Gill/Kevin

It had started off as a normal Monday morning in M.I.T. Janet and Rachel were heading to the interview room to interview a rough looking doorman on charges of assault. Lee and Pete were catching up on some long overdue paperwork. Andy and Mitch were heading out to arrest a known prostitute for theft, leaving Kevin with nothing to do accept correct some spelling mistakes to his latest report. DCI Gill Murray was in her office when the call came through that there had been a shooting at the bank in the city centre. There were police already present but they required a Seniour Police Officer to attend the scene and as Gill was the closest it fell to her. She grabbed her bag and keys from the desk and made her way out of her office.

"Kevin, come on, you're with me." She bellowed.

"Where are we off to Boss."

"There's been a shooting at the nearby Bank."

"Casualties?"

"Well 1 that we know off so far, they weren't able to give me much over the phone. They need a Senior Officer there which is why I'm heading down."

"And you want me as your back up."

"If there was anyone else available Kevin, I'd take them. Sorry but you're stuck with me, Come on."

Kevin yanked his jacket off the back of his seat and followed Gill downstairs and into the car. He didn't want to admit it to her, but the truth was that he was quite happy to be accompanying her. As much as he knew he wound her up, he actually liked her, in more ways than one. He liked being bossed around by her, he got a thrill from it. He could never understand why her Ex had cheated on her. She had to be one of the most vibrant women he'd ever met.

Gill glanced over at Kevin as they drove and could see Kevin's mind had wandered.

"Oi, where did you go." Gill asked, smirking.

"Sorry Boss."

"You zoned out on me. What's up?"

"Nothing Boss, just thinking."

"God help us."

The rest of the drive was spent in silence. When they got to the Bank, the place was surrounded by police cars and 2 ambulances. They got out of the car and Gill walked towards 2 unifomed officers.

"Hi there. I'm DCI Murray and this is DC Lumb. You are?"

"I'm PC Smart and this is PC Andrews Ma'am."

"So what have we got?"

"These two guys just walked in and started demanding cash and waving guns about. The security guard tried to stop one of them but he wasn't quick enough and the taller assailant shot him."

"Dead." Gill inquired.

"Yes Ma'am." PC Andrews replied.

"The other gunman, a little shorter, he got the cashier to fill up his bag with money and then he shot her. Luckily for her, he was a crap shot and she got of with a flesh wound. The ambulance is taking her to Royal Oldham Hospital and the other ambulance is taking the deceased security guard to the morgue." PC Smart said.

"Did the gunmen get away?" Kevin asked.

"We think so. The smaller guy definitely did. He was spotted running down that alley over there." PC Smart pointed.

"You mean the taller one is unaccounted for." Gill stated.

"Yes Ma'am. We did a sweep of the Bank and so far he hasn't been found."

"Right, well. I want witness statements from everyone involved. Nobody leaves until they're completed, understand. Kevin, you and I are going in, double check the other gunman isn't still in there."

"Do you think that's wise Boss. He's armed, what if he is still there. We shouldn't go in wthout backup."

"Kevin, he's highly unlikely to be there anyway. What sort of idiot would stick around after the event. Come on."

Gill stormed in ahead of Kevin and he sighed heavily before following her inside. The floor of the bank was littered with papers and some runaway bank notes. The smell of gun smoke still lingered in the air. Gill walked through to the back of the bank to where the safe was stored and staff offices. The passage was dimly lit and Kevin got a horrible feeling about the whole thing. He went into the room on his left to have a look around and Gill went into the one on the right. The lighting was really bad and made it hard to recognise anything or anyone. Kevin checked all corners and places a person could hide and came up clean.

"Boss, this room's clear." Kevin yelled.

There was no reponse from Gill and Kevin began to get nervous. He walked into the room Gill had gone into.

"Boss did you hear what I…."

When Kevin walked in he was confronted with the missing gunman. He had a tight grip on Gill and the gun pointed at her head. Kevin's stomach dropped the moment he saw the gun and where it was pointed. His first instinct was push Gill out of the way but the grip the gunman had on her made it impossible.

"Call for help and she's dead, you got it pig."

"Just let her go, yeah. You don't want to hurt anyone." Kevin said, nervously.

"Bit late for that, don't you think. If the stupid idiot had just stayed where he was, he'd still be alive."

"Pointing that thing at a Senior Police Officer isn't a wise idea either. Put the gun down."

"No way pal, I'm not dumb. The minute I put this down, you arrest me. I'm not new at this, you know."

Kevin looked at Gill and saw the genuine fear in her eyes. He couldn't remember her looking like that before. She was usually the strong one and now it was down to him.

"Waving that gun around isn't the answer and you know it."

"I'm not leaving here with you lot. I'm going out there on my own terms. My own terms, YOU GOT IT PIG."

The gunman threw pushed Gill into Kevin, causing her to put her hands out firmly on his chest to stop herself falling over. They caught their breath and locked eyes for momentary seconds before Gill jumped back into DCI mode and started running after the gunman.

"Boss, what the hell are you doing."

"What does it look like. We need him in custody. COME ON."

Kevin ran behind Gill and thhe gunman running on infront. He made it out the front door of the bank and let of a gunshot so that he had a clear path to escape. He ran down the alley his friend had used and Gill was hot on his heels. Kevin was near enough behind her when he hear her yell STOP and then he heard the gunshot and that's when he saw Gill fall infront of him.
