Jax was pissed. He had to many thing going on to be dealing with this bullshit. Agent Martin hadn't shown his face in 5 years and he promised not to. So there had to be something wrong.
"Mrs. Teller. Your looking well" Jax kept his eyes on Martin as he addressed his wife. He didn't trust him not even after everything agent Martin did to help get Kallie and Thomas back. The Feds were the reason they were missing in the first place.
"Thanks" She said politely "But why are you here?" She asked him. Jax could see her hold Kallie a little tightly in her arms. He understood her protectiveness, agent Martin brought up some painful memories for them both.
"I need your help." He explained as he looked at Jax.
"Our help?" Jax raised his eye brow. "with what?" Martin looked at Tara then back at Jax.
"Could we talk in private. This doesn't really concern your wife"
"If it concerns my husband than it concerns me" Tara spoke up sounding angrier. Jax knew she hated being spoken to like she wasn't important. She worked hard to gain the respect of everyone and she hated when people thought they didn't need to respect her.
Jax sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose "what's going in agent Martin?"
"Can we Atleast go inside?" Martin asked. Jax nodded and watched as he went inside. He turned to Tara.
"I knew something was up Jax ive been feeling it all damn day" She walked over to Maddy and handed her Kallie. "Watch my kids Maddy please" Tara all but snapped. Jax shook his head. His girl could do many things but keeping a poker was not one of them. Jax walked into the clubhouse with her right behind him. They sat next to eachother in front of Agent Martin and looked at him expectantly. The guys were around but keeping a distance. They all had that same 'What is he doing here look' on their faces.
"What's going on?" Jax asked.
"You remember Aaron?" He asked them.
"Aaron the bain of my existence? Yeah we remember" Tara snapped.
Jax growled in frustration. He hated when she got like this "Tara! Calm the fuck down" he stood up "Give us a minute" he told Martin before he grabbed Tara by the arm and moved her to his dorm room. She yanked her arm out of his hold when they got inside. "What the hell is going on with you?"
"What's going on with me? Are fucking kidding me?" She ran her hands down her face. A clear sign that they've been together for a while.
"If he had information for us then we should hear it Tara, Without you jumping down his god damn throat every time he mentions something you don't like" He practically yelled at her.
Tara deflated and sat at the edge of the bed. "I'm sorry. He just brings back bad memories."
Jax bent down in front of her "I know baby but he's here to give us some information we need to listen it might help us. What ever is coming it's best if we know about it now rather than have to deal with the shit storm later."
She nodded "I know I'm sorry. I just freaked out"
He stood up and took her hand "Come here" he wrapped his arms around her when she stood up and she laid her head on his chest as he spoke to her. "I'm not going to let anything happen to you or the kids but It's time to bring everything into the light now baby. This proves that. Time to make our move."
"I just don't want to loose you while your our protecting us" she whispered.
"Hey" he lifted her chin so he could look at her "Your not going to loose me. I'm not going any where" he kissed her.
"Ok." She kissed him and then pulled away "I have the safe house ready. It's going to be crazy for a while so it's stocked and ready for all of us. The girls have bags pack and ready just in case and so do we"
"Good" He nodded and walked over to the door. "Ready?"
She shook her head "No but I have to be" They walked back out hand in hand. Agent Martin was sipping on a beer. "Making yourself comfortable?" She asked him.
"Can't really do that when you have almost 20 bikers staring you down" he chuckled.
"Yeah well. Friend or foe your still a fed and they don't really like Feds" Jax laughed and sat down in front of him. "What is it that you needed to tell us? Or help you with?"
"Aaron is back in town. We believe he's out for blood this time. He made friends with a rival biker crew 5 years back"
"What does that have to do with us?" Jax asks.
"Well, he moved up in said crew and is now the Vice President, much like you are" Martin said as he took a sip of his beer.
Jax leaned up and put his elbows on the table clasping his hands together "How do you know all this?"
"I have an informant" he shrugged.
"Can you stop with the cryptic talk and just tell us what the hell's going on?" Tara nearly shouted. This time Jax didn't tell her to be quiet. He just crossed his arms and sat back in his chair.
"He's trying to convince his president that coming after the sons of anarchy would be the best way to get into the gun business"
"Jesus Christ!" Jax slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "He's trying to eliminate the competition"
Martin nodded "That's not all though" he took a deep breath "He's told the president and everyone else that Tara and your kids are his family and you've taken them from him"
"Son of a bitch" Jax seethed he looked over at Tara "Get Kallie and Abel bring them inside. I don't want them out of our sight" Tara nodded and stood up shaking her head and pinching the bridge of her nose. She found her kids playing with their uncle Thomas, she smiled at the sight and walked over to them as Thomas was pushing them on the swings.
"Hey guys" Tara greeted.
