After the funeral Criss and his mother were at the house. "That was a nice funeral for Honey's grandmother"criss replied as Dimitra came over with some lemonade. "I'm surprise to see Danny there"Dimitra remarked. "Maybe he came with Xavier"Criss said. "Maybe". The phone rang and Criss answered. "Hello". "Christopher where the are you?". Criss didn't even need to look at the caller ID to see who it was. "Robin I told you yesterday that I had a funeral to go to this morning so we had to reschedule for later on in the day"he stated. Robin went on and on about how she was forced to rehire him by the board of directors. Criss was getting so annoyed he just put the phone down while Robin went on and on. Hammie even hissed at the phone which made Criss and Dimitra chuckle quietly. "I guess Felix isn't the only one who doesn't like Robin"Criss said quietly. "CHRISTOPHER are you still there"she called out. Criss picked up the phone and informed her that he'd be there at noon and hung up.

"Maybe we should set Costa up with her?"Dimitra suggested. "Mom that would be torture for this household and Costa. I"m going to get changed" and Criss went upstairs. As Dimitra cleaned up the door bell rang. Dimitra went to the door and standing there is HOney. "Honey what are you doing here?"she asked. "I was looking through some of my grandmother's stuff and I found an old letter addressed to your friend Danny Springs. I was wondering if you could give it to him"she asked. "How about we go to his house and you can give it to him yourself". "Thanks Dimitra"she remarked. "Christopher I'm going for a walk". "Tell Danny I say hello"he called back as Dimitra closed the door.

When Criss showed up he got a sicken feeling in the pit of his stomach which he only got when something wasn't right. "You all right"Marcus asked walking over. "Yea just got a weird feeling in my stomach I'll see you later"Criss said and went to Robin's office. When he opened the door Criss couldn't believe it there was blood everywhere than he saw Robin in her chair with her throat slashed. "Oh my god"Criss stated. Criss grabbed his phone about to dail 911 when he felt something sharp against his back. "Like my handy work Christopher,". Criss didn't even need to turn around to know it was Xavier. "Make a noise or use that phone I'll stab you so far into your back you'll be either dead or paralyzed"he replied. "I know it was you and Robin that set me up"Criss remarked as Xavier took Criss's phone from his hand.

"And if Honey and her complice didn't start snooping around Robin and I would of gotten away with it. Now you're going to take me to your warehouse or I'll frame you for this murder"he ordered. Back at Danny's house he was outside thinking of the past and the heartache he's had. He was lonely even thou he had Dimitra's friendship but he only saw her when she came to visit Criss and his brothers. Danny went to the palor where pictures were on tables of his friends, his family, his wife, and son; who got drafted but came home in a pine box. He sighed as a knock was heard. "Danny Dimitra a Honey are here to see you" a voice called out. Danny came out to see the lovely ladies standing in the hall way. "Didi Honey what can I do for you?"he asked.

"Well one thing thank you for coming my grandmother's funeral the flowers you brought were her favorite" Honey said. "I thought it be nice to pay my respect to a nice woman who raised her granddaughter when her own daughter didn't want to"he replied. "Do you remember the conversion JD brought up last night at dinner?"Dimitra inquired. "About Honey's grandmother that I may of known her or worked with her when she was younger. Why?". Honey pulled a letter out of her pocket. "I think my grandmom did know you I found this unmailed letter addressed to you" giving it to her. Danny looked at the address on it. "This was my old address back in the day"he said. "Why don't you open it and find out what she wrote"Dimitra suggested. Before he could Honey's phone rang. "Hello Marcus what's up are you serious thanks" and hung up. "Something wrong Honey?". "Is Criss doing something stupid or life threating again?"Danny asked.

"No Marcus was working up stairs when he saw Xavier with Criss and he saw Xavier had a knife to Criss's back"she replied. "Xavier has flipped his wig did they call the police". "For some reason Sam wouldn't let him saying it was nothing he shouldn't start up a panic so Marcus went to talk to Robin about it and found her body her throat was slashed". "Dear god"Dimitra replied. "Why would Xavier kill his wife for?". "HIS WIFE!!!!"Honey and Dimitra remarked in unision.

[RACHEL02189]

"But where would he take him?". "The warehouse to find the jewels"Honey replied. "Dimitra call JD or Costa I don't want you alone just incase Xavier needs more insurance"Danny suggested. "Danny why don't you stay here with Dimitra I'll go after Xavier and Criss". "But you don't know where the warehouse is?"Dimitra replied. Honey took out her phone and saw a blip on her screen. "I decided to put a tracking device on Xavier and Criss's car after finding out what was going on"Honey stated. "Let's go inside for now Dimitra" as Honey went back to her house. When she got back she went upstairs to her room and went to her safe where her gun was. She took it out, made sure they were bullets in it, and put it under her shirt before leaving.

