Tanglewood
Tony couldn't believe Danny Messer had gotten away again. He knew Sonny should've taken care of him a long time ago. Now, if he didn't find the CSI soon, Danny would tell everything to Taylor. But Tony had no intention of winding up like his cousin. He called the rest of his Boys. "We've got find Messer before he can get to Taylor. If you see him, shoot him." He ordered.
"But he's a cop. We kill him, every police officer in the state will be at our front door." Joe, the youngest of the Tanglewood Boys, pointed out.
"Only if he lives to tell them who did it. I want that kid who with dead, too. Little rat will ID me and the rest of you." He didn't and that Matthew had also embarrassed him by knocking him flat on ass and escaping.
"But this Taylor is smart. He won't need them to figure out what happened. Especially when he thinks about somebody with a grudge against him." Joe still knew killing a cop was not a good idea. They were sure to catch them and Mac would more likely come after them if they killed someone on his team.
"They can't prove anything without a witness." As far as Tony was concerned, Daniel Messer was living on borrowed time. The Tanglewood Boys started the hunt.
At the paring garage, Stella and Hawkes were processing the scene for both the original murder and where Danny, Don, and Matt had stumbled into the Tanglewood Boys. Mac pulled up in his silver CSI SUV. "Did you guys find anything?" He needed to figure what direction Tony and the Tanglewood Boys had gone. If they weren't found soon Danny and Matt would be attacked again.
"Shoeprints, and blood that may have come from someone besides Danny." Stella told him. "Neither will do us any good until we have something to compare them with." She hoped they got something more useful soon."
"I've got a couple bullets embedded in the wall." Hawkes chimed in. He sounded more optimistic than Stella.
"Danny said both he and Flack discharged their weapons. I all ready have both the guns. We could follow the shoe prints out of here, but most of the sidewalks have been cleared."
"Well, one of them probably had a bloody nose. Those drops would help us find them. I just hope they dropped anything else that could tell us where they went."
Mac wasn't really listening. He tried to think of something else that would come from the Tanglewood Boys. He remembered something important from the last case. Why hadn't he thought of that before?
"Also look for sawdust. Matt they were coming from the same bar Sassone stole the Mickey Mantle bat from."
Stella seemed surprised. "You never mentioned your nephew being in town before." She had met Matthew once before. Stella thought the kid was a little weird, but harmless. She knew part of the reason Mac hadn't bothered to try and contact him.
"He's been in New York for three years and doesn't even give me a call." The more Mac thought about it, the more it bugged him.
"Maybe you should just let it go. He was only sixteen when he did it. Teenagers do dumb things all the time." She was referring to an incident that had occurred a while back. Matt had done something both incredibly stupid and illegal. Mac still was amazed he had gotten away with it.
"Guys, I hate to interrupt, I found sawdust leading outside and away from where you tracked Danny." Hawkes told them.
"Great, work, Sheldon. Now, let's see if we can find these punks."
Back at the hospital, Flack had just gotten Matt's statement after the doctor had finished with him. The three of them were going to be stuck there all night. They were getting really bored, and they had bee there less than in hour.
Danny thought of something fun to try. He and Don and gotten away with it many times, and it was always a lot of fun. "Hey, do you guys want to have some wheelchair races?"
Matt grinned at him. "It sounds like fun." He just wanted to do something. When the coast was clear, they each found an empty wheelchair and screeched down the hall.
And straight into Lindsay Monroe.
The four them wound up on the floor. Lindsay was torn between screaming at the two thirty-year kids and Matt and at the same time she couldn't stop herself from laughing at the whole situation. "What is wrong with you guys?" she gasped.
"A lot of things. You're going to have to be more specific, Montana." Danny said.
"Get off me, cowboy."
"Ow, hey watch it, Messer." Danny had accidentally elbowed Don.
A/N: Sorry, got stuff to do. Will update again later. Thought I'd end this with a bit of humor. More on Matt and Mac later. Thanks. Please read and review.
