Chapter1Welcomes & Revelations
Jack finally did it after two years of hard work at New York Tech he had his criminal justice degree and now he was moments away from graduating the police academy.
Jack still remembered the day he told Danny he was going to take the police academy Danny was overjoyed that his son was following in his footsteps but part of Danny knew in addition to following in his footsteps Danny knew that Jack was doing this to honor his mother who died Jack's senior year of high school from a freak car accident coming from a medical seminar an event that gutted both Danny and the boys hard.
Jack stood in front of the entrance 1pp and took a breath before entering the event center where he'd finally realized his dream of becoming a member of the NYPD.
As Jack was about to enter the room he heard someone call out to him.
"Hey Reagan wait up."
Jack looked up to noticed his friend and academy mate Christine "Chris" D'Angelo-Curatola running towards him.
Chris was a 5'8" brunette who was a spitting image of her mother Jackie down to the brown eyes and hair.
"Hey Chris you scared the crap out of me."
"Well I'm sorry but I've been tailing you since you walked in scared as hell."
"How many times have I told you not to do that?"
"Counting this instance 125 times." Chris said holding back a laugh.
"And yet you still do it anyway."
"That's just me you know I do it because I love you Jack."
"I know you do Chris and I like you too."
"Jack you're not hearing me I'm in love with you."
"Chris are you being serious right now?"
"Yes Jack I am and if you need me to draw you a diagram here it is I'm in love with you and have been since the first day I saw you in the academy and before you ask I don't care about what your family or mine says I want you to at least give us a shot."
Jack looked in his friend's eyes and took a breath.
"Dam it Chris you're putting the screws to me."
"I know I am but I'm doing this because I'm madly in love with you and wouldn't be risking my heart for anyone."
"You know what Chris as much as my head is telling me this is a bad idea there is a small part of me wonders what dating you could lead to."
"Jack Reagan don't play with my emotions."
"I'm serious Chris if you want this let's do it we'll keep it professional on the job."
"That implies that we get the same house and get paired up."
"I have a good feeling we get the same house as for partners I don't know."
"Fine we'll do this your way but we tell my mom at least the less of a shit show we put up with."
Deal but if we become partners we go straight to the P.C. himself I'd rather not made us the latest example for academy love roulette."
"Done deal so after the ceremony meet me outside and we tell my mom."
"Copy now let's get inside."
The two soon to be rookies walked into the hall in their dress blues walking passed both the Reagans and Jackie waving to them as they took their seats in front row just as the ceremony was about to begin.
As people settled in Frank came out flanked by Syd Abigail and Garret he took a seat in the center of the stage waiting for the last minute press and guests to be situated before the ceremony began.
Once the room was settled Garret stepped to the podium to begin the ceremony.
"Welcome media family friends' fellow officers and graduates today we celebrate special group individuals who have answered the call to service and join the worlds' most elite police force now to begin the festivities I turn it over to commissioner Frank Reagan."
After momentary applause Frank stepped to the podium.
"Thank you for that intro Garett, ladies and gentlemen today we are here to officially welcome 600 of the finest men and women of our fair city into the finest police force in the world but before we get to that I would like to say to our incoming police officers the job you are about to undertake is a thankless but necessary job but know that I along with the citizens of this city thank you for your dedication and service".
After a short applause Frank gathered the crowd and continued with the program.
"Before we proceed to the physical graduation I would like to acknowledge the recipients of this terms academy awards.
The first award is the endurance award given to officer that completed their endurance test the fastest so without further ado the winner of the endurance award is candidate Christine D'Angelo."
Christine stepped up to the stage saluted the commissioner and accepted the framed certificate and stepped off the stage.
Once Christine was seated Frank again took to the podium.
This next award has always been a favorite of our candidates the sharpshooter award is presented to the candidate that demonstrates exceptional command of a firearm during training and it gives me great pleasure to announce that for the first time in a decade we have co recipients of said award so without further ado I present the co-recipients of the sharpshooter award Christine D'Angelo and Jack Reagan
Both Jack and Christine knew they were locks for the award a few days prior to graduation but still felt a sense of pride.
Once they accepted their awards they headed back to their seats knowing that the next time they walked across the stage it'd be to accept their silver shields and be welcomed into the most elite police force in the world.
After having heard a speech from Sid it was finally time for the current batch of recruits to walk across the stage and officially be welcomed into the brotherhood that was the NYPD.
"Ladies and gentlemen we've come to the part in the ceremony where we officially welcome these candidates into the NYPD".
With that Frank began calling the names of the now rookie officers they each walked across the stage accepting their shields saluting the commissioner and shaking his hand as they did so.
When Chris accepted her shield she glanced at her mom giving her a beaming smile.
When Jack accepted his shield as the officers did he shook the commissioners hand walked across the stage and just as he was about to step off stage he looked up to the sky and raised his shield up as if to acknowledge his mother.
