“Oscar and Rudy drove back to the OSI. “Did Col Austin call by any chance? Oscar asked Fayina.

“Not since he left here Mr. Goldman.” Fayina smiled.

“I was kind of hoping he had changed his mind.” Oscar smiled. “Well come on Rudy I better put out an APB. He does have classified material on him. He’s gone to the Soviets he needs to be arrested for treason.” They stepped into Oscar’s office and continued talking, hoping there words were being heard by the woman in Oscar’s reception area.

“Are you going to call Hanson?” Rudy asked.

“I suppose I’m going to have to.” Oscar sighted. “I was hoping he had come back with the file on the Energy source project.

“Can’t you give him another day?” Rudy tried to defend.

After much thought Oscar finally agreed “I’m headed home can I give you a lift?”

“No I’m not ready to leave just yet I have some work to do. I’ll see you in the morning.”

Rudy stepped out into Oscar’s reception area. “Good night Amanda.”

“Yes, Dr. Wells have a nice evening…’

Oscar soon stepped out as well. “You can go Amanda I’m finished for the night.”

“You’re sure there’s noting more I can do for you?” Fayina smiled.

‘Yea you can get the hell out of my office.’ Oscar thought “no nothing else.” He faked a smile then left the room.

As soon as he left Fayina called the Embassy again. “Mr. Goldman has gone for the evening” she reported.

“That’s fine. Fayina hang around for another hour or so, see if he comes back.” Ivan told her.

“How much longer do I have to keep this up?” Fayina snorted.

“I don’t know, we may keep this up even after Callahan returns. We could arrange for her to have an accident, and who would replace her?”

“I suppose that would be me, but what if they catch on?” Fayina wondered

“They won’t figure it out, they are way too stupid.” Ivan laughed.

An hour or so later as Rudy left his office he saw ‘Amanda’ leaving Oscar’s office. He quickly glanced at his watch then made a mental note to himself to tell Oscar what time she had left.

<<<<<<<>>>>>€€

Later that night Boris pulled up to the curb across the street from the OSI. “Ok Steve you have exactly five minutes.”

“I won’t need that long.” Steve slipped out of the car. Of course they had no idea Steve was bionic. As soon as he was out of sight of Boris’ car he went at top speed. He slipped past the guards who he was sure would be looking for him.

It was quiet as he crept down the hall. He didn’t go into Oscar’s office rather he went into Rudy’s He wanted to leave a note and didn’t want the Soviet secretary to discover it before Oscar.

Steve walked over to Rudy’s desk and scrawled a quick note

‘Tell Oscar I need to meet with him tomorrow afternoon 2:00 at the Mall. If I’m not there by three tell him to leave.’ He left it where he knew Rudy would be sure to find it then ran back out to the car where Boris was waiting.

“Just a little under four minutes I like that. Where’s the file?”

“Let’s get out of here and fast!” Steve bluffed.

“Why what’s wrong?”

“I had a reception committee.” Steve lied.

“A what?” Boris was not familiar with the term.

“Someone was waiting for me. I’m not surprised. I’m surprised I got in at all.” Steve sighed.

Boris screeched his tires and they took off.

“You said you were going after a file. Where is?” Ivan demanded when Steve showed up empty handed.

Like I told him they were expecting me.” Steve slumped down in a chair hoping Rudy would see the note and pass it to Oscar with out Callahan’s replacement seeing him do it. He also had to think of a way to get out of the embassy for a short period of time so he could make his meeting with Oscar.

“They’re on to you; does this mean they don’t trust you?”

“Steve nodded. “That’s about it.”

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

The next day Rudy saw the note the minute he arrived and called Oscar down to his office to give it to him.

“What do you suppose this is all about?” Oscar wondered.

“I don’t know but if I were you I wouldn’t miss the meeting.” Rudy cautioned.

“I plan not to.” Oscar folded the note and stuck it in his breast pocket then headed back for his own office.

At about 1:50 Steve glanced at the clock. ‘I better come up with something.’ He turned to Boris who had become his personal escort “I need to use the restroom” He stated .

Boris led him down the hall “Ok I’ll be right here. Knock when you’re ready.”

“Yea right” Steve slipped inside the bathroom then out the window He was only a block away from the mall so he knew he would make it with no problem. He jumped out the window and then headed for the mall.

Oscar was waiting on a park bench when he arrived

“I only have a minute.” He whispered. “I got my first assignment from Ivan.”

