Blue Bloods: May the odds be in your favor

Prologue

One Police Plaza

Manhattan, New York

"Why are we talking about this Garrett?" Frank remarked as they walked off the elevator on to the floor that his office was located on. He had his briefcase in his hand as they walked towards the office. "Morning Baker."

"Morning sir, how was the speech?" Baker replied as she held open the door to the office with a smile on her face. Frank and Garrett walked past her.

"It was fine until my DCPI decided to bring up the engagement of my youngest and his beautiful fiancé on New Year's and how it can be good for the department." Frank remarked as he set his suitcase down on the floor and handed Baker his coat.

"I saw that on TV sir, please pass along my congratulations." Baker replied with a huge smile on her face as she followed her boss into the office. Frank nodded that he would do the request of Baker.

"See Frank it's a story that everybody can love." Garrett replied with a smile on his face.

Frank turned around and looked at his DCPI with a look on his face. "Jamie getting engaged is not a story. How was he was supposed to know it be broadcast?"

"He didn't but every media outlet wants to interview you, Jamie and Janko on the family's reaction. Garrett stated with a smile on his face as he sat down. His smile slowly disappeared from his face as he saw Frank's face. "I'll tell them I'll let them know."

"Thank you. Baker what is on the schedule for today?" Frank looked over to his assistant.

"Well we thought you were coming back later on today sir so it's pretty light." Baker replied with a large smile on her face.

"Well the storm we are due certainly changed that." Frank replied as he looked at his schedule. Apparently the staff had scrambled to fill the holes because of his return and the winter storm prep. "When is the meeting with the mayor and emergency services to make sure all preparations are beginning?"

"Around four this afternoon." Baker stated as she looked at her notes on her notepad as she stayed in the office. Then she looked up as she remembered something. "Oh Officer Reagan, and Janko wanted a lunch appointment with them and Officer Janko's mother, but with the everything with the storm preparations and your schedule I told them I let…."

"It's okay Baker, I totally understand why lunch may be a problem." Frank stated as he looked at his schedule, remembering that his son and future daughter in law had day tours. He looked at Baker. "See if they are all free for dinner at Sullivan's."

"Yes sir." Baker replied a large smile on her face as she left the office.

Garret looked over at Frank. "Sullivan's?"

"Great prime rib and salad for Carla." Frank replied as he looked at his DCPI. "What else?"

"Media wants briefing on the storm preparations, but I can tell you what the majority of the questions will be about." Garrett replied with a sly smile on his face.

"Not my concern at the moment Garrett." Frank replied with his own sly smile.

12th Precinct

Manhattan, New York

"Sarge." Jamie stated as he walked into his old TO's office knocking on the door.

"Oh Reagan, yeah your paperwork. Come on in." Sgt. Renzulli stated motioning Jamie into the office and bringing paperwork out and handing it over to Jamie. "Sorry, the kid is sick and the wife is sick also so I had to get the kid to the doctor."

"No problem Sarge." Jamie stated as he looked over the paperwork. It basically a packet with new pay, and w-2 forms, signing for his new equipment, as well as test and his promotion certificate. Jamie finished signing the last paper and handed it back to Sgt. Renzulli. "Why didn't we do that on the computer?"

"I don't trust those things, besides, this way I can scan it and have hard copies just in case 1PP says they don't have the paperwork." Sgt Renzulli smirked as he set the paperwork next to the computer so he could scan them as soon as he was finished with Jamie. He brought up another piece of paper. "Now for your transfer, are you sure you still want to?"

"Yes sarge. I want to take what I learned here and bring it to other precincts and officers." Jamie stated with a smile on his face. He saw the look on his old TO's face. "Besides you, Eddie, and Vinny taught me lot."

Sgt. Renzulli smiled at his old boot. "Well it's good to see we had an influence on you besides your family, but as far as available slots. There are only two right now for new Sergeants. One is the 2-9 in Harlem and the other one is in Brooklyn is the 6-5 over in Bed-Stuy."

"Those are some tough precinct's Sarge." Jamie stated as he leaned back in his chair.

"Well the other option is you stay here until you get married and then transfer out and you may end up in Long Island." Sgt. Renzulli smirked at his old boot. He leaned back in his chair as well. "Sorry Jamie, I called around and nobody is giving up slots in other precincts, so think about it and talk it over with Janko before you make a decision."

"I will Sarge thanks." Jamie stated getting up and shaking Renzulli's hand before walking out of the office where he saw his partner and fiancé waiting for him. "Either Bed-Stuy or Harlem."

