Alyssa jumped out of the car as she was suppose to meet with Self; who was suppose to be meeting with Michael. She walked over to where he was standing by the edge holding on to something in his hand.

"Hey, how long have you been standing here?" she asked coming to a stop beside him.

She looked down and spotted the wedding ring that he tried to hide from her. She raised an eyebrow at him but didn't press the issue.

"Not too long. Michael wanted to meet. He sounded kind of urgent over the phone."

Before Alyssa could respond she heard a car door slamming and two sets of footsteps.

"Hey!" Alyssa turned around to see Michael and Jessica heading towards them.

Alyssa went to smile at her friend but stopped when Jessica threw her a glare.

"What the hell did you two get us into?" Jessica asked accusingly.

Alyssa looked at her in confusion and shook her head.

"What the hell are you talking about?" she asked completely confused.

Michael looked at Self.

"Did you think that you could just get us on the hook so we all found out for ourselves how screwed up this whole thing is?!" Michael shouted at Self.

Alyssa snatched up Jessica's arm.

"What the hell is he talking about Jessica?" Alyssa asked being fed up with the attitude she was receiving.

Jessica yanked her arm back.

"He's talking about the card. Its completely useless now." Jessica informed her friend.

Self jumped in the conversation.

"So wait you already got it?" he asked sounding excited.

"Yes we did! But without the other five cards it means nothing!" Michael shouted at Self.

Alyssa and Jessica both just stared at Michael in shock.

"We can only assume you know that!" Alyssa stared wide eyed in shock and confusion.

"Wait a minute there is five other cards?" she asked just when Self responded to Michael.

"What other five cards?" Jessica looked toward Alyssa and sighed.

"Well I guess its safe to assume that you had no idea about the other cards." Jessica commented and gave a sheepish shrug to her best friend.

"What other five?" Self asked impatiently.

"Roland copied the card and there is no company data on the card and without the other five cards its unreadable!" Self looked very deep in thought at this process of information.

"Its like one sixth of a puzzle but thats not our problem because we had a deal! And we gave you exactly what you asked for!" Self got in his face.

"No you didn't! No you didn't! The deal was you guys got me Scylla and you haven't done that! You want my word again? You'll go back to prison if you don't get me those other five cards!"

Alyssa looked at him and raised her hand at him.

"Don! You need to calm down right now! No one is going back to prison just yet." Alyssa stated coming to stand between Michael and Don.

"If you cant get this done just let me know and we'll have your cell ready." he then pointed to Jessica.

"And you can kiss your baby daddy goodbye because he'll be in the cell right next to his brother." Self threatened and Jessica glared.
