"So Yokas, Officer Boscorelli, I thought he was once your partner why did
I feel tension between you two?"
"Well since he went to Anti-Crime, our relationship has been a little off
that's all, no big deal."
"Really!! Because I couldn't help but sense that it goes a little deeper
than that and I have a sneaking suspicion that Cruz is part of it, am I
right?" Reme asked.
"Yeah I guess," she said in a low tone. Reme saw Yokas face and backed
off, she would make sure to drop her off last so they could talk.
"Okay who's first" Reme asked.
"That would be me Ma'am" Gussler said.
"Please do not call me ma'am, God I'm not much older then you Gussler,
please call me Reme."
"Sorry, I tend to do that.okay Reme." He proceeded to tell where he
lived. Next would be Sullivan.
"So Davis, where to?" Davis told her where it was.
When they had dropped him, Yokas jumped into the front seat and told Reme
where to go.
"Look, I know you want to talk to me so go ahead."
"Very perceptive Yokas. Why is there a problem with you two?"
"Is it because you know she's dirty and he's in over his head?"
Yokas eyes widened. "Yeah.damn you're good"
"Yeah well that's why I get paid the big bucks, no but seriously.look I
make it my place to know everything and anything about the people I would
be working with. And I read your files and talked to your bosses, you guys
are good cops and I got the distinct impression from talking to your bosses
especially Swersky that you were like best friends. Look Faith, I'm going
to be honest with you, I know about Cruz, I know a lot of people and I mean
a lot. I'm also hear for well to grant you your wish."
Yokas froze and just stared at her.
How could she have known? Yes this was exactly what she wanted Cruz to be
exposed but how could she have possibly have known.
"How.How did you know? I never." Yokas barely got out.
"Like I said I'm good, real good and I can read people and well let's just
say Cruz is going to get everything she deserves!!!"
"How?" Yokas asked.
"You're going to have to trust me and I know that's going to hard but the
less you know the better off you are, okay"
Yokas nodded. "Okay, I just don't want Bosco to get hurt you know. She's
evil and she's using him."
" I know, look please trust me, I won't let him get hurt. It was never his
fault and he shouldn't have to suffer but I know he is so I'm here to make
it stop."
Faith looked again at Reme and said "Who are you and who sent you because I
swear to God everything you've just said .well it's everything I've been
trying to make him understand."
"I'm exactly who I said I was but yes if you're wondering is there
something else involved, I can't lie, yes there is but like I said you're
going to have to trust me and I will not let anyone get hurt well except
maybe for Cruz and especially not Bosco, Okay"
"Yeah!", just as she said this they came to her home.
"Listen Reme thanks for the ride." "
No problem and Yokas my friends call me Dakota." With a wink she left.
Yokas stood there for a sec and let out a big breathe like the weight of the world was finally off her. "Finally, the game is about to change and Cruz is going down, Yes!!!" and went in.
The next day the roll call room was full. Everyone was there all department heads and Third watch. Swersky got up to the podium and got everyone's attention and began. "As you all know yesterday two mutilated bodies were discovered in an industrial building on Lex. Because of the severity of the crime and the fact that there have been others like them the FBI has come in to lead the investigation, with that said I will give it over to Assistant Director Davenport." Where was Reme? Yokas, Sully, and Davis thought. "Thank you Lt. Swersky. I will be debriefing all of you until the Deputy Director gets here" As he began to talk, Bosco began to think about agent Reme. Just then Reme walked in and Yokas, Davis and Sully's faces lit up and stared at Cruz who looked confused. "Oh, Deputy director Reme has arrived she'll continue." Cruz looked pale, all the color from her face was gone literally drained from her face. "Oh shit!", she mumbled to herself. Yokas, Davis and Sully all let out a laugh. Reme looked at Cruz with a malevolent smile and winked at Yokas, Sully and Davis. She turned to face the room and caught Bosco's eye. He stared at her wide eyed and thought, "Shit she's the boss!" but then not being able to help himself smiled at her and she looked at him then away and began to speak. "Thank you Davenport" And continued where he left off.
