So this story just came to me. It is AU and some characters may be OOC but considering it is an AU story that can be somewhat expected.

Enjoy


Lima was unusually quiet for this time of year. Normally there would be high school students running from shop to shop enjoying themselves. Ever since Shannon Bieste died the previous year the small town had never been the same. The McKinley board of directors had decided it was best to close down the school until the gang behind her death was caught. All people that were considered to be a target were moved into safe houses with their families.

A small group of men and women aged 17 to 35 walked down the street dressed in black trench coats and silver masks covering their faces. To most people this would have caused fear but to the group hiding in a small alley way it meant the moment had arrived. Months of careful planning and surveillance had finally paid off. Finn felt his fingers twitching around his gun as he felt the excitement, nervousness and anxiety crashing into his system at the same time. It was now or never and he was certain that the only people walking away from this fight would be his side. Slowly he rounded the corner and out into the open.

"Drop your weapons" he shouted, firing his gun once before pointing it at the group in the middle of the road. Looking up in surprise they ran to different points around the town. Some choosing to hide behind chairs and tables, while others decided that hiding in the alley was a far better spot. To Finn it didn't matter where they hid. This would be their last fight and he for one was not going to leave anyone alive.

Finn heard shuffling behind him and turned quickly to see that most of his men and women had come out of the alley to stand as a defined unit, while the rest snuck through the shadows to get closer to the other group. He turned back when he heard one of the gang members shouting at his group from the middle of the street.

"Stop being cowards, get back up here and prepare for a fight" he yelled in a vicious tone. Slowly all of the gang members; which Finn counted to be twelve, walked out from their hiding places to stand behind the masked man who had given the orders.

"Well, if it isn't Finn Hudson" his smooth voice rang out threw the deserted town. As soon as the words left his mouth Finn knew who it was: Luka St James. Finn had a few encounters with the Luka, he was known for his unmerciful personality and authority in the Lima community. While McKinley was open Finn had gone to school with Luka's son Jesse. Even though he wasn't as bad as his father, he found pleasure in taunting those who he thought were beneath him, Finn being one of his main targets. Even though he tried to ignore the younger St James' taunts it wasn't until it was revealed that Jesse was the one intended to kill Bieste that Finn began to truly hate him.

"I would say it is nice to see you to Luka but I would be lying" Finn growled back, causing the rest of Luka's group to laugh.

"Give yourselves up or end up dead" he yelled, trying to frighten some of the group into submission. It almost worked. He saw a few to the sides leaning to put their weapons on the ground. They would have succeeded if Luka hadn't decided to turn around.

"What do you think you are doing?" he barked. The few who were about to surrender snapped up with their weapons still in hand. Once satisfied that they weren't going to turn themselves in he faced back to Finn.

"As much fun as this is, we have elsewhere to be" he smirked before tossing a silver object onto the ground just in front of himself. With a loud crack the object exploded into a ball of smoke covering Luka and the majority of his group.

"Don't move" Finn yelled at his team. He wasn't sure if this was an ambush like attack or not. Once the smoke started to disappear Finn noticed that Luka and the group members standing behind him had disappeared.

"Shit" Finn yelled before turning and facing his group. The looks on his teams face said everything. Once McKinley had closed down most members of the Glee club had joined the notorious group named The Phoenix, to help in the fight against Sue Sylvester.

"Spread out, look for anything that can trace us back to Sue's hideout" he yelled. Not wanting to upset him further, they began scrambling around, looking in shops and alley ways trying to find any evidence. Finn just stood there hoping they would find something.

"I blew it Puck" he sighed, turning to see his best friend Noah Puckerman standing there. "I shouldn't have talked, I knew it was giving them time to escape" He turned back to watch the members of his team still running around.

"Don't worry dude" he heard Puck say softly, putting a hand on his shoulder. "We'll get them soon" Finn turned and smiled at his friend before watching him join the rest of the team on the street.


