IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Angela and Maura sat clinging to each other behind a table, waiting for the gunfire to stop but nothing seemed to stop it. They had been so afraid after Tommy was shot but they knew that Frankie got him out. The men drew in closer and they helplessly watched as Jane tried to fight the hidden gun men, something that she was obviously at a disadvantage with. The table that blocked their way swayed as another bullet hit it, another near miss. Were they just sitting ducks, should they just stay there or should they risk it and run to safety like the rest of the party guests? Before they could muster an ounce of courage to run Frankie ran and slid next to them.
"Frankie! how is Tommy," Angela asked instantly tears falling down her face as she shook.
"He is fine mom, it didn't hit anything, they took him to the hospital." He responded half paying attention as he scanned the area, he saw Jane dive behind a tree as a bullet barely missed her, he quickly looked to the two scared women, " When I give you the okay I want you to run, no fighting it mom, do you understand me," he demanded, his mother nodded. Frankie popped above the table and fired a shot to the left of them, "Go!"
The women ran as fast as they could not looking behind them, once they were clear Frankie ran to Jane. "Frankie, what they hell are you doing," she yelled over the sound of gunfire firing off another round.
"You didn't think I was gonna let you have all the fun!" he smirked she couldn't help but smile at his comment. They both emerged from the tree and began shooting again. Suddenly Jane felt a sharp pain in her chest as a bullet struck her vest knocking the wind out of her. "Jane!" Frankie yelled but then the shooting stopped and as more officers ran to them Frankie shook Jane.
"I'm.. Fine!" she gasped as she tried to regain her breath. A Medic ran to the but she waved them off only to have Frankie yell at her. She let Frost and Kosak help her to her feet and she began making her way to the ambulance, "The shooters are gone, from what I can tell there were two or three shooters, we need to get a warrant to search William Drake's old house, it's not been bought, no takers on a place where a murder took place." Jane said wincing in pain.
"We got that Jane, you are going to the hospital though, just a quick once over and also to see how Tommy is doing," Frost said in a tone that Jane knew not to test.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
"It's stupid Tommy you could have been killed!" Jane said as she hit Tommy in his good arm, he had been discharged with a clean bill of health.
"I agree, and he isn't even a police officer!" Angela was coddling, as she always had, it was the nature of their mother. They all sat in the police station café calming their nerves while Frost and Kosak searched through the deceased William Drake's home for any trace of the shooters.
"So you're telling me that Thomas Drake kept his dead sons apartment home in tact," Tommy said trying to change the conversation on him.
"He wasn't dead at the time, he died a week ago and houses are hard to sell in this economy especially ones that had such a heinous crime committed in it." Maura said, he phone rang out and she excused herself to answer with an officer following her.
"Either way that's weird, he was spending life in prison after killing his buddy."
"Yeah well some parents have their reasons." Angela said as she looked to all her children. Just as Jane was about to comment Maura walked in.
"Who was that Maura?" Jane asked
"It was Kosak, Thomas Drake is dead, he hung himself, we have to go release the body so I can do an autopsy." Maura picked up her bag and waved goodbye to everyone, " I have to go grab my kit in autopsy meet you down there." She said to Jane as she said good bye to her family and grabbed a coffee to go.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Frankie sat uneasily in his chair, the best news just came through that it was over but as he watched his sister leave he couldn't help but feel that something was off. And as if on cue Frost called Frankie, "Frankie where are Maura and Jane, I can't reach them," Frost's voice was in a panic.
"They are probably on their way to the parking garage to meet with you, why what's wrong?"
"It's not safe call them back Frankie, it was never Drake he was a deco!" Frankie dropped his coffee and took off like a bullet, but not before telling his family to stay put. He ran to Autopsy his heart pumping as pushed the doors open, to his dismay he found no sign of them. He then sprinted to the garage, hoping to get there in time.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Jane and Maura walked to her car excited that they now could go back to work. The garage was strangely silent and as they walked on the fourth floor, Jane got a strange feeling. At first it was subtle then it grew to an overwhelming feeling as she added up all the facts, Thomas Drake may have been the main guy but there was more than one shooter at the park.
"Maura," Jane began, but before she could finish a dark shadow stepped out in to the opening gun raised and pointed at them. It all happened so quickly she didn't even have time to grab her gun, she heard her and Maura's name being yelled at a distance then a gunshot rang though her ears and a large force knocking not only her but Maura down, it was over. The Figure disappeared, and the Parking garage turned deadly silent.
It took her a minute to pull herself to a sitting position as she checked on Maura who did the same. She was rattled but then everything grew clear as she remembered the familiar voice of her brother calling out her name to warn her.
"Frankie!" She turned to find him laying on the ground face up staring at the ceiling, his eyes focused on the beam overhead as he gasped for air, his chest moved in short rises and falls as air leaked though his lungs. Jane hurried over and gripped his hand immediately flashing her back to the time he was shot twice and almost died, but this was different. This time it wasn't internal bleeding, this time the crimson liquid consumed his sky blue shirt. There was no bullet proof vest, nothing to soften the impact of the large caliber bullet.
"Maura help, call help!" she said as she placed both hands on the gaping wound on her little brother's chest. What where the chances of both brother's shot on the same day, Frankie let out a soft moan as she put on more pressure.
"I'm sorry Frankie I have to stop the bleeding." Maura's panicked tone could be heard in the distance as she called for an ambulance, then feet shuffled in the parking garage as officers ran in response to shots fired.
"Frankie stay with me, you have to keep your eyes open and breath!" His lips where turning a light shade of blue and his breathing grew lighter. Maura raced to them and began to asses Frankie's injury, his eyes showed panic as he tried so hard to let any bit of air re inflate his lungs, the blood was coming fast and in copious amounts giving Jane a churning stomach and complete Terror seized her body. The ambulance could be heard in a distance and a little hope was given back to her.
Frankie looked to his sister and gave her a smile even though he was scared, "I.. Love.. you.. Janie" he said in short gasps.
"I Love you too Frankie but you gotta save your breath okay." He slowly lifted his arm and brought his hand to her face wiping away her tears as if to tell her everything was okay. The ambulance was only a floor down but just as she heard it turn the corner she watched her brother's eyes flutter shut,
"Frankie, wake up!"
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
