Ah, nothing like fresh air after three months of being cooped up in a hospital room. Yep, Don Flack was ready for the world as he stepped from his apartment, suit snazzy and badge glimmering in the sunlight. He smiled as he inhaled a breath of the air and sighed. Smoke, dust, ozone, and exhaust. Nothing like home sweet home.
" Hey Mister"
Don looked around, finally spotting the little boy staring up at him. " Yeah kid"
" You a cop?" The boy was about, mm, eight and had bright red hair. He was on a bike and his green eyes blinked up at Don.
Don smiled. " Sure am"
The boy glared. " Asshole." He then pedaled away, running over Don's feet.
" HEY!" Don cried, looking after the boy. What the hell was that all about? Muttering to himself he got out his keys, and got into his car.
It wouldn't start. He tried again and again, but the car refused to start. " Damn it.." He got out his cell phone and dialed Mac's number.
Nothing. Frowning and looking at his phone, he saw it'd been smashed. " Oh, come on!" He slammed the steering wheel with his fist and grumbled, getting out and going back up to his house. He stuck the key in the lock, twisted it and…
" FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!" it had broke. He began whimpering a little bit, and turned around, sitting on his steps.
" Hey.. Flack shown up yet?" Lindsay walked up to Danny, who was sitting at his desk reading paperwork.
Danny looked up and frowned. " He was supposed to be here two hours ago"
Lindsay blinked. " Two.. Hours? Do you think he's okay"
Danny shrugged. " I'll try calling him." He pulled out his cell phone and dialed it. " You've Reached Don Flack"
" Voice mail. I'll go check on him." Danny snatched his coat from the rack and flashed Lindsay a smile.
It was raining. Don hated the rain. And here he was, sitting on his front steps and sighing every ten seconds. How worse could it get? His car wouldn't start. His cell phone was broken. He was locked out.
Suddenly, a man stepped up and pulled out a gun. " Put your hands up"
He really needed to watch what he thought.
