Chapter 11:
SECSTATE said, "I need to make a call."
The AG asked, "Who are you calling?"
SECSTATE replied, "You don't need to know that. All you need to know is that the President will be held accountable for his actions."
The AG just gave her a grim nod as he exited the room. Once he was gone she made the call.
Riley sighed as he and Will again stepped out into the hall. Riley was wiping the blood off his hands as Prentiss asked, "He give you anything yet?"
Riley shook his head as he said, "That's one tough bastard. I water boarded him over 100 times, then I beat the living shit outta him and he still refused to talk."
Just then his phone rang. He grabbed it and growled, "Morgan."
Garcia said, "We found IDs on the terrorists you captured."
Riley drawled, "Break it down for me gorgeous."
Garcia smiled into the phone as she said, "Well first there's Sergei Andropov former VDV operator. He left the Russian Army three years ago and vanished."
Riley swore bitterly as she continued, "Then there's Anton Mueller. He's a former KSK sniper turned BND operative. He left the BND about three years ago and vanished as well."
Again Riley swore asked, "Is that all we got on these two?"
Garcia said, "That's it hot stuff sorry."
Riley said, "Thanks babe."
And with that he terminated the connection. Then he filled the rest of the team in on what Garcia had told him. When he was done Will said, "I heard Sergei Andropov was drummed out of the Russian Army for extortion, embezzling torture and murder."
Riley nodded as he asked, "What do you know about Anton Mueller?"
Will replied, "I don't know him. But I could make a few calls."
Riley nodded as he said, "You do that and get back to me most ricky tick."
Morgan asked as Riley walked off, "Where you going?"
Riley called over his shoulder, "To interrogate the Kraut."
Katerina Drakov was just about to climb in the shower when her cell rang. She grabbed it and said, "Hello."
Senator Hillary Drake said, "Katerina I need help?"
Katerina recognized the terror in her older sister's voice as she asked, "What is wrong?"
Hillary replied, "Our Russian friend wants me to find out where they are holding his brother. But I can't"
Katerina asked, "Why not; can't you use your position to find out?"
Hillary replied, "No. If I try I will be thoroughly questioned and possibly discovered."
Katernia asked, "What do you need from me?"
Hillary replied, "I know the Director of the CIA's counterterrorism unit. I also know he has a fondness for young blonde girls."
Katerina smiled as she said, "I'll make it a point to run into him. What is his name?"
Hillary replied, "His name is Harold Driscoll."
Katerina asked, "Can you send me a dossier on him?"
Hillary replied as she hit a few buttons, "I just did. Remember little sister our Russian friend needs this information."
Katerina said, "It will be done big sister."
Hillary said as she terminated the connection, "Good."
Riley glared at Anton Mueller as he thundered, "I'm going to ask you one more time why were you trying to kill Agent Cohen?"
Mueller smirked as he said, "Wouldn't you like to know."
Riley threw the table to the other side of the room and slammed Mueller; chair and all against the wall as he seethed, " Listen up you stupid kraut bastard. You will tell me what I want to know or by god I'll know the reason why."
Anton just glared defiantly at him. Riley hit him in the gut with a brutal uppercut, driving all of the air out of him as he bellowed, "Answer me,"
Anton continued to glare at him but otherwise remained silent. Riley slammed his head into the wall and watched him slide limply to the floor. When he walked back out into the hall and said, "He ain't giving us jack shit. Did you find out anything Will?"
What Will told him mirrored what Garcia had already told him. He nodded as he asked, "Well boys and girls any suggestions on how we break these assholes?"
Katerina Drakov checked out her reflection in the full length mirror. She had her long platinum blonde hair framing her beautiful face, her sea-green eyes were ringed in black mascara and full bee stung lips were painted a deep ruby red. She smiled at her reflection, grabbed her purse and sauntered out the door.
