Fan Fic 8: Memories

Jimmy: Our childhoods are long past. Sometimes watching Joey grow up I realize how Bad I want to go back to those days. They were the best. Sure, the toys are Better now than they were back then, but my childhood was great.

Young Jimmy playing in the schoolyard. A fire engine goes by. He runs to the fence.

Jimmy: I'm going to be a fireman when I grow up. Sister: Come along Mr. Doherty. Come along. Jimmy: I am going to be a fireman. Just wait.

Alex: You seen Kim yet? Doc: No I haven't. Alex: Wonder where she is

Bosco and Gusler respond to a call from an alley about a person sleeping by the garbage cans.

Bosco: Oh my God! Kim! (radio) 55 David to Central I need a bus on a rush at this Location. Central: Copy that 55 David. EMS is on their way.

Radio: Adam 55-3. Doc: Go ahead. Radio: 55 David needs assistance in an alley on 109th. Doc: 10-4. Alex! You're with me.

(Theme Song)

Bosco: Kim, talk to me! Talk to me. Gusler go wait on that bus! Oh God Kim.

Bosco lays her down and begins CPR because she is not breathing.

Young Kim

Kim: Mom, I don't want to be a dancer anymore. Mom: You don't? Kim: I want to be a cop! Mom: That's a little dangerous don't you think? Kim: I want to drive around with the lights and sirens on all day. Mom: Oh. Doc and Alex rush down the alley.

Doc: Bosco, whatcha got? Bosco: It's Kim. She's not breathing!

Doc and Alex look at each other.

Doc: Let us in there.

Bosco moves away.

Bosco: Dammit! I chased that guy. I should have had him!

Alex: Vitals are low. (looks up) Bosco, you found her in time. Doc: Okay on the count of three let's roll her. Bosco get the backboard. 1, 2, 3

Bosco slides the backboard under her.

Doc: Okay, let's get her on the bus.

They carry Kim to the bus.

Carlos enters the station.

Carlos: Where is everybody?

The trucks had all gone out. Boyd 55-3 was still sitting there.

Carlos: Alex? Kim?

He looks around. They are nowhere in sight. He sits down on the couch in the lounge.

Young Carlos

Carlos: But I like it here. Woman: I'm sorry, but we have to move you to a new home. Carlos: But. Woman: Let's go.

Doc and Alex get to the hospital.

Doc: 28 year old female. Found in respiratory distress. Vitals stable. BP 113/ 75. Beat up pretty bad. Found in an alleyway. No telling how long she was down. She's pregnant.

The doctors and nurses take over. They push Doc and Taylor out of the room. They both stand by the glass to watch them work on Kim.

Young Doc

Doc: He's at the 20, the 10, 5. TOUCHDOWN! Mom: Monty. Time for bed. Doc: Aw mom! Mom: I mean it; you've been staying up too late. Doc: Okay mom.

Alex: Life is so fragile. Doc: Yeah, but she'll be alright. Alex: I hope so. Doc: I better go call Jimmy. Let me know if anything changes.

Doc walks into the lounge to call Jimmy. Alex continues to stand there. Bosco walks in.

Bosco: Any news? Alex: Nothing.

The nurse closes the curtain to perform a rape test.

Alex: Think it was that guy? Bosco: I'm positive.

Young Alex

Alex: Grandpa! Grandpa: There's my little princess. Alex: You smell like smoke. Grandpa: I was out fighting a fire. Where's you brother? Alex: He's inside playing with his cars. Grandpa: Okay. Want a piggyback ride? Alex: Yeah!

The doctor comes out.

Bosco: How is she? Dr. Fields: She should be fine. Bosco: Was she? Dr. Fields: Unfortunately. Alex: The baby? Dr. Fields: It looks like the baby is fine. He hit her in the head a few times. She has some Swelling on her brain. We'll monitor it to see if it goes down. Nice work in The field. Alex: Thanks. Dr. Fields: You can go see her if you like. She's awake. Alex: Thank you doctor.

Alex and Bosco walk into the room.

