9 Chapter 9

It's been three weeks, they haven't witnessed another kill, three weeks of intense investigation of the death of Mrs Alexander. Three stressful weeks to find solid evidence against Custom Jaynes Lanigan. Any foolish movement, or rush in the case would bring the FBI and departments into huge trouble. They'd be charged for false  accusation, and negligence. Intense searching was performed by the FBI, for any trace of Elliott and his men. The search extended to other states in the US. Both detectives, and CEO'S concured that Elliot was  on a hideout.

    Elliott and his men knew everything that happened in the department from Mexico, he knew about the crate of narcotics they found on the ship. He knew they were planning on a way to prosecute his father... He knew everything, as well as his father. Thanks to their inside man at the department . They arranged a meeting with custom Jaynes at his house, but this time not a friendly one. They are here for evidence. Two guards excorted them inside as usual, and stood behind them, as Patrick came out with a white robe. He smiled, and sat down.

Brianna and Luis weren't on police uniform, neither were they on police vest. They dressed casually. Brianna wore a long black jacket, white top, tight black trousers and black hills. Her hair was unpacked. She sat with her legs crossed. Luis wore almost the same thing, but was not with any jacket, just a cigar on his mouth to warm his self from the cold.

"To  what do I owe this pleasant vist?".  Patrick smiled.

"We came to thank you for your cooperation and support to the FBI we checked the sagged ship, after much investigation, we found out that custom Betsey Rivers was responsible for the sagged ship." Luis said.

"Oh really?", Patrick smiled. "I suspected such" . He gave his guards a sign, and they left the room, with the door locked behind them gently. Patrick went  to the counter, to pour drinks, Brianna quickly fixed the digital audiotape under the table. Patrick turn quickly as he heard a sound, but she was already seated. He brought the drinks, and placed it on the table.

"Cheers, to success!"  Patrick smiled.

They took the glass of wine, and hit it together, It made a cling sound.

  They emptied the content and placed the glass on the table. Patrick dropped his, thou he took few seaps. He smiled menacingly.

"You FBi are group of amatures, do you think you can fool me?". He laughed. "Don't worry, it won't take time for drug to effect."

"You coward!, You drugged us!".

"Yeah! I know you guys have found out that I killed Mrs Alexander, and I'm a drug dealer. Well, I'm not surprised I knew all along. I know your every move FBI, and I also know you are planning to plant a recorder at my house. Too late now, isn't it?." He laughed loudly.

"Custom Jay...jaynes! You'd never get a...away with this!"  Luis mumbled slowly, with dizziness.

"You were a good man custom Jaynes, why did you change to a drug dealer, and murderer". Brianna said. Her words was barely audible, as she coughed several times.

"People do change."Patrick said, and there was silence. They've pass out. Patrick removed the mask, and called his guards to put them on the truck. They drove off.

Luckily for them, they placed the recorder earlier, the police heard their conversation, dozens of police cars raced fort for the rescue they blocked all major and main route of Los Vegas, helicopters were also on a look out for the vehicle.

   The truck was black, with tinted glass.

The same truck Elliott and his men used to attack the River's at their mansion.

  One of the helicopter spotted the truck heading towards the main route he signaled them, five flashy patrol cars raced fort, with loud sirens.

  The truck ran with great speed, it hit the two patrol cars that blocked it's way and continued with almost it's maximum speed.

  The other five patrol cars on the pursuit slowed a little and passed the obstruction. One was unlucky, he collided forcefully with the damaged patrol car.

   The truck was on a high speed,  the chase was  epic.

   Oliver lead the FBI units from the helicopter...he monitored every move from the helicopter, Sarah also helped to inform the police the necessary precaution to take when the truck reached thier direction.

   A Stinger spike system was deployed by two police officers as the truck approached thier destination with a vigorous speed. It's used to flatten the tires of vehicle attempting to evade the police. This device have been used by the police department in the United States for many years now, to capture speeding criminal cars without getting the occupants injured.

They were stored in portable carring case in the trunk of the  patrol cars, the officer brought it out and deployed in 3 sides to ensure effectiveness, depending on the size of the tires.

Sarah informed the other patrol cars in pursuit of the truck that the spikes have been deployed. They slowed down, and gave the truck a little space to avoid collision and any damages to Luis and Brianna.

  The vehicle was on full speed and passed the spikes as intended, it  puntured the tires  it  inhibits the driver ability to drive the vehicle, the truck slowed down, then finally stopped... the tires made a thick black print on the well  tyed road smell of burnt tires were perceived. The FBI came down from the patrol car with their guns held firmly on thier hands. They surrounded the car and pointed the gun at the driver as he open the door and brought out his head.

