Is this destiny?

~ Los Angeles, Mediterranean villa ~

Wednesday

7:49 PM

Sarah and Aiden joined Jeff and JoAnna in discussing plans for handling Morgan family.

Sophia prepared several scenarios, and estimated outcomes. Everything is well documented, and she explained it to Sarah in person that afternoon.

Sophia is not there because she does not want to leave Cecilia unless it\'s absolutely necessary. Felix shares Sophia\'s opinion on that matter. They went to Sarah\'s and Aiden\'s house for dinner on the previous day, and that time apart from their baby was torturous for both Sophia and Felix.

Out of available scenarios, they picked one which they think works the best.

"In this way, Morgans are out of power, and their hotels will go to Penny.", Sarah summarized and told Jeff. "I think that it\'s wise to keep you out of this."

"I agree that the best outcome is the one where Marcus is not alerted that I am onto him. But how do we handle Morgans without my involvement?", Jeff asked.

Aiden understood Sarah\'s intention. "We will handle it under the name of Chaos. By spreading the word that Morgans offended Chaos, it will appear as we are retaliating and also, Marcus will keep his distance from one of his biggest supporters."

"Correct!", Sarah beamed. "And not just Marcus, but everyone will stay away from Morgans because no one wants to be at odds with us."

"Everyone knows that their bodyguard is the first one who joined Sarah under that stage." Aiden told Jeff. "We will use that and spice it up to get the rumors going. No one will think that you have anything to do with it."

Sarah approved. "And while we are dealing with his assets and reputation, you get your people to transfer hotels to Penny\'s name so that everything is legal."

Jeff nodded. "I like that. When should we act?"

"As soon as possible.", Sarah responded. "We have a confirmation that Mr. Davis spoke with Mr. Morgan yesterday afternoon. They know that Penny came out of LA Medical Center with Emma Ronin who is in a relationship with Charlie. This morning, Mr. Morgan sent two dozen of his people to Los Angeles. He is looking for Penny and it\'s just a matter of time before they find her. "

They all agreed that they need to deal with Morgans swiftly.

"Will you be able to get Melodie out tomorrow?", JoAnna asked.

Earlier that day, Melodie contacted them, saying that she has the information on Marcus from her father and that they can approach her at a nightclub in San Antonio tomorrow evening.

"Between Melodie and Penny, the two of us will help Penny stay safe." Sarah responded and saw JoAnna frown.

JoAnna wants Penny safe also, but Melodie can have a valuable information in their fight against Marcus.

Sarah saw that JoAnna is troubled. "Don\'t worry, Aiden and I are not going to get Melodie to safety, but we have an alternative… hear me out. The best way to approach a person in a nightclub without being suspected is to act as a couple. That is what Aiden and I planned to do. And now that we can\'t go, we think that Haru and Nala can go instead of us."

"Are they ready?" Jeff frowned at the thought that they are just kids.

Both Sarah and Aiden confirmed.

Sarah wanted to clarify why they decided on this approach: "We need to act tomorrow, or we will lose our chance for this week, because for the weekend we will all be in the White Mansion for your inauguration."

All four of them shared an understanding that the more they delay, the more Penny is in danger. Also, there is a chance that Melodie is caught or that she changes her mind. Sending a second team to handle Melodie is the best solution.

"Both Haru and Nala are capable fighters, smart and Nala is a great tactician. And they are a couple.", Aiden said.

"They need to go to a nightclub, and they are underage.", JoAnna found a problem.

Sarah laughed. "If that is the biggest concern, we are doing great. Jeff can get them IDs saying that they are over 21."

Jeff confirmed. "I can have that ready first thing in the morning."

JoAnna had to agree that this makes sense. "OK. Tell us what you need from us…"

~ Los Angeles, Cliffside villa ~

Sarah and Aiden returned to the Cliffside villa and called Haru and Nala to join them for a meeting.

Haru and Nala were ecstatic that they get to go for their own mission. In a nightclub! As a couple! This mission is getting better and better the more they knew about it.

Sarah gave Eve-vision lenses to Haru and Nala. They are not aware of Eve\'s existence, but they understood that the lenses are giving them an amazing vision upgrade.

"Put them on and get used to them.", Sarah said when she gave them lenses. "Play with the options available and ask any questions you might have.", she added after giving them a basic introduction into features available.

Sarah gave them ear studs for communicating. "They are great in canceling the background noise, perfect for a noisy nightclub."

They went over the plan for extracting Melodie several times.

Tomorrow, four of them will take Jeff\'s jet (which they are using most of the time) and head to San Antonio where they will reach in time for lunch. After lunch, Sarah and Aiden will help Haru and Nala check-in to a hotel, before they continue to Dallas. Past that point, Haru and Nala are on their own.

Haru and Nala have sessions with stylists at 5 PM before heading to the nightclub. Melodie will be in a VIP room with her regular clubbing-squad, and she will expect someone to approach her after 10 PM when she goes to the restroom. Once they get Melodie out of the nightclub, the three of them will go back to the hotel and wait for Sarah and Aiden to pick them up after they finish their mission in Dallas.

"We are estimating that we will meet you at your hotel around 3 AM.", Aiden told Haru and Nala. "Until then, Melodie\'s safety is in your hands. Be aware that there are two bodyguards who are with her usually. Sometimes they are inside the club, and on other times they wait for her at the main entry. If you need to take care of them, do it discretely. Don\'t attract attention. It\'s important that this is done low key so that we extend the time until her parents notice that she is missing."

"We don\'t estimate that you will encounter a situation where you are caught. BUT in case that happens, keep each other safe until we are back. The lens and ear studs have tracking capabilities. We will find you.", Sarah said and added: "Don\'t forget to eat. After the styling session, you will have plenty of time for a dinner."

Aiden agreed that food is important. "Haru, as a man, it\'s on you to find a restaurant and place a reservation…"

Haru looked at Aiden and nodded earnestly. Suddenly, he felt that out of the whole rescue mission in a nightclub, the most important thing is to pick a good restaurant for dinner. Because that is the first date-dinner he has with Nala, and he needs to leave a good impression.

Sarah felt the need to add: "You will have IDs which are allowing you to consume alcohol, but it you have any, you are in trouble. Make sure your mind is clear in order to prevent getting hurt or cause your partner to get hurt…"

Haru and Nala glanced at each other and smiled. They like that \'partner\' word.

"Tomorrow will be a busy day. Go and get rest how much you can...", Sarah ushered Haru and Nala away when they said that there are no more questions.

"Do you think they will get any rest tonight?", Sarah asked Aiden when Haru and Nala left.

"No way. With the excitement of their first independent mission, they also have a date. But that is on them… We need to finalize what are we doing with Morgans tomorrow…"
