Shadowing

Chapter 1

Disclaimer: I do not own Kickin' It

"Anderson!" Captain Rudy said. He stepped out of his office and leaned against the door frame.

I looked up from the current paperwork I was doing. I set my pen down and leaned back in my chair.

"Yeah, what's up?" I asked giving him a slight nod.

Captain leaned up off the door frame and took a step forwards.

"I want you to find Martinez, Krupnick, and Kain. I want the four of you in my office in 5 minutes, flat."

I pursed my lips and nodded. I got up out of my chair and walked towards Captain.

"Rudy, I just have one question for you."

"Shoot." He said crossing his arms.

"Why can't you call us by our first name?" I asked him.

"Because, I'm the one in authority here!" He whined. "Just because you're the best detective here, in San Jose, doesn't mean you can go around and question my authority. Don't think that nothing would happen to you, mister. I'm not afraid to suspend you!"

Woah, something must be really bothering Captian. I don't think I've ever seen him so upset. I didn't mean to question his authority or anything. I threw my hands up in defense and took a couple of steps backwards.

"Sorry, Captain. I didn't mean to question your authority. It was just a question."

He ran his fingers through his hair and looked down. He inhaled and exhaled deeply.

"Look, I'm sorry Jack. I'm just stressed out." Wow, I think that's the first time he actually called me by my first name. I quickly shook off the feeling.

"What are you so stressed about?" I asked him.

Captain just shook his head.

"Just gather up the rest of the detectives and meet back in here."

I nodded in agreement. I watched him as he walked back into his office and sit down in frustration. I wonder what had him so stressed out. I turned around and walked up to Milton's desk. He was reading some book. He looked really interested in it. I stood behind him and put my hands in my pockets.

"What do you want, Jack?" Milton asked.

"How did you know I was here?"

"I heard you coming, plus my desk is right next to Captain's office and I head you guys talking. Just go find the rest of the guys and I will meet you in his office in 5. Just like he said."

"Okay then." I said.

I let out a small chuckle before turning around and heading towards the break room. When I opened up the door, I saw Eddie sitting at a table eating donuts. Jerry was just spread out across the couch, sleeping.

"Eddie, grab a couple of donuts and meet in Captain's office. Okay?"

He nodded his head and grabbed a handful of donuts. He soon left the break room. I walked over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water. I went over to Jerry, opened the bottled water and dumped it on his head.

"Woah!" He yelled, jumping off the couch. He started to wipe the water out of his eyes.

"Jack! What the hell was that for?" He said walking over and grabbing a towel.

"Let's go." I said. I walked over to him, grabbed his arm and dragged him to Captain's office.

"Jerry, why are you all wet?" Captain asked, once we got inside his office. Milton and Eddie were sitting in the two chairs across from Captain's desk. Jerry stood in the corner, wiping the water off himself. I just leaned against the door.

"Jack woke me up by dumping water all over me." Jerry said, glaring at me.

"Okay, whatever. I have some news to share with you." We stared at him in anticipation. "You all know that the detective that got in a car accident, 6 months ago. Right?"

We all nodded.

"Well, she works at the 15th precinct and they said that they wouldn't re-qualify her as a detective, until she gets back into the groves of being a detective. The Captain there said that he would want her to shadow someone. He called me up and asked if it was okay if she shadowed Jack. I told him it was okay."

"Okay. So, why were you all nervous?" I asked.

"She is going to be here for three months and the only reason why you were chosen was because she is the second best detective in San Jose."

"If this is all news for Jack, why all we all here?" Milton asked, gesturing to himself and the other guys.

"I know that you are all friends, so I thought while she was here, you could all work as a team."

"What do you mean?" I was so confused.

"Instead of each of you working on separate homicides, you will work as a team together. I mean, We aren't the most important precinct in San Jose, so it's not like we get a lot of them anyways."

"What's the detective's name that is going to be shadowing me?"

"Her file says that her name is Kimberly Crawford."

"What do we know about her?"

Captain grabbed a file off of his desk, opened it up and looked through it. It looked like he was reading something.

"We don't know much. In the file they sent over, it just gives us information about her job and the files about her car accident." Captain said.

"Wait, why did they send over the files about her car accident?" I asked.

"They sent it over because it was a hit and run. Witnesses say that the person in the car seemed eager and kind of happy to hit her. It sounds like it was a planned attack."

"So, they are saying that this was a planned attack? Why would someone want to kill a detective?"

"I don't know, but they don't want her working on this case. The Captain said that she would want the files and want to work on this, so we can't let her. Got it?"

"OKay, but howcome they sent the files over?" Milton asked sitting up straighter in his chair. Captain closed the file and set it back down on his desk.

"They sent files over because they want Jack to work on it."

"I nodded my head and walked over to Captain's desk.

"Can I see the file?" I asked.

"Here you go."

He handed me the file. I opened it up and started to scan through it.

"There is nothing to go off of here though. The guy or girl who was driving, was wearing all black. It says that they tracked the license plates to someone's house, but no prints were found on the inside or outside of the car. Not even the family that owned it. The couple that owned it, Jane and Scott Handott, have air tight alibi's. They went through everything on them and found nothing on them. Bank records, phone record, credit card; everything seems normal." I told them.

"Jack, man. You'll figure it out. You weren't names number one detective for nothing." Jerry said. He walked up and patted my shoulder.

"Thanks man." I smiled. "So when does Kimberly get here?"

"She will be here in about and hour." Captain said, looking at his watch.

"Okay." I said.

With that, the four of us exited Captain's office and waited.
Author's Note: Hey guys! I will update my other story this week. I wrote this and decided to publish it. I'm trying hard to keep their personalities mostly the same. I don't know Eddie's last name. I searched for like and hour trying to find it, but I couldn't find anything so I chose Kain as his last name. I will only continue this is you like it, so REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
