A/N: Hey. Sorry it took me so long to update again. I meant to within a couple of days of the last update but then I went to see Les Mis and got a little distracted. Nick was very good btw :P They all were but I was really surprised by his voice-it was different but in a good way-a really good way! Lol anyway here's the next chapter. Hope you like it!

BTW Sorry if the layout is weird. It's different than it is on my computer and I can't seem to change it! :PChapter 46


The desk sergeant at Caldwell Police station thought it was his lucky day when the girl of his dreams walked in.
As a teenager he had lusted over the beauty that was Mitchie Torres and wasn't ashamed to say that he was more than a little upset when he heard that she'd married that jerk from the boy band his sister was crazy about.
However that didn't stop him from thinking about her even when she gave up singing to go into medicine she was still his perfect woman and he had dreamed of the day when he would get to meet her and woo her with his charm.
Now the day was finally here and as she made her way towards him, her hair blowing in the breeze, he felt his palms sweating and his pulse thumping as he waited for her to open her mouth and talk to him with that melodic voice he'd fallen in love with when he was 17.

"Where the fuck is my sister?"
Her voice was so harsh and rough that the officer's face instantly fell and any fantasies he had were shattered.
Any witty remarks he had planned for this moment went out the window as he tried to process what she was saying while dealing with the fact that his perfect woman wasn't really that perfect after all.
"Well?" She insisted causing him to sweat even more-this time with a mixture of fear and nerves.
Up close, looking as scary as she did she was a very intimidating woman.
"Err...well erm..." He stuttered, hating how high his voice had become and the fact that he was starting to sweat all over the place. It was almost like being back in high school again when he had tried asking out...
"Hello! Officer..." She paused to try and read his name tag. "Jenkins. I'm sure whatever you were thinking about was very important but right now could you concentrate on your job and tell me where the bloody hell my sister is?"
"Err...well..er."

"JENKINS!"
Officer Jenkins let out a high pitched squeal of surprise as he turned to see his commanding officer, Officer Dawson, standing behind him and he didn't look impressed.
"Y-yes sir." He stuttered addressing the higher ranking officer-after all he was still a rookie and Officer Dawson had been on the force for 14 years.
"I believe this lady asked you a question or has all those hours locked away in the toilets with last years' copy of bridal magazine made you forget?" He raised an eyebrow questioningly and the rookie's face turned deep red and he muttered something about having to go on break before rushing out of the room.
The other officer chuckled humorously to himself as Mitchie watched the scene with confusion.


"My nephew's still a little green so you'll have to excuse him." He explained as he took over in Officer Jenkins' absence.
"That guy was you're nephew?" Mitchie asked incredulously as she looked the older officer up and down, taking in his appearance and good looks. She bit her lip slightly to stop herself from sighing. She always did like a man in uniform.
He coughed a little and she blushed slightly, knowing that she'd been caught staring at him a little too long.
"Sorry it's just you're so and he's so..." She trailed off, not quite sure now to end that sentence without causing offence.

The officer chuckled again and smiled, causing her to blush a little more.
"Don't worry about it I get what you mean. Normally he's not as bad as that it's just..."
He trailed off before leaning a little closer and whispering to her in hushed tones just in case anyone else could hear.
"He has a little bit of a crush on you you see..."
Mitchie shook her head in understanding and sympathy, feeling sorry for the poor guy and resolving to make it up to him later before remembering that she was the focus of bridal magazine a year ago and quickly changing her mind.

"Oh! Ew okay before I go and file a restraining order against your nephew could you please tell me where my sister is?"
"Your sister?" He asked slowly, confusion colouring his voice and causing him to frown as Mitchie let out an exasperated sigh of defeat.
For some reason it was like her sister had suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth. Either that or she was speaking in tongues and no one could understand a single word she meant because from the moment she learned her sister had been dragged off to jail no one seemed to know what the hell she was talking about.
"Yes my sister. About 5 foot 6, purple streaked hair-answers to the name of Casey Torres?"
"Oh I know who she is. I just didn't know she was here..." He tailed off as he began searching the names on the custody list. "Ah yes here she is..."

