Bringing The House Down
Chapter 1
Prologue
AN: I've been working on this idea for long time, I don't know how it's going to go, but I do know Pen and Derek will be together when it's over. Hope you enjoy.
Derek Morgan was sitting in his bosses office, he wasn't sure what was up, the week before he'd been told he was getting a week of vacation that he had no choice of taking, now he was waiting for his boss, and one his closest friends to see what the hell was going on.
He'd spent the week with his mom, sisters, and his best friend Nick Wells. Nick didn't even know what was going down, but he was sitting beside him as well, because he'd gotten the same orders. Nick was half asleep, he'd been out the night before with who know what girl at the bars, but it was the first night in months, since he had a six year old daughter Jake. The doctor had said it was supposed to be a boy that Nick's ex-girlfriend was having. She'd dropped their daughter off on his door step a week after she was born and split for California or Texas not wanting their daughter.
"Nick, you should have stayed home last night," Derek teased.
"I know, but Cayla wanted to go out, and Rick and her were fighting again, I ended up having like two beers and listening to her whine half the night, I didn't even get some girl in the bathroom for sex," he groaned before their captain walked in.
"Wells, Morgan," the man said with a smile looking at them, "You two should waited till you were sober," he joked.
"I am not hung over, I spent all night listening to your sister complain again about her husband," Nick said.
"I was sleeping," Derek said.
"Yeah with another hot girl probably," Jack teased him.
"Yeah after a smoking hot night I was sleeping," Derek said with smile, "What did you need to see us about?" he asked.
"Last month you two said that you wanted something to do, since we've had it slow around here," Jack said.
"Yeah, what you got for us?" Nick asked sitting up straight.
"It will require some undercover work, being away from Cayla," Jack said looking at Nick, "Four months to a year," he said.
"A year?" Derek asked, "Damn must be somebody big," he said.
"One the biggest bomb makers in Illinois just moved down here to Chicago," Jack said, "He doesn't just make bombs either, he's got a large drug operation as well," he replied, "You two worked in narcotics for what four months before transferring here after your beat cop days?" he asked.
"We worked there for six months after we transferred out the station," Nick said, "Derek was there for four months, but I worked six," he corrected.
"Then we applied here, you know that Jack," Derek said.
"Just had to make sure you did have narcotics training because I need you both on this," Jack said, "You're my senior officers here, been here for longer than those newbie's and they would blow this," he said.
"I'd have to talk to Fran see if she could take care of Cayla for me," Nick said, "But if it means getting that scum bag we've been after for a year now, then I'll do it," he said.
"Good, I will have to call the local detective to get all the information he called me yesterday, asked me to spare couple guys," Jack said, "I'll call him up and set up you two to meet him, but it's gotta be at bar, he's under at the moment and is trying to get some help, he thinks his cover was blown," he said.
"Okay, sounds good to me," Derek said before they stood up, "Just call us later," he said. Nick shook his hand after Derek before they left their Captain's office.

"A year, Derek Morgan," Fran said, "You can't just go away for a year, Desiree needs you right now," she said.
"Do you think I'd do this if they had another guy, Nick can't go in alone," Derek said, "You know that I wouldn't do this on purpose," he said, "I'm not even supposed to tell you, but I can't just leave you wondering," he replied.
"What about Cayla, she needs Nick," Fran asked.
"I was hoping you'd watch her?" Nick asked, "This guy has been controlling the people in Illinois and you have seen the reports," he said.
"I don't want my sons getting hurt, I've raised you both," she said.
"Mom, I know you did, and you took care of me," Nick said, "You could let social services stick me in a home, but you adopted me as your own after my dad died," he said.
Derek didn't say anything, growing up in a house full of women, and only Nick there with him, it had been hard, but they had dealt with it all from having two pissed off women, and Desiree upset about something too, leaving them to figure it out and when Cayla had been left with them, Fran hadn't told Nick to get out, they'd found a larger home and moved in it.
"I just don't want to lose my boys," Fran said, "When do you have to go?" she asked.
"We don't know yet, but if anybody asks you where we are at, Des, Sarah, anybody you cannot tell them mom, it puts them in danger," Nick said.
"Put's you all in danger," Derek said.
"You have to tell your sisters something," Fran said.
"We will, just not sure what yet," Nick said before he gave the only mom he'd known a hug, "We'll be safe," he said.
"Tonight too," Derek said before he hugged his mom, "When we get the assignment we'll come back before we have to leave," he said.
"I love you two, I just don't want either one of you two to die," Fran said.
"Promise mom," Nick said before they left, he'd have to talk to his daughter later after she got home from school.

