Chapter 1
Flames of Sisterly Hatred
Kerrigan Taylor, Kerri to her friends and family except her mother stood out side the 55th station house. She sighed, she knew her sister was at this precinct and she knew what had happened between them when Kerri, went though the fire academy and graduated 2 days before her 18th birthday.
Ten years Earlier
Kerri was standing in her bedroom she had just tucked in her Uniform shirt. Alex came storming in. "What the hell do you think your doing?"
"Getting ready for my graduation ceremony, in case you forgot." She replied
"You can't go through with this, what will mom do if you don't know the first thing about the streets and what happens to mom if something happens to you? Huh tell me."
"Mom will still have you, Adam and Dad. I doing this Alex you can't stop me. I want to do this not just to follow in the family footsteps I want this more than you know. And I know more about the streets than you think."
"I'm not going to be part of this, you're too young." She said, "After you graduate don't think about working the same station I am."
"Don't worry Dad's already got me working with him, he wants to make sure I can do this." She said turning, "You can come or you can stay I don't care But I'm going through with this Alex" She pulled on her jacket and walked out.
Present
Keri relived that scene everyday for the past ten years now the Chief ordered her to the 55th, no questions about it permanent transfer. She looked at the papers in her hand. PERMANT TRANSFER, replacement for Joe Lombardo who left. She picked up her gears bag and placed in the bay as she walked in, the station. She stopped at the top of the stairs, she took a deep breath, "Here goes nothing," she said before opening the door.
She heard laughter coming from the kitchen she pulled off her ball cap and let her short brown hair fall on her shoulders, after the fight she dyed her hair brown with lighter brown highlights, so no one could mistake her for Alex. She put her hat in her pocket and walked to the kitchen papers in hand, "Excuse me, I'm looking for Lieutenant Johnson, "she said.
Heads turned and anger flashed on Alex's face, "What are you doing here?"
Kerri took a deep breath and looked at Alex square in the eyes, "I was transferred, to replace Lombardo," she said, "Don't bother trying to get me transferred out it useless, I tried Alexandra."
Alex stood up and glared at Kerrigan, "Kerrigan, you may have been transferred here, but I assure you that you will not be my partner."
Billy stood up and cleared his throat, "Do you two know each other?"
"We're sisters," they snapped at the same time. Billy sat back down and cringed this was going to be fun.
"What in the Devil is going on out here?" Lieutenant Johnson said as he walked out to the kitchen stopping dead in his tracks he looked at Alex then Kerri, "Are you the new transfer," he asked.
Kerri looked away from Alex, "Yes Sir I am Kerrigan Taylor." She said, handing him her papers.
"Is there a problem between you two," he asked as he looked over her papers.
"No sir, no problems between us," Kerri said.
"Speak for yourself, Kerrigan," Alex said, "Sir, You can't let her say here, it won't work. Joe was my partner and He left she'd be my partner and we'd kill each other."
"Fine, she stays, DK you get Alex as your new partner Jimmy you get Kerrigan, Billy you still get to pump the truck." He said, "Problem solved and I suggest you two get over your issues with each other because I won't tolerate it. Jimmy will show you to the lockers and your bunk." Johnson said walking away.
She nodded, so did Alex. Jimmy walked over to her, "Hi, I'm Jimmy Doherty." He said extending his hand to her, he flashed her his signature dimpled smile.
"Kerrigan Taylor, call me Kerri" she said taking his hand and shaking it and smiling weakly
"Follow me." He said, heading up stairs. She followed, on his heals. "That's your bunk and locker," he said pointing to one.
She placed her bag on the bunk and sighed, "Thanks," she said.
"I'll be down stairs if you want the grand tour," he said.
"Thanks I'll be down in a minute." She said she put her head in her hands and sighed, this was going to be hell for her and Alex. She looked up as Alex walked in and slammed the door. Kerri sighed this would be fun.