"Well with all that said, I'll give it back to you're Lt." The Lt. proceeded to do the usual roll call procedure and ended it with " Keep your eyes and ears open and be careful out there" They all began to file out but before Cruz left and still quite a bit of people in the room, Reme belted out "Sgnt. Cruz, I hope my speech wasn't to much trouble for you to handle cause I did use a lot of big words and you should be happy to know that I never put my head up my ass because if I did then I would just be you. And if you don't listen to everything I tell you to do and report everything that you know and follow my orders to the T, I promise you I'll drop you like shit from a dog's ass! Reme looked coarsely at Cruz who just stood there frozen with embarrassment and fear because Reme got right in her face and the last part was whispered just so that only she and Cruz knew what she said. "Is that understood Cruz?", Reme backed away and awaited an answer. Yokas, Davis, Sully and Bosco stood there and watched all of it unfold in front of them and enjoying every minute. "Well I'm waiting Cruz?" Reme said. "Yes Deputy Director I understand, ma'am" "Good now get the hell out here." Cruz left and glared at Bosco and the others on the way out who all had huge grins on their faces, especially Faith who couldn't help but let out a laugh when Cruz walked out the door which caused Cruz to look back and glare at her but Yokas didn't care she just witnessed the beginning of Cruz's downfall and she was loving every minute of it. "Hey guys can you stay back for a minute?" Reme said, " That means you too Boscorelli." Who quickly glanced at her and questioned himself as to why. Once they were all alone, Davis said "Oh my God, Reme you are vicious that was total perfection did you see her face?" As he said laughing and slapping Reme's hand. "Yeah, I gotta admit Reme that was classic, we all thought that it wasn't going to happen when your assistant began the debriefing and I gotta admit I was a little disappointed but then I saw you come in and I looked directly at Cruz and I know that it was about to get ugly." "Dakota you are awesome," Faith said in between laughs. "Thanks I try . Look I'm going to heading over to the murder scene when it gets dark, I have a special team flying in from Washington to go over the scene I want you guys there, okay." "Yeah okay, why?" "Like I said from the start I want your input on this" "Sure okay we'll be there but what kinda of team I though CSI was on it?"
"They are but I have a special team that I work with that has equipment that well way surpasses the stuff CSI has and I have a hunch and one of my guys well it's his specialty" "Okay" Sully said. "Well I know you guys gotta go so I'll see there around 7:30." "Okay Bye" they all said and Bosco just stood there quiet the whole time not understanding why he was here. But he didn't care, she was there and she wanted to talk to him. When they all left she turned to him and stood right in front of him and looked at him for a couple of seconds which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Are you an ass?" She asked him "Excuse me!" he said gruffly. "You heard me I'm standing right in front of you and I know I said it clear enough for you to hear unless you don't understand English so good? " I understand just fine but where they hell do you get off callin' me an ass!" "Well I'll call it as I see it and what I've seen of you and heard so far, I might add, is that you're acting like an ass?" "What the fuck, I don't have to take this shit from you!" Bosco yelled and began to walk out. Reme replied keeping an even level " Yes you do and you will, now I suggest you get back here and resume your last position or I will have you fired, understand!" And she was serious as she pointed in front of her not once loosing her composure. He knew she wasn't joking and came back and stood there and looked at the floor. "Look at me!!" she said. He did. "Bosco, you have such potential why are you throwing it all away.. for her?" He looked surprised at what he just heard. "What the hell do you care, I don't even know you. You come in here and think you can talk to me like I'm a jag off but." Before he could finish Reme got right into his face and he stopped and just looked at her, her lips then her. "Oh god this woman made him very nervous but oh god how he wanted her!!" Bosco silently yearned. Reme looked into his eyes and saw his soul crying out to her. She wanted so bad to kiss him but knew she couldn't. She leaned into him like she was about to kiss him. Bosco not knowing what to do closed his eyes and anticipated her kiss, longed for it. But instead she whispered in his ear, "I want to teach you cause I know you want to learn, let me teach you" And backed away. Bosco opened his eyes and looked at her into her deep green eyes and saw something he wasn't sure what but god there was something familiar about her. "Why.why do you want to teach me, why do you care?" He couldn't help but ask. "Because I see you for who you really are and I know that this isn't you, so I'm here if you want it. I can teach you things that Cruz never even knew existed. Just say the word." Reme replied. Bosco just stood there and stared at her.
