Something I should have mentioned before, Kerry wasn't killed by the Sun Hill sniper ... which you probably already no.

Andrea sat there, her heart thumping, and her head buzzing, they had him! She didn't no what to do, but when she final snapped out of her trance she also snapped the tape out of the machine. She walked out of the room and ran smack bang into Kerry.

Kerry: Wow!

Andrea: We've got him.

She was smiling at Kerry.

Andrea: We've got him!

She held up the tape, Kerry looked from the tape to Andrea and back again.

Kerry: You mean we've -

Andrea: Yeah, we've got the evidence

They both gabbed each other into a huge and started jumping around on the spot.

Kerry and Andrea found themselves in Superintendent Okaro's office first thing the following morning along with Inspector Gold. There was a knock on the door and all four of them turned to see Neil.

Neil: Sir?

He was confused to see Andrea and Kerry there, but closed the door after him.

Adam: I think you should be present to here this.

He looked from Adam to Andrea.

Neil: What's this about?

Kerry: Sir, there are some things you should no about PC Kent.

And together they explained everything, about the thugs on the Coal Lane, about him having a false ID, when they told them about the birth certificate Gina nearly fainted, but they were careful and made out that Gina and Smithy had nothing to do with it. About how they could link him to the Sun Sun Hill Sniper, Kerry wasn't even sure how at this point, but when Andrea pulled out a newspaper cutting of David Kent and Jason Hardy even she was shocked. Andrea explained how they believed he was the insider who was leaking the Sniper information, she just didn't tell them were she got the cutting from. One of her old friends who still worked at the Daily News, they'd been mates since they grew up in Scotland. And last but not least the rape and when Andrea told them it was Gabriel and she produced the tape, Neil looked like he was going to smack some one at that point. When they had finished they stood in silence while there three supers absorbed this information.

Adam: Well that's eh ... that's very interesting. Eh just one question, how did you find all this out?

Andrea :Were police officers sir, we solve crime it's what we do for a living.

Kerry grinned and Andrea could have sworn she so a quick smile on Neil's face.

Adam: Well if that's it, eh you can go now while we discus this situation.

Both: Sir

They turned to walk out.

Gina: Oh just one more thing, keep this to yourself for the time being we don't want everyone knowing especially PC Kent.

Kerry: Ma'am

Andrea: Ma'am

Becky and Andrea buzzed threw the corridor and into the main office.

Gary: Hey guys!

They both did a double take and walked up to the desk, to find for some reason Gary.

Becky: What you doing behind there, where's Marylin?

Gary: Good question, I only came in here to borrow a stapler, that was twenty minuets ago.

Andrea: Hum

Kerry: Anyone seen Reg?

Kerry had buzzed threw.

Andrea: No, why?

Kerry: Can't find him anywhere and Des is kicking off.

Andrea: What's the nick turning into, the lost and found department

They all laughed.

Becky: Hum, Marilyn's missing ... Reg is missing, hum it makes you think, don't it?

They all laughed.

Andrea: Yeah only you and your sick mind.

Gary: Hey you guys going to this party.

Becky: What party?

Gary: The summer one at the Three Bells.

Andrea: I don't think so not after last years.

Becky: Hum talk about a dynamite of a party, eh.

She nudged Andrea in the side, laughing, a buzzing sound and the sound of Honey out of breath caught there attention. The girls turned and Gary nealed over the desk , towards the main doors.

Honey: Guy's you've got to see this!

Becky: What is it?

The three girls started walking towards her, as Gary buzzed threw behind them

Honey: Something's kicking off up stars with the Supt, DCI and NCS.

Andrea: NCS, What?

Honey: I don't no, but it's got something to do with Gabriel.

Kerry and Andrea looked at each other and they all followed Honey upstairs. They didn't even have to reach the top step to no something was going on. There was a loud commotion coming from inside of CID, and the next thing that happened the double doors flew open and Gabriel was being dragged out of CID, to officers at his side his hands cuffed, followed by the Supt and DCI, threw the doors you could see the shocked look on the CID teams faces. Gabriel stopped struggling when he saw Andrea and Kerry watching him.

Gabriel: Your dead, do you here me!

NCS dragged him down the stairs, but not before his echoed voice carried up the stairs

Gabriel: YOUR DEAD!

Gary, Honey, Kerry, Becky and Andy watched as he was taken out of the building. Andrea turned to look at the Supt who nodded at her. Then walked into CID followed by Jack.

Becky: What the hell was all that about?

Andrea: No idea.

She looked at Kerry, who put her arm on her shoulder.

''MET POLICE SCANDEL''

That was the head line on every paper in Sun Hill the following morning, and by then everyone had learned the truth about 'Gabriel' Kent. The relief were in shock, when the papers named crimes he had apparently committed: Assault, Rape, Perverting the cause of justice ... Murder. The list went on and on. Andrea's rape case was shut, and Kerry's was being investigated. When Smithy found out about what Gabriel had done to Kerry, he flipped, but Kerry had managed to calm him down and wondered why he was so bothered. So things were starting to get back on track and everyone was looking forward to the Sun Hill summer party however, Inspector Gold had a bit of bad news ...

Gina: The Summer party's been canceled.

Everyone: WHAT!

She looked around the briefing room at her relief all of whom looked disappointed and upset.

Roger: Why?

Gina: The Three Bells has had a gas leak and they'd had to close the pub, for a few weeks.

There was the mumbling of voices.

Tony: Well couldn't we have the party her ma'am

Gina: Sorry?

Tony: Well couldn't we have the summer party here instead.

Dan: Yeah I mean we could have it in the canteen there's plenty of space.

There was the murmur of approval from the relief.

Gina: Well I'll speak to the Supt about it, but don't get your hopes up, now postings -

Andrea was flicking threw the TV channels, when the closing of her front door echoed. Knowing who it was, she called out.

Andrea: Hey!

She turned as Neil came in.

Andrea: (half laughed) What's up with you?

He had a look of deep determination on his face which made Andrea want to laugh but she didn't.

Neil: I've been thinking.

He took the TV remote out of her hands and put the TV on mute.

Andrea: About?

Neil: About us.

He sat down next to her. And looked her in the eyes.

Neil: I've been think about everything that's happened to us recently, and it's made me realize that I don't want to go on living a lie.

Andrea frowned at him, what was he saying.

Neil: When I heard about the bomb and the rape, your were the only thing I could think about and for the first time in my life I was scared, scared I was going to loose you.

She felt like she could cry, to hide her tears she bent down and picked up her coffee cup, wiping her tears away, and looked back at him.

Neil: I want to be with you, you all I think about that's why I've come to a decision.

She took a sip form her cup.

Neil: I'm going to leave my wife Andrea ... for you.

Andrea choked into her cup. When she recovered she looked at him, and could tell by the look in his eyes that they were full of love and support and that he was telling the truth. But she didn't say anything.

Only one more chapter to go!
