John leaned against the cold concrete wall of the parking garage and stared at the dark blue sedan. "You're sure about this?"

They'd left Amelia in the hotel room in Queens, continuing the research she'd started hours ago in Hartford and continued during their drive into New York City. According to what she was digging up, Messenger had been increasingly involved with leading medical researchers around the world.

He shouldn't be surprised, his personal experience within the Unknown Identities program had left him with a few permanent changes no one expected. Hell, he was standing next to a man who was basically invisible and more than a little warped emotionally from the process.

Supposedly, Unknown Identities agents were on the right side of any mission, but John didn't like the way the various pieces were fitting together.

"No doubt in my mind." In the shadows enveloping them both, Ben explained how he'd tracked the car. "End Game is living out of that car."

"Guess the program isn't paying like it used to." He thought with more than a little pride about the UI pay he'd managed to secret away. It would help all three of them stay off of Messenger's radar. "What else have you found?"

"Haven't seen him with Messenger, yet, but he's been tailing a woman, so I've tailed him. He hired a purse snatcher, but I intercepted the delivery." He shifted and handed John a big, oversized purse. "Name is Selena Vaccaro."

John did a quick inventory. "Quite a watch collection in here. Has she got a problem?"

Ben laughed. "End Game is tailing her, what do you think?"

True, John agreed with a shrug. He pulled out the phone and checked the recent logs. "Shit. That doesn't look good." He showed Ben the most recent text message, a picture of a woman tied to a chair, mascara staining her cheeks under the blindfold. The sign in her lap read, 'Please, Selena. The watch is ticking'.

"Aw, hell," Ben mumbled. "Someone's using her."

"Could it be one of ours –" John stopped. He wasn't with the program anymore. "I mean is it one of Messenger's?"

"Don't think so. According to the roster, the only other UI agent in town besides me is End Game."

John marveled that Ben knew so much about the inner workings of Messenger's system. Despite the oddities, Ben was becoming an invaluable asset. The shadows rippled and John heard the scuffle of Ben's boots on the pavement.

"Don't sweat it, Ben."

"What do you want me to do?"

John heard the guilt in his friend's voice. "Any idea where End Game is?"

"Oh, yeah. Sure."

"Stay on him and keep me informed. Don't let him kill anyone if you can help it. I'll take this to Amelia and see what she can do."

"Sure thing, boss."

John stayed in place until he couldn't hear Ben's footsteps anymore, then he left in the opposite direction. Messenger, End Game, potentially another UI operative in town… this holiday was quickly turning into a nightmare.
