Genre: Depends on which drabble

Pairing/Ship: depends on which drabble!

Spoilers: I'll list any spoilers with each drabble if need be.

Disclaimer: Duh, not mine- well the characters and show at least. But I do take credit for this fic- it did come from my head- and was written by my hand...he he he

Author's Notes: Here's a collection on my Third Watch drabbles (in case you don't know, drabbles are fics that are 100 words each). I'll put which characters and/or spoilers/summary for each one...I plan on adding to this since I write drabbles a lot (mostly originals) and I find them easy. Oh, and they're not meant to be read as a continual story, each are their own contained thing. I hope they're liked. Review, as always :) Thank you!

I

"10-13"

Spoilers: none

Characters: Bosco and Faith

Guns upholstered, stances tense and ready, hearts pounding they entered the building not know what was to come. They matched each other's thoughts, movements so completely that they became one being, one force. Sticking to shadows, backs against walls they crept, eyes searching. It was then, in the span of a moment that the unthinkable happened. The loud crack of gunfire deafened their ears and she screamed in pain falling to the ground. He fell to her side noting the deep crimson staining her uniform. He looked up firing unmercifully until all he heard was silence. "10-13. 10-13. Officer Down!"

II

"Stigmatized" [To characterize or brand as disgraceful or ignominious.]

Spoilers: none

Character: Cruz

She carried them everywhere she went, her invisible marks of folly, her downfalls, her sins. They were written beneath her strong, cool exterior tattooed upon her skin with unseen ink. They where intertwined latently in her intense eyes, always there, waiting to be discovered. She was broken. Flawed. It was only a matter of time before they found out, before Bosco saw through the lies. It was only a matter of time before the darkness ate at her so completely that there was no going back. And in the darkness so deep she cried for life and prayed for death.  

III

"Periculum" [Latin: Danger, risk]

Spoilers: "Black and Blue"

Character: Kim

Heart racing she ran, feet pounding against concrete. She yelled, crying for help hearing nothing but silence, finality. So this is it, she thought, this is how it's going to end.  Looking back, hair falling into her face she saw nothing. That scared her more than when they were chasing her. She was helpless now. Prey for sickos who masqueraded in the guise of angels. She felt weak, her breaths ragged. Dear God, somebody help me. She saw lights, feeling a rush of relief. 55 David. Out walked Bosco and Cruz and she ran into the safety of true heroes.

A/N: Ok, so there is the first set of 3. I just wrote whatever came to mind. If anyone has any requests I'd be happy do to those ;). Anyways, I hope they are descent enough! Let me know and review. Thanx.
