Chapter 11

Rating PG 13 or R for violence

Bosco wasn't sure if this guy was serious or not, but he couldn't risk Emily's life. He had to do something to save her.

"Just let Emily go." Bosco said, as he grabbed his gun and stood up. "You don't need to do this."

The man held on Emily tightly.

"I'm doing this for justice."

Bosco looked on the man. "If you need to do this, take me. Don't take her." Bosco said.

The man looked at Bosco. "You won't do. They won't care if I hurt you, but a sweet little girl, they will care. I also need to get the other kid too.They will make sure that her mother goes to jail."

"Don't you dare touch Charlie? Why do you want Faith to go to jail so badly that you would do this?" Bosco asked, trying to reason with the man.

"I don't need to tell you why."

"You have someone that I love in your arms, of course I need to know why. I can help you,"

"Listen to him." Emily pleaded.

"Shut up..." the man yelled. "I'm the one in charge. Do you know it must be fate that you came to me, Emily? Don't make me hurt you."

"What the hell do you think you are doing? You have me tied up." Bosco grinned slightly at Emily and realize how much she was like Faith right now.

"It's your mom that I want. I want her to make sure that she goes to jail."

"Why?" Emily asked. "I know that my mom put a lot of bad people away. Are you one of them, did she put you away and you want her to pay?"

"I want justice..." the man yelled.

"Justice for what?" Emily yelled. The man put his hand on her mouth. "Shut up.. Shut up."

Bosco looked at the man. "Don't do this." he yelled, as he jumped in front of the man, and grabbed a hold of Emily, but before he could do anything, suddenly they all fall onto the ground.

Bosco felt a pain in his shoulder, he had been shot. He didn't care about that right now; he had to make sure that Emily was okay. She looked at him. "B…os..."

The older man grabbed a hold of Emily, and dragged her out of the warehouse. She was screaming. "He's hurt… I can't leave him."

"Emily…." Bosco yelled, as he got up, but before he could do anything, the younger man looked at him. "You aren't going anywhere."

"So have you heard from Bosco lately?" Sully asked Ty as they were still looking for Emily. Ty shakes his head. "He should have got in touch with us by now."

"Maybe he got a lead." Sully replied.

As they were doing the alleyway, someone walked up to them. "You're cops right?" she asked. Ty smiled at Sully. "Yes we are cops. What's wrong?"

"I think I saw a crime happening."

"Okay, tell us what you saw." Sully replied.

"I don't need to tell you my name do I?" the woman asked.

Sully shakes his head. "No, you don't." The woman then explained to them what she saw. "So do you remember the description on the girl being dragged into the van?" Ty asked, afraid that it was Emily.

"I can't remember, but all I remember is that this young cop went in there to help, but he never came out."

Sully sighed. "Could you show us where it is?"

The woman nodded, as they walked towards the warehouse, as they walked inside, both Sully and Ty looked at each other with this shocked look on their faces.

"Bosco." Sully yelled, as he run to his side, and saw him tied to a pole with blood coming out of his shoulder. "55 Charlie, we need an ambulance at the warehouse on 35 Avenue. We have an off- duty officer down."

"I'm fine," Bosco yelled. "I need to save Emily."

Ty looked at Bosco. "You are bleeding. You're not going anywhere."

"You're not the first person to say that to me today." Bosco said. "Please just untie me, so I can find them. I need to save them."

Sully unties Bosco from the pole. But as soon as Bosco stood up, he collapsed onto the floor.

"I…."

Ty looked at Bosco. "You're not fine. You need to get checked out. You were shot." Ty replied, as he and Sully helped him up. "I've been shot before, I'll be fine, this is nothing."

Sully glanced at Bosco. "I know that you like to be tough, but you still need to get checked out."

"I don't care about me. My family is in trouble…"

Bosco suddenly looked at Sully. "I need to make sure that Charlie is okay."

"Charlie is fine. Emily just run away from home."

"Yes she did, but she is in major trouble now. I need you to make sure that Charlie is okay. I can't lose my family. I can't." Bosco yelled, as he walked out of the warehouse.

Carlos and Levine had just arrived, and saw Bosco walking past them. "Bosco, you were shot. You need to get checked out."

"I need to find them."

Levine looked at Bosco. "I can sense that they are going to be just fine."

