Charter ten

Hope you enjoy this chapter. I don't think Charles has been in this story much so this chapter has more about him. Also it has his opinion on what's going on.

First impressions are interesting. The first impression of a person could be very different to what your impression of a person is a week or more later. When Holt first met Grace she seemed… she seemed cheerful. As soon as she found out Rosa was missing she was worried. Rosa is her sister so she obviously would be worried. Charles had never met Grace. He didn't even know she existed until Rosa disappeared. Now Grace was sat on the edge of a bridge. He looked over at Rosa. He could immediately tell that she cared about her sister. Charles remembered the first time he met Rosa. Even though she was Jake's friend he never met her until she joined the precinct.

Boyle was working on a case with Jake. It was a robbery and they were really close to finding the culprit. Someone was breaking into apartments in an apartment building. They found partial prints in one of the apartments so they were waiting to see if there were any matches in the system. At morning briefing earlier that morning Terry had told them a new detective was joining the nine nine. The elevator door opened and a woman walked out. She had dark hair and she wore a leather jacket. She must be the new detective, Charles thought.

"The new detectives here." Charles said. Jake looked over.

"Rosa." Jake said and ran over to her. He hugged her. She immediately glared at him.

"Don't hug me." She growled in his ear.

Jake introduced her. Terry and Rosa walked over to her desk.

"You were in the academy together?" Charles asked.

"Yeah. Been friends since. Haven't talked to her much since I came to the nine nine." Jake said.

"She's pretty." Charles commented.

"No Charles. You can not have a crush on Rosa." Jake said.

"No. I don't have a crush on Rosa... But if I did, would it really be that bad?" Charles asked.

"Yes. You are not Rosa's type." Jake said.

For the next couple of years Charles tried to get Rosa to like him. Everyone told him that Rosa didn't like him but he ignored them. Even a psychic told him. Eventually he met Vivian. Charles moved on from Rosa and they were friends.

Charles watched the squad surround where Grace was. She just sat on the edge of the bridge. Holt stood to the left of Grace with Gina. Terry stood with Charles on the right of Grace. Amy and Jake stood together behind where Grace was. Abigail and Rosa stood in the semi-circle.

"What are you doing?" Abigail asked. Grace stayed frozen.

"Whatever happened...We can help." Rosa said.

"No you can't." Grace whispered through her tears.

Rosa started to walk closer to her sister.

"No. Don't come any closer." Grace shouted turning her head. Charles could see her tear soaked cheeks.

"Why?" Rosa asked.

"He said so." Grace whispered.

"Who said so?" Terry asked.

"Since when do you listen to him?" Abigail said.

"He's right. That man is dead because of me." Grace said.

Charles gasped. He looked at the other surprised faces of the squad. At least he wasn't the only person who was surprised. Only three detectives weren't surprised.

"He was going to kill me. He had a knife to my throat." Jake said.

The rest of the squad remained in stunned silence.

"Please just get down." Rosa said.

That's when Grace stood up on the fence that was on the edge of the bridge.

Grace walked out of her cousin's house and got into her car. The man with the gun followed and sat in the front seat.

"What do you want?" Grace asked as she started to drive away. "Why couldn't you just leave us alone, Dad?"

"Why would I leave my daughters alone?" He answered. Grace glared at him. He smirked before continuing. "The real question is why would you kill my friend?"

Grace stared at him. "He was trying to kill us..."

"He's dead. You murdered him." Grace's father interrupted. "Now I'm going to give you a choice. Choice number one. You know Brooklyn bridge? It's the perfect place for you to jump."

"I'm not going to kill myself." Grace said. He pointed the gun at her.

"Or I kill your sisters... And those friends of Rosa. The ones that were helping you. You will be the only one left." He smiled at her. "It's your choice."

"Grace. Get down. We can help you." Rosa begged. "Please Grace."

Abigail looked at the squad helplessly. "Please do something."

Amy stepped forward. "Grace. We can help you. You didn't have a choice. You had to kill that man. I would have made the same choice. Just get down and we can help you..."

"But he'll kill you. He'll kill you all." Grace said.

"What do you mean? Charles asked.

"He said so." Grace said.

"We'll be fine. We can get police protection. Just get down." Holt said.

Rosa stepped closer to her sister. Grave didn't shout at her this time. Rosa and Abigail walled over to their sister and helped Grace get off the fence. Rosa hugged her.

"Don't do that again." Rosa whispered.

Rosa, Abigail and Grace walked over to the rest of the squad.

"So.. What do we do now?" Jake asked.

This story is near the end now. Probably only a couple of chapters left. If you have any ideas of what they're going to do next then say so in your review. Also the season finale was AMAZING! Thank you to anyone who's following me. If you want or don't want Marcus in the next chapter then say. This chapter has had more of Charles in. If there is a character that you want to be in this story but hasn't been mentioned much or at all then say. Please review!
