I may have gotten distracted by a shiny object and totally forgot about updating this chapter the other day and my evil pet bunny has been trying to change the story...bad Chomper he was distracting me with a shiny quarter and got me sick
Sam and Callen watch the other six agents in the room and observe them, "Well let's get going," Sam said wanting to get a moving on it.
Dan glares at the man, "Need a few to actually get ready."
Jake claps his hand on his friends shoulder and then pulls Deeks with the group out of the room to his room, "Deeks not sure yuo realize it but Dan and Mark aren't going to take orders from them to well right now since they already think they are trying to take things over."
Deeks leans against the wall as they get ready, "Yeah I know figured that out by the glaring contest between the four of them. You know that it's hard for them from going to a lead team that wants to control the situation and then to having to take orders."
"Yeah but it seems to me they want to take things over because they don't trust us but all of us have been involved one way or another since this case started 7 years ago when it hit us. FBI has been looking into them for years before that but was more intent when Cardosa killed two agents. Need to make sure they really let you lead this they may have more years of experience than you but nothing like you do with this one group-"
Jorge walks out of the bathroom from the shower, "All yours Jake," he waits for Jake to get in and sits down drying his hair. "Deeks they are going to try and control this which would be good except were the ones who have worked for weeks trying to figure this out."
Sam and Callen look up as Deeks and the group walk in the room with 3 laptops and drop them on the table, "This is everything we have so far," Deeks told them. "Now play nice while I take a shower and then can get going," he said grabbing his duffle bag.
Kensi pulls out her phone and dials Nell and Eric, "Can we pull the feed from the last few days and have you look at it?" She asked Eric.
Eric and Nell start to click away on their laptops and nod, "Yeah we found the feed."
"Go through it and see if can find anything that may have missed and send it back here."
Ryan looks at the three NCIS agents, "What are you trying to say? That we have missed something that could have helped?"
Callen steps between the man and Kensi, "No just good to have another set of eyes that know how to look at things like this-"
Dan stands next to his friend, "That's what we have Jorge for."
Deeks comes out to a stand still and shakes his head pulling Ryan and Dan away from Sam and Callen, "Ryan, Dan and Mark go and get the cars ready for the trip and blast the heater becuase it's freezing out there and be a long drive with a storm coming. Jorge your staying here and going to watch things and call if something changes. Jake can make sure the comms and radios are ready and the rest can really stop trying to kill each other."
Kensi follows her partner out the door and to a Charger, "Deeks going to explain that?"
He starts his car and turns on the radio, "Kensi their pissed because Callen and Sam show up and are already trying to control things and take it over."
"Deeks they both have more experience in this-"
He interrupts her, "Kensi that's where all wrong. Jake has been with the FBI since he was discharged from the Marines where he served with Callen and Gibbs. Which is about 12 years. Jorge knows more about computers then McGee does. One thing no one took into account when you tried to control this was you may know more about OPs then I do but one thing you don't know is everything about this Cartel which is dangerous thing."
She leans against the side of the car, "Deeks just they want this to go well."
"Yeah Kens I know just blam any of them for feeling like left out of things way Callen and Sam are acting?"
The group walks into the room, "Jake, Dan and Mark one car. Ryan with me and Kensi. Sam and Callen with the other car but Jorge keep close eye."
Jorge nods at him and hands them all comms and radios, "Check in when get going."
They all head to the cars Deeks then Jake and Sam and head out, "Checking in on comms," Nell said.
"Alpha team ready," Deeks said with Kensi snickering next to him. "Quiet Fern or riding with Sam and Callen."
"Bravo team ready," Callen said as Sam rolls his eyes.
"Delta team ready," Jake said next.
...
Twenty minutes later the cars pull up not far from the compound and Deeks looks around cracking his neck, "How about Jake, Mark and Callen. Kensi, Dan and Sam. Ryan with me and let's take a look around and meet back here in 20."
Kensi takes a look at her partner who before she can say something takes off and she looks at Sam and Callen, "What was that about?" Callen asked.
Kensi shrugs her shoulders, "Not sure but guess barking orders before you can take over."
Both senior agents roll their eyes at the man's retreating back, "Kensi what expect he never has led-" Sam started to say.
Kensi stops him, "He has never led a team like you two have but look he knows more about this group then any FBI agent and he seems to have kept these guys alive. I trust Deeks to know what he's doing and after 4 years you should to. Mark your with me also."
Sam and Callen watch the three of them walk away, "Did she just scold us?" Sam asked his partner.
Jake who was leaning agianrt the nearby car speaks up, "If the roles were reverse would you really feel different?"
...
30 minutes later, Deeks was the only team not back to the cars and Kensi was currently pacing in a circle not listening to anyone who was trying to get her to calm down and out of the raging snow storm that had started, "Callen we need to go and find him."
Callen and Sam knew Kensi was going to go nuts until Deeks showed up after finding 2 comms in the snow smashed, "Kensi we need to let the storm ride out or going to get lost," Sam said.
Silence is broken by noice on the radio, "Fern can you stop pacing and get in the damn car," Deeks said into the radio.
Kensi snatches the radio from Callen who was holding one, "Where the hell are you two?"
"Right behind you," he said and walked over to the cars. "Sorry got lost when the storm hit. Find anything?" Everyone shakes their heads and the ride back to the hotel was silent and Deeks lays back agianst the headboard in his room as there's a knock at the door. "Come in Sunshine," he called out.
Kensi walks in with some tea and coffee and donuts and hands him some, "Callen is watching the laptop and rest of them crashed."
He drinks some tea, "Kensi what you thinking?"
She shakes her head ignoring his question, "Nothing really just about the whole case and you standing up to Sam and Callen by barking out team groups."
He chuckles looking out at the snow falling outside still heavy, "Had to or they weren't going to play nice with each other and needed to if going to end this soon and no one hurt or worse."
a few more days later
Callen and Sam are in their room when there's a knock at the door and Callen pulls out his SIG and looks in the peephole but chuckling lightly and putting his weapon in the back of his pants and opening the door for Gibbs, Tony and Ziva, "Thought wasn't coming?"
Gibbs hands him coffee as they walk into the room, "That was until found a way into the compound with them knowing."
"How you plan that to happen?" Sam asked taking an offered coffee.
Ziva sits down on one of the beds, "Simple McGee messes with the security feeds and we go in all cold."
Tony snickers, "It's we go in all hot Zee-vah and not a bad idea. You guys have all the gunpower we need and can leave soon as he says is good."
Deeks looks in the peephole as there was a knock at his door and see Gibbs and everyone, "What brings you all the way here?"
"McGee and Abby came up with an idea as to how we get in there without getting killed and we came for back-up," Ziva told him.
will McGee and Abby's idea work in order for them to get in there and finish the case once and for all? can they work together as a team or not?
please review and tell me what you think?
