Chapter 11
Sam ran out but stopped right in his tracks when he was met by Justin standing there shaking his head.
"Good luck getting past me." He said holding a gun up aimed directly at Sam's head.
Sam looked back seeing his sister and Marley standing there before shooting them a sad smile, he nodded to Stacey letting her know to leave immediately. He looked back at Justin and sighed.
He had plenty of guns pointed at his head before but his advantage was that he had one pointing back. He shook his head realizing that this would be the moment he died, right after finding what was possibly the best woman he'd ever met and he didn't get the chance to tell her that he was falling for her.
"Shit." He said under his breath. He knew for fact that she was going to kill him for being killed and couldn't help chuckling.
"What's so fucking funny?" Justin asked, taking him away from his thoughts.
Sam looked at him and chuckled again. "You know, you killing me scares me a hell of a lot less than what's going to happen when Mercedes finds out! Ha! She's gonna kick my ass…" He replied, shaking his head and laughing harder.
Justin looked at him confused. "Yeah, well at least it won't hurt after I kill you."
Sam continued to laugh. "I've been doing this job for… shit my whole life and all it took was some cute school teacher make me fuck up. You know she fought me for trying to save her? Feisty little thing but those tiny fists hurt!"
"Yeah well, I know and that's why she's next." He said moving closer to Sam adjusting his gun. Sam caught his wording and narrowed his eyes on him.
"She's dead." Sam clarified and Justin smirked.
"You really think MIke Chang was the only person I had on her? You might want to be more careful with who you sleep with." Justin said with a devious grin.
Sam took a minute before realizing that if he knew Mercedes was alive then that meant they knew Mike lied and that meant Mike and TIna were now in danger. Sam needed to think of something fast but he was sure he'd have enough time.
"I see you're working everything out now. Your little sleepovers with a particular blonde weren't only beneficial to you. It's always good to have someone on the inside and she was the perfect and easiest person to turn. Something about her wanting revenge, bitches you know?"
Sam tensed immediately. "Quinn… fucking bitch!" He started to move forward but Justin cocked his gun and shook his head.
"I feel like we've talked long enough, any last words?"
"I've got a few!" They heard and looked over to where the voice was coming from, Sam immediately groaned and threw his head back.
"Well I guess tonight's my lucky night!" Justin said. "Get to kill the both of you."
"I told you to stay at the hotel!" Sam said, shaking his head.
Mercedes threw her hands up angrily. "And I told you I wanted to come, so I'm here!" She snapped back and Sam moved closer to her making sure to keep his eye on Justin.
"But we had an agreement and you were to stay at the hotel where it was safe!"
"Yeah, well I lied and from the looks of things you need me here to help you." She replied taking a step closer to him
"Oh how cute a lovers' quarrel, okay I'm-"
"Dude, just give me a minute okay? She's hard at listening and following directions so wait." Sam interrupted before turning his attention to Mercedes. "You had ONE job and that was to keep your ass in the hotel until my parents arrived, now they're going to think I failed my entire mission and what's worse he's gonna kill us both now."
Mercedes stomped over to Sam, squaring up at him. "You did fail your mission because your job was to protect me so if I die, it's literally because you couldn't do your job correctly!"
Sam narrowed his eyes at her before pulling her close. "If you die it's because I missed." He said before quickly pulling the gun that was pushed into her back pocket, turning and firing two shots straight at Justin. One hit directly into his shooting hand and the other into his left knee, causing him to fall down.
Sam ran over and kicked the gun out of reach. 'Did you do what I told you to do?" He asked looking over at Mercedes who nodded.
"Yes, your parents and their team should be arriving in a few moments." She replied pulling out the tracker Sam gave her before they put her in the trunk.
He'd tried to get her to stay but she kept refusing and he knew she would just find a way to get to them so they came up with a back up plan. Her tracker would go off the minute they arrived at their destination which would alert the FBI and his parents. He also gave her two guns, one for him and one for his sister, she was to leave it in the car with a note attached on where to go once they got out of the compound.
Justin groaned as Mike made his way toward's them. "Sam, Mercedes are you guys okay?"
"Yeah." Sam said looking down to Justin and back to Mike. "You need to call Tina and tell her to meet us at the safe location. And you get going now, Mercedes and I will be right behind you."
Mike smirked. "She's already there, I had a feeling he wasn't going to believe me about Mercedes."
"I want to say I can't believe Quinn would do this, but the truth is, that woman was always a little too untrustworthy to me." Sam said, running his hands through his hair.
