## Plot

In the city of Bridgetown, there was new rocket launch by Mert Yılmaz, and according to news it had advanced features that decreased time between planets to earth, though this time, it was aimed to go as far to Neptune. Back at the station, Amaya was excited to see the rocket unveiling saying she watched videos of it's construction. So we visit the rocket unveiling side, there was nothing but a body tied to the rocket of a woman who had something written on her head, though probably was gibberish, the victim's name tag read Noura Al-Mukhtar, we send the body for autopsy. When we were getting clues, one seemingly familiar woman appears saying Noura was part of their group who was going to Neptune, she tells her name was Sienna Rousseau, so we interrogate her for the time. According to Sienna, Noura was quite enthusiastic about the journey but from many days her attitude towards them was cold, saying she feels someone is just betraying them. Amaya says that astronauts are quite interesting to say at least. After talking to Sienna, Mert visits us saying he recently he heard about the murder, so he was flagged as a suspect for plausible reasons. We interrogate Mert, he presses his head saying that these murder gives him flashbacks of Hell's Gate's regime, he tells us that all astronauts here especially Noura was very well educated and actually gave his company ideas about advanced technology, he says he is gonna name this rocket after Noura saying she was the woman everyone wished for.

During the results of the body, Jacques tells us that Noura was possibly killed by a blow dart to her heart, and the writing on her head actually meant "I'm sorry" in Runics, though we were puzzled why would someone use that today, though we ask Froy about this, he says that using of Runics is common between people. After talking to Froy, we see some guy saying "Small cock men Rekt", Amaya kind off giggles but we ask the guy who he was, he says his name was Hamad Mukhalif, Kuwait's best man, Amaya looks into his eyes and says "More like tit enthusiast man", we ask Hamad if he knew the victim, he says that who doesn’t saying Noura was the first woman in Kuwait to go to space, and that was quite proud moment for us. After that, we see Manuel and Maurice whispering to each other. Amaya says what the heck are they rambling about, Maurice being the straightforward guy tells "Oh yes, he was telling me how he shagged Alejandra, Amaya giggles and says Manuel is just getting his desires, and he slaps Maurice on his lap, but both burst out with laughter. At the precinct, we were discussing details, Lovisa comes to us saying someone had brown into the rocket and possibly set something so we cannot reach to the killer.

Mid-investigation, Lovisa says someone had broke into the rocket probably trying to sabotage it, so we go the rocket and we see a woman destroying the photo of Noura, we ask her who she was, she tells her name as Tamara Craven, one of the female astronauts. We debrief her why she had been destroying photos of Noura, she coldly replies that she hated Noura because she got more fame than her and calls her "Gun-carrying whore", Amaya gets angry and says that she should be ashamed of this, making a racist comment like that, but Tamara says she doesn’t care saying that the trip to Neptune was gonna be a fail saying they cannot get out due to lack of oxygen, but she says that she had her own problems with Noura. Amaya was suspicious on Tamara though she resisted not to cause any ruckus, Braxton comes to us, Amaya says if he is alright and looking at him, he looked quite well, we asked about Hayden, and Braxton says he is also fine, at the next minute Braxton starts to cry and Amaya asks what happened, Braxton makes a sad face and says "I thought I would never see you guys again, you are everything to me", Amaya's Aww comes out and she embraces Braxton tightly. After that, we continue with our investigation, we hear from the news that Yılmaz Aerospace Co. was being threatened by Cobras Azuis, as it wasn’t enough, later on the same channel, we saw Guillermo Federico giving interview to the reporter in which he mentions us saying he is already kicked out from Cobras Azuis because they have something bigger planned, and he will collaborate with them to reveal about their hidden stories. Amaya says that Guillermo could possibly work for our favour.

As time passes, we figure other clues, and there we saw a familiar name, Brandon Thompson, we ask Brandon what exactly he was doing here, he tells us that he was actually here for a movie shooting saying his recent movie focuses on the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster happened back in 2003, and the rocket was being used by them for the movie for few scenes, he says that he interacted with Noura whose knowledge of astronomy fascinated her at last, and he actually wanted to act more in science fiction movies now. On the TV, there was a broadcast by IASA, who talked about the services of Noura to the world, but we also hear from them that she had involved in some kind of legal case alongside Sienna, so this rose our suspicion on her. We ask Sienna what was the legal case they were talking about, she tells us that their rival company had accused them to have fake degrees of astronomy and wanted to defame the Yılmaz Co. because they made more profit than them, claiming that how can a Turkish company have better profit than American, and they involved Noura into this because she seemed the one who was the leader. After we talk to Sienna, we had no idea who had the urge to kill Noura, saying she was a successful woman and that, we later hear from Lovisa that Hamad wants to tell them about something, so we debrief Hamad, he says that he had took some photos of Noura for the promotion cover on the magazine, but someone has violated the photos and edited into explicit ones and he wants us to figure out who it is. At the precinct, we were discussing details, we get a word from Guillermo that Cobras Azuis was probably involved in the murder.