At the warehouse Xavier had duct taped Criss to a chair while Xavier went over a map her had. "Now let's see forty step due north". "How do you even now they're still here Xavier the people who built this place probably found them" Criss said. "SHUT UP!!,"Xavier called out. "I know they're still here I can feel it". This is is loco Criss thought trying to get out of the duct tape. When Honey got to the warehouse she saw Xavier's car in the back. Honey put her gun in the back of her shirt and went in. Inside Xavier was using a sledge hammer on the ground slamming it. "Come on Xavier they are not here"Criss said trying to reason with him. Xavier walked over and put the knife to Criss's throat. "One more word out of you and I'll make sure you die the same way my wife did"he replied. Just looking into Xavier's eyes Criss knew he wasn't kidding.

Back at Danny's house Dimitra was pacing wondering if Criss was all right. "Didi sit down you're making me nervous"Danny remarked. "Sorry I'm just worried about Christopher if he's going to be all right or will Xavier hurt him". Danny went over and gave her a hug. "It's all right Didi," as Danny brought her over to the sofa. "Why don't we open this letter and see what Honey's grandmother work"Danny suggested. "All right". Danny opened the letter and it was a picture and a letter. Dimitra looked at the picture as Danny read the letter which read:

Dear Daniel,

I'm sorry you have to find out this way what I'm going to tell you but I had no choice considering. The reason I left Las Vegas was because I was pregnant and I knew that since you were married and the child was yours I had to leave for fear that your wife would have me killed. I have a girl who I named Connie. I love you Danny so please don't come looking for me and Connie.

Willow

"Wow I can't believe this" as Dimitra showed Danny the picture of a four month old baby girl. "I wonder"Dimitra said. "What?"Danny asked looking at Dimitra. "If this letter's true and Connie is your daughter than Honey might be your granddaughter"Dimitra stated as a smile hit his face. "Granddaughter wow that would be sweet to have a bit of family in my life"Danny suggested.

When Honey got to the warehouse she could hear a jack hammer going. If he's using that on Criss-she thought. Honey went in quietly when she came in she saw Xavier digging through sme of the concrete that he had broking. As Criss watched Xavier out of the corner of his eye he saw Honey but before Criss could say anything Honey told him to be quiet. "YUREKA"Xavier called out. He found a bag but when he opened it there was a note in it that said:

SORRY THERE ARE NO JEWELS IN THIS BAG I GAVE THEM BACK TO THEIR OWNERS

Xavier screamed and threw the bag. "I can't believe it that gave them back. He's going to pay that ". "Don't you dare hurt Spring Xavier he did the right thing by giving those jewels back"Criss stated. Great Criss piss him off more Honey thought. Xavier looked at Criss and took out the knife in his pocket. Honey took her gun out of her pocket. "Why don't I go back to Danny's place, kill him than go to your house and kill your loving mother"he suggested. "You lay on a hand on my mother-"Criss replied trying to break the tape from the chair. Then Xavier put the gun next to Criss's throat. "You know I never liked you Christopher or Felix. I had pay off a lot of people on that board to get Felix fired and to have my wife put on". Honey could tell she had to end this before Criss ended up dead.

"Xavier stop right where you are"Honey called out aiming the gun, but Xavier got behind Criss and put the knife against his throat. "One more step and this angel's blood will be all over the floor. "Give it up Xavier you're not going to get away with it. Just let Criss go and give yourself up"she said trying to get a clear shot of Xavier. "Noway if I can frame this idiot for grand theft I can probably kill both of you and make it look like a murder suicide"he said. "Christopher θραύεται πόδια του καιεμπίπτουν στην πλευρά ( smash his feet and fall to the side)"Honey called out. Criss got up a little and smashed the back of the chair legs onto Xavier's feet. Xavier screamed as he dropped the knife than Criss fell to the side and Honey had good enough shot that she shot him.

After she shot him Honey called 911 and told them what was going on, than ran over to Criss as Xavier just laid there like drift wood. "Nice shot Honey"Criss replied as she took the tape off. "And to believe my grandmother didn't like me having a gun she must be laughing up in heaven right now" she stated helping Criss up.