“What is that?” Oscar asked.

“I’m supposed to kill you. So in the next few days I’ll contact you for another meeting where I’m supposed to kill you. I’ll try to meet with you before then so we can come up with something. Steve thought for a moment “Watch the classified ads.” Steve quickly wrote down what add he would place and handed it to Oscar. “Look for this ad in the next two days. I’m trying to stall them on killing you.” He also handed him another slip of paper. “Just more information look I have to get back.”

Oscar watched as Steve headed back toward the Soviet Embassy. “I don’t know if this is all worth it pal.” Oscar muttered.

Back at the embassy Steve climbed back in the window only to come face to face with Ivan and Boris.

“My, my Mr. Austin, where have you been?”…

After his meeting with Steve Oscar got in his car and told his driver to take him back to the OSI. When he arrived, rather than go to his own office he went to Rudy’s

“Did Steve show up?” Rudy asked.

Oscar nodded. “It’s the loyalty test. They want Steve to kill me.”

“What are you going to do?” Rudy asked.

“I don’t know. Steve is hoping to meet with me again to discuss a plan. He said he would post an ad in the classifieds “

“So you’ll have to look for it?” Rudy was still in the dark as to what exactly what was going on.

“Can you come up with something to make it look like he killed me?” Oscar wondered.

“What exactly is Steve doing?” Rudy wondered.

“He wrote everything down here. He wants to find out why they want this energy source what is their plan once they get it. Rudy what could they do with it?”

“They could control the world’s energy.” Rudy admitted.

“That’s what I thought. I hope to hear from Steve soon.” Oscar sighed.

“I’m sure you will.” Rudy gave some thought to his assignment at hand. “I think I’ve got it.” He almost yelled. “He’ll throw you off of a building.”

Oscar grimaced “That might hurt.”

“Not really. You two meet on the top of a building. Then you get into a fight. You both fall to the roof and Steve comes back up with a life sized dummy of you…”

“I get it he throws the dummy off the roof.” Oscar finished.

“Exactly” I’ll get busy and construct one.”

“Rudy what if they examine my ‘body’ Oscar asked

Oh. I never thought of that. Back to square….no I think I have an idea. After he throws you he jumps down with you off the roof and replaces the dummy with you…”

“But Rudy I won’t be dead.” Oscar reminded.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

“I’m sorry.” Steve responded. “What did you say?”

“Don’t play us for fools Austin. Where were you?”

“Look you guys have been on my back ever since I got here. I came here on my own power I needed a break ok. I wanted to clear my head.”

“Let us know the next time and we will take you to a more secluded area to ‘clear your head.” Boris snapped.

“Look I’m sorry if I stepped on anyone’s toes.” Steve apologized.

“Step on toes?” Boris wrinkled his brow.

“Never mind I’ll ask next time I feel I need a break.”

“That would be a good idea; I don’t want you to leave the building unescorted again.” Ivan snorted.

“Yea fine” Steve wondered how he would meet with Oscar. He hoped Rudy had come up with something to make it look like he killed Oscar.”

That night Steve thought and though of a way to contact Oscar. He knew sneaking out was out of the question. ‘I’ve got it.’

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

The next day Oscar picked up the afternoon paper he went straight for the classifieds the ad was there

To RG

Meet me in the men’s room Union station, 3:00 tomorrow.

OA

This was the exact ad Steve had written down for Oscar. Oscar tore the ad out of the paper folded it and put in his pocket. Then he strolled down to Rudy’s office.

“Are you sure it’s from Steve.” Rudy questioned looking at the ad.

“It’s the same ad he gave me yesterday or close to it anyway. He was afraid the Soviets might catch on so he used your first initial and my last then my first and his last. He figured they wouldn’t catch on to that. Tomorrow at 3:00.” Oscar paused for a moment. “I wonder how he’ll get there.”

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

The next day Steve stepped into Ivan’s office. “I need to call my wife.”

“Your wife is an OSI agent. I don’t think that would be a good idea.” Ivan denied.

“I have to check on my son. I’ve been worried about him. If I’m not around he tends to run away. I need to make sure he’s all right. You can listen on the extension if you want.”

“Very well call your wife, but I listen to the entire conversation.”

“Deal.” Steve picked up the phone and dialed his house he only hoped Rob didn’t answer.

“Hello”. Jaime spoke.

