Song of the Day: We're Not Going To Take It, by Twisted Sister
//////
Looking around to make sure that nobody else was around, Zay got out of the back of the van. Josh was inside getting dinner for them to take on the road. Making sure Josh was nowhere in sight, Zay slowly walked over to the pay phone, his hands in his pockets.
Once at the pay phone, Zay took as many quarters as he had and chucked them into the machine, and picked up the phone. His fingers traced the numbers on the keypad before dialling.
Lucas had betrayed him. He had done nothing wrong, and the man he had thought of as his best friend, along with the girl that was with him, had beaten him, and wouldn't even tell him where his daughter was. Well, everything was about to change. He was going to find his daughter and file for custody. He was going to make Lucas pay for what he had done.
Zay pressed down on the numbers. 844-956-2020-12.
"This is Patricia Monagham, secretary to Director Abrams, who is this?" The lady--Patricia--asked.
"Yes Patricia, this is Agent Babineaux, Special Units, I'm in Agent Friar's team. There was a break in the case and I need to speak to the director about it immediately." Zay whispered.
"Right away Agent Babineaux." Patricia said, and through the telephone line, Zay could hear the girl press a few buttons. "Director Abrams, there's an Agent Babineaux on the phone for you, line 3."
"Agent Babineaux. How is the case going, my secretary said that you needed to talk to me immediately." The director said once the lines changed over. Zay looked around. Still no sign of Josh. "Agent Babineaux, please tell me that you haven't fallen asleep on the phone again."
"No director, I was just making sure that the perimeter was clear. I have acquired some intel that I believe you should hear about. It is kind of disturbing."
"Well, get on with it, I haven't all day, I am a very busy man."
"I have reason to believe that Lucas Friar has gotten to close to the case. Through the comms units as well as the cameras we have set up, we have seen Lucas get close to two of the targets, Riley Matthews and Maya Hart. He seems to have become friends with Hart. And I am afraid that she knows his true identity." Zay said, and he could hear the director sigh through the phone.
"And his relationship with Matthews?" The director asked.
"Director Abrams, whereas Matthews may not know about Friar's true identity, it appears as Friar has gotten to close to the subject. They have kissed, visited her daughter in Canada and had a fun day with her, and we believe from the noise that came through the earwigs. I believe that Friar and Matthews had sex." Zay finished, and the director sighed again.
"I was afraid of this. Friar is too young and immature. He'll have to be removed from the case immediately. And as for the targets, they will have to be eliminated." Abrams said.
"I will need a signed signature of approval Director." Zay said.
"Where are they headed next?" Abrams asked.
"Our Intel and from what we have gotten from Friar, they are going to New York."
"NYPD will have it ready for you to pick it up there. Arrest Friar under his fake name and bring him back to headquarters. I will personally reprimand him and decide his punishment from there."
"What about Maya Hart. The CIA has made us send over information for their operative on the case. Will Hart have to be eliminated or caught as well?"
"Hart's going to have to serve some jail time. But besides that, she will not have to taken out. However, if she fights back, and refuses arrest eventually, if she even fires a single shot back at you...feel free to do what you believe is necessary." Abrams said, hanging up.
Zay put the phone back down on the payphone. He walked back to the van, where Josh was waiting for him. "Sorry I wasn't here to let you in. I just got off the phone with the director. New orders."
"What do we have to do?" Josh said, opening the back doors up, and climbed in, taking the food back from Zay. Zay was quiet, so Josh looked him in the eye.
"We have to remove Luke from the case. Matthews and her team must be taken care of. Hart might have to serve jail time, but that's it unless she resists arrest or fires back at us. Then we have orders to protect the citizens and ourselves." Zay said, looking at Josh.
Josh's eyes went wide. "What!? Maya didn't do anything, she's a CIA agent. We can't just kill her." Josh said, and he looked at Zay carefully. "Are you sure Abrams said this?"
"I'm afraid so. They terminated Maya as a CIA agent, but you already knew that from your informational meeting last night." Zay said. "I'm sorry Man. But when we get to the city, we have to pick up the written orders from Abrams. Then we have to arrest Lucas under his fake name."
"We have to warn Lucas. They can't go to New York." Josh said, picking up his cell phone, but Zay grabbed it and took it away from him.
"We're not allowed to warn them." Zay said, shutting Josh's phone and pressing it back into his hands. "I'm sorry bro, but Abrams isn't letting go of this one."
"What do we do then? When we arrest Lucas, he is going to go bezerk." Josh said.
"I know. I kind of want NYPD to arrest him, but I know that we have to be the ones to do it. We've been the only people who have ever been able to put him under control."
"He's going to kill us."
"Yep, we're dead."
"Well, what do we do in the meantime while we're waiting to die?"
"Yahtzee?"
"Did you just say Yahtzee?"
"Yeah, do you have a problem with Yahtzee?"
"No, I was just saying why Yahtzee."
"I like Yahtzee."
"Ugh. Let's just drive." Josh said, buckling himself into the front seat and Zay buckled into the passenger seat. They drove onward to New York.
