"Who does she think she is, coming into my precinct and taking over Anti-Crime?" Cruz spat as she paced back and forth in the office of Anti-Crime.

"Well boss, she really didn't take over." Santiago said trying to reassure his boss.

"Great, suck up to her because she's your boss too." Cruz seethed. "I cannot believe the nerve of her."

"All she wants is probably be close to Boscorelli, she does have a right you know. She got head office to bend some rules for her. I think it's great." Santiago said.

"Rebecca Robinson, always bending the rules to get things her way." Cruz paused. "I'm tired of it."

"How do you know her and why are you so angry?" Santiago asked.

"It's a long story. One that I'm not about to pen into a best seller." Cruz returned to the file infront of her, but in the room next to her, Rebecca was revealing her past to Yokas.

"Cruz was never like that back then. She was actually a good cop." Becca said playing with the rim of her paper coffee cup.

"Cruz, a good cop? Those words don't belong together." Yokas said with a laugh.

"Yeah, well it was. Fresh out of the academy and she was my training officer." Rebecca sighed.

"Poor you." Faith said with sarcasm.

"She was transferred to Anti-Crime; rather she wanted there because she was the only female cop, besides me in that precinct. I don't know the entire story, but apparently she did something to piss one of the other officers off and they hated her." Rebecca remembered.

"Story of her life." Yokas said.

"She took me with her, to Anti-Crime. I was the youngest officer to work in that department, pretty good at it took. It was better than doing a beat."

"Isn't anything better than doing the beat?" Yokas asked, Becca nodded.

"We were working on this one case. Kids were dying from overdosing on a bad batch of ecstasy. We had all the dealers, but couldn't get the kingpin. Cruz had this suspicion of who it could be, but there wasn't enough evidence. That's when I got the first glimpse of who she turned out to be- 'Two Bags Cruz'. She said she could feel it that he was the one, but alas no evidence. She manufactured evidence, planted it, crossed her T's and dotted her I's. I confronted it about her, and she went off the deep end. She was tired of seeing the bad guys get away and the good people paying the price. She said she saw it all the time in her community and was tired. She said I didn't understand because I didn't know her community, I came from a prominently wealthy family and handed everything to me on a silver platter."

"Something's don't change huh?" Yokas said with a laugh.

"The last blow came when my brother was arrested." Rebecca sighed loudly, her anger was very visible.

"Your brother? What did he do." She asked.

"He was a cop, in the same precinct. Worked in Narco. He was so proud to be working in that department, took pride in what he did. He got the bad buys in the good way. Cruz came to me one day saying that she has some evidence that my brother was a dirty cop, that stashes of cocaine were missing and the trail pointed to him. I told her she was nuts, but then she said I was only protecting a criminal." Becca paused. "I found out that she made him take the fall for this cop she was dating, who was working with my brother in Narco. He was the dirty cop. She was so in love with him, she made my brother take the fall for his crimes. She cleaned up her trail and no one knew about the truth until her former flame put a 9 mil to his brain and clocked out for the last time. They found a suicide note next to the body, he didn't name Cruz in it, but he said that my brother was innocent. Mention her name to him and watch out."

"I'm sorry." Faith said. "I've seen her dirty work. It can destroy people. What is your brother doing now?"

"He's runs his own business down in Miami. Flooring tile company, makes a pretty good living. He's got celebrity clientele, doing pretty good for himself, trying to put the past behind him. He can never be a cop again because of Cruz." Rebecca paused. "I know more about Maritza Cruz than anyone else knows. But for now, they stay locked away until need be comes."

"It's gonna be kinda hard for you two to get along don't you think, with your history together, won't it?" Faith asked.

"Yeah, but it's going to have to work for now. I can put my differences aside to work, but she can't, so that's going to be a challenge." Becca replied.

"Cruz is a challenge." Yokas said. "Well good luck. I gotta get back to Jelly before he has a fit. Maybe we can go out for drinks sometime, talk about Cruz some more. I know I've got some great stories that can be shared over Cosmos."

"Definitely. I really don't want to face the Crypt Keeper right now. I can't stand her ugly mug."

"You and me both. Good luck with that." Yokas said with a smile.

"Thanks, I need all the luck I can get to work with Cruz." Rebecca said with an unsurely sigh.