‘Jaime it’s me. Listen say exactly what I tell you.’ Steve spoke quickly so only Jaime could here. ‘I need you to tell me Rob ran away. Tell me he’s headed for Union Station.’

Jaime had heard from Oscar and knew what was going on. So she played along.

“Your wife answered.” Ivan was getting irritated.

“I guess you’re making me nervous.” Steve snapped.

“Steve? is that you?” Jaime called into the phone.

“Yes I was wondering about…”

“Oh I’m so glad you called, Robbie ran away again. He’s headed for Union Station. He said he’s going to Seattle to live with his other grandparents.” Jaime really played it up.

“I’ll try to head him off. You stay there.” Steve hung up the phone and turned toward Ivan. “You heard?”

Ivan nodded.

“I have to go get him. You can come with me if you want, but stay out of sight Rob doesn’t like strangers.”

Ivan told Boris to take Steve to Union Station. “You can help.” Steve handed Boris a picture of Rob. “I’ll check the bathrooms, you check the waiting room.”

“We’ll find him don’t worry.” Boris assured.

Steve watched as Boris headed for the waiting room then ducked into the men’s room.

Oscar stood at the sink washing his hands Steve made a quick sweep then jammed the door so no one else could enter. “Did you come up with something?”

Oscar handed him a paper with he and Rudy’s plan. “I think it will work. I have to find out what they want the Energy Source for.”

Oscar nodded. “You better get going.”

As Steve opened the door Oscar ducked into one of the stalls just in case Steve had company on the other side. He did.

“I don’t see him. Was he in here?” Boris was looking around.

Steve shook his head. I’ll call Jaime again and tell her to call my other in-laws so they can be looking for him.”

“We’ll call as soon as we get back.” Boris promised.

Steve called home and Jaime told him Rob had ‘come home’ on his own.

“Well that’s a relief. I have to go now.”

Steve hung up and turned to Ivan and Boris. "Now that my son is safe I can do that job you wanted me to do. Afterwards you need to tell me what you want the Energy Source for. Then maybe we can do business.”

“Very well just as soon as the job in complete.” Ivan assured.

“I’ll call Oscar.” Steve picked up the phone and dialed Oscar’s private number.

Rudy and Oscar who had been discussing the situation looked at one another in shock. Oscar reached for the phone and picked it up. “Steve?”

“Yea Oscar” Steve smiled at Boris and Ivan. “I was wondering if we could get together.”

“I don’t know Steve.” Oscar tried to sound suspicious feeling the Soviets were listening.

“I want to come back. I’m sorry I left, can we at least talk about it.”

Oscar agreed he knew that in order for everything to play out, he had to meet with Steve.

“Ok the roof of the Plymouth building at midnight.” Steve told him.

“Ok Steve. The Plymouth building at midnight” Oscar confirmed.

“Come alone,” Steve added then hung up.

At 11:45 Oscar prepared to leave his office. “Well Rudy I’m off.”

“The dummy is already in place.” Rudy assured.

“I just hope they believe I’m dead.” Oscar sighed. “I hope Steve can convince them that the dummy was really me when he throws me off.”

“Same here, good luck Oscar.”

Oscar left and found Steve already waiting for him. “Are they watching?” Oscar asked as he approached Steve

Steve gave a slight nod and then pointed to the roof top across the street.

“Ok let’s make this look convincing.” Oscar began waving his arms at Steve indicating the conversation was not what Steve had in mind.

Steve pushed Oscar to the ground and came up with the dummy. He threw it off of the building then walked away leaving Oscar on the roof to wait for his chance to leave.

Steve jumped over to the other roof top surprising Ivan and Boris who were getting ready to go down.

“You saw?” Steve asked

Both men nodded. “I think you have proven yourself.” They headed back for the Embassy without examining the body...

The next day Oscar tried to stay low key, he was in fact supposed to be dead, so he spent the day a Rudy’s house. Jaime sat with him.

“I just hope Steve knows what he’s doing.” Oscar sighed as he and Jaime sipped coffee.

“Don’t worry Oscar. As soon as he finds out what the Energy Source is for he’ll be back.” Jaime assured.

“I suppose.” Oscar managed a smile

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

“Is it ok for me to go out on my own now?” Steve asked after they had had a meeting discussing the usage of the Energy Source. “I need to see my family. I’ll be back in the morning.” Steve assured. “I just need to tell them what’s going on. And check up on my son.” Steve hoped they let him go without argument.

