Steve walked into Oscar’s office to find Callahan on the phone. “Just a minute” she spoke. “Col. Austin, go on in. Mr. Goldman and Dr. Wells are expecting you.”

“Thanks Callahan.” Steve stepped into Oscar’s office. “What’s with Callahan?” He asked. “That’s not like her to be on the phone, unless its business related.

“It’s her mother. I guess he sister had her baby last night, and from what Callahan told me this morning there was more than one stork.

“Oh I see. What did you two want to see me about?” Steve asked as he sat in the chair next to Rudy.

“We’re receiving some disturbing reports from our agents in Russia. According to what… Yes Callahan, what is it.” Oscar spoke into the intercom.

“I hate to bother you sir but I need to ask a favor.”

Oscar looked from Steve, to Rudy, then back to the intercom “of course. Come on in.”

Seconds later Callahan joined the group in Oscar’s office. “Mr. Goldman. I really hate to ask but I need some time off.”

“Time off.” Oscar spoke as if the words were foreign to him.

“Yes sir. That was my mother on the phone. My sister had twins last night…”

“Congratulations.” Steve interrupted “Boys or girls?”

Callahan laughed “one of each.”

“That’s great. I’ll be sure and tell Jaime I’m sure she’ll want to send something special.”

“You don’t need to do that.” Callahan argued.

“I know, but you know Jaime.”

“I suppose. Anyway Mr. Goldman, my family was wondering if I could come help out with the babies for a couple of weeks.”

“I suppose, I’ll call the secretary pool and have them send someone as a temporary replacement.

“As long as it’s temporary” Callahan continued laughing. “I plan to leave later on this evening.”

“That would be fine.” Oscar gave her a wave “if you need to leave now feel free to do so.”

“Thank you sir I just might do that.” Callahan stepped out into Oscar’s reception area and made notes for the new gal who would take her place.

Rudy watched the scene play out then turned to Steve. “Speaking of babies, how’s Jaime feeling?”

“Pretty good” Steve replied.

“How’s Rob feel about being a big brother?” Rudy continued.

“He’s in love with the idea. I think he’s more excited than the two of us.” Steve laughed.

“Well that’s good.” Rudy smiled.

“Anyway Oscar” Steve began. “You were saying you were receiving some disturbing…”

“Yes from our agents in Russia They, the Russians that is, are most anxious in a new project we have been involved in.”

“Yea what’s that?” Steve asked.

“That’s the problem we don’t know. The reports we are getting say they are interested in a highly top secret project and they will pay any amount to get their hands on it.”

“It would help if we knew what they wanted.” Steve sighed.

“That’s your assignment pal. I want you to find out what they want.” Oscar told him.

“I’ll do my best Oscar, but no promises on this one.” Steve stood to leave.

“Deal’ Oscar agreed.

“Well the most I can do is snoop around.” Steve opened the door “I’ll get back to you Oscar.”

“Just keep me informed and be on your guard. Who knows, they may be after the secret of bionics.

“I’ll be careful Oscar, don’t worry.” Steve left Oscar’s office and headed out onto the street. He saw Callahan struggling to catch a cab.

“Can I help?” Steve asked.

“I’d really appreciate that.” Callahan replied.

“No problem, where are you off to?” Steve asked.

“My place and then Dulles my flight leaves in two hours.” She told him. “I just have to throw some things in a suitcase, and then I’m ready.

“I’ll just give you a ride first your apartment, then the airport.

“Oh Col. Austin, you don’t have to do that.” Callahan gushed.

“I want to. It’s part of my present to the babies.” Steve held the car door for her. “ Besides Jaime would beat me with a hammer if I didn’t offer you a ride.”

On his way to Callahan’s he picked up the car phone to Call Jaime and tell her what he was doing.

The phone rang several times before Steve’s son Robbie answered. “Hello?”

“Rob? Is Jaime there?” Steve asked

“Yea but she’s busy dad.” Rob stated.

“Just tell her I’m driving Callahan to the airport. I might be a little late.”

“I’ll give her the message dad…wait here she is. ‘Mom’ its dad” Rob handed her the phone.

“Steve? What is it?” Jaime asked.

