RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
It had been four days since the death of Garrett Mcdonner and Drake had not struck as he had promised he would. The whole department sat in annoyance and paranoia as they awaited the attack of the next victim in Thomas Drake's revenge game. Maura and Jane sat at a table in the café with all eyes on them and every murmur related to them, Frankie walked in and felt the tension that laid thick in the air.
"Wow you two sure know how to stir up some talk," he said as he pulled a chair up next to them and stole a sip of Jane's coffee earning a glare.
"Well this is ridiculous, every cop and detective in the precinct has to watch their backs for god knows how long and all the officer's who were at the crime scene are getting pissed at the protective detail place with them."
"Me included."
"Yeah, where is Rigs how did you slip him?" Jane asked her brother who only gave her a sneaky smile.
"You know that's what he wants, you to separate yourself so you are alone and then bam he will attack, this is in a study." Maura chimed in.
"I'm gonna be fine, Rigs went to the bathroom, he knows I was going here." Jane could tell that Frankie was tired of the need of a body guard but she only wanted to keep him safe, besides the department was going to lift it tomorrow because it was backing everyone up. Frankie read Jane like an open book and quickly changed the subject.
"So this party is tomorrow how are you two going to distract Lydia?"
"Damn it I completely forgot Ma is going to kill me, Maura and I have to finish up a pile of these profiles on Drake so that we can catch him," Jane stopped for a second and looked to Frankie giving him puppy eyes that she rarely used.
"Oh no you are not pushing her off on me how am I going to get her to spend two hours with me ?"
"TJ, duh." Frankie gave a sarcastic laugh and took Jane in a head lock.
"How about you take them to the children's exhibit at the science center it is very educational and would benefit." Maura said in a matter of fact proud of her contribution to the plan.
"Maura, TJ is a baby he won't know how to process what is happening." Jane said to her partner, Maura sunk a little in her chair. Just as they began discussing a plan Kosak and Frost came running in with another envelope in hand.
"I gotta go, Janie you owe me one! I'll see you tomorrow." He waved by and joined officer Rigs.
"Jane, he narrowed it down," Frost said out of breath
"To who?" Jane asked wide eyed.
"The people at the Melanie Orbro's crime scene." Kosak handed the detective the envelope inside was the same picture that they had gotten before and all officer and detectives where displayed.
" don't worry this Son of a Bitch won't get any of our guys." Jane said, she flipped over the photo and read the message from Drake.
"His demise shall be tomorrow at noon, smoke a mirrors will cloud your perception of the true meaning of my message." They all looked at each other , what could this mean, and who was the next victim?
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIII
All the men and woman cramped in a room filled with anger at the fact that on a Saturday they where cramped together.
"Wont this make it easier for Drake to attack?" one officer questioned
"And what about our families, we have lives we can't stay here all day!" Another yelled.
"We understand that you are all pissed but we are only trying to keep you alive, trust us." Jane said back, she was sick of the complaining and she knew her mother was going to kill her for missing the party but she had to be alive so that Angela could have the satisfaction of complaining.
"Jane we have the photo and all the names so shall we call them by name to make sure we have everyone?" Maura asked handing her the photo, Jane could tell that Maura was just as annoyed but she would never complain like the rest not when she saw Jane getting bombarded by questions.
"Yeah let's do it." Jane stood on a table and whistled grabbing everyone's attention.
"Ok, I call your name you raise your hand, it's not hard a 4 year old can do it." A grumbled wave of answers filled the room as Jane began, four names had been checked of the ones she knew so she started with name five.
"Lewis, Marks, Nardens, Queens, Mallen, Grier, Brin, Simons, Phillips, Vercence, Rigs, Epps, Drivert, Butler, Smith, Nemen, and Collins, good now we wait at this location until we get word that we can leave."
"Wait we're missing someone!" Officer Charles Phillips.
"Who, we have everyone in this picture," Frost said in a worried tone as he scanned the picture again.
