This story is set about two years after the birth of Angela and will include all the main charactors plus a few new ones.
In the Ranger headquarters, Walker, Sydney and Gage are gathered around Walker's desk.
"I hate to admit it but there has to be a leak in THIS office," said Sydney hoping that her friends could convince her that she was way off.
"It can't be, the four of us were the only ones that knew we were planning that raid," argued Gage.
"Speaking of the FOUR of us, where is Trivette?" Walker said questioningly.
Just at that moment Trivette comes walking in the door. "Hey guys, I'm sorry I'm late. I had to take the baby to the center." "What did I miss?"
"Well, we were talking about the fact that Chavez was able to move his inventory just before we raided his warehouse. Do you have any ideas?" Walker asked.
"I hate to say it but it sounds like we have a leak." Jimmy answered honestly. The four of them looked at each other in an awkward silence.
Gage broke the silence by saying what each was thinking, "Who could it be? We set this one up ourselves."
Not wanting his Rangers to begin distrusting each other Walker suggested, "Maybe our office has been bugged. Trivette, why don't you call one of your FBI buddies and see if we can get a sweep done to check out the office?"
Trivette answered quickly "I'm on it."
Walker turns to his two young rangers, "You two go relieve Bob and Jack on the stakeout at Chavez' place."
"You got it, Boss," snapped Gage.
Walker sat in his chair watching his team of friends wondering if what they were all thinking could be true. Could one of them be the leak.
Inside a loud nightclub a handsome Hispanic man is sitting at his usual table smoking a Cuban cigar and giving orders between puffs.
"Miguel, I am pleased with the way you have improved our organization. I knew sending you to that expensive college would be a worthy investment," the man spoke in a fatherly tone.
"Thank you, Mario. You know I will do all I can for the family business," the younger man responded with reverence.
"I know, little brother, I am relieved to know that no matter what happens I can always trust you. Now, this Ranger that is helping us, that is another story."
"No Mario, he is in to deep to turn on us now.
The older brother leaned across the table and spoke softly, so that only his brother could here, "as soon as we as we trade the weapons for the cocaine we will be ready to move our operation and I want that liability removed."
The young man looked as if he wanted to argue but he knew better. "Yes Mario, I will take care of it." The young man's cell phone rang. He retrieved it from his jacket pocket, "Yes...Good...I will relay the information...Yes, the usual place."
Miguel turned to his older brother and said, "That was our Ranger. They will be expecting the transaction on Friday. He will be here in an hour for his payment."
"Good, the rangers have been diverted, so he is no longer necessary. We will meet and take care of him. Perhaps I will do it myself. I have always hated Texas Rangers," the older man said with a sadistic grin.
Outside the nightclub, Gage and Sydney sit in their car, quietly watching everyone that leaves and enters the building.
Sydney looks at Gage and quietly asks "You don't really think one of our Rangers is leaking information to the Chavez brothers do you?"
Gage glances over at his beautiful, young partner and says "Well, I know it isn't either of us, and nobody could convince me that it was Walker or Trivette. Walker must be right about the office being bugged.
She looked at him and smiled in agreement, but she couldn't shake the feeling that something was going on. She just couldn't figure out what.
They continued to watch and document all that they observed at the nightclub.
An hour had passed, when they saw a familiar figure walk in the front door of the club. They stared at one another in amazement as the truth was finally revealed.
Sorry it's a cliffhanger. I promise to have more personal moments with the main charactors this is just the set up for the rest of the story.