“I’m giving Callahan a ride to the airport. Her sister had the baby, she’s going to help out for a couple of weeks that is if Oscar can spare her long enough.”

"He better, did her sister have a boy or girl?”

“Both.” Steve laughed and hung up the phone leaving Jaime to wonder what was going on.

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

Steve stopped by Callahan’s apartment first so she could pack what she was going to need for the trip. He was so busy thinking about his own baby coming, (He hadn’t been this happy since he found out his first wife Maggie was going to have Robbie). He didn’t notice the car parked across the street from him. Nor did he and Callahan notice when the car began to follow them down the street. In fact it followed them all the way to Dulles. “Do you want me to come in with you?” Steve asked as they entered the parking lot.

“No. Col Austin, You’ve done enough as is. Thank you so much for the lift.”

“I can carry your bag to check it in.” Steve offered.

“No really the ride was plenty. I always buy a cart I have a bag I want to take on board anyway.”

“Well ok then.” Steve dropped her off at the door leading to her airline “I’ll see you in a couple of weeks.”

“Bye and thanks again.” Callahan grabbed her luggage and headed through the door.

The car that had been following Steve also stopped at the curb and the man sitting in the passenger seat turned to the driver. “I’ll find out where she’s going then grab a cab and meet you back at the embassy.”

“Better take this Boris.” He handed him a bag. “Just to make it look like you’re traveling.”

“Excellent idea Ivan this way I’ll blend right in. Maybe I’ll make friends with our friend Callahan.”

“Just don’t arouse suspicion we have gone to a lot of trouble to get our hands on this project. I don’t want her calling her boss saying that a Russian was asking her a lot of questions.”

“You know how tactful I can be, especially with the ladies.” Boris smiled.

“See that you are.” Ivan warned. “Now you better get going before you lose her.”

Boris got out of the car and headed into the terminal. ‘There she is.’ He smiled to himself as he spied Callahan trying to wrestle with the carts.

“May I help you?” He tried hard to disguise his Russian accent.

“I can’t seem to get these two apart, and I’ve already paid for them.” Callahan sounded winded.

“Here allow me.” Boris gave them a tug and they came apart, then he pulled one to the end and the machine and released it.

“Thank you.” Callahan replied.

“I’m surprised your husband didn’t assist you.” Boris spoke softly still trying to cover up his accent.

“I’m not married.” Callahan replied softly

“A pretty gal like you not married. I can’t believe it.” Boris smiled

Callahan picked up her luggage and placed it on the cart. “I’m going to Ohio for a couple of weeks. My sister just had twins.” Callahan unwittingly offered.

“Twins how wonderful” Boris responded. ‘This is way too easy’ he thought to himself. “Come I’ll buy you a drink and we can talk. Waiting in airports can be very boring.”

“I won’t argue with you on that point.” Callahan walked along as Boris pushed her cart.

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

“Did you get Callahan dropped off?” Jaime asked when Steve returned home.

Steve nodded then told her what his next assignment was.

“You mean Oscar has now idea what they want?” Jaime asked.

Steve shook his head. “Nor does he know how they will try to obtain it.”

“Let me know if I can help in any way.” Jaime looked around to make sure Robbie wasn’t around.

Steve headed for the phone and dialed Oscar. “Just wanted to let you know I’m calling it a night. I’ll get a fresh start in the morning.”

“That’s fine Steve. That reminds me. I need to call the secretary pool and have them send a replacement for Callahan.”

“I’ll leave you to it then.” Steve hung up and joined his family.
After seeing Callahan safely on the plane Boris phoned his comrades at the Soviet Embassy. “Callahan is going away for two weeks.” He reported to his boss.”

“Very good they will need a replacement. I think I know the right person.” Ivan laughed.

At the OSI Oscar called the Secretary pool and was told not to worry that they would have someone there for him in the morning.

“Thank you.” Oscar replied.

‘No problem sir.” The head of personnel responded.

“That will be just fine.” Oscar hung up feeling his job was finished.

Down in the personnel office Joe Lipski was busy shuffling through his index trying to find a suitable replacement for Oscar Goldman.

