Warrick, Gil and Brass arrived at "Delaney B's coffee shop fifteen minutes later and began looking for Officer Hawke and his partner Mike.
After entering the coffee shop and being unsuccessful they were ready to leave when Mike got out of his vehicle. Brass, Gil and Warrick raced outside. "Officer" Gil yelled, " Do you have a minute?"
Warrick was the first to reach the officer and immediately lost control. " Were is he?" he snapped " where is Hawke?" Brass came to Warrick and pulled him back away from Mike. " Warrick, you have to calm down." Brass warned him but Warrick would not have it. " No way, he knows where Hawke is and he has Cath and Sara."
Gil put a hand on Warrick's shoulder "Do you need to wait in the Tahoe?" Warrick shook his head " maybe I should" he walked back to the Tahoe and slammed his fist on the hood.
Gil turned to Mike "I was wondering if you could point us in the direction of Officer Hawke?" he asked.
Mike hesitated and had a worried look written across his face. "Ahh, Hawke is.." he stammered. Brass took the opportunity to help in the questioning. " Let's remember that if you lie for him, you will go down with him, it is not worth It." he paused and looked into the cruiser window. " It is clear that he is not with you like he is supposed to be so where is he."
Mike sighed and brushed a hand through his hair. "Alright but, you did not hear this from me. Hawke and I went to the Mossey residence and he told me to wait in the car. He was in the house for about five to ten minutes when I decide to go in after him. I was about to go in he house when he came rushing out. He said that there had been an attack and call some other units to the scene. I did not think much of it, but it was a little weird. And then after you guys questioned him he asked me to cover shift for him because he had to take care of a few things at this house we found one night that was being used for drugs, he said he had a tip that it was being used for drugs again and he had orders to check it out."
Gil made a face " Why did you not go with him?" Mike made a face back at Gil " I have a responsibility and I figured if he wants to run off I am not going to stop him."
Brass was not buying his story completely and cut in before Gil could ask another question.
"Where did you go after our interview?"
Mike looked around nervously, maybe I should call my boss or a lawyer before I say anything else."
Gil was losing control by this time " You don't get it do you, he has two of my best CSI's and if anything happens to them you will be held responsible so just spit out what you know and stop wasting my time."
"He asked me to bring them to the abandon house out on the old 64 highway He told me that they had planted evidence that would have me arrested along with him and they needed to be stopped. He said he was only going to talk to them."
Brass made a face this time " and you believed him?"
Mike lowered his head like a whipped dog. " You don't refuse or question anything Hawke say's he has seniority, he is a great cop and everyone loves him, it's his way or no way." he paused " You don't cross Morris Hawke."
HEY AGAIN. SO I JUST MADE UP THE HIGHWAY THING AND THE DONUT SHOP AS FAR AS I KNOW THEY DONT EXIST IN LV
