A/N: Thanks to everyone who read/reviewed. To address some concerns and comments:
Chappyfan: I have no plans to kill Chappelle, I love the character and his interactions with other characters, I was sad to see him go...so he's not leaving my story.
Mirel: Yes this story would be based sometime after season 5, sorry I didn't explain this before posting the first chapter.
StarvingStudent: I agree very much, there has been a serious decline in TM stories...so I had to write my own :D
TonyandMichelle4ever, TonyMichelleLoveYou, and Almeida-Lover: Thanks for the encouraging words; Please don't hate me after this chapter!
You all are so great and keep me writing! Now on with the story...
11:00am to 12:00pm
Tony is just coming through after the impact. Michelle next to him is coming through as well. Tony does his best to maneuver his SUV to the center of the road where only one of the two Chryslers is sitting, the other seems to have left. Cars do their best to drive carefully around them, most pretending not to look, despite their slowing speeds and obvious glances.
"You alright, Michelle?" Tony asks as he puts the car in park.
"Yeah I hit my head on the window, but I think I'm alright" The window next to Michelle has a circular point of impact where Michelle's head had hit. And the window had spidered out from the point leaving the window barley hanging on to its form. The air bag in front of her lay deflated and there is a small trickle of blood coming from her forehead just at her hair line. The blood flow is steadily increasing, but not at an alarming rate.
Tony sits in the drivers seat trying to get his head straight before getting out. The windshield in front of him is broken and his knuckles bloody from where they made impact when the air bag went off. Other then the bloody knuckles and shock, Tony is visibly fine.
As Tony opens his door the driver of the Chrysler is walking towards him. A man dressed in all black wearing dark black sunglasses. Tony glances at his SUV, the damage is mostly in the paint no real body damage at all. The damage to the Chrysler is more significant, but not major.
The driver of the Chrysler looks unfazed and unharmed by his attack on Tony's car. He approaches Tony with an air of confidence.
Michelle composes herself quickly and exits the SUV to apprise the damage as well. As she walks around the front of the Rover she smirks slightly to herself, amused by the lack of damage.
"Tony it does not look too bad, just get info and lets go, work is waiting on us." Michelle rounds the front of the Rover and stops at the wheel well.
"Hey Man, sorry. It was my fault." The driver starts in on his excuses before Tony can even say a word. The only thing Tony notices is the man's heavy Italian accent and him placing his hand in side of his coat, presumably going for the pocket, but it immediately makes Tony nervous.
"Michelle, get back in the Car, call work, let them know what happened." Tony, still facing the driver, tries to get Michelle out of the situation.
"What?" Michelle steps closer to Tony, trying desperately to hear him over the traffic.
Tony turns to repeat his statement to Michelle. Before he can talk the Driver pulls a silenced gun from under his jacket and shots two shots. One at Tony and one at Michelle, both go down with in a second of one another.
11:11am
"Kim, are the updates done?" Chloe asks as she pauses to gather some papers.
"Almost"
"Good, when you are done call Division, they need to talk to you" Chloe moves on before Kim can ask another question to annoy her.
"Hey Ryan I need your phone" Chloe follows Chappelle up the stairs to his office.
"I told you it was not me" Chappelle stops irritated on the top step.
"I know I know, I get it Ryan. I just want to use it, it will speed up my search for who accessed your account. I can do it without your phone but it will take me longer, but if you insist..."
"Fine! Here," He hands his phone to Chloe "I need it back immediately" Ryan enters his office before Chloe starts back in on her rambling.
11:14am
"Do we have all the numbers?" The Mystery Shooter in Black demanded to know.
"Just a few minutes, Geo, patience. This is well planned, you have to follow the rules."The tall man answered.
"Look Vin, I don't care that its well planned, I need to know we have them or all this is for not" Geo answered slowly.
"Yeah, it looks like we have them all. Thank you Mister Chappelle." Vin smiled to himself the printer next to him printing swiftyly, sheets and sheets of names, social security numbers, addresses, and phone numbers.
Geo's cell phone rings suddenly and he exits the room. Taking with him a single sheet of paper.
"Yeah?" Geo flips the phone open. "Ah, yes Mr Smith...Yes...yes...We have them...yes all of them...Well payment will be checked as soon as we are done here...yes...yes...I know...ready..?...Agent Jeremiah Anderson...seven-nine-two...one-six...four-nine-seven...currently in Spain with his wife and three children...yes...one-nine-two, Vista de Grama...Yes Mister Smith...very well" Geo hangs up the phone and goes to his lap top. His account summary is brought up instantly. There in the summary is a recent transfer of three-million nine thousand dollars from the bank of Spain.
"Did they pay?"Vin calls from the other room.
"Of course" Geo smiles
11:37 Spain
"Jeremiah, Dinner is ready. Lets go the kids are hungry" Patricia Anderson calls up the stairs to her husband. Who is working away in his office.
"Yeah, Im coming, I promise." He closes his note book and turns off his computer monitor. He walks quickly down the stairs and is greeted by his youngest child, a girl around two years old.
"DADDY! UP!" She squeals as she sees him.
"Hello Dani," He picks her up quickly and kisses her on the forehead. Then the two of them, him carrying her, walk into the dining room. Joining the rest of the family at the table. Jeremiah slides Dani, the only girl, into her highchair. His two boys are seated across from one another and his wife seats herself at one of the heads next to Dani and Jeremiah seats himself at the other head.
As food starts to be passed around the table, five very loud gun shots ring out simultaneously and all five of the Anderson's at the table slump over. Outside five men dressed in all black get up from the bushes, re-holster their weapons and get into a large black SUV and speed away. The window with the five bullet holes in it begins to spider and eventually comes crashing down in shards of broken glass.
11:49
Chloe O'Brien sits at her station scanning the information flow to and from Ryan Chappelle's phone trying to figure out how to break it to him that he had indeed been the one to read those emails and had simply forgotten it and wasted her time with this search.
"Chloe, what are you doing?" Chase Edmunds, Ex-field agent turned analyst, calls from his station to Chloe's.
"Tracking Ryan's cell phone usage, why?" Chloe asks bored
"Because I am updating the logs and I hit a wall" Chase replies still staring at his computer.
"You're doing the logs?" Chloe rolls her eyes.
"Yeah why?"
"Because Kim was supposed to be doing them" Chloe's irritation quickly turns to frustration,"where is she?"
"She had an errand to run. Its no big dead they are almost done"Chase responds trying to soften the blow to Kim later. He knows she is in trouble and just hopes that he can at least save her some of the headache that Chloe always seems to cause people when she is upset with them.
"Chase that's not the point. The point is that she has been..."Chloe is suddenly distracted, there is in an unfamiliar port on Chappelle's computer from his cell. A cloned port.
Someone else outside CTU had accessed CTU from that cloned port. CTU had been hacked.
Chloe jumps up from her station and starts running towards Chappelle's office.
"Chloe?..What?" Chase yells after her confused. Chloe ignores his yells.
11:53am
Tony and Michelle lay in the center divide. Two feet from one another, both bleeding excessively. Blocked from traffic on one side by a cement barricade and the other side by their own SUV. No one can seem them to help them.
Michelle stirs slightly. There is a car pulling in on the other side of the barricade. An LAPD squad car. The car slows to a stop and the officer exits, approaching the barricade.
"Dispatch? I have an abandoned SUV on northbound 405...hang on" The officer looks over the divide and notices Michelle and Tony laying there bleeding out. "Dispatch I need, back up and an ambulance to my location, there are two down"
"10-4 Sam one"
