September 11th, 2015:
Kensi and Deeks waited in their tinted SUV for Callen and Sam at their supply location. Kensi remained silent as Deeks tapped on the steering wheel to the radio. "Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind. People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time." He sang
Kensi twisted herself watching Deeks bob his head up and down with the beat of the song.
"Deeks!" Kensi shouted annoyed "really now's not a good time."
He laughed still banging on the steering wheel to the beat of the drums "It's always a good time for a little Black Sabbath." She gave him a look in aggravation. "Not a fan of Ozzy O…noted." He sighed twisting the nob to turn down the music further.
"I am a fan, but we need to be alert."
"So your Paranoid." He giggled causing her to roll her eyes as she remembered the name of the song playing through their car.
"They're here." She said pointing to another large vehicle pulling up. Kensi and Deeks both exited the vehicle and walked towards the other car as Callen and Sam expelled from their vehicle.
"Good Morning lovebirds," Callen said closing his door. "How's the undercover life treating you?"
"5 months of being a bodyguard for a guy with a brain the size of a pea has been amazing." Kensi said sarcastically "At least Javier is tolerable."
Deeks put his hand on his chest and hissed at Kensi's burn. "Wow, I don't know how to follow that up." He squinted his eyes trying to think of something to say back. Sam raised one eyebrow and watched the shaggy-haired man stand in silence for a moment. "Yeah, I got nothing."
"That's a first." Sam huffed "Made any progress?"
"Since the police raid, Javier has put his full trust in us. Has even asked Kensi, a few times, to accompany him when he meets with his dealers as extra protection."
Callen looked at Sam with a smirk. Kensi noticed and jutted out her jaw "Javier got us a meeting with the head of the Diamondbacks since he'll be in town for a session with the spades."
"When's the meeting?" Sam asked
"Tomorrow. That's when we'll ask about an intro with the Spades." Deeks answered.
Callen looked down at his watch and then back to the couple across from him. "Be careful." He said turning back to the car, Sam followed suit and reached for his car door handle.
"Always watch your Six." He advised the two nodded their heads before turning back to their vehicle.
September 12th, 2015:
Javier led them through an ornate mansion and up a spiral staircase. Deeks listened to Javier drone on about the different decorations and their origin while Kensi took note of guards scattered through the house. Javier stopped them by a door guarded by two giant men with automatic weapons.
"I'll go in and tell him you're here." Javier smiled "And then I'll come and get you okay."
Deeks nodded to the man who disappeared behind the door. A few minutes later Javier stuck his head out and motioned for Kensi and Deeks to enter. The two guards stopped them and frisked them quickly checking for weapons and then allowed the two to enter.
Deeks held out his hand to the man behind the large desk as a sign of respect. Kensi did the same after the man shook Deeks' hand.
"Don't move" The man boomed. Deeks and Kensi exchanged looks but remained still. "Javier has told me many things about you." The man spoke as he got to his feet and rounded the desk. He stared at them intently and in silence, Kensi's muscles tensed ready to fight if they had been made. However, the man broke by forming a large smile on his face and wrapping Deeks in his arms. He lifted Deeks off the ground making the scruffy man gasp as the tight grip knocked out all of his air. The man then went over to Kensi and placed a drawn out kiss on her lips. Kensi's eyes widened as the man pressed his face against hers. Deeks placed his hand over his mouth to block his smile as the large man removed his lips and walked back around the desk. "You saved my son from those pigs."
Deeks coughed in astonishment "Son?"
"Sí, Javi is my only son and next in line to control the diamondbacks."
Javier rose from his seat and motioned to the man "My friends, meet my father Andreas Vuelvo."
"Mr. Vuelvo I don't mean to-" Deeks began
"Please, call me Andreas. You are like family to me now. You saved my son's life. Which is a debt I could never repay."
Deeks nodded and started again. "Andreas. I don't mean to be blunt, but I'm a business man and while I am making a large steady profit through the diamondbacks, I want to expand my earnings. I understand you know about the Spades and how to start trading with them. Natalya and I would like to meet with the Spades' leadership and offer our services."
