It had been days since James's disappearance. Francis had been informed of it by Gabriel the day that it happened. Francis was sitting at his desk when he got the call. "James? Taken? What the fuck?" His thoughts were loud enough for anyone who saw him to tell that something was wrong with him. He was investigating the mystery man from the mall when he was told about this turn of events.

"What have you gotten yourself into now, pendejo?"

Francis was actually looking into a lead he got on their mystery man of the mass suicide that happened at the mall two months ago, but he was worried now about the rest of the city.

"If that fucker could be taken down... What the hell does that mean for the rest of us? *sigh* Meh, that son of a bitch's immortal haha... He'll spring right back up!"

He spent days looking at his files after that call, trying to find a connection, a name maybe even a location! But nothing... He spent some more hours investigating and still came up with nothing! Francis was a very stubborn man, he didn't usually give up but he was seriously considering it this time.

Outside the police department, an individual let herself in with her face covered by a scarf, and sunglasses under a hood, the typical mysterious helper look. She walked in, scanned the room for Francis and made her way to his location.

"Are you detective Francis Esposito?"

"Fuck! Your voice is creepy as hell!"

"I'm delivering an anonymous tip on the whereabouts of the man you've been investigating."

"Huh?"

"Estaré en contacto, detective."

"I can speak english just fine! And you should really do something about that voice! Makes you sound like a robot! Maybe try, and liven up a bit?"

Francis looked at the file he was handed, and then looked back up to thank the woman for coming forward with the information but she was gone!

"Shit! Now I know how Gordon feels when batman does this crap to 'im."

Francis opened up the file and read what was inside. Following that, he called Gabriel, and explained to him all the information he had, and that he was going to meet him at the location that was given to him by the woman.

Gabriel obviously accepted the information he was given by Francis and let everyone know what was going on. He only had one tiny little problem.

"I'm going and there's nothing you can do to stop me!"

"Alex, listen to what you're saying! We don't know what's over there! James wouldn't want you coming either!"

"I don't care!"

"This is not up for discussion! Dante! Or... Whatever your name is, help me out here!"

Dante raised his hands as if to say, "leave me out of it" and then backed away a little.

"The heart wants what the heart wants, dude."

They all went. Alex, Gabriel, Dante and Jackson. They met up with Francis at an old abandoned building in the north of London where Gabriel got a scolding from Francis for bringing Alex along, after which, Francis got a scolding from Alex for disagreeing with Gabriel's decision of letting her tag along.

Francis brought along with him a small army from the police station to show a little strength from the department on the matter. They were all pretty much armored and ready to storm the building along with Gabriel who was pretty well equipped as well.