Alex: Hey. How are you feeling? Kim: I've been better. Alex: I would think. Kim: Thank you. Alex: That's my job. Bosco did most of the work. Bosco: It was nothing. Kim: It was something. I'm here now aren't I? Bosco: Are you up to some questions? Kim: You want to know about the guy.

Bosco nods his head.

Kim: He must have followed me from the house. I kept hearing noises behind me. (thinking back) he tackled me from behind. He held a knife to my throat. He drug me into the alley. And then. (she's crying) Bosco: Kim. I'm going to catch him! I promise you that I am going to catch him.

Alex is holding Kim while she cries. Bosco walks out of the room. Jimmy is coming in.

Jimmy: Bosco. How is she?

Bosco just points to the room. Alex looks up and sees Jimmy.

Jimmy: Kim. Are you alright? Kim: Yeah Jimmy.

Alex gets up and leaves the room. Kim and Jimmy talk. Alex walks out to Bosco.

Alex: It's not your fault. Bosco: What? Alex: It's not your fault.

Young Bosco

Bosco: I'm not letting you hurt mom anymore! Dad: Maurice! I love you, and your brother, and your mom. Now open the window Bosco: Okay dad.

Bosco: It is my fault. It's always been my fault.

He grabs Gusler and they leave.

Bosco gets back to the station

Faith: Bosco. What's wrong? Bosco: He got Kim. Faith: What? Bosco: That son of a bitch got Kim. Faith: When? Is she okay? Bosco: Last night. Yeah, she's fine. I'm going to find him Faith. And when I do.

Davis and Sully walk in.

Davis: He got Kim? Bosco: Yeah. Davis: Whoa. We're going to catch him. I promise you that we are going to catch him. Bosco: He's outsmarting us! He followed her from here! Faith: Wait a minute. He followed her from here? All of his victims are caught out in the 100s. Bosco: And? Faith: I've got an idea. We'll set a trap for him. Bosco: What? Faith: I'll change into civies. You and Gusler will park up on 98th. Sully and Davis on 101st. I'll wear a wire so that you can hear what's going on. We'll pull him into the trap. Sully: That might work. Bosco: No. No. I'm not letting him get you too! Faith: Bosco. I can handle myself. Now let's go get the wire and then get to your Positions.

Young Sully

Mom: John. Dinner's ready. Sully: Coming Ma. Mom: Here you go sweetie. Sully: I'm not your sweetie anymore. I'm a cop! (flashes the toy badge that he was given On a fieldtrip). Mom: Well cops need to eat too you know. Sully: Okay Ma.

Davis: Sully! Sully: What? Davis: Are you ready. Sully: Oh, yeah. I was just thinking. Davis: About what? Sully: My childhood. Davis: Oh.

Faith: Okay guys, I'm headed up to 95th.

Bosco: Got you. We should see you in about 3 minutes Sully: Do you have a tail yet? Faith: Yeah, since about 86th. Bosco: Think it's him? Faith: Yeah. Bosco: Okay, we see you. We'll ease out on your position in a minute. When you get by Sully, we'll pounce. Faith: Okay. I'm at 101st now.

Bosco slowly pulls the cruiser onto the street.

Bosco: Gusler. You ready to do this? Gusler: Yeah.

Sully: We see you. He's getting closer. Faith: Okay.

Bosco: Sully, let's go!

The guy is about 3 feet away from Faith. Bosco and Sully pull up behind and turn on their lights. They jump out of the cars. Guns are drawn. The guy grabs Faith. He pulls the knife.

Guy: Back off. I'll kill her. I swear to God I'll kill her. Bosco: Drop your weapon! Guy: I'll kill her. Faith: You might want to listen to him. Bosco: Drop your weapon! Faith: You really should listen to him. Guy: Shut up!

Faith looks at Bosco. He is sweating. Sully and Davis are watching for a move. Faith flashes them each a look to let them know that she has the situation under control.

Bosco; I'm not going to tell you again jag-off. Drop your weapon.