The older man leaned over and whispered into Javier's ear before returning his gaze to the two across from him. "I'm sorry my boy, but you misunderstood. Spades isn't an organization like the diamondbacks."
"I don't understand." Deeks said very perplexed by the older man's words.
"Spades is an auction. It is where groups like mine or the Taliban or the mafia or whoever else meet peacefully and buy and sell items."
"So then how do we become a dealer?" Deeks asked
The older Vuelvo looked to his son, "they promised to still do business with us like usual this just gives them an extra source of cash." Javier explained. Andreas nodded at his son's words and turned back to Deeks and Kensi.
"To become a dealer you must have an invitation from Spades' administration."
"So how do we get connected with Spades admin?" Deeks asked
"YOU don't. Anonymity is at the core of Spades; nobody knows who leads Spades operations. Spades connects with you. How? I have no idea because I am not a part of Spades administration. There is only one person apart of Spades that anyone ever sees or speaks too. And that is the auctioneer."
"The auctioneer?"
"He is at every sale to make sure buyer and seller don't try to double cross each other, he picks and chooses which items from the dealers go up at each meet, and the minimum prices for each product."
"So then how do we get a meeting with him."
"That is also not going to happen. The auctioneer doesn't deal with anyone he doesn't know." Deeks faced twist with dismay as the older fellow paused. "Luckily, the Diamondbacks are valued customers amongst the Spades auctions, and I have become one of the people the auctioneer knows. I'll see what I can do to allow you to sell your products." Deeks looked up with excitement and surprise.
"Seriously! Thank you!" He exclaimed holding out his hand to the older man who shook it firmly.
"It is no problem, my boy. It's the least I can do for family."
November 8th, 2015:
"This could be it" Deeks whispered to Kensi who was locking the final crate of weapons in the back of their SUV.
"From here it's only going to be more dangerous so we need to focus" Kensi said turning around and fixing her gaze with the shaggy-haired man in a suit.
"Are you afraid Mrs. Volkov?" He asked closing the back hatch. The woman gave him a look before walking to her side of the car. Deeks did the same and the two entered the vehicle together. They closed their doors before Kensi turned to Deeks.
"I'm not afraid, I'm just thinking realistically." She explained "the very small amount of intel we had, proved to be wrong. Now we really are going in blind with no backup. Nell and Eric are trying to find anything to help, but if they do find anything we'll already be within Spades. We need to be smart and cautious with every action we make from here on out."
Deeks nodded his head and grabbed Kensi's hand and squeezed it lightly. "I know Kens; I won't do anything stupid."
Kensi raised her eyebrow at the man's words. "I'll try to not do anything stupid." He clarified.
A cellphone in the front console began emitting a shrill ring breaking the two's concentration. Deeks let go of Kensi's hand and reached for the phone. "That's Javier." He said aloud before bringing the phone to his ear.
"Good evening this is Parsons Incorporated we focus on providing a large Bang to any occasion you may have. My name is Kyle and how may I be of service to you today."
Kensi tilted her head back at Deeks' comment and rolled her eyes as their previous conversation had now effect on him. She remained silent as Deeks talked to Javier for a few minutes before removing the phone from his ear.
"12th and Longcrest" He said turning the engine over. "The auctioneer wants to meet."
Deeks looked down at his watch as he exited the loud arena into a smaller backroom. 2:19 am
He smiled and nodded to the other dealers wheeling in their crates of products as he walked past. His mouth twisted in confusion as he could see his station missing his partner. He walked up to the guard stationed nearby. "Hey, Buck. Do you know where Natalya is?" He asked
Buck thought for a second before shaking his head "Haven't seen her for a few hours, but check with the auctioneer ain't nothing goes on without him knowin."
Deeks smiled thanking him for his answer and walked away. He stopped at his station looking for anything out of the ordinary before walking towards a room at the end of the giant warehouse. Two large security guards stopped him from entering the room.