"Hey sis" Thomas smiled at her. Thomas had really grown into his own man. He was 17 now lean but built just like his brother was at that age, he had opted out of the long hair and instead wore it short and cropped. He was definatly a ladies man but wasn't the man whore his brother once was. He had been dating the same girl for a couple of months now and Tara suspected things were getting pretty serious. While Jax knew he would be prospecting when he turned 18, Thomas was still unsure what he wanted to do with his life. Although everyone seemed pretty sure he would go to school and pursue a career in something else other than being an outlaw. He wasn't the type to be a biker, like the rest of his family. He did have a bike though, Teller blood was strong, and their love for bikes was just as strong. Abel had already expressed wanting to have one like his daddy, Tara was planning to get him a small one for his birthday. "What's going on?" Thomas asked her. He could see the somber expression on her face.
"I gotta get the kids inside." She told him with out explaining. He cocked his head to the side and she looked at him seriously. He nodded. What ever it was, he knew now was not the time to ask questions. Tara stopped both swings and smiled at her kids. "Come on babies. Let's go inside with Daddy and get you some ice cream" Both kids smiled and jumped off the swing. She picked up Abel while Thomas swung Kallie into his arms and on to his shoulders.
When Tara walked back inside Jax was still talking to Agent Martin. They looked deep in conversation. Tara sat Abel down at the bar.
"Daddy look at me" Kallie yelled as she beat on Thomas's head like a drum. Jaxs head snapped up and smiled at her.
"I see you baby" he nodded toward agent Martin and stood up walking to his brother and opening his arms. Kallie stood up and jumped into them laughing hysterically. he held her tightly and she wrapped her little arms around his neck. Tara watched the two with a small smile on her face. Kallie snuggled into him laying her head on his shoulder.
"I love you daddy" Kallie says as if sensing that whats her father needed to hear. Jax closes his eyes and smiles "I love you baby more than anything"
"What about me daddy?" Abel asks. Jax turns to him and picks him "You and your sister are the most important thing to me. I love you both so much" he kissed both their heads.
"What about mommy?" Kallie asks and reaches for Tara. She smiles and takes her daughter from her father. Tara laughed and Jax wrapped his free arm around her.
"Mommy has a special place in my heart, but I love her just as much as I love the 2 of you" He kissed Tara gently.
"Ewwww" both kids said in unison.
"Where staying here tonight" Jax informed Tara "I'll explain later but I gotta talk to the guys and go check out this MC and I want you and the kids here" he left no room for argument so Tara just nodded. Thomas came out with 2 bowls of ice cream and sat them down at the bar.
"Orders up you 2" He smiled at the kids. Jax and Tara sat them down and let them enjoy thier ice cream in peace.
"I'm gonna go to the house and get some things for us. I bring the kids so they can pick out the toys they want to bring. One of the prospects can come with me." Tara told Jax. He nodded and kissed the side of his head.
"Becarful. Till we find out what the hell this is there is no telling what going to happen and I need you to be extra carful. Take Thomas with you to he can help with the kids while you pack everything up. I gotta get into church"
"Ok baby. I'll text you when I'm on my way back. I love you" she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips lightly.
"I love you to" he tapped her ass and shuffled into church with the others.
"Come on guys we gotta go pack some bags. Where staying here tonight" Tara told her kids, who cheered. They loved spending the night here, the guys would do what ever they wanted and give them candy on a regular basis. They jumped from their bar stools and ran to the door. "Hold it!" They stop at the door and looked back at her "I need your hands" she looked at Tommy "Can you come with me?"
"Sure!" He said happily and walked over to grab Abels hand. Tara took Kallies and walked outside.
Everything happened in slow motion a van drove in to TM at high speed, the side doors open and a gun men emerges pointing a gun at Tara. She can see from the corner of her eye that Thomas jumps on top of Abel and scrambles away just before shot ring out. Tara bolts with Kallie in her arms and jumps behind a car she covers Kallies body with her own. She heard return fire and then saw the van screech out the lot.
"TARA!" Jax yelled. She didn't answer him though. She got up and picked up Kallie looking her over. Kallie was crying hysterically but Tara could care less as long as she was ok .
"Are you ok?" She pat her up and down make sure she wasn't hurt. Besides some few scratches she was fine. She picked her up and went to look for Abel, she found him being looked over by Thomas, who looked to be ok. "Abel!"
"Momma!" Abel yelled and ran to her. Tara fell to her knees and looked at both her kids, crying out of pure happiness that they were both ok. She felt Jax wrap his arms around them.
"Are you guys ok?" He asked as he checked them over. Tara nodded unable to speak, Jax crushed his lips to hers and then kissed each one of his kids.
"Aiden!" Maddy yelled as she frantically searched for her son. Jax picked up Abel who had a death grip on his father. The poor thing was scared out of his mind.
"Where was he?" Tara asked her.
"In the park! With the rest of them" everyone rushed to the little park on the lot, they didn't see any kids just someone laying on the floor. Tara could see the shoes and she almost passed out, she handed Kallie to Thomas and walked over. She gasped and dropped to the floor.
"Someone call 911!" She started to perform CPR "Come on Donna you can't do this to me! To your family!" She cried. As she tried her hardest to keep her cousin alive.
