(Chapter-45)

A few days later Kinsey was standing in a tent that was now his Command Center looking at four men, "I hired you men because I was told you'll do a job with no questions asked." The older of the men nodded and pulled a cigar from his mouth, "Just as long as it's with in reason." Kinsey crossed his arms, "How does twenty million reasons sound?" The older man smiled, "Twenty million sound like a perfect reason, what do you want done."

Kinsey smiled, "My daughters were taken into this religious compound with their daughters, I want you to get them out. I hired more men to help you if you need them, just tell me what you need and I'll get it." The older of the men nodded, "First, I want you to find out if there's any delieveries going into the place. Second, I need to know what kind of protection they have around that place." Kinsey nodded, "Done."

The older man looked at the other three, "Face, Murdock, B.A. I want you three to case the joint and see what they have in security technology." Murdock nodded, "You got it Colonel." Smith turned back to Kinsey, "Sorry about that, it just that some findings leave out a few details. So we like to have a look around and see what they have for ourselves." A moment later a young privet walked up, "Here's the delievery infromation you wanted sir."

Kinsey nodded and took the papers, "it seems that they have several delieveries today. U.S. mail..." Smith looked up, "We don't mess with the mail service." Kinsey nodded, "I was about to say that you shouldn't mess with it." Kinsey continues looking, "They also have a fresh produce, meat, and dairy delievery. They have a delievery from a package service at three tomorrow." Smith looked up, "Let me see that one?" Smith looked at the infromation, "It's a package from Stark Enterprises."

Smith checked the delievery company, "It's being delievered by S.P.D.S. (Sunnydale Package Delievery Service)." Smith nodded, "This is how we'll get in for a quick recon." A few moments later the other three walked back in, The large black guy looked at Murdock, "Get off me fool, before I use you as a plug for one of those water cannons." Smith turned, "What have ya found?"

B.A. Looked at Smith, "This place is like a fortress Hannibal, they have water cannon monitors all around the place, as for security cameras it all basic stuff. But what has me baffield is the protective shielding around the place, these shields are something out of a scifi movie." Kinsey nodded, "A lot of their security messures are from the future, these religous freaks have the ability to time travel."

Peck looked at Kinsey, "Wait a minute, I happen to have graduated from M.I.T. and I know time travel is impossible." Kinsey smiled, "Mr. Peck, you're going to find out real soon that these bi...women are the patron saints of the impossible." Smith looked at Murdock, "Murdock I want you to take over the delievery of a package coming to this place by S.P.D.S." Murdock, "Once inside you want a quick visual recon?" Smith nodded, "Get in and get out." B.A. Sighed and looked at Murdock, "Crazy Fool."

In the school the 'Scooby Gang' were having some fun in the dinning room when Hermione walked in, "Hey Faith, you're needed in the Command Center." A few minutes later the 'Scooby Gang' was in the Command Center looking at the main screen. Hermione looked up, but before she could speek Faith looked around, "Where's your better half?" Hermione blushed, "It's that time of month." Faith smiled, "No need to say more, now what have ya got?"

Hermione looked at the screen, "A few minutes ago three men cased the walls of the school the black man counted the water monitor cannons and found out that we're surrounded by a shield. The other two checked out what type of cameras we had." Shego walked to the main screen, "Bring up their faces again?" Hermione did a bit of typing and showed their faces. Shego smiled, "I know who these guys are." Faith smiled, "So do I." Kim raised an eyebrow, "Who are they?"

Shego smiled, "The blach man is Sergeant Bosco 'B.A.' Baracus, the more good looking one is Lieutenant Templeton 'Faceman' Peck, and the third one is Captain H.M. 'Howling Mad' Murdock. And their leader is Colonel John 'Hannible' Smith." Faith smiled, "They are the legendary A-Team." Kim was in awe, "I thought they were sent to prison after the Gulf War?"

Faith smiled, "They were, but they escaped so they could clear their names. Now they take odd jobs here and there while they try to clear theIr names for a crime they never commited." Shego crossed her arms, "They were chased for the first year after their escape by the Stockade's Commanding officer Colonel Lynch. When he couldn't get 'em, the Army sent in Colonel Roderick Decker."

Kim smiled, "And he hasn't caught them yet either?" Shego shook her head, "No but he does have a respect for the team Smith in particular, for their ingenuity and teamwork." Jules looked at the screen, "Why would they be casing the school?" Faith looked at the screen, "My gut tells me it's Kinsey who hired them." Shego nodded, "And you can be asured Kinsey hasn't told them the truth." Kim looked at the screen, "I say we try and contact them for a one on one meeting."