He grips Faith tighter. She realizes the situation is now or never. She elbows him hard in the ribs. He flinches. The knife falls to the ground. Bosco is on him in no time.

Bosco: You have the right to remain silent.

Faith walks up to him. She flashes her badge. Faith: You've been beaten at your own game. You're going away for a long time.

Bosco throws the guy in the back of the RMP. And he slams the door. The 5 cops stand there.

Sully: You okay? Faith: Yeah, I'm fine. Bosco: Don't ever get an idea like that again. Faith: We caught him didn't we? Sully: Yeah, he won't be hurting anyone for a real long time. Bosco: So who has to do the paperwork on this one? Faith: I will. Bosco: Good.

Young Faith

Mom: You don't touch them! (referring to Faith and her brother) Dad: They're my children. I'll do what ever I damn well please! (he hits Faith's mother) Mom: No! Faith run!

Faith runs out the door. Her brother in tow. They hide down in the boiler room.

Bosco: You sure you're okay? Faith: Yeah. I'm fine. Just thinking. That's all. Bosco: Oh okay. I'm glad that you took him down. Faith: Yeah, I'm gonna ride back with Davis and Sully. Bosco: Okay. See you back at the house.

Young Davis

Mom: NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! (crying into the phone) Davis: Mom. Mom. What's wrong?

Davis's mom runs over to hug him.

Mom: We gotta go to the hospital baby. Davis: Why? Mom: Your dad.

They are at the hospital.

Doctor: I'm sorry. We did all we could. Mom: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! (she collapses in Sully's arms.)

Davis just stands there. Sully looks at him. He too is crying.

Faith: Davis! Davis: (shakes his head) Yeah. Sully: Get in the car. Davis hesitates.

Faith: Davis. What's wrong? Davis: 12 years ago tonight. Faith: What? Davis: It's been 12 years. Faith: Oh my God. That's right. Davis: I was scared that we were going to have to make that call to your kids. Sully: Davis, we can't think about that. Okay? We have a job to do where we risk our Lives each and everyday for the safety of others. It's our job.

They get into the car and head back to the station.

Doc and Alex return to the house.

Lieu: Is Kim alright? I heard what happened. Doc: She should be. Lieu: Good. Glad to hear.

Carlos walks down.

Carlos: Something happened to Kim? Alex: Yeah. She got attacked last night. Carlos: Oh my God! Is she okay? Alex: I think so.

Alex goes up to the bunks. She sits on hers

At Alex's graduation from the fire academy.

Dad: I'm proud of you Alex. Alex: Thanks Daddy. (They hug)

DK walks up.

DK: You okay? Alex: Yeah. I'm fine.

He doesn't know what else to say. He turns around and heads back downstairs.

At Mercy. Kim and Jimmy are in her room.

Jimmy: You okay? Kim: Not really. Jimmy: Want to talk about it? Kim: No. Jimmy: You want me to go get you anything? Kim: No. Just go home and be with Joey please. Jimmy: You sure? Kim: I'm positive. Just go!

Jimmy leaves.

The day that Kim found out she was pregnant with Joey.

Kim: Jimmy, we need to talk. Jimmy: Okay. Kim: I'm pregnant. Jimmy: What? Wait a minute. Aw. Dammit!

Kim is sitting there in her bed. The doctor and nurses check on her periodically. Bosco comes in.

Bosco: Hey. Kim: Hey. Bosco: I'm sorry. Kim: It's not your fault. Bosco: I didn't catch him last night. I had him and I lost him. Kim: Don't worry about it. Bosco: We caught him tonight. Thought you might like to know. Doesn't take away any Of the pain. But maybe you can sleep a little better. Kim: Yeah, I can. Bosco: I hear that you are getting out of here tomorrow. Kim: Yeah. Bosco: Well, I'll catch up to you later. I need to get back.

Bosco is leaving the room.

Kim: Bosco. (he turns) Thank you.

Bosco nods his head and walks out.

Young Bosco

After an argument with his dad

Bosco: You know what! I'm going to be a cop, so I can take filth like you off the streets!

