Camilla's POV

The kids were all over today. I mean someone of them weren't even kids. They were the same age as me. Only 5 people were actually couple in here which makes up 10 of 24. Well then there's Justin and I so 12. Half of the gang was paired up. The other half just liked to mess around or didn't want to commit.

2 couple were gay and each had one kid each.

Valentina and Nick are expecting 1.

Bernard has 2 kids. 17 and 15 years old. They're basically grown and are in training to join a crew once they both turn 18. They still go to school. It basically like river dale for them.

Fernanda just gave birth to her son a year and a half ago.

And everyone else was just either trying or wasn't the right time. Our secret location for the kids was so secret no one has found it in 29 years. No raids nothing. The safest warehouse made for everyone and their family. We do have other kids from all around there but we have one more location in Australia. We don't have a gang out there simply because Australians are very strict on no violence. We respect that. They're great people.

Even though the kids were only supposed to stay today. Valentina convinced Justin to let them come back next week right before we got back from our trip.

Deena, Justin, Gianna, Louis, and I were all flying out to Seattle. Justin sort of gave us the gist but we still didn't know the exact reason why were we're headed out the. We were landing soon when Justin's radio goes off. Keep in mind we all have headsets so we can hear.

"Captains team do you copy?" Zack, the leader of Seattle's crew responded.

Copy x4

"Captain copying. Landing now." Justin says as we lower in altitude. He grabs a hold of my hand but stands up when we get the next message.

"Babe sit down you're gonna fling off like in the movies." And as I say that he puts his seatbelt back on and listens along with the crew.

"We got another note. Our bombing won't be pretty as the kids will scream in fear. -Cia " Zack reads and sends us the note. Justin looks upset and I see why we are here now. Someone's targeting our crews but we have no idea what or who is -Cia

"Last note was signed off in Al but we still have no clue who's doing this." Zack responds.

"Do we have a ping on where the first message was sent?" Justin ask with the plane landing.

We all unbuckle our seatbelts and grab our stuff. It wasn't much as we were only meant to stay for 2 days. No more than 4. Day one would be to investigate and day 2 would be physical. We would find a location and get to the bottom of it. Except there's a chance we might not have all the clue which is why we left early morning. We wanted to be able to be here for a week if needed. Which I totally didn't think we would need.

We walk down the small aisle of our private plane and walk out the doors as the planes engine shuts off. There's wind blowing through my hair and clearly a bunch of people talking. I turn off my earpiece as Nick gets closer to us. Some men took our bags and we hopped into a car. To me this was all new. Remember? I just became a veteran yesterday but this was some heavy heist type mission. Let alone I truly feel Justin only brought me for entertainment. I'm not saying I'm bad, but he could of easily chosen someone else to go along this trip. It didn't have to be me.

Zack hands us tablets that show us all notes. The text, the letters, and the warnings. I swipe back and forth trying to see if I could find anything and something seemed wrong about all the notes.

See you soon. Bright in the sun while you freeze in the cold. -Al

A bird in the sky, another angel will fly. -Cia

Watch those who are under 20, divide by 2, and I'll show you the truth. Destroy some of us and we'll destroy what's close to you. -Cia

And the last one we got was a teddy bear signed Al.

"Can I see it?" I asked.

"We checked for cameras but nothing. So don't bother." Zack says but I study the best very closely. I unzip the back and take out all the stuffing.

"I told you no use." Zack says and I still study it and back at the words on the tablet. It seemed like no use but I knew I was right. I tug at the eyes and realized they're screwed. They look at me in shock as a small bottle comes out. I open it inside and find another threat but half was unreadable.

I know you've arrived once someone finds this clue. Can you solve the meaning behind this clue?

5)3 &8:/ 28"" :83 8; 697 -43!5 9! 58'3

48 and counting

"Justin, read this." I say handing it to him. We pass it around to everyone and just brain storm.

"48 and counting. It obviously relates to time. Except do we know if it's 48 hours? Minutes? Days?" I say catching everyone's attention. Zack gives me a look because as a leader he didn't even catch it.

"Can I hold onto this?" I ask Justin.

"As long as you think you can solve it go for it." He says.

"I'm pretty sure my team can solve it." Zack says snatching it from my hands and Justin gives him a look like he's about to beat the shit out of him for snatching it from me. He hands it back to me and says," Sorry boss. It's just she's a rookie and I -."

"Save the bullshit and work as a team. She's not a rookie. Deena is." Justin says and Deena laughs.

"True." She says laughing. Zack opens the door and lets us all out and I grab onto my flannel. We walk through the hotel and the guy just looks at us and nods down as if I'm supposed to know where to go next. I look at Deena and she gives me the same look. Zack laughs and walks to the elevator. We all get it and he placed his finger on the 15th floor and holds onto it.

Zachary Vermont. Suite 1, 2, or 3?

The elevator says and he says back," Presidential."

Presidential suite. Justin Bieber, please scan your finger for Presidential Suite.

Justin scans his finger and the Slavs toe goes up to the very top. Which I thought I already was at until it kept going up. I look at Louis and he goes through the doors as it opens. This place was huge. I was in awe. It was basically the fifty shades of grey penthouse of mr grey.

This is?

Mhmm

Your pent

Yuppp

JUSTIN LET ME FINISH

....

Justin and I went back and forth and he just laughed. Zach went straight back down the elevator and we all kind of went to go change or shower. Justin sat on the couch with the laptop and I went to the bedroom to change. I felt nasty from the plane but wasn't going to take a shower til after dinner. I was set on figuring out what was going to happen.

I had a horrible feeling about this case but only because it felt like it was gonna hit home for me. I felt like something bad was going to happen.
