The Haunting Secret Past

Chapter 1

"Looks like I'm first again, typical" says Jules rolling her eyes while walking into the SRU briefing room.

As she sits and waits she drifts off into her inner thought not knowing of a person coming up behind her.

"Starting to slack off into dreamland I see" a mysterious voice says.

Jules jumps and turns around only to find Sam standing there with his cocky grin.

"Dammit Sam don't do that to me!" cries Jules while punching him in the arm.

"Sorry Jules I just couldn't resist." says Sam while laughing. Jules rolled her eyes at her blond, blue-eyed boyfriend.

"Of course you couldn't" she says sarcastically. "Hey, Can you blame a guy for trying?" He says.

" Blame who for trying what?" Calls out a voice. Sam and Jules turn to see Sergeant Parker and the rest of team one walking toward them.

"Trying to scare Jules again I see, Sam?" says Parker." Of course, what else?" he reply's. "Ah the old scare act gets the ladies every time." Says Spike.

" Apparently not today Spike, total failure in my mind. "Reply's Jules. "By that you mean when you jumped and turned with a surprised look?" asked Ed.

"Crap you saw that?" she cries. "Of course it was all Sam's idea" answers Parker. Jules rolls her eyes "Oh god I should have known."

"Hey, in my defense they helped come up with the idea, so don't start going off on me." Sam says as he puts his hands up in defense.

Jules turns took look at all of her teammates and she sees them all trying to avoid eye contact. "Well, am I going to get an answer or do I have to pull it out of you." Jules threatens sarcastically. Instantly Spike an Ed Point at the Sergeant crying, "Sarge did it!"

"Now hold on don't even think of pinning all of this on me, each one of you is just as guilty." He said Pointing to Ed, Spike, Sam, and Raff. As all of them start to argue sirens start to echo throughout the room.

"Team One hot call shots fired in downtown!" Says Whiney. "Alright gear up will disgust this later, in an adult manner!" Sergeant Parker shouts through the sirens. "Copy that." They all shout. Little did Jules they know that this day would a whole lot worse.

Later, after four calls back to back, Jules walks into the briefing room while talking to Spike she spots a athletic built man with brown cropped hair and deep dark hazel eyes walked up to Whiney.

Jules recognizes the strange man and gives a disgust look in her eyes. "Great what is he doing here?" she thought. Spike looks at Jules and recognizes her look all to well and looks in her eyesight direction and looks back at her.

"Hey, what's with you, do you know that guy?" Spike asks confused. As if coming out of a trance Jules looks at Spike with confused eyes. "Huh, oh yea I just worked with him before I applied for the SRU, trust me its nothing." She answers and then smiles.

Inside Jules was in a total panic, "Oh crap if Spike and the others find out who this guy is I'm going to be covered in a whole lot of trouble." She thought.| "Hey Spike, why don't you ask the guys if they want to get a beer later after shift?" she suddenly says. "Uh, sure" he says and starts to walk off.

"Man, is it me or is Jules acting really weird all of a sudden?", Spike turns to look at Jules again and sees her looking so angry, but hurting and afraid inside and if he knows Jules she doesn't cry easily. Spike shakes his head, "Maybe its just me, if I know Jules she can tell us anything, right?" Spike thinks to himself as he turns the corner.

Jules looks to see if Spike was out of hearing until she could brief a sigh of relief. "Whew, that was a really close call." Jules says quietly to himself. " Well I see that you still talk to yourself a voice calls out.

Jules looks up to see the strange man come walking to her. "Juliana, looking just as beautiful as usual." He adds. "Chris, same as always, haven't changed one bit have you?"

Jules knew undercover agent Chris McGillicutty all to well, and she knew that he wanted something. "All right Chris what do you want this time, and don't even think about asking me to come back it won't work." she says.

Chris sighs "Look Jules I would love it if you came back, but that's not why I'm here." "Then what, if not the job than is it a famous confession?" Jules asked jokingly. Chris looks at Jules with a serious look and she could tell that something was totally off.

"Chris, I don't like that look now tell me what's wrong?" Chris looks at Jules and finally speaks. "It's about your last case, he's gone Jules." Jules knew instantly what he was talking about. She turned real pale and fell down into a chair.

Jules looks at Chris, "No, it can't be, I thought we put him away for good." She says in a shaky voice. "We thought so to, but our Intel picked up the tip.", he pause adding, " Merkov escaped and we believe that he is coming the whole team, and then he's coming to kill you."
