Paths to Vengeance

Chapter 27 plans and arguments

Authors notes I don't own Mass Effect Bioware does and this fic is a slight crossover with the film War, just so you all know.

Also I recommend that all my readers check out the fics written by Angels Anthem, Appa Appa Away, LongLiveThe Clones, XxheavendragonxX, Aurora Lunar 0Love This0, Icehockeychic4 and Canadiancloneluver as they are seven of the best writers on this site in my opinion. And please if you read this fic let me know what you think of it good or bad comments let me know as I want your opinions on it.

I recommend that all of my readers have a look at the work written by Guardian Kitch as the work that author has written is very, very good. Lastly I hope this chapter males up or the wait since chapter 26 was uploaded.

Terminus Organized Crime Unit office Earth

As Crawford and Danny entered the office they walked over to the desk of the newest team member Kono Lao, transferred from the New York police department due to his knowledge of hacking and getting surveillance as well as going after the Roma 1 Mafia for the last 7 years in New York as a result he knew more about their criminal activates on Earth then anyone else alive.

And as Kono saw them coming over to him he said "I've looked over all the surveillance footage from Jamitr's abduction on the Citadel, I've gotten the ID of the vehicle used by the Roma 1 Mafia, and we now know it belongs to a Sergio Salazar, a low level member of Roma 1, arrested twice, once on Mars for drug processing and the other for driving a stolen car, and we know where he is now. He is at the Triple Ace Club, known hangout for Roma 1 members".

As Crawford and Danny were given the address of the club they contacted Razicu and told him to meet them there.

Half hour later Triple Ace Club

When Sergio Salazar walked out of the club he heard his voice being called out and saw members of the Terminus Organized Crime Unit approach him. And as he ran back inside the club heading towards the back exit a human knocked him to the ground and as he was thrown against the wall the human yelled out "Where is Jamitr Keilandu?".

Sergio pretended to not know what they were talking about and said "Who?". Crawford's response was to throw the man onto his parked car as he yelled out "Where?".

Sergio answered "I don't know what you are all talking about". Danny then said "We got you on tape helping abduct him. Your finish and your looking at life imprisonment or death".

Razicu only angrily said "Tell us what you know right now!". Sergio replied "I'm not telling you anything at all, I want my lawyer".

Razicu then said "Is that so, well you cant have 1" he punched Sergio in the face and as Danny took Sergio to the car another member of the taskforce asked "So we're going to bring the police in on this right Crawford, offer him a deal?".

Crawford shook his head and said "We turn him in and he'll never betray Radcliff. After all remember the last man who did, ended up in shark infested waters died in mere seconds. We'll turn him over to the Carleone family on Mars. They are at war with Roma 1 so helping us means hurting him".

The man was in shock and said "Look I want to get Jamitr back as much as you all do but Crawford your talking about breaking the law. We do this and the Carleone family will kill Sergio".

Danny then said "We don't know that Jim. Besides doing this is the only way we can get Jamitr back alive, don't want to help then go back to the office and wait like a good little boy until we're done".

As Jim walked off Danny, Crawford and Razicu planned what to do next.

The Normandy

As Kasumi and Rogue arrived back on the Normandy they saw Shepard was talking to the Justicar Samara after he recruited her to join the team. And when they went to Kasumi's quarters to get a drink Kasumi said "What were you doing at that bar anyway Rogue?".

The assassin answered "I was there to get Vorleon to help me deal with the Sederis family, with him dead I'll now have to rethink my plan". Kasumi nodded and asked "How can I help?". With that Rogue knew he had what to do next.

Mars Lowell City

As Crawford and Danny were about to enter the restaurant a foot solder of the Carleone mafia walked over to them and said "You guys have to leave your guns here before we let you inside" at that point another man walked over to the foot soldier and whispered in his ear, after that he said to Crawford and Danny "Never mind, follow me gentlemen".

They were then escorted to into the building where they saw the leader of the Carleone family Ziro Carleone waiting for them, he smiled as he saw them and said to his men "Let them in please, Marco. Some wine please".

Crawford then said "The drink isn't necessary, Ziro we wont be here long". As Crawford and Danny sat down across from Ziro Danny said "You have a lot of foot soldiers here Ziro".

The man shrugged as he said "You may have heard I'm in a business dispute with Henry Radcliff".

Crawford then said "We heard Radcliff has offered 8 million credits for your head. Maybe you shouldn't have killed his wife and son in that car accident".

Ziro looked at Danny as he said "Your friend has a very funny way of asking me from my help". Crawford then said "If you don't help us Ziro, It'll become your problem, Once the word gets out that a member of a Citadel Council approved taskforce against organized crime has been abducted by a human mafia group, it'll become your problem Ziro".

Danny nodded in agreement as he said "It'll bring down a lot of heat on all the mafia's, it'll cost you millions".

Ziro nodded and asked "What do you need from me?".

Crawford answered "Information" as he lead Ziro to his car and opened the back of the vehicle they showed him Sergio tied up as the foot soldier of the Roma 1 Mafia looked at Ziro Carleone with fear evident in his eyes, Crawford said to Ziro "Give me a call when he talks".

Ziro smiled and walked off as he his own men grabbed Sergio and brought him into the restaurant while Crawford and Danny drove off.
