Chapter 911: Chapter 96- Trinity – Evidence Sorting (VOLUME 5)

Trinity

~~

Everyone got to work. The files, of which there were over a hundred, were separated into groups. The first group went to Reggie who was using the computer equipment that Darrol had brought with him. At the current moment, she was scanning each page into a sophisticated database that was archiving everything and making it easier to search for details. She was also making a comprehensive list of fingerprints that we needed to check against the ones that we had collected from the scenes of the murders.

The files that Reggie wasn’t currently working on were being read and tabulated on our paper lists. This was more a list of names so that we could reference it before searching the database for them. Not that it would be helpful to do that, but it was one more record of things and that meant something when we had next to nothing.

While Reggie worked on that, Darrol was busy trying to hack his way into that laptop. He had a sophisticated looking setup that required multiple tables to be brought into the office for him to use. You know, little by little, this office of mine was starting to look like some sort of AV club or high school classroom. Just with people that were quite a bit older than high school aged. Some of them a few thousand years past that time. I think that the youngest person in here was probably Darrol, and I wasn’t even sure how old he was.

I watched on over Darrol’s shoulder as he hooked different wires to the German’s laptop. Powering it up, since it had long since had the battery died on it, he got to work. He was entering different codes and pressing different buttons on both the laptop that he was hacking into as well as his own. He had it opened to the main screen of the computer and files started popping up in no time at all.

…..

“It looks like they had very minimal security on this computer.” Darrol turned to look at me with surprise in his eyes. “I’ve never had to break into something that was this poorly protected.”

“Well, let’s be thankful for that. It’s at least one big break for us in this thing. Now, do me a favor and see what you can find in there. We need to know who this person was, what they did, where they went, and what they’re planning.”

“I’ll see what I can do.”

Darrol got to work on the files. Reggie was working on her archiving. And the others were busy with that list of names. Everyone had something to be working on at the moment except for me. I was just sitting there watching over them like I was some sort of idiot. Yeah, I know, I was the boss and bosses watched the others do their work for the most part, but dammit I felt useless at the moment.

“Trinity?” Reece walked over to me with an awkward set to his shoulders. “Since you are not busy right now, let me tell you what I learned today.”

“Alright Reece, what is it?” I was standing near the far wall, away from the group and I was speaking in a whisper so that I didn’t interrupt those that were actually working. “What is it that happened today that is so important? I mean, all you did was drive Reagan and Rika to school, there couldn’t be that much that happened.” At least I hoped that there hadn’t been too much that had happened.

“Well, Trinity, nothing truly happened. It’s more like I learned something. Rika told me some things that I did not take a liking to. And I think that you should know about it too.” What was this about? I didn’t know yet, but I knew that I was about to find out soon.

“Go on, tell me. I am going to find out eventually anyway, right.” I smiled at him. This was probably just some silly dad thing.

“First off, Alyssa appears to have found her mate.”

“Alyssa? Shawn and Dietrich’s Alyssa” I was surprised to hear that name, but that wasn’t such a bad thing, was it? “What is so bad about that?”

“Keep listening.” Reece spoke in a flat tone that was obviously meant to hide his anger. “Rika also said she isn’t sure but that she thinks this boy that she went on a date with was her mate.”

OK, that was not what I wanted to hear. She was too young. OK, OK, I know. That was hypocritical of me. Rika was two months older than Alyssa so if it was OK for Alyssa then it should be OK for Rika too, right? Wrong. I am not Alyssa’s mother and that freak out belonged to her fathers. For me, I was a little pissed off because this was a man that I had never met that was trying to take my baby girl away from me. That was not nice at all.

“O..O..OK.” I nodded as I tried not to lose my cool. “I..i..is that all?”

“No.” He shook his head. DAMMIT! Why couldn’t he just tell me that it was the last of it all.

“What else is there, Reece? Get it over with already, I think I am going to have a heart attack or something.” Please don’t let him tell me that my first little baby boy was being taken away from me as well. I couldn’t handle that.

