Thank you all for the wonderful reviews and for putting a smile on my face each time I read one. Thank you for all the love.
I had a review asking about a code for the elevator. No, there is no code. You put your eye up to a small round ball and if it recognizes you the elevator doors will close and move you up or down. If it does not recognize you the doors will close and the alarm will go off and you can not get out until someone comes to get you out. So you see they are always safe. Thank you Joan for asking.
Now it is time to save the lives of two hundred children. Some of you are probably wondering why we didn't take them on the water? One because we didn't want them to throw the children overboard and two because we didn't want to sink their ship. Three because we didn't want to hit innocent children if they put them in front of them to save their own rotten lives. Four we want them all, not just the ones on this ship. We want the leader. We are not going to take them at sea. We have plans for them when that ship docks that no one will know until days later that there will be no children to take away.
What about the President showing up and all the good deeds Christian and the whole family are doing. Yeah the President knew Christian was not in control and had to help him in some way. Can you picture Christian running around with his hands in his hair wondering what to do and who to help. Wondering where his wife is and praying she is safe. He would be bald by the time Ana got home if the President didn't intervene and help him.
The children are at the Naval Hospital in Charleston that is top secret. Well it looks closed but it is not. It helps the service men and women and now the children and their families.
Christian and his family are bringing it back to the top with their funds and the charities they are sponsoring with the help of the neighborhood and private gifts.
Now on with our next chapter
Chapter 35 Part 6 Children are safe
Ana walks out of the room leaving the woman and the woman is wondering if she is really a Captain of the F.B.I.
Paula told her she was and she will find out when it's time for Captain Anastasia Trevelyan to interrogate her. But until then the Captain has a job to do and that is bringing those precious children out of there alive and safe.
This is the next morning
"Good morning everyone. I hope you all had a good night's rest because we are going to be busting our asses this evening getting those containers set up so we can safely take those children off that ship. We will wait until everyone leaves, then we will begin our work."
"Alright Donovan, Morris, McKnight, Bennett, Tomlin, Thatcher, Felton, Mark, Binks, Dawson, Johnson, Brock, Smith, Sims, Rivers, Steele, Avery, Simpson, Owens, Black, Moore, Conners, Lang, Preston, Jonas, Eaves, Stranger, Freeman, Adams, Cruz, James, Crankston, Tames, Osmond, Dallas, Berry, Borden, Rolland, Barrows, Davis, Langley, Bonds, Forrester, Jamison, Edwards, Rogerson, Allen, Williams, Richards, Beckley, Barrows,Brock, and Boone. You are all with me and we are going to bring those children out of there safely."
"Yes Captain we will." Morris says, tightening his fist.
"I have over two earpieces here." She points to the box in front of her.
"These earpieces are like none we have ever seen. These were made by Barney, an IT genius and helps Christian and I out at times like this. The Director and our President has already approved them for us to use."
They all walk over the table and look at what she is showing them.
"Captain how do we use these and they are so small where do we put them?"
"They are earrings, buttons and glasses with an earpiece and infra-red ."
"Wow you are right I have never seen anything like this." Donovan and Morris tell her looking at everything.
"How do we use these?" he asked her, looking at the glasses.
"Barney and Welch are here and they will show us all how to use them. whatever you choose you will learn about them." She says smiling as she sees the guys walk in.
"Hello everyone I am sure most of you remember us but if you don't know us. I am Barney and this is Welch that is what we go by. Now if you would kindly choose an earpiece we will be glad to explain the mechanics of them for you." He says looking at everyone.
"It is good to see you both. How in the world did you get away from Christian or had you already left?" She asked them.
"No Ana, we were still there when you called. We told him that we had to check out some leads for the Director and we would be at Headquarters there with his men." He tells her.
"He bought that story?" She looks at him crazy like.
"Well he did when the Director and the President told him the same thing." Barney smirks at her.
"Yeah I am sure he would believe them."
"Alright Paula I see you have chosen one that goes in the top of your ear. Good choice it looks like one of them that goes in your cartilage. You can't tell it's an earpiece." He holds it looking at it.
"Anyone else decided on the cartilage earpiece like Paula did? I can show you all how to turn it on and once it is on it will not turn off until Welch or I turn it off. That's the good thing about these new earpieces. If someone takes it off you they can not destroy it. They can burn it, beat it into pieces but it will not turn off. This is some of the metal that the astronauts use in space."
With that said there are at least half of the agents going for the cartilage earpiece. It is simple in style and not really noticeable. It just looks like a half ring around the ear.
"Alright everyone that chose the cartilage earpiece come closer. Hold your earpiece up and you will see on the bottom there is a little slot. It holds a pin. Pull the pin out and it will vibrate two times and then it will go from black to silver. That means it has been activated. Our guys back at our offices are monitoring them. All you have to do is clip half way up your ear and it will mold to your ear." He tells them watching what they are doing.
He watches them pull the pin and see it vibrate in their hands. It changes from black to silver and they put it on their ears.
"Wow this is comfortable, I can't tell I have it on." Paula tells him and Ana.
"Yeah I know I am going to use one too." Ana says, shaking her head to see if it will come off.
"Alright I have confirmation from the office that one and seventy earpieces activated. Would you all look at the bottom of your box and tell me the number please."
They all did as Barney asked them to do. As the numbers were called out the earpieces deactivated. You could see them turning black.
"Oh my goodness Paula yours is turning black. Hell all of them are." Ana looks at Barney waiting for an answer.
"As you called your number out the guys at the office turned each one off. That way we knew which one you had. As soon as you touched it your fingerprints and picture were sent to the office and to the F.B.I. Headquarters in every state." He sounds very proud of himself.
"Barney, I am very impressed with these earpieces. Thank you so much and both of you should be very proud of what you have accomplished with them." Ana tells them hugging them both.
"Thank you Ana. We knew we had to make something that would be indestructible and we did it with the help of our teams." He tells her.
"Are you going to patten all of these?" She asked him.
"Eventually but not right now. These are going to be for all the agencies and hopefully the armed services." He said.
"That would be amazing, Barney, you and Welch deserve the recognition and your team." She tells them.
"Thank you Ana." He says blushing. He has always had a crush on Ana.
"Barney, how do the glasses work? My name is Burt Jonas and I am interested in them." He says holding them up and looking through them.
"Nice to meet you Mr. Jonas. Do you wear glasses or contacts sir?" If you wear contacts you will have to take them out. These glasses are so sophisticated that they will adjust to your eyes and you won't need any other type of eyewear." He explains to him.
"No, I used to wear contacts but they got to be aggravating over the years or I just didn't want to mess with them." He says laughing.
"I know what you mean sir I do not like them either. Do you wear glasses?"
"Yes sometimes, especially when I am reading."
"These glasses will adjust to your eyes as I said and you won't have to wear yours if you don't want to." He tells him.
"Now if you look at the left leg or arm whatever you call them. I call them hangers because they hang over your ears." They all laugh.
"There is a small silver button all you have to do is turn it on and it is activated for you. Anyone else wanting the glasses?"He asked them.
"Well Barney, I believe that takes care of the ones here and don't forget there will be more agents coming later." She tells him.
"Yes Ana I remember and we have plenty of both and some different ones. I believe everyone will go with the ones you all have." He tells her.
"Alright, gather around and I will show you how these works." He tells everyone that is coming to the table.
"On the left arm you will see a silver button push it on and it is activated. They will adjust to your eyes in daylight and dark. They have microphones in the legs and infrared in the lenses. They will record everything that is said and you see. They are indestructible, just like the earpiece. You can talk to your team by just talking. They can hear every word you say and hear. When you take them off they will continue to be doing surveillance even in a dark room." He tells all of them.
"Wow, that is phenomenal out of this world." Cora says, speaking her mind as always.
"Ms. Cora my dear, how are you doing?"
"I am doing very well Barney and you?"
"The same ma'am."
"So all we have to do is push the silver button and they are activated? Can I drive at night with them on? You said they adjust to your eyes right?" She would ask him a million questions if she had the time.
"Yes ma'am let me show you all. First the ones with the glasses activate them please and put them on. I am going to have the lights turned off and you all will see what I am talking about." He tells them.
The lights go out and the ones with the glasses are amazed.
"Oh my goodness these are amazing. I can see everything with them on. Good thing they aren't x-ray you know." She laughs telling him.
"Yes ma'am I know and if they were we would be in trouble." He smirks at her.
"Oh lordy, yes."
"Now that everyone has their ear pieces and glasses, what do you think about them?"
"Mr. Barney I am way back here in the back and I have the earpiece and I can clearly hear the Captain talking sir. I for one am very impressed with this and I believe you will be making a fortune on it when you get it patented sir." Brody McKnight tells him.
"Well thank you sir and your name?" He asks him.
"Oh sorry sir I am Brody McKnight F.B.I. Sniper sir." He tells him.
"Well again thank you young man but I will not be selling these. I will have them patented, yes but they will go to the agencies and armed services who ask for them." He not only tells Brody but everyone.
"One question sir, don't you still work for GEH?" He asked him.
"No sir, GEH has been shut down for months now. I do work for Mr. and Captain Trevelyan but not in the sense of GEH." He tells him.
"Oh I am sorry I didn't know the Captain's husband shut it down for good." He says.
"I'll take it from here Barney." She tells him, smiling.
"Agent McKnight GEH is still there but with all the trouble Christian had and then the bombing we decided to leave it closed for now. We have a lot of other things going on like our Soup Kitchens, Homes for abused and runaways, Veterans and anyone who needs a safe haven. We will do our best to help them. We are having Concerts and benefits to help the homeless and jobless that can't work." She tells him with so much feeling that she starts to cry,
"I am sorry Captain, I didn't mean to get personal. I just thought it was closed temporarily." He tells her looking at her and feeling bad.