“That will be fine. You proved yourself go ahead.” Ivan allowed.

Steve was on his way home to tell Jaime and Oscar it was over when Ivan picked up the phone in his office.

“I just thought you would want to know,” came the voice. “Goldman isn’t dead. It was a trick.” The caller hung up without saying who they were.

Ivan slammed the phone down. “He betrayed us. I want Austin, I want him dead!” Boris shouted…

Who could've called Boris? Oscar's 'new gal'? Did she spot him somehow? Whoever the caller was... Steve is in really deep trouble now!

Oh no all their clever ideas and efforts are ruined. Who could know that it was a dummy? Was there another spy at OSI?

“What are you saying?” Boris asked.

“Austin, he betrayed us. Goldman isn’t dead.

“I saw him throw Goldman…We both saw him throw Goldman off that roof top.” Boris

“It must have been a dummy. And now Austin is gone, I’m sure he’s gone back to the OSI…”

But we have the file on the energy source project.” Boris reminded.

“I’m sure it’s bogus. I want Austin dead. I don’t care who gets in the way, I want the man dead!!” Ivan ordered

Boris stood “I’ll get right on it.” He assured.

“See that you do!!” Ivan called as Boris walked through the door.

Boris hit the streets of DC with one thing in mind finding Steve Austin and making an example of him.

He thought his best bet was to sit outside the OSI and follow Steve when he left.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>

Rudy, Jaime and Oscar were at Rudy’s house when he arrived. He thought they would all be there because if Oscar were supposed to be dead, he couldn’t show up at the OSI. And he knew his house was bugged, so Rudy’s was the best possibility.

“Steve!” They all called out surprised to see him so soon. “How did you get away?” Oscar asked.

“I gained there trust.” Steve said as he sat next to Jaime on the couch. “Where’s Rob?” He asked.

“He’s in school. Russ will be there to pick him up and bring him here as soon as schools out.” Oscar assured. “Did you find out what they wanted the energy source for?”

Steve nodded “Yea it’s just what I thought. They want to control the world’s energy. What with the energy crisis and all…”

“I was afraid you were going to say that. The plans you gave them were completely bogus right.” Jaime asked

“Oh yea it may take them a couple of days to discover it’s a fake.” Steve assured, “but they won’t be able to do a thing with it.”

“Well that’s good.” Oscar breathed a sigh of relief. Little did he know the sigh would be very short lived

Steve turned to Oscar. “I think you better get out of the City for a while. I don’t want anyone to see you. The story of your untimely death will hit the papers in the morning.”

“Any idea who killed me?” Oscar smiled.

“Not a clue. No one knows you were to meet with me except Rudy and he’s to scared to say anything.”

Rudy nodded. “I’ll make sure Oscar gets out of town. In the mean time you, Jaime and Rob make yourselves seen. I don’t know it the Russians will still want you or not, I’d try again in the morning.”

“I told them I just wanted to see my family I’d be back in the morning.”

“Good.” Oscar agreed. “You find out what your next mission is. Try to let us know.”

“I’ll do my best. Is ‘Amanda’ still in your office?”

“Oh yea she’s still there. Of course I haven’t seen her since I was killed by you. I suppose they will have to let her go.”

“Hey dad!” Robbie bounded through the door.

“Hi son how was your day?” Steve asked

“It was ok. How is every thing here?”

“I’ll tell you in the car.” Steve turned his attention back to Oscar. “I think Rudy better get you out of town… how about Rudy’s uncle’s house in Arlington?” Steve suggested.

“I was thinking the same thing.” Rudy concurred. “Come on Oscar it’s about an hours drive.”

The two men left and Steve suggested that they go out for dinner, make it look as normal as possible.

“Let me get this right.” Jaime stated when they were in the car. The Soviets still think you work for them?”

Steve nodded. “It’s just till we get this Energy Source cleared up. Actually if they had the actual plans, it still might not work….”

“What do you mean?” Jaime asked.

Rudy and I still don’t have all the bugs out of it. It may be years away. To be real honest, I don’t know if it will ever work. It’s just an idea I had.”

“I see. “ Jaime stared out the window.

“By the way do our walls still have ears?” Steve asked as they pulled into the drive.

Jaime nodded.

“Good then prepare for a fight. Just follow my lead.” Steve said. “When we get inside say something like I have a lot of nerve showing up, or something like that.” He turned to Rob. “Just play along son.