"Well?"
"Well what?"
"Aren't you going to release her?"
Officer Dawson stared at her in surprise-almost like she had asked him if he was about to release a mass murderer rather than an innocent 19 year old girl.
"Miss Torres-"
"Mrs." Mitchie corrected him.
"Okay Mrs Torres-"
"Actually Mrs Torres is my mother." She corrected him again.
There was something she particularly hated about people getting her name wrong ever since she was a kid and people used to call her Millie.
"I'm Mrs Torres Gray. You know because I was Torres and then I got married and now I'm..oh you don't need to know your nephew's got the pictures he can tell you. You know what just call me Mitchie."

He sighed deeply but conceded. Her whole explanation had been too long winded for him to follow any way and he was just glad that they were finally getting somewhere. After 14 years of nothing much at all this case was getting a little bit too dramatic for him.
"Mitchie. I can't just let your sister go-there's a process, she has to be booked, interviewed, possibly charged. I can't just let her leave because you say so-it's not that simple."
"Of course it is! She did nothing wrong!"
"Yes Mitchie she did, I was there, I saw it. I saw her attack another girl for no reason. I even helped to drag her off the poor girl myself and heard Officer Lighton give her a formal warning to behave-obviously she didn't listen to him."
Unsettled by his honesty, Mitchie faltered for a moment before continuing to plea her sister's innocence.

"Well maybe I should be making a complaint about this Officer Lighton. It's obvious that he has some sort of problem with my sister. Although I don't know why. She's the sweetest person I've ever known."
"Sweet? I'm sorry Mitchie but I was there. I saw her pull that poor girl's hair out with her bare hands. If I wasn't so busy arresting your brother I would have arrested her myself."

Mitchie froze. Any argument she had in her sister's defence forgotten as she heard about her brothers' incarceration.
"Wait. What? You mean my brother's here too?" She shook her head in disbelief.
It was bad enough that they had brought Casey in here for no reason but Kyle too?
"Okay this has gone on long enough! I don't know what kind of grudge you have against my family but it stops now! I want Kyle and Casey realised and any charges made against them dropped or so help me God I'm gonna sue your ass!"
"I can't do that." He tried to tell her calmly but nothing could calm her down not now she had got it in her head that her family was being targeted by the police for no reason.
"Why the hell not? They did nothing wrong! They're good, honest kids not some sort of low life criminals!"

Officer Dawson looked around and saw that they were beginning to draw a crowd in. Not a good thing to do when you were a celebrity in a town swarming with people looking for the latest scoop to sell to the papers.
"Mrs Torres can you please calm down."
"No I won't calm down!" She shouted louder than ever, drawing the attention of a couple of other officers in the corner of the room who turned to watch them curiously. Officer Dawson tried to reason with her again in an attempt to calm her down and stop the situation escalating any further and getting her into trouble later on.
"Argh! What part of this aren't you getting! No I won't shut up and no I won't calm down! You have my brother and sister here for no reason and I want them released right now!"

"Officer Dawson."


Sam Dawson turned around to see two female officers standing behind him and sighed with relief when he saw that one of them was Sienna Marks- the policewoman who'd been there and talked to the victim that morning. Maybe she would have a better chance of getting through to her or at least could back up his version of events the next time she tried to claim they were victimising her family.

"Is there a problem here?" The other policewoman asked, tapping her fingers warningly against her handcuffs as she shot a pointed look at Mitchie before turning her attention back to Officer Dawson.
"No. No problem. I was just explaining to Mrs Torres Gray here about her siblings."
Sienna's eyes widened in recognition of the name not only because of who she was but because of her connection to the current case she and Sam Dawson where working on. Her eyes quickly darted to his telling him that she understood the situation before she turned back to address the officer next to her.
"Err Debs? I think me and Sam have this covered."

Officer Colt's fingers stopped their tapping as she stared at her colleagues for a moment.
"Fine." She finally moved back, not knowing what was going on but sensing that the two of them pretty much had it covered-or were handling it as best as they could at least.
"Only if I was you I'd move this little conversation to another room-somewhere a little more private."
Her eyes darted to the woman standing in front of her. She'd never been the worlds biggest music fan but living and working next to Camp Rock had taught her a little bit about the who's who of the music biz and this girl was definitely one of them.
"You may not be is showbiz any more bit that doesn't meant that it's forgotten about you."


