"Buttercup, no. No begging, boy" Mateo told him as he ate his cereal he shook his head and dug into the box before reading him it "Okay, but don't tell Cap, okay? Good boy."

"Did you just feed buttercup your food" y/n asks walking into the room

"Uh nope not at all" Mateo shakes his head. A knock on the door interrupted their conversation, the two looked at eachother confused before y/n opened the door Mateo following

"Hello, Detective Brice, Austin PD." One of them says before shoving in between the two "We have a warrant to search the premises."

"I think you guys must have the wrong address." mateo scoffs as the two look at each other confused once again

"All right folks, we are looking for wire cutters, ignition devices, circuit breakers, ethanol-based gel fuels." One of them looks around ordering them all

"Wait. Can you guys at least wipe your feet? Cap is very-" Mateo begins to tell them but they just dump things out into the counter "Never mind."

"Yo! Hello?" Y/n says to them all saving her hands

"I need a forensic photographer now."

"Will somebody tell us what this is about?" Y/n asks them but no one answers

~~~

"No, I'm telling you, it was like a full-on raid, it was like something out of Scarface." Mateo said as he made his tea

"They ransacked the place." Y/n shook her head

"Why the hell were they even there?" Tk asks pacing the room

"I don't know. They wouldn't tell us anything." Y/n shrugs

"They can't do that, can they?" TK looks at them all

"You see what the police took out of the house?" Judd asks them two

"Not much." Y/n shakes her head "Some charred lamps, extension cords, some jars with some liquid."

"Wait. Jars of liquid?" Paul steps forward "What kind of liquid?"

"No idea." Mateo stirs his tea "Oh, and they took, like, this big burned woodwork thing that I guess he was keeping behind the garage."

"How big are we talking?" Marjan asks

"Uh, it was like yea high, yay wide." Mateo uses his hands to explain

"So maybe he was building a shelf or something." Marjan shrugs

"It would have been a pretty crappy shelf." Y/n tells them

"Maybe that's why he burned it." Marjan offers

"I'm gonna try him again." TK dials caps number

"And Cap never talked to you about any of this?" Marjan leans forward to the two

"None of it." Mateo tells her quietly

"Yeah, but why would he keep it a secret?" Paul asks

"I have an idea." Judd tells them causing them to look at him confused

"It's going to voice mail again." TK sighs walking back up to them "Dad, please call us back. We're starting to get worried."

"Uh, TK." Marjan says at Carlos walks in

"Ah, babe, thank God you're here. Something's going on with my dad and we don't know where he is." TK walks to him

"Um we should talk in private." He looks over at y/n "you too"
