Chapter Five
"Jack, mate, what's going on? asked Bobby after they exited Trents house.
Jack stopped to take a deep breath, he glanced at everybody else before settling his sights back on Bobby, "Do you remember the married couple we were following a couple of years ago?"
"Yeah, mate," Bobby paused a moment so that his brain could catch up, "you and Sue went under cover about that time I believe." Then looked quizzically at Jack, "you mean…" and very discreetly spelled the guys name against his thigh.
Jack briefly glanced down at Bobby and then back up, and nodded his head.
Bobby started to boil with anger, but a restraining hand from his best friend kept it from getting out of control, "Crash, the girls and especially Trent's siblings don't need to see us upset, when we get back to Ranger Headquarters and a secure room, we can explain it then, then after that we can go down to their gym and blow off some steam but not here."
Bobby nodded. He knew Sparky was right but why now? Bobby was going to ask Tara to marry him but this just put a crimp in those plans. Bobby groaned inwardly this was going to be a long day.

Meanwhile across the driveway Gibbs had flipped his cell phone to call Abby, while gesturing for McGee to follow him to the trunk of the car.
"Abby," Gibbs said sternly, and about that time McGee had Abby on his laptop. Gibbs glanced down at the screen and bellowed Abby's name, who turned around to the computer screen, "I need you and Ducky to get flights to Dallas."
Abby raised an eyebrow at him.
"Something's hinky," Gibbs said to her while his gut was telling him something was going to happen and soon.
Abby saw his face and knew he was serious, "We'll be on the first flight out."
Gibbs reached over and ended the communication and sensed Ziva as well as Tony were by his side. He looked right at Ziva and handed her a piece of paper, "Found out about this guy."
Ziva nodded. She noticed from the look on Gibbs face and sighed, this investigation was going to grueling, yes that is the word, grueling in the truest form.
Chapter Six
Jack looked at Walker, when he came out of Trent's house, "We need to head back to Ranger Headquarters. My team and I need to brief your team as well as the NCIS team of what I found out."
Walker and Gage walked to his truck and headed out. While the other teams saw Walker leave, they gathered their supplies and headed out as well.
When Walker arrived a Ranger Headquarters, he asked Trivette to meet the teams from DC in the secure conference room. When they arrived, they were directed to the conference room.
As soon as everyone was either standing or sitting, keeping his face in line with Sue and Gage, he stared into his explanation, "When Trent went over the Corporal's body, he found among other things, a suicide bomb attached as well as plans to blow up a few things in Dallas as well as the DC area. These plans resembled what was done a few years ago but with a definite twist. He's using a unit of Marines, Jack Carson's unit to be precise. I've already told Agent Manning who it is."
Jack looked around the room, at their expected faces, and turned to see Sue, hoping she would fill in the blanks. By the look she was giving him, Sue knew who it was. Jack then looked at his mentor's face of 5 years, he has had two mentors in his life. One being Wes Kenner and the other being Leroy Jethro Gibbs. By the look on Gibbs face, Jack knew that he knew who it was. 'Now to drop a bomb,' he thought. "The guy we are after is Aref Dessa."
The room was interrupted by Sydney Cooke who opened the door, looking at Jack , she said, "Agent Gans is on line 2."
Putting the phone on speaker, Jack said, "Hudson."
"I'm on speaker, good. After I talked to you, Lucy and I were able to piece together, some info that we got from Director Shepard at NCIS, that Arif Dessa has a beef with one General Jack O'Neill, so he took his nephew's team."
Seeing that Jack, Gibbs and Walker jaws clench, Sue asked, "Who is the units CO, D?"
"The General's nephew, Jon O'Neill," there was a pause and then the three men heard a voice that they recognized all to well, "Where in tarnation is my nephew?"
