"How's it going buddy"

"How do you think It's going Anna? I've been sitting on a bloody rooftop in the fucking rain waiting for the slowest person on earth to exit a building so that you can call them and then all I do is stay where I am and look threatening."

"Xorsheed, that's not all you do. You might just need to shoot a warning shot at the wall behind Jamie's head."

"Awesome...Wait! Someone's exiting the building, no that's a pigeon, Oh actually that's a pigeon and Jamie."

"Right, I'm have another phone call to make, if they don't pick up fire a warning shot, if they pick up and hang up fire a warning shot."

"What about if I get bored, then can I fire a warning shot?"

"Yeah, why not. Give you something to do, Talk to ya later bitch" Anna hung up the phone and looked at the boys skateboarding near the Thames. She then quickly dialled a different number and when she waited for them to pick up signalled at the tall man next to her to redial Xorsheed. They probably wouldn't talk again but if something happened it would be good to have eyes at the scene.

"Jamie, How's the case going. Will you get her into court?"

"She has no alibi, its a open and shut case. There should be a date soon, Anna. We never really had a chance to talk before. Why are you doing this, how are you doing this?"

"This is why should need to go on facebook more often I married Ed Bracey."

"Ed Bracey, as in Draco Malfoy? Why? But that still doesn't answer any questions."

"Okay, he owns a large corporation, well owned. He's dead and I took over."

"Oh, I'm sorry for your loss."

"It was ages ago. I'm over it. Anyway I needed Sarah out the way, for my own reasons. Anyway now you answer my questions. What about the results from other Sarah. What where they?" Anna asked. She already knew the answer she just wanted to make sure they knew the answer. That they understood what it meant.

"They were... Inconclusive. They're being repeated and I'll have the news later on."

"Okay, call this number in an hour. You'll have them by then , Right?"

"Yeah, okay bye. Also you can tell your sniper that if they are going to eat up on the rooftop of the house opposite mine can they please not drop sandwich wrappers down on the street. I almost couldn't get out of my house because of the pile of rubbish."

"Okay, Xorsheed did you get that?"

"Xorsheed?"

"OH fuck, that was going to be an awesome reveal, well anyway the bitch is back."

"How do you trust her with a gun."

"She learnt as soon as she got out of school. I persuaded her to, I remembered her talent from exploration society. I offered a well paid job if she did the tests right."

"Well that makes sense. A large business needs a sniper."

"Not that sort of company. Anyway, get me the report or Xorsheed will not hesitate to kill you."

"You know that know I know it's Xorsheed I'm really not that scared of her."

"Oh well we can't have that now can we." Anna laughed and nodded at the man towering beside her.

"Shoot at the wall" He said and seconds afterwards Anna heard a bang and then a scream.

"What the fuck Anna, Seriously."

"That was a warning shot, you should be scared Jamie. Very, very scared."

"Well Anna, I am so I hope your happy. Good bye."

With that the line went dead. Anna turned to her companion. "I'm going to go to my office, but first I need to say goodbye to my boys."

"I really don't know why you keep them."

"They amuse me."

"Thing amuse me I don't spend massive amounts of money on it though."

"I only bought I skate park when the council was going to knock it down."

"ONLY. Right, well hurry up with your good bye."

Anna jumped over the barrier and started to talk to the skaters before coming back. She stifled a laugh when she noticed the badly disguised jealous face looming over her.

"Oh come on. They're like the pets, I love you the most. There is seriously no need to be jealous."

"Was I that obvious."

Anna smiled and tugged on his tie to get him to lean over so she could kiss him before replying.

"Yes Mr. Taylor, you are that obvious." With that they walked away and into the crowd, hand in hand.
