    Summary

    Grace kept running, using frantic energy he had never felt before. He was sure if he just ran long enough, he would escape.

    Suddenly the trees ended and he was running through a meadow. The ground flattened and Grace ran faster, each breath burning in his throat as he chased his freedom.

    Something hit his back. He fell to the ground, the shock of it bringing tears to his eyes.

    Hands grabbed his arms, yanking them behind him. He twisted, crying out as he tried to get free, but he was no match for the weight pinning him down.

    He twisted his head to look up as Simon pulled a needle out of his pocket, pulling the cap off with his teeth and spitting it to the side. His gaze was cold, determined.

    “Please,” Grace begged. “Please, don’t do this Simon!”

    “I’m sorry,” the man said. “I have to.”

    He plunged the needle into Grace’s neck.

     

    In other words, Simon learns that Grace is getting sent on the Hail Mary and he makes the most selfish decision possible: saving Grace himself.

    Summary

    The man lying in front of her looks like Six. Almost exactly like him, actually. But there are hairline differences that she's only really seeing now that he's close. He's big, but not particularly muscular. He's wearing a shirt with Snoopy on it. When she checks his mostly bare arms, she finds none of the scars or tattoos she made a careful study of during the few days she knew him.

    She also realizes where she knows the divets on his nose from; her uncle has the exact same thing when he takes his reading glasses off and kisses her head goodnight.

    He's not Six. She has no idea who this is.

    "What the fuck." Claire whispers.

    Summary

    “I’m Courtland,” The kid paused, staring at Holland for a moment with an intensity he had never seen in any teenager's eyes. Even Holly’s determined glare couldn’t beat this kid. “Maggie’s son.”

    Holland could have been shot in the heart with his gun and it would have had the same effect as those words.

    “And this is Ryland and Colt.” Courtland continued, nodding his head to the two beside him. Neither moved at the acknowledgment of their names. No tiny waves or whispered greetings. They were unnervingly silent and still.

    Holy shit. Holy fucking shit...How on earth did his dead sister’s children end up on his doorstep beaten and bloodied?

    Or: Suddenly Holland March has six kids instead of one

    Summary

    Sierra Six had ruthlessly culled all of Court from himself, carefully paring away slices of the boy between missions and flinging them behind him to the depths of time, until all that was left was Fitzroy's asset. Could only be the weapon the CIA had invested so much in. But as Claire threw her arms around him in the safe house where Suzanne had stashed her, Six realised that he remembered exactly when he had last been held without the intent to harm.

    -

    Court Gentry is not used to being in control of his own life, much less someone else's. He doesn't suppose a change in situation is going to lessen the universe's interest in tossing him around like a ragdoll.

    He would be right.