A few weeks went by and Criss was cleared of all charges and Felix was giving back his old job, but one thing that hadn't change was Criss and Sandra. In his office Criss was looking at the papers getting ready to sign them when a knock came to the door. Criss opened the door and standing there is Honey with a big smile. "Sorry to distruib you I had to tell someone this great news"she remarked as she walked into his office. "What's that" as they sat down. "Well you know how my grandmother had a child and your friend Danny was the father, after finding out a few things about my dead beat mother and some gentic testing it seems I'm Danny Spring's granddaughter"she replied. "Wow congrates Danny must be thrilled when he found out"Criss stated. "He is Danny even asked me to move into his home after I finish dealing with my grandmother's estate so you'll see me around a lot more" she remarked. "I heard Felix offered you Xavier's job"Criss stated. "Yea but I didn't take it I think Marcus has more experience, but Felix did do something since Sam was apart of the con and orginally stole to the necklace to frame you Felix fired him and gave me his job"Honey replied. Criss chuckled. "I guess everything is tied up in a nice package"he said. "Not really you're going to sign those divorce paper". "I don't think Sandra's coming back it's been like two weeks since the chargers were dropped"Criss said.

"Did you try calling her". "Numbers been changed I guess I wasn't meant to fall in love or be happy"Criss said with a sigh. Honey got up and gave Criss a hug. "I'm sorry Christopher if you want to talk give me a call all right". "Thanks Honey you're a great friend". "Are you going to be at Luquidity for drinks?" she inquired. "I'd rather be by myself tonight"Criss replied. "All right but we'll save you a Martini just incase"Honey replied. She gave Criss one more hug and left. After Honey left Criss sat down and signed his name. Strike two and threw the pen onto the desk. Criss sighed and went to get a drink. He was making his drink as a taxi outside pulled away. Criss brought his drink outside and just watch the sun fall. "Christopher"A voice called out. Criss turned and stood up standing there with her luggage is Sandra. Criss dropped his drink and went over to her.

"Christopher I am so sorry for doing what I did to you. I should of believed you than thinking I married a thief can you ever forgive me" she said. "I don't know Sandra you really hurt me when you left and sent divorce papers"Criss stated. "I got scared with everything people were saying that I honestly believed that you did do it Criss I was a fool to believe it but I'll do anything to regian your love"she remarked. "Just seeing you here knows that you do love me" and kissed her.

Back at The Luxor Honey, Danny, Dimitra and the guys were all having drinks. "So how does it feel to finally have someone blood related Danny?"JD inquired. "It feels good to know that I finally have a bit of family with me" giving Honey a hug. "I wonder where Criss is half of this celebration is for him"Danny remarked. Honey was about to say something when Criss and Sandra walked in. "Sorry I'm late I had some stuff to do"Criss remarked. "Sandra nice to see you back how are the folks?"JD inquired. "Honestly JD I didn't go to see my folks I left Las Vegas because I couldn't take what the press was saying about Criss". "So I set her somewhere untill this mess was settled and last night I told her to come back"Criss replied. As the drinks came Dimitra asked to speak to Christopher alone. He gave Sandra a kiss and followed his mother to the production office. "Christopher are you all right now that Sandra back. Considering she nearly divorced you?"she asked.

"We're going to be having a long talk but for right now I'm happy that I'm not going to jail"Criss replied. "What about the divorce papers?". "Threw them in the shredder and they are now confetti which I wqould love to throw"Criss stated as Dimitra gave him a kiss. When they came back Honey asked Danny what happened to the jewels. "There's one things I hate are thieves I may of been apart of some racketting but that's all I stepped in. The guys knew how I felt so they didn't involve me in any thefts but when Shorty gave those jewels from his heist to hold onto. I couldn't keep them so I put them in a box and sent them back to the owners"Danny replied. "Did Shorty ever know you return the jewels". "I guess not he told me to bury them in a certain area so he could pick them up after the cops searched his place, but the next day a friend told me Shorty got whacked"Danny replied. "I wonder what happened to those jewels?"Costa asked.

"You'll love this that necklace Sam put in your dressing room those were the jewels that Xavier and Robin were looking for. It was right under there noses and they didn't have a clue"Honey remarked. Everyone laughed JD even snorted a little which made everyone laugh more. After everyone caught their breath Danny stood up with a Manhattan in his hand. "To Criss Angel may he never see the inside of a jail cell unless for a illusion"he toasted. "And to family newly discovered family members, and to the ones who you thought you lost" Criss toasted giving Sandra a kiss. "Cheers"everyone called out as they drank.