"It's alright Brody I don't think a lot of people knew we shut it down for now." She says wiping her eyes with the handkerchief Barney gave her.
"Captain Trevelyan may I say we are all proud of the wonderful work you and your husband are doing for everyone that needs it. I know this is close to your heart and we would like to help anyway we can. That is if you need us we will be there." She says.
"Thank you Belinda I apprecitae that so much." She tells her kindly.
"Alright we have our earpieces and glasses. Are you all comfortable with them?" She asks them.
"Yes Captain, I have no problem with mine. How about you all?" She asks them
They all say they are good with theirs.
"Good very good. Now let us all go to the conference rooms A and B. We have supper prepared for us all. It is buffet style and whatever you want should be on it." She tells them.
"Oh my lord I am starving." Brody says.
"As always." Morris smirks at him.
"Come on Barney you and Welch I am hungry too."
They all walk down to the conference rooms and take a seat.
"Hello everyone, have a seat and we shall eat in a few moments. I just want to hear how you all like the earpieces and glasses." President Johnson asked everyone.
"President Johnson on behalf of everything I think I speak the truth. We all love them and are very happy to have them. We know Mr. Barney and Mr. Welch worked hard to make these for all of us with these wonderful tools and we appreciate them so much." Agent Crankston says.
"Yes we all agree they are wonderful." Cora says.
"Very well I am glad you all are satisfied with them. I know they will come in handy when you need them." He tells them all.
"Barney while you all were in the other room down the hall with the doors closed and our doors closed we could hear everything that was said very clearly. You have out done yourself young man, you and Welch deserve a big pay out for these." He says holding up the earpiece.
"Thank you sir and we are happy that everyone likes them and you as well sir." He tells him.
"Alright now that everything is said and the food is ready shall we eat?" he says
Everyone grabs a tray, a plate and silverware wrapped in a linen napkin. Hey only the best for the best. Besides we have the President here.
"Annie Rose come sit with me, you, Paula, Morris, McKnight, Dawson, Crankston, Jonas. Come on Ray, I want your input as well sir." He says.
"Everyone else sit close to us so you all can hear the plans that Captain Trevelyan has for the safe return of the children. This is for those that weren't in the meeting with us yesterday." He tells them all.
Now we will all eat first and then get down to business because this is happening tomorrow night right Captain?" he asks her.
They all finished their supper and are having coffee or water with their desserts.
"Yes sir it is tomorrow night but the time of their arrival will be three hours later. As they got caught in a storm and pushed off course but they are back on course and heading this way. From what the Coast Guard told us they are safe and will be here tomorrow night." She tells everyone.
"Good, Good. Now do you all know how the Captain is executing this take down?" He asks them.
"Yes sir, she has the containers lined up and the ones that can't be in line. We will set them up as soon as the dock workers leave tomorrow night. She has the containers set and we are hanging covers over them so they can not see any of us. There will be four agents standing at the entrance of the containers to help take the children off sir." Brody tells him.
"Then we will take the children through the tunnel-like maze and have doctors and nurses waiting for them at the end so they can put them on the buses and take them to the hospitals." Cora says loudly for everyone to hear. Ana smiles at her.
"After the children are safe we will proceed to take action to bring the criminals in alive if possible. Probably injured but alive. We have agent drivers in the water, snipers on the roofs, Helicopters in the air with the agents' guns aimed at the ship. We have three agents on the ship. We hope to get them off safely and any women that are there as long as they don't do anything stupid. Our Captain has dotted all her I's and crossed all her T's. We are ready sir to bring these bastards down once and for all sir and Captain." Agent Donovan tells him, saluting him and Ana.
"Thank you Agent Donovan, yes she has everything planned out as I would expect any of my men or women on any agency to do. But the Captain goes above and beyond what we call taking care of business. She is the business and she takes no prisoners," He tells her and everyone.
"Anything anyone wants to add before we adjourn for the night?" He asked them.
"Just one thing Captain and Mr. President, are we taking them alive? Like Agent Donovan said they might be stupid and I believe they will be." Ray says.
"I will leave that in the capable hands of your Captain Trevelyan. She will know what to do and when to do it. I have faith in her and her teams. The main thing is to bring those children out safely then worry about the bastards. I know you all will take them down." He stands and looks at everyone.
'Yes sir we will bring them out safely. We have never failed in a mission and I am damned if we fail this. We have two hundred yes two hundred scared and lost children on that fucking ship and they are coming off safely and we are going to take them to the buses. Then and only then will we take the bastards out. If we have to kill them, so be it. They don't deserve to live after what they have done not only to these children but thousands more. We cannot, I repeat, can not let them get away with this. We have to take the children to safety. They were planning on going to Texas and picking up more children before they set sail for Yemen. Agents that is not going to happen right? Any more questions or thoughts before we all leave and go to bed?" She looks at all of them standing up and walking around the tables.
'They all say no ma'am we will save the children and take the bastards down."
"Very well let's get out of here and get some rest. I for one have to interrogate the woman that was in the building. This is going to be so much fun. She doesn't believe I am who I say I am. But lord help me she is fixin
to. Now all of you go to the hotel and get some rest. That is an order." Ana tells them and sits back down.
"I need Agents Steele, Donovan, Dawson, Morris, Smith, Felton, Brock, Johnson, Crankston, McKnight,Jonas, Bandry, Grant, Scotts, Simmons and Conrad to please take a seat up here for a few minutes." She tells them.
Everyone else gets up and walks by her and the President and says good night.
Ana and the President say good night to them.
"Yes Captain what's up?" Ray asks her.
"Dad I am not scared but I am worried that something is going to go wrong. Not with the children but after we get them away. I feel like I am missing something." She tells him.
"Annie there is always a chance that something could go wrong. I trust you and your instincts just like Christian does. Hell like Paula does. She knows you as well as I do. Can you explain this feeling you are having or do you think something could go wrong?" He asks her sitting down beside her.
"Right now it's just a feeling but it's pretty strong." She tells him.
"Well tell us the feeling you are having. They have never steered you wrong before." He tells her.
"I think I know what I should do and not let the cops come in and get the men and women if there are any on the ship. The cops do not know about this and I would like to keep it that way." She tells them.
"Why Captain what brought this on?" The President asked her.
"It's something that the assistant manager said about the cops and government being involved in New York and New Jersey. Derrick, did you go over the papers that were in the manager's office from head to toe and everywhere in between?" She asked him.
"Yes ma'am we did and we found all kinds of corrupt dealings with the law. They F.B.I. there in New York and New Jersey are aware of all the paperwork and they are taking care of it." He tells her.
"Thank you and now you see why I have this gut feeling. We can't involve them right now. We need Swat and armed forces backing us up. We have three Army trucks to take all of them out when we get them off the ship and take them to the United States Penitentiary, Coleman in Wildwood, Florida. The Army trucks are going to take them to a private air strip and they will be loaded on a Military Carrier to be flown to Wildwood, Florida. The prison is operated by the Federal Bureau Of Prisons. It's a division of the United States Department of Justice." She tells them.
She is waiting for them to say something.
"I have spoken with the Commander-In-Chief Mr. Benjamin Livingston and he agrees with me that it will be the safest way to transport criminals. That way everyone will be safe and no one will know the difference." She says looking at all of them and taking a deep breath.
"You have done your work on this already haven't you young lady?" He asks her.
"Yes sir I sure have. Now do we do as I say or not?" She asks, looking around the table.
"I believe we do as you say. If they are corrupt as they are in the east we have no choice but follow through with your plan. I believe this will work better and I will get Swat and all the armed forces I can down here." He tells them.
"Thank you Uncle agreeing with me on this." She tells him.
"Honey I appointed the Commander-In-Chief. I know he knows what he is talking about." He tells her.
"By George my girl you hit the nail on the head. That would be better and not so many buses traveling out of here. Yes we load them all in the back of Army trucks and it would be like a convoy. No one is going to stop them." Brody says.
"Yes, that will work. I will call Swat and have them ready tomorrow night at ten o'clock. Annie Rose, you are a gem. Captain Trevelyan we will see you in the morning in your room for breakfast. That goes for all of you." He says and gets up and walks out.
"Wow Annie Rose you are a gem. Now that's what I call really a gut feeling." Paula says hugging her best friend.
"Ladies I would like for you all to come to my room after I get back from Headquarters. I have to interrogate this woman first and then I will call you if it's not too late. There are some things I would like to discuss with you. But as I said first I have to go and interrogate this bitch that doesn't believe who I am. I need to know what is going to happen when the Queen arrives as this woman says. Hell I don't even know the name of the woman I am going to interrogate but I will soon." Ana says getting up and walking to the door.
"Robin, I need you with me. She might say something that I will not understand even though I speak Arabic perfectly. I will be watching her movements and writing down things." She tells her.
"Yes Captain, let's do this." She says standing up.
"Call us anytime, Captain."
They tell the ladies goodbye and walk out the door.
"She is in the last room at the end of this hall, Robin." She tells her as they walk down the hall.
"Agent Adams has anyone been in to talk to the prisoner? Does anyone know her name?" She stands at the door.
"Captain Trevelyan, Agent Blackwell brought this for you to look over before you walk in there to interrogate her. He said he would have given it earlier but he didn't want to interrupt your meeting you all were having. He explained they found the ID's of all of the warehouse Arabics after they did the final search you asked them to do." He hands a folder over to her with her name on it.
"Thank you Agent Adams." She walks over to another door and goes in and sits down.
"Agent Crankston please come in and have a seat." She tells her walking back to the door.
"Yes Captain and I am sorry I didn't follow you in here but I didn't know if you needed me right now." She tells her sitting down.
"Oh that is alright. When I get something very important in my head I tend to be in my zone. I would like for you to look these papers over after I do and see if any names ring a bell. You all are more likely to see a name there than I would. You have the Sex trafficking Ring down here and I am sure the names would be more familiar to you than me." She explains and she is looking through the files.