"That's all that is available?" Eddie asked as she played with her necklace that contained her engagement ring while she was on duty.

"For the time being. Look we'll talk it over before I make a decision, but for now let's get back out there. By the way where is Walsh?" Jamie asked Eddie with a sly smile.

"Oh filling out paperwork on a purse snatcher. She said it was ok because you had the meeting with Renzulli." Eddie stated with a smile. She gave his arm a squeeze as she started towards the area where her partner was. "See you later."

"Bye." Jamie stated as he and his partner began walking towards the front door of the precinct. He felt the look from his partner. "What Rodriguez?"

"Not that Eddie isn't a great cop, but what is the problem with staying here again?" Rodriguez asked as they walked out and headed towards their patrol car.

"We get married and one of us has to transfer. I rather have her stay here. I want to take what I learned to other places." Jamie reiterated to his boot. He saw the smile on her face. "Damn you Rodriguez."

"I just like pulling your tail Reagan. It's always so fun." Rodriguez said smiling as she climbed in.

Jamie just shook his head as he climbed in.

West 18th Street and 10 Avenue

Manhattan, New York

"So Danny how is everyone dealing with Jamie's engagement?" Baez asked as Danny parked the car about a couple hundred yards from their crime scene. Baez had been on vacation for New Years and only reported back to work yesterday. She had caught the proposal like many of people by seeing it on TV.

"We're happy for them. Eddie has made him really happy." Danny stated as they got out of the car and started walking towards the crime scene. Danny pulled the jacket tighter over him. "Surprised us and them when it was on TV. Jamie was kind of shocked about that, because he wasn't trying for the publicity."

"Well two uniform cops getting engaged on New Year's will definitely draw attention despite his effort to keep it low key." Baez stated as they arrived at the tape line as Baez ducked under the crime tape that Danny held it up for her before ducking under him. She smiled at her partner though. "But I am happy for them, so pass along my congratulations to them."

Danny nodded and smiled at his partner. "I will do that. Right now though Linda and Erin are on their case about a date but Jamie told them they want to check venues first."

"Makes sense." Baez replied as they arrived at the body. The coroner team was going over the body. "What do we have here?"

"Detectives meet Walter Davis. 35 financial advisor out of firm on Wall Street." The coroner assistant stated standing up and handing the wallet which was in an evidence bag to Danny. "Cause of death was single gunshot wound to the back of the head."

Danny nodded as he looked at the wallet and the ID which was covered in blood but he still made out the address. He passed the wallet to Baez. "He lives over in SoHo on Prince Street."

"Did you find anything on the body doc?" Baez asked as she made notes on in her notepad while holding the evidence bag.

"Just his ID badge for the firm he works at." The assistant told them as she stood up and motioned her team to bring over the gurney. "No visible defensive wounds, but I will know more when I get him back."

"Thanks Doc." Danny stated to the assistant who nodded as Danny knelt down by the body and looked it over. He pointed to the shoes that the victim was wearing. "Those are some high end business shoes Baez, must have cost this guy a fortune."

"The same can be said for the suit and the watch." Baez stated as she looked over the body as well. She looked at the evidence bag. "Cash and credit cards are still in the wallet, so robbery is the motive."

Danny nodded as he got a closer look at the wound on the victims head. He then check the knees on the victim's pants. "Dirt marks on the pants partner. Whoever shot him made him get on his knees."

Baez saw a crime scene tech bag a cartridge that was on the ground. "Can I see that?"

The tech nodded and brought over the evidence bag for her to inspect. Baez looked at her partner. "Looks like a 40 caliber, but markings aren't in English."

Danny looked at Baez, who handed the bag back, before turning his attention to the crime scene tech. "Get that cartridge back to the lab and have them process it right away."

The tech nodded as Baez lifted up the victim's ID badge to see where he worked. "He worked over at Sachs, Schmidt and Goldstein financial services."

"Alright let's check in with his buddies at the office to see what they have to say about our victim here." Danny remarked getting up as Baez nodded as she passed over the ID to a crime scene tech. Danny motioned over a uniform. "These buildings have surveillance cameras. Get the footage over to TARU and start a canvass on the area."

The uniform nodded as Danny looked at the victim as Baez studied her partner for a moment. "What you thinking about Reagan?"

Danny looked at the victim as he was slowly picked up by the coroner team. "Just thinking partner, despite it being a New Year, somethings never really change you know."

Baez looked at Danny as they watched the bag being zipped closed.