Once back at his seat Jack watched as the remaining candidates accept their shields and as the ceremony was ceremony was winding down Jack took one most look at his shield tracing the numbers on his shield he had been given the number 2709 and as he traced the last digit he looked over to see Chris tracing the numbers on her shield.
Jack did a double take when he saw Chris' number it seemed like fate she'd been assigned the number 2710 he quickly shook the situation from his mind and caught the end of Frank's closing remarks.
…" With that I would like to welcome the newest members of the NYPD."
Once those final words were heard the entire class of newly minted officers tossed their hats celebration.
"Well we finally did it Jack we're NYPD officers."
"I know hopefully we do the shields proud."
"We will Jack no worries by the way I know I wasn't the only one to notice our shield numbers."
"You noticed that too huh?"
Kind of hard to miss Jack if that doesn't tell you we're meant to be together nothing will."
"After what happened outside and the shield thing I have no doubts about us."
"Aw Jack you have no idea how happy you've made me by saying that."
"I think I do now let's get outside my family and your mom are probably waiting for us."
"Let's go hopefully we find out what house we got."
With that Jack and Chris headed outside where they met up with the rest of the Reagan family and Jackie.
Jackie was the first to see the newly minted cops.
"Christina." Jackie called getting both Chris and Jack's attention.
The two cops ran over and met their welcoming committee.
"Congrats guys."
"Thanks mom."
"Yeah thanks Ms. Curatola."
"Jack we're co-workers now you can call me Jackie."
"Thanks Jackie."
"No problem."
Just then Danny turned to see Jack in his uniform.
"Jack I'm proud of you son."
"Thanks Dad."
"You're one of us kid your mom would've been proud".
"I miss her Dad."
"I do too Jack let's head to grandpas theirs a fest with your name on it."
"Dad I know you want to go eat but I need to talk to Jackie really quick."
"Sure hurry up."
Jack ran over to Chris' car where Jackie and Chris were waiting by Chris' black Ferrari
"Jackie Chris wait up." Jack called as he sprinted towards the waiting duo.
"What is it Jack?"
"Well it's about Chris and I."
Upon hearing this Jackie's attention was on Jack.
"Jack what are you telling me?"
"Jackie, Chris and I are dating and its brand new we want to keep it private for now but thought you should know."
"Aw I knew this would happen."
"Jackie what are you talking about?" Jack asked puzzled.
"Well Jack Chris no doubt won't speak to me after this but I have to."
"Come mom not now."
"Chris he should know."
"Fine tell him."
"Jack my Chris has had a crush on you since before you guys started at the academy and I only found out because I overheard her on the phone a few months back I confronted her and told her it would be hard but if she was serious go for it but to be careful".
"Thanks Jackie."
"No problem Jack if my daughter was going to date a cop it might as well be a Reagan."
"Gee thanks Jackie."
"Calm down Jack I'm only kidding and before you ask I will keep this between us for now."
"Thanks Jackie."
"Again no problem now get to your grandfathers we'll meet you there."
"With his relationship at least temporarily taken care of Jack walked over to the parking lot and jumped in his car he hated that he still drove his 2010 grey Chevy which was on its last legs but on his new salary he knew he had to make do with it for now.
One thing was for sure Jack knew he was in for an adventure.
Once Jack managed to make his way into his grandfather's house where he was greeted by his family.
"Jack good you made it." Nicky called from just beyond the door.
"Yeah Nicky of course I made it traffic was murder."
"Whatever come to the living-room Grampa's been waiting for you."
Once Jack was in the living-room Frank took the floor.
"Today we welcomed Jack and Christina to the force with that being said I hold in my hand the assignments of two of the fraternity's newest members.
"Jack reveal your assignment first."
Jack took the envelope from his Grandfather opening with ease reading it over in his head than cracking a smile.
"Well son what's it say?" Danny asked.
"Jack Reagan we proudly inform you that you have been assigned to Manhattan's twelfth precinct."
"Wow look at that looks like there will be a trio of Reagan's in the twelfth." Danny chimed in.
"Now Jack just because I'm your uncle don't expect any special treatment."
"Of course uncle Jamie I'd expect nothing less."
With Jack having received his assignment it was now Chris' turn to find out her assignment.
Chris like Jack took her envelope from Frank and she then opened and read it and she too cracked the same smile.
"Well Chris where are you calling home?" Jackie asked curious where her daughter was going to call home.
"Well my home will be the…Twelfth."
Having revealed the news Chris and Jack shared a look of approval at their assignments hoping they would be partners.
After the formalities were taken care of the group sat down to a king's feast.
No one at the table knew it at the time but for the Reagan's Curatola's life was about to get very interesting…
That does it for the first chapter of this story, as I mentioned in the first authors note this story will alternate updates with Reagan Family Reconstruction. As we get deeper into the story we'll explore how Jamie Eddie Nicky and Danny play into the story.