He called the number of one Amanda King to tell her she would serve as temporary replacement for Callahan, personal secretary to Oscar Goldman. “You need to be here at 9:00 am sharp.”

“I will be.” She promised.

Unbeknownst to them they weren’t the only ones on the line.

“Very good” Ivan smiled. “We will be ready….”

Oh no - poor Russ! Oscar's questioning of the witnesses (throwing out misinformation to the 3rd witness, to see if she'd correct him) was very clever.

It's amazing how they all knew about the gun(38). If I had been there I only could have said "he had a gun".

Haven't you already post this story on an other site? I remember to have already read a story in which there's a shooting in a Mac Donald while Steve's son was in with friends and was protected by Russ (who is shot too).

Bionika
Yes I did. Just sharing it here
Fortunately, I don't remember what had happened after (for instance I didn't remembered the witnesses' scene...or did you add it in the story for this site?) so I will still be very interested by this story.

"he pulls out this here ’38 and Shoots the guy the kid calls Russ.”

So it was a shot at point blank-range...doesn't sound good.

Steve and Oscar arrived at the hospital just as Rudy was coming out of surgery with Russ.

“How is he Rudy?” Oscar asked.

“He’s going to be just fine I’m certain of it. Do you have any clue where Robbie is?”

“We’re reasonably sure the Russians have him.” Oscar whispered.

“Steve! Steve!” Jaime called running down the hall toward them. “What happened, where’s Robbie?”

“We don’t know.” Steve held her close. “We just don’t know.”

Oscar turned to Rudy. “Keep me informed on Russ’ condition. I’m headed back to the OSI. I’m sure who ever has Rob will contact us there. Are you coming Steve?”

Steve gave Jaime a slight kiss. “Yea I’m coming.” Then he turned back to Jaime. “You stay here.”

“I will, be careful Steve.” Jaime cautioned.

“Don’t worry. The ones who need to be careful are the ones who have Robbie.” Steve and Oscar again left and headed back for the OSI They sat for hours in Oscar’s office hoping the Soviets would contact them.

At midnight the phone rang a weary Oscar grabbed it. “This is Oscar Goldman.” He thundered.

“Mr. Goldman I’m sure Austin is right there.” Boris sneered. “Just tell him we have his kid and if he wants to see him alive, he’ll hand over the plans to that new energy source he and Wells came up with.”

Oscar grabbed his private line. “Trace this call.” He whispered.

“I want to talk to him.” Steve shouted listening on the other line knowing he needed to stall so they could get a trace on the call.

It took several minutes but they finally got a sleepy Rob to the phone. “Just tell your father you’re alright.” Boris ordered.

“Go fly up a tree.” Robbie snapped. “I’m not saying nothing.”

“I told you to tell your father that you’re alright.” Boris ordered once again.

“Why should I. You just want to get off the hook with him I’m not talking to nobody.” Robbie continued to argue.

Steve could here the arguing. “At least Rob is ok.” He whispered to Oscar.

Oscar nodded. Then Boris got on the phone. “I’m sorry he won’t come to the phone….”

“I hear him in the back ground.” Steve smiled to himself as Boris slammed the phone down. His plan had worked. The tech team came in with the address.

“I’ll be right back Oscar. I’m going to get Robbie.” Steve headed for the door.

“I’ll get another agent to handle it.” Oscar suggested.

“I can handle it. All I want is to get Robbie out of there, and then we’ll deal with the project.

“Ok just be careful.” Oscar cautioned.

“You worry too much.” Steve opened the door and headed out of Oscar’s office. ‘What else will they do to get their hands on this project?’ Steve wondered.

He went to the address on the paper the tech people had handed him. He carefully scanned each room looking for Robbie. He found him alone in an upstairs bed room. Steve jumped up to the window and let himself in. Robbie was lying but not sleeping on the bed.

He heard the window open and looked to see who had just come in. “Dad.” He whispered.

“Come on Rob, I’ll get you out of here” Steve Whispered back.

“But how will we get out?” Robbie asked. “I know there are guards just outside the door.” Robbie continued to whisper.

“The same way I just got in. Come on climb on my back.” Steve carried Rob over to the window and he jumped to the ground. They landed safely and Steve continued to run up the street with Robbie clinging to his back.

