Chapter 7 I should have apologized

A/N: Thanks for the new review. So this is the last chapter. Thank you for reading. Here we go.

Chapter 7

Don stood, together with Colby, in front of the hiding place; another warehouse. He signalized the SWAT-team to go around and then he opened the door, always ready to shoot. Colby followed him. No one was there.

"Dammit!", Don cursed quiet. Where were Amita and Larry? Was Charlie wrong about the place? No... that couldn't be. Charlie was always right, there was no way he could have failed this time... It was too important. Don looked around. And finally Colby saw something.

"Don.", he whispered and when named man looked at him he pointed at a door, probably leading to an extra room. Slowly the agents moved forward. They exchanged a short look before they kicked in the door.

"FBI!", Don yelled and lowered his gun when he had checked that none of the bad guys were there...

His eyes caught sight of Amita and Larry and he immediately ran to them and kneeled down.

"Larry..."

The professor had his eyes closed and didn't open them. He was unconscious. Don turned his attention to Amita. She stared at Larry with tears in her eyes and the agent focused on calming her.

"Amita. Come on, stand up."

Don laid Larry on the ground and helped Amita to stand up.

"Colby, get her out of here."

Colby did what Don told him and brought Amita outside. Meanwhile Don lifted Larry up and carried him out of the house. An ambulance was already there and Don let the paramedics take care of Larry and Amita.

The SWAT-team had caught Frankson and he was brought to a police car. Don slowly walked to the car and looked down at the man who had kidnapped his friends and blackmailed his brother. Owen just smiled at him, an evil smile.

"It's not over yet, Agent Eppes. I'll soon be free and you can't do anything about it."

"Think so? You'll regret what you've done. I hope you'll never get out of prison.", Don just answered and closed the door. Frankson would never hurt them again, Don would protect his family and friends.

Don watched how the car drove away and then he got our his phone and dialed Charlie's number.

"Charlie? We caught Frankson and found Amita and Larry. You have to drive to hospital, okay?"

Charlie seemed frightened when he asked:

"Hospital? W...why?"

Don sighed. He had to tell Charlie about Larry, but it was not easy.

"Ehm... Larry was shot, but he'll be okay. Don't worry. We'll meet at the hospital. Bye"

Charlie met Don on the hallway and immediately asked about Larry and Amita. His brother just smiled at him. He had good news.

"Amita and Colby are with Larry and David. Larry's surgery went well and David woke up. Everything's alright now."

Don and Charlie entered the room. Charlie was relieved when he saw Amita and Larry. Charlie just hugged his friends... and told them what he needed to say: "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have insulted you, Larry. I shouldn't have said that the plan is bad, Amita. I was so worried about you. Please forgive me."

Amita and Larry exchanged a smile and just nodded.

"Of course we forgive you. We love you, Charlie."

"And I love you."

Everything would be okay... fortunately.