“Ok Dad. Rob gave a smile. “I think I kind of like this.” They got out of the car Robbie and Jaime went inside.

“Where’s dad?” Rob asked.

“I don’t know.” Jaime could see Steve in the garage waiting the right moment to enter.

“So I see you decided to come dragging home!” Jaime screamed when Steve finally walked into the house. “You have some nerve…”

“What are you saying?” Steve tried to sound shocked.

“You killed Oscar!” She screamed. “Rudy’s positive it was you…”

“What makes him…”

“Oh Steve, Rudy knows Oscar was to meet you on some roof top, and then Oscar is found dead after being thrown off of a roof top. It doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure it out!” Jaime was still shouting.

“Ok maybe you’re right. But you can join me Jaime, the pay is better…”

“If you think for one minute that I’m going to…”

“Hey I was just asking.” Steve smiled. He was glad they were only bugged and not video. He as well as Jaime was finding it hard to keep a straight face.

“And I’m just telling you the answer is NO!” Jaime screamed. “I think Robbie should stay here?”

“No way!” Steve screamed more out of shock then anything. He had no idea Jaime would involve Robbie.

“Well fine!” Jaime concluded “If you want me to tell the court you’re suspected of killing Oscar…” Jaime gave him a wink.

“Dad I think I want to stay with Jaime.” Rob decided he’d better jump in.

“Are you sure that’s what you want?” Steve asked

Rob nodded “yeah I think so.”

Let’s go to dinner and talk about it?” Steve suggested.

The three headed out the door.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

“Great show Mr. and Mrs. Austin.” Ivan applauded. “But I don’t buy it not for one minute.”

“Do you still want me to do the job?” Boris asked.

“Are the explosives ready?” Ivan wondered.

“All set.” Boris smiled.

“They are out of the house. You should probably get to work.” Ivan ordered.

“I’ll get right on it.” Boris walked out of Ivan’s office and drove to Steve’s house. It took well over an hour but he set the explosives.

After he set them he called Ivan.

“Yes?” Ivan answered.

“Job is complete.” Boris reported.

Very good, what time are they set to go off?” Ivan laughed.

“I’ve set them to go off at around 2:00 in the morning. I figured everyone would be beddy bye at that time.”

“Yes, yes. No time for them to get out.” Ivan continued to laugh.

“Do you want me to stay around here?” Boris asked.

“I don’t think that will be necessary.” Ivan stated.

“Ok then I’ll come back.” Boris got in his car and headed down the street.

As Boris pulled around the corner Steve, Jaime and Robbie pulled into the drive.

“So you ok with this Rob.” Steve asked before they walked into the house.

“Sure dad. I think this will be fun.” Robbie smiled.

“Ok son, but you have to make it sound real.” Steve reminded.

“I will dad.” The trio stepped into the house. “Well if you’re sure that’s what you want son.” Steve asked.

“I’m sure dad I want to live with Jaime.”

“Well I’ve tried to talk you out of this all through dinner. I guess you’ve made your choice.” Steve smiled at him.

“Yea dad I have. I hope its ok with you.” It was all Rob could do to keep from laughing.

“Well I guess it will have to be considering your mother is blackmailing me.” Steve spat. “I will come back for him though.” Steve told them.

“Just remember what I said would happen if you did. Rudy will tell the NSB Oscar was to meet with you the night he was killed.”

“You won’t quit will you?” Steve demanded.

“No. Not when it concerns the welfare of a child.” Jaime shot back.

“Maybe I won’t even stay here tonight!” Steve shouted.

At the sound of this Ivan cried out. “No, no!” that will ruin everything!”

“You can stay but you sleep on the couch. I mean Rob wants to have you here. Steve I wish you would change your mind.” Jaime pleaded.

“We went all over this at dinner.” Steve reminded.

“So it’s pointless huh?” Jaime sighed.

“Yea I guess it is.” Steve sighed.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

In Arlington Russ ran up the steps of Rudy’s uncle’s house. He pounded on the door a wary Oscar answered the door. “Russ what is it?”

“Oscar.” Russ panted. “They’re on to us; they’ve been on to us since Steve left the Embassy.”

“What?” Oscar cried.

“They know you’re alive, and they want Steve dead.” Russ told him.

“I’ll get Rudy. Get in the car. We’ll go straight over there!” Oscar cried racing up the stairs to get Rudy.