   "Hands were I can see them, and get on your knees!" One of the Detective shouted. The driver obeyed and knelt down. His hands were cuffed quickly.

The other officer opened the back door and was shot down with a riffle

Another came to the rescue and was shot too

The cops rained bullets on the victim as he stepped out of the car with the riffle. The other back door was opened quickly and a man ran out of the vehicle, he was shot on the leg and he fell down.

At this point, the FBI surrounded the car, but they didn't see Luis and Brianna, niether was Patrick in the car.

  Patrick had switched cars under a bridge before the patrol cars arrived, he passed the police, without being suspected.

   He took Luis and Brianna to one deserted building in the woods,

That's where he keeps his victim as hostage. He calls it the death chamber, because all the people he held hostage in that building never survived. They died a slow and painful death, he enjoyed watching them scream in pains mostly, he amputate some of thier body part. Precisely fingers, hands or sometimes the full arm if the person plays tough.

Luis and Brianna were tide up together with a chair, backing each other.

     A pile of water was emptied on thier faces, they woke up forcefully.

"Welcome Luis to my death chamber he laughed menacingly

"Custom Jaynes, why are you doing this?"

"I know you guys must've found every evidence against me, and waiting for the time to bring me down. But before then, you and your pretty little partner are gonna have to die first"

"You can't escape this Mr Jaynes, the cops would find you soon!" Brianna shouted

After a long and annoying laugh, Patrick responded "I'm always one step ahead of the FBI, I have trusted source in there" He laughed again. "I think you should meet someone before I carry on with what's in store for you." He pointed, Luis looked to see what he was pointing at. He was shocked with outmost disbelief at what he saw.

  "Agent walker!?" He said slowly with bewilderment. "It's been you all this while? So you are the traitor, how could you do this!"

  Walker smirked as he came closer. He dragged Luis by the jaw and gave an angry look.

  "You killed my wife when in pursuit of a criminal. You fired a bullet at the criminal but missed! That bullet ran  through my wife's chest you bastard!" He said as tears dropped out of his eyes..."She was pregnant! You killed her, and you kept it a secret from me and everyone else just to save yourself!" He let go of Luis's jaw, took few steps backwards and cried.

  Patrick sat at a chair with a pistol on his hand, and his leg crossed. With a smile, he was enjoying the show

  "I never did such, I agreed I missed the target, but I can assure you the bullet didn't hit anyone" Luis said innocently.

Walker ran a heavy blow on his chin

"Lier!" He shouted. Luis spat out blood " They told me everything, with proof. Everything is clear now.

  "Can't you see they are using you?" Brianna spoke up.   "They are framing Luis for what he didn't do"

  "Walker, we have worked together for so many years, you know I can't do such. I'm not the one responsible for her death. I understand what you are going through, but you gonna take things slow and think man! They are using you!"

"Yeah, have you ever tried impact on agent walker, he was silent for a while thinking. Patrick saw they were entering into his head he quickly stood up and dragged him backwards.

"They are trying to cover up for thier mistakes, you shouldn't listen to them." Walker was silent.

  "Was it possible that they are the ones that shot my wife as Luis released his bullet, and made it seem like the bullet came from his gun? It was the bullet from the Glock 19 pistol he used for the mission that day, could they have used the same gun just to frame Luis?" He taught.

  He taught of possibilities of this being true, it was a complex problem requiring a clear head. He secretly took out his phone and gave a distress call to the department. It's a call the officers use to indicate they are in danger. He quickly slide his phone down his back pocket, as they tracked the phone's location.

   He was handed a gun and told to kill Luis. He took the gun slowly from Patrick, with a little delay, held it to Luis's head, hoping the nearest police department arrive soon.

  "Shoot him now!" Patrick shouted. Luis looked straight to Walker's eyes without a blink   "Shoot him now, or you die in his place!" Patrick held a gun on Walker's head. "You have three seconds, trust me, I won't hesitate to pull the trigger. Don't let your wife death go to waste!"

  Patrick started to count down, Walker was praying the police show up in any moment. The final count was interrupted by a gun shot one of the guards dropped dead dozens of police entered trooped into the building, there was fire exchange.

Patrick escape with two of his body guards through the back door, the entered the car and zoomed off.

  The police killed twelve gang members and arrested six. Luis and Brianna were cut loose

   "Thanks for understanding Walker".

"I did this just because of old times Luis" He was cuffed and dragged towards the car

   "Walker!" They turned "I assure you, custom Jaynes is behind your wife's death, I'd get him to confess, even if it's the last thing I do" Luis said.

  Walker nodded and was dragged into the police car. Luis and Brianna watched the car move.

  Luis took another look at the building again, and entered another car with Brianna, they drove off.
