"Hey Rina, how'a doin?" The voice said while sitting a Starbucks coffee in front of her.

Sabrina turned in her swivel chair and came face to face with officer Walsh and Grimes. Those two never separated. And if they were the other one wasn't to far behind.

"I'm-" The phone cut her off, "Hold that thought." She said to the officers then turned back around to answer the phone, "9-1-1, what's your emergency?...Ok, I'll send a couple of officers that way."

She ended the call then turned back to Walsh and Grimes.

"Apparently you two have nothing to do so I'll give you two this,." Sabrina gave Grimes the piece of paper, "There's a violent domestic disturbance and there's an 18 month old and a 2 month old in the home."

"Alright. We'll see you later Sabrina. Let's go Shane."

"I'm coming," He said over his shoulder, "Looks like I've got to go Rina."

"Looks that way."

"How 'bout when I get home we take Ana to your friend's house and go out?"

"Can't, sorry. Now go."

He started walking off and called over his shoulder in a singing way, "One of these days you're going to say yes."

If your wondering, Sabrina and Shane aren't dating, but they do live together with her 8 year old daughter. The reason why she and her daughter are living with him is because her apartment complex burned down to the ground three days ago. The couple that lived under Sabrina had a teenage boy and he decided to have a party in the middle of the day. They decided to start smoking things that are illegal and one of them dropped a joint without realizing and the apartment burned to the ground. All the teenage boys were now in a detention center for a few months. A couple of hours went by and it was about time for Sabrina to go pick Ana up from school. She answered one more call.

"9-1-1, what's-"

"We need an ambulance on Highway 18, East bound, an officer has been shot and is down."

"I'm sending one right now." She said as she sent over the information to the paramedics.

Shane got home around eight that night looking completely out of it. Sabrina put her daughter Ana to bed and went back down to the living room and saw Shane sitting on the couch chugging a beer.

"What's wrong?"

"Rick..." He said putting the empty beer bottle down and opening another, "He got shot and it's all my fault. I should've been paying more attention."

"Shane, it's not your fault. It doesn't matter how much you pay attention, your lives are still at risk every time you go out that door with a uniform on. Paying attention just helps out a little. How is he?"

"Nothing fatal, but he's in a coma," Shane said finishing his second beer and opening a third.

Sabrina took it from him and put it on the coffee table.

"C'mon, you need to go to bed." She said standing up pulling on his hand, "You've had a long day, you need rest and I'm not going to let you drink until you've passed out."

He got up slowly and they went to his room. Shane laid down but didn't let go of her hand.

"Shane, you got to let go so I can go to bed."

"Can you stay with me tonight?" He looked at her pleadingly.

Sabrina let out a sigh in defeat and laid next to him. He cuddled into her back and wrapped his arm around her waist pulling her closer, which caused her to stiffened up. Ten minutes went by and his body relaxed and his breathing was slow. She wiggled her way out of his arm and gently laid it down on the bed and left his room to go to hers and Ana's room to sleep.

It'd been three weeks and Rick was still in a coma. Sabrina was at work answering calls and sending out the appropriate emergency vehicle.

"9-1-1, what's your emergency?"

"Mommy?"

"What's wrong Ana?" Sabrina asked trying to stay calm.

"There's monsters coming into the school. There's people screaming."

"What do you mean by monsters baby?"

Sabrina's phone went off with a text and she read it quickly.

-Going to get Ana. We need to get out of town-S

"The monsters are eating people."

"Where are you right now?"

"In the girls bathroom."

"Honey, I need you to shut the door as quickly and as quietly as you can and lock the bolt. Is there anyone else in there with you?"

"Megan is."

"Ok. I need you two to stay away from the door and as quiet as possible ok? Shane's on his way to pick you and Megan up."

"Ok."

"Ok, I'll see you shortly."

She ended the call and could see the other dispatchers with confused/crazy faces as they listened to the people on the other line. She left without saying a word and headed to Shane's house.

-Ana's locked in the girls bathroom with her friend Megan, I'm heading to the house to pack as much as I can-

Sabrina put the phone down as she skidded to a stop in his driveway. She hurried inside and gathered as much clothes as she could. She was horrified at what she saw on the way to the house. These 'monsters' were rotting and eating human flesh and intestines. Sabrina went to Shane's room and packed his clothes. Hearing something downstairs she began to panic. Then she remembered Shane had a hand gun in his night stand drawer. She took it out and took the safety off, she'd never used a gun before but Shane showed her the basics. Going to the staircase slowly she saw a shadow. Sabrina was about to pull the trigger until Shane came around the corner of the staircase.

"Easy there Rina, it's just me." He said gently but rushed as he came up the steps.

"Thank God it's you. Is Ana and Megan ok?"

"Ana's just fine. Megan twisted her ankle but she's fine. Everything ready?"

"Yeah... Shane what the hell is going on?" She asked as he picked up all the bags.

"I have no idea. I went to the hospital and it was a massacre there. The swat team was shooting everybody, including these zombie like things," He explained as we made it to his Jeep.

Getting in the passengers seat, Sabrina was attacked by Ana and her friend Megan with huge hugs.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"I have no idea baby."

Shane got in and they took off to Rick's and Lori's home.

"Are we going to be ok?" Megan asked.

"Everything's going to be fine sweetheart," Shane said reassuringly but with the look on his face Sabrina wasn't convinced.

They pulled up to Lori's house and Shane got out to help Lori with her and her son Carl's bags. When they got in, it was a tight fit, but that didn't matter right now, what really mattered was getting out of town.
