Chapter 6:

When they neared the target building the crew chief SSGT Matt Darzi yelled in Kolt's ear, "TWO MINUTES TO TARGET. PASS THE WORD."

Kolt nodded as he did just that he grabbed the heavy fast rope and tossed it out the open door then he donned his padded leather gloves and made sure Kensi did the same. When he got the signal he yelled, "GO, GO, GO."

And with that his team slid down the rope. Right before he went he locked eyes with Madani and winked as he grabbed the rope and slid to the ground. The crew chief kicked the rest of the rope out and they watched as the chopper banked hard left and took off.

Kolt said as he hefted his 417, "Everybody remember the plan. Kens you and Trey find a good perch and go to work. While the rest of us take this building."

Kensi nodded as her and her spotter found a good perch and set up. Once they were set up she pulled the stock of 7.62X51MM Wilson combat Super Sniper into her shoulder. She peered into the ZEISS Conquest V6 5-30x50 and placed the illuminate reticle on a guard's chest and slowly squeezed the trigger. Trey said as he did the same with his 7.62X51MM M14 DMR. Within no time the two snipers had taken care of the guards and anyone that was out there. Kolt said, "You two keep watch for reinforcements or squirters."

Kensi nodded as they approached a heavy metal door. Kolt called, "Breacher get this damned door open."

Breacher stepped forward and pulled a 12 gauge Benelli M4 Tactical Shotgun and fired a series of M1030 breaching rounds at the hinges, door knob and door jam. Then he put the shotgun back in the scabbard on his back, kicked the door down and threw in a couple of flash bangs. When they detonated Kolt led his 3-man team down the stairs. Red lasers cut the dust and darkness as they searched for targets. They were still searching when Kolt's laser alighted on an Afghan reaching for his aging AK47. Kolt never gave him a chance to grab the weapon as he put a suppressed three round burst into his chest. Utilizing stealth techniques and noise discipline they killed all of the Afghanis in Yusef Ali's little army. They quickly located where Yusef Ali and Karaganov were holed up. And Breacher repeated the process that he had don on the metal door. As soon as the flash bang detonated Kolt and his boys were through the door and had both the targets on the floor bagged and zip tied. Then they hightailed back to the roof and called Gallo. When the chopper pilot answered Kolt said as Buckshot threw a green smoke grenade, "We're ready for our ride Tex."

Gallo said as he banked the chopper to the right and headed back toward the warehouse, "I see green smoke."

Kolt quipped, "Fanfuckingtastic Tex. Now get your ass here."

Gallo chuckled as he said sarcastically, "How can I turn down such an inviting offer."

Kolt laughed as he stuck a pinch of dip in his cheek. When the chopper pulled up alongside the roof Kolt chucked both the prisoners into the chopper the he and his team hopped aboard. Once they were all aboard Gallo said, "Thank you for using Shadow Raider Air; we know you have many choices when you are flying and we would like to extend a very warm thank you. Now put your tray tables and seat backs in an upright position because here we go."

Kolt chuckled as Buckshot asked is this a nonsmoking Black Hawk?"

Gallo replied, "Smoke em if ya got em."

Buckshot grinned as he handed everyone with the exception of Kensi and Madani a cigar and said, "Now time for the victory dance."

Kolt spat his dip out of the open door as he yelled, "HELL YEAH."

His invective was echoed by everyone else aboard as the men all lit up. He glanced over at Kensi as he said, "You did good little sister, I'm very proud of you and Dad would be too."

Kensi leaned over and hugged him as she whispered, "Thanks Big brother."

Trey asked once the siblings broke apart, "Where did you learn to shoot like that?"

Kensi said with pride in her voice as the Black Hawk neared the base, "From my Dad and Kolt."

Bushmaster asked, "Your dad was Don Blye Right?"

At Kensi's nod Gallo said, "I knew him he was one helluva operator. He'd be proud of you two."

Kensi thanked him as the chopper set down. She saw much to her delight Gibbs and Deeks were waiting for them. When she hopped out Deeks ran over to her and scooped her up into his arms as he asked, "How did my little ninja do?"

Kolt replied as he and his team joined them, "She did great."

Gibbs came forward and took Karaganov from Breacher and loaded him into the back of the charger and said before he drove off, "You did good Ranger."

Kolt nodded his thanks as Buckshot and Bushmaster manhandled Ali into a Humvee and tossed Deeks the keys as he said, "Here you go. Now get this murderin piece of shit outta here."

Both Kensi and Deeks nodded as they hopped into the Humvee and headed for Langley. Once they were Kolt sent his team to get cleaned up and to clean their gear. Before he could leave COL Haskins walked up and said, "Once you get everything squared away I'd like a word."

Kolt nodded as he said, "Yes sir."

And with he went to get cleaned up as well.

What do you think Haskins wants to talk to Kolt about
