"Let me go with you. I can help you. I can figure out different equations on our way, take down all the notes I need and it will go faster."

"Charlie, I'm not going to take you on a chase in the mountains. Were chasing this Daniel Carr guy, a man who has killed 21 people," Don answered his little brother.

"Don. Lets be reasonable here. If I go, then we can track him much faster then if it were just you, Meghan, Colby, and David," Charlie explained to Don, as both the Eppes sat at the dining room table of their childhood home.

"The answer is no Charlie. I know that you don't usually get the concept of no, but that's my final answer," Don firmly stated. Charlie groaned and flew his curly head back in frustration.

"Remember last time we went through the mountains? When we were tracking that McHugh guy? Was I useful then?" Charlie asked his brother.

"It's not a matter of you being useful or not, it's the matter that your a math professor, not an FBI agent," Don argued. Before Charlie could argue back, there was a knock on the door. Don rose from his chair and answered the door. Meghan, David, and Colby stood on the outside.

"You ready to go?" David asked.

"Yeah I'm ready," Don replied, showing the three agents into the house.

"Don we got a problem though," Meghan said.

"What?" Don asked, almost afraid to know.

"We have an entire chart here with information that could make it easier and faster to find Daniel Carr. How are we going to figure this out? It's all this statistical information. I mean I can decipher some of it, but most of it is looking like Charlie language," Meghan explained. "The only problem is we have to leave now."

Don looked across the room Charlie, who was looking up at him expectantly. He sighed and ran his hand through his dark hair. "All right Charlie, go pack a few pairs a clothes and lets go."

A smile spread across Charlie's face as he got up from the table. "You won't regret this Don, you really won't," he blurted out in excitement.

"All right, quit hailing your praises to me and go get packed," Don shooed his litter brother away from him. "And don't pack to much stuff, we all have to fit in my SUV!" Don called up the stairs.

"I won't," Charlie answered from his room.

"And don't bring any of those damn math text books either, they take up to much space."

"I won't."

"And no hair gel either! Every time we go away you bring like 12 bottles. Were not going to look pretty were going to find a killer."

"I know Don!" Charlie called from upstairs.

"Geez Don, why don't you just tell him to bring a toothbrush and lets go," Colby snorted.

"Yeah well, it usually isn't pretty when we go away. I swear I think he brings the entire solarium with him," Don answered Colby's joke.

"Ready!" Charlie proclaimed as he jumped down the last two stairs, a duffle bag in hand.

"All right, lets go. Daniel Carr here we come," Don said as he put on his sunglasses, and shut the door to the Eppes home.

PLEASE R&R! thanks so much!
