Gem swerves into an alley, peddling hard. She was breathing heavily, hoping to lose the MPs. She looks back to see a few MPs pursuing her on foot, but lost sight of the other car. She bursts out of the alley only to stop as the missing MP vehicle blocks her way. She slams on her brakes and skids to a stop.

"Hands on your head!" Decker shouts, aiming his gun at the girl. Gem slowly places the bike on the ground and puts her hands behind her head. One of the MPs rushes forward and cuffes the girl. She walks forward to stand in front of Colonel Decker.

"Where's the rest of the A-Team?" He demands.

"I don't know. And, even if I did, I would never tell you." Gem says.

"Come on, Amber. Make this easy on yourself. We're not going to hurt your friends, but they need to spend time for what they did."

"For what they didn't do." Gem growls. Decker sighs at the girl's resilience.

"Put her in the back." He orders the MP. Decker looks at Gem once more. "We will find them, and I will capture the A-Team." Gem yelps when gunshots are fired and she crouches down.

"Let her go, Decker!" A certain white-haired man appears.

"Hannibal!" Gem smiles.

"Bring her over, Murdock." Hannibal orders. Murdock runs over, grabbing Gem by the arm.

"Come on, girl. We've gotcha now." She smiles at the man and follows him to the team.

"Are you okay?" B.A. demands, examining the girl.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Gem nods. "Took a bit of a tumble, but fine other than that."

"Toss over the keys, Decker." Hannibal says.

"You'll never get away with this, Smith." Decker says as he tosses the keys at Hannibal. Murdock takes the keys and un-cuffs Gem, who rubs her sore wrists.

"You say that, and I always end up getting away with it." Hannibal smiles. "Come on, guys."

"In you go." Murdock makes sure Gem gets into the van safely while Face covers him. Gem couldn't stop smiling as they pull away quickly.

"You guys...I missed you!" She exclaims, hugging the closest person to her, who was Murdock.

"We missed you too, girl. Old B.A. was going to punch Face for letting you get kidnapped." Murdock says.

"And I had a rightful reason too." B.A. says, huffing. Gem puts a hand on the man's shoulder.

"B.A., don't take it all out on Face. He did try to rescue me." She says.

"Hm, you see? I did try to stop them." Face says, pointing at Gem. Gem laughs when B.A. glares at Face, who nervously fixes his tie and sits back.

"What did those men want with you?" Hannibal turns to look at the teen.

"I-I don't know." She says, sitting back. "All I know is that if I didn't escape, I'd be in a bad situation."

"Those three goons were working for a scum-bag named Phillip Ivers." Hannibal says. "Ever heard of him." Gem shakes her head.

"What would Ivers want with me?" She asks.

"We don't know, but we will find out. Until then, you need to stay with one of us at all times, understood?" Gem rolls her eyes at B.A.'s statement.

"Yes, Mom." She teases. B.A. smiles.

"That's my girl." Hannibal laughs, lighting a cigar.

"I love it when a plan comes together."
