"This mission comes from the D.O.D's office directly. Your backgrounds have been matched to this by some way." Stated Tony.
Michelle went ahead and handed out the information packets to all in the room.
"The mission is being called Operation Delta." Said the Secretary of Defense on a television monitor. The meeting was being seen in the Tampa, D.C. and LA's CTUs.
"What is the point of Operation Delta?" Asked Joan Harris.
"There are reports of a terrorist cell in Tampa calling themselves Morning Glory. They are headed by a man named Geoff Mahamad." The Secretary of Defense continued. "The cell is planning an attack in 2 days, we don't know where it is going to be yet. There are some major events and things in Tampa which are getting a tighter round of security as we speak.
"What will we be doing once and if we get on the inside?" Asked Chase.
"You will find out their plans and get them to trust you with those plans. You will be bugged so we will be able to hear everything that goes on." Responded Tony. "CTU Tampa will have 3 tact teams in place around the complex, but until we know their plans we can't go in.
Kim sat there shaking her head in disapproval of what she was hearing. They wanted her boyfriend to risk his life just to figure out what this terrorist cell was planning. The meeting went on for another 30 minutes in which they discussed the possible attack locations. Kim was the first one out of the meeting. She went and sat at her desk. Her father and boyfriend would be leaving tomorrow on what could be their last mission. Chase noticing her at her desk not working went over to see if he could calm her.
"Babe, you okay?" Asked Chase.
"I..I just don't like the idea of you and my dad going. I can't take anymore loses in my life and here are the two most important people in my life going into a terrorist group. Why can't they get someone else!" Kim said the tears now flowed freely.
Chase bent down to her eye level and whipped the tears from her eyes. "Hey honey, I know you don't want us there. I swear to you I will come back and bring your father home with me. Everything will be fine. I know these men personally one was my college roommate. He wanted me to join him, but I turned him down, he said if I ever change my mind to look him up." Chase said in the most reassuring voice.
"I just don't like it." Kim said before turning her head away from him.
"I know sweetie, I promise you all will be fine." Chase said. He hated to see someone he loved crying, it brought back memories of his deceased mother when his father walked out on them, she would cry for hours until she passed out. "Tonight me and you are going out to dinner. Okay?
Kim nodded in agreement before she finally got started on her days work. Chase stood and cupped her face in his hands and kissed her on the top of her head before heading to field ops.
Michelle walked over to Kim to give her files that needed to be put into the computer about the mission.
"Sooo. Did you tell him?" Asked Michelle.
"No, I don't want to worry him with this mission coming up and all. I mean I love him so much I just don't know how he will take it. It was hard enough for me to hear about it." Kim answered not being able to look up from her work.
"Well, you should at least tell your dad. I think one of them needs to know what's going on." Michelle said as she set the files down and left.
Kim couldn't believe as this was happening. She was so afraid about one thing and now she had all this to deal with.
Jack was sitting up in his office working as hard as always. But for some reason it felt different, maybe it was the fact that is daughter was downstairs upset and he knew there was nothing he could do to fix it. Or was it that his old best friend Geoff was now at a center of a terrorist attack, he used to be so loyal to America now he was planning on attacking her. Jack found no answers that gave him comfort. He went downstairs to check on the background information he and Chase would need to get into the group.
Jack finally left work to get his stuff packed and make last minute arrangement. He had a ritual of writing Kim a note everytime he went away on a mission incase something was to happen to him. He grabbed a pen and paper an began to write.
"My Dearest Kimmie,
I know how hard it is for you to read this right now, but I love you so much. I am always with you here in spirit and in your heart. You have surpassed my every hope for you. Your such a beautiful young woman Kim. Live your life to the fullest don't dwell on what has happened. You have a wonderful man next to you. He will protect you and help you. You couldn't have picked a better man. I pray that your future is as bright as your smile that I will miss. Everytime you feel a gentle breeze when there is no wind, that will be me reminding you of my love for you. I'm sorry I had to break my promise to you, forgive me. I love you so much my pumpkin.
I Love You!
Your Daddy.
Jack folded the paper and put it in an envelope and wrote Kim on the outside of it. He left it out on the counter as he always did just incase he wouldn't be back to dispose of it. He went and poured himself a drink before heading to take a shower and relax for the rest of the evening.
