This sequel is mostly about Briscoe and his grandkids. We know he is a grandfather since he has mentioned it in an episode but we do not know how many he has. In another episode, we find out that his daughter was 17 coming from Florida sometime in 1994.

I DO NOT OWN LAW & ORDER OR THE CHARACTERS. THEY BELONG TO DICK WOLF AND NBC.

Monday, August 1st—

Just before lunch, Lennie sat at his desk, elbows on the table with pen in hand writing out a report concerning a homicide he and his partner went to. Four detectives were at their desks; a few officers came in to put a suspect in a holding cell or and took another out for interrogation. Awhile later, he pulled out his old green typewriter to type up his report then put it on Ed's desk for him to review. Ed was away to get reports from the ME's office.

Minutes later, Van Buren opened the door from her office, and walked towards Lennie as she asked him, "Lennie, can I see you in the office real quick?"

Lennie got up. "Sure." He pushed the chair back and walked into her office.

As he closed the door, she turned to face him, he noticed Van Buren a little somber as she walked to her chair and looked at him.

"What's wrong?" he asked her.

"You will not like this Lennie, I hope you won't be too upset when I tell you this but-"

"No, they didn't take away my vacation did they?" he asked in an apprehensive tone.

"Not exactly," He looked at her confused and annoyed with a small scowl on his face.

"Jason is apparently having too much fun so he called in from Europe to say he will be gone another week.—"

He yelled with the palms of his hands covering the top of his head in agony, "NO!"

"Sorry Lennie, I have to take a week off of your vacation time. But when he comes back you can have that second week."

He looked at her with annoyance, "But by then my grandkids would be home. What am I supposed to do with my 12 and 14 year old grand kids, take them to crime scenes?" he asked sarcastically.

"I'll just have Ed partner up with someone else at night so you don't have to worry about leaving them, okay?" she said in a sympathetic tone.

Lennie opened the door as he shouted, "Great!" then slammed the door while he saw Ed at his desk hanging up the phone.

Noticing his partner looked angry, he took out a sandwich and chips, and placed it on Lennie's desk, "What's wrong?"

He violently pulled back his chair then sat down as he told him in a condescending tone, "That idiot Jason! He's having too much fun checking out Europe and won't be in for another week!" He unwrapped his sandwich and started to eat it while Ed took out his food.

In an amazed tone of voice with eyebrow raised Ed said, "Damn."

"Tell me about it." The ringing phone caused Lennie to start to pick it up; however, another detective picked it up.

"Well, don't worry. If there is a crime scene at night, I can get LaMotte to come with me. And even when you are hanging out with them before you are on vacation, I can get someone else to come with me."

"Thanks." Lennie said as he took a bite of his lunch while Ed read his report while also eating.

August 12th—

Lennie's apartment was ready for Leonard and Brittany, his 14 and 12-year-old grandkids who were to arrive later that day. He had the sheets from the beds and couch washed then he put them back on the beds in a slight rumpled mess. His grandson, Leonard, named after Lennie, was going into the 9th grade, and already took after his grandfather, with short brown hair, a tall and skinny build and plenty of smarts. Brittany his granddaughter, going into the 7th grade, brown shoulder length hair, and medium build. She was almost '5 "3 and like Leonard, very smart. After Julia got a divorce from her husband, she changed her and her kids' name back to Briscoe with her ex husband's approval.

10:15 am 27th Precinct—

Green and Briscoe were working on a homicide case while the office was busy with officers coming and going; detectives picked up phones at their desks and Van Buren was in her office reading reports. Ed checked out the flight status of the grandkids' plane that had the same schedule of arrival as an hour before.

They spent the morning interviewing witnesses, making reports of those interviews then they started to interrogate witnesses.

12:10 pm 27th interrogation room—

Lennie was in the interrogation room, Ed watched and listened in the hallway as his partner talked to the victim's relative.

"So, how was your relationship with your mom before she was killed?" he asked with his arms on the table folded. The relative had his arms on the table but not folded.

"It wasn't that great, I wanted to open a place of business but my mom felt I should have been an architect and my dad thought I should have been a lawyer. I still loved her though,"

"Where were you when she was killed?" Lennie asked.

"I was with a friend at a bar till 2am," Lennie located the pad of paper and pen on the table for the man to write on.

"Sorry, we have to do this," Lennie apologized.

"No, it's okay. I just hope you catch the jerk that did this."

"Do you know anyone who might have wanted to hurt your mom?" Lennie asked.

"Well, I'm only speculating but, I think I heard that my mom's grandkids—"

Lennie looked at his watch, slid his hands on the table as he propped himself up while he yelled out, "Aw, Damn Ed! I'm late picking my grandkids up!" Ed opened the door when Lennie walked out.

"Sorry Lennie!" He told him when Van Buren happened to walk in the hallway. Ed finished up talking to the man.

"Did I say something wrong?" The man asked with a perplexed look.

"No, you said nothing wrong. My partner was going to pick up his grandkids right about now but when you mentioned it, he remembered it's almost 1, when their plane lands."

"Oh, okay." He chuckled.

12:45pm—

Lennie parked the car at the airport, set the ticket number on the dashboard when his cell phone rang. He got it out of his jacket pocket to pick it up.

"Briscoe, speaking. Hey. You landed already. Where are you? Okay, I am just parking the car and I will meet you at the baggage claim area and sit on the chairs near the restrooms, okay? Bye." He said then hung up while getting out of the car and slipped his phone in his pocket.

Lennie noticed planes landing and taking off while he walked to the terminal baggage claim, also he watched for cars coming and going while he crossed. He walked in the baggage claim building, turned to see the shops and escalators; he turned the other way saw to see metal carousels that held flight numbers electronically and baggages going around. He saw travelers surround three carousels since their planes landed; he looked around and finally saw his two grandkids waiting. They saw their grandfather moments later, and they got up as he approached to give him a hug. He gave them the hugs they so loved getting from him.

After getting into the car, they talked about the plane ride then arrived at the precinct where they only stayed a few minutes while Van Buren, Ed and other detectives were out of the building. Lennie wrote out his report, and put it on Ed's desk for review then went home where Leonard and Brittany called their mom to let her know they were safe and talked for a few moments.

"Hey mom, guess where grandpa's gonna take us tomorrow?"

Just wanted to say thanks to my beta reader for checking my story and making sure it makes sense.
