"That's it?" Jimmy asked the agents in disbelief. "You're just gonna leave her to die?"

After the helicopter landed at their hotel, everyone was back in the room, finally safe. Their mission had been complete, Knox died along side Dakota. Both on the roof. But Jimmy wasn't satisfied with the outcome.

"It's our job." Noah simply replied. "We can't save everyone..."

"You could've saved her!" He yelled.

Noah stood up, "Don't tell me what I could or couldn't have done!"

"Enough!" Alex roared and shut everyone up. "We all knew the risks. Yeah it sucks she isn't here with us... But remember Jimmy, we had a job to do. Now our work is done."

"Done?" Nick spoke. "So what now?"

"We have other missions we're assigned." Thomas stated as he and the others packed their bags.

"You're leaving?" George raised an eyebrow.

"Once we complete a mission, that's it. We can't stay." Cassie said. "Our job is to finish whatever we have to do, once that is done, we have to get out of here as soon as possible."

"What about us?" Deebo pointed to him and his teammates. "We were safer with you guys."

"Your coaches assigned each of you a bodyguard and extra security at all times." Noah muttered. "You'll be fine."

"No.." Jimmy shook his head. "No this doesn't feel right."

"Jimmy it never feels right." Alex sighed and looked at him with soft eyes. "This is the only part that sucks about our job. We can't control our feelings, we all want to protect the person we love. But being with them puts their lives more at risk."

"How are you so sure?" He asked. "What would you know?"

Alex took a deep breath before looking at all of them. "I fell in love with the person I was assigned to. We were married for four years, then one day, his car blew up. Cassie was forced to watch her highschool sweetheart get murdered. Noah couldn't save his wife in time, and Thomas. Thomas' wife was taken from him and nowhere to be found, until they sent him her body."

"I'm sorry..." Nick said.

"That's must've been hard." Richard practically whispered.

"I didn't know.." Jimmy looked down. "Who was Jax?"

Noah and Thomas smiled. That name.

"Jax was the best agent in this business. He was only a year older than Dakota. He was determined and a free spirit." Noah explained.

"Jax was everyone's friend. He saw Dakota and fell in love. They eventually were assigned on a mission together at 16 and 17. That's when he asked her out for the first time. And one night, they were doing a stakeout, and he proposed. But.. It was a setup. We thought it was O'Connor, turns out it was Knox." Thomas finished.

Everyone stayed silent. The sudden news shocked everyone. Hell, the sudden turn of events had everyone looking over their shoulder ever second, at the slightest noises.

"We have to go." Cassie suddenly said, breaking the silent room.

"So that's it?" George scoffed. "You just leave?"

"We can't be with you forever." Noah growled. "Good luck." He quickly gave Richard and Deebo a nod and exited the room.

"Nice working with you guys. Good luck next season." Thomas sent them all a small smile.

Cassie approached Nick, "It was really nice to be in your world. Stay safe Bosa."

"Sorry we couldn't do more." Alex frowned. "I'm sorry Jimmy... Stay safe and don't make deals with strange men in casinos."
