Chapter 1: "Look's like he's a she"

"Flack, what's goin' on here?" Danny questioned.

"Got an anonymous tip, said there was a dead body in one of the buildings on Center Road in the Bronx," Don replied, shutting his notebook.

"We have to go through all these buildings?" the other man said.

"We can split up," another voice chimed in.

"Hey Mac, where's Monroe? She finally get tired of you Messer?" Flack joked.

"Ha ha ha, very funny Flack. Montana got a call out to the Queens, double homicide," Danny replied.

There was a loud crack in the air and everyone ducked for cover. "NYPD, show yourselves!" Flack yelled out, gun raised. A sound of laughter rang out around the street. Danny looked around and spotted two speakers that blended with the color of the buildings.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE DIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TO CENTER ROAD AS WE PRESENT TO YOU THE BEASTS OF THE BRONX WITH THE STEPPER OF STATEN ISLAND, IT'S, IT'S," the voice called out again.

"It's Bronx Heart y'all," a rough, Italian voice finished, countering its partner.

Six figures appeared in the middle of the street, wearing dark clothes. Flack dialed a number on his cell phone. "This is Detective Flack requesting back-up on Center Road in the Bronx; repeat appears to be a four male-two female group, possibly armed and dangerous. Requesting all near-by units for back-up," he spoke into the phone. Shutting the phone, he moved closer to Danny and Mac. Suddenly, loud underground rap music filled the street and the figures began to dance. The central figure wore a black hooded jacket with black sweatpants and black Shocks. He taunted the three men, getting closer to them and backing away. Sirens filled the air and more squad cars arrived. Finally, the song was over and dancers froze. The police officers drew their weapons. "NYPD, get on the ground!" Flack yelled out. Suddenly, the figures all ran in different directions. Two of them stood in the middle of the street, ready to fight.

Flack, Danny, and Mac, along with other officers, took after the figures.

She quickly darted into another alley after finishing her route. She bumped into someone. "Angelo, what the hell!? Your route is the other direction. You tryin' to get us jacked!" she growled at the frightened boy menacingly. The boy shook his head, eyes wide with fear. The girl growled again. She darted out of the alley way and followed the kid's route, hoping the officers had given up. Unfortunately, Danny saw had seen her dart out of the alley way and chased after her. "NY Crime lab, stop!" he screamed at her. She began throwing trash cans and garbage in his way behind her, trying to stop him. Finally, she turned down another alley way and jumped onto the fence. She began to climb. Danny jumped onto her from behind, managing to grab her ankle. She kicked her foot back, connecting with his face. She heard a crack and smiled. He let go of her foot for a brief second and she began climbing faster. But the man jumped again, caught her lower body. He threw her back to the ground. She heard other footsteps approach quickly and felt her arms being handcuffed behind her back. She still had her hood up, concealing her identity.

"I chased him for about twelve blocks. He came out of an alley way back there. Idiot didn't even see me," the blonde cop told the other cop.

"Ottengali all'inferno fuori di me asini della presa!(Get the hell off of me you jack asses!)" the kid screamed at them.

Danny shoved the kid against the fence. "What did you say punk?" he asked menacingly.

"Così il moron capisce la sua linguetta natale (So the moron does understand his native tongue)" the kid replied sarcastically.

"What's he saying Messer?" Flack asked, still holding onto the kid.

"All talk and no walk Flack. Now let's put a face to this little big man," Danny replied. He pulled the hood off the kid's face, his jaw dropping in surprise.

"Looks like he's a she," Flack stated, eyes widening in surprise.

"Welcome to 'da Bronx, you morons," the girl responded in a rough, Italian accent.