They drove from Arlington to DC in record time. As they rounded the corner to Steve’s house the explosion rocked the block…

Yesterday, I was wondering how the Russians knew that it was a trick and Oscar was alive...and now I'm wondering how Russ knew that they were still on to them?

“Russ! Call the fire department!” Oscar ordered as he and Rudy leapt out of the car and raced up the street toward Steve and Jaime’s house.

Russ called the fire department then joined Oscar. “They’re on the way.

“Oh my G-d” Rudy cried as the flames of the demolished house shot into the sky. “I don’t see how they could have survived.

“Don’t say that Rudy.” Oscar tried to make his way into the house.

Rudy grabbed him “Where do you think you’re going?” He questioned.

“I have to go in there Rudy.” Oscar tried to break away from him but Rudy held tight.

“Rudy let go of me!” Oscar shouted. “This is my fault don’t you see it’s my fault…”

“No it’s not.” Rudy assured. “It’s not your fault!!”

Oscar continued to try and break free of Rudy’s grip but Rudy continued to hold fast. “Just wait for the fire department.” Rudy could only stare at the house which by now was beyond saving.

Oscar turned to say something but was stopped.

“Oscar! Rudy!” they heard the voice calling from a few feet away. They turned to see Steve, Jaime and Robbie walking toward them.

“Steve!” Oscar cried. “How did you…”

“It pays to have a wife with bionic hearing.” Steve smiled. She heard the explosives before they went off. Suspecting the worse, I got my family out just in time.”

“Well that’s a relief; I suppose you won’t be going back to the Soviet Embassy anytime soon.”

“You think that’s who did this?” Steve asked as the fire department arrived on the scene.

“I know they are the ones. They’ve known ever since you left the embassy that that you didn’t kill me.” Oscar explained.

How did they figure that out?” Steve wondered.

“I suspect our fair secretary had something to do with it.” Oscar sighed. “Look why don’t we get you guys somewhere else.” Oscar suggested.

“I agree. I better talk to the fire marshal first.” Steve stepped over to him.

“I’m sorry Col. It’s a total loss.” The Fire marshal told him.

“Yea, I figured as much.”

“At least you and your family got out safely.” The Marshal indicated.

“You have a point there. Is there anything else you need from me?” Steve asked.

“Not right now. Leave an address as to where we can get in touch with you.” The Fire Marshal suggested.

“I will.” Steve wrote down the address and phone number of Rudy’s uncle in Arlington and handed it to the Fire Marshal. “Let me know how it ends up. I’ve got to take care of my family.”

“I understand.” He looked at the address. “I’m glad you have somewhere to take them.” He gave a slight smile.

Steve piled Jaime and Robbie into Oscar’s car and Oscar gave them a ride to Arlington. “I can’t believe this has happened.” Steve commented as Oscar drove.

“I guess it’s as much my fault.” Oscar groaned “I never should have let you take it this far. I underestimated the people we were dealing with.”

“Don’t blame yourself. I should have known better too.” Steve whispered. Rob had fallen asleep on his shoulder and he didn’t want to wake him.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

It was past 3:30 in the morning when they pulled up in front of the house owned by Rudy’s uncle. “There isn’t much room.” Oscar noted as they all got out of the car.

“I couldn’t sleep anyway.” Steve picked up Rob and carried him into the house.

“Same here” Jaime agreed “I’ll put on a pot of coffee.”

“Good idea. We’ll more than likely need it.” Rudy opened the door and they all stepped in. Rudy pointed Jaime to the kitchen and Oscar led Steve to the room he had just vacated. Steve laid the still sleeping Robbie down on the bed then joined every one in the kitchen.

“So what do we do now?” Steve asked once they were all seated.

“I’m not sure.” Oscar sighed. “My first choice would be to play it out…”

“Play it out?” Jaime asked.

Oscar nodded. “That is if it will work. It all depends on if they were listening when you all got out of the house…”

“So what you’re saying,” Steve continued. “Let them think they actually killed us?”

Again Oscar nodded. “I think it will work. I mean as long as they didn’t hear you leave the house. They should assume all are dead.”

“That could be. But are you saying we should go into hiding? I don’t know if I like that.” Steve disapproved.

“It won’t be forever Steve. Just till we can flush them all out” Oscar encouraged. “If they find out you’re still alive, they could come after your family. Oscar reminded.

