Leaving Civilization, Entering Chaos
Chapter one
Author's Note: This is a A/U story. They have not met before. It's just a story that involves Ryan and Marissa. A little Summer and maybe a bit of Seth. But mostly R/M. I wrote this story for a different couple so I just switched names. I hope you like it. It starts out a bit slow but it's okay. The people at the DC board liked it.(except one person).
Ryan is a police officer who is trying to track down a serial killer. The next person on the serial killer's list is Marissa Cooper, an artist. ENJOY!
"Come, Now!" Chief Mike Peters of the police force ordered.
Ryan immediately jogged to his bosses office, worried that something was terribly wrong.
"What can I do for you sir?" The 6 foot, 2 inch, man asked.
"Since you have been on medical leave for three months now and you're probably deadly bored just sitting
around, answering phones, and whatnot. I have a new case for you." Peters stated looking at the muscular
blonde headed man.
Atwood had been on a drug bust four and a half months ago and while he was trying to catch and arrest a 30
something drug dealer, another moron shot a bullet, aiming for Ryan's head. Luckily, this idiot had pretty
awful aim and shot him in the stomach. He was rushed to the emergency, and was slowly recovering. Ryan
decided he wanted to go back to work only a month ago.
"What's the case sir?" Atwood asked anxiously.
"In Riggs Texas, there's a woman named Marissa Cooper. 892 South Baltimore Blvd. Blonde hair. Hazel
eyes. Five feet, seven inches." Peters was interrupted by Atwood.
"What did she do for me to go after her? Rob a bank? Shoot a cop? Steal a car? Kill a person?"
"No, not like that. We don't want you to arrest her. I want you to always keep an eye on her.
Do you remember the serial killer, David Breath, the one we didn't capture? Killed twenty-eight woman,
eighteen children, and zip on men. All of the children were girls ages six to fifteen."
"Yeah, I remember that guy. Why?" Ryan asked genuinely confused.
"We have knowledge to believe, actually we are 100% on this, that his next victim is Miss Cooper. So as I
was saying before, Marissa Cooper is 24, the same age as you, single, and I might add beautiful."
Peters said handing over all the necessary information including a picture of Marissa.
"My, she is ." Ryan agreed.
"So tomorrow you have a flight to Riggs Texas. Nine o'clock sharp is when it leaves. You have reservations
at the Hilton there. The next morning try to find Miss Cooper. She has a scheduled painting class and you are
signed on for the class. She's the teacher and it starts at two.
As you already know but I will tell you again. Under NO circumstance will you tell Miss Cooper you are a
undercover cop. In her eyes, you're gonna be Ryan Atwood, want-to-be painter, friendly and outdoorsy pal,
who comes over to her house everyday to talk."
"Sounds good to me." Ryan said, ready to meet the lovely-looking Marissa. Raising to his feet, Ryan
shook his boss's hand and walked out of the room.
What Ryan Atwood didn't know was tomorrow after he stepped off of his plane in Riggs Texas, what a hell
of a ride he was in for.
