I was jolted awake by the sound of alarms, but by the time I threw on a robe and ran down to the main entry the invasion attempt was over. I was devastated to discover that Jeri had been killed.

Mom quickly pulled me to the side and had me do a quick rundown of the previous night's events. She asked quite a few questions about the tactics that Diego's men had employed and I answered to the best of my ability. She looked quite thoughtful and told me she felt that Chuck needed to get aggressive and go after Diego. She said that she wanted to get her hands on the Don's captors to interrogate them.

I nodded and left her alone so she could approach Chuck with her plan of action. My job at this point was to gather Jeri's belongings and make arrangements for Chuck to pay a personal visit to her family.
