Here we are, chapter 3 :) Some of you weren't happy with the style or with my grammar mistakes. I tried to improve it here and hope you'll be happy with it. As always, don't hesitate to review.
''Eric, I've got a lead. I need you to check all Kensi's mother phone calls. I want you and Nell to verify if any numbers match some of Kensi's phone. Nope, don't tell anything to Hetty.''
He took some tools to pick up the door lock in his car and went back to Kensi's mother house and decided to start visiting the garden, behind the house and check if he could see any van's tracks. The grass had just been cut some days ago. He walked in the garden, hoping to find anything that could help them find Kensi.
His phone rang, it was Eric :
''Yes Eric ?''
''Nell found something, I put her on speakerphone.''
''We checked the numbers that Kensi's mother called and the ones that called her, then we compared them with the one in Kensi's phone. And we found a match.''
''Ok, tell me, who is it ? Do we know it ?''
''The number belongs to Alvaro Ramirez. 3 months in prison for minor stealing, some violence against cops... But nothing that could explain why he decided to make Kensi and her mother disappear.''
Deeks stiffened. He stood silent for some seconds then said he wanted them to check if he had any connections with Gardiola Ramirez. Eric told him they would call him at the end of their research.
He thanked them and went back to the garden. Everything was clear, no van's tracks or anything that could help him. He decided to go in the house. He crouched in front of the door and picked the lock up in less than 10 seconds.
In the house, everything seemed to be normal. Nothing was broken, there was roses on the table of the living room, some mail too. He went to the first floor but didn't notice anything strange.
He entered a little room, in which there was Kensi's mother computer. He plugged an usb wifi transmitter and called Nell.
''Nell, it's me, Deeks. I plugged the transmitter to Kensi's mother computer. Can you upload her data and check if there's anything strange in her e-mails of documents ? Ok, thank you ! And, did you find anything between Alvaro and Gardiola Ramirez ?''
'' Not yet, but who is Gardiola Ramirez ?''
''i'll explain it to you as soon as i'll be back from Kensi's mother house. See you.'' He stopped the call, unplugged the transmitter and decided to left the house. But before leaving, he went to the bedroom.
There was no missing clothes, suitcases was there, empty. He didn't have the feeling that his partner's mother had leave for vacations. He went to the garage, it was empty too. He sent an sms to Eric to ask them if they could verify if Kensi's mother car had been found in the last days. It was a white Camaro.
During the time when Deeks was at the house, Callen and Sam received the list from the garages that mounted the tires matching the tracks where Kensi's car had been found.
''Eric, can you please send us the address of the garage on the list you just received ? We'll try to see if any of them work on a van from Green Space Ent.''
''Ok, sending it to your phones right now. It shouldn't be too long, there is only 8 garages. It seems like the tires are not really common.''
''Ok, thank you Eric, answered Callen, looking at his phone. Most of the garage are at the other extremity of the city. We should go now.''
''Hum, maybe you should stay. Started Nell, a little bit confused. Deeks called us before, and told us he had a lead. He asked us to check some phone numbers and it seems like one of the numbers is both on Kensi's mother phone and on Kensi's.''
''And can we find this number in the call list of last night, asked Sam.''
''Yes, it seems to be the last number Kensi received a call from. Said Eric. We have a name for the owner of the phone but we don't know who he is at all.''
''But I know, said Deeks, walking through the doors.''
''And we would really appreciate if you could light our way and explain us, said Hetty.''
''Ok... Before I started working with you, I used to work only for LAPD. I once had to work on a drugs case. There was a big drugs trafic between Mexico and the USA. The chief of all this, we could even say the master, considering the power he had on his men, was a mexican named Gardiola Ramirez. I put him into jail, where he died some years ago. He had a son, I don't know his name but...''
''But you think Alvaro Ramirez could be his son, right ? Said Nell.''
''Yes, that's what I think. But I don't understand how and why he met Kensi and why he kidnapped her and her mother.''
''He maybe wanted to make you pay ? Suggested Sam. Pay for the fact that you and the LAPD broke their business and made them lose a lot of money.''
''The is a very good idea, Mr Hanna. But we now need to be sure we're on the good lead. Mr Callen and you will please go to check the garage list Eric gave you. Mr Deeks, I'd like you to stay here and work with Eric and Nell about the connections that could exist between this man you put into jail and Alvaro Ramirez.''
They did what Hetty asked them. Callen and Sam had left for maybe an hour when Nel shouted out loud :
'' Guys, guys come here ! We've got a gps signal from Kensi's phone !''
