Chapter 25
Spare Her!
A fire had started and Katrina had been electrocuted. Freya went back and dragged her out. She got burned in the process. The other band members helped her and everyone got outside.
"Reid!"
Morgan came running up to me.
"What the hell happened here kid?"
"You're under arrest."
We both looked at Freya. She had the girl in cuffs.
"I'm telling you I tripped!"
"No you didn't!" she looked at me. "I watched you threw your punch all over the amplifier."
"You're being charged with destruction of property and attempted homicide."
"What?!"
"You knew exactly what you were doing when you threw that punch!" Freya snarled.
I'd never heard Freya sound so vicious before. As she struggled with Freya her purse dropped and out fell something very familiar. I smirked and Morgan picked it up.
"And it looks like we can add possession to the charges." he said.
"That's not mine! I don't know where it came from!"
"Yeah, yeah. Save it for a judge or something Miller." Freya said.
She put her in the back of a cop car. A detective I hadn't seen in a long time walked forward.
Freya's POV
"Miss Delavaga? Is that you?"
I turned and looked at detective Stan Gordinski.
"Gordinski."
He shook my hand, but I didn't smile.
"I heard your high school was having a reunion. I thought I'd come by and see if you were there."
I shook my head.
"Por que? To tell me this was an accident again?"
He looked guilty and he felt it too.
"You told me that my brother was a lost cause."
I was glaring at him now I was so angry.
"We arrested Beauford. We found out what he did."
"Oh I know. Derek Morgan is a very good friend of mine. We work on the same team." I snapped.
Spencer came up behind me and put his hands on my shoulders. I looked away from Gordinski and into Spencer's eyes.
"Let the past go Freya." he said.
I sighed and walked away.
"Hey, hey! Delavaga!"
Morgan grabbed my arm.
"Calm down girl."
I just stared at him.
"Calm down!? That pig didn't even bother looking into it. He told me that it was probably an accident. Then he closed the door in my face and left. My brother didn't mean shit to him! Why should I?!"
He let me go and just stared at me.
"I have to go and make sure Katrina is alright. Tell Spencer where I'm going."
"You're not gonna tell him?"
I left without giving an answer. I took a taxi to the hospital and found Katrina. I sighed and the doctor looked up at me.
"Are you Freya Delavaga?"
"Uh…y-yes."
"She's been saying your name."
I walked inside and sat down. Her band was already in there and I felt a little out of place. Katrina had a few bad burns on her body but other than that she looked fine. She smirked when she saw me.
"How'd you get burned Delavaga?"
I smirked.
"Pulling your ass out."
She laughed and then coughed. I sat down on the edge of the bed.
"I owed you." I said.
She shook her head.
"You never owed me a thing kid. I protected you because I like you. You've got a good heart and you know right from wrong. Don't ever let people change that."
She held up her fist and I smiled. I touched it with mine. She smiled again before closing her eyes. The machines in the room started showing her heart had stopped. The doctors came running in and I stepped outside with her band.
"Freya?"
Spencer came running to me. I covered my mouth with my hands and shook my head. Spencer pulled me into his arm and I hid my face in his chest.
"Don't watch Freya. Don't watch." he said.
"Freya?"
I heard Mike's voice but I didn't look up. I didn't want top watch Katrina die.
Oh great goddess, please save her! Spare her!
Mike put his hand on my shoulder and I could feel Dan's presence as well. I prayed and begged the goddess to save Katrina.
"Freya it's alright now. She's alright."
I looked through the window and smiled when I saw Katrina's heart was beating again. I walked to a window and looked up at the stars.
"Gracias." I whispered.
I ran back to Spencer, Mike and Dan. Mike hugged me.
"You always were brave. You went back for Thompson at risk of your own life."
"Mike always told me you were a pure hearted woman. Now that I've seen it with my own eyes I guess I know there really are angels in the world."
I smiled at him and shook my head.
"I'm no angel. I was doing my job. I would've done the same for you and anyone else there." I said.
Spencer was smiling at me and Mike pushed me into his arms. I smiled and he kissed me. When the doctor came out I looked at him.
"She'll be alright Miss Delavaga."
"Agent Delavaga."
"Oh pardon me. She'll be alright."
I nodded and walked back inside. I wrote her a note and left my cell number as well. Spencer took my hand and I smiled.
"Adios Katrina mi amiga."
We left and Mike and Dan came with us. Spencer seemed to like them.
