Chapter 1- Case Opened
5:45 pm, it was several hours since Flack had finished his shift and was heading back to his apartment.
Just 2 days had passed since Angel's death. He could not go through with this again, getting somewhere in his relationship and then it ending horribly.
He cannot forgive himself for what he did, he could have saved her. If only he had been there minutes later he may have had a small glimmer of hope.
Flack dragged himself out of his Chevrolet Blazer up to his apartment. He heard footsteps behind him, something wasn't right, someone wanted final revenge.
Flack pulled out his Glock out of his holster, a cold pain hit him right in the chest. It was over.

A buzzer sounded, it was Stella's alarm. Things had got stressful after Angels death and she found comfort by sleeping with the only colleague she could get close to… Adam.
"Morning sweet cheeks"
"Well Morning to you to gorgeous"
"I just have to say you were great last night and, umm I would like to do it again some time, you know, that's if you're up to it of course".
"Is now ok". Adam and Stella both chuckled and they went back under the covers to make passionate love.

Hawkes was just stepping out of the shower. He was still in pain from last night. He had really taken a beating, that guy had pounded on him hard.
He strolled back into his bedroom. There lay Lindsay. Both of them had gotten way too drunk last night and both of them got way ahead of themselves. It was a mistake.
"Please tell me we didn't"
"Uh… We did"
"As long as we don't tell anyone about this we should be fine, especially Danny, he will freak"
"Believe me, he is the last one I would tell, he's my husband for Christ's sake"
Hawkes dried himself off and went back to bed.
"Maybe I should leave now, before it gets a little to awkward"
"Fine, I suppose I'll see you at work tomorrow"
"But a kiss goodbye couldn't be too much ask for could it?"
Lindsay leaned over and gave him a kiss…. But it leaded to more. The kiss became more passionate. Lindsay managed to drag herself back from him. She grabbed her clothes and left.

10:00am 35th Floor-CSI Lab. Hawkes enters Macs Office. Mac is sitting there motionless. Hawkes leans over to see a case file.
"What we got now, another homicide, I'll take". Hawkes was interrupted by Mac sobbing.
"Mac are you ok". Tears were running down his eyes. Never had Hawkes seen Mac cry, he was always strong and brave about everything.
Hawkes walked over to Macs desk and picked up the file.
"It's Don, Hawkes"
Hawkes stormed out breaking the glass doors of Macs office.
Danny and Lindsay walked in and saw the emotion in Hawkes as he was running away in anger.
"What's up with him, jeez, someone had a bad start to the morning.
Stella walked in shortly after.
"Hey guys just seen Hawkes, he's in a pretty bad state".
"Do you really think he's still upset about Angel".
"Uh Dunno, he seemed fine this morning".
"Hey babe, how do you know that he was feeling fine.
Lindsay was looking guilty, too guilty. Stella knew about what had happened last night. Lindsay made up an excuse from the top of her head.
"Um, I called him this morning to see how he was and he said he couldn't feel any more better". Danny was about to speak when he got interrupted by Mac walking out of his office and standing there looking distraught.
"I have an announcement to make, this morning I got a call informing me of a homicide that had taken place last night down Skyline Boulevard. A body was found, it was too hard to identify the body at the scene as the victim had suffered serious blood force trauma to the head, and multiple stab wounds in the chest. When we got the victim back to the Morgue we ran a scan of the skull and built up an image of roughly what the person looked liked."
Mac had pulled out the photo so everyone could take a look.
"The victim, is Donald Flack Junior, an amazing and heroic officer killed on the way home after one of his rounds down at the precinct. We found him right outside his apartment with the key still in the door"
Danny walked up to Mac.
"So what your saying is that he's dead and there's nothing we can do about it. Come on Mac, you know as I well as I do, Flack is a great friend and he has been for many years. We could have saved him, one of us could have supported him, maybe stayed with him for the night. We all knew he was vulnerable, his girlfriend has just died".
"I'm sorry Danny but none of us could have prevented this, someone wanted Flacks life, and wanted him gone for good."
