Xaviar was sitting behind his desk, as per usual, pouring a glass of wine. Then handing it over to a modestly built man, with a bit of a belly but not so much as to call him fat, he had blonde hair with brown eyes, he nodded with a small smile as he took the glass.

"Thank you sir" he said as Xaviar grinned with a nod as he poured a glass for himself.

"No thanks are needed Ed, it's a great year. Was a bonus for a blow delivery to some celebrity" he said as Ed chuckled and took a sip, smacking his lips.

"Tasty Xaviar very tasty." He said before he chuckled some more "I'm sorry I probably have no say in wine. I'm not that classy" he said as Xaviar shook his head

"You're as important as you feel Ed" he said getting up from his desk and walking over to him, twiddling his wine in his hand. "and I think you're a great guy" he said as Ed set his wine down.

"I'm not that great man, I'm just small time" he said as Xaviar took a sip of wine.

"Modesty will only get you so far son" he said as he set his glass down next to Ed's on his desk. "Since your down here I know you're interested in my proposition" He said as Ed looked at him and nodded.

"Only if the deal is right" he said as Xaviar crossed his arms.

"And I'll only negotiate if you can bring something to the table." Xaviar said as Ed thought for a moment.

"I have a great small group of loyal employees, a couple whole sale dealers you don't have. And also a billion in raw funds" he said as Xaviar looked interested.

"How's your relationship with the police?" Ed shrugged in his seat

"I have a man on the inside. He keeps me informed, you know pretty standard thing" he said as Xaviar sighed and nodded

"I remember my first man on the inside. His name is Jack, started as beat cop. Now he's a lieutenant"

"Nice" Ed said as he grabbed his glass "I take you two still talk?"

"Of course, when you got a good man you hold on to him" Xaviar said as Ed took a sip.

"Then he probably knows all the cops that are working for Mel am I right?" he asked as Xaviar shook his head

"No you know crooked cops, the ones that squeal usually get their throats crushed in" he said as Ed chuckled

"Well then… my guy knows some guys that need them crushed in" he said as Xaviar looked at him astonished as Ed took another sip with a grin on his face.

"You know…" Xaviar said as he uncrossed his arms "I think we can talk about our deal now" he said as Ed finished his glass before looking at Xaviar

"Definitely"

Outside the warehouse…

Trudge was glancing at the ground, trying to make it not seem like he was looking for something. To everyone else he was just a guy in a sweatshirt looking at the ground. As he got to the front of the warehouse, as close as he would allow himself, he tried his damnedest to find what he needed on the ground. Gladly the docks ground was mostly cement so a piece of black rubber would jut out like a sore thumb. Which it did, on a slight but noticeable scuff on the ground he found it, a piece of rubber the size of a nail clipping. Reaching down quick he picked it up, gripping it in his hand, as he began to slowly and calmly walk off. Making it seem like he was a stray bum looking for the underground duels. Little did he know of the person who saw him inside the warehouse. The same goon

In no time did Trudge return to Mina with what he found and the goon telling his boss of the continued 'spy' that he claimed to have saw. Using some basic chemical analysis at her house, Mina and Trudge were able to determine that the Rubber outside the the warehouse was indeed ackitube.

"Great! We got 'em Trudge we got them!" Mina said excitedly as Trudge pumped his fist

"Your damn right! C'mon let's get to HQ and get that warrant" he said as Mina nodded and grabbed the evidence as well as some paperwork as they made haste to Sector security.

At the izinski residence…

Suki had called Patty's mother, admittedly using Patty's phone to call her, to let her know that Patty was going to stay over. Seeing Leo and Patty cuddled up on the couch was just too cute and she couldn't just shake Patty off Leo. Plus that smile on her face told her that she probably shouldn't do it anyway, not to ruin a moment. Patty woke up first, she almost jumped up out of shock when shock when she saw the position they were in, instead she just quickly scooted herself to the other end of the couch. On accident though she hit Leo's leg cast, jolting him awake.

"OW!"

"Oh my gosh I'm so so so sorry Leo" Patty quickly said, her hands covering her mouth, as Leo rubbed his good hand over his cast

"Ow ow owy" he said as Patty frowned

"I'm really sorry Leo" she said sorrowful, Leo catching on to her tone

"It's okay Patty" he said trailing off with a chuckle as he tried to pat her on the back. One problem, he couldn't reach her and the casts made it hard to scoot over. He kept trying, Patty giggling at his attempt before sliding over a bit to let him. Leo smiled as he gave her a pat before taking back his hand. "I can not freakin' wait for this stupid cast to come off" Leo said aggravated as Patty patted his casted arm.

"Trust me I know the feeling, I broke my leg once" she said as Leo tried shuffling up but again was having difficulty. Patty sprang up and helped him up "Thanks" he said once he was standing.

"Don't mention it, so now what?" she asked as Leo shrugged

"I don't know, wanna go call Dex and go see who's dueling?" he asked as Patty enthusiastically nodded as Leo chuckled.

At Zora's

Everybody was hopping on their runners, Carly doubling with Crow, as Carly gave everyone a sheet of paper. Each of them had numbers on them, they had decided to break up the 20 unowned warehouses between the four of them so each had five warehouses to check out. Carly tried to keep the numbers she gave everyone relatively close to each other but some were spaced about 10 warehouses apart from each other.

"Okay remember stay hidden just keep a eye out for anything odd at your locations" Carly said as Yusei, Akiza, and Crow started their engines.