It seemed like three hours had passed but Finn knew it had only been twenty minutes. Puck and Quinn Fabray had searched through one of the clothing stores, Artie and Sugar had walked to the end of road and back and Sam, Kurt, Blaine, Brittany, Santana and Lauren had searched in the local pub.

It was then that Finn remembered he had hit one of the gang members with the bullet he fired off after stepping out from the ally way. He walked over to the spot where the person had stood and looked around the area. He couldn't see any trace of an unconscious man or woman anywhere.

"There is someone around here somewhere" he bellowed, making sure everyone heard him. At the sound of this information everyone begin foraging around faster, eager to see if there was a body anywhere.

Finn continued down the road making his way slowly up to Kurt and Blaine, who were standing outside a candy store.

"Sorry Finn there was nothing in there" Kurt sighed, pointing a finger behind him at the shop. Finn was about to reply when he heard the words he had been waiting for.

"We found them" Quinn's loud scream echoed from down the street. Turning his back on Kurt he ran as fast as he could to where Quinn and Puck were standing. As he got closer he could see a small figure lying on the ground. When he reached them Quinn threw herself into his arms.

"We found her" she said gleefully. The smile which formed on her face quickly fell as Finn un-wrapped her from his body and stepped forward to get a look at the woman who now lay on the ground. By now the rest of his team present had crowded around, determined to get a glimpse of the unconscious body in the woods.

"Must be one tough chick if she managed to make it this far with a bullet wound in her leg" Puck chuckled.

"Lauren, Sam get this back to Will's place. The rest of us will make sure everything is back to normal" Finn shouted, a smile forming on his lips. Finally I can get some worthwhile information he thought. The entire time school had been out The Phoenix only had sightings and rumours to go off. Even though they had worked months to get a face off, having a gang member to question would make his job much easier.

Lauren and Sam grabbed a hold of the woman's arms before walking over to a truck parked in an alley way. Once they were gone the group left behind let out a loud cheer. Things were starting to look up.


It was an hour before any of the remaining team got back. They had done the best they could to restore everything back to normal, not that there was much they needed to do. They made sure that no shop keepers or shoppers were hurt before they had got there. Once their job was done they drove back to Will's house.

"Where is the prisoner?" was the first question out of Finn's mouth. Judy Fabray jumped around in surprise before pointing up the stairs. Looking around at his friends he walked out of the kitchen. He was sure they wouldn't follow; they knew he needed to see what vile, cruel person was under the mask on his own.

As he walked up the stairs and passed the bathroom door he heard shouting coming from one of the top bedrooms. The closer he got the louder the yelling got. The last set of stairs before the landing he had made out that the voice yelling belonged to a woman. As he opened the door he stopped and looked at the sight before him. Sitting in a chair with her hands tied behind her back was the most gorgeous woman he had even seen. She had wild brown hair and big chocolate eyes which were burning with fury as she glared at him.

"Well if it isn't the man who just won't die" she spat. "If you expect me to give you any information you are sorely mistaken. I would never give my masters location to anyone, especially not you" she yelled pulling against her restraints. Taken slightly by her aggressiveness he looked at Will who was standing behind her.

"We haven't found out much. She refuses to speak and has been a handful since she woke up" he sighed. "The only thing that seems to come from her mouth is how her master is going to come and kill us all" he continued. Finn looked back at the woman sitting in the chair still trying to free herself from the ropes bound to her wrists.

She looks about the same age as me he thought. He walked slowly over to her and kneeled down to stare into her eyes.

"What is your name?" he spoke softly. The response he got was nothing he expected.

"None of your fucking business" she screamed before spitting on his face. He stood up and wiped his face before looking back at Will who was shaking his head.

"I have Emma working on an ID for her" not a moment after speaking the words Emma walked into the room with a smile on her face.

"I have a name" she practically screamed, before calming herself down to act more professional.

"Oh wow smart woman you have there" came a sarcastic remark from behind him. Not paying it any attention he continued to stare at Emma. She seemed to understand the question in his eyes and spoke firmly.

"Her name is Rachel Berry"
