Frozen By Fear.

Chapter 5.

Colby drove himself and Sergeant Emerson in to Yabbie Creek, parking up when they arrived, Emerson addressing his team.

"We are on the hunt for a man in his 50s. Last seen in this area over a week ago. "

Colby and the other officers nodded, before seperating.

Colby headed in to the alley and switched on his torch. "Sarg, I've found something. " He shone his torch on the item that he'd found. A strand of hair.

"Good work, Thorne. " Emerson said, just as another officer shouted that they'd found something. Emerson inspected the other item. A torn piece of clothing.

Emerson spoke. "Get them analysed "

Arriving back at the station, Colby headed to the evdience locker to store the evidence heading for a cup of tea.

A man, wearing leather gloves sneaks, unseen, in to the locker room, and takes the evidence, shutting the door behind him. Walking out of the station, he smirks, before setting alight the evidence, he knows whose done this and he won't see him go down.

Kyle walks in to the flat after his shift, to see Ricky on the couch, Case on her lap, her phone wedged to her ear. She comes off her phone, but doesn't say anything for a few seconds.

"Rick?" Kyle asks. "You OK?"

Ricky looks at Kyle, her eyes wide, as she spoke. "That was the hospital"

"And?" Kyle asked.

Ricky takes a deep breath. "I'm pregnant, Kyle."

Kyle stares at the older woman in shock, as he watches her shoulders shudder, he wraps an arm around her. "Rick, it's alright, you have options. "

But before he can say anymore, she rushes towards the kitchen sink and throws up, Kyle rubs her back, whispering soothing words to her.