When he felt they were safely away from the building they were holding Robbie in Steve set him down. “Are you ok?” He asked.

Rob nodded. “Yea I’m fine. But what’s going on?”

“They want a project I’ve been working on.” Steve stopped at a payphone and called Oscar. “Oscar it’s me. I have Robbie I’m taking him to National...

"Is he ok" Oscar seemed concerned as to why he would take him to the hospital.

"Yea, he's fine, that's where I left Jaime, he'll be safer there than the house.
I'll meet you in your office in about half an hour.

"Sounds good, I agree he'll be safer there." Oscar hung up and waited for Steve so they could plan their next move.

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

“Is Rob ok?” Oscar asked.

“A bit shaken, but he’ll be fine." He sat across from Oscar, "I asked Rudy about Russ, he says he'll be back in the game in no time."

"That's good" Oscar muttered

"Now we know what they want," Steve got back to business "how do we protect it?” Steve wanted to know. “That energy source isn’t ready for…”

“I know, Rudy told me. Of course we didn’t say anything about that to Hanson when we met with him.” Oscar noted. “I think we should move the entire project to the NSB.” Oscar continued.

“No Oscar that’s too risky. First of all the Russians might try to steal it from us when we move it, secondly Hanson could have his own people test it. That could prove disastrous.”

“I suppose you’re right. Maybe we should move it to Rudy’s complex in California or Colorado…”

“No like I said moving it is to risky. I wonder if they have someone on the inside. I just thought. How did they know about Robbie?”

“Don’t forget. Phil. Maggie’s second husband was a Soviet Operative…” Per Steve’s request he refused to refer to the man as Rob’s step father.

“Oh yea” Steve thought for a moment. “But how did they know where he would be?” Steve pointed out.

“That’s a good question. If we do have a spy here we need to find out who it is.” Oscar muttered.

“We’ll set a trap for them and use the project as bait.” Steve suggested.

“That could be risky, what if they get away with it?” Oscar asked

“I didn’t say we leave the real file out. We use a fake. Rudy and I will pretend to be going over the file. We’ll make it very obvious that’s what we are doing, and then we will carelessly leave it lying around.”

“Don’t you think that will be too obvious?” Oscar wondered.

“Let’s hope they won’t notice that. We’ll be watching the whole time too.” Steve added. “I just wonder who it could be.” He pondered.

Oscar and Steve left the OSI building around two. They thought it best to get good nights sleep seeing they were to possibly have a very busy day.

Later that morning around 9:00, after telling Rudy their plan they all arrived in Oscar’s office. “You’re sure this will fool them Rudy?” Steve asked as they read over the fake document.

“If they get out of here with it, it should hold them off for a little while. At least they don’t have Rob now.”

Steve nodded. “He’s staying home from school today Jaime can take care of him. How is Russ?”

“When I left he was complaining about how lousy his breakfast was.” Rudy smiled. “I think he’s going to be fine. He’ll probably be out tomorrow morning.”

“Well that’s good.” Steve surmised. “We just may need him.”

“What if it doesn’t fool them?” Even though he was concerned about Russ, Oscar changed the subject.

“I have a back up plan.” Steve looked at the two of them.

“And what would that be?” Oscar demanded.

“I’ll let you know when and if the time comes.” Steve smiled.

“I don’t think I like the sounds of that.” Oscar looked from Steve to Rudy who also had no idea as to what Steve was up to.

They sat for a few more moments in silence when the buzzer on Oscar’s intercom brought them all back to reality.

“Yes Amanda?” Oscar hit the button on the intercom.

“You have a phone call from Joe Lipski in personnel.” Fayina told him.

Oscar looked at the two in front of him. “Wonder what he wants?” He asked.

“Maybe you better find out.” Steve pointed to the phone.

Oscar picked it up. “This is Oscar Goldman. What can I do for you?”

“Mr. Goldman. I don’t know how to tell you this, the secretary I found to replace Callahan, Amanda King I believe he name was.”

“Was?” Oscar reached over and put the call in the box so Steve and Rudy could both here. “Did you say her name ‘was’ Amanda King?”