"I don't want to hear anything about what you sense, there is no way in hell you know what is going to happen. Do you know that Emily has been kidnapped along with Faith? So don't tell me that you can sense everything is going to be fine, because if you could sense anything, you would know that they had been kidnapped, but you didn't, did you?"

Sully and Ty were both shocked at what Bosco had just said.

"Bosco…" Levine replied.

"Don't say that you are sorry. That you sense that they are going to be found. I don't believe anything you have to say, you are crazy, you don't know anything."

Carlos looked at Bosco. "Don't talk to her like that."

"Is anybody going to check me out, or do I need to do it myself?" Bosco yelled. "I don't have time to stand here." Carlos and Levine both checked Bosco out.

"You need to go to the hospital."

Bosco sighed. "Fine… can we go now?" Ty and Sully both looked at Bosco. "We'll meet you at the hospital."

Charlie was sitting in his room, when Fred knocked on the door. "Charlie, I need to talk to you."

"I don't want to talk to you."

Fred walked into the room. "I love you, you are my son, but you have to start respecting my wife."

Charlie glanced at his father. "She doesn't care about me and Emily. She just wants you to think that she does."

"That's not true. She loves both you and Emily. She is very upset about Emily being missing." Charlie laughed. "Yeah right, that is why you didn't call Bosco or the police for three days."

"Don't you dare say his name in my house?" Fred yelled.

"What did he that you hate so much?" Charlie yelled.

"He ruined everything. He destroyed my marriage. Now my kids hate me."

"No dad that is all you. Bosco never once talked bad about you. He could, but he didn't. You just need someone to blame. But what is happening right now is your entire fault not his."

"Don't you talk to your father like that?" Fred's wife said, standing in the doorway. "You are just a brat like your sister. We are going to have a few rules while you are going to be living here."

"I don't care about your rules."

Fred looked at Charlie. "I'm the parent. You listen to me. I'm the only parent that you have left."

"How the hell can you say that? Do you really not care about my mom?" Charlie yelled.

"She will always be your mom, but she is never going to be coming home." Fred replied.

Charlie sighed. "I hate you, dad. I hate more than I thought I ever could."

Charlie grabbed his jacket. "I'm leaving."

"No, you're not." Fred's wife said. "You're staying right here. You are going to learn how to respect me and your father."

"I don't think so." Fred then grabbed a hold of Charlie's arm. "You're my son, and I tell you what to do."

"Let go of me, dad." he yelled, as he run out of the house. Fred runs after him. "Charlie." Charlie turned around. "Just stop it, dad. You don't want me there, just admit it."

" I…" Fred looked at Charlie. "I just want to make this right this time." Charlie laughed. "I really hope that it can happen for you, because it is didn't work for us, did it?"

"Charlie… don't listen to your sister. My wife is a good woman; she will be a good mother to you. I promise you that we can make this work."

"We can't."

Charlie then started to walk away from Fred. "Go back to your perfect family." Fred then just shakes his head and walked away.

Tears fall down Charlie's cheeks. He was so upset that he didn't notice the van stopping in front of him, and a man jumping out and grabbing a hold of him.

The man closed the door, and Charlie was shocked at what he saw. "Emily…" he screamed.

"Let us go..." Charlie yelled. The man then pushed Charlie on the ground. "You both are going to make sure that justice is served. But if your mom goes free, both of you are dead." the man said, as he put ropes over Charlie's hands.

Emily whispered. "Bosco's hurt…. He tried to save me." Charlie sighed. "He would do anything for us, wouldn't he?"

"Yes Charlie, now you are figuring that out."

"Shut up both of you. I need to think about what I need to do next."

" You're going to be fine, you just need to wear a sling for a few days?" the doctor told Bosco. "It wasn't as bad as it looks."

Bosco got up from the bed. "I'm leaving now." he told the doctor.

The doctor shakes his head. "You need to get your sling first."

"I don't have time; I need to save my family." Bosco responded. The doctor looked at Bosco. "Officer Boscorelli, you were shot."

"You just told me that it wasn't bad."

The doctor nodded. "But you still lost some blood; you need to stay here for a bit."

Bosco sighed. "It will be too late then."

"Bosco, just get the sling. " Sully said, walking in the room.

Bosco looked at Sully. "My family is in danger. Did you make sure that Charlie was safe?" he asked.

Sully looked at Bosco. "Fred won't answer the phone."