Alright Captain but I know you know the names backwards and forwards of everyone of them. From my research on you you are the best of the best and you leave no stone unturned." She says looking at her.
"Thank you Robin and yes I do. I do my homework before it is time to turn it in. But I would like a second set of eyes in case I missed someone." She replies by handing her a file.
They go over the files and they have names and photos of all the Arabs they have in custody.
"Alright now we have the names of all of them. Let's go and see if we can't take her down a peg or two. She has been in there for quite a few hours." Ana tells her laughing.
"Yes, Captain, make them wait and suffer. I like your style. I have to tell you this will be the first interrogation I have ever been too." She tells Ana standing up.
"That is alright and now you will get to see what happens in mine." Ana replies as they walk out the door and to the woman prisoner.
"Agent Adams thank you for that information. Please call Agent Blackwell and have him come and pick up these files on the men. They can sort out who will interrogate them. Tell him to make sure it is none of the agents that will be with my teams tomorrow. He knows who they are and I didn't take everyone." She tells him.
"Yes Captain." He tells her holding the files in his hand.
"How has she been since we brought her in?" Ana asked him.
"Nervous and scared. She has been sitting in the chair looking around and waiting for someone to come to her. She has water near her and only drank one bottle so far. If you watch her through the monitor she is shaking and her leg is bouncing like crazy. I think she thought they wouldn't get caught." He says looking at the monitor.
"Why do you say that?" She asked him.
"Because she spoke in perfect English a while ago. "I have done this so many times helping Slovenia with the children and never had a problem."Then she starts asking for her husband. His name is Haider Obaid." That is what she called him." He tells the Captain.
"Thank you Agent Adams for listening closely to her. Most prisoners keep their mouths shut. I guess she is nervous and worried. Well by god she is better she. She is going down with the rest of them." She says opening the door and walking in.
"About time you showed your face again. I have been sitting here for hours. I need to go and take care of some things. You can not hold me. I have done nothing wrong." She yells at Ana looking at her like she wants to kill her.
" First thing you are being recorded as I stated earlier. Now, Now calm down, there is no reason to be like that. You are under arrest and anything you say can and will be used against you. You read your rights. Now what is it going to be or are you going to talk to me or are you going to call your attorney? I do not have all night." Ana tells her walking to the table and looking down at her.
"I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI and I can hold you here as long as I want too. You see you are on American soil and you along with the others have committed a very serious crime. It is against the law to kidnap children. Sex Trafficking is against the law and we do not allow it. Now would you like to try and tell me you haven't done anything wrong again. When we all know you have." The Captain gets louder and closer to her face.
"My attorney is not in the states and I am sure he is not allowed to since he is not from here. You will have to get..what did you call it? Oh yes an attorney will be appointed for me. Bring me one that speaks my language." She grits out between her teeth.
"Very well since you have said that I will have the agent make a call and send one over to you. I will be here when he is present. Mrs. Aniyah Obaid." She turns to walk out the door.
"How, how did you know my name I never gave it?" She hits her fist on the table.
"I will talk to you with an attorney present not before." She walks out the door.
They hear her cursing in her language and English.
"Damn Captain you got her going good." Crankston said.
"Adams, make sure you have every word and video from that room. Call me when the attorney shows up please. Which will be sometime tomorrow." She tells him walking down the hall.
"Come along Robin, we have to meet the ladies. It's not late at all." She tells her walking out into the night air.
"Paula, are you with the ladies?" She asks over the phone.
"Yes we are in our room talking. Are you done already?" She asks her.
"For now, come on to my room. We will be there in a few minutes." She tells her getting in the car waiting for them.
"Alright see you in a little bit." She tells her.
"Well Robin the ladies should be here soon. Would you like something to drink? I have water, coffee, sweet tea I made myself and juice." She waits for her to answer.
"Sweet tea lord a mercy I haven't had any sweet tea in years. For some reason this part of Florida doesn't like sweet tea. I usually have water with lemon. Yes, tea sounds lovely." She replies to Ana.
They hear the elevator doors opening.
"Welcome ladies have a seat. Would you like something to drink? I have coffee, juice, water and tea. The drinks are on the table help yourselves." She says walking to the table to get her drink and Robin's.
"Wow this tea is sweet, it makes my teeth tingly." Cora tells them.
"Oh yes Ana you made this didn't you? I remember you making it at the penthouse for all of us." She tells her.
"Yes Cora I made it. I just can't stand unsweetened tea where you have to add your own sugar. You never get it right." She waves her hand and goes to sit down.
"Come on ladies grab your drink and let's sit down and talk about tomorrow night. This is going to be dangerous especially after we get the children away from the ship. I want to make sure you are all prepared for the mission tomorrow night. Make sure you have your Kevlar Vest on and your earpieces on your ears. Have your side arm and your other gun ready and loaded. We do know there are eighty-five men on board that our agents know of. But we do not know if there are more that are not showing their faces. So we do not know what we are going up against." She tells them looking around the room at all of them.
"We are ready and our guns are locked and loaded and we have extra ammunition for our guns. We have our earpieces and vest." Cora replies as she looks at all the ladies and goes to sit by their Captain.
"I do not, I repeat I do not want anything to happen to any of you. That even goes for the men. But agents we will probably be shooting the men that don't care if we live or die. If they can capture us they will try it. Because to them we are nothing." She says as she drinks her tea,
"Make sure you have your helmets, steel toe boots, knives and handcuffs. We are taking the fucking bastards down and if we have to shoot to kill damn right we will. We have to watch each other's backs." She says as she gets up and walks to the window to look out.
"Captain, we will take care of each other and watch our sixes. If it comes to killing them sorry bastards I won't shed a tear. I have killed before and I will again if it comes to my team and my life." Bethany tells them all walking over to Ana.
"Well ladies I believe we are as prepared as we can be for this mission. Just remember we are all in this together and we will not fail God willing. I will see you all at breakfast as Mr. President said "all be here." She walks them to the elevator and hugs them all before they get on.
'Lord there are a million things that can go wrong with this mission but I pray on the lives of my future children that we will succeed and bring the children out safely and take the scumbags down and to prison. Lord I don't want to have to kill anyone but if it comes to my life or theirs I will do what I must to survive. I will not only protect myself but my team as well. My team is counting on me to have everyone prepared for this mission tomorrow night. I pray I am.'
'How I wish I could talk to Boo right now. I need him so much. I need his comforting arms around me and telling me that I will do what I must to save the lives of the children. I want his kisses and touch but I will have to wait. I know he is going crazy but he will survive. He is strong and he has our family with him to get him through this. I hope it won't be too much longer. But we still have to go to Texas and take them bastards down. Then I am going home and locking myself and my husband in our home until I get my fill of him and that will never be enough. Lord, I miss him and everyone. Granmomma bless her heart. I hope she is doing alright. Uncle J said she was. Oh well enough of that I need sleep. I have a mission to complete tomorrow night and save children's lives.'
Morning comes soon.
"Good morning everyone. Now instead of you saying your name and taking timeout of this breakfast meeting. I had a tablet on the desk just say your name and it will record it and I will have confirmation that you all are here. I just hope and pray this floor holds all of us." She says walking over to the desk and showing them the tablet.
"I see another one of Barney's gadgets." Agent Brody says walking to the desk.
"Yeah that man is an IT genius. He can make anything you ask him to or modify anything to make it better." Ana tells them all.
The elevator doors open and in walks more agents and Ana tells them the same thing.
"Good morning Annie Rose, how are you my dear?" Ray asks her.
"Good morning dad I am doing well and you sir?" She asks him kissing his cheek.
"I am well Annie and ready to take care of business. I want to save all those children and take those bastards down." He tells her and anyone within earshot.
"Yes Ray we all do and we will." Paula tells him, hugging him.
"Come on in y'all breakfast in on the buffet and help yourself. Coffee, orange juice and water is on the bar. Grab your food and find a place to sit. After breakfast we will get down to business." Ana tells them walking over to get herself a plate.
They all sat around eating and talking about what is going down tonight.
"Alright, are we ready to discuss our mission for tonight? Is everyone finished with their breakfast?" She asks them.
'Yes they all say.'
"Alright now this is something new that came up last night. I went to interrogate the woman from the warehouse last night. Before I an Agent Crankston went in, Agent Adams gave me files on all of them that are now locked up."
"He told us she was nervous and started talking in perfect English saying that she had done this many times before kidnapping children and never got caught then she started saying she wanted her husband, that is when she said his name. Everything else was in the file."
"Agent Crankston and I went to another room and read the files. We have the name and a photo of each of the prisoners."
"We went in to talk to the woman who's name is Aniyah Obaid. She was shocked when I said her name. But I waited until she told me she wouldn't talk to me without an attorney. I told her the agent would call one for her and as I walked out I said her name. She wanted to know how I knew it because she didn't volunteer it. I told her I would talk to her when her attorney was present. She did not like that and started cursing in Arabic and English. I just walked off." She says as she sits down on the couch.
"I also found out her husband is Haider Obaid. He is the Queen's cousin and he does a lot for her." She said all that in two breaths.
"How did you get their names and photos Captain?"
Brody asked her.
"Agent Blackwell and a few other agents went into the warehouse to make sure no one was still in there and found a bag with all their id's in it. Not smart but we now we have it and their names. They can't lie about who they are." She replies.
"Yeah that was rather stupid on their part but a win for us." Paula says.
"Alright now down to the mission. For the ones that weren't here last night this is what is going to happen tonight."
"We have Swat coming in and the Military. We do not only have our own two hundred plus FBI Agents, we have the National Guard Army here as well. The Army trucks and the buses for the children. The doctors and nurses."
"Now with that said, let's hear your questions because I did not go into detail. I just told you who would be there." She said waiting on the questions.
