"So what you're saying is things are way more fucked up then they were before?" Jakes asked the obvious question after Mike brought everyone up to speed after meeting with Bobby.

Paige looked up from the floor looking at Jakes, "Pretty much yeah."

Johnnie leaned back in his chair shaking his head he took a deep sigh, "So what do we do now?"

"We do what we do best." Charlie answered.

"And that would be?" Johnnie again asked.

"Jesus, Johnnie, seriously?" Briggs responded.

"I think what Johnnie is asking is where we go from here since we have nothing to follow up on since all trails have led to nothing"

"For starters we use this." Mike said while holding up a phone. "This is Bobby's or was his. He dumped it after the hackers interrupted their meeting. I took it, figuring Amy could find something on there that could possibly lead us to the hackers."

Paige looked at Mike with a surprised look. Mike could feel her staring but didn't look back.

"That's a start, Mike, but we need something else to work on." Jakes said.

"I might have something," said Johnnie.

"Are you going to leave us in suspense?" Paige asked.

"I was going to mention it before you cut me off, Paige."

"Sorry, Johnnie. You were saying?"

"After you and Mike left for the meet I was looking over the bodies. Did anyone notice that none of the victims had defense wounds on them? I mean they were all trained federal agents and not one of them had any defense marks or bruises on themselves."

Briggs grabbed a file and looked it over, "Damn, Johnnie, that's a nice catch they must have been drugged." Just then Charlie's phone started ringing and she left to answer it.

"Toxicology reports showed no signs of any drugs in the victims' systems."

"But it doesn't prove that they weren't drugged, Dale?" Paige questioned.

"I'm not saying they weren't. It's a possibility but we just don't know. It's a theory."

"We may be able to prove this theory." Charlie said returning to the group. The look on her face showed something was wrong. "They found another agent about an hour ago in San Pedro." Everyone had a somber look on their face as each took the news in their own way.

"What was his name?" Mike asked.

"Elliott Martin he was DEA." Everyone wanted to yell scream or hit something but instead each channeled their anger and focused it on the task at hand. "Paige, I need you down there. I'll call Silvo to get you access. Paige, do what you do- blend in and see what you can find."

"I'm on it."

"Good. Jakes, how are things with you and Cassandra?"

"They're ok why?"

"Do you think if Paige got you a blood sample of Martins she can have the lab at the hospital run it for us?"

"Yeah, I think so. If not I know a guy in the lab. Either way I'll get it done."

"Alright, Mikey, get Amy and head over to HQ and see what you can find on that phone."

"What about us? You leaving us on the sidelines?" Johnnie asked referring to him and Briggs.

"Actually I need you and Paul to go spend some time on the street and see what the feeling is out there. I know it's a lot to ask especially with everything that's going on but…"

Johnnie interrupted her before she could finish, "Charlie, you don't have to sweat it this is the job we're big boys we know the risks. If we hear anything we'll let you know." Charlie wrapped Johnnie and Briggs in for a hug. "I should be going with you,"

"No, you shouldn't. You're leading this investigation you need to stay here and real the plays like Belichick." Briggs said.

"I rather be Coughlin not some grumpy cheater like Belichick," said Charlie.

Briggs rolled his eyes as he hugged her, "Giants fans."

As everyone headed out Charlie said, "Remember to call in and be careful"

Mike grabbed Bobby's phone and was out the door but as he got to his car Paige grabbed him and pulled him aside. Mike didn't have to ask he knew that look to know why she was mad. "Ok I didn't tell them about Bobby and what he's doing but I have good reason."

"Care to share it?"

"I think we've been compromised"

Paige's eyes grew wide taking a step back at the allegation, "How can you say that about us Mike?"

"Not the team but I think there is mole or worse the killers work for one of the agencies"

"Mike if that were true and that is a big if only a few people know about us looking into this case"

"Paige no one but us, Amy and Silvo knew about the meeting change between the gangs earlier. Then by chance they were hacked and now the gangs know of the list and if they play ball with them there is no telling if or when the killers release the list or sell it to the highest bidder. Paige one of the agencies has a mole"

"So what's your master plan? Have Bobby find the hackers/killers and you bring them in and you're the big hero while the rest of us run around finding one dead end after another? "

"We working together, following the evidence to find the sons of bitches that are doing this is plan A. But if nothing pans out then we have Bobby who is plan B. Also if we are compromised then I am not going to put Bobby in danger by telling anyone so for right now the only people that know of plan B are you and me."