"The auctioneer is currently with a buyer." One said
"Can you tell him that I need to talk to him whenever he's finished." The large brute nodded before Deeks went back to his station and hopped on top of one of the giant crates waiting to talk with the auctioneer. His knee shook violently up and down out of impatience and apprehension.
Andreas and Javier smiled at Deeks and Kensi as they exited their vehicle. Deeks returned the smile while Kensi took in their surroundings noticing any that could be an exit point or a blind spot if things went sour.
"Hello, my friends." Andreas chuckled embracing Deeks in a hug.
"Andreas." Deeks strained as the man tightly squeezed him "Thank you for setting this up."
"Anything for family" He replied turning to Kensi. He was about to place a kiss on her lips when she slipped her hand up blocking her mouth from his.
"Where's the auctioneer?" She asked trying to divert the man's attention
"The auctioneer is somewhere nearby. He will send someone to bring us to him." Andreas answered
The four stood around quietly and waited until 2 SUVs pulled into the parking garage. 6 men filed out of the vehicles, large automatic weapons swaying on their sides as they walked up to Deeks, Kensi, and Vuelvos.
"The auctioneer is waiting." One said motioning to the vehicles, Kensi gave Deeks an apprehensive look. Deeks smiled and started walking to the car.
"About time." He replied Kensi followed after him while keeping her hand on the hilt of the pistol she had strapped to her waist. Deeks and Kensi slid into the dark vehicle and a few moments later Javier followed suit. Two of the men entered the front of the vehicle before driving off the lot.
"Parsons what about the merchandise?" Kensi asked
The man in the front passenger seat turned around and looked at the couple behind him. "The auctioneer will explain everything when we arrive."
Deeks turned to Kensi and patted her hand "Be patient Natalya." He turned his attention to the man "My bodyguard always looking out for me." He chuckled
The man scoffed before returning to face the front.
The rest of the drive the entire car remained silent, Kensi formed different contingent plans if things went awry while Deeks just stared out the window watching building after building pass by until there was nothing but darkness.
"We're here" Javier said aloud as the car slowly pulled to a stop. Kensi resituated herself ready for a fight while Deeks seemed to be in his own world.
The two men opened the car doors and allowed the three to file out.
Kensi's eyes instantly focused on a man 20 yards in front of them, she nudged Deeks in the side to focus his attention on the man. Andreas walked out of the other SUV and joined the three standing still, he placed his hand on Deeks' shoulder and gave a light squeeze.
"I've done all that I can my boy."
"Thank you, Andreas" Deeks said holding out his hand. The older man chuckled before pulling Deeks into another embrace.
"Thank you." He replied before letting go.
Kensi and Deeks gave each other another look before walking towards the unknown figure ahead of them.
"Hello," The figure boomed as he held out his hand "I'm the auctioneer."
Deeks head quickly turned to the back door when he heard two knew voices emanate from that direction. He quickly hopped off of a crate of guns and moved to the auctioneer's room as an unknown man exited.
The auctioneer smiled as he watched the shaggy man briskly walk up to his door. "Ah, Mr. Parsons just the man I wanted to see." Deeks smiled back and nodded
"Likewise." He answered his eyes glancing to the side as the two guards closed in around him.
"Please come in." The auctioneer said as he walked to his desk, Deeks followed behind and sat down in the chair across from the man behind the ornate desk. Deeks looked back at the two guards who followed in behind him.
"I didn't know our conversation needed an audience." He said sarcastically
"Tell me about your bodyguard." The auctioneer said brushing off Deeks comment. The blonde man quickly turned back to the man across from him at the mention of Kensi
Shit Kensi what did you do? He asked himself before giving the man a confused look.
