figured it was because of the deep rooted feeling of being a burden that her mother had installed in her. JJ using her trauma as an excuse for his loss of feelings towards her only further confirmed within herself that Carol was correct all along.

That being said she was no longer with those people, she was now surrounded by people that had proven to her not only that they cared but also that they held no judgment towards her and her background.

As she looked at the men around the fire she realised that not everyone in the world was out to her, they had all trusted her enough to tell her their own stories and that meant a lot to her.

Carlton's mother was much like her own, addicted to drugs and abusive. He had ran away from home and that is where he was bought in of the streets by Ryan who had seen him stealing food from a local grocery store. Ryan then took him to Singh who had offered him a job and he had been there ever since, only leaving once to visit his mother in hospital the day she had died.

Ethan had trained in the military and was waiting to be stationed but was let go due to his sudden diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes. He then advertised himself to private security services and was hired as a night club bouncer where he worked for 3 years until Singh came across his resume whilst searching to expand his team. He has worked for Singh since that day back in 2011.

Stephens story was different to the others, he was simply hired by Singh due to Ethan's recommendation. Stephen had just finished high school and had absolutely no clue what he wanted to do with his life, that was until his older cousin Ethan spoke to his boss convincing him to give him a chance. Stephen joined Carlos the same year as Carlton, the two of them both being 19.