"Give me five minutes with her, I have some choice words." Mercedes spat.
"Down girl, we need to get you to the safe house as well."
Mike looked at Justin. "What are we gonna do with him? Most of his guys ran, the ones I took down are not getting back up any time soon."
Sam looked at his watch. "My parents should be here soon, we'll leave him with the rest of the trash."
"You think this is over? It's far from over." Justin said, groaning again as he tried to move. "She will never be safe. As long as I am alive she will always have a target on her back." He laughed before coughing and groaning.
Sam moved towards him but Mercedes held him. "Sam, stop. He's not worth it. We said we weren't gonna kill anymore unless we had to. The police will be here soon, let them take care of him."
Sam growled angrily as Mercedes and Mike led them to the car.
"Lets get to the safe house, or do we have to wait here?" Mercedes asked.
Sam looked over to Justin. "Mike I need you to take Mercedes to the safe house, I will wait here for everyone."
Mercedes moved to Sam. "No! I am not leaving you! We are a team, in this together!"
"Mercedes I let you come here, but that was the last compromise I am going to make. Get in the car, let Mike take you to the safe house, Or I promise you I will cuff you and toss your ass in that car!"
"Oh then you better get the damn cuffs because if you think I am gon-" Sam cut her off, pulling her too him and kissing her deeply, his hand gripped her hair as the other held her body closer to him.
After a few moments his forehead met with hers. "Please, just go, I will be there as soon as I can. I have a job to do and I can't do it if I am worried about you. It's not that I don't think you are capable. I know you are. It's that I need you at the safe house, with Tina and my sister there you will need to tell them what is going on."
Mercedes stared at Sam, then kissed him just as fiercely as he kissed her, running her tongue along the seam of his lips, tangling her tongue with his before pulling away.
"On one condition. You let Mike stay with you. Justin's been shot, no one is following me, so I can go alone, but someone could come back, two of you are stronger together.
Sam hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. "Fine. We have an unmarked car parked down the street, take it and use the GPS to take you to the safe house. It's about an hour away. I will get there as soon as I can."
"You better, seeing you all FBI and sexy has me wanting to take you to the back seat and ride you into the sunset." She giggled. Sam kissed her before handing her the keys and watching her back as she ran towards the car.
Once she was in and driving off he looked at Mike. "Let's get out of sight until the others come. Just in case."
"Good idea…you sure she will be fine alone?" Mike asked.
Sam sighed looking over to the car in the distance. "She's proven she can take care of herself, so I have faith in her."
Mike chuckled. "Yeah, I saw her in action but if you want, I can handle this. I remember wanting to get to Tina after missions."
"No, I need to be here, plus I have a tracker on the car so if anything happens I will know." Sam said as they moved to the second car hidden and out of sight.
Sam glanced down to his tracker, seeing Mercedes making good time, he looked back up to see two SUV's pulling up.
"Are they yours?" Mike asked.
Sam shook his head. "No. They gotta be Tres, they are going right for Justin."
"We need to get out of sight." Mike said, looking in the back for whatever weapons they had. "We only have so many rounds and we have to be smart. Once I get up high enough, you're gonna be alone on the ground until whoever you notified shows up."
Sam nodded. "We got Justin down, we just need to get Ken then Mercedes will be safe from this fucked up shit."
Mike sighed. "She won't be able to go on if you're not with her so don't do something stupid and force me to save your ass." Mike responded, loading his gun before looking over at him. "I'm serious, don't fucking die otherwise I'll have to marry her and be a polygamous."
Sam chuckled. "You make it sound so horrible." He joked.
Mike thought it over before smirking. "Maybe I should let you die, Mercedes is sexy and Tina's kinda into that stuff so who wouldn't want two women fawning over them."
Sam punched Mike in the arm, shaking his head. "Mercedes Jones is off limits to any man other than me."
Mike rolled his eyes. "Then act like it, I'll be up in the tower on the far right. I'll hit you with a beam when I'm in place… don't move until you see the beam." He said getting out of the car and running along the shadows to stay hidden.
Sam got out of the car and stayed in view of Mike's eye but out of sight of the rolling black SUV's, he counted and assessed that there were six trucks and everyone started to file out. He spotted Ken first and a few of his security, he ran over to where they left Justin on the ground before seeing a red flash catch his eye. It was Mike letting him know that he was in position and giving him to go ahead to proceed. Sam started to move but stopped when another car pulled up. It was a black town car and from what he could see there were three people in the back, four in total counting the driver.