“The names that Rika gave me this morning are Clovio, no last name for him. And Warrick Abitz.” He was looking at me with steady eyes, but I could see how hard he was working to remain calm at that moment. “And even though the last name for the one boy is different, I found both first names in those files from the orphanage.”

“Th..that doesn’t mean anything.” I tried to act like that fact didn’t bother me at all. “How popular are those names? There could be a lot of people with those names, and they might not be the same ones at all.”

“Maybe, but given what is happening, I think that it is pretty unique that these boys with clearly German names are suddenly here in Colorado.” I saw where Reece was coming from. I really did. But that didn’t mean that these things had anything at all to do with each other.

“They’ve been here since the first day that Reagan and Rika were on the campus tour. That was what I was told. She met this boy then. If it’s that group, then they would have been here since before we left.”

I felt a sudden cold start to fill me as I thought about what I had just said. If those boys were part of the Jaegan family, then they would have been here since before we even left for Wales. They would have infiltrated our family even back then. This can’t be. That just wasn’t the case at all.

“Reece, I think that we-.” I was saved from finishing that thought when Darrol called out to me. That was so good too, I didn’t want to know what it was that I was about to say since I hadn’t even figured it out yet.

“Queen Trinity?”

“Yes Darrol.” I looked at him with as calm of a smile as I could manage.

“There wasn’t much on this computer aside from games that they were playing, but I did find something. It’s an email that was sent to someone that was apparently outside of the home, but still in the family.” He was calling me over. “It says that they are taking the mission on the road. That the entire family needed to travel and that they needed to be prepared for the arrival.”

“Does it mention where they were going or what they were going to do?”

“No, I am sorry. It’s just that.” Darrol looked upset about something. Probably about not being able to find much else.

“Who was the email from? The one that owned the laptop, did you get any information about them?”

“His name was Aayden and he sent the message seven days ago to a man named Clovio. The account for Clovio is a lot more guarded so I am not able to get anything more from it at the moment. I will keep trying though.” I could see the determination in Darrol’s eyes as he made that declaration.

“Please do.” I nodded and I walked away. I was more stunned. There was that name again. The same one that Reece had just told me about.

“You see what I mean now, Trinity?” Reece asked me with a worried look in his eyes. “Clovio could very well be dangerous. And if he is hanging out with Rika, then she is in danger. And so is Alyssa.” We were whispering in the corner again.

“Yes, I know.” This was something that we needed to talk about. With Rika, Alyssa, Shawn, Dietrich, and us. We needed to get to the bottom of this. “We’re going to have to-.”

I was interrupted again. This time by my phone ringing. I would have ignored it completely, if it wasn’t the high school that was calling me.

“The school?” I felt a sense of dread filling me. “What do they need?”

“Just answer it.” Reece grumbled as he stared apprehensively at the phone.”

“Hello?” I picked up the call, nerves flooding through me.

“Hello, Queen Trinity, this is Miss Stephanie, the secretary at the high school.”

“Yes, I know who you are.” Of course I would know the main staff at the school that I held to found.

“Yes, of course.” She sounded nervous. “I was calling to let you know that there was an incident today with Talia. She has already called her guard, Alexio, and asked him to come and get her. However, I wanted you to be aware that something happened this morning.”

“What was it?” I looked at my watch. It was just now ten in the morning. She had only been at school for a little over a couple of hours now. What could have happened in that time?

“To be honest, Queen Trinity, I do not know.” I could hear the fear in the secretary’s voice. “She was just sitting in the classroom when she sort of went into a trance. And after a few moments she started to scream in terror. It took a few moments to calm her down. To be honest, she is still quite upset, but Alexio is on his way so I know that he will bring her right home. Please, do give her my best regards. I hope that she is feeling better soon.”

“Yeah, I will. Thanks.” I ended the call then, looking up into Reece’s panicked face.

“What could have happened to her?” He was just as worried about Talia as I was.

Dammit! This was not good. I needed to get to her right away, which meant that I needed to leave this work up to the others.
