Sound of money

The crew grabbed the quickest flight and rushed it to Norway. They banged open the door of Dahlia's house, while Eucalyptus was looking up information about where Sunflower and Frangipani could be. 

- Thank God you're here, - Cayenne said seeing Dahlia inside, - we have to go, right now.

- Wait what? What's happening? - Dahlia was confused.

- Long story, but Frangipani and Sunflower are both fucked, the police are coming here to get us, so we need to go now and we need to go fast.

Dahlia panicked and quickly got ready. As the gang was leaving to nowhere, everyone was panicking.

- Eucalyptus, what's the situation? Where are they? - Rowan asked.

- Either the police are stupid, or this is a setup. both Frangipani and Sunflower are being flown to Arizona and then driven across the whole state.

- What? That seems incredibly weird.

- It is. We can make a plan, but it's gonna be wonky. It could fail miserably.

- We have no other choice, Eucalyptus. - Rowan was losing hope.

After a long flight, the gang landed in Arizona and Rowan started creating a plan with Eucalyptus.

- What are we doing and how much time do we have? - Dahlia asked.

- We're getting two supercars, catching up with the bus delivering them, and freeing them. - Rowan said. We have about five hours to move.

- Seems idiotic. - Cayenne was stressed.

- It is, but do you have any other fucking idea? - Rowan was frustrated.

After a couple of hours, the friends set out. One car was driven by Dahlia with Cayenne in the passenger seat, and the other had Eucalyptus driving and Rowan in the passenger seat. Everyone was extremely stressed. On their way there, Rowan got a message from Kayla:

- Hey, you okay? Haven't heard from you in a bit <3.

Rowan looked at the message for a couple of seconds, opened the window, and threw out his phone.

- You okay? - Eucalyptus asked.

- Yeah, I don't care about her. - Rowan was hurting inside, knowing very well that Kayla meant everything to him.

- That's the bus, - Dahlia said, - get ready boys.

- Let's go. - Eucalyptus confirmed.

Two police cars were guarding the bus. The gang managed to push those cars off-road and now they had the bus to deal with. For an unknown reason, the bus went off-roading and headed to a closed space with rocks all around.

- I have a bad feeling about this. - Rowan said.

As the gang drove into the secreted place the only exit was blocked by a police car. Multiple snipers started showing up above the rocks. Everyone realized it was a setup. They were surrounded by armed forces that were shouting for the gang to get out of the car. Everyone slowly got out of their cars.

- Hands on your head and don't move or we WILL open fire. - An echo settled across the rocks.

The police started handcuffing Eucalyptus and Rowan when Cayenne decided to run for her life. She managed to take a few steps before every sniper opened fire. It only took a couple of seconds for Cayenne to drop on the ground with over thirty bullet holes inside.

Rowan, Eucalyptus, and Dahlia were escorted into the prison bus - empty.

- Wow, a total setup, - Rowan whispered, - respectable.

All remaining members sat next to each other in the back of the bus.

- ..I'm Margaret, by the way. - Dahlia turned to the boys.

- ...Oh...Cool, I'm Martin. - Eucalyptus responded.

- Well if we're sharing already, I'm Franco. - Rowan said.

After that, Cayenne was put in a body bag and the gang was taken to prison.

- Ladies and gentlemen, - Kayla was watching the news, - we are glad to announce that all five of the members of the fox mask crew have been caught or killed. Valentina Escobar, Margaret Elizabeth Miller, Franco Russo, Olivier La Mati, and Martin Freud will all be serving a lifetime of prison time. In an attempt to escape, the fifth member, Bonnie Helsen was killed.

Kayla turned off her TV, a single tear rolled down her cheek.

In London, Sunny also heard the news. His heart split into two as it had never done so before.