He moved back and waited for whoever it was to exit the car, first was an older man followed by an older woman. He couldn't make out their faces and moved closer to try to get a better look before stopping in his tracks when the last person stepped out. It was a woman, Quinn. He looked on in shock, watching her walk over to where Ken and Justin were before she brought her hand up and slapped them both.
"You had one fucking job!" She spat and Sam found himself moving closer to hear more. "You were supposed to kill the girl and Sam!"
Justin winced. "We tried! Evans had help and she's going to be dead soon, I have someone on her right now."
Quinn let out an annoyed breath. "You were supposed to kill them both at the same time! If you kill her without him present he will come after everyone! I've been on them for years and I know how he works when he's properly motivated… he will burn us all!"
"Then you should've thought better than this asinine plan of yours Quinnie." The older woman said, approaching her. "I thought we taught you better than this."
"I told you she wasn't ready." The older man said. "If she would have kept Evans under her thumb none of this would be happening."
Quinn rolled her eyes. "I'm standing right here and I have Sam under my thumb, that bithc just spread her legs for him and he got distracted. She will be taken care of by me and me alone, as for the rest of you we have several shipments that need to get out so get it done now!"
"I need a hospital!" Justin whined and Quinn looked at him with furrowed brows before pulling out a small gun and shooting his left foot.
"Do you still need one?" She asked and Justin groaned in pain but didn't say anything. "Didn't think so. As for you Ken, why are we just now being made aware of your connections to the Jones family?"
Ken looked around before clearing his throat. "We needed the best lawyers so-" He started before Quinn shot his upper right leg causing him to fall to the ground, yelling out in pain.
"Your job was purely ornamental, you were only to be the face of my family's operation and now everyone seems to think you, of all people run this business. Which is funny because we never gave the order for you to seek out a lawyer let alone two of the best in the country. Two of the most protected and sought out lawyers and now we have to kill their daughter."
"Quinnie if you keep shooting people, there will be no one less to finish the job." Her mother spoke and Quinn rolled her eyes.
"You do things your way, but this is my way. You don't like it, go wait in the car." She turned back to Justin. "You said you had someone following that girl? How can you be sure they will finish the job?"
"Tr-trust m-m-me, she's t-oast."
Quinn laughed, "Trust you? That's cute. Where is Evans?"
"I-" He looked around.
Sam was about to show himself when Mike sent him a text.
M- Did I hear that correctly? The Fabray's are running the show?
S- I didn't even put it together, how could anyone? Not even my mom realized it!
M- What do you want to do? You have to stop whoever they sent after Mercedes. Sam if they get to her at the safe house…
S- I know. I don't know where my team is but we need to get out of here. We can stop that bastard and then regroup
M- Can you make it to the car without being seen?
S- Faster than you can.
M- Shut up. Meet me there. We can head to the safe house and talk to your people to see just what the hell is going on.
Sam looked over to Mike and nodded before slowly backing away from the scene. He wasn't sure how he could have been so stupid, he knew something was off with Quinn he just wasn't sure what. And now this…he would settle things with her soon, but for now, her not knowing he knew the truth could work in their favor.
Sam had driven faster than the law would allow not caring if he got followed by any police, he welcomed it. All he wanted was for them to get to their women. Protect them. Mike tried to reach the safe house as Sam tried to reach his mom but she wasn't answering either. As he pulled into the safe house, seeing a car he didn't recognize and frowned, stepping out of the car with a furry.
Mike looked around. "Okay we go in through the-"
Mike stopped as he heard a loud scream from inside of the house and he and Sam looked at each other, before both drawing their guns and running right to the front door. Busting through the door they stopped looking into the face of four confused women.
Sam looked around and turned completely facing one a man that was tied to a chair with a gag. He and Mike looked at each other as Mike shut the door behind him.
"Sooo what happened here?" Mike asked.
All four girl's stared at each other and burst out laughing.
Exactly Forty Five Minutes Ago
Mercedes noticed a car had been following her as she drove to the safe house, she had a feeling that someone might do that and grabbed her phone. She knew Mike and Sam were handling business so she decided to call Tina.
"Hey Merce you on your way?"
"T, did Stacey and Marley get there?" Mercedes asked, keeping an eye on the car turning down the street behind her.
"Yeah, just got them settled in, what's going on?"
