------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------

Apollo ran out of the ship to the wall of the parking garage looking down.

"It's a long way down. We need to be careful when we use the stairs, okay. And always stay low," she said.

She carefully walked to the stair case followed by the others. She took out a gun and made sure it was loaded.

"On my count we will run down ten flights of stairs, okay," Apollo said.

"Okay," Detective Johnson replied.

"In 3...2...1."

They ran quickly down the stairs and when they reach the bottom of the last one, they stopped and Apollo viewed the surrounds.

"Okay, now we need to run straight to those doors," she said.

"You're the leader. We will do whatever you say," Warrant said.

"Okay. Warrant, you will ran over there first, then me and finally Detective Johnson. I will gave you a beckoning signal for you to come Detective and when you see it run like hell towards us."

"Got it," Detective Johnson replied.

"Okay...Warrant go now."

Warrant ran to the doors and waited. Then a few seconds later, Apollo ran for it. They got the door open and Apollo beckoned Detective Johnson to come which he did. They walked into the hotel which was old, completely dirty, and torn apart. They quickly ran thought it to the exit where they had to quickly ran outside and into other one or ran outside until they got to the end of the rolls of casinos where they needed to go to into a hotel. Apollo choose to stay outside, it was quicker and by now night had come. The city of lights was no more and in the darkness they can go unnoticed.

They quickly ran past it all and across the street. Then they walked on to a long passageway that lead to the entrance of the hotel that used to light up with tons of colors. At the end of the passageway, they enter the hotel and ran through the lobby to a hallway of shops. The hallway twisted and turned until they got back outside. They went up a staircase to a old monorail station with an old monorail in the station.

"This will lead directly to the hotel we need to go to. I just need to hot-wire one of the monorail and some how give it some juice to take us there," Apollo said.

"What happen if that doesn't work?" Warrant asked.

"We'll walk there on the monorail track."

"That's dangerous."

"I love danger, but don't worry. I know what I'm doing with these things. I hot-wire them all the time."

Apollo went to a control center in the middle of the station and took out a toolbox. Then she took out a crowbar and opened the monorail engine door. She took the toolbox with her and in a few minutes she had the thing running. Warrant and Detective Johnson got in and Apollo closed the door. They took it to the hotel that was Apollo's home.

"I'm sure they will be watching us, so be careful and take out your gun. We will definitely be needing them," she said as she swung the automatic around into her hands.

"Okay," said Detective Johnson as he took out his gun.

They walked carefully to the hotel entrance and through the stores. As they walked up some broken escalator, they could hear some talking. Apollo sneaked to see the lobby and saw the three members of the council that talked to them on the ship.

"Okay, it's the moment we been waiting for," Apollo whispered to Warrant and Detective Johnson.

They walked out with their guns aimed at the three members.

"It's about time you came," said the one know called Aries.

"If you value your life, I suggest that you leave now," Apollo said.

"We have our orders and I personally want revenge for the death of Carmen," said Hermes.

"Me too. She was a beloved friend and it was your fault that she's dead," Aries added.

"Ben, Sam. It's you," Apollo said in surprise.

"Yes, it's us, but now it Aries and Hermes and let me introduce Aphrodite."

"But why? Why did you join the council? They were the one that killed Carmen."

"Why are you guys obsessed with this Carmen?" Aphrodite said, "I say let's kill them and get it over with. Then we can get to more members for the council."

"If you lay one on hand on my children, I will kill you."

"How can you if you're already dead?"

Aphrodite pulled out a gun and shot Apollo, but Apollo just dodged it and started shooting Aphrodite. They hit her and killed her instantly.

"You killed her," said Aries.

"It's her fault for trying to kill me," Apollo replied.

"Now you got us angry," said Hermes as he pulled out his gun and Aries followed.

Aries and Hermes started firing and Apollo, Warrant, and Detective Johnson headed for cover. Apollo fired back as soon as she got covered. Then Warrant started shooting one bullet at a time because you can only load one bullet in the life gun. And Detective Johnson shot when he saw an opening.

Apollo was down to the last two guns and each having the last of the ammo. Warrant only had one bullet left and Detective Johnston ran out a long time ago.

"It time for our death," said Apollo to Warrant.

"Yeah," he replied. He leaned in and kissed her passionately.

Apollo got up and walked towards Aries and Hermes fire. She took her guns and started firing at them and Warrant using his last bullet shot Aries killing him, but Aries got his last shot and hit Apollo knocking her down. Hermes walked up to her thinking she was dead and aimed his gun at her head.

"Here's a message from the Council of the Geeks," he said as he fired, but Apollo's head moved missing it by a hair.

"No here a message from Apollo," Apollo said as she shot him and landed on her dead.

"Apollo," Warrant said as he ran to her.

"Can you get this dude off me?" she said.

Warrant rolled Hermes' dead body over and helped Apollo up. Apollo went into his arms holding him.

"We need to see if your kids are okay," said Detective Johnson.

"Yeah," Apollo said, "Follow me."

She ran to an elevator hall and press the up button.