Mid-investigation, Guillermo tells us that Cobras Azuis might be involved into this as the treasure they wanted possibly to own this place as it might be here, but he says he was invited into the last meeting where they talked about destroying The Americas Police Service, later Floramaria calls us in her office she tells us that Mary Ann is again into case with her husband and he is actually somewhere here, we ask Mary Ann what is he rambling about now, she replies it’s now about her money she earns, though he also mentioned Tamara, saying she provided enough satisfaction, but we don’t interrogate Tamara because she already hated Noura so asking her would be hideous. Amaya sighs and says that this Tamara gives her suspicions. We later find out Noura's journal where he find Brandon's name and it was mentioned that he lied to her, so we ask Brandon about that lie, she was mentioning. He adds that Brandon told the astronaut crew that he was a astronaut too and was going to mission to Neptune with his crew, but she find out that he was a actor, she was very disappointed but Brandon he wanted so bad to explore Neptune, he may have been a astronaut if it wasn’t for his bad eyesight. Amaya relates to it saying it was same but she couldn’t work intense pressure, so she never considered it again. We proceed to find more clues

In the end we had enough evidence to incriminate Tamara Craven for the murder. Upon admitting, she says that Noura deserved to die because without her she finally would be noticed by everyone saying Noura came into her way. She says that she is a highly educated astronaut who had better plans for development of spacecraft, but she was neglected because she lacked agility. She says that she found a way to defame Noura that she was part time prostitute who seduced men, but she provided no evidence to it, so she planned for further saying that she asked one of her people to edit her photos into explicit ones so she could defame her and she would be kicked but, but no one pay heed to it, so therefore she wanted to kill her to remove her from world forever so she could rise, because she was more superior to her calling Noura racial slurs are saying her people carried guns and should be doing that, she further goes to say that Noura was getting so many men for her looks and she wanted the same attention so she decided to hire someone to commit acid attack on her, but the one she hired resented so she decided to kill her herself, so she was quite knowledgeable in poisons too, so she made poisoned dart which would immediately kill her, so earlier today while everyone was getting ready for the unveiling, she decided to finish Noura off, she fought with her and pinned her down, she tied her to the rocket and blew the dart on her heart, and that killed her immediately, she later spat on her saying "Take that bitch, I am superior". She laughs and Amaya slaps her and Tamara faints.

Judge Kingston sentenced her to life imprisonment. After the trial, Amaya was still cross over the fact that Tamara was a racist bitch, as we say that Mary Ann's ex-husband Raymond Smith appears, saying that he wanna talk to Mary Ann but Amaya says "Your hoe's in prison", later Froy takes Raymond away saying that he would give him money and he follows him like a money loving asshole. Mary Ann comes to us saying she heard Raymond is here, we tell her that Froy took him somewhere, there we see both Manuel and Froy saying him "Took out all the money you stole from Mary Ann, or no whore in your bed". Mary Ann observes this from distance and joins in and says "This asshole won’t give money like that", though Raymond was adamant on that, but he lend out some money to escape, he says that he is taking his case back, but he will still not leave them. After that we visit Braxton in the lab, where he, Hayden and Rafael were making something, Braxton places Rafael's face on the device and it suddenly starts to project his life story on the screen, which included the day of his birth, with Ashley Bryant giving him for adoption. Rafael started to cry but Braxton consoled him saying at least he escaped from Los Perros, and now is here. After that Floramaria tells us that this treasure problem is huge, saying she heard that even the police and the army is concerned about this, legend has it that La Cegua's descendants use that treasure to attain world power, so we interrogate Alejandra, but when we go there, we see her and Manuel snogging each other, Amaya stops them but Manuel tells that they are a couple now, and Froy captures that entire moment of them snogging. We debrief Alejandra about the treasure case, she says she has no idea who is behind that, saying someone is using her identity as La Cegua and goes behind the treasure which allegedly gives you power.

This news of concern makes us tell Floramaria who debunks that as a theory saying if it gave someone powers than World would have been a better place. Though, we bring this news to the fellow members and Lovisa says "It's not world of lies", though Guillermo becomes paranoid and says it’s concerning, we ask for explanation what really is concerning about that. He tells us that according to history, back in 1846, a plague had affected most of the areas in South America, and that time history mentions that there has been sightings of some Cobra creature with that treasure and the plague increased whenever it was there, however one day both the creature and treasure disappeared and the same day the plague vanished without any trace, we got chills after listening to this, but we ask Guillermo if he had any historical evidence to back this up and he shows us a book where it actually mentioned it. Amaya gets a little scared saying if it's true than we are the next victims of this treasure, but now start to doubt if Cobras Azuis was any real. After we talk to Guillermo, Mary Ann tells us that Raymond took his case back and even returned the money he illegally took from her, we were more glad but Amaya was quite disturbed from what Guillermo said. Manuel says Guillermo might be just playing a prank on us or be joking around but his tone when saying that wasn’t something we would call a prank, though he was visibly uncomfortable. In order to overcome that, Manuel makes us listen to his song and then Braxton then shows Manuel's life story, but one scene made our jaw drop, we see that Amalia, Manuel's older sister was taken away by some Cobra creature and something like a treasure also appeared on that, now we all were visibly confused and scared, trying to digest what we saw. Furthermore, we see that in Jamaica, a plague was surfacing like that in 1846, and we were now more concerned, but we head to Jamaica to find whatever the truth was.
