"May we speak to emmalyn lake please"

"well look no further im emmalyn"

The men just stared down at emmalyn not knowing what to say.

"well miss emmalyn may we come in we work with your husband"

Emmalyn look at the two men not knowing if she should but she reluctantly agree's

"yes you may come in why dont we sit in the kitchen im trying to finish some dishe's"

The two men followed emmalyn into the kitchen where the little boy was still sitting but not eating his brussel sprouts.

"Alex i told you to eat those...I mean you ate all the other veggies on your plate" emmalyn scolded the little boy

"but mommy im a big boy now and i wanted to look over my deck before daddy comes home, remember he said he would help me" the little boy Alex responded to his mother

Emmalyn sighed "your father got you hooked on that game oh well.. Would either of you two like some tea or coffee" emmalyn asked the two men

The two men looked at each other and nodded "tea sounds good thank you miss"

Emmalyn nodded and went to go make some tea while the two men stared at the little boy. After a few moments the skinnier of the two started to talk the the young boy.

"so um..."

The little boy didnt look up but responded to the man .

"Alex... My names alex" the little boy said in a monotone voice

"oh well hello alex" the man replied "what do ya got in your hands?" he questioned

The little boy looked at his hands staring at the cards.

"oh my daddies gonna help me build my deck more also the games called vanguard"

"Nice what is vanguard fully though ive heard of it but i dont understand what it is all the way"

"oh um you have these beings from a different world or dimension and they like to help you battle one another" the replied with a little confusion in his voice

"Wow how do you know all that like how old are you"

"I just kinda remembered how daddie explained it and im 6"

Emmalyn had walked into the room at that moment with a tray of tea for her and the two men.

"Alex how about you go into the other room and watch pokémon or listen to music please" emmalyn said looking at Alex.

The little boy just looked up at his mother and nodded. After alex had left the room emmalyn sat down and turned to the two men.

"so what are you really doing here erik and maxwell" emmalyn said the two men resting her chin onto her fist.

The two men erik and maxwell looked at eachother with sad expressions plastered on their faces.

"well emmalyn we have been informed last night that your husband  had passed away on his mission"

Emmalyn just stared at the men tears starting to streak their way down her face leaving little stains on her face.

"he was murdered wasnt he maxwell i know you went on the mission with him....." emmalyn cried out.

Maxwell stared down at his hands where the scars of the fights him and emmalyns husband got into.

"yes.....we got ambushed and as you can probaly see we had to get physical and A...." maxwell couldnt even speak with how bad his sobs were.

"please maxwell you dont have..." emmalyn said in a dull voice. Out of the corner of her eye emmalyn could see that her three children were peaking there heads around the corner tears evident in their eyes the pain of their fathers death also shining in their eyes like the moon in the dark sky.

"maxwell what happened to his body" emmalyn asked looking away from her kids.

"after the attack where he got the fatal injury we some how got to the helicoptor but he had passed away before we could even get to hospital..... There was nothing that i could have.... I..im...so.. Sorry i failed him" maxwell started to cry.

Emmalyn looked at maxwell with pain feeling so sorry for the man.

"if there was nothing you could have done...then im not mad infact im sad .. I feel like im dying inside but knowing you my husbands cousin was there when he passed is good enough for me to know that he was happy" emmalyn said with her tears becoming harder and larger.

Erik looked at both of them and proceeded to clear his throat to get their attentions.

"emmalyn could you please let the children in" erik replied in as happy a tone as possible to cheer up the kids that were right on the corner of that wall.

After everyone came in sat down erik began to speak.

"kids....emmalyn your loved one left a note for you guys to read"
Erik handed emmalyn a letter.

Emmalyn began to read the letter.

"Dear emmalyn and my little creatures, if your reading this letter then i have met an end to my life but please dont be sad even though im at the time of this letter being written i will make it cliché but please bare with me. I have passed away on a mission or something along those lines please do not be sad but be happy be happy that i on my last heart beat was a happy man. In the sack that my couleges have are items that i would like everyone to have."

Erik and maxwell brought out a bag and in it items to emmalyn and her children.

After about 30 minutes everyone except alex got an item his older sister got their fathers locket with a picture of her and her father. Alex's older brother got their dads monte carlo and their fathers business. Emmalyn got her husbands business as the head of river's law and co.

Alex stared at everyone thinking of what was left for him.

"ok now finally for alex"erik called out having alex turn his head. "there were only two things he left for you...."

Alex cocked his head thinking ng what his dad left for him a six year old.

Erick cleared his throat."ok alex rivers your father left for you the keys to his suv that he used for work...and the last thing he left for you was this" erick pulled a box out of the bag and handed it to alex.

Alex opened the box and inside was a case with a deck in it.
