I sat back, re-reading Liam’s texts. I hated that I lied to him, but it was necessary. They couldn’t know about Jaimie, and they couldn’t know who I’d become. I watched my 2 ½ year old daughter dance around my quarters. She was still blissfully unaware that her mom was a spy and her dad was a pop sensation. But when she turned 5, she would start training, like I had. But unlike me, she wouldn’t leave and then come back 12 years later. “Widow, to the briefing room now, please.” I still have the best codenames. Right now, everyone is obsessed with Avengers, so based on my skill set, I’m the Black Widow of MI6… but to be specific, I am the living interpretation of James Bond… I’m 007. “Que Pasa?” I said, flipping into the room. “We have received word that a certain boyband is being trailed by Shadows.” I staggered, “Which band? And do we know which Shadows?” “You know the band, quite well, as well as the Shadow commander.” Here we go… I should have known Taylor would go after Niall. “I’m sadly on it.” I flipped back to leave. “One more thing…” I turned. “Take your daughter with you, Lou Teasdale will watch her while you are the makeup assistant.” I nodded and left.

Niall’s POV
It’s been two years since Aria broke my heart. I haven’t heard from her, none of the guys had. I wondered whether she had our baby or not, or if she was even still alive. “Oy, Niall! Helloo…?” My head snapped up as Liam smacked my face. “The hell mate?” I said. “Sorry, but you were zoned out.” “So you smacked me?” He shrugged, “Like we were saying, Lou’s got a new assistant and we are going to meet them in five minutes.” Liam stated. That didn’t sound exciting, but I pulled my Vans on anyways and followed them out the door. “Ok, we’ll go in one at time, so we don’t overwhelm her. Louis, you’re the oldest… GO!” Liam said. Louis fixed his hair and walked inside. Then we heard a scream.
