Somewhat Disclaimer/Rant:: First of all, I'd like to say THANK YOU NBC, for
making us WAIT UNTIL SEPTEMBER to find out WHO GETS SHOT. Of course, I
don't own any of these characters, we've all pretty much said how we wish
we did. So, I'm glad we get to share them, and torture them. Right then,
since NBC screwed us, I've come up with my own theory, havingwatched
third watch since it first aired back in '99. I wouldn't call this a
spoiler, because I was completely wrong about the season finale, but, if
this does happen, so be it. We wont know UNTIL SEPTEMBER. Anyway, here's my
idea of what's going to happen- Peace::
The Way of the Gun- Part 1~
The gun shot's pierced the silence in the room, two guns fired, one remained silent. "oh my god." Faith looked down to the floor, not believing what she was seeing. Bosco was holding his gun in disbelief. He didn't actually think it went off, and he didn't think Faith and Cruz would stand off like that. He should have guessed, he should have known. He had been both of their partners, why couldn't he have seen this coming? Cruz fell to the floor. Noble was in shock, not even aware that he had been the one shot.
"Noble! Talk to me!" Cruz didn't get an audible answer, and that made her even more frustrated. "Dam nit Noble talk to me!" She shook him a little, and he acted like he didn't know who she was, or where he was. "You son of a bitch!" She jerked her head, and yelled at Bosco. Bosco flipped up his gun, so it was no longer facing her. She could call him whatever she wanted. He didn't care anymore. He had done what was right, for the first time in at least a month. "You'll pay for this." She said, through gritted teeth. Just then, Noble grabbed a hold of her collar. "Help.me.." he coughed, and drew blood. She looked at him in disgust. She no longer had a credible witness, but instead, a fumbling idiot, who was going to be dead faster then she could call an ambulance. "We need a rush on a bus at Lifton Hotel, Brookshire Avenue." She spoke into the talkie, while looking at Bosco. "And I was going to make you my star." She said, with her hands on her hips, completely ignoring Noble's calls for help. There was nothing she could do for him now. "That's what Star Search is for." Bosco said casually. Faith didn't know whether to laugh, or to shake her head. "You wont be laughing for long, Maurice." Cruz shoved the talkie in the back pocket of her pants, and whisked her hair. She then kneeled down on the floor next to Noble. She tried to reassure him, everything was going to be fine. "You need to stay strong, Noble. Don't die on me now! We have put too much on you!" Bosco, putting his gun on the couch, with Faith keeping a close eye on it, shoved Cruz out of the way, and grabbed a hold of Noble's wrist.
"Look at me." He said calmly. Noble looked, and winced. "The only way you're going to get yourself away from this crap," he looked at Cruz for a moment, and then continued, "is testifying you shot that guy in self defense." He nodded his head, and saw that Noble did the same. "What are you doing?" Cruz ordered, like she was still his boss. Bosco glared at her, "I'm saving our asses." He continued kneeling next to Noble, telling him to breathe, every now and then. Cruz stood up, and started to yell. "So he just gets away with it?" Bosco rubbed his forehead. He was really sick of hearing her whiny voice. "He's testifying." He said simply. "Real cute Bosco, real cute-" "It's officer Boscorelli to you." Bosco turned his head to look at her. She bit her tongue, and started to walk out. Bosco looked back to Noble, who was silently thinking, 'how can I make this into a book?'
"That jag off gets away with killing my sister?" Cruz started again, Bosco didn't look at her this time. Faith did, as though fascinated. "You're sister killed herself by doing those drugs. I didn't see him handing them to her." Cruz flew at him.
Faith wouldn't have this. "Get off me, bitch." Cruz shoved faith off of her. "Make me." She dared, and Bosco couldn't help but half grin. "I'll have you for assaulting a sergeant." Cruz had her hands on her hips again, and stood right in Faith's face. Faith kept her position, blocking Cruz from getting to Bosco. "Who are your witnesses?" Faith had her hands in the loops of her belt. Cruz' eyes glowed. "Them two." She breathed. Bosco puffed, "Who's them two?" He looked around, "I don't see anyone." He shrugged, still checking Noble's breathing.
"You'd do that to me Bosco?" Cruz couldn't believe it. She thought she had Bosco in the palm of her hand, right where she wanted him. She thought those nights they shared, were enough to make him bow down to her every command. Where had she gone wrong?
"I'd lock you up myself, and throw away the key." Bosco stood up now, next to Faith. They were partners again. He couldn't help but burst inside. He couldn't believe how much he had missed this. This feeling, of belonging, being loved, being part of something. Something, that was worth living for. Of course, he wouldn't mention this to Faith. Ever.
Cruz didn't have time to respond for, her backup had just arrived. Her unit was already investigating the hotel room.
"Bosco, get over here. Now." Bosco stood with his arms folded. The paramedics, whom Bosco didn't notice weren't from their precinct, started to work. Faith and him still didn't know about Alex, or the firecheif.
"Officer Boscorelli, get over here." Bosco couldn't ask for more then that. He looked at Faith, who didn't have any reaction for him to go off of, so he had to go.
Both he and Cruz separated themselves from the now full room of officers and paramedics.
"We can share the credit. Half and half. Fifty, fifty." She began. "I know what half and half means, Cruz." He said her name, with relish.
"You can honestly say that, you want a drug dealer, a killer, to go free? We could put him away, and we could use him", he jerked a finger in Noble's direction, "for other cases. This is too good of an opportunity for you to screw up for me, for us." Bosco puffed again, and shifted his position. He put his hands in his pockets, and waited for the rest of her sob story.
"Come on Bosco," she saw Bosco's face, and quickly said, "Officer Boscorelli. We could be so good together. You've already proven you've got what it takes. You've got the determination, and the skill. Don't go wasting it on regular police work, when you can even more useful in the special unit." Bosco looked at her, suddenly being very thankful he hadn't told her he loved her.
"I know you want this, I know you know you want this. ESU is just around the corner. Within a year, you could be out of training, and on your way. Where will downstairs get you? No where, but a dead end. You'll be chasing after skells you're never going to catch for good. The streets will never be perfect. You're chasing after something that pissed you off a long time ago, and that is useless in this world. You could be something. Not another one of those clipboard carrying buffoons, who walk the same line everyday, with no where else to go. Nobody wants them, they have no skill. You have skill. ESU will want you.I want you." Bosco had been looking at the ground, with no intention of taking what Cruz said seriously. When she said she needed him, he had had enough. She had been walking on a tight rope, for a long time. It was time that he cut it, and watched her fall, for once.
"I'm telling the truth," he pointed to Noble, "he's going to jail." Bosco gave a fake smile, and walked away from his past. Faith again, following closely behind him.
Cruz had half a mind to chase after him. Bosco was a dumb stubborn ass, who needed to be knocked off his high horse, and back into reality.
She wiped her face of swear, as she drove at a dangerous speed down Brookshire Avenue. She was going to get through to him, if it was the last thing, she ever did.
**Note! A couple names, like the hotel, road, etc. will probably be wrong. Just read past that, at the actual story- more will be coming later, but I need reviews to tell me if I should go on!!!!!**
