A few members of the field agents were on hand to try to supervise. Despite several attempts, they had not been able to make contact with the riot leaders, but they knew that Kristin was in the crosshairs, that if they found her... A cab pulled up nearby, a young girl around six or seven years old rushing towards the prison.
" Hey Hey Hey!" exclaimed Sheryll, catching her in mid-air.
" Let go of me!" cried the girl.
" Who are you? How did you know about the riot ?"
" It's all over the radio and the news! Even on the internet! I know she's there, coming to see a prisoner, she told my nanny this morning!" the girl panicked.
"Who are you talking about ?" asked Sheryll, who's got her.
"From my mother! She works for the FBI !"
Hana and Sheryll got together, there are only two agents inside...
"Kristin is your mother ?" Hana asked.
"Yes. Do you know her ?"
There had been a silence between the group, how could Kristin have hidden from them the existence of the little one? But on reflection, their colleague had taken a short leave after the investigation of Zamora who had touched him personally.
"We're working with her, big girl, and we're gonna get her out of here, but in the meantime, I need you to stay in our car, okay ?"
"But... but are you going to bring her back alive ?" asked the girl with tears in her eyes.
Sheryll put a lock of hair behind her ear tenderly, putting herself at her height.
"I promise you, baby. How about you give me your name?"
" Alexa Gaines."
"It's very pretty, like you." Sheryll smiled as she took the girl in her vehicle asking an officer to stay with her.
Ray made contact with Agent Scott.
"Guys, we're here, SWAT's here, we're coming for you."
We're in the lookdown part, we're stuck, the priority right now is to keep Kristin safe. Can Hana get access to the security cameras on our side to find out the detainees' movements? We all know that a woman in a prison at a time like this is of great value..."
"I'm doing this, boss." Hana said.
"Can Kristin hear us ?" asked Sheryll.
"Yes, I am here."
"A little Alexa showed up in a panic."
"Oh my God... where is she ? She didn't come in ?"
"No, she was arrested before, I stop her. She says she's your daughter..."
"It is, I'll explain later, can you please look after her ?"
"Absolutely sweetie. She really looks like you."
Exclamations sounded through the phone before the officers outside heard whistles. With the inmates spotting Kristin, the clock was now playing against her... Federal vehicles appeared, revealing Jubal and his team.
"The JOC is on it, we're going to be plugged into the cameras, Ian is already working on the system to remotely unlock to get our agents out of there." announced Jubal.
"We're going to update with SWAT, we're going to join the teams," commented Maggie, followed by Oa, Scola and Tiffany.
"Where is little Gaines ?" asked Isobel, who had travelled with them.
"In our car." Sheryll said.
Isobel reached the child, who immediately threw herself at her neck. The directrice held her against her, trying to reassure her as much as she could.
"I want to stay with you, Izzy."
"You stay next to me, okay ?"
"I promise. Mommy is going to be okay ?"
" You know what, you're mom is one of the most strong agent I never know." Isobel say to the girl kissing her cheek.
Remy separated from Kristin in the hope of creating a diversion and keeping them away from his agent. But it was without counting that there were always one or two inmates to hang out and not follow the crowd.
One of them managed to block Kristin, hitting her hard against the wall, twisting her arm in the back.
"Look at the beautiful specimen we have !"
"This is the FBI agent everyone is looking for ! We can negotiate with anyone in the prison because of her !" replied her comrade.
"I prefer to have fun with her first." sursurra who holds her against the wall a hand caressing Kristin's cheek.
A gunshot sounded before the hold on Constable Gaines disappeared. The inmate collapsed and sounded a blank shot. Oa lowered her gun, while Maggie rushed to Kristin's side.
"We got Kristin ! We're going to the prison director's office." Oa said in his microphone.
Sheryll and Hana gazed at each other, releasing their breath knowing their colleague and friend was safe with the other officers in the office.
"Hey Alexa, Kristin will be here soon, our colleagues have picked her up." Sheryll told the little girl.
"Is she with Maggie ?"
"Yeah, you know her ?"
"Mom worked with her before she moved here, she told me."
"Why did she and Remy come to the prison in the first place ?" Isobel asked Agent Barnes.
"Came to see an inmate with information about the murder of an unsolved federal agent."
"And where is this informant now ?"
"Held by a gang in the prison, they want to trade it with another gang," said Ray.
"Did he give the necessary information ?" Jubal asked.
"Not yet, he wanted a deal before he spoke."
"We have to get him back." Isobel decided.
"It's crazy, we can't..." Jubal began.
"That's an order." whispered Isobel taking the hand of little Alexa before moving away with the child.
"She's the boss, you don't have to question her decisions," said Sheryll before moving away with Ray and Hana.