"My partner that day we watched the door, but I came in to report that we were leaving because we got a call nearby."
"Who was your partner Phillips?" Kosak shook Phillips as they rushed for the information.
"Frankie, your brother Jane."
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Frankie pushed TJ's stroller into the park with Lydia and Tommy with him laughing at a memory, everything was going great. Frankie had, with Tommy's help gotten Lydia to spend the day with them and finally landing at the park where Angela had set up the party. They only thing he could have done without was Tommy's inability to be undetected of any suspicion.
"Frankie" He heard someone yelled from behind only to turn and find it to be Jane the one who said he was to keep Lydia occupied.
"Janie, what are you doing here?" he asked through gritted teeth and a fake smile only to see her realize the reason that Frankie was in the park.
"Frankie, its why haven't you been answering your phone?" Jane yelled
"Jane what's wrong?" Tommy and Lydia looked confused on why Jane was yelling at Frankie, the case was on a need to know basis and everyone in the public only related the deaths to accidents.
"I'm a little busy!"
"We will be right back give me a minute" Jane yanked Frankie by the arm leaving Maura with Tommy and Lydia an awkward situation.
"Jane what the HELL you're hurting me," Frankie said as he yanked his arm back.
"Why didn't you tell me that you where at Obro's crime scene!"
"I was there for like two minutes, then I got a call and Rigs and I left besides you called everyone in the picture." Jane released her tension and nodded, "I was worried the note said at noon he would kill the person, but Rigs mentioned you and I got scared."
"Janie, it's one thirty," Out of all the chaos Jane had forgotten the time and right about now they where releasing at the officers and detective.
"Can we go now moms waiting." Jane nodded and walked with Frankie to relief Maura.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
"I thought you were never coming here you scared me," Angela said as she ate cake with her kids and Maura , the party had gone great and Lydia was surprised so Angela was happy which meant no more stress.
"Why do you ever doubt us Ma," Frankie said nudging Jane with his elbow.
"I have to admit it I did but you came through."
"I'm going to get a drink do you want anything?" Maura asked Jane
"I'll come with you, knowing you, you'll skip out on my beer." Jane said in a sassed tone.
"Hey Grab me one, we gotta celebrate" Frankie laughed.
"For what?" Angela asked.
"No more nagging," Jane let it slip causing everyone but Angela to laugh, but then it happened and the laughing stopped. Screams erupted through the air and everything became rushed no one knew what to do as the bullets came flying at the party.
"TOMMY!" Jane screamed, he had run to TJ and Lydia before anyone could grab him. Everything was Chaotic as people ran in all different directions trying to dodge, three people had been hit and everything in Maura screamed to run to help them.
"Tommy come back!" Angela yelled she tried to get up but Jane pulled her back down and drew her weapon, "Where are these shots coming from," she yelled to Frankie and Maura who where just as clueless as her.
"There are multiple locations, I think that there are more than one shooter," Frankie yelled over the hail of gunfire. Jane scanned the area but it was hard to make anything out, but she did catch the one thing that stopped her heart, Tommy falling to the ground as a red mist blew in the air, Frankie must have seen it to because she heard him yell his name and without even looking at each other they yelled at Angela and Maura to stay and the ran to their little brother.
"Oh my god Frankie, its gonna be okay!" she check him out and found the source of the bleeding, a bullet wound to the shoulder.
"Jane, Frankie I'm fine it's a flesh wound he said sitting up."
"Well it won't be just a flesh wound if you sit in the shooting range." Frankie helped Jane lift their brother before they saw the wall of gunmen approaching, "Jane we are outnumbered and there are a lot of people who haven't moved. "
"Take him and get him and everyone to safety, ill fend them off."
"I'm not leaving you Jane."
"Just do it Frankie!" She yelled back, Frankie lingered for a moment and gave her a look of disapproval before he ran with Tommy to collect Lydia and TJ.