Derek was dressed in his red button down shirt with his leather jacket over that, black jeans and his combat boots. Nick was dressed in all black, with pair boots on like Derek's. They both had a gun concealed some where on their person, the bar they were in, you'd be stupid if you showed up unarmed, even though it said no weapons.
Chicago's high powered hung out here, drug dealers, along with few under cover cops, or the ones that just wanted to buy and sale. The back of the bar healed all the sales, drugs, illegal weapons, and people got high back there as well. It wasn't their usual scene, they went for, partying with drug dealers and stuff wasn't their type of fun.
"Jack said he'd be in the back," Nick said nodding towards the curtain that separated part of the bar from the other.
"Come on," Derek said walking straight back to the curtain.
"You can't go back there," a man said.
"We're looking for Shady," Nick said, "He told us to come here," he replied showing the man what they'd been given that would get them in.
"Sorry, I didn't know go right ahead, but next time, us the back door," the man said before letting them pass.
"Here goes nothing," Nick said before he walked up to the man they were meeting.
"Derek, Nick," the guy said motioning them over to where he was. They were using their first names, but they had different last names, and they hoped that when checked out it worked.
"Hi, so you said you had something worth our while," Derek said playing along.
"Yes I do boys, names Shady, and after tonight you won't be buying from anybody else," Shady said.
Nick smiled before sitting down, "Okay, show us what you got," he said.
Two hours later Nick and Derek were leaving, they had been talking to Shady or Detective Rays he'd been telling them about the drugs he wanted to sell weapons too, but it was also a way to get them in, they said they wanted to work for his boss, help them out, and Shady said he'd get them in.
Nick went out to the truck opening the door finding a package on the seat, "It's what he said he'd give us," Derek said, "We get back to the house we'll look it over," he said before getting in the truck.

"If we go in, it's going to be hell if we want out," Derek said looking over what they had, "They run more than drugs and bombs," he said, "Prostitution rings, illegal weapons, we go in we gotta watch each other's back," he replied.
"Derek, to bust them, it is going to be hard, but to have these guys out the business it would be worth it," Nick said.
"Okay, I'm in if you are," Derek said.
"You know I'm in," Nick said, "I'm not letting my little brother go in alone," he said before opening the last page of the information they had, "We're going to bring them down from the inside out, and let these women go free, get the drugs off the streets and the guns," Nick replied.
"Here's a page on all the women, I don't know how they could do this," Derek said.
"All but one, the last one, she's sorta the head guy's on personal girl, but it's not what we think," Nick said, "Shady says here that she was kidnapped few months back, they got her locked up in a cabin on their property, she's brought them nothing but trouble."
"We get her out there first," Derek said, "Then we start on the rest," her said.
"Derek, don't go trying to save somebody and get us found out," Nick said.
"She can't be older than twenty, maybe younger," Derek said.
"Twenty, try nineteen," Nick said, "Here's her bio, damn she's pretty," he said handing Derek the paper and picture on the girl.
"Penelope Garcia, mom and step-dad killed when she was eighteen. She disappeared turned up here, where she was kidnapped and now is the leader's personal girl, and the welcoming girl, whatever that means," Derek said.
"The girl that all the new comers can have sex with," Nick said, "If they want her they get her for the night, which is fucked up," he said, "Poor kid probably is raped a lot too, wonder she's not pregnant yet," he replied.
"I don't want think about that, it's sick enough to know that bastard kidnapped her and makes her sleep with all those guys, and himself," Derek said, "We'll work on something to find her, get her out there," he said before they read over more of the paper work.

AN: Hope you liked the start of this, I sorta know where I'm going with this, but it's mostly winging it.