Faith looked at Kim, "You have given me an idea, if we can get in contact with the A-Team, then we can let Colonel Smith know who hired him." Shego nodded, "I think I know how to make contact with the A-Team, but it'll take a couple of hours to pull off." Faith smiled, "Go for it girl." Faith smiled as she looked at the main screen, "In the mean time, lets move our security alert up to condition-two. I want to be ready if something happens."

The next day The 'Scooby Gang' was back in the Command Center watching Shego do her magic on the computer, "During the night I was reading 'Soldier Of Fortune' and it had an E-Mail address to write to if someone needed to contact the A-Team. I traced it to a Chinese Laundry belonging to a Mr. Chang. I left a message and a place to meet, all we have to do is wait for a responce." Faith nodded, "How long will that take?" Shego shrugged her shoulders, "It can be between now an..."

Just as Shego was about to finish her sentance she got a reply to her e-mail. Shego leaned foward, "Damn that was fast. They agree to meet us." A moment later Rachael turned, "We have a delievery from Stark Enterprises at the gate." Faith looked at Rachael, "On screen." Faith smiled as she seen who was making the delievery, "Let 'em in, but be careful." Shego smiled at the person, "Howlin' Mad Murdock." Faith nodded, "Must be doin' a quick recon."

Kim looked at Faith, "Aren't you worried that he might try something?" Faith shook her head, "No, he won't do anything without the others help. However when he unloads the packages and leaves, I want everything scanned for listening devices." Faith looked at the others, "In the mean time me and Shego will be meeting with Smith." Buffy stood, "You are taking some back-up with you." Faith shook her head, "Can't chance it."

An hour later Faith and Shego were at the prearranged meeting sight. Faith looked at Shego, "Are you sure they'll be here?" Shego nodded, "Mr Chang said that Smith will be here." A few minutes later the two girls walked into the old warehouse Faith's hands were just itchin' to grab her twin guns when they heard a voice, "That's far enough, B.A. take her guns." Faith looked at B.A., "Ya touch the guns and you die."

Hannibal raised a hand, "Never mind B.A., if she was gonna use them she would have the moment we appeared." Hannibal lit his cigar, "Now, Mr. Chang said you needed the A-Team." Faith looked at Hannibal, "What we need is for you to listen." Hannibal blew out some smoke, "Alright, I'm listening." Shego crossed her arms, "I know you like to keep your client's name a secret, but is this the man who hired you?"

Hannibal looked at the picture, "Yea it is, that's Mr. Robert Preston. He's hired us to rescue his two daughters and grandchildren from your cult." Faith pulled another picture out, "Do you know who this is?" Smith grinned, "Of course, that's Mr Preston." Faith pulled another picture out, "And this one?" Hannibal snorted some smoke through his nose, "Again that's Mr. Preston."

Shego took all three pictures, "The person you identified as one Mr. Robert Preston is realy former Senator and former Vice President Robert Kinsey." Shego pulled out a picture of Kinsey and the President together after their election victory, "You're being paid by a man to retrieve four people who is of no relation to him." Peck looked at the pictures sighed, "She's right Hannibal, this is Former Senator and Former Vice President Robert Kinsey. How could have I missed it."

Hannibal looked at Peck, "Don't blame yourself Face, we been out of the loop for so long we all forgot what he looked like." Face nodded, "But I still should have seen it when I did the background check." Hannibal looked at Faith, "Since he isn't related to the girls he want out of there, then why does he want them.?"

Shego crossed her arms, "That's a long story plus it's classified." Hannibal took a puff off his cigar, "Then just who are the girls he wants?" Shego smiled, "He wants me, my girlfriend who is also a mutant and our daughters." Hannibal blew out some smoke, "Why does he want a pair of mutants and their daughters?" Shego shook her head, "Again the story is a long story, and it's classified." Hannibal nodded, "Then tell me this, does it have to do with your mutant powers?" Shego thought for a moment, "In part."

Murdock, "Just wat are your powers?" Shego smiled, "My power is being able to produce green plasma fire, my girlfriend Kim, her power is the same as mine. The only difference is she produces red plasma fire and she's red in color." Hannibal took a puff on his cigar, "As of now our contract with the good Mr. Preston AKA: Robert Kinsey is terminated." Faith smiled, "You're welcome to hold up at the school if you like?"

Hannibal nodded, "Face, Murdock Load up the van, make sure you leave nothing behind except the usual sign for Decker." B.A. shook his head, "I hate it when he leaves that message." Faith smiled, "Why?" B.A. looked at Faith, "It means he's on the jazz." Faith smiled, "What's the jazz?" Murdock smiled, "It means pretty ladie, we'll be seeing some action soon."
