A/N:
Sorry, I haven't been updating—school stuff. I have to do a summer project, it's ridiculous. My mom is making me redo it. I guess that's a downside of having your mother as a teacher. So I know I left y'all on a Cliff-Hanger, so I'm fixing that before I stop posting for a little bit. Just until the 15th or 16th. Maybe even earlier. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

Scarlett POV
Before I knew it I was reaching into Sandiego's coat for her Grappling Hook, and shooting it at my oldest friend. Memories began flooding back from my sixth birthday, Mom being held against her will, and Dr. Belum erasing my memories and giving me my code name.

Jason helps me up, I sway and fall back into my father's arms. 

"I'll take her back home,"

"I'm coming too," Jason followed us into the boat. 

Mom stayed behind. I tried to warn her of something, but before I could, nausea consumed me and I fell into someone's arms. The last thing I heard was dad calling out mom's name.

Carmen's POV
I'm pushed down with a loud oof before I can see what Gray was warning me about. "Lamkins finally came home." 

"I notice you've returned Coach Brunt," I state firmly while getting up. 

"You can't just take one of my star operatives," She replied, talking about Scarlett.

I grit my teeth as I face her. "That "Operative" is my daughter! You took her from me!" I've held in so much anger against Coach Brunt for taking away my daughter, now I'm able to let it all out. 

"She took after you and Crackle, thankfully," Coach Brunt says gratefully.  

While Coach Brunt cackles, I take the opportunity to pull a Roundhouse kick. She blocks and yanks me into a metal pole, leaving me on the ground as I black out.

Gray POV
My heart starts to race when Carmen doesn't get up. Coach Brunt walks to her in a stealthy motion. Franticly, I pass Scarlett, who is slowly regaining consciousness, to Jason and jump out of the boat and into the water. It's cold, but I push through. I break through the surface and swim the rest of the way. Coach Brunt hasn't noticed me yet when haul myself on the cold pavement. 

A steel hammer is close by. Careful not to make Coach Brunt aware of my presence I grasp the handle and hover it over my shoulder. I kreep up to my former teacher, who nears closer to my beloved wife. I swing the hammer into the side of Coach Brunts head. She staggers back wards and raises her hand to where the hammer struck her. I rush to Carmen's unconscious body and throw her over my shoulders. Coach Brunt sees us and blocks us. 

"Come back for your wifey?" Coach Brunt questions with an evil smirk. Her face suddenly turns sour and and faints, face first onto the floor. I look up to see Shadowsan.

"Shadowsan! Thank goodness," I say gratefully. 

"Let's get Carmen back to Argentina."

I nod and signal Jason to bring the boat back.