Mitchie's face completely drained of colour.
She'd totally forgotten!
The press and paparazzi crowded here during the summer months when all the big names in the music business would show up at Camp Rock and to snap the first pic of it's latest star. Things were bound to get worse now that those videos had turned up.
People would be rushing here just to find out what trouble they got for the next couple of weeks.

"Oh God!" She rid her face in her hands to try and hide her embarrassment "I've made a complete show of myself haven't I?"
"Well I wouldn't say completely. That guy there isn't-oh wait he is and-hey is that what I think it is? Hey you! No cameras in here!
Officer Colt stormed off towards the other side of the room to confront the man as Sam and Caylyn gently led Mitchie away.

"I think it's best that we continue this conversation somewhere more private."
"I don't know why." Mitchie mumbled but allowed herself to be shown into an interview room by the two officers.
"That guy and everyone in here has already sold their story to whoever will listen.. It'll be all over the news anyway by tomorrow morning so there's not much point in trying to keep it a secret now. Besides there's nothing else to say that hasn't already been said in there so I don't really understand why we need to carry on like this."

The two police officers shared a look similar to that of earlier that morning before sitting down opposite her, neither one quite sure how to go about telling her the truth. After all it was blatantly clear from the way that she had been so quick to defend the action's of her siblings and her complete ignorance to the seriousness of the situation that she had no clue what was going on and neither wanted to be the one to tell her or how she would react to the news.


"Mrs Grey" Sienna began but Mitchie immediately leapt in to correct her.
"Mitchie. Please call me Mitchie."
"Okay Mitchie. What exactly do you know about your siblings being arrested?"
"Nothing"

The police officers stared at her in confusion.
"What do you mean nothing? You must know something or you wouldn't be here."
"All I know is a couple of the kids back at Camp Rock were saying that she had been arrested. At first I didn't believe it but when she didn't show up for her first lesson and no one had seen her I thought I'd better come here and check it out for myself."
"So you have no idea what she's been arrested for?"
"Not a clue."
"Or your brother?"
She shook her head and the two officer's shared a concerned look.

This woman was more in the dark than they thought.

"Look it this going to take long? It's just that I want to get this mess sorted out before my mum finds out and panics over nothing."
"Mitchie I'm sorry to tell you this but this isn't nothing. Your brother and sister are in some serious trouble-Kyle especially."
Mitchie laughed loudly at them, thinking it was all a joke, some elaborate scheme the guys had come up with to get back at her for all the tricks she'd played on them in the past, until she saw they weren't laughing along-in fact they looked very, very concerned.

"Oh come on you expect me to believe that my little brother and sister did something illegal? I mean sure they may not be as angelic as they like me to believe but they've never got as much as a speeding ticket their entire lives! The idea that they would do something worth being locked up over is just ridiculous!"

But still they looked concerned-in fact they looked more serious and worried than they did before at her outburst. Only then did it set in. They'd done something and something deadly serious, so much so that not even she could deny the fact that something was wrong.

"What did they do?" She whispered, her throat suddenly dry at the thought of hearing the horrible things Kyle and Casey had done.
"Are you sure you want to know?"
"Just tell me-before I change my mind."
The two shared another look but continued, knowing it was better to get everything out in the open sooner rather than later.


"Last week I was called to an incident at the main camp site." Sienna began watching Mitchie's face carefully as she explained, noticing how it scrunched up in confusion at her statement.
"Last week?...but that was Camp Fire Jam. Nothing happened that night."
"Mitchie what exactly did you think happened to you brother's car?"
"He crashed it." Mitchie told them in all honesty-after all that was what she had been led to believe. "he wasn't paying attention to where he was going and crashed it into a tree that's all."
"No Mitchie that isn't all. Your brother didn't crash his car- it was vandalised."
"Vandalised? Who would want to wreck my brother's car?"
"He claims that his ex girlfriend did it then stole items belonging to your sister as an act of revenge against him for their break up several months before hand."
"No way!" Mitchie gasped, unable to believe all this had gone on without her even knowing. "Well I hope you caught the bitch and charged her! How dare she?"

Sam and Sienna tried not to wince at her choice of words, knowing that when they finished she would regret them.