"Captain, it is good that you are bringing in Swat and the National Guard. Now you said the Army will have trucks to take the bastards out but where are they taking them?" Morris asks her.
"Good question and thank you Agent Morris. The Army trucks are taking the bastards to an undisclosed location and putting them on a Military carrier and flying them to The United States Penitentiary, Coleman in Wildwood, Florida. There they will stay until we get some answers."
"It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons and a division of the United States Department of Justice. They will not be leaving there. We are not going to interrogate them. They have interrogators there that will handle them. The Warden Mr. Hewell said they will be taken care of and they will get the answers we need." She tells them.
"Wow Captain, you have executed this mission and planned it out. I am very impressed with you. I for one am going to hate seeing you leave us." Agent Simmons tells her.
"Thank you Agent Simmons I will miss you all too but I must continue on with the next mission and then go home to my family." She replies back to him.
"Any other questions before I continue?" She looks around the room.
"Only one Captain Trevelyan." Ray replies.
"Yes Agent Steele."
"Are we taking the bastards alive or dead?" He asks her, looking in her eyes.
"If possible we will take them in alive, maim then if you have to but do not kill them unless you have no other choice. We need answers from them. We have to stop these Sex Trafficking Rings." She tells them all.
"Yes Annie Rose. I was hoping for that answer." He says smiling at her.
The elevator doors open again and out walks the President, the Director, the Commander-In-Chief, the Leader of Swat, Barney and Welch.
"Good morning everyone. I am sure you have heard the plans that Captain Trevelyan has executed and know what is going to happen." He says walking to the front of the couch and standing.
"Yes sir we have and we are ready and prepared to follow through with the plans sir." Agent Brody replies standing up and shaking his hand.
"For the ones of you that do not know these gentlemen let me introduce them to you. On my right is our Commander-In-Chief Mr. Benjamin Livingston, next to him is The Leader of Swat Mr. Landon Manchester, the Warden of the United States Penitentiary in Wildwood, Florida Mr. Amos Hewell and you all know our Director of the FBI here in Florida Mr. Benjamin Echols. They all nod their heads as they are introduced.
"Welcome gentlemen, I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI and I am lead agent on this mission. It is very nice to meet you all. I for one was not expecting you all but it is a pleasure that you are all here." She tells them shaking their hands.
"My dear Captain we could not go another day without meeting the young lady that is the Captain of this team. Do not take this the wrong way but we were expecting an Amazon not a pixie. We know looks do not define the person but when you spoke to each of us on the phone we were curious to meet you." The Warden says looking at her.
"Our esteemed President never told us what you looked like. He just said you will be surprised and amazed and I must say he was right. We have heard so much about you and what you have done for our country. We are honored to meet you, Captain Trevelyan." This coming from Landon Manchester the Leader of the Swat Division.
"My dear I must agree with them, your name speaks for itself. You young lady is going down in the history books as the youngest FBI Captain we have ever had. We are all very proud of what you do and what you have taken on and accomplished. We all followed the mission you undertook for Mr. Christian Grey when he was GEH. We know his name was changed to Trevelyan and that he is now your husband."
"Young lady you set your mind to a mission you execute and plan and follow through and you have never failed one and you don't give up until it is finished. We will miss you here and I am sure I speak for everyone in this room that we do not want you to leave but we know there is another mission you have to execute and then you are permanently retiring." This from the Director Mr. Benjamin Echols himself.
"Oh my lord gentlemen thank you all but I was just doing my job to the best of my ability and praying we succeeded and no one was hurt or killed. I will do my best to make sure this mission will be the same way sirs." She tells them with tears in her eyes.
"Captain, we know that you took down Lincoln and his crew and you did an exemplary job. You performed all you set out to do on an extraordinary level and never once did you falter or give up. You demonstrate consistent mastery in all aspects of your duties and responsibilities. Captain you are one of a kind, a diamond in a pile of coal and you shine brighter than the brightest star in the sky.' This coming from the Homeland Security Deputy Abrams Prince.
"Deputy Prince, when did you walk in, sir?" She looks up at him with tears in her eyes.
"My dear just as the Director finished speaking to you." He tells her, handing her his handkerchief.
"Gentlemen, would you all like something to drink?" Paula asks them.
"Coffee all around please. We are big coffee drinkers." They say.
Ana composes herself as much as she can and walks to the table where Barney and Welch are standing.
"Everyone that wasn't in the conference rooms last night please come to the table. I am sure your fellow agents have told you all about the new earpieces and glasses that these gentlemen have for you all." She says to them.
"Yes ma'am we have heard about them and can't wait to choose one." Agent Henderson replies.
"Well as you all can see they have plenty and you can choose the one you want and when you all are finished Barney and Welch will show you how they work. Take your time, no rush, we want you to be happy and comfortable with your choice." She tells them.
They all walk up and look at the gadgets and talk to the men about them. The majority chose the earpiece.
"Alright for the ones that chose the earpiece, if you look on the bottom you will see a slot with a pin. Pull the pin out and it will vibrate two times and the color will go from black to silver as you look at it. Put it halfway up either ear it doesn't matter which ear you use. It will mold to your ear and not come off unless you take it off."
"There are no batteries, no need to charge it. It will never go dead and you can not turn it off. We can turn it off in the office. It has audio and records everything that is being said. As soon as you pulled the pin and touched the earpiece your name, fingerprints and picture was sent to our office and we will send it to the FBI Headquarters where you are working and every state the FBI is Headquartered at. It is a safety precaution for you all. That means if someone tries to take it off you their fingerprints and name will go to the FBI Headquarters." Barney finishes explaining to them.
"Oh my, I think I want the earpiece instead of the glasses." Another agent says.
"That is your choice sir, we want you to be happy and comfortable with what you have," Welch tells him and hands him the earpiece box.
"Now for those that chose the glasses, let me explain how they work. First I will tell you they are inferred they work like magic at night outside and inside. If you look at the arm or leg or whatever you call them. I call them hangers because they hang on my ears." They all laugh at that.
"If you will look at the leg you will see a small silver button push that button and it activates them. The same your name, fingerprints and picture will go to our office and immediately be sent to your FBI location you work at." Barney tells them.
"Now if everyone is satisfied I need you to say the number that is on the bottom of the earpieces and the glasses box. Speak into the tablet with your name and number. Thank you all and I sincerely hope each of you enjoy your gadgets and are comfortable with them." Barney tells them putting the rest away,
"Thank you sir, I am very happy with mine." Another agent speaks up.
"Alright everyone take a seat somewhere." Captain Trevelyan tells the agents.
"Ladies and gentlemen we are about to undertake a very dangerous mission not only to save two hundred children but to take down scumbag bastards once and for all. We have to get them off the streets and the seas. We can not continue to allow these lowlifes to come into our cities and kidnap children for their own gain. We must stop it and stop it now."
"As you all know they are planning to sail on to Texas after they load the children on the Tubor when the Queen Slovenia Padres arrive as they call her. But agents we will not fail, we will bring those children to safety and then only then will I give the order for everyone to get in position."
"With that being said I want everyone of you to have two side arms, your Kevlar vest, gloves, boots, uniforms and helmets. Your face protectors, earpieces and glasses."
"Swat has protective shields we can use that will help us but might hurt us if we have to shoot someone."
"We will be heading to the pier at pier slots forty-four, forty-five and forty-six. That is where the ship will be docking at. We will have the containers in line and like a maze so we do not bring attention to ourselves. Hopefully no one will be on the docks after dark."
"Swat will be there at ten o'clock and the National Guard will be there at ten-thirty. We will arrive at eleven o'clock and finish setting the rest of the containers in line. We are also adding heavy covers hanging over the tops of the containers so no one can see what we are doing."
"The ship Candora will not dock until after midnight."
"There will be three men at the front of the container and they will lead the children into the container and there will be a female agent will meet the children and explain who they are and what is going to happen. We do not want the children more scared than they are already."
"The children will be led through the tunnel-like container out the back to the waiting doctors and nurses to be carried by bus to the hospitals to be checked out and find who each child is so their parents can be notified."
"Then and only then will we make ourselves visible. I will tell them they are surrounded and have no way out. We have divers in the water, snipers on rooftops and helicopters with snipers aiming their guns down at them. If they shoot or run, maim them. Do not kill them unless necessary." She says as she is walking around everyone and looking at them.
"Are there any questions or do we need more instructions?" She asks them.
"No Captain, I believe we know what we are supposed to do and how to carry out our mission safely. Do you all agree with me, agents?" Agent Morris asked them.
"Yes Agent Morris, we completely understand our mission. Captain Trevelyan you lead and we will follow." Agent Brody says.
"Alright then it is set we will leave Headquarters at ten-thirty. You all have a good day and I will see you all tonight." She tells them.
They all leave and now it is only Ana, Ray, the Director, Commander-In-Chief, Leader of Swat, Warden of the Penitentiary.
"Yes sir, can I help you gentlemen with anything else? You all do approve of my plan right?" She asks them.
"Yes Captain we do and I must say you have it down to a T. You know what you are doing and you have shown how determined you and your teams are to bring those children out safely. We are very proud and honored to be working with you Captain Trevelyan. Godspeed and be safe all of you and your team." This from the Director.
"Thank you Director and we will do our very best to bring them out safely and then try not to have any casualties of the scumbags." She says.
"Ray I must say when you said years ago she was just the young lady we needed to infiltrate some places for us. It was hard for me to believe but with you and President Johnson back then we listened to you. We trained her as well as you did and we do not regret one minute. We're very proud of this young lady that has been Captain for three years now. Wewill miss her dearly." The Director says.
"Thank you sir I did my best with her and you all brought her to where she is today. My little girl learned from the best and she is still learning. But as you all know she is hanging up her guns and going home after the Texas mission." Ray tells them.
"Yes we know and she will be missed at all the FBI Headquarters." They all speak at once.