Steve looked at Jaime, who under normal circumstances could take care of herself. But now she had not only herself to think about, but a baby as well. And then there was Robbie sleeping upstairs. No this didn’t involve just him this time he had a family to take care of.

“Ok Oscar what do we do?” Steve asked

“We send you, Jaime and Robbie to another part of the country….”

“Ojai?” Jaime asked.

“That would be too obvious.” Oscar muttered. He thought for a long moment “how about someplace in the Midwest?”

“Where?” Jaime asked.

“I don’t know. Let’s get a map.” Oscar found a map of the United States and they cut out the Midwest section.

“Now” Oscar closed his eyes. “I’ll point to a state, and then from the state we’ll pick out a city.”

“Sounds very scientific” Rudy laughed.

Oscar’s finger landed on the state of Iowa. “Ok now we find a city. We need a map of Iowa.”

A map was found. Rudy’s uncle traveled a lot and had maps from just about every state.

“Ok Oscar. Now find our new home.” Steve laughed.

Oscar closed his eyes and pressed a finger to the map. “Well looks like your new home is in the capital. Des Moines.”

“I’m sure you had nothing to do with that.” Jaime smiled.

“No I didn’t It was the luck of the draw.” Oscar’s face remained serious. “Now we have to find you some new identities,” Oscar continued.

“New identities?” Steve asked.

“You can’t keep your names. I’ll run over to the OSI, see what we have in the witness relocation file. We’ll need a family with one son.” Oscar muttered as he walked for the door. “You stay here. Rudy you come with me. Now that I’m not dead, I can go back to work. “

“We better play up on what happened.” Rudy suggested as they left the house.

After they had gone Jaime turned to Steve “I don’t know if I like this very well.”

“I don’t like it at all, but what else can we do. I’m not going to have them come after you the baby and Rob.” Steve sighed.

“I suppose you’re right.” Jaime finally agreed. “We need some clothes to wear. We lost everything.” Jaime reminded.

“I know, but we can’t be seen in public What if they were to see us.” Steve explained.

“So what, we just sit here and wait for Oscar to come back?” Jaime sounded nervous.

Steve nodded. “He’ll take care of everything.”

<<<<<<<>>>>>>

At the OSI Oscar and Rudy entered Oscar’s reception Fayina was still sitting at Callahan’s desk. “Well Amanda.” Oscar continued the game. “just one more day and Callahan will be back.”

“Yes sir.” Fayina gave him a fake smile ‘That is if she makes it back’ she thought “Is there anything I can get for you?”

“Not at the moment. I’ll let you know. You heard about what happened last night?”

“Yes. Is it true?” Fayina needed the information to pass on to her comrades.

“Yes I’m afraid it is.” Oscar dabbed his eye. Then he turned to Rudy. “What really angers me is that they involved Jaime and Robbie as well. I mean if they had a grudge against Steve then take it out on him, but why involve a pregnant woman and an innocent child. Those dam Soviets you just can’t trust them.” Oscar added that for good measure.

“I know. Rob was a great kid too.” Rudy finished.

“Well come on Rudy we have to make arrangements.” They stepped into Oscar’s office. “Did you see her eating up everything we were saying?” Oscar whispered.

Rudy nodded. “I loved what you said about the not trusting the Soviets. That was a nice added touch.”

“That’s what I thought.” Oscar and Rudy continued to whisper as Rudy went through the files for witness relocation to come up with new identities for Steve, Jaime and Robbie.

At last he found the file he was looking for. “Come on Rudy let’s get back to your uncle’s house.” They stepped back into the reception area “I’ll be out of the office most of the day. If I have any messages just leave them on my desk.” Oscar knew there wouldn’t be any. Everyone knew Amanda was a Soviet spy and called Oscar directly on his private line.

“I need to get some money for them they will have to buy everything new.” Oscar said as he got into his car. He handed Rudy some money. “Here get them something to start out in.”

“Right Oscar I’ll meet you back at my uncle’s place. Say in about an hour.”

“Sounds good” Oscar got in his car and drove to Arlington. Checking every few minutes to make sure no one was following him. No one was.

<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

“What are you saying dad?” Rob cried when he woke up "I have to switch schools again?”

“Son it’s the only way.” Steve tried to reason with him. “It’s not forever…”

“I won’t go!” Robbie screamed.

“Robbie" Steve scolded...
