(015) Dr , Derek

While they were en route to the airstrip , Franklin and Vanessa mumbled to themselves at the back of the cab , the cab driver looked through the mirror and said ;

" Where do you guys say you from again ? "

Franklin; what ? Why all these questions, Sir , you are getting paid to drive us to where we want to be , and not to give us some crazy interview.

Cab driver ; oh , sorry My bad . I was just trying to be as friendly as possible here. You know I do this with all my passengers, it helps me connect with them , and get to understand their different views of life and perspectives .

Franklin; it's fine , I get you . But can just stop , with the questions?

Cab driver; yeah , absolutely.

Vanessa; Something is off . Is it just me or ? Why do I feel we have been kidnapped?

Franklin; yeah youre right , because we've actually been kidnapped.

Vanessa ; what ? What do you mean ? What are you talking about Frank ?

Franklin; look at the guys left hand , holding the door , there is a 9 mm Glock , and a pen knife there . Chances are may never get to that extraction site .

Vanessa; wait , so Tracy .....

Franklin; yeah she did .

Vanessa ; Oh my God ! You've got to be kidding me .

Cab driver ; Sorry guys , plans changed . Taking you two to Dr . Derek

Vanessa ; I don't even know who that is .

Cab driver : well, guess you are about to find out . And just to be clear , if you try to do something stupid , you hurting yourself the more . Because right when you both entered the cab , I had some gas on , it's called " Electrophiss" , it knocks you out , in 20 minutes, and judging by the time , I think you both literally have 1 minute and 2 seconds , oh I think it's 1 minute now.

Franklin; So , humor me , you and Tracy go way back ? Yeah she tricked us once, now this makes it twice , how was I so dumb not to read the handwritings on the wall ?

Franklin looks at Vanessa, she is already knocked out , and in few seconds too , he is off ...

Cab driver takes out his phone and contacts Tracy .....

Cab driver ; Yeah , packages en route to the mobile lab as we speak .

Tracy ; informed Dr, Derek ?

Cab driver; yeah he's aware , and expecting

Tracy ; very well then . I will see you in a bit .

Few minutes later .... They get to some abandoned warehouse and he drives the car in , and some men run over to take Vanessa and Franklin to the Doctor .

A bucket of cold water is splashed on their faces , and they jump up , realizing that they were chained to steel chairs , in which they say upon .

Dr Derek; Hello Franklin, and as some will like to call it , the Juliet

Franklin ; oh , wow ! So you the Doctor? What makes you a doctor? Tell me ? You do what? Attach bombs to people's intestines or what ?

Vanessa ; he is the guy , they call to get shit handled

Dr Derek; I have hoped for this day to come . Mr Fisher contacted me some months ago , and then there was Tracy . The girl who really do know how to take orders , and get stuff done . All we needed was for her to bring you guys to me . And here you are .

Gosh !! I must say , you guys are celebrities, haven't you heard? Your names are all over world news ! The BBC , CNN , Aljazeera , and lots more . You guys are fucking living legends !!

Franklin ; What do you really want from us ? Because I am pretty sure Fisher didn't ask you to kill us , you are just stalling is here . Look Man I have a home to go to , I got Rita , my mum , back in the US , and Vanessa also got her mum , crying out her eyes waiting for the day when she gets to see her daughter.

Dr Derek; you don't get it , do you ? There's no going home . You are summoned by the big fellas in Bangkok.

Franklin; what ? The triads ? What do they want with us ?

Vanessa ; this is all bullshit , I am getting exhausted here , Frank .

Dr Derek; you exposed their work to the Security Agencies. Now to kill you and Vanessa to keep that private. Which means what ever you saw and whatever you know about them , shouldn't see the light of day .

Franklin ; And if the the FBI gets to me first before them , I will confess and their shit is exposed and many of their clients will go MIA, and they go broke .

Dr Derek; Now you see why they can't let that happen, do you ?

Franklin ; hmmm... Do what's your role here ? You just gonna hold us here for days till they send some representatives here ?

Dr Derek; Yeah , of course , if I have to.

Vanessa ; He is lieing Frank . All these are all lies . Don't even know what to believe. I am not even sure the triads even knows that he even exists . He is just someone that wants to make good money , by trading us to the triads .

Franklin; Mr Fisher, your friend?

Dr Derek; Fisher ? Nah .. we went to high school together though, he was a pain in my ass . The guy literally stole all the girls I crushed on in school from me . I hated him for that . But as we grew up , we set our differences aside and saw a way we can work together for the greater good . And see how that has turned out ? The guy is not always a jerk , all the time . He linked you guys to me , with the help of Tracy , and all I had to do , was to set up a cab driver, who would bring you guys here . And here you are !!

One agent , works up to him and says " Boss , I think we might have a problem , Han has reached out, he says he wants them at Bangkok , tomorrow, 1pm at most .No delays ."

Dr Derek; Hmmm... I guess business is going faster than I expected !!!

With a smile on his face , he left that area , and went out to make a call ...

One agent stylishly walked up to Franklin

Agent ; Frank , hey ! , I will help you two . Just sit tight , and don't try to look suspect, ok. Frank and Vanessa replied with a blink of eye .

Dr Derek came back , excited.....

Dr Derek; well guys , who wants to go to Bangkok ??? Han has requested for you both to be at Bangkok tomorrow afternoon, no excuses. $12 million , baby !!!!!! It's mine to claim !!!!
