Chapter 3:

When he walked into BPD Korsak joked "You going to war?"

Jack replied as he spotted Jane, "Nope; I'm here to protect Jane until we put this psycho piece of sht in the ground."

Frankie asked, "You mean behind bars don't you?"

Jack shot the younger detective a look as he said, "Nope."

Frankie nodded and said low voiced to Korsak as Jack walked over to where Jane and Maura were talking, "That guy scares me."

Korsak just smirked as Jane remarked, "Wow...er... I...mean what are you all decked out for?"

Jack chuckled as he said, "You asked for a bodyguard Detective Rizzoli. So here I am."

She chuckled as Maura asked, "Are you a qualified bodyguard Agent Cavanaugh?"

He was about to reply when Tyler said as he came walking down the hall, "Doc Jack is a former Delta team leader. He's one of the best bodyguards in the world."

Maura knew what Delta was and said, "Well good."

Tyler gave Jane a hug, then shook both Frankie's and Korsak's hand. Jack locked eyes with his younger brother as he asked, "You still wanna help?"

At Tyler's nod he continued, "Well go change into civvies you're helping me guard Jane."

Tyler nodded as he went to get changed. 15 minutes he reemerged. Jack asked, "You packing?"

Tyler nodded as showed Jack his FDE 9MM Beretta M9A3 in a black Galco CONCEALABLE BELT HOLSTER on his right hip. Jack grinned as he said, "Good. Now I-"

He was interrupted by the shrill ringing of his cell, He grabbed it and barked, "Cavanaugh."

Dana said, "Jack we got a fix on the Tiger's location. Steve and his TAC Team are already on scene and Billy is on the way with Charlie, Jenna and Officer Hatcher."

Jack felt his chest tighten with fear as he said, "I'm on my way with backup. Give me the location and inform all team leaders nobody is to make a move until I get there."

Dana gave him the location then said she would pass on his orders. He thanked her as he terminated the call. Then he turned around and addressed the squad, "Korsak I need you, Frankie and Nina to suit up."

Jane asked, "What about me?"

He replied, "You're staying here."

Jane exclaimed, "WHAT! You need me out there."

Jack argued back, "No I need you here where it's safe. I'm leaving Ty here to protect you."

This time it was Tyler who spoke up, "No way I'm staying behind when my two older sisters and my older brother are raiding a terrorist safehouse."

He heaved a heavy sigh as he said, "Fine you can go. You can fly us in then wait to take us to DCS."

Tyler nodded as the two profilers walked in. He walked up to Sullivan and said, "Bobby I need you and your partner to watch over Detective Jane Rizzoli until we get back."

The former Army Ranger turned profiler nodded as he said, "You got it brother."

Jack thanked him as he glanced at Maura and asked, "Would you mind coming along Doc?"

Maura replied as the others returned along with a kitted up Cavanaugh, "Yes I will go."

He thanked her then turned to Cavanaugh as he asked, "What are you doing Dad?"

Cavanaugh replied as he hefted his 5.56MM M4, "Like Ty said my children are not raiding a terrorist safe house without me there."

Jack just grinned as he said, "Saddle up."

They all nodded as they walked to the roof helipad and climbed aboard a black Bell UH-1Y Huey/Venom. Ty quickly ran through the preflight checklist and powered it up. Once the rotors were spinning Tyler lifted off, banked right and head for the staging area.

The Tiger glared at Mahmoud Rashid as he roared, "Your attack did nothing but anger the Crusaders."

Rashid replied in his rich, cultured voice, "Relax my friend. You know how massive the great Satan is and how long it will take to bring it to it's knees."

The Tiger rumbled, "I understand that but our source has informed me that the Crusaders know I am in the country."

Rashid tried to calm the mercurial Somali, "I understand. I will spirit you out of the country."

The Somali chewed on a piece of Khat as he asked, "Where would I go?"

When the Huey came overhead Jack yelled, "We're going to fast rope down."

Then to Maura he said as handed her a thick pair of gloves, "All you gotta do is slide down."

She nodded nervously as she donned the gloves then did as he instructed and slid to the ground. Then the others did as well. Once they were all on the ground Jack led his group to the others as he asked, "What do we know?"

Hatcher sneered, "Does the big bad commando have a plan?"

Jack shot him a scathing death glare as he repeated his question. Billy replied, "According to the latest SAT scan there is at least 15 tangos in there."

Jack asked, "Have we determined which ones are the Tiger and Rashid?"

Charlie replied, "Not yet."

Steve said, "I've got my team ready to breach."

Jack nodded as he asked, "What's the plan?

Steve replied, "I've got snipers positioned to where they can see inside the warehouse and I've got a MQ-9 Reaper drone circling overhead just in case they try to ghost."

Jack nodded as he said, "Me and Billy will lead Alpha team. Steve you and Charlie lead Bravo in through the back."

Then he turned to Maura as he said, "Doc; you wait out here with Hatcher."

Hatcher snarled, "I'm going in with my-"

Jack flattened him a right hook and growled, "I don't trust you nor do I trust you with my family. So if I were you I'd stay out here."

Hatcher laid on the ground rubbing his cracked jaw and glaring daggers at Jack.

5 minutes later Jack gave the order to breach and 15 minutes later both teams came dragging a bound and hooded Tiger and Rashid threw them into the black of a DCS HMMV. He ordered the drive a squat solidly built Latino in tactical gear and sporting a M4, "take those dirt bags to a deep dark hole."

The driver nodded as he gave Jack a toothy grin as he said in a quiet conspiratorial voice, "I know just the place."

Jack nodded as the guy hopped in the HMMV and roared away. Once he was gone Jacked called Ty to let him know the Op was a success. Then he spied Hatcher and growled, "Find your own way back."

Hatcher was about to tell him where to go when Ty landed the Huey in the vacant lot and they all jumped aboard leaving Hatcher still on the ground. After the chopper departed; Hatcher climbed to his feet and pulled out his cell and made a call. As soon as the phone was answered he said, "Start phase two."

And with that he terminated the connection and crushed the burner beneath his boot.

Sorry it took so long to update. Who was Hatcher talking to? What should there next case be a serial killer or a human trafficking case?
