The sun peeked from behind the clouds to brighten my room. My dad and brothers woke up to get ready for work. He went into the kitchen. All of the coffee pots are on the counter. Kitchens are smelling good with breakfast.

" Good morning Dad," I greeted.

" Morning Kid," he replied.

Our apartments and house are now alive and noisy. I made three lunches to put our names on it. As my hot chocolate is handed to me. This is copied by our teammates. Our meals are in their final minutes on the stoves.

Breakfast is promptly served at 7:45 California time. Everyone dished out our food to eat. The team sat in our assigned seats at the tables. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sink.

The team grabbed their belongings that morning. Later on, we locked our front doors. All of them went to our cars and trucks. Our apartments and houses are now left vacant. We head to our missions that morning.

A few minutes after that I went to my morning class. My classmate and I sat down at our workstation. I plugged in my headphones. Our classroom is full soon that morning. Attendance is taken by the teacher. Classwork is explained and handed out. We worked on it together.

Hondo drove himself to work. Minutes after that he puts away his food in the kitchen and then changes in the locker room. The guys did the same greeting with each other. Later on, they meet up with us.

"Good morning team," they greeted.

" Morning guys and Chris," Luca replied to them.

They gave her kisses on her cheek.

Everyone went into the briefing room. At least one teammate looks at my empty corner. The team talks it over with each other. Assignments are handed out. My family left for the mission.

Black Betty is nice and full. The guys and Peggy are in their places. Jokes are cracked and laughter is loud. Luca pulls into the crime scene.

Meanwhile back over at headquarters that morning. Captain Cortez is working in the situation room. Within minutes Hicks greets her. He took a tablet and com set. They are working very hard together.

Headquarters bound for me that afternoon. Of course I felt like was being followed. I did a heat run and text my brother.

text

Me: Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

Jimmy: What is it Dreamer?

Me: someone is tailing me.

Jimmy: You heading back to work

Me: Like I always do on a Wednesday

End of texting

Peggy looks at the screen on his phone. She called you by what we do. I know for a fact that Dreamer doesn't do that often.

They looked at my sister with wide ?.

"What?" Daddy asked.

" Just very surprised," Peggy replied.

You know there's a first time for everything Chris.

I am minding my own business. This random man came up to my ?. He wanted me to get out. Minutes after that I did as he told me. The cold gun is pressed against my temple.

Back with the person that is holding me at gunpoint. I fought them off twice. They grabbed me in a rough way. With the attacker grabbing me in a rough way. My attacker left handprints on my arm. Eventually I tried talking him down. He kept getting mad.

No, you listen to me. I am shaking at this moment. The gun changes places. He pulled the trigger when I kicked him in the privates. Of course, this makes his gun drop to the sidewalk.

The cop questioned me. I am very impressed with how you handled this situation. As he bends down to pick up the gun.

"Thank you, I am a retired FBI agent," I told him.

"You're welcome," the cop replied.

I will take you there just to get into the car.

"By the way, where are you these days?" The cop asked.

" LAPD SWAT. I am an official part of the team. They are my family," I replied to him.

Soon after that Mikey sends me the address to my favorite bakery. I turn off the car and leave the GPS on the phone. One of the customers leaving knocks on the window. The owner wants you to come inside. I did what the owner asked and locked the door.

Black Betty is full of extremely sweaty and tired cops. It is parked in front of the building. The team took their quick showers. A short debrief on the mission is made.

They met up with Cortez and Hicks in the situation room. He spoke up T is usually here by now.

"Yeah, we know. I have texts from her," Captain America told them.

" Both of you go find your sister and Erica please go with them," he replied.

My siblings and Erica drove in the same car.

Chapter 142: Followed part 2

Within minutes they pulled up in front of the bakery. All of them got out of the car. The girls paid for what I had since I got there. Captain America sits at my table and turns off the GPS on my phone. We are here to take you home.

Peggy is sitting in the front seat. I am loaded into the back seat. Captain America slid in next to me. As Erica is following behind us in our car. Once again this time headquarters bound for me that afternoon.

We parked in front of the building. My siblings took me inside. Erica took my bag from the back seat. She locks the car and puts the keys in my bag. Later on, Erica joins us inside.

Lunch is promptly served at 12:00 pm California time. Everyone took out their food from the fridge. The team sat in our assigned seats at the tables. Conversations are going on throughout our group. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we threw away our trash in the bins.

We head upstairs to meet with Hicks. The pair of us settled down on the couch. Hicks sat across from us. A protective arm is wrapped around me. Captain America answered the questions. Meanwhile elsewhere in the building the team is working. Tan and Deke head to the bakery. Both of them get the footage. Soon after that they return to work. Luca ran the plate and the result came up quickly.

As we arrive in the morning we'll find this person. Captain America still has me in his arms.

"ow!" I signed.

"There's bruises on her arms," Captain America replied.

I am still not talking. Only signing which Captain America translates for me.

"You did good today," my family congratulated me.

" I know… My training never fails," I signed.

Everyone grabbed our stuff in the locker room. We exchanged our goodbyes to each other. Hybrid Mike and I were the only ones that didn't say anything. They talked for an extra five minutes. Our headquarters and parking lot is now a ? town.

Luca drove us home that afternoon. The Love birds are now behind us. We put down our bags by the door. I took a quick bath. Meanwhile with Luca at the stove cooking. Captain America sets our kitchen table.

Dinner is promptly served at 6:00 pm California time. Everyone dished out our food to eat. Our drinks are ?ￂﾠ for the grown ups and ? for the kids. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sinks.

We broke up into our usual boys vs girls groups. Chris and Tan cleared the tables. I wiped down every surface with a rag. Annie washes the dishes. All the kitchens are clean now.

I am going to get some ?. Luca puts it in a Ziploc bag. We keep switching between my arms until it melts. As Duke is the cleaning crew for the dripping ?ￂﾠ . Fowler will give you a full check at the office tomorrow.

Family time continues in front of the tv. We shared our favorite tv show with the group. I walked over to our room to change into my jammies and brush my teeth. Later on, I returned to both our couch and my favorite spot. I am nice and cozy.

"Goodnight guys," I told them.

"Night Sis," they replied.

The mute on the tv is turned on. Minutes after that I opened up about what happened to me earlier today.

"You know that you could've just told Hicks yourself," Captain America stated.

"I know I was still in shock and scared," I answered.

Once I was done they turned the volume on again. I found paper to write down my statement for my brothers.

There's a short bathroom break. I jumped into our bed. Simba is in my arms. Counting sunglasses time begins right now. Within seconds I am fast asleep. Captain America changes quickly. Of course Duke is with him. He realizes that I am ?ￂﾠ . Captain America whispers reassures to me. I am slowly wrapped in his safe and warm arms.

Meanwhile with the team still watching tv. As the laughter is dying down slowly now. Our tv sets and family room lights are turned off. The head to their own bedrooms. Everyone else joins us in dreamland that night.