"I am being followed. I think we need to handle this, I doubt he is gonna do anything when I get out, he will most likely come inside and try to catch us off guard."
"Ah so we are gonna catch him off guard is what you are suggesting."
"Exactly T, the last safe house had a bunch of rope and tools. I need you to look around and find whatever you can… I know they pick houses that are hard to get into so we need to lure him in the way we want."
Mercedes checked the GPS. "I am about five minutes away. If this is too much I need you to just get the other girl's out-"
"No! Merce we are in this together okay? Now I will find whatever we can to tie him up, and just go from there."
"Okay, just make sure all the lights are off. Make him think it's just me and him." Mercedes said. "I will see you in a few."
Mercedes hung up and sighed gripping the steering wheel. "Game on."
Four minutes later Mercedes pulled into the safe house. Closing her eyes before grabbing her phone and smiling. The man parked two houses away, he wasn't even slick with it, did they really think she was stupid?
Stepping out of the car she thought of all of the ways things could go wrong and focused on the good things, focused on what she could handle. Walking towards the door, she used the key that was in the car and opened it, looking around slowly before she walked inside. Shutting the door behind her.
Mercedes glanced around the dark room and smiled making out Tina's silhouette. "T!" She whispered, moving to hug her. "I don't know how long we have but he's here. Where are the others?"
"We are right here." Stacey whispered.
They heard gravel beneath someone's feet and Mercedes moved out of the way. Tina handed her a can.
"It's cooking spray. It's not mace but it will catch him off guard."
Mercedes nodded. "Okay, let's do this."
With Stacey and Marley standing on the right with Tina and Mercedes on the left. She gripped the can and the moment it opened she held her breath as the man came in and slowly closed the door.
Mercedes counted to three and screamed. "NOW!"
Marley hit the lights as Mercedes sprayed the man in the face and Stacey did a spin kick knocking him on his stomach. Mercedes jumped on his back as Stacey sat on his legs. Marley tied up his feet with duct tape and Tina taped his hands.
He struggled and Mercedes tried to help Tina pin his arms together when they heard a yell and a pot being hit over his head.
"Ow what the fuck!" The man yelped.
"Wha da fuc! Wha da fuc!" the little girl sang. Tina looked wide eyed and Mercedes reached for the pot and grabbed it. It was a great idea but her little Angel just didn't use enough force. So she lifted it high above her head and slammed it down on his head knocking the man out.
The girl's let him go and breathed out staring at each other.
"Wha da fuc!" They all turned to Tina's daughter and burst out laughing. Tina scooped her up.
"Sweetie, we don't say that word!"
"Awwww." Angel said.
Mercedes laughed, shaking her head. "Come on, let's get this guy tied up."
They all worked to get him up and into the chair, Marley tied both his ankles to the legs of the chair while Stacey worked on tying his arms around the back of the chair.
"You think we can get him to tell us who sent him?" Tina asked, poking him hard but he was out cold.
"Maybe? I know when I was at the compound they would shock people until they told them what they wanted to know." Stacey said and they all looked at her shocked. "What, I like bad boys."
Mercedes scuffed. "Apparently we all do… there might be a taser somewhere around here, everyone look for one." She replied and everyone went off in different directions in search for a taser.
"I found one!" Marley shouted after ten minutes, running to meet everyone in the living room. Tina grabbed it and immediately tased the man earning looks from the other women.
"OW!" The man shouted out before trying to lunge at them but was stopped because of the restraints. "YOU BITCHES ARE GOING TO REGRET THIS!" He snarled before Tina hit him again with the taser.
"Tina, we need him to answer questions first!" Mercedes said taking the taser away from her. "When did you get so… crazy!"
Tina shrugged. "I had to learn how to protect myself when I married Mike."
"Okay we can have this conversation later, ask him something!" Stacey said, shaking her head at them.
"Right… who sent you?" Mercedes asked looking at big man hoping like hell he wouldn't be able to get out of his ties.
"Fuck you!" He spat and Mercedes placed the taser on his upper thigh, leaning in.
"I'll ask one more time, who sent you, otherwise my hand is going to slip…" The man's eyes grew wide before he bucked at her and Mercedes hit the button tasing him on the thigh.
"WHO SENT YOU!" She shouted. "Next time it'll be your left ball."
He groaned out. "Fucck you!" He gritted out and Mercedes nodded before placing the taser on his crotch and tasing him, he screamed out but she kept going. "PLEASE STOP!" He shouted.
