Collision Course
October 13th and Evan came bursting through the doors of the police station, ranting and raving. Gene came over but he was in no mood to be nice, he had an hangover to end all hangovers so he asked what was wrong:
Evan: What's wrong? I'll tell you what's wrong. Arthur Layton has kidnapped Alex!
Gene: You what?
Within ten minutes, Alex as with Gene and Evan in the interview room. Asking about the last time he saw her:
Evan: Well, it was when I left her at school. The strangest thing is that they claim a copper from Manchester picked her up.
Just then Ray came in: I don't think your going to believe this Guv. Reports of a blonde haired manc copper roaming the streets nicking keys to a warehouse on George Street Industrial Park. You'll never guess the name they are using.
In a car somewhere in London, Sam got told by Vic that there was a warehouse where Gene was going to: How do you know Gene is going to be there?
Vic: We arranged it. You know like you was wondering where your warrant card went?
Sam: Yeah..?
Vic: Well, remember when you bumped into that guy yesterday, shortly after we got off the train, well he's got it. That's how I know Gene will be there
Sam: I didn't have it when I got off the train.
Vic: I know, because I took it off you, on the train. I gave it him.
Before they knew it, they was at the warehouse on George Street. When they went in Sam saw Arthur Layton and that was all. It was dark with just a little sunlight shining through the broken windows. Sam just took a deep breath and asked: Who the bloody hell are you?
Arthur: I'm the reason Gene will be here!
Within 15 minutes Gene, Ray, Alex, Chris, Shazz and Viv were all outside. Arthur shouted through the window: GIVE ME GENE HUNT, YOU CAN HAVE ALEX.
Gene shouted back: WHY THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU WANT ME? IT WAS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE YOU BEING RELEASED AGAIN!!
Arthur: I'VE GOT A MEMBER OF YOUR PAST HERE GENE, SOMEONE VERY KEY!! NOW ARE YOU COMING OR NOT??
