It's been a few hours since Janie's funeral. Everyone had passed the psychiatric evaluation. The case had been solved successfully and they were all sitting at their desks doing paperwork. Suddenly Antonio's work phone rang.
"Cortez, yes, when, ok, bye."
"What was that all about Antonio?" Nicole asked him worriedly.
"Umm.. nothing, don't worry about it, Nick. I uh, I gotta go. I'll see yall tomorrow." Antonio said as he hurriedly left his desk and went to the elevator. Nicole and Jess just looked at each other. They never said bye to Antonio.
The Next Day
"Where is Antonio? He should've been here 10 minutes ago." Nicole said slightly panicking.
"Nicole." Jess said to Nicole but Nicole just kept rambling on. So Jess finally yelled at her. "NICOLE!"
"What Jess?" Nicole asked slightly upset.
"He just got off the elevator." Jess told Nicole. But before Nicole could get to Antonio, Antonio got to where Nicole and Jess were standing. He had a giant empty box in his hand.
"Antonio, what's going on?" Nicole asked Antonio, tears coming to her eyes.
"I just got accepted for the job at airline security. I start tomorrow." Antonio looked at Jess and Nicole. "I'm sorry you guys, but Nick, one of us had to. I chose to."
"But Antonio you, you can't." Nicole said almost all the way crying.
"It's ok Nicole. I have to start packing my stuff now." Antonio said. He then walked off and went to his desk to start packing his things. Nicole was fully crying now. Jess tried to calm her down but all of her efforts failed. About 30 minutes later Antonio had all of his things packed and he was ready to leave.
"I can't believe your actually going Antonio." Jess said to him. Pollock was also there to wish Antonio good luck and tell him goodbye.
"Me neither, but I can always come back." Antonio said. "I have to go now. I have an appointment with my new boss. I'm sorry everyone." So he walked out after saying his goodbyes. Pollock then left Nicole and Jess alone to talk for a few minutes.
"Jess, what have I done?" Nicole asked Jess, very upset.
"Nicole you haven't done anything. It was his choice. Just think now you can have a better relationship and you have nothing to worry about." Jess said to Nicole to calm her down.
"Yeah, I guess so Jess." Nicole said very upset at what had just happened. She then sat down at her desk and stared at Antonio's empty desk wonder, just wondering what to do next.
"Agents," Pollock said to Nicole and Jess. "We have a missing girl."
"Sir, we don't even have a forensics expert to help out." Jess said to Pollock wondering how they would do the case.
"We'll have a new forensics expert tomorrow." Pollock said. "First thing in the morning. Right now we need to focus on the missing girl."
Nicole sighed, "Alright sir, what do we have?" They all started walking towards the bullpen.
"Shelley Williams, 8 years old, disappeared from her home between 9pm and 6am, Go interview the mom, interrogation 1." Pollock said to Nicole and Jess.
"Ok, sir." Nicole said. So Jess and Nicole went to interrogation 1 and started to talk to the mom.
"Hi, Mrs. Williams, I'm Nicole Scott, this is Jess Mastriani." Nicole said as her and Jess sat down at the table.
"Hi." Mrs. Williams said, upset, "My ex-husband did this, I know."
"Why do you say that Mrs. Williams?" Jess asked her.
"Well, see we divorced 3 years age, and we had a custody dispute and, well, I won. So I got full custody of Shelley. He actually has a restraining order for me and Shelley b/c he kept trying to get Shelley."
"What do you mean by that?" Nicole asked her softly.
"He kept trying to kidnap her so he could have full custody. He was always jealous that I had full custody." Mrs. Williams said, very upset.
"What's your husband's name?" Nicole asked her.
"Darren Williams." Mrs. Williams told Nicole.
"Ok, don't worry, we're going to find your daughter." Jess said. Nicole and Jess then left.
Once they got to the bullpen, they saw Pollock standing beside another guy.
"Sir, who is this?" Nicole asked curiously.
"This agents, this is special agent Brian Rico, he is here to take Cortez's place." Pollock said smiling.
"Sir, I thought you said that he wouldn't be here until tomorrow morning." Jess said looking at Pollock.
"He heard about-" Pollock started to say when Brian cut him off.
"I heard about the case, so I figured that I could help out earlier tonight instead of in the morning." Brian said.
Pollock looked at him, annoyed, "I don't like to be interrupted." Pollock said angrily.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a little excited to work for the Washington field office." Brian said.
"Right," Pollock said. Nicole and Jess looked at each other questioningly.
"So where did you work before here?" Nicole asked.
"The Indiana field office in Indianapolis." Brian said.
"Wait a minute, when were you there?" Jess asked slightly confused.
"Uhh.. about a year and a half ago. Right after somebody got transferred to San Francisco." Brian said.
"That was Brooke Haslett that left." Jess said.
"Right anyway they transferred me here after agent Cortez left. If you don't mind me asking, Jess, is it?" Brian looked at Jess.
"Yes, that's right." Jess said, kind of shy like.
"You look very familiar. Do we know each other?" Brian asked Jess.
"No, I'm pretty sure we don't." Jess said nervously.
"Well, anyway agents, we have a job to do, that is if you want to get home within the next 2 or 3 hours." Pollock said to all of them. "Agent Rico, you are on forensics. Scott, Mastriani, you know what to do."
"Yes, sir." Nicole said as her and Jess left to start looking up Darren Williams background. Brian on the other hand left to go investigate the scene.