"Alright Captain we are going to Headquarters you do what you need to do and we will talk tomorrow after this is all done." The President says.
"Yes sir, thank you all." She tells them as she gets up to walk them to the elevator.
They all leave.
"Well my dear daughter, are we ready to take them bastards down?" He says.
"More than ready daddy and I am so glad I have you here with me." She walks over and hugs him tight.
"Me to Annie, me too." He says hugging her.
Ana's phone is ringing.
"Hello this Captain Trevelyan who am I speaking with?"
"Captain Trevelyan this is Roger Phelps I am the assigned attorney for Mrs. Obaid. I would like for you to come to the FBI Headquarters so we can get a statement from her. She seems like she wants to talk." He tells her.
"Thank you sir and I will be there in a little while. I hope she is ready. I told her she was being recorded when she was put in the room and then again right before I left when she would not speak to me." She tells him.
"Yes I know and I am waiting on you so we can hear what she has been saying." He tells her.
"Very well sir I will be there in an hour." She tells him.
"Thank you Captain Trevelyan and goodbye,"
They hang up,
"Well that was Mrs. Obaid's appointed attorney. He said it seemed like she wanted to talk. We shall see. I have to be there in an hour. Go take a nap or meet the men and have lunch. I'll see you later tonight at Headquarters daddy I love you." She tells him pushing him toward the elevator.
"Okay, okay I am going and I love you too, my child."
The elevator doors close and she falls on the couch.
Man this is going to be a long day and it hasn't even started yet.
She gets dressed in her Captain's uniform and makes her way to Headquarters where her prisoner is waiting.
"Hello Captain Trevelyan, nice to see you today." Agent Porter says.
"Hello Agent Porter, nice to see you as well. I am here to see Attorney Roger Phelps. He has been appointed for Mrs. Obaid. Would you please tell him I am here and I will be waiting in the conference room for him." She tells him.
"Yes Captain and I have a video for you. One moment please." He walks to his office and brings her back a small usb to plug into the laptop in the conference room.
"Thank you." She tells him and walks off down the hall.
A few minutes later Roger Phelps knocks on the door.
She gets up to answer it.
"Come in Mr. Phelps. I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan. Please have a seat. We are fixin to listen to and see what Mrs. Obaid is up to. As I told you she knows she is being recorded sir." She tells him turning up the volume on the laptop.
"Oh my lord how in god names could she say something like that about any child. My god I have to calm down before I can go in there and talk to her." She stands up and grabs water out of the fridge.
"I understand and I am not sure I want any part of this, I will go in with you and see what she has to say. But I make no promises." He tells her.
"I completely understand because she is worse than dog shit on my shoe." She tells him walking around the room.
"How could anyone want to put a child to do manual labor like that. My god I can't do that kind of work. How does she expect a child that is not even a teenager to carry a hundred pound bag of feed or whatever on their back for ten miles? How can she even suggest putting the girls to work in brothels to serve the men that come there for food after they have sex with the women. It wouldn't be long before they were forcing the girls to have sex with them." She tells him.
"I am sick and disgusted about all of this Captain. They want to sell the children to kings and prince's. To do their bidding for them. Yeah I don't doubt their bidding will be on their backs being hurt. Why do they want these girls when they have their own women and young girls over there to do with as they see fit. The women over there know no better than to bow down to the men. The men think of them as cow dung. The girls are giving birth at eleven and twelve years old. That is so sick and sad." He tells her.
"You know you are not helping me calm down sir." She yells at him.
"Yes I know and I am sorry." He tells her.
"Well hell I am boiling mad let's go and chat with her. I might just get her mad enough to tell me where the bitch Queen and her two nurses are hiding." She tells him as she walks to the door and jerks it open.
"Agent Sadler, we would like to see the prisoner." She tells him, showing him her badge.
"Right this way Captain Trevelyan and Mr. Phelps." The agent leads them down the hall.
He opens the door and they walk in. Before the door closes she tells him to stay close by.
He nods his head and sits in the chair outside the door.
She walks with the attorney and they just stand there and look at the prisoner and wonder what she is thinking about with that evil grin on her face.
They continue to stand there and just look at her without saying a word to her. Finally the evil grin turns into a frown and she looks down.
The Captain is giving her the scare tactic it has always worked on other prisoners.
"Mrs. Obaid before we get started remember you are under arrest and anything you say can and will be used against you. You are being recorded as Mrs. Obaid. Your attorney is here with us. Mr. Roger Phelps."
"Please state your name, your country and that you understand you are being recorded." She tells her sitting down across from her.
"I do not have to give you any information. I will talk with my attorney alone." She replies very hatefully.
"Very well Mrs. Obaid you have that right but just remember we have all the information on you, your husband and all the men that were in the warehouse with you. As I said when I left last night you are being recorded. Everything you said last night we got this morning. So if you want to play cat and mouse with me that is fine. Just remember the truth will come out." She gets up and walks out the door.
"Now sir you will do as I say and listen to me. I need for you to get in touch with these ladies and have them get me out of here today."She tells him, giving him the names.
"Now why in the world would I do that? Who are these ladies you are speaking of? I am an attorney not your errand boy or messenger. I am sorry but you are not leaving and you will not speak to me in that tone Mrs. Obaid. I will be releasing myself as your attorney. Good day." He gets up and walks out the door slamming it behind him.
"Captain Trevelyan I just released myself from that woman." He tells her.
"Why sir?" She asks him.
"Because she told me to get in touch with two women and have them come and get her out of here." He looks at her and shakes his head.
"Oh my god is she crazy?"
"What are the ladies' names did she tell you?"
"Yes ma'am, they are nurses and they work in Pediatrics with children. Their names are Sheila Langston and Margo Hudson. Does either mean anything to you?" He asked her.
Yes, as a matter of fact they do. They are possibly working with the scum that took children in Charleston before we were ordered here. We took the bad guys down but we weren't able to talk to the nurses. They had disappeared. Now we know they are here in Florida."
"Well good luck getting any information out of that one." He says walking out the front door.
"Agent Ramsey." She says.
"Yes Captain Trevelyan." He replies.
"Do any of the men we brought in have an appointed attorney?" She asks him.
"Yes Captain, they are all asking for one. Haider Obaid got one this morning and he is still with him. A few others are waiting for theirs to come in today." He tells her.
"Would you please go and tell Mr. Obaid's attorney that I need to speak with him, it is very urgent?" She tells him.
"Yes ma'am I will go right now." He says walking away from her.
"Thank you." She replies.
She is standing in the hall when a tall gray haired gentleman walks up to her with Agent Ramsey by his side.
"Captain Trevelyan this is Attorney Maxwell Predue for Haider Obaid." He introduces them.
"Captain Trevelyan it is a pleasure to meet you. Now how can I be of service since you had your agent come and get me?" He says to her.
"Sir, I would like to speak to you for a few minutes about your client. I have information on his wife, Mrs. Aniyah Obaid." She tells him.
"Very well lead the way." He tells her.
They walk into the conference room and take a seat.
"One moment sir I will be right back." She walks out the door.
"Agent Ramsey do you have access to the recordings from Haider Obaid since he has been here sir?" She asks him.
"Yes ma'am I can get them for you. One moment." He walks down the hall and returns in a few minutes carrying three usb's.
"Everything that was said and done is on these usb's. Not only Haider Obaid but Halfiz Masad and Thanh Osamba, they are all talking and you need to hear what they are saying." He tells her.
She walks back into the conference room and puts the usb in the laptop and turns it on. They watch and listen but can not for the life of them understand why these people want to do this. It's not like their lives are threatened. Seems like they are doing it for the fun of it. They don't care what happens to the children as long as they receive compensation for it. Some want money, others the boys for work labor.
"I have heard enough. Have the guard bring Mr. Obaid in here." She says.
The attorney starts to get up but she tells him to stay seated.
She walks out the door and tells Agent Ramsey to bring the Obaid prisoner to them.
She walks back into the room and they wait.
The door opens and a very angry middle aged man with thinning hair and a goatee walks in looking like he is the king of the world.
'Hum time to bring him down a peg or two' she says to herself.
"Please handcuff him to the table Agent Ramsey." She tells him.
'I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI and as you know you are under arrest and have been read your rights. You also are aware that everything that was said in the room you were in last night and today has been recorded. You were told last night as you were put in the room and then again after you were processed." She tells him.
"Why are you questioning me? You are nothing but a woman. You are in a man's world. Women do not belong in law." He yells demandingly at her.
"Mr. Obaid, as I said, I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI and I will ask the question." She stands there looking at him.
"Mr. Obaid please state your full name and that you understand you are being recorded." She tells him.
"My name is Haider Obaid and yes I understand I am being recorded Captain Trevelyan." He glaring at her.
"Mr. Haider thank you. Now your attorney is present Mr. Maxwell Predue will be with us through this interrogation. If you feel like you need to talk to him all you have to do is ask and he will answer any questions you might have. If he feels like I am asking the wrong questions or misleading you he will tell you not to answer. As I said, everything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." She tells him again.
"Yes I know I heard you and I understand." He yells at her.
"Mr. Obaid, unless you change that attitude with me you will be going back to a cell. I do not have time to play games sir. I need answers and I need them now." She tells him looking at him.
"I don't know what you want to know." He says
"Why were you and the others in the warehouse? let's start with the questions there." She tells him bending down until they are eye level. She stares her famous Steele stare.
"I was just resting there and moving on the next morning before daylight." He looks at her and then away.
"Try again Mr. Obaid. You were there with your wife and twenty other men." She continues to stare at him, not batting an eye.
"I was there but not with the men and the woman is not my wife. She was walking on the street and I brought her back with me to have some fun." He says laughing.
"Mr. Obaid we know Mrs. Aniyah Obaid is your wife sir." His attorney speaks up.