"And what if Bobby does find something?"

"Then we tell the team and we bring them down"

"Mike if you think that there is a mole then we have to tell the others."

"Fair enough but what about Bobby?"

Paige took a deep sigh, "For now we keep it between us but if shit hits the fan…"

"I got it and thank you" Mike took hold of her hand squeezing it. He went to let go but she held on interlocking their fingers rubbing her thumb over his. Paige moved in closer there chest pressed against one another's. She looked up onto his deep blue eyes, "Mike I…" Before she could finish Charlie opened the front door. Mike quickly pulled away before she could see what was going on.

"Am I interrupting something?"

"No we were just going over the game plan" Mike said. Charlie looked at both of them her b.s. detector was going off, "Whatever Paige you're good to go Silvo will meet you at the scene. Amy will meet you at HQ Mike no need to pick her up"

"Ok thanks Charlie I'll call you if we find anything" Mike then hoped I truck and took off. Paige then headed to her car but Charlie stopped her, "You going to be ok?"

"With looking at a dead DEA agent yeah. Trying to win back Mike's heart? No I'm not ok"

"Paige I…"

"One thing at a time Charlie. Let's find the bastards" With that she was off

Mike found Amy sitting at a computer hair pulled back but messy. Her body langue showed that she was tired but also depressed. Mike walked up to her offering her a cup of coffee. "I wasn't sure how you took it so it's just black."

Amy smiled taking the coffee, "Thank you, Mike, that's very sweet but from the looks of it you could use it more."

"Already had mine on the way over. If I have anymore I may never sleep but with the way this case is going I might not."

"I can't believe another agent is dead. These fuckers are evil. Sorry, I didn't mean to swear." she said her face deep red.

"No, that's pretty much what they are and besides its 3am trust me you can say whatever the fuck you want."

"Thanks for that. So what have you got for me?" Mike gave her the phone. "Thanks, Mike, but I already have a phone."

"Funny bit this phone belongs to an informant who had a run in with the killers."

"Wait, you know someone who saw the killers? How come we're not going after them?" Mike then explained about the meeting with the gangs and how the killers interrupted it. Amy sat back in her seat holding the phone in her hand. "So this informant they just gave it to you?"

"I was surprised too, but they want to find these guys as much as we do."

"The question is who will kill them first us or them?" Amy said while plugging the phone into her computer.

"We're not going to kill them, Amy. Justice will be handed out to them."

"Mike, agents from every sector of government want these guys dead. You're telling me you wouldn't want the pleasure of putting a bullet in their heads?"

"Killing them won't bring the agents back and killing them could lead to worse things. They have to be held accountable for their actions and they will. I'm not a killer, Amy, and when I do catch these assholes I will arrest them. If you think that killing these people is the only option then maybe you shouldn't be in this line of work."

Amy stood up and hugged him. Mike was so surprised that he wasn't sure what to do. "You're one of the good ones, Mike Warren. Always remember that." Amy pulled away then realizing how uncomfortable Mike was, "I'm sorry, Mike, I shouldn't have."

"Amy, its fine it was just unexpected that's all. Plus Paige and I well it's complicated and…."

"Whoa, Mike, just because a girl hugs you does not mean she instantly wants to fuck you. Besides you and Paige broke up like 5 minutes ago so…"

Mike slapped his hand on his face, "Now I feel like an idiot."

Amy again smiled nudging Mike's shoulder, "Don't sweat it champ." She sat back down as the two looked on at the computer.

"So you think you can find something on here?"

"I'll try but it's going to take some time. Listen why don't you lay down for a bit and if something comes up I'll get you. You're no good to me if you're a walking zombie."

Mike then headed to one of the break room and layed down on the cot. As he closed his eyes his thoughts went not to the case but to Paige. Yes, he was angry at her but he still loved her and hoped that she is safe tonight.
