Cries could be heard, the plan went to shit. Their target was expecting them. That's when all hell broke loose.

They planted bombs in the city, not caring who they killed. It was a disaster. Bullets were flying everywhere, soldiers were yelling different commands, the civilians were crying over the dead.

A small girl, no more than 3, with blond hair and blue eyes, was crying over the loss of her dead parents.

Charlie was doing her best to stay calm. She needed to abort the mission, because if they were lucky, they would get out alive. Once Charlie gave the order, her team started to fall back, slowly but surely.

That's when Charlie found a little girl, all lost and alone in the world. Making a sper of the moment dissection, she decided to take the little girl.

"Whats your name little bird?" She asked

"Chloe" she whispered

"Come here sweetheart" the older women said, picking her up.

The girl did not put up a fuse. She somehow knew that she was in good hands. 'Smart girl' she mused, and started walking away, gun in one hand, and child in the other.

Mycroft Holmes was tired, yet excited. He had countless meetings today, however his little sister was coming home.

He wanted to try and see her before the briefing of her last mission in Switzerland, however he was not so sure if he could.

While Mycroft was walking the halls of the MI6 base to go to said meeting, he got his wish. "Hello Charlie. Glad to see you came home safe and sound " he said hugging his baby sister.

"Hey Myc! Glad to see you as well" she said with a warm smile. She was the only one of the Holmes siblings that could deal with emotion.

"I was wondering if you would like to get a coffee before the meeting, catch up" Mycroft said.

Charlie looked at him suspiciously "Why would you..." she stated but was interrupted by her right hand man, Will.

"Charlie! What did you just text me! I can't do this! I'll storm the gates of hell with you, but not this!" He said in a panicked voice, holding up his phone. Unfortunately, Mycroft couldn't see what the text said.

"Yes you will. I need this. Come" she said, pulling him away. "Sorry, can't Myc! Coffee next time" she said.

Mycroft just shook his head. No point in asking about it. She would tell him eventually. He learned the hard way that he can't spy on his sister. He did get shot, along with 20 other men before he decided to quit.

As Charlie walked into the briefing, for her latest mission, she could tell her brother knew something was off. 'Oh well' she thought 'he'll find out eventually'

About an hour into the briefing, Charlie was getting annoyed. "No you're not listening! Our target knew about the mission, which points to a mole in our ranks! The mole is obviously high up.." she started to say, but was interrupted by the door banging open.

A small 3 year old blonde girl barged in, tears streaming down her face. "Mommy!" she cried, while running over to Charlie, slamming into her.

"Oh, it's ok sweetheart. It's ok, what's wrong?" she said in a soft voice, picking up the child. Everyone in the room was in stunned silence. Charlie was known to be ruthless, strong headed, and sometimes even a psychopath. Of course, she was caring, however they have never seen that side of her, since they were always with her when she needed to be the cold hearted soldier.

As the little girl started to say something, Will barged in, with a doctor on his heels. "Omg" he gasped. "Kids got a set of legs on her"

He then noticed all the other important government officials, and generals. "Oh, uh sirs" he saluted.
