Hondo and Dom sat in the car.

"Does anyone have eyes on the suspect"? asked Hondo.

At that moment in time, Deacon saw the suspect through his binoculars, from the rooftop opposite from where Hondo was parked. "I've got her. Street, she's heading in your direction".

Street waited further down the street. A few minutes later, Deacon joined him. "Got her". He looked again in his binoculars. She was wearing a classy fitted black dress and high heels. "Wait that's our suspect? Why do they always need to look so hot"?

Deacon looked at him and smiled, as Hondo and Dom did the same in the car.

"Sexy or not", said Hondo, "She's one of the top drug distributors in the city. Chris talk to me".

"She just walked into the warehouse; the seller is already there".

"Alright, everyone in position, we only go in when the transaction is complete".

Hondo and Dom got out of the car and headed towards the warehouse. Jim, Deacon and Victor joined them.

"Mr. Schmit, thank you for coming. Do you have the merchandise"?

The man showed a few piles of carton boxes.

Raven Hart walked over to the boxes, she grabbed a cutter and cut open the taped top of the box. She pulled out a huge plastic bag with plenty of yellow pills.

"There's 75,000, just as planned. Where's the money"?

Raven showed him a duffle bag in the corner of the room. His guy walked over and brought it back. Schmit unzipped it and looked inside.

"What is this, some kind of joke? We agreed to one million".

He pulled his gun out. "That's only 500,000 dollars".

"Chris"?

"Still ongoing Hondo but things are heating up. The seller is getting antsy. All the cash isn't there".

Hondo looked at Dom. "What do you mean"?

"Let's just say a gun's involved".

Hondo frowned. "We need these two alive".

Deacon looked at Hondo. "What do you want to do"? He watched as Hondo thought.

"We wait. Chris, if things escalate, take him down".

"Mr. Schmit, I run the biggest distribution network in the city. What my dealers sell me, is distributed all throughout LA's clubs. You're new here. I don't know you. I don't know how good your merchandise is. It sells, you get the rest in a week".

Schmit armed his gun.

Raven didn't flinch. "You came to me for business, not the other way around. You want to do business, you do it my way or you take your boxes, your guy and you try to find another competent distributor. Good luck in finding one".

She cocked her head to the side, maintaining a firm stare on him.

He disarmed his gun and put it away. "You play hardball, Miss Hart. I like that".

He took the duffle bag and put his hand out. "It's a pleasure doing business with you Miss Hart. We'll be in touch".

Raven shook it. "The pleasure is all mine, Mr Schmit".

Hondo looked at the team. "Let's go"!

They opened the door and walked into the warehouse, rifles in hand.

"Metro SWAT"! said Hondo.

Schmit and Hart stopped dead in their tracks.

"On the floor"!

Raven tried to escape but found herself face to face with Deacon.

"Where do you think you're going"?

He grabbed her forcefully and pinned her down harshly to the ground, as Dom and Hondo took care of Schmit and his guy. Deacon bent over her, grabbed her hands and cuffed her with a cable tie. He then lifted her up, holding her by the arm.

She looked at him. "You smell good".

"Shut your mouth".

"Victor put these two in the patrol car outside. Deacon and Street take Miss Hart to the SWAT truck, nothing would please me more than to bring her in ourselves. We'll be out shortly with the cash and the drugs".

Deacon pushed Raven out of the warehouse and towards the truck and placed her against it, standing in front of her.

"You know", Raven said as she looked at Deacon, "you really are my type of man".

"Is that so"?

"Yeah, extremely handsome, strong, sexy. I'm sure we'd have a great time together".

Deacon moved in closer to her. "What did you have in mind"?

Jim blinked a couple of times but said nothing.

Deacon gave a quick glance towards the warehouse door.

"Take me somewhere a bit more private and I'll show you".

Jim watched as Deacon took out his cable tie cutter and leaned towards her to sever them.

"Deacon, man! What are you doing"?

"You said it yourself Street, she's hot. Why pass up an opportunity like this one? Bang on the truck when Hondo comes out".

"Have you freaking lost your mind"? yelled Jim, his eyes wide open as Deacon pushed Raven towards the truck's open back doors.

"Just watch the door".

Jim frantically passed a hand in his hair and watched helplessly as Deacon helped her in and closed the doors behind him.

Five minutes later, the warehouse door opened with Chris, Dom and Hondo. Jim's eyes grew wide open. He discreetly knocked a few times on the side of the truck.

"Where's Deacon"? asked Hondo.

Jim fidgeted. "He's putting the suspect in the truck. He should be out any second now".

"Alright. Well, there's no point in waiting. Let's put Miss Hart behind bars".

Hondo headed towards the door.

"You alright Street? You seem nervous".

"No, I'm good boss. I'll open the doors".

"Is there something I should know"?

"Nope".

Jim winced and his heartbeat accelerated as Hondo opened the doors.

The doors opened to reveal Deacon and Raven Hart sitting next to each other, talking. Deacon's arm around her.

Deacon turned around and looked at Street. "What the hell is going on"?

Jim panicked, unable to utter a word.

Hondo and the others started laughing, including Raven Hart.

He stared at them puzzle.

"Relax", said Hondo as he lifted Raven out of the van and set her down. "Jim Street, I'd like you to meet Narc Detective Emmaline Luca".

"Luca"? asked Jim.

Dom took his sister in an embrace. "My sister".

Jim punched Deacon in the shoulder. "You son of a bitch"!

"Take it easy sport", said Emma. "They do this every time there's a new SWAT member. Classic hazing"! She put her hand out. "No hard feelings"?

Jim shook it and smiled. "Nah. It's a pleasure to meet you". He then looked at Dom. "Hey, man, I didn't mean any disrespect earlier when I said she was hot".

Dom laughed. "It's cool, Street. I won't kill you just yet".

Hondo took Emma to the side.

"What the hell happened in there"?

Emma's face tightened. "I have no idea but someone's going to have to give me answers. I was supposed to have all the cash".

"Kwan didn't advise you"?

"No, but a heads up would have been nice".

"Chris had your back, no matter what".

Emma looked at Chris and gave her a grateful nod.

Hondo put his arm around her and pulled her in a brotherly hug. "You did good Emma. You always do. One less dealer out on the streets".

"Alright everyone, lets head back to headquarters".

Dom hugged Emma and kissed her forehead. "See you back at headquarters".

Jim looked on as Hondo, Dom and Deacon headed to the car. "Why isn't Dom riding back with his sister"?

"It's against protocol as to not interfere with the investigation. Protocol is that only three of us escort her back. She debriefs and then we all go out for beers"!

Chris sat in the back with Emma and they all returned to Headquarters.