"Mitchie the charges against your brother's ex girlfriend were dropped."
"What?" She stared at them incredulously. "This girl smashed up my brother's car and you let her go but arrest him for some stupid little thing. That's bullshit!"
"Mitchie the charges were dropped against your brother because he agreed to drop the matter and to accept payment for the damages. Your brother and sister are here because that wasn't enough for them."
"What do you mean?"
"A couple of days ago I received a phone call saying that your brother had breeched the terms of his restraining order." Officer Dawson took over from Caylyn as he told his part of the story.
"restraining order?" Mitchie couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her brother was a good kid. He didn't do this hat would require someone to get a restraining order against him.
She shook her head in denial, the thought that her brother would do something that bad too much for her to handle.
"No. There must be some kind of mistake."
"No mistake Mrs Gray. Your brother isn't allowed any contact with his ex girlfriend yet there has been various witness statements made stating that he has not only been in contact with her but has threatened her on numerous occasions.
The terms of his restraining order state that he isn't to be within a specified distance of her and must attend all mandatory psychiatric appointments until the court or the victim believe his is no longer a danger to the public."

Danger to the public? Psychiatric appointments? Restraining orders?
All for her little brother who once killed a fly and cried over it for ages? Granted he was only 5 at the time but Mitchie couldn't believe it-not for a moment... but there was something in the police officer's tone of voice, their expressions which stopped her.
They looked so sincere, so genuine and so sympathetic towards her-poor, gullible, naïve Mitchie- that there was no way they could be lying.
The she remembered.

She remembered all those times Kyle would look at Shane with murder in his eyes.
She had just thought that it was his way of looking after her, putting the frighteners on the bad boy pop star who could break his sister's heart so easily but it was more than that. It was such a look of intense hatred-pure and unadulterated that thinking back on it she felt a shiver going down her spine. Shane had tried telling her that her brother was capable of unimaginable things but she wouldn't listen-now it seems like he was right.

Her brother was capable of anything she suddenly realised, she'd just been too blinded by her love for him that she hadn't realised the person he had become.


"Oh God! How could I be so stupid? They've been lying to me all this time! All this time none of them have said a word about anything! They let me believe that everything was okay, that nothing had happened and all this time he's had a restraining order against him! What the hell did he do?"
"We can't tell you that." Officer Marks replied, feeling bad for Mitchie and the situation she was in but was unable to do anything about it. "Technically you have nothing to do with the cause of your siblings' arrest and you aren't connected to this case or the past one so we can't tell you anything."
"Come on you must be able to tell me something! Anything! Please! I think I've been kept in the dark long enough."

Sam and Sienna shared a look, communicating something silently to each other before turning back to face her.
She was right. After everything she'd just learned and the things she'd yet to the least they could do was shed a little light on the situation.
"Alright we can't tell you anything specific but I'm sure we could get away with giving you the basics but whatever happens what we tell you doesn't leave this room. Crimes involving minors are treated very seriously, especially those that your siblings were involved in. If it's found out that we've done this for you there will be serious repercussions for all of us-including you. Do you understand?"
"Completely. I wont say a word." Mitchie promised them, intent on keeping that promise with her last breathe if it meant that she might finally find out the truth.

Sam Dawson opened his mouth to begin then paused.
"Before we begin-are you sure this is what you want? As wrong as it may seem at the moment maybe it was right keeping this a secret from you. This is a huge can on worms you're opening here-it could get ugly."
"My family has been lying to me for God knows how long and my innocent little siblings are criminal masterminds in the making. Things can't get much worse." She stated truthfully only to regret her words when she saw the two of them flinch and share a worried look of concern.
"Or maybe they can." She muttered, her confidence in the whole thing dissolving by the second. But she was determined to finally find out the truth and, fixing a fake smile to her face, leaned towards the officers. "So come on then. Tell me. I'm all ears."

Her fake cheeriness concerned the two of them so much so that Sienna felt so sorry for her that she almost told her that they were wrong that there was nothing they could say just so that she wouldn't get hurt but she couldn't. Something in her gut told her that Mitchie had been left in the dark too long as she deserved to know the truth and it didn't take a genius to realise that Sam was thinking the same thing.

"About a year ago-"

"Say one more word and I'll sue you."
