Mac and Stella were running. They had gotten separated from the group. Mac came to a stop and looked around. "Oh, I think we're lost," he said, as he turned to look at Stella. "I think we went left while the others went right."
"You think we should turn around and back track or keep going forward?" Stella asked him.
"I don't know," Mac said, as he looked around and then looked at her. "It's up to you."
Stella thought for a moment and hear growls off in the distance behind them. "I think forward sounds good."
"Yeah, I'm thinking that as well...Come on." He then gently took up her arm. "We can only hope that the others are okay."
"Let's hope" Stella agreed.
"So what is the diagnosis doc?" Mandi asks.
Hawkes looked at the bite then looked up at Mandi. "Well I guess you'll live," he said, as he looked up at her, and caught a sight of her badge. "Messer huh." He then looked over at Danny. "Any connection?"
He's my brother." Mandi tells him. "My name is actually Amanda Messer but people just call me Mandi sometimes Manda." she explains to him.
"Hmm," Hawkes muttered, as he looked at the bite. "Seems like you were playing with the same dogs Chris was."
"Yeah, real smart Messer," Chris said, as he glared at her. "Thought you were smarter than your labbie brother."
"Chris Sanchez still the same smart alec street cop I knew." Mandi said with a slick smile. "This what you do on patrol when your not with the PO's" she asked.
"Hmm, very funny, Messer," he said, as he looked down at the wound. "Yep, you got bite as well. You're not any smarter."
"Well a whole lot smarter than you'll ever be, Sanchez." she tells him then turns back to Danny and Flack. "So which way do we go now?" she asked.
"Feisty, isn't she?" Hawkes asked Flack as he looked up at her, grabbing for her arms. "You're not going anywhere until I've cleaned your wound."
"I'm only feisty with certain people." Mandi said eyeing Chris. "Clean my wound with what exactly?"
Hawkes face then went red. "Good point," he said, then he brought out a small water bottle. "This is gonna burn." He washed her wound and then tore a strip of cloth, and wrapped the wound. "Okay, now we can go."
"Great." Amanda said and took one step and she caught her self from falling by grabbing Flack. "shit that hurts."
"Yeah, it will, for a bit," Hawkes said, as he looked up at her. "Flack just keep an eye on her. We need to find Mac and Stella."
"Yeah Flack, keep an eye on me." she said with a smile. She stood back up and leaned on him.
"Oh, great, baby-sitting duties," Flack muttered, as he looked over at Danny who just shot him a chester grin. "Don't you dare start with me Danny. Or I'll shoot you and leave you to those dogs."
"You touch my brother you die." Mandi tells him.
"Yeah plus you'll also have to deal with me." Lindsay says.
"Oh, the love," Flack said, as he looked over at Lindsay. "What are you gonna do to me, Lab Rat?" he teased, as he smirked.
"Trust me I can cause a lot of damage." Lindsay says.
"Hey I like her." Mandi says.
"Oh, don't start, Mandi," Danny groaned, as he looked over at her. "Come on, baby sis. We gotta go find Mac and Stella before they get into trouble."
"How much trouble can they get into?" Flack asked, as he looked down at Mandi. "I mean, it's Mac."
"Stop calling me baby sis I hate that. You have Lindsay go with her. I don't want to move." she told him.
"Fine," Danny said, with a smirk, as he came up to her side. "You can stay and feed the dogs. That way I don't ever have to hear your whining ever again."
"Funny Daniel. I'm not stupid. Besides I can barely walk surely one of you gentlemen can carry me." she told him smiling gleefully.
"You're right, we should leave her for the killer dogs," Flack said, as he looked over at them. "Cause she really is a pain."
"Not cool!" Mandi shouts and pouts.
"Keep your voice down!"
"Come on Flack it's not cool that you and my brother want to leave me here." she tells him.
"Yeah, it is," he said, as he shot Danny a smile. "Cause for once, the lab rat and I are agreeing with each other."
"Oh so your teaming up against me. Because I'm Danny's younger sister and your new partner. Smooth move. You guys wouldn't dream of leaving me hear you like me too much." she told them both.
"We should get going." Lindsay pipes in.
Hawkes then looked over at Danny and Flack. "You can't leave her here," he said.
"Yeah, we know," Danny said, as he and Flack went up to Mandi's side. "Come on, sissy. You hurt us. You're gonna be hurting in a cell. Get the point."
"Yeah I get your point. And you hurt me your going to be hurting in certain places catch my drift?" she asked him.
"Yeah, but Montana will hurt you more," Danny replied, as he caught her arm. "Get my drift?"
"Danny I know you wouldn't hurt me, I was referring to Flack." she told him.
"Yeah, sure," Danny said, as they started to walk down the hallway. "Flack, I feel sorry for you buddy. You have a pig-headed partner."
"Yeah, I know," Flack said, as he looked over at Mandi. His eyes then went over to Hawkes, Lindsay, and Chris. "Just keep and eyes out for the dogs."
"I'm not a pig head I'm just looking out for my own life." Mandi tells him.
"Yeah, sure," Flack said, as they stumbled. "You wanted to shoot the dog."
"The dog was putting my life in danger." Mandi tells him. "So why did you help me if you think I'm a pig head?
"I'm not gonna answer that one," Flack said, as they continued to walk.