"You are my attorney, you listen to me. I said she was not my wife." He raises his voice again.
"Excuse me for a moment." She walks out.
"This is highly irregular but I need to see Mrs. Obaid and take her to her husband. He is claiming she is not his wife and he picked her up on the street to have some fun he says." She tells the Director on the phone.
"Does he really believe that we will go along with that story? What is the attorney saying?" The Director asked her.
"He told him we know she is your wife. Mr. Obaid told his attorney that he was supposed to listen to what he said." She told him.
"Is he having a problem with you being in there Captain?" He asked her.
"Yes sir seems like women are not good enough to be in law or anywhere for that matter." She tells him rolling her eyes.
"I will meet you at Mrs. Obaid's door and we will see what he says after he sees her. Have the attorney walk out and make sure the security locks down her cuffs to the table away from her husband and they are outside the door. We can listen to what they say to each other." He tells her.
"Very good sir and thank you." She tells him.
Ana meets the Director at the prisoner's door.
"Sir she has no attorney now. Mr. Phelps walked out on her." She tells him.
"Yes Captain, I am aware of that. We will have to appoint another for her." He tells her.
"Agent Ramsey please open the door and bring the prisoner to her husband. He is in the conference room. Seat her away from him and lock down her cuffs on the table sir." he tells him.
"Yes sir." He opens the door.
"Mrs. Obaid, this is the Director of the FBI Mr. Benjamin Echols." He tells her.
"How are you doing Mrs. Obaid?"He asked her.
"I want to leave here. I have done wrong. This woman is holding me against my will. I want my husband. We have things to do and get ready for." She tells him looking at the Captain with hate in her eyes.
"Very well Mrs. Obaid, I will grant your request to see your husband. But for leaving her you will not be going anywhere." He tells her.
They walk down the hall to the interrogation room.
Ana and the Director leave and walk off.
Agent Ramsey opens the door and takes Mrs. Obaid to the table away from her husband and cuffs her down. He walks out the door and leaves them.
"Crazy woman, what the hell are you doing in here?" He yells at her.
She cowers before him and bows her head.
"I told them I wanted out of here and I wanted to see my husband. They said I could not leave but I could see you." She tells him.
"Crazy woman, they are trying to trap us." He continues to yell and slam his cuffs on the table.
"Why would they do that? The woman Captain is to stupid to do something like that husband. I want to go home to Yemen and we are not going to be able to go locked up in here." She tells him crying.
"Aniyah, please do not cry, we will get out of this mess somehow. I told them you were not my wife, you were just someone I picked up on the street to bring back to have fun with." He tells her to wait to see what she will say.
"You freaking idiot, why would you say something like that? I am your wife and have been for over twenty years. You took me to wife when I was thirteen years old you fool. Have you lost your mind man?" She glares at him and tries to get up but she can't.
"No, I was trying to get out of here before they found out what we are doing and who we are working for. I said I was just resting there in the warehouse and planning to leave next morning. They did not believe me." He tells her.
"Of course my love, they did not believe you a bit more than they believed me or the other men. We are not leaving here anytime soon. What is Queen Slovenia Padres going to think when we do not show up when she arrives to take the children on her ship the Tubor Carrier? We have to feed them tonight when the Candora docks." She tells him.
"Be quiet woman, I am trying to think." He yells at her.
"Husband, that is the second time you have raised your voice to me. It will not happen again or my father will know about it when I call him." She tells him
Now he bows his head.
"Please forgive me wife. I am just worried and very angry that they caught us." He tells her trying to make amends with her.
"Husband, it was your bright idea to go into town and shop and then get food for all of us. I told you not to but did you listen to your wife. No, you listened to all the men and forgot about me." She tells him yelling now.
"Be quiet, I have a headache and you are making it worse." He tells her.
"I want to know what we are going to do about getting out of this place, husband. We have a ship coming tonight and we have men that are waiting on the children. We have our nurses from the hospital who are bringing more children with them and our Queen." She glares at him hitting her fist on the table. Making all kinds of noise,
The door opens.
"What the hell is going on here? Sounds like you are trying to escape." The security guard says.
"We are not. I was upset at my husband for what he said." She told the guard.
"My wife tends to get upset easily. She does not like to be away from me." He says.
"Well keep it down in here before I tie you to the chair." He says slamming the door.
"See what you are causing with your big mouth woman?" He asks her.
"Me you have a big mouth too. I am glad we are not back on our land. I could not talk to you like this." She laughs.
"But when we are, you will be punished for your disobedience, mark my words wife." He tells her.
The door opens again.
"Now that we have established you are husband and wife we will be taking your wife back to her cell, not a room this time but a cell." She tells them.
"Husband, you can not let them take me to a cell. You have to save me." She screams at him.
"Wife, get out of here you are so demanding and so loud." He tells her.
"Take her away and take me back to my room." He yells at the Captain.
The guard unfastens Mrs. Obaid's handcuffs from the table and refastens them but before he can take her way she does the unthinkable: she reaches across the table and hits her husband in the face with her cuffed hands. Blood splatters and he screams.
Everyone just stands there stunned. It happened so fast no one could stop her.
Ana grabs her and throws her on the floor before she can do anything else to her husband.
"Wife, you will be severely punished for striking me." He looks at her with blood running down his nose.
"Mr. Obaid, we will continue the interrogation after you have been seen by the doctor." His attorney tells him handing him a cloth to stop the bleeding.
He tries to get up and get to his wife. Screaming and yelling at her. Calling her all kinds of names.
"Calm down sir before you are taken to your cell." His attorney tells him.
"You see husband Haider Obaid you are a weak man my father was right I am stronger than you. Just because you are the Queen's favorite cousin doesn't mean anything to me anymore. You are camel dung to me now." She says walking away.
"Captain, I am ready to talk and tell you whatever you want to know. Attorney Predue have a seat sir. I am tired of fighting and I am getting too old for this even though I am in my mid forties." He tells them.
"Mr. Obaid we have medical coming to check on you and then we will proceed if they say you are alright." She tells him.
There is a knock at the door.
"Yes, come in." Ana tells them.
"What do we have here Captain?" The male asked her.
"He was hit in the face by a prisoner with handcuffs on." She explains.
"Alright sir my name is Darrin I am a nurse now please sit still and let me check you. I will tell you now if you try anything I will put you on the floor. I am a black belt martial arts sir and you do not want to mess with me." He tells him walking over to him.
"I will not try anything." He tells him.
The nurse feels his face and around his nose. You can tell it is broken with the way it looks.
"Sir, we are going to have to fix your nose. Has it ever been broken before?" He asks him.
"Yes, many years ago. Go ahead, I know what you have to do." He tells the nurse.
"This is a simple fracture and I will call the doctor to come and repair it." He tells all of them.
"When the doctor arrives we will go to the infirmary here and set your nose." He tells him.
He calls the doctor and lets him know what is going on. He listens to what the doctor is saying.
"Captain Trevelyan please have two guards escort Mr. Obaid to the infirmary. The doctor is waiting on him.
"Yes Darrin one moment." She tells him.
She makes a call and two guards appear to walk the prisoner to the infirmary.
"Nurse Darrin please let us know when he is finished so we can take him to his cell." She says.
"Yes ma'am." He replies.
"No Captain, I want to tell you what you need to know after the doctor straightens my nose. This needs to be said today." He tells her.
"Very well Mr. Obaid if you are up to it we will proceed." She tells him.
The guards, prisoner and nurse walk out the door.
"My goodness sir, who or what hit you?" The doctor asks him.
Another prisoner sir who got a lucky shot." He says laughing.
"Well up on the table sir and let's straighten your nose. I see it has been broken before." He tells him.
"Yes sir, many years ago when I was younger." He tells him.
The doctor straightens his nose and packs it for him.
"Mr. Obaid, I suggest you go to your cell and talk to our Captain tomorrow." He tells him.
"Thank you sir but I feel alright and I need to talk to your Captain." He tells him.
"Jess, you and Ralph take Mr. Obaid back to the interrogation room. I will call our Captain and let her know he says he is alright and wants to talk." He tells them.
"Yes sir, come on Obaid let's go." They tell him.
They walk up the hall to the interrogation room and knock on the door.
"Come in." She tells them.
"Put him at the table and lock him down." She tells the guards.
"Yes Captain." They say.
The prisoner is locked down and the guards have left the room.
"Mr. Obaid, we are recording this interrogation. Are you up to continuing answering questions?" She asked him.
"Yes Captain Trevelyan I am ready and I feel fine." He replies back to her.
"Very well sir." She tells him.
"This is Captain Anastasia Trevelyan. We are going to continue our questioning of Mr. Haider Obaid. He is under arrest."
"Mr. Obaid state your name and that you understand you are being recorded." She tells him.
"My name is Haider Obaid and yes I understand I am being recorded." He tells her.
'Captain I would like to speak and tell you everything." He tells her.
"If that is what you want to do. You can speak with your attorney if you are not sure about this or if you need questions answered by him." She tells him.
"Thank you but I do not need to speak to him. I just want this done and over with. I have been doing this for many years and I am tired of it. I wish I never did it and I know my cousin is in deep trouble just like my wife. The men that are with us have been with my cousin since they were fifteen years old. They don't know anything else."
"I was helping my cousin's father when I was a young boy. I didn't get into this kidnapping until I was twenty-one. My uncle would not allow it.." He says
"Mr. Obaid, who is your cousin and is she the one your wife called the Queen?" She asks him.
"Yes Captain her name is Slovenia Padres and she has recently taken over operations since the passing of her father. She and her half brother Chandler Jarvis do not get along. It is worse now that their father has passed away. They fight all the time. I am tired of them acting like little kids."
"They are both trying to kill each other. I know this for a fact so don't look at me like that. That is the reason he is on the ship Tubor and she is living on here until the ship docks then they will all be going home." He tells them.