Eric and Deeks ran next to her. The signal was not very strong, but strong enough to identify the position of the phone. The phone was at the other extremity of the city.
Hetty asked Eric to call Sam and Callen. They were leaving the third garage they went to when Callen's phone rang.
''Yes Eric ?''
''Mr Callen, this is Hetty. I want you to go to the address that Eric will send on you phone. We just got a GPS signal from Miss Blye's phone.''
When then heard that, Sam and Callen looked at each other with a glimmer of hope.
''Mr Deeks and some backups will meet you there. We don't know what we'll find, so you have to be very very carefull. Let's bring her back.''
The address was located in a work area that seemed to have been abandonned. Callen, Sam and Deeks hid the car some meters before the buildings. The put on their vest, took their gun, verified their equipment then activated their audio support with Eric and Nell.
''Ok Eric, here we are, said Deeks. The backups are located around the buildings, on the rooftops and on the floor, ready to enter the action, if needed. We'll need you to tell us where to go.''
''Ok, you should see a big door, a few meters away from you. Do you see it ?''
''Yes, said Callen. We can see it.'' He made a sign to Deeks and Sam. They walked to the door, taking care of any sound and any light. The opened the door calmly and entered the building.
Eric told them they had to reach the fifth floor and that Kensi and her mother should be in one of the room.
''Eric, can you tell us if you have any thermal signature ?'' Sam wanted to be sure they wouldn't have to face too many opponents.
''There is, there is no thermal signature, Sam, answered Nell. We can see you and the rest of the NCIS agents but that's all.''
'' What do you mean, that's all ? Said Deeks. You still have the gps signal, don't you ?''
''Yes we do but we don't have any thermal signature, I swear.''
''Ok, tell me where the phone is. Can sam and Callen take the other staircase, the one on the left ?''
''yes, we will guide you.''
Deeks looked at his two partners, made a head check and took the staircase on the right. It was difficult to see something, there was no light, the atmosphere was quite dark and they didn't use any flashlight, to avoid being discovered.
They arrived in front of the door that Eric designated. Sam made a few steps back then hit the door with his feet. They entered the room.
''NCIS, FEDERAL AGENT. Clear...'' Deeks had entered the room first. He put his gun down and looked at the table in front of them. The phone was on it.
''The phone is here, said Callen, but they're gone.''
''Ok, please come back to the precinct, Nell and Eric will look if they can find anything.''
Sam and Callen were leaving the room when Deeks called them.
''Guys, come here. There a letter.''
Callen took it from Deeks hands and read it.
''Deeks, it's for you.'' said Sam, handing it to his colleague.
Deeks took the paper and read '' Good start, you found the phone. But the girls and I are somewhere else. I'll contact you later to tell you the rules of the game. See you soon, Marty.''
Deeks was furious, almost uncontrollable when they reached the precinct. When they was on the road back to the precinct, Nell and Eric had find a connection between the two Ramirez.
'' Your idea was right, Deeks. Alvaro Ramirez is Gardiola Ramirez's son. And all our case certainly finds its roots in the case you worked on with LAPD.''
''But, said Sam, We did he kidnapped Kensi and her mother ? What is the connection with that old case ?''
''I am the connection, Sam. When I put his father into jail, Ramirez told me he would make me pay for that. He decided to include Kensi because he knew... He knew I would care.''
He had just finished his sentence when Kensi's phone rang.
''Mr Beale, be ready to track the call. Mr Deeks, try to make him talk as much as possible.''
Everyone in the room stood silent when Deeks took the call.
''Deeks.''
''hey Marty. I can see that you found the phone. I hope you're not to disappointed to see that your girlfriend wasn't there. She prefers my company.''
''How is she, Ramirez ? Is she ok ?''
Eric made a sign with his hand to Deeks, to make him understand he needed Ramirez to talk more, in order to locate where the call was from.
''Don't worry about her. I will tell you the rules of my game.''
''I don't play any game. You don't decide. You're like your father. You think you can make people act like you want. But I'm not that kind of guy.''
''If you want to see your girlfriend back, you'll have to follow the rules.''
"Listen to me. If you want to mess with me, or with my team, just think about the consequences. I'll hunt, i'll find you. I'll make you're life a living hell if you touch the one I love."
''I'm happy to see that you're still that silly LAPD cop who thinks he can always break the rules. This time, it won't work. I'll call you later, Marty.''
And this is the end for now :) So, what do you guys think about all this?
