Summary
“I need your help,” he says.
“Do you now?”
Alex takes a deep breath. “Yes, please. And I’ll give you want ever you want in return.”
Gregorovich stares at him for a long moment, looking him over, and it makes Alex feel transparent. Too seen, too examined.
*

Summary
This is a dream. It must be.
It has to be.
But it feels too real, too perfect.
His eyes are open. He can see, he can read, he can feel.
It's impossible. But it’s real.
Alex looks back at his phone, at the date that’s burned into his brain as one of the worst in his life.
The day Ian died.
*
Alex gets a second chance.

Summary
The room is dim, but not dark, and Yassen has no trouble recognising his cellmate.
“Hello, Alex,” he says.
Alex Rider looks up at him, his arms wrapped around his knees. He seems small, vulnerable almost. To anyone who didn’t know better.

Post series and the collapse of Scorpia, Yassen and Alex (involuntarily) cross paths and have a chat.

Summary
Yassen’s stomach relocates itself to somewhere near his feet.
Oh no, he thinks. Surely not.
“What’s his name?” Yassen hopes his voice comes out steady.
“Friend.” Fowler says. “David is the father, and I believe the boy’s name is, oh, what was it?”
Another guard – not the one with the black eye and busted lip, but who, to Yassen’s trained eye, is holding himself rather stiffly – clears his throat.
“It’s Alexander, I’m pretty sure,” the man says.
“Yes, that was it,” Fowler agrees. “Alexander Friend."
