"After I got off the phone with you last night..." Diana struggled to speak.
"Yeah?" Rai waited for her to continue.
"I received a call from some guy..he said that he hired Jeremy and sent him out to follow me. Apparently he wasn't as wasted as I thought he was and he remembered everything I told him."
Rai sat with a shocked look on her face. Her watch beeped and they had a minute to get to the hotel.
"He said we're going to be arrested in the hotel."
Rai picked up the paddle and continued towards the entrance dock.
"Rai!!! Did you hear me?! We're going to get arrested!" Diana shouted as she tried to get Rai to turn around.
But it was too late.
They arrived at the dock, Rai parked the boat and climbed out. Diana followed her, praying to herself and silently saying goodbye to her goldfish Lancelot.
Rai pushed open the large two doors before them.
As they walked in, they could hear the echo of their steps. Rai knew the place would be empty. Just a trick the jerks always tried to pull. The ol' make-them-think-we-changed-our-minds-and-as-they-turn-to-leave-we-come-out-of-nowhere-and-capture-them scheme. Rai knew better as did Diana. "So what if don't turn to leave.. do they still come out of nowhere?" Diana once asked while she was still in training.
"Oh well, guess they changed their minds.." Diana joked as she and Rai sat down on two huge, comfy chairs. Rai sat and knew exactly what Clarissa had told her to say.
"We're so very glad you both could make it." The raspy, loud voice belonged to a middle-aged man with blond hair wearing a pair of blue jeans and a black leather jacket. He came out from the entrance area by the elevators. Behind him were 4 younger men all of which were dressed in blue jeans with grey cashmere sweaters. Rai thought to herself At least I know they are comfortable. Rai rose from her seat and walked towards them. "What do you want from us??"
"Well, hello to you too Ms. Lynn. My name is Malcomn Smith. I am the Chief Director of the IDFLA. I'm sure you've very familiar with this organization."
"Of course we are!" Diana faked her confidence. Rai knew this chick too well to believe her. "The International Dangerous Felons Location Association." Rai stated as she stepped in front of Diana.
"We're not felons Malcomn. We try to help this world become a better place."
"Ms. Lynn, what you do--" Malcomn started to say but was interrupted. Rai was not finished.