“Yes sir. I’m just calling to apologize for her not showing up to work. Her body was found floating in the Potomac early this morning. I just received the call.”

“Would you repeat that?” Oscar asked.

Joe repeated the information to the stunned group of men listening to every word.

“Thank you for your information.” Oscar muttered.

“I’ll send someone right away.” Joe persisted.

“No. That won’t be necessary” Oscar told him. He hung up and turned to Steve and Rudy. “So that’s it. The Soviets are slyer than I thought. Obviously ‘Amanda’ is not who she says she is.” Oscar whispered. He was now nervous. The Soviets had invaded his haven, his work space. What else were they capable of?

Outside in Oscar’s reception area, Fayina also hung up.

“Well at least we know now how they found out about Robbie.” Steve stood. “We know who the informant is, that’s what this was to find out. I guess now it’s time for plan B.” Steve stated.

“What’s plan B?” Oscar asked.

“I don’t think I better tell you.” Steve looked from Oscar to Rudy then back to Oscar.

“The less you know the better.” He paused just before leaving “Just play along huh?” he whispered.

Oscar watched him leave then turned to Rudy. “I wonder what he’s up to.” Oscar muttered.

“I don’t think we want to know.” Rudy stated. “But I think we better ‘play along’ as he said. He has the file. I would assume he’s headed for the Soviet Embassy to give them a piece of his mind…

The problem is that Fayina (so the Russians) knows that they know that she is the traitor.

SO happy that Russ is okay! But now I'm really worried for Rudy and Oscar, with a known traitor on the other side of that office wall. And hopefully Steve will be able to keep his cool. Nice set-up!

After he left the OSI parking lot Steve drove to the Soviet Embassy. He pulled up to the gate and flashed his ID, “I want to see who ever is in charge.” He demanded.

“What is this in regards to?” the guard asked him.

“I have some information you may find interesting.” Steve showed him the file for the energy source project.

The guard looked at it. He recognized it right away. “You may go on in.” The guard stated.

‘I thought as much.’ Steve thought.

As soon as Steve’s car pulled into the parking lot, the guard called Ivan’s office.

“Yes what is it?” He was annoyed at being interrupted.

“There is a Col. Austin from the OSI on his way in.” The guard informed him. “And just for the record he has the file on the energy source project with him.”

“This is an interesting development.” Ivan smiled at Boris.

They greeted Steve at the main entrance. “What brings you here Col. Austin?” Boris greeted.

“I have something you want.” Again Steve held up the file.

“We are interested in this new energy source you and Dr. Wells have…”

“Wells had nothing to do with it!” Steve shouted. “This project is mine!”

“I see.” Boris turned to Ivan and shrugged.

“Wells is trying to lay claim to it. He’s billing it at his project.” Steve answered their unspoken question.

“I think I understand.” Ivan hesitated. “Let’s go to my office shall we?”

Steve followed Boris and Ivan to Ivan’s office.

“It’s like this.” Steve began once they were seated. “This project is my baby. I’m the one who came up with the idea. Now Wells wants all the credit for it. He actually told Goldman the idea was his and his alone.”

“I understand now.” Boris smiled.

“I don’t know if you do. I’ve heard you are very interested in the project. You kidnapped my son; you even committed murder to get your hands on it.

He looked at the puzzled expressions on their faces.

“Don’t deny it. They found the body of the real Amanda King this morning. I’m sure the woman who says she is Amanda is one of your people.”

“That would be true.” Ivan admitted. “I’m terribly sorry for taking your son. We thought…”

“I know what you thought. As much as it goes against everything I believe in I want to trade sides. I feel you will give me the credit I deserve.”

“We will have to consider your proposal.” Ivan stood to leave. “Come Boris we must discuss this with the director.”

The two men left the room. Steve wanted to call Oscar and tell him all was going according to plan, but he was afraid the phones would be bugged. He moved around the office and scanned the faux file once again He wanted to make sure that anything they read was totally false and that they would not be able to figure the project out

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

In Oscar’s office Oscar and Rudy were doing their own pacing. “I just hope he hasn’t done what I think he’s done.” Oscar broke the silence.