"Go over there. He's in danger." Bosco yelled. "There is a man who has Faith and Emily and now he is after Charlie."

"Why?" Sully asked.

"I'll go and get the sling." the doctor said, as he left the room.

"I don't know why. He just kept on saying that he wants justice. I tried to save Emily, if anything happens to her because I couldn't save her, I don't know what I would do."

"What do you mean he has Faith?" Sully asked.

"That is what he says, and I believe him. You can check with the jail. You will find out that she's not there."

Sully looked at Bosco. "Are you sure this guy is telling the truth. Maybe Faith is in her jail cell." An officer shakes his head. "Boscorelli is right; Faith isn't in her jail cell. Does that mean you helped her escape?"

"Do you really think I would be here right now if I did?"

Ty walked into the room. "I went over to Fred's; he said that Charlie left the house."

"Damn it." Bosco yelled. "Where is the damn doctor, I need to get out of here now!"

"The damn doctor is here." the doctor said, getting annoyed with Bosco. "You will be out of here in a minute," the doctor said, as he put the sling on.

Bosco then got off the bed, and signed himself out of the hospital.

Sully and Ty looked at Bosco. "Let's us deal with this, we will find them."

"No, I'm the one to do that, they're my family."

They walked out of the hospital, then suddenly Bosco's phone rang. "I have Charlie now. What I need you to do is getting the trial ready. It's going to be in two days. Aren't I nice to give you some time?"

"No judge will do this."

"He is going to have to, if you want Faith's kids to stay alive." the man said.

"How can we do a trial, we need a jury. No lawyer is going to do this." Bosco yelled.

"I'll explain that all to you when you get my instructions at the police station." the man said, as he hung up the phone.

"Damn it…" Bosco yelled, as he throws the phone.

Sully looked at Bosco. "I'm guessing that was him."

"It was. This guy is serious. He wants the trial to begin in two days. No judge is going to do this." Bosco yelled with anger in his voice.

"We will find someway to do this. They are going to be okay."

"I hope you're right." Bosco said, as he looked at Sully and Ty. "Could you drive me to the station?"

They nodded. "Sure."

All Bosco could think about was how he couldn't keep this from happening. If anything happens to Emily, Faith or Charlie, he doesn't know what he would.

Bosco had been waiting at the police station for hours, but there was still no news from the kidnapper. He was getting impatient. Time was running out for them.

"Bosco." Swersky said. "There's a package for you. It's a videotape." Bosco sighed. "Let check it out." he said, with this scared look on his face.

They walked into the conference room, and Swersky put the tape into the VCR and pressed play.

"Officer Boscorelli, hopefully you have already set a trial date for Friday. I want everybody to be there. The witnesses, the lawyers, the jury. There is just one tiny small thing that you need to do."

Bosco paced around the room. "What the hell does he want?"

"I'm sure you are wondering why I'm taking so long to tell you what I need you to do. Well I want you to fire Faith's lawyer and I want you to be her lawyer. You have to make sure that the jury sends her to jail or you know what is going to happen."

Then suddenly there was nothing on the tape.

"What the hell are we going to do?" Swersky said.

"We are going to do exactly what he said."

Emily looked at Charlie on the floor tied up. "Charlie… we are going to get out of his. Bosco will find us, and Mom, wherever she is."

"None of this would have happened if you didn't run away." Charlie replied. Emily laughed at her brother. "They found you and kidnapped you; they would have done the same thing to me." Charlie sighed. "I know, sis. I just needed to blame someone."

"I know you do." Suddenly they heard someone opening the door. "How are my friends doing?" the man asked.

"We're not your friends. You have us tied up."

The man looked at both Emily and Charlie. "You are going to get me the justice."

"What justice?" Emily asked. The man looked at Emily. "Stop asking me that. Just stop it." Emily could see that the man was really upset. "Just untie us, and we can talk about this. We won't escape, right, Charlie? We just want to talk with you."

"Right" Charlie replied.

The man laughed. "You really think that I'm stupid."

"No, I think you are crazy." Emily replied. The man then hit her across the face. "Don't you dare talk to me like this. I was nice to you when I meet you. I listened to all your crap and you repay me by doing this." He walked over to the table and grabbed some duct tape, and placed it over her mouth.

"Don't hurt my sister." The man hit Charlie across the face. "I can do what I want. I have everything planned for you and your family. I'm finally getting justice."