"Thank you for speaking up. Now I need to know what the plans are for the children that are coming in on the Candora?" She asks him.
"I will tell you and you must do something before she shows up in two days." He tells them.
"Why are you telling us all of this? Do you want immunity? Or are you scared of your cousin?"
"I need to know why Mr. Obaid." She tells him looking at the attorney.
"No, I do not want immunity. I know I am going to prison and I will be safe there. Yes, in a sense I am scared of them. They are very dangerous people and the ones working with them are ruthless. The men that are with me are some of the worst in our country. They would rather kill you than look at you."
"Yes I planned for someone to find us when I took my disobedient wife to town. I don't know how you found us but I thank you for finding us." He tells them.
"I am sorry for the way I acted earlier with you, Captain. I was just so wound up and I am glad you brought my wife in here. That gave me the chance to tell you everything." He says
"Mr. Obaid now that we know why you wanted to tell us all of this and we deeply appreciate it sir. We need to know what Slovenia Padres plans are and where we can find her and the nurses. Do you know where she lives here in Key West, Florida?" She asked him.
"She is planning on taking the kids here that comes in on the Candora tonight and putting them on her ship the Tubor Carrier along with twenty or so more young girls. Then they are going to Galvenston, Texas and dock at the port then pick up more kids. I do not know how many."
"She lives in a mansion on the East side of Key West in the Bahama Village she owns. Her mansion sits right on the beach. She lives by herself and her boyfriend comes to visit every weekend. She has bodyguards and they are always armed. The house sits on ten acres of land and it is gated." He tells them.
"Thank you Mr. Obaid, are there any other mansions and what do they look like?" She asks him.
"Oh no Captain, she has the only mansion in the village." He tells them.
"Do you know where the nurses live?" She asked him.
"Yes they live in a condo right beside the mansion. It has a red number 4 in the center of the condo. It is huge, you can not miss it." He tells them.
"Do they live alone or does someone live with them?" She asked him.
"They live alone. They have a housekeeper that comes in once a week to clean and that is every Friday morning." He tells them.
"Thank you." She tells him.
"What time Friday night will she be at the pier?" She asked him, looking at him.
"She is supposed to arrive at midnight and she is never late. She will have her guards with her. She always has five in front and five behind her with five hiding in the shadows trailing them." He says.
"When are the nurses supposed to arrive with the other children? Do you have that information?" She asked him.
"They will be there at one o'clock sharp in the morning." He said.
"Again Mr. Obaid, why are you doing this for us?" She asked him.
"Like I said I am through with them and want to be safe again. They do not know where we are and they can not get to any of us."
"I am not trying to set you up to be caught and hurt. I am telling you this because I want you to catch these bastards and throw the book at them. They need to be off the streets and the sea." He tells her, his attorney and now the Director.
"Sir if you are lying I will personally make sure you never see the light of day again. You will be so far down in the prison you will never come out. Do you understand me Mr. Obaid?" He raises his voice with authority.
"Yes sir I understand and I am not trying to hurt anyone. I am telling the truth." He says.
"Very well sir you are going to a jail cell where no one in that room can question you. I want you to write your confession and name names and places." He tells him.
"Yes sir, I will do that. I only write in Arabic." He tells them.
"That is alright we have everything you said recorded and we will have someone put your confession in English. Now they are going to take you to a cell and feed you. Whatever you would like and it is yours." He tells him.
"Thank you sir and Captain. I would like a double cheeseburger with the works and a chocolate shake." He tells them.
"That will be sent to you very soon." He tells him laughing.
The guards walk out with Mr. Obaid and Ana and the Director are still sitting there with the attorney.
"I believe he is on the up and up and not lying to us. I can read body language and he was scared shitless when you told him what you could do to him sir."She tells him.
"Well Captain, you have the information on where the Queen lives. Let's bring those children out tonight and take them down in two days. I thought about you going in and doing tomorrow but there are too many chances words can leak out and they change their plans." He tells her.
"Yes sir, I agree with you. Now I must go and fill my agents in on what is going down Friday. Have a good day, both of you." She says as she walks to the door.
"Sir, that young lady is the smartest woman I have ever met. She knows what she is doing and knows how to get it done." He tells him.
"Yes Maxwell she is and I am very proud of her but she is leaving us and following the leads to Texas. Then she is retiring permanently this time." He tells him with a sad look.
They walk out of the interrogation room and say goodbye.
Ana walks out of the interrogation room and waiting to take her back to the hotel is none other than Agent Morris and Brody.
"Well hello fellows are you lost or waiting on someone?" She asked them, smiling.
"Funny Captain, we were waiting on you." Morris says.
"Well let's go then I am hungry and I have a lot to tell everyone. Call or text and have them meet us in my hotel room. Tell them we are having food delivered." She tells them.
"Yes Captain and what is going on?" Brody asked her.
"You all will know very soon and we are going to take down some despicable villains." She says looking at them.
They just look at each other and don't question their Captain.
They walk into her room from the elevator and take a seat.
"I need to take a shower y'all. Would y'all order a variety of foot long sub sandwiches, chips, dill pickles, cookies and whatever else you might think we will need. Have it catered to my room. Tell them if they make it fresh and quick there will be an added bonus on their tip. That always works. Don't tell who it is for. Just give a name." She tells them.
She says as she walks off into the bedroom.
By the time she is finished the food has arrived and most of the agents are here.
"Welcome everyone. I hope you all like sub sandwiches and the works." She tells them looking around her room.
"Yes ma'am that is fine with me. How about you all?" Ray says.
"Very good choice Captain thank you." Cora says.
"Alright it is close to six o'clock. I didn't know it was that late but I have been at Headquarters interrogating prisoners. Let me tell you it has been a doozy of a day." She says.
"Eat up everyone. There is a lot to discuss and go over for tonight." She says in between bites.
"Now we know that the Candora will be docking tonight at midnight. We will be there at eleven to finish setting up the containers and the tarps as cover."
"I want Morris, Bandry and Simmons front and center for when the Candora docks. You three will be the ones that will take the children off the dock as they come off the ship."
"Donovan, Johnson, Smith, Dawson, Brock, Barrows, Crankston, Felton and Bailey. I want you all strategically placed through the containers so you all can tell the children who you are and that they are being taken to safety and the hospital to be checked over."
"McKnight, Mark, Thatcher, Binks, Conrad, Scotts and Grant. I want you all on the closest rooftops to the docks as you can get without being seen."
"Freemont, Tomlin, Rivers, Cain, Jonas, Eaves, Adams, Freeman you all will be close by at the warehouse with your guns pointed at the ship."
"Cruz, Tames, Preston, James, Stranger, Everrett, Osmond, Avery eyes on the ship do not go past pier slot 44, 45, 46 stay in range of my voice. Don't forget your earpieces and glasses. Your suits, and all your safety gear."
"Brown, Arnold, Carter, Jacobs you all will go to the hospital with the children. The doctors' names are Yellowstone and Standridge, both male. The nurses' names are Keller, Burns, Hill, Lovingood, Weston and Burks all female. They have to show you all their ID's before they can touch the children.
"We are going to take the children to safety and then after they are all gone to the hospital." She tells everyone.
"Steele, OBarr, Carr, Owens, Fields, Branson, Avery, Giles, Bottoms, Sheffield, Raines, Kennedy and Cromer you are all with me as we wait and watch all the children being led to safety. Then and only then will I announce myself to the ones on the ship. We have four agents on that ship and you all have their names and photos."
"We have Swat and The National Guard in our backdoor and on each side. We have divers in the water and choppers in the air."
"Captain the speedboats have been taken care of." Richards tells her.
"Thank you Agent Richards for that information. I was hoping they were made inoperable." She says.
"Alright it is now. She looks at her watch.. seven- forty-five we have a meeting with Swat. They will be coming up to explain their part in this mission."
"We have the Army trucks ready at a moment's notice to come in and take the scumbags to the Military carrier. Peterson, Graves, Horton, Bagley, Toombs and Rider I want you all on the carrier to the prison." She tells them.
"Does everyone know where they will be and what they will be doing?" She looks around the room and they all nod and say yes Captain.
"Now I am going to sit down right here by my daddy and have a cookie." She tells them all giggling.
"My lord Annie Rose there ain't no grass gonna grow under your feet. You are on the ball with everything. I am extremely proud of you." He says kissing her temple.
"Thank you daddy but as I have always said it is my job and I will do it to the best of my ability. I am not doing this mission for flowers and kudos or anything else. No medals or badges. I am doing this mission and everyone I have done because I want to help the ones that need rescuing and bringing down the bastards that need to rot in hell." She tells him.
"Well said Captain Trevelyan. I could not have said it better myself," The leader of Swat said as he walked in off the elevator.
"Thank you sir," She said.
"Hello Mr. Manchester, would you like something to eat or drink sir? We have plenty." She tells him.
"A bottle of water would be appreciated, Captain." He tells her.
"Agents I would like for you to meet my right hand man Oscar Beardon and he will be leading the team tonight. I will be there but I will monitor from the van with all the surveillance equipment we have already set up at the pier." He tells them.
"Captain Trevelyan it is a pleasure to meet you young lady. I am honored to be a part of this mission you have so carefully executed and the plans you have made from the execution and I for one am waiting on the closure when this mission is done. I could not have planned this mission any better than you did my dear." He tells her
"Nice to meet you as well Mr. Beardon and thank you sir." She tells him.
"Everyone, may I have your attention please. We have the leader of Swat Landon Manchester and his right hand man Oscar Beardon. They have the floor. Good thing my throat is a little parched." She says laughing.
"Seriously though, let's take the time to listen to what they have to say. You all know they are going to be with us tonight and keep us as safe as possible." She says.
"Agents I am Oscar Beardon and I am glad we got to meet before this mission as there are a few points I would like to cover." He tells all of them.