Rudy gave a nod toward the door that separated his inner office from the reception area. Oscar took the clue and began speaking louder so their conversation could be heard. It sounded as if he were yelling at Rudy.

“You don’t think he took the project to the other side do you?” Oscar kept his eyes on the door.

“I wouldn’t blame him if he did. Look what’s happened so far. Rob was kidnapped, Russ was shot.” Rudy also directed his conversation toward the door. “I’m sure he thinks he made the right choice to turn it over to them.”

They made their way across the office still yelling. Oscar flung the door open and Fayina stood just on the other side.

“Yes Amanda” Oscar spat.

“I’m sorry sir. I was just coming to see if I could get you anything.”

“A reliable agent would be good for starters.” Oscar snapped.

“Excuse me?” Fayina asked.

“Never mind not your concern” Oscar and Rudy stepped out into the hall They walked down to Rudy’s office where they were able to view Oscar’s entire office on the closed circuit TV Steve had insisted they have installed for security. It worked the opposite too. You could view Rudy’s office from Oscar’s office.

Sure enough Fayina picked up the phone and quickly dialed her comrades in the Soviet Embassy. “Col. Austin has left the OSI.” She confirmed.

“Really, that is very interesting.” Ivan smiled at Boris. “We were just about to call you to confirm this.”

“Then I saved you the trouble.” Fayina laughed.

Oscar and Rudy sat watching and listening to the conversation in Rudy’s office. “You were right Rudy. Steve obviously wants them to think he’s switched to their side. I better call Hanson and forewarn him.”

Oscar stood to leave. “You better do it from here, better yet go see Hanson in person.” Rudy suggested.

“Good idea Rudy. I forgot about our informant.” Oscar muttered.

How could you have forgotten?” Rudy wondered.

“I have a lot on my mind. If anyone needs me I’ll be at the NSB. As far as our informant is concerned I’m there discussing Steve defecting to the other side.”

“I’ll try to act upset.” Rudy ‘put on’ a somber face.

“I’ll be back in an hour or so.” Oscar left and headed for the NSB.

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

Back at the Soviet Embassy Ivan and Boris entered Ivan’s office where they had left Steve. “It’s about time!” Steve shouted. “I was getting ready to give up. Maybe someone else would like my project and my knowledge…”

“Don’t be so upset Col. Austin. We were just confirming that you did indeed leave the OSI.” Boris calmed.

“And what did you find out.” Steve only hoped Oscar and Rudy had been convincing enough.

“Welcome to the KGB.” Ivan stretched out his arms…

“I’m glad to see my talents won’t be wasted anymore.” Steve smiled.

“True, but first we must test your loyalty.” Ivan smiled.

“How’s that.” Steve was afraid he knew the answer he knew full well of the KGB and their methods to get you to do what they wanted.

“Just relax Col. Austin. We will let you know in time. In the mean time just sit back and enjoy our hospitality.”

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

Before going to the NSB Oscar stopped by Steve’s house to inform Jaime of what was going on. Fearing the house may be bugged by the Soviets Oscar spoke to Jaime so only she could here.

After they had sat in ‘silence’ for several minutes Oscar spoke aloud. “I don’t know how to tell you this Jaime. But it looks as if Steve has gone to work for the other side.”

“I know he has.” Jaime played along. “He’s very upset.”

“Do you know what he’s so upset about? Maybe we could remedy the situation.” Oscar was having trouble keeping a straight face.

“I don’t think so…” Jaime bluffed.

In a house across the street a tape recorder picked up the entire conversation.

After leaving Steve’s house Oscar made his way to the NSB he called ahead on his car phone to alert Hanson as to the conversation they were to have. Just in case the Soviets had a spy there as well.

It took a lot of convincing on Oscar’s part but he finally managed to convince him Steve hadn’t really defected.

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

In his room at the Embassy Steve was sitting in a chair waiting instruction on his first ‘assignment’ when the door flew open.

“Col Austin, please come with me.” Boris motioned.

Fearing the worst Steve followed. ‘Maybe this wasn’t such a hot idea after all.’ Steve thought as they went back into Ivan’s office.

“I want you to listen to something Mr. Austin.” Ivan sat behind his desk.

“Yea, what’s that?” Steve truly wondered.