Sully and Davis are out patrolling again. They are traveling in silence. Neither knows exactly what to say to the other.

Young Sully

Sully: Ma. I got accepted into the academy! Mom: That's great John! I'm so proud of you. Sully: I'm going to be a great cop someday. Mom: Yeah, you will.

Their silence is broken by the radio

Central: 55 Charlie Central Davis: 55 Charlie Central: Possible break in 1857 Arthur Davis: 1857 Arthur

They head for the call

Doc and Carlos are on a call. An elderly man who fell down the stairs. They are loading him onto the bus. And ready to head off to Mercy.

Young Doc

Doctor: I'm sorry Monty; your football career is over. Doc: What? Doctor: There's too much damage to that knee. There is no way you can ever return to Full strength. I'm sorry. Doc: But I have nothing.

Carlos: Doc! Doc: Yeah Carlos. Carlos: You want me to drive? Doc: No, I got it.

Faith was sitting at her desk in her office. She was completing the paperwork for the collar. She was sitting there with her coffee. She was thinking again.

Young Faith

Faith: I'm not going to waste my life. Mom: You can't do any better than what I have. Faith: I can! I will! Mom: Go ahead and try. You've always been ungrateful! Soon the shift is over. Everyone is in the locker room changing.

Faith: You all want to go get a beer? Sully: I'm up for that. Davis: Let me get Alex, and then yeah. Bosco: Alright. Faith: Murphey's? Sully: That's fine Faith: Okay, see you there.

Faith and Bosco head out to the bar.

Davis walks to the firehouse to get Alex.

Davis: Faith, Sully, and Bosco want us to join them at Murphey's. Alex: Okay, let's go. I really could use a drink right now. Davis: This about Kim? Alex: Yeah. Davis: There's nothing you could have done. Alex: I know, but I still feel bad.

They get to Murphey's. Faith, Bosco, and Sully have a table in the corner.

Faith: Hey guys!

Alex and Davis sit down at the table with the rest of them. Everyone orders a beer and they sit and talk.

Jimmy and Joey are at his apartment.

Joey: Daddy, where's Mommy? Jimmy: She was in a little accident. She had to stay overnight in the hospital. Joey: Is she coming home tomorrow? Jimmy: I don't know yet. Now, let's get you in bed.

Jimmy tucks Joey in. He sits on the bed with him. Joey falls asleep. Jimmy sits there; the desk light is still on.

(Tom Petty's "Runaway Train" plays in the background)

Jimmy watches Joey.

Kim is in her hospital room. She is thinking about the day that Bobby was killed. She thinks back to how she reacted to the gun to her head. She recalls the horror. She thinks about the day Alex went with her to the cemetery. Then she thinks back to Christmas, and when she told Jimmy she was pregnant again. She thinks about how they really need to tell Joey. She looks at her stomach. She is beginning to show. She thinks about how lucky she is. She fades off into sleep.

Carlos is in his apartment. He grabs a beer and heads to the couch. He's thinking about Kim. She has always been hard on him, but she came through when he needed her the most. He was glad for that. He thought back to Christmas when she and everyone made him feel like part of the family

The crew is still at the bar.

Faith: You ever think that we failed at our lives? Sully: Sometimes, but that's part of life. Faith: Would you change anything? Sully: Not one thing. I'm happy with the way things have turned out. Bosco: Me too. (takes Faith's hand and smiles) Davis: Can't think of anything that I would change about where I'm at right now. I'm Thrilled to have people like you all in my life. Faith: Thanks Davis. I sometimes wonder if I would have been happy doing anything Else. Then I look at my kids, and you all. It wouldn't have been any better. I Wouldn't change one thing. Alex: I sometimes think that my life would have been so much easier if I had done Something other than becoming a firefighter and paramedic. Then I think back To how many lives I've saved. I'm in the best damn job in the world. I wouldn't Change anything.

They continue to talk drinking their beers. It's well into the night, but they don't care.

(The song ends and the scene fades out.)