"Who sent you!"
"MY BALLSS! Fuck, The Fabray's, they sent me… please stop!" The man shouted and Mercedes moved her hand and sighed.
"Who the hell are the Fabray's?" She asked and Stacey shook her head.
"Fucking bitch! That means Quinn knew… she knew I was there and did nothing!" She said walking over and taking the taser from Mercedes. "She was nice, I'm not so you better answer the first time. How long have you been working for Quinn?"
He let out a sigh. "For years, my family has always worked for the Fabray family… me and Quinn grew up together." He answered.
"How is she involved with the Tres?" Marley asked and he shot her a hard look.
"I can't answer that without putting you all in danger." He answered before Stacey brought the taser up to his neck, tasering him until he fainted.
"Crap! Now we have to wait for him to wake up!" Tina said, taking the taser away from Stacey. "I guess we can have some snacks, I gotta put Angel down for a nap."
Mercedes nodded looking at the man who was slouched in the chair. She didn't understand what was happening. Were the Tres after her or The Fabray's? Were they working together? She ran her hands through her hair taking a breath. She moved to reach over and search him.
"What are you doing?" Marley asked, looking over to her.
"He has to be communicating with her, so I want to know what he was told. Plus we gotta move his car off the street…ah ha!" She said, grabbing his phone.
Mercedes turned it on and smiled as it asked for a thumb print. Grabbing the man's hand she placed his thumb on the phone and stepped away as she started to scroll through it.
Stacey stood next to her. "What do you see?"
"There are only a few numbers in here."
"Should we call one of them and see if they say anything?" Tina asked and Mercedes shook her head.
"Wouldn't that be a bad idea? If we call and hang up they'll know it's not him… like in the movies?" Mercedes countered. "If we are gonna do anything we should text the last number he texted. I can almost guarantee it's Quinn."
Stacey nodded. "True. Okay, let's go check his texts.
Mercedes glanced down to the phone and after a moment froze. "Oh. My. God!"
Three pairs of eyes met hers. "What?" They said in unison.
Mercedes looked at them. "Soooo first his name is Dave…and second Quinn is blackmailing him. Look!"
She turned the phone and the girl's saw a photo of Dave in a leather thong with a ball gag in his mouth as a man spanked him from behind.
"OH MY GOD!" Tina screamed as Stacey and Marley howled loudly right as the door burst opened.
Present
Sam and Mike looked at the woman staring at them with an amused expression before they looked back at themselves laughing loudly.
Mike and Sam shared a look before walking further inside assessing the house. "I guess we didn't need to rush." Sam said walking over to the man and lifting his head.
"What did y'all do to him?" Mike asked, leaning down and kissing Tina.
Sam got a good look at him before letting his head fall back down. "Why is he here?" He asked, looking at the woman who all shrugged.
"He didn't get to tell us because Stacey went overboard." Tina answered.
"Overboard with what?" Mike questioned.
"We tased him until he gave us some answers… he said he worked for the Fabray's" Marley replied and Sam shook his head.
"No you misunderstand my question, how is he here? This man." He said lifting his head up again. "He's dead… or at least he was supposed to be, look Mike."
Mike walked over to get a better look and nodded. "Dave Karofsy, Agent… shit I forget his badge and rank but I killed him. We had a funeral and everything for him… well the bureau did."
"So he's a ghost?" Mercedes asked.
"In our field someone who dies and comes back is technically a ghost, yes but that means someone else is involved in all of this because there is no way in hell he pulled this off alone." Sam explained.
"He said him and Quinn grew up together and that his family has always worked for hers." Stacy said and Mike shook his head.
"No, this is above The Fabray's… it's someone in the bureau orchestrating this." Mike said before quickly moving Sam out of the way and taking of Dave's shoes. "Did you check him for bugs?" He asked looking at Tina.
"Ah… no? I didn't think about it…" She answered honestly and Mike shot her a look.
"Damn it." Sam said, running his hands along the back of his neck and shoulders. "It's here!"
Mike took a knife out of his pocket and handed it to Sam. "How long has he been here?"
"I don't know, maybe an hour?" Mercedes answered. "What's going on?"
Sam sighed, working quickly at gently slicing into the man's flesh just deep enough to get his fingers in and dig out the tracker that he felt before taking it out, taking a close look at it.
"We might be compromised… depending on how long ago he was tased there…"
"Wha da fuc!" Angel sang coming into the room.
Oh this is getting juicy!
