Author's Note: First Attempt at writing 21 Jump Street Fan Fiction so please bear with the Author. Watching the show I always thought that Tommy had an air of mystery to him, you know like troubled teenage years or something, so I thought what would happen if Tommy had a child who wasn't introduced in the show; the shooting of Alicia Tray never happened. This is the product of that thought process.
"Damn it!!!" Tamika screamed as she and Clavo reentered his car.
"Calm down Mika. We'll find him. You had a lead and you followed it."
Tamika groaned and slammed her head against the passenger seat headrest, "A lead that lead us empty handed. Penhall there was nothing in there except glowing footprints. It was almost as if they were expecting an investigation."
Clavo smiled sadly. He knew her moods all of them, after all they have known each other since childhood and this mood clearly told him that she wasn't going to rest until they found her father.
They had just five minutes earlier came out of the empty warehouse, where it was clearly evident that something or someone had been held their captive but almost all evidence was cleaned away. Only footprints were left and that was found by a black light and a forensics fiber spray.
"We'll find him. I promise," Clavo urged.
Tamika turned her head to look at him. She gave a weak smile, "Don't make promises you aren't sure you can keep. What happens when we find him and he's dead? What if he's dead right now?"
Clavo shook his head, "You have to keep positive."
"Maybe Pops shouldn't have put me on this case. The victim holds too much emotional baggage for me. What if I decide to have a vendetta against his capturers?"
"You're not like that Mika," Clavo said seriously. "We all know that especially Fuller. Do you really think he'd let you sit around and drive him crazy for not letting you be apart of the case?"
That made Tamika laugh, "Ok maybe I would drive him crazy but still he's family Penhall that's a conflict of interest and you know it. What if IA comes and sees this?" She got sullen again.
"IA is not going to come. If they do it will probably be because they want to help. But no word has gone through Central yet. We're on our own on this one."
"I want these kids Penhall. I want to fry them for all they're worth," Clavo nodded as Tamika said these words.
"Come on let's head back to camp. We'll start fresh again tomorrow. Maybe someone will slip up." Clavo added.
Tamika just gave a small smile. "Let's hope so."
Clavo turned the ignition key to start the engine and drove off just as a lone figure appeared out of the shadows of a nearby alley.
That's odd. What were they doing here? Better call my contact and have him stall them. the figure thought as they turned around and walked back into the alley.
"What?" Angel Grape asked into his receiver. "I can't do that. They took me off the field. I'm not her partner anymore."
"Well, you better do something because if they find him it will be your head," the voice on the other end of Angel's receiver threatened.
"They aren't even going to be coming into the station to check in. I don't know where they set up their center of operations."
"You really shame me cousin. You are in that uniform because of me. I worked my ass off to get you there so you could be an informant. Now all of a sudden you grew a conscience? You better do what I tell you, the Family is starting to notice your disloyalty."
"Alright, I'll see how far I can get with stalling them. I know her though. She'll stop at nothing to get to him and if he's harmed in anyway, you better expect to prepare for World War III."
"I don't care how you do it. JUST DO IT!"
The phone went dead and left Angel staring down at his receiver.
"Oh man, I am so dead when she finds out my involvement in Tom's disappearance."
Clavo reached the parking lot to the apartment that neither had seen in six months. He parked the car in its assigned space and then turned off the engine. He looked to Tamika and sat in silence for a few moments. It was obvious that she was fighting the urge to cry. She was clearly frustrated.
"Mi vida, everything will be fine. You'll see."
"I'm sick and tired of you saying everything will be fine. So psycho kids have my father and there's no telling what they'll do. It has to be pretty bad, whatever it was that Dad was on track of, for them to do this. I want my Dad back now!"
Clavo sighed. He had no idea what to do anymore to comfort her, short of wrapping her in his arms and never letting go. "Come on, Let's go in. You could use some sleep."
"I can't go in there," Tamika answered distraught. Memories were swelling in her mind. There was there passionate love making that happened every time set foot inside the door even on assignment. Then there was the time she came home excited about passing the final exam that allowed her to graduate from the police academy.
She thought she'd be able to go on assignment with Clavo and be able to share the apartment with him until the case was resolved now since the kiss in the school's hallway, she was rethinking the whole situation.
"You have to Mika. You can't stay at the house or any of the others' places. We can't even go to the Chapel."
Tamika sighed. "I don't care Penhall. I just can't go in there."
Clavo was now realizing why it was that his ex couldn't go in to this particular apartment. "I have those memories too Mika but I'm going to be strong and walk in there. I want you to come with me."
"Why? Why should I? I mean come on Penhall I wasn't exactly the best person after I became full time on the force. Why would you want to share an apartment with your ex-wife?"
"Because I'm still in love with her and even if we are divorced we still have to work on a case together."
Tamika groaned knowing Clavo was trying to be the voice of reason and knowing she had no other place to go.
"I'm wondering if Fuller had another reason beside the one we all know to put those two together on the case," Doug asked his friends.
Judy and Harry chuckled at Doug's line of thinking. They all were at a Bar drinking some beer.
"If you're thinking that Fuller put those two together to become match maker, you're seriously deluded." Judy answered her friend.
"Yeah, the only reason he did put them together was because he wasn't about to listen to her whine about being put on the sidelines instead of out in the field." Harry laughed. "Sometimes you're amazing. Why'd you come back to the force anyway? You're good for nothing." He joked.
Doug scowled at Harry and was about to say something but saw Adam approach them, "Don't you guys have some assignments to do," he mocked.
"No sir, paperwork is all done," they chorused and laughed.
Adam just shook his head amused. "So debating about why I put the young ones back together on assignment," he asked knowing his team so well.
"The thought did cross our minds," Doug spoke up first.
Adam nodded, "Knowing you Doug you thought I was trying to also play match maker. You're right."
Judy and Harry almost spit out there beers. "WHAT?"
"She's my surrogate granddaughter," he began, "She's been miserable and so has he. You can see it in their eyes. He didn't want it to end. He just had to give her awake up call and I guess it went too far."
Doug smiled weakly and nodded his head. He could remember countless of nights that Clavo came to him complaining that what a mistake he made asking for the divorce. "He's right. I just hope they are tearing each other's limbs off."
