Tuesday 7:40
HQ:
The Deacon walks into work and he sees Chris sitting on a bench with her gear already on.
"You're here bright and early" Deacon says
"Hey Deac, I have meeting with Hicks and Hondo in a few minutes. Talk later?" She says, head down, starting to walk away, avoiding Deacon. He is about to say something, when Street enters
"Hi gu-Chris where are you going?" He asks, Chris doesn't respond and leaves. Then Tan and Luca enter
"Icy this morning" Tan says when Chris' out of earshot
"You could say that again" Deacon says, after a few minutes Hondo walks in "what happened with that note yesterday?"
"The note addressed to Chris is a threat, we need to be careful. Chris, Hicks, and I think that this has to do with that RedDot website" He says and the guys start to bombard him with questions "I know as much as you do. Just do your jobs and nothing will happen" then Hicks calls the team to command
"Alright, we are executing a warrant on Mr. Jone Bettle. Just pick him up and search the house for any evidence on the attacks on the women in LA." Hicks says, eyes turn to Chris,
"What?" She asks, looking up and revealing a bruise under her eye
"Alonso? Where did that come from?" Hicks asks
"Just an accident. I don't feel any pain" Chris answers, now Mumford comes into command and sees Chris' eye
"Oh god Alonso! Where you get that eye?" Mumford asks
"Look I'm ok, nothing happened" Chris answers, with those words the team goes on their way to pick up Jone.
Tuesday 8:15
Suspect's House:
At the house, Hondo pairs them up, and Deacon is with Chris. Deacon is happy about this, he never gets to be with Chris so it's a nice change. Him and Chris search the top floor, Street and Hondo the ground floor, Luca and Tan the basement. As they climb the stairs, Deacon spots Jone, he signals to Chris.
"Hands in the air" He shouts, the pair entering, Chris goes to put handcuffs on him when he smacks her in the face making her stagger. Then he takes a taser from his pocket and tases Chris, making her fall from the pain.
"There's more where that came from!" Jone snarls
"Down!" Deacon shouts, tackling Jone to get get the taser away. He is putting on the cuffs when Hondo comes in
"What the hell?" He asks, taking in the scene
"Nothing we couldn't handle, right Deac?" Chris says immediately
"Oh God no, Chris got tased by the suspect" He says "and he threatened that others are going to hurt her" Now, Hondo is on Chris
"Why didn't you say that Chris?" He asks
"Its not a big deal. Let's get him back to base" she says, standing up and starting to search the house
Tuesday 12:30:
HQ:
The team is back at HQ. At Jones' house, the team found illegal guns and plans to attack Central Park. So they rushed to the park and were able to avoid that. After that, the guys tried talk Chris into going home, but she refuses. They walk to Command, when Cole steps in front of Chris.
"Alonso" he says with false cheer "I heard you got tased, did you do something naughty" everyone starts to laugh, Chris' eyes harden.
"At least, unlike you, I did something productive today" she fires back, that must have set off a nerve because Cole shoves her into a wall. Not thinking, Hondo yanks Cole off Chris, dropping Cole on the floor. Then Hicks walks in
"Hondo?" He asks, Cole scrambles to his feet
"He attacked me sir! I was just talking to Chris when he right out attacked-" he starts, but a voice shuts him up
"It's my fault sir, I snapped at him and Cole was clearly not having a good day. I take responsibility for Hondo's actions, Cole's and mine" Chris says
"Alright Alonso, let's go into my office" Hicks says "Hondo, get the suspect into interrogation. Now!" And the two leave
"Always coming to her recuse, good job Sargent" Cole whispers to Hondo once out of Hicks' earshot.
Tuesday 2:00
HQ:
In interrogation, Jone admits he does know about the attacks, but he isn't the main suspect. Jone also says that more is coming Chris' way. Hondo sends his butt to jail and goes to find Chris. He wants to apologize for stepping in, while looking, he runs into Deacon
"Deacon, what happened to Chris?" He asks, Deacon gives a sad smile
"I think you should give Hicks more credit. I heard him yelling at Chris. Hicks said that he knew she was lying back there and wanted to know the truth. Chris didn't say for some reason. I think he knows what Cole did yesterday, anyways, he sent her to Wendy" Deacon says, Hondo then goes to Wendy's office. He is about to knock when he hears Chris
"I'm fine really, it's going to take way more than a few punches to knock me off my feet" Chris says
"Chris, you don't need to put up a front here. Nothing is being recorded or heard in this room" Wendy says patiently
"You want a honest answer, but I can't give it to you. All that does is push me more into a corner. And that threat today? I'm not letting that stop me" Chris says angrily, opening the door and storming away so fast that Hondo has to move back to not get run over. Dr. Wendy walks over to Hondo
"Hi Hondo" she greets "I'm assuming you heard that last part" Hondo nods "Hondo, I can't say too much but she has a lot of her plate. The article, these threats, and this case being very personal to her, that can take a toll on anyone" Wendy leaves, leaving Hondo feeling more stuck than ever.