"Alright now we have put up surveillance cameras in different areas of the docks inside the pier and outside. We will have men and women inside the vans monitoring the cameras. We will have our teams placed strategically throughout the pier and close to the docks." He says.
"The speedboats are disabled correct Captain?" He asked her.
"Yes, they are my agents disabled them earlier." She tells him.
"Good, good we do not want anyone getting away."He tells everyone.
"My understanding Captain is when the children are on the buses and away that is when you make yourself visible to a point. You are going to announce yourself and your agency correct?" He says looking at her.
"Yes sir, you are correct on both points." She tells him.
"Very good and we will be ready to protect you and your team. If it comes down to it the bastards will be shot to protect each of us." He tells them all.
"Yes sir if they do not cooperate there will be gunfire I have no doubt. I hope no casualties but you never know with sick people like the ones on the ship."She tells him.
"How well I know Captain." He replies.
"Alright it is time for us to go and get our team ready. Everyone be safe and do not take any chances." He tells them all.
"You will not see us but we will be able to see you all." He tells them.
They leave and the team sits around and talks for a while.
"Alright it is time to go and get ready for this dangerous mission we are about to undertake. Everyone has earpieces, glasses and safety gear. Move out and meet back in my room in one hour." She tells them all.
They all walk to the elevator and so many at a time get on. It's a bit of a process but safer for them.
They are all ready to go and get those precious children out of harm's way.
"Alright everyone let's do this. Daddy, would you like to say your prayer for everyone?" She walks over to him.
"Yes I would and everyone bow their heads please."
'Dear heavenly father, I come to you on bended knees asking for your guidance and your bright shining light to help us succeed in this mission and save innocent children. I also come to you so that this mission will be safe and with no casualties if we can help it. Father watch over each and everyone of us and those that are helping in this mission to make it successful. Thank you father and Amen.'
"Amen, Amen." They all say.
"Alright let's do this." She says.
They walk over to the elevator and go down and once the last ones are off they take a ride in the buses that will take the kids to the hospital.
They take up their position to finish the placements of the container and wait for the ship Candora to arrive.
"Captain, this is Landon Manchester. The Candora will be docking in ten minutes. Everyone be prepared for anything." He tells them.
"Thank you Manchester."
"Alright teams you heard our birdie is ten minutes out." She tells them.
"Ten-four Captain, we have eyes on them from the rooftops." Brody says.
"They will be docking in five, four, three, two, one." Morris says.
"Everyone into position. Ladies ready in the containers?"
"Ten-four Captain." They say.
"Alright they are bringing the children up top. My lord bless their little hearts." Someone says.
"They are leading them off and the children have ropes around their waist. No shoes on. God I want one minute with these bastards." Someone says.
"They are walking down the dock to the containers. Be alert everyone and no sudden moves." The Captain tells them.
"So good so far no one has noticed anything out of the ordinary. They are leading the children to us. The man in front has stopped and he is looking around. Now he is walking toward us Captain."
"He has handed the lead rope off to Morris and is talking to him."
"You there come here?" The man tells Morris.
"Yeah, what do you want? I need to get the children to the warehouse before someone sees them. You do not want Queen Slovenia to know you are holding up progress do you?" He looks him in the eyes.
"No, no. Come on you mangy mutts in you go. Keep walking, go on ain't nobody gonna hurt you." The man tells them.
As they go in the containers they are met by the lady agents and spoken to and let them know they are safe again.
The children are still worried but can't blame them at all.
They make it to the last container and the doctors, nurses and agents are waiting on them. They are put on the buses and driven to the hospital.
"Captain, that seemed too easy to me." Morris said.
"Yeah Morris I agree with you."
"Alright everyone be ready for anything on my count of ten. Ten, nine, eight, seven. six, five, four, three, two , one." She says.
"Everyone hands in the air and drop your weapons, you are all under arrest for kidnapping these children. Sex Trafficking is a crime. This is Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI. You are surrounded no way to escape. We have you covered in the air, on land and in the water. Come off the ship, hands in the air, no sudden moves or you will be shot."
"We have orders to bring you in alive or dead. I would prefer alive."
She is watching them closely and they are looking at each other and nodding.
"Alright everyone get ready I don't think they like us. guns ready and unlocked. Let's take the bastard down."
Gunfire could be heard for miles. The agents had silencers on their guns. The gunfire continued and the agents were knocking them down like dominos. They didn't want to give up and they were all fighting to the death.
"Captain behind you."
She turns and shoots him in the arm. He keeps coming and she shoots him in the leg. He goes down and drops his gun she kicks it out of the way.
"Morris to your right." " Bandry to your left," She yells at them.
"Captain on your left."
She turns and sees the whites of his eyes. He raises his gun and aims it at her. She looks him in his eyes and shoots him point blank in the side of his head. He is dead before he reaches the ground.
She shot him dead.
"Captain, look out, get down we got one that thinks he can fly."
The fool is shooting and trying to hit the Captain. She aims and he falls to the ground.
"Captain, I see our agents, they have some of the bastards down on the ground."
"Donovan get down?"
The captain shot him between the eyes.
"You bitch that was my brother. I am going to make you suffer before I kill you."
"I don't think so." She shoots his gun out of his hand and he runs toward her bleeding. He reaches for her but she is too quick and brings his legs out from under him. He grabs a knife from his back and tries to stab her.
She sees the desperation in his beady watery brown eyes. Either kill or be killed.
Captain waits for an opening. When he raises his arm she shoots him in his chest and he goes down.
"Captain, Ana." The voice sounds worried.
"Ana knows something is wrong from the sound of her voice.
She looks around and sees one of the bastards has Paula on the side of the ship with a gun to her head.
"Stay calm my friend do not move. I got you. When I nod my head do like you are falling. The bastard is going down."
Ana nods her head, Paula starts to fall and the bastard doesn't have a shield anymore. He is still too close to Donovan
"Bitch you let my men go and maybe I will give your agent back to you. She is a pretty little thing. I might get big bucks for her."
She looks him dead in the eye showing no fear and raises her gun and blows his head off.
"Not in this lifetime you will never touch my sister you fucking bastard." She says as she shoots him.
"Damn what shooting Captain."
"Do we have to kill more of you before you surrender? I am all for getting rid of you sick bastards."
"Open fire boys take that bitch and her fools down." Another one says to the side.
"Captain, we got you all covered. Hit the deck now, all of you."
Gunfire went on for minutes and could have lasted ten minutes, an hour or longer. They had no way of knowing.
All anyone heard was damn I'm hit. I'm hit. Shoot them damnit shoot them all. They heard falling and a lot of screaming as they were shot and falling to the deck.
All of a sudden it was quiet. Ana looked up and all she saw was men standing in front of her. Swat and the National Guard. They were rounding up the bastards and tying ropes to their wrist to follow each other.
"Now you know how those children felt tied up, you sorry excuse for a human being."
"Search them , take their phones, wallets and put them all in a bag for the agents to take with them."
"Just one damn minute. Who the fuck do you think you are coming here and killing and maiming my men?" He yells at her.
"I am Captain Anastasia Trevelyan of the FBI and you sir are under arrest for kidnapping and Sex Trafficking as all your men are. Now step off the ship and with your hands above your head. Now and no sudden moves. We have a lot of itchy fingers."
"I am the owner of this ship and you will not do anything to me."
He reaches behind him and pulls a woman in front of him. Holding his hand around her neck.
"Yeah as I said sorry sick bastards. Let the woman go, she has done nothing to you."
"Oh no she is my protection off this ship and to the Queen. She is coming with me."
"Captain, I have a perfect shot at him. He has no weapon." Brody says.
"Take the bastard down but alive Brody."
"Aww okay Captain."
The shot came out of nowhere and the bastard went down. He was shot in his leg and he screamed bloody murder. You would think he was dying.
The woman ran off the ship into the arms of the Captain.
"Thank you , thank you."
The Captain patted her back.
"You are safe now. Are there any other women on the ship? Is there anyone hiding that you know of?" She asked her.
"Just the women they have with them. There are five women and they are down below in the bottom of the ship. They are workers or something. I don't know about anyone else." She tells her.
"Are you alright?" She asks her.
"Yes ma'am I am fine. They didn't hurt me. They took me when I tried to save one of the children they grabbed." She told her.
"Agent Dawson, come and help her to the van." The Captain says.
"Alright let's hope that is all of them. There are five women down below in the bowels of the ship. They are workers or something. Sweep the ship and be careful you never know what is on there hiding."
"Good work teams and Swat thank you for saving our lives." She tells them.
"Anytime Captain."
"I need a count of the casualties and injuries. Any of our team injured or hurt?" She asked.
"No one was hurt."
"That is awesome news."
"Captain out of eighty - four men there are twenty-five casualties and twelve injuries non life threatening."
"Very good team, very good. A good day with no injuries, Time to see the ones that lived off to the trucks."
They walk over to where the men are being loaded on the trucks.
"They say you are the Captain?" He asked her.
"Yes and who the hell are you?"
"I am the leader of this group and you will pay for what your team has done."
"Whoever you are, you and your men will pay not us. You were stupid for grabbing my agent. You sir are going down with the rest of your group. Now I will ask again who are you?" She gets in his face.
He just looks at her and smiles then spits in her face.
She smiles back and lifts her and cold cocks him and the bastard goes down.
"Now last time. Who am I fucking talking to?" She asks him.
"None of your business but you will know soon enough."
"Get them out of here." She tells the men that are loading them in the trucks.
"Yes Captain."
Well folks that is all for this chapter. The children are safe and on the way to the hospital. The bastards are either alive or dead. I would say the majority didn't make it dumb bastards.
Hope you enjoyed this chapter. Mercy it is a long one. I couldn't find a good stopping place until now. Wow over 18,000 words. Goodnight, good morning.
Chapter 36 coming up.
Thank you for the reviews and love.
Linda