Ivan played him the conversations between Oscar and Jaime.

‘Boy! These guys get around.’ Steve thought.

“Do you know what this means?” Boris asked.

“I’m an official member of your little club.” Steve smiled.

“Not quite yet. There is still one test left.” Ivan smiled.

“What would that be?” Steve wondered.

“We want you to kill someone for us. That within itself will prove your loyalty.”

“Who do you want killed?” Steve wondered.

“Here is his picture and file.” Boris handed him a folder. “It needs to be done before midnight tonight.”

“I understand.” Steve opened the file Oscar’s face stared up at him

Oh boy! I was worried they wanted him to kill Jaime... but this is just as bad! Will they be able to convincingly fake Oscar's death? Biting my fingernails here; well done!

“I don’t like it Oscar.” Hanson said when Oscar was seated across from him “I don’t like it at all.”

“You’re telling me you don’t trust Steve?” Oscar demanded.

“No that’s not it.. I don’t trust the Soviets. They could…”

“I know. I’ve thought about that. But I trust Steve’s judgment.” Oscar sighed.

“Then I’ll just have to take your word for it.” Hanson stood, he reached his hand across the desk and Oscar took it.

“Thanks for meeting with me.” Oscar replied.

“Let me know if there is anything I can do.” Hanson called as Oscar stepped through the door.

Oscar gave him a final wave and stepped out into the hall. Rudy was waiting for him. “I thought it would be safer to talk here. We swept Steve and Jaime’s house …”

“And?”

“Just what you suspected it’s bugged. I told Jaime I’d pick Rob up from school and explain everything to him.”

“Yea we don’t want them to slip.” Oscar pushed the button to call the elevator. “Hanson is ok with everything …for the moment anyway.”

“Well that’s good. What do you suppose they will have Steve do?” Rudy wondered.

Oscar shrugged. “I don’t know…”

“What’s bothering you?” Rudy wondered

“Something Hanson said. As much as we trust Steve I have a hard time trusting the Soviets. They could do things to him to get him to reveal things he doesn’t want to.”

“I thought about that. You’re saying they could brainwash him.”

“At least one of us has the guts to say it. Yea that’s what I’m afraid of. I never thought of that when Steve jumped into this head first.”

“I bet Steve never thought about it either.” Rudy sighed. By now the elevator had reached to main floor of the NSB building and they stepped off.

Steve continued to stare at the photo of Oscar’s somber facer staring up at him. “Why do you want Goldman dead?”

“Do you have a problem killing him?” Boris’ expression told Steve all he needed to know. This was the loyalty test they had spoken about. If he killed Oscar that would prove he was really ready to give up the OSI.

“No of course I don’t. But he’s not going to be an easy man to kill. He has a lot of security around him all the time.”

Boris and Ivan gave him a skeptical look.

“He does!” Steve roared “I worked for him for years. I know his security. The public can’t see it. Just like we don’t see the secret Service, but we know they are there. So you see I won’t be able to kill him before midnight tonight.”

Ivan and Boris nodded. “Ok we understand. How long do you think it will take?”

Steve thought for a moment he had to first get word to Oscar that his first mission was to kill him. He also knew about the stoolie they had in Oscar’s office. He wouldn’t be able to walk into Oscar’s office and just talk to him. “I’d say at least three days. More than likely four he’s not going to trust me now. I’m sure he knows I’m here.”

The two men nodded.

“You see He won’t trust me. I’ll need to arrange some sort of meeting away from the OSI” Steve explained.

“But if he won’t trust you…” Ivan questioned.

“You let me deal with that. But in the mean time there is another project I’ve been working on. I meant to bring it. I could go tonight and get it.”

“I don’t know it could be too risky.” Boris warned.

“I know the security system besides they aren’t going to think I’d dare go back there tonight.”

“Alright then’ Ivan reluctantly agreed.

“Good then I’ll go tonight.” Steve had it all planned. He had to meet with Oscar or at least give him some sort of warning that the Soviets had a contract out on him.”

“Boris will drive you. I’m sorry Co. Austin. I don’t trust you at all just yet. I won’t until you have killed Oscar Goldman...."