"We met about a year ago. My business was beginning to take off, and I'm not very good shot. So I made the decision to venture into hiring a bodyguard that would protect me while doing potential investments with not very trusting clients. I put an ad out on the darknet wanting a gun for hire that would protect me and my products. She answered and proved herself during our first gun deal with the Diamondbacks when the cops busted in." Deeks stopped when the auctioneer's gaze shifted from him to the two men behind him. The man behind the desk folded his hands on the table in satisfaction.
"Did she do something? Is she in trouble." Deeks asked tension rising in his voice for his partner.
"How much do you know about your bodyguard Natalya Volkov?" the man asked again brushing off Deeks' questions
Deeks swallowed the lump in his throat and recomposed himself trying to maintain his cover. He bit his bottom lip as he squinted looking up at the ceiling. He then shook his head as he looked back at the auctioneer. "Besides her being a good shot and smoking hot. Am I right?" He laughed turning to the two behind him who didn't seemed amused. Deeks coughed a few times and turned back to the auctioneer. Based on the two guards lack of emotions he knew whatever Kensi had gotten herself into wasn't good. "Not very much," He answered, "She's never really talked about herself or her past." Deeks waited a few seconds and looked back at the two who remained still and he turned back to the auctioneer. "Your boys are really sticking to these big and scary roles so either they both have giant sticks up their asses which is what is making them pissed or something happened that's really really bad." Deeks leaned forward folding his hands on the desk mimicking the auctioneer "So which is it?"
The auctioneer's mouth twisted into a small smile at the man's persistent irritating persona.
"Miss Volkov is not who she claims to be." The auctioneer explained
Deeks cocked his head to the side "What do you mean?"
"My boys found her snooping around near one of our top priority products going up for sale in two weeks. This is a highly confidential product that nobody should've known about."
"So you think she's a cop?" Deeks asked he paused before leaning back and letting out a loud laugh "If she's a cop then why would she kill two other cops whenever we almost got pinched?"
"Sparrow believes she is more than just an LAPD officer. I have been instructed to pass a photo of her around to our buyers to gain more information on her."
Deeks sat quietly in his chair before quickly looking between the two men behind him and the auctioneer three times and then pointing to himself. "Do you think I'm a cop?" He asked with his eyes opened up wide in fear.
The auctioneer busted out laughing and slammed his hand on the table. "You a cop?" He heaved trying to settle his breath "You're too stupid to be a cop. I mean she fooled you by pretending to have a shootout with other cops and you fell for it."
Deeks nervously laughed along with the auctioneer a few times before asking "So what are you gonna do with her?"
The auctioneer looked back at the man in confusion and tensed up again. "Why do you care?"
"She's been with me to my supplier, my clients, my entire business. I ruined if she-
"Mr. Parsons," the auctioneer interrupted the now hyperventilating man "Sparrow is handling her personally. Once she tells us everything she knows, we will fix our mistake."
"Fix our mistake?" Deeks asked
"We'll kill her."
"Then I want in," Deeks said
"Not going to happen."
Deeks quickly jumped to her feet. "She played me! She's been with me for 7 months who knows how many of my clients have been marked because of what she knows. I'm ruined!" He slowly sat back down a slowly slid his hand over his mouth "When word gets out about this, I'll be viewed as a rat. I'm dead." Deeks clenched his hand into a fist and slammed into onto the desk "If I'm gonna have to disappear I want to make her pay for ruining my life."
The auctioneer sat in silence mulling over Deeks outburst.
Kensi what the hell did you do Deeks thought watching the man in front of him. The auctioneer slowly leaned forward again and folded his hands on the desk again.
"Okay. I'll talk with Sparrow and see if I can get you 10 minutes with the bitch cop."
Deeks let out a grateful sigh and held out his hand to the man who accepted it and gave it a firm shake. "You're free to go." The auctioneer said motioning to the door.
Deeks nodded and walked to the door he nodded to the two men "Boys." He smiled before opening the door and leaving. When the door shut he put his hands on top of his head and walked back to his station.
"What are we going to do." He whispered under his breath while shaking his head at the impossible task in front of him. Free Kensi and get both of them out and back to safety.