"Don't worry, we found a way to get electric for the elevators," Apollo said.

Then an elevator doors open and they walked on. She pressed the last button and it went up. After awhile the doors open and they walked down a short hall to Apollo's room. The door was open and Apollo ran in. The place was trashed and her children were no way in sight.

"Aphrodite! Dallas! Harry!" Apollo yelled, but she heard no answer, "Aphrodite! Dallas! Harry! No, no, no, NO!"

She fell down and started to cry. Warrant went to her and put his arms around her. Then she clung to him and cry into his shirt.

"They can't be. They can't be," she yelled.

"And they're not," she heard Harry say.

"What? Harry, you're alive and..."

"They're fine too. Right?"

"Yes," her two children said.

"Aphrodite and Dallas, you're all right," she said, "Come here, my two precious angels."

They ran to her and she picked them up. She hugged them and hold them tight.

"Apollo, don't do it," Warrant said to her as he came up to her while she was taking a book out in the study.

"Do what?" she asked.

"Fulfill your promise to Harry."

"Oh that. You don't have to worry about it. That's in the past."

"You already did it."

"Yes and no. You see I was about to do it, but I couldn't, lucky he understood."

"Good. I want you all to myself now."

"You do, do you? Sorry to tell you this, but I'm the only one that own this body and I can do what the hell I want with it."

"No you don't."

"What? You trying to control me. Sorry I can't live with a man that will try to control me. I'm too much of a free spirit. I will do what the hell I want, when I want, and nobody have nothing to say about it."

"No, I'm not trying to control you. I just jealous and I want to be the only one that can make love to you for the rest of your life. Can you do this little thing for me?"

"I don't know."

"I think I know how to change your mind."

"How?"

He put his arms around her and pulled her close then kissed her. She put her arms around his neck and jump on him wrapping her legs around his waist. He pinned her against the bookcase and moved his kisses to her neck while his hands unbuttoned her shirt. He gentle laid her to the ground and kissed her again.

"Take me," Apollo said as she held out her hands and Detective Johnson put the handcuffs on her.

"Are you sure you want to do this Apollo?" Warrant asked.

"Yes. I just want to be all over with and just serve me time."

"Okay."

"Read Apollo her rights," Detective Johnson said.

"You have the right to remain silent and all you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."

"I know," Apollo said.

"Here the disk back, Detective," said an agent in the Universal Investigation Bureau named Jeffery Richardson. He was in charge of the Council of the Geeks case for about ten years now and worked on it for five years before that.

"Thank you, sir," Detective Johnson replied as he took the disk from Jeffery.

"I will like to see this Apollo if you don't mind."

"Yes, sir. She is being held in this station prisoner holding cell waiting to be transported to Pluto."

"Lead the way, Detective."

Detective Johnson led Jeffery to the UGP space station prisoner holding cell. Apollo was sitting on the bed in a orange jumpsuit reading a book.

"So what're you reading?" Detective Johnson asked as he opened the cell's door.

"A manual of how to break out of jail, Detective," she replied, "Got it from the library here."

"Figures. Anyway, I want to meet Agent Jeffery Richardson from UIG."

"Hello," she said as she extended her hand.

"You don't know how long I wanted to meet you," said Jeffery, "Can I be only with her?"

"Yes, sir," Detective Johnson said. He left the cell and waited outside in the hall.

"I know I would find you one day, but in the UIG," Apollo said, "I should of figure, but how in hell does an ex-council member get into the UIG."

"What they don't know won't hurt them. So how is she?" Jeffery said.

"Mother is fine."

"Good. I know Rachel would survive somehow."

"Yeah as a nun."

"A nun, huh? Sounds like something she would do. I have an offer for you, Apollo."

"What? Does it have to do with getting me out of here?"

"Yes. What do you think about working for the Universal Investigation Bureau?"

"How's the pay?"

"Pretty good and you get free coffee."

"I hate coffee."

"Good, you wouldn't want to drink that crap anyway. So how about it?"

"Sure. I get out of this place."

"Good. I will send someone to get you."

"Thank you, father."

"You're welcome."

One Year Later

"So homicidal or suicidal?" Warrant asked Detective Johnson as they entered a crime scene.

"Homicidal," Detective Johnson said.

"Do you know who done it?"

"Council by looks of it."

"Of course, it's the council," said Apollo from behind them.

"Apollo," said Warrant in surprise.

"Dude, they took my style," she said as she looked at the body.

"Do you know which member?" Jeffery asked.

"The new Apollo by the looks of it. He always try to copy the original."

"What are you doing here?" asked Warrant.

"This is now an UIG investigation. Agent Richardson and I are now in charge of this case," Jeffery said.

"So take your UGP's asses out of here," Apollo added.

"You're still the same," Warrant said.

"And why will I change?"

She pulled Warrant close to her and kissed him.

"Agent Richardson, we have work to do," Jeffery said.

"Same here, Warrant," said Detective Johnson.

"They aren't going to listen to us, will they?"

"There's not of chance of it."