"You're not going to get away with this." Charlie replied. "Uncle Bosco will make sure that you pay for this."

"Uncle Bosco is going to be the one that sends your mother to jail. He won't be making me pay for anything. I will long gone before they find me."

The younger man walked into the room. "Officer Yokas is giving me trouble."

The man grinned. "I'll make sure that she pays for that."

"Don't hurt my mom." Charlie yelled. The man smiled at Charlie. "Your mother is getting what she deserves. Soon she will go to jail for the rest of her life."

"What are you going to do with us then?" Charlie asked.

" You'll be fine as long as your mom goes to jail.The trial is going to last a few weeks, and don't worry you will be part of the trial somehow."

"My mom was going to go to trial anyhow, so why are you doing this?" Charlie asked. The man laughed. "Your mom would have gotten off, they always do. This time I will make sure that this officer goes to prison for the rest of her life."

"Thank you so much for running away from home. Both you and Emily made my job much easier to find me. So you hate living at your father's too?" the man said.

"Don't hurt him." Charlie said, with this scared look on his face. The man laughed. "I don't want your father. Although thinking about it, your father might start to be a problem later on."

Emily was struggling through the bounds. The man walked up to Emily and touched her face. "Don't try and escape. It will only make things harder for you and your family. "

The man then tightens the ropes on Emily's hands. She looked at him in fear. "I need to go and get ready for the trial in a few days. You both are going to need some new outfits. Your mom has to look good for her appearance."

The man looked at Charlie's face. "Don't think that you are going to be going to the courthouse, you are going to be staying right here."

"We will see about that."

The man then ducted taped Charlie's mouth. "Just like your mom aren't you? You both rest up. You have a long few weeks ahead of you." he said, as he closed the door behind him.

The next day,

"Have you got any information about who this guy is?" Bosco asked Ty. Ty shakes his head. "Not yet."

"We need to know what we are up against." An officer walked into the room. "I know that guy." he said, pointing to the videotape that the man sent yesterday.

Bosco turned around with this smile on his face. "I need to know everything you can about this guy."

The officer sat down. "I remember seeing him at the police station a few months ago. His brother was killed by a police officer."

"I'm guessing the officer didn't get arrested or went to jail. So now this guy is using Faith to get what his brother never got, justice." Bosco replied. Bosco stood up and paced around the room. "This is worse than I thought."

"This is your fault,." Fred yelled, as he grabbed a hold of Bosco and punched him in the stomach. " My kids are in danger because of you. This wasn't suppose to happen like this."

Ty pulled Fred off Bosco. " What are you talking about? What was supposed to happen?" Fred looked at Bosco. " You are the reason this happened."

"Tell me what happened." Ty replied.

"I…."

"Just spit it out. What did you do now, Fred?" Bosco yelled with this anger in his voice.

"It happened a week ago; this guy asked me if I was the ex-husband of that cop who is in jail for killing that man. I was shocked someone asked me that, but I didn't think anything of it. So I said yes. He started to ask me questions about how I felt."

" What you told him to kidnapped Faith and your kids so he could get justice."

"No, I just said that I hope she gets what she deserves. Then he started to ask me about my kids." Bosco grabbed Fred and pushed him against the wall. "You didn't think that there was something strange about that. First you don't tell me when Emily goes missing and now I find out that you just told a kidnapper where to get your kids."

"I just thought he was a reporter and wanted to do a story about what is like for me dealing with this. I never thought that this would happen. I would never do anything that would hurt my kids."

"But you did." Bosco responded. "I want you out of here."

"I can help you find my kids. I can get him to meet me." Bosco shakes his head. "I want you to do nothing. You did enough already. How do we know that you aren't working this guy. Just go back to your new family and I'll deal with this. If anything happens to those kids and Faith, I'm going to hold your responsibility for this, you hear me."

"Bosco." Ty replied.

"I'm just telling Fred…" but before he could say anything more, Ty stopped him. " Just let Mr. Yokas go before you say anything that you would regret."

"Mr. Yokas, go and talk with the detectives and you will have to do a statement about what the guy told you." Fred nodded, as he walked out of the room.

Fred was walking out of the police station, when suddenly a man came up to Fred. "So you decided to tell them what you know about me. Well let me show you something," the man said, as he opened the van. Fred's wife and his daughter were tied up.

"So who are you going to chose? Are you going to save your new family or your old one?

To be continued.