They were interrupted by the door opening "Boscerelli!" It was Cruz and she was told he was in the roll call room but had no idea it was with her. "Shit" she thought, "Um sorry to interrupt Deputy Director Reme but Officer Boscerelli has a job to do." Not once taking his eyes off him, she responded to Cruz, "Actually Sgnt. There is no excuse for you and Boscorelli is going to be with me today, isn't that right Bosco?" She said with a mischievous smile. His heart just dropped into his stomach. "Oh my God what the fuck am I gonna do!!?", Cruz would kill him if he didn't go but even before he had time to rationalize with himself, he heard himself say, "Yes that's right Deputy Director Reme" and looked over at Cruz. Reme finally took her eyes off Bosco and looked at Cruz who looked like she was about to loose it and walked up to her and said, "Well is that it Sgnt.? Cause me and Bosco here have things that we need to get done." Cruz took a step back from Reme and thought to herself, "Fuck she's good!" "Yes ma'am, sorry to interrupt" And walked out silently cursing to herself and promised herself that Bosco would pay for that.
"Why did you say that?" Bosco asked Reme sheepishly. "Because I knew that's what you wanted." She replied. "How did you know that's what I wanted?" "It wasn't?" Reme asked with a sarcastic tone. She knew the answer to that question but she was having to much fun. He looked at her at, those eyes, those deep piercing green eyes and replied, "No that's what I wanted." At that moment Reme felt compelled to soften her image and show a little of her soft side to Bosco. She put her hand on the side of his face and looked at him and leaned into him and said softly , "I don't bite well unless the occasion calls for it" And smiled at him and brushed her hand along the side of his face. He looked at her and took her hand and said playfully, "What kind of occasions?" They both smiled and stared at each other and him not letting go of her hand and her not pulling away. Bosco couldn't help but feel something he wasn't sure what it was but with Reme he felt things he's never felt before. Reme knew she was in trouble, she wasn't pulling away, and part of her wanted to so badly but the other part struggled to hold on. "Well are you ready ?" Reme asked Bosco pulling away from him gently. "Yeah, what are we going to do?" "We're heading over to my office then to the airport to pick up my team."
They headed out, just as they were about to leave Reme turned to Bosco and said "I have something to do real quick, here are the keys to the truck it's the one that has 'Boss' on the license plate." "Start her up, I'll meet you" "Sure, is everythin' okay?" "Everything is fine, I'll be right back." She headed up the stairs making sure Bosco left and proceeded to head up to Anti-crime to see if Cruz was there and as luck would have it she was. "God, must love me" Dakota thought. "Cruz, we need to talk now alone so if everyone would please excuse us, it will only take a moment I assure you." Reme smiled at the three officers still there as they nodded and walked out. Reme close the doors and walked directly up to Cruz and backed her straight up into the wall and said with raw hatred, "If I find out that you do anything to Bosco, Yokas, Sullivan or Davis, I swear Cruz you have no idea the wraith I can bring down on you, you don't want to fight me because YOU WILL NOT WIN, you have no idea who I am or what I'm capable of so do not push me...You know what, for that matter push me cause I would love to take you down, so please give me a reason.!" Reme glared at Cruz who stood there like a deer in headlights. All Cruz could do was nod and with that Reme turned and headed for the door. Before closing the door Reme turned and said, " Please give me a reason, I dare you!!" And smiled and walked out. Cruz stood there for what seemed like forever and had no idea what to do. She's never been approached like this before. It's usually the other way around and she was the giver not the receiver and she wasn't sure she knew what do but all that kept repeating in her head was what Reme said and the intensity of which she said it with. Cruz was finally in over head and she was feeling like she was beginning to drown and she hated it.
Yokas stood there for a sec and let out a big breathe like the weight of the world was finally off her. "Finally, the game is about to change and Cruz is going down, Yes!!!" and went in.
The next day the roll call room was full. Everyone was there all department heads and Third watch. Swersky got up to the podium and got everyone's attention and began.
