A/N: Damn plot bunny. Only this one hatched in the unlikeliest of places. Sometimes I think I take RPing way too seriously...
Yeah, so SPOILERS for "A NEW LIFE" yada-yada. Greg writes a short letter to Donna Sabine in the aftermath of the wreck of a wedding day she had.
A New Life... Interrupted
Dear Donna,
When you're on the job this long, you inevitably make mortal enemies. It's an occupational hazard. But that enemy is usually a threat from without, not from within. We consider as family those people we work with so closely, don't we? We're not ever just co-workers or colleagues when we trust each other with our lives and our secrets.
I'm deeply sorry you had to suffer such a devastating betrayal from someone you thought of as a member of the family, Donna, especially on what was supposed to be a most joyous occasion for you and Hank.
Thank you for letting us be there for you; to bring you back from that edge. You could have crossed the line and fallen, but you didn't. My faith in you never wavered.
Bill is going to face justice for what he's done, but your hands are clean. Don't ever blame yourself for his downfall. He made his choices. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped, and he pushed you and everyone else away. You know this.
Ida Logan and her henchmen are in custody, and we're going to make sure they stay that way.
We're all very thankful that Hank is going to pull through. Be with him. Enjoy your honeymoon. And after four weeks of mind-numbing boredom (well, okay, I'm sure some things won't be boring), maybe we can convince you not to retire just yet. I recruited you to the SRU, and it would be a damn shame to lose you so soon.
Just think about it, okay?
Your new life doesn't have to exclude this family.
Sincerely,
Sgt. Greg Parker,
SRU Team One