Tuesday 2:20
HQ:
Chris is waking down the hall thinking, when she see Cole walking towards her.
"Alonso" He says chuckling "did you tattle on me?"
"You think I would go that low? Man, that would make me weaker than you" she replies, his eyes harden
"Watch your step, you might be surprised what happens next" he says, leaving and Street appears
"You o-" he starts, Chris gets he mean well, but she doesn't want to hear
"I'm fine" She snaps, and then the rest of team find the two
"We got a new mission, shooting at an all girls prep school" Hondo says and they go into Black Betty. No one has to say it, but they all know this is from that RedDot website. When they arrive, the team clears most of the school, leaving only the science department to clear
"Chris, your with me on the top floor! Deacon and Luca ground floor, and Tan and Street sweep the rest!" Hondo commands, the pair enter the top floor and see the two shooters, the two aim their guns as the shooters take in the scene.
"Ahh, Metro SWAT" the older of the two says, grinning "and the girl! What luck, ready Tim?" his partner smiles dropping a sound grenade. The sound is deafening and the pair are suddenly tackled to the ground and strong hands go to their throats.
"Chris!" Hondo shouts, trying to wrestle himself free, while the other one is on top of Chris. Chris tries everything she can to get the guy off, but the he is strong. Black dots start to form in the edges of her vision. Chris barely makes out the rest of the team entering while they all try to get the suspects off. They are able to get Hondo free. But it takes another minute, to the point where Chris is can't breathe, to get the suspect off. Hondo, Luca, and Deacon all jump on him, throwing him off. Once he's off, Chris uses all her strength to breathe. They all swarm while Tan and Street rush to her.
"You good Chris? Answer me?" Tan asks, as an answer she coughs and gives a weak smile
"I need an R/A at location. Officer down" Hondo says in the radio
"Hondo" Chris wheezes "I'm... o...k"
"I'm not letting you go that easily. I can see the bruise already" Hondo says in a firm voice. The guys surround Chris, after arresting the suspects
"Come on Chris, since when have you been afraid of EMTs?" Deacon asks sitting next to Chris as she lays on the wall
"I'm... o... o" She tries to say, but it hurts to much to talk. The EMTs check her over and clear her as long she takes it easy. The team are on their way to HQ when Hondo breaks the silence
"Chris? Take the rest of the day off, Hicks' will clear it once he takes a good look at you" he says and that's when Chris reaches her breaking point
"All of you are killing me" she snaps "you realize that you have been acting like a bunch of babysitters ever since the article came out" the guys' face go pink
"Chris, we read the article but that hasn't changed how we see-" Deacon starts
"Deac just stop. This is the exact reason why I never told any of you! Nothing you say is going to change this situation, I'm not leaving unless I'm dead" She snaps, the rest of the ride is silent.
Tuesday 6:00
HQ:
After that mission, nothing happened. Chris walked around by herself and whenever she saw them team, she would turn the other way
"Hey Luca?" Street asks after shift "I'm going to speak with Cole want to come?"
"Sure, just don't do something stupid" Luca says and together they go to find Cole. They find him working out
"Excuse me, Officer Cole?" Street greets "name's Jim Street, but call me Street" reaching out his hand as Cole shakes it
"Hi, I'm Officer Luca. We both wanted to talk to you about Chris" Luca says, Cole smiles evilly
"So she sent two big boys to protect her. That's sweet, listen, my beef with Chris is our business" Cole answers
"It is ruining the chemistry of our team, so it is starting to become ours" Luca says
"Well just leave her alone" Cole argues "this has nothing to do with you"
"So we wouldn't find any reason you would want to beat her up?" Street asks, starting to loose his composure
"No" he states
"Are you sure?" Luca asks "the way she looks suggest otherwise" and Cole is silent
"Did you hurt her yesterday or no?! If you did, you better admit it now before I beat your ass!" He growls, grabbing him, then Luca pulls him back
"Calm down Street" Luca says
"You just made a huge mistake. Chris already has a lot coming at her. Don't make it worse" Cole whispers, walking away