"And no cellphones, if we're right then we don't want to risk getting caught" Yusei said as Crow and Akiza nodded while Carly hopped on with Crow.

"Meet back here once you've checked out everything" Carly said

"Got it" Akiza said as Yusei opened their doors and the three runners bursted out.

Back with Xaviar…

He reached for the phone, Ed standing next to him sighing as Xaviar dialed the number. After two rings someone picked up

"Yes boss?" the man on the other end said

"Lieutenant I would like to make a anonymous tip" he said as Xaviar's police leak looked oddly at his phone.

"What are you talking about?"

"I have evidence that could lead you to the capture of one of the crime lords you've been looking for"

"Boss are you crazy?" he asked keeping his voice low "you know that Mel and Ed have people here, if we try then…" he began to say before Xaviar interrupted

"In this evidence I have, I have every single cop that is in league with him" Xaviar said as his lieutenant stopped in his tracks. Taking in a breath Xaviar started again "One of your police officers will arrive shortly with the evidence and list of names for Mel's men. Take them out and send for Mel quick before they warn him" he said, a long period of silence taking place before he answered again.

"Yes sir, I need to warn you that were going to tare the docks apart when we get there. You need to leave now, I'll tell you when things cool over there for you to move back" he said as Xaviar grinned

"Thank you for your cooperation officer" he said as he hung up the phone and got up from his desk.

"Well?" Ed asked as Xaviar began to walk, picking up something from his desk.

"We're in the middle of a war zone, we need to get out of here now" he said stressing on the word now as he set his object back down on the desk before looking at Ed.

"call your men tell them to get out of the docks right now, make sure they don't leave anything behind that could connect to you" He said in haste as Ed nodded

"Yes sir" he said as he picked up the phone while Xaviar stepped out, two of his men outside his door.

"You tell everyone here to pack up and run to the safe houses in the city, tell them we only have 30 minutes at best" he said as his man nodded and ran downstairs as Xaviar looked at his other guy "and you pack up my office, leave nothing behind"

"Yes sir" he said as he hurried in the office as Xaviar stepped out down stairs, heading for one of the vans in the warehouse as Ed ran down to catch up with him.

"My men know, their packing up as we speak"

"Good good" Xaviar said as he opened the van's door and gestured for Ed to enter before he did, one of his men running over to the driver's side and starting the van leaving while the rest of Xaviar's men hurried to pack up what was there.

Sector security HQ…

Mina and Trudge began for the enetrance when they saw a officer running out in a rush, someone slamming the front doors open and running for him.

"Stop!" the man yelled as the running man kept going, only for Trudge to step infront of him and grab him. He struggled but Trudge got him in a lock as he kept struggling as the officer caught up to him and cuffed him "Oh man thank you guys"

"What's going on here?" Mina asked

"One of out Lieutentant got a tip about corrupt cops, this guy was one of them" he said as the guy tried to struggle again but wasn't going anywhere.

"Wait really?"

"A whole list man, at least 30" he said as Trudge was left dumbstruck as Mina kept on track.

"Which lieutenant got this tip?"

"Lieutenant Riki, he's gathering some men together to hit the docks" he said as the guy tried to break away violently but the cop held onto him tight. "I'm sorry guys I have to take this guy in, if you hurry you can find him." He said as the cop lead him back in as Trudge and Mina hurried in. It was chaos at headquarters with men cuffing other men and others throwing on body armor. Heading for the higher ups offices they found Lieutenant Riki's, as he was sorting through a large file as he looked up at them.

"Detectives, man I'm glad to see you" he said as he walked over to them "I'll take you've heard?"

"What evidence do you have?" Mina asked straightforward as Riki presented her with some of the evidence on his desk as the both looked through it.

"I got a anonymous tip, possibly from one of the drug lords men, about these cops and evidence to lead to his arrest" he said as Mina handed Trudge the evidence to speak.

"Nothing sucpicous about this?"

"Are you kidding this is more shaky than a dog that just ran through the rain, but the evidence checks out perfectly. I have even have in voices that support that the cops that are being taken in have in deed been in contact with something not the up and up, even suppling weapons" he said as Trudge looked up.

"My god"

"I know" he said looking at them "We've always known that the docks was a scummy place but we didn't have any evidence for a full scrubbing of that place, we only had suspicion. Now…" he said grabbed a few sheets of paper on his desk "… we got it, we can do it now." He said as he looked at Mina "I know you two are great cops, so I'm going to ask if you can help me with this bust" he asked as Trudge nodded while it took Mina a moment or two to nod as well. It'd be better for them anyway with a bulk of men looking through the docks instead of just them.

"Well when do we head out?" Mina asked as Riki gestured for his door.

"Now"

At the docks…

Xaviar had gotten all his assests out of the docks as well as Ed. While it had only taken 30 minutes for them to do, as well as Yusei, Crow, Carly, and Akiza to arrive. They parked their runners just on the edge of where the docks began, as to not stir up anyone by their runners engines. Each of them ran into the Docks and began to look around. Akiza checked out her five in a snap, luckly hers were the closest together. Nothing but trash around them with dusty windows showing they hadn't been used in some time. So she headed back to Zora's first, waiting for the others.

Then, without warning, a barrage of sector security officers was gathering on the docks. No sirens, no sound, they were here to take a criminal in so no warnings. And for Trudge and Mina this may have lead them to Luna.

Oh boy I remember when I really liked the cop stuff for this story. Hope you're enjoying, remember to leave a review if you do. Next chapter we'll get some justice against Governor Jacob, as always enjoy the rest of your day my readers.
