LEVI THE WONDER DOG! LEVI THE WONDER DOG!
Demetrius walked into the bullpen, yawning.
"Late night, Mate?" Bobby asked from his desk, with a smirk.
"Yeah." Demetrius replied, as he sank into his desk chair. "Tonya kept me awake most of the night."
"Something wrong?" Jack asked in concern. The unit was extremely close and they all adored Demetrius's two kids. Ten-year-old Davy and four-year-old Tonya.
"Some kid at daycare told her that monsters lived in closets." Demetrius explained. "She believed him and was scared to sleep in her own room. So she slept with Donna and me, but still had nightmares."
"Give me the kid's address." Bobby said. "I can't beat up a four-year-old, but I can sock his Dad in the nose."
"Heads up, boys and girls." Ted said, entering the room and stopping the conversation. "We have a possible case."
"What is it?" Jack asked, as everyone focused their attention on Ted.
"We received an anonymous tip that a major gun buy was going down in two hours. According to the tip, Randal Cushman is the seller. And a small anti-government group called Rebel Forces is the buyer."
"Who is Randal Cushman?" Sue asked, she had noticed the other's eyes when Ted mentioned that name. They seemed to know the man.
Tara, who was standing beside Sue, tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention.
"Randal Cushman is an arms dealer who will sell guns to anyone with money. He's suspected in selling weapons to several terrorist groups." Tara explained. "Rebel Forces is small, but is gaining members. So far they have only staged protests and rallies denouncing the American Government."
"But if they are planning on buying guns from Cushman, then they may have bigger plans in motion." Miles said.
"You said the tipster didn't leave a name." Jack said. "How do you know he's telling the truth?"
"These came along with the tip." Ted said, handing out a dozen photos. They were all of guns, explosives, and other weapons.
"Blamey." Bobby said. "A bloke can start their own war with these."
"Where's the meet going down?" Demetrius asked.
"An abandoned warehouse on Division Street." Ted answered. "Everyone look sharp out there, this could be a trap."
"let's head out." Jack said, then he started giving everyone their assignments. Within ten minutes, the unit was in route to the warehouse.
LEVI THE WONDER DOG! LEVI THE WONDER DOG!
Less then two hours later, Tara and sue were in the surveillance van. Demetrius was walking Levi across the street from the warehouse, Jack was pretending to pick up trash a few feet from the entrance to the warehouse, Miles was selling hotdogs a few yards away, and Bobby was eating a hotdog in front of the hotdog cart.
It had just started snowing again, adding to the three feet of snow already on the ground. The brisk north wind made the air feel even colder then the actual temperature.
"According to thermal imaging." Tara said into the microphone. "We have three subjects inside."
"That would be Cushman and his goons." Jack said.
"So, ladies." Miles said. "How's the nice heated van feeling?"
"So nice and toasty." Tara replied. She signed to Sue what he asked.
"It's almost too warm in here." Sue said, with a smile. "I think I'm starting to sweat a little."
"Next time, I get the van." Bobby said. "I can't feel my toes anymore."
"Heads up." Miles said. "A dark van with no back windows just passed us."
"I see it." Jack said. "Tara, got the plates?"
"Sending them to Lucy now." Tara replied.
Everyone watched as the van stopped in front of the warehouse and two men got out of the front. Then they watched in shock and dismay as a young girl climbed out of the back.
"What's with the kid?" Bobby asked. "Is this take your daughter to work day?"
"She can't be over twelve." Jack said.
She was a little short for her age and had short brown hair. She was only wearing sneakers, blue jeans, and a long sleeved tee shirt.
"And she's not wearing a coat." Tara said. "What kind of monster has a young kid out there with no coat on? Both of the so called men are wearing coats and gloves."
The two men and girl walked past Jack. He got a good look at her, and felt his gut wrench at the site.
"I doubt she's here of her own free will." Jack said. "She's got a black eye and a large bruise on her cheek."
"What's the play, Mate?" Bobby asked.
"If we go in, the kid might get hurt." Demetrius said. "But if we don't, then Cushman gets away, and an anti government group gets the weapons."
"We have no choice." Jack said, hoping and praying he was making the right choice. "We have to go in."
Demetrius put Levi back in the van, then the four agents rushed to the front of the warehouse. Jack peered through the boards that were nailed across one of the windows.
"I see the girl." He said. "She's standing a few feet from them, close to the door. All five men are in the middle of the warehouse. We go in hot, I will cover the kid."
The others nodded in agreement, then got ready.
Jack nodded, then they burst in.
"F.B.I!" Demetrius shouted, as they aimed their guns at the men.
As soon as he entered the building, Jack rushed towards the young girl and grabbed her. Then he threw her to the ground and covered her with his own body as a burst of gunfire erupted. They were too far from anything to use as cover.
"Clear!" Demetrius shouted, a few moments after the gunfire stopped.
Jack stood up and gently pulled the girl to her feet.
