and Sahir both carried a baby strapped to their chest, as they approached the caution tape covered house. The sky was dark with no stars in sight. Just a crescent moon to give off light.

"Entering the house of a dead man is not my idea of fun." Samia said as she stood behind Sahir.

Looking behind himself, Sahir rolled his eyes at Samia.

"You use to enjoy this all the time, stop acting different in front of the twins." He said before turning back towards the door.

With a flashlight and a handmade lock pick, Sahir found a way to open the locked door. Placing the pick into his back pocket, Sahir placed his hand on the door knob. Looking behind himself to make sure that Samia was fine, he twisted the door knob and stepped to enter the house — only to see Detective Henderson standing directly behind the door with a smile.

"Funny seein' you guys here." He said with a smug facial expression.

Sahir let out a dry chuckle.

"I thought that officers like yourself, that work mostly in the office, wouldn't be at a crime scene at this time of night." Sahir said to him, before looking around him, knowing his partner in crime was somewhere close by.

"We knew that spies like you would be out at this time of night." A voice said from behind them, taking confident steps.

Samia turned around right when Lieutenant Blue stopped, sending a ridiculously sweet smile his way.

"Lieutenant Blue, I would've expected you to be home with that wife and lovely daughter of yours." Samia said while looking into Lieutenant Blue's eyes, enjoying the amused look leaving his face.

"He might be in the dog house, baby." Sahir said sending his famous smirk Lieutenant Blue's way.

"We're actually here because we would like ta' know the whole story of why you guys are here and why a dead body was at the cemetery." Lieutenant Blue said walking around Sahir's frame to stand face to face with him.

Sahir's eyes widened, before he let out a low whistle.

"I'm not the smartest guy, Raymond, but I'm pretty sure that dead bodies belong in cemeteries." Sahir said shaking his head at Lieutenant Blue's foolish comment.

"You know what I mean, jackass." Lieutenant Blue said stalking forward.

Covering a sleeping Seiji's ears, Sahir looked at Lieutenant Blue and said, "I don't care how you talk around your kid, but please don't curse around mine."

"We know who to not let our kids stay around during a play date." Samia mumbled, making Sahir laugh.

Sensing Lieutenant Blue's anger about to rise, Detective Henderson decided to step in.

"For once can you guys be serious? We just want ta' know the full story."

Sahir and Samia looked at each other, before Samia shrugged her shoulder, making the decision that it was alright to tell them.

"We can tell you guys part of the story. Take it or leave it." She said eyeing both officers.

"You do know that we can bust you guys fa' breaking and entering?" Lieutenant Blue asked placing his hands on his hips in annoyance.

Sahir nodded his head, replying, "You can do that. We'll just have a nice talk with that governor of yours, again."

Smacking his teeth loudly, Lieutenant Blue began to walk towards a different room, signaling the Wests' and Detective Henderson to follow after him. Reaching the dining room, he sat in one of the chairs and Detective Henderson sat to his left. Across from him sat Mr. and Mrs. West, the twin's filled to the brim baby bag sat on the table.

"What do you know about a woman named 'Madame Sinclair'?" Sahir asked, deciding to get straight to the nitty gritty.

"Wasn't she the one who was sent ta' jail fa' the Bloomberg heist, but somehow escaped?" Detective Henderson asked, receiving a head nod from Samia.

Sliding the file that Samia carried in the baby's bag over to the officers, Samia began to say, "That's her. After the heist two years ago, she went into hiding. We always knew where she was, but we decided to back off for a while. In the two years time span, she plotted on stealing a very explosive plastic that is highly unstable. Our job is to capture the plastic and her, before she can use it for what she plans to."

"So she's in New Orleans?" Lieutenant Blue asked placing the file back down onto the table.

Samia nodded her head.

"Our sources led us to believe that she is. She has her people stationed all over in factories for industrial theft. She's stealing weapons, selling them, that kind of stuff." Samia said with a shrug.

Detective Henderson sat with eyes widened in shock, realizing how much bigger this problem was than what they expected.

"And you guys are here ta' find her and send her back?" Lieutenant Blue asked causing Sahir to nod his head.

"We have to get her to leave voluntarily. Once that's done, we'll be out of your head."

"Do you think-" Detective Henderson started. "that Austin worked fa' Madame Sinclair."

"He did." Samia said while keeping her eyes on a sleeping Sayid. "He was the middle man that Madame Sinclair used to get weapons and other products from."

"Now we have to find the other middle man, that Austin was also giving the products to." Sahir said causing Lieutenant Blue and Detective Henderson to nod their heads slowly.

Looking across the table, behind the officers sitting across from her, Samia's eyes locked on the mirror. It was the most ordinary, rectangular shaped mirror, except it showcased a crooked painting on the wall, behind her seat.

Standing up slowly, so that she didn't interrupt Sayid's sleep, Samia stood in front of the painting. Seeing that there was only a nail holding the painting up, Samia picked up the painting. Most would find the painting heavy to hold, but it was as light as a feather to Samia. Sitting the painting down onto the ground and standing back up, Samia was face to face with a hole in the wall filled with money.

Samia was about to call out to Sahir, but she realized she didn't have to, sensing that he was already behind her.

Moving Samia to the side gently, Sahir stood in front of the hole Moving his hand towards the hole, he began taking out the stacks of money that filled it. Multiple stacks of money graced the ground by the time Sahir was finished. By then, Lieutenant Blue and Detective Henderson has already made their way over, curious about the giant sum of money that the other officers missed, that was sitting in the wall.

"Nothing, but money." Sahair said looking at Samia with emotionless face.

"What's wrong with money?" Detective Henderson said with a chuckle, stopping when he realized that he was the only one laughing.

"We were looking for a name." Samia said locking eyes with Sahir.

Moving the money back to its original place in the wall, Sahir hung the picture right where it was initially.

"Well this mission was a bust." Sahir said looking at the officers and nodding his head.

Grabbing the baby's bag that sat on the table, Samia began to walk towards the door. She didn't have to turn around to know that Sahir, and the officers, were following suit. Making her way to the door, Samia opened it wide, before taking a step outside the door. Looking across the street, Samia paused in her stride.

"There's a bank with an atm machine across the street from his house." Samia said causing Sahir to look ahead.

Both Detective Henderson and Lieutenant Blue looked across the street, not seeing anything out of the ordinary.

"That's very interesting." Samia said before continuing to walk towards the car.

"Very." Sahir said following in suit.

The Wests' left Lieutenant Blue and Detective Henderson standing on Austin Even's porch with a confused look on their face.