Jack quickly surveyed the room, thanking God that all of his men were okay. One of Cushman's men was laying in the floor clutching his left shoulder, which had been shot. And one of the Rebel Forces members was laying in the floor, dead.
"Tara." Demetrius said. "We need an ambulance, one of the subjects is shot. One is dead."
Jack turned back to the girl, as the other agents were handcuffing the remaining subjects. He was very surprised to find a gun pointing at his chest.
"Let him go." The girl said, nodding towards the remaining Rebel Forces member. "Or I shoot."
"It's about time you did something useful, Chris." The man said, as he started to take a step forward. "I guess that little encouragement I gave you this morning paid off."
"You ain't going anywhere but prison, mate." Bobby said, grabbing his arm.
"Back off." The girl said, still aiming the gun at Jack. "Let him walk out of here, or you lose a teammate."
"Don't let him go." Jack said, looking into the young girl's eyes. He could see the fear in them, but he could also see determination.
"You don't want to do this, kid." Jack said softly. "He isn't worth it."
"I know he isn't." The girl said. "But Zoe is."
"Who's Zoe?" Jack asked, as he took a step towards her.
"Just shoot him, Chris." The Rebel forces member said. "Quite being a wimp and pull the trigger."
"Shut up, you filthy drongo." Bobby said, tightening his grip on the man's arm.
"We will help you, and Zoe." Jack said, taking another step towards her. "Give me the gun, and tell me what's going on."
Chris looked into the man's eyes and saw compassion there. She knew she could never pull the trigger, she wasn't a murderer. Slowly, she handed the gun to Jack.
"Thank you." Jack said.
Chris sighed, terrified of what was going to happen now. She was told that morning what failure on her part meant.
"I just signed Zoe's death warrant." She said, just above a whisper.
"Chris." Jack said, gently. "Who is Zoe?"
The young girl looked around and saw that the other agents were leading the bad guys away. There were only two agents and her in the building. She knew she had to act fast. Chris had been there when the warehouse was chosen for a buy spot, she knew of alternant exits.
"I want to help you, but I can't if you don't tell me what's going on." Jack said.
Chris acted like she stumbled, and Jack reached out to steady her. When he did, the young girl pulled a stun gun out of the pocket of her jeans and pressed it to the agent's neck.
Jack yelled out in surprise and in pain, then fell to his knees. Then fell all the way to the concrete floor.
"I'm sorry." Chris said, as she took off running towards the back of the building.
"Jack!" Miles yelled. He was standing beside the crates of weapons, starting to catalog them, when he saw Jack go down and the girl run.
"Agent down!" Miles said, "Possible stun gun. The girl is rabbiting." Then he ran after her.
Chris ran to the back of the building where a set of stairs were, then ran up the stairs. Half way up, she climbed out of an opened window out onto the fire escape. Miles was right behind her. Chris ran down the fire escape and jumped the last couple feet to the ground. She started to run down the alley, when Miles jumped right in front of her.
"That was not a very smart thing to do." He said.
The girl aimed a kick to his groin, but he saw it coming and stepped back. Then he grabbed the girl's arm and pulled her towards him, quickly cuffing her wrists behind her back.
"You are now under arrest for assaulting a federal agent." Miles said, as released her and pulled off his coat. Then he wrapped the coat around the girl's thin shoulders. The kind gesture surprised the young girl.
"Thank you." She said, the coat was warm and comfortable.
"Let's go." Miles said, as he placed a hand on her back and guided her out of the alley and back to the front of the building.
Jack was sitting on the hood of a car, holding an ice pack to the side of his neck.
"Now we've got another reason to call you Sparky, Sparky." Bobby said.
Jack glared at his long time friend, but did not commit.
Miles led the girl over and stood in front of Jack.
"Let's try this again." Jack said, looking at the girl. "Who is Zoe?"
Chris was surprised that the man didn't seem mad at her. She figured he'd be extremely angry.
"Look, whoever Zoe is, you can not help her while in custody." Jack said.
"Then let me go." Chris replied.
"We can't do that." Jack said. "But we can help you, if you let us."
"I want a lawyer." She said.
She wanted to trust him, but past experiences had taught her to be weary of adults. Even ones that appear to be nice. She would just have to find another way to escape. And hope that Zoe was okay.
"Tara." Jack sighed. "Frisk her, please."
"Turn around and spread your legs, Honey." Tara said, walking over to the girl. "Do you have any sharp objects in your pockets?"
"No." Chris said.
Tara quickly frisked the girl, removing a half pack of cigarettes and a lighter.
"Those things are bad for your health." Demetrius said.
"So's living." She replied.
"She's clean." Tara said.
"Let's head back." Jack said.
"Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?" Sue asked in concern.
"I'm fine." Jack assured her. "It's not the first time a stun gun was used on me."
"Probably won't be the last." Bobby said, as he offered the man a hand off of the hood. "Huh, Sparky?"
"Keep it up, Crash." Jack mumbled. "And I will shoot you with the stun gun."
