A/N: I'M SORRY, WE'RE BACK ANYWAY!I've been outta action for a while but I'm back at it, just started new fics some time ago to get me up to speed, R and R and let's do this!
Dirty Cops
Jasper State Convention Center
Friday 8:20pm
Humphrey's P.O.V.
Goddamn, I wasn't sure we were even gonna survive such a jump. I have mixed feelings in my chest after so many wolves fell to their deaths, on the contrary I did save more than 600 other wolves besides Kate, Garth, Shakey, Princess, Jerry, Lilly and myself.
"I... I can't believe we were almost in that." Garth said.
"Don't say that Garth, we were just lucky that we were not the one's who didn't make it." I told him.
"But most of us made it Humphrey, thanks to you." Lilly told me, trying to make me feel better.
"But what about the one's that didn't make it?" I asked, looking down from the next building and staring at the rubble below.
"Stop talking as if you were the one who caused the explosion, if no one took the jump, we would've all been there!" She exclaimed.
"Son, she's right you know. An old body like mine definitely would've gotten crushed in there but thanks to you, I get to see another day." An old wolf said to me as he approached me and shook my hand.
"See?" Shakey said. I shook my head then looked down at the street below.
I stood up then walked to the stairs and made my way down to the bottom, even though I was on the 54th floor of the next office building.
'Marcus, without a doubt, caused all of this. Why? If I just go to the proper authorities and call him out, he would easily be exposed! No, it can't be that easy, he's too high profile. This is a bust.' I thought to myself as I made my way down the stairs.
Once I got to the bottom, I was surrounded by flashing lights and loud sirens blaring in the area. Two police officers then approached me: one with light brown fur, and the other in a way darker shade of brown, it was almost black.
"Wait, are you Humphrey... Williams?" The first officer asked me as he raid from the pad. 'Why does he need a pad?'
"Yes sir." I said and almost instantly, I was tackled to the ground by the second one and felt my hands being cuffed by him. 'What the hell, am I being arrested?!' I thought as I tried squirming around.
"Don't even try to resist, your struggle is futile and we have the right to use any available force to bring you in!" The darker wolf said as he pressed his knee harder onto my back.
"You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you under the court of law.
The wolf holding me down then roughly pulled me off from the ground and pushed me to the police cruiser.
"Humphrey?!" Shakey shouted once he and everyone else got to the bottom.
"Stand back, this criminal is guilty of arson massacre." The first wolf said, something about what the wolf said sounding like bullshit.
"He isn't 'guilty' of anything! This wolf was in the building the whole time and saved most of-" One of the surviving wolves began.
"And what about the deceased?" The darker furred wolf asked.
"We all would have been if it wasn't for him." Kate defended me.
"Stop making this harder for ourselves Connor!" The light brown furred whispered to his partner.
"Harrison, I know what I'm doing..." He whispered back.
"What the...?" I asked.
"Quiet!" He shouted at me then pressed me harder against the car.
"Leave him alone!" Garth exclaimed at him.
"Don't... do it Garth!" I tried telling him even though my face was pressed on the side of the car.
"Are you defending the suspect?" Connor asked Garth, threatening him by showing him his second pair of cuffs.
"Maybe I am." Garth boldly stated.
"I am too." Kate added on.
"So am I." Lilly said after Kate.
"You mess with one of us..." Shakey began.
"You mess with all of us!" Princess finished.
1 Hour Later
I never thought that I would end up in a station cell like just like that, with my friends no less.
"I told you to stop it, Garth..." I said to him.
"Then what, we just let you get busted for something you didn't do?" He asked.
"He's right you know." Lilly supported Garth.
"Wow, you're the last wolf I wanna hear that from. I didn't want you guys involved in my problems since the start anyway, I didn't want you to burn with me." I said to her.
"It doesn't matter who takes the hit, if one of us goes down, we drop together." Lilly stated, catching me off guard. Now that's a line I will remember for life.
"Hehe, it's times like this that I wish I was back at school right now. Just 4 weeks ago, we were all living a normal teenage life back in Jasper High. I was just a normal rower until you five came along, but that was a good thing." Garth confessed, making us smile.
"Buulllshit! There's no such thing as a 'normal teenage life' !" Christina said, causing us to burst out in laughter within the cell. It's almost as if we forgot that we were arrested.
"Hey! Quiet in there, I found y'all a pair of new inmates!" Another officer said as he brought in two other wolves.
"Uh, we aren't technically prison so tou can't say inmates." Shakey said to the officer.
"You soon will be." The officer told us.
I took a closer look at the two wolves the police officer brought in.
"Claw? Scar?" I asked.
"Humphrey?!" The exclaimed in unison.
"This is... not where I was expecting to meet you two." Garth said.
"You shouldn't be here." Claw told us.
"Neither should you..." The six of us said at once.
"Fair enough." Scar said with a slight chuckle.
"How did you get in here?" Claw asked me.
"I went to the WCB Awards..."
"You what?!" Scar asked with a suprised, shocked, somehow confused and unexpected tone in her voice.
"Humphrey... what have you done?! Marcus wanted you there in the first place, why do you think there was a bomb in the first place? He set the whole damn thing up! If the bomb didn't kill you, you would get arrested and that worked, he probably bribed the damn cops to get you in!" Claw explained.
"Good thing I'm here to bail you out." Winston said as he stood by the gate.
"Damn, I thought this day would never come that I would be saved by you." Claw said to him.
"Damn right, I used $94,000.00 just to get your stubborn tails out of a cell." He said.
"Humphrey, I told you not to do anything." Winston told me.
"I know, I know." I said as I walked out the cell.
"You know... I don't think having a criminal record is a good thing." I said outloud.
"I'll sort that out." Scar told me with a shrug of her shoulders as if it was no problem.
"By the way, how did you two get busted?"Lilly asked Craig and Serena.
"Eh, let's just say we were in possession of a very illegal weapon." Scar explained sounding a guilty.
"Illegal how?" I asked
"Like 'that gun was kept in Area 51' illegal." Claw explained as we left the police station.
We continued walking to the parking lot and as we approached Winston's 2016 Chevy Silverado Duramax, the two cops from earlier stopped us.
"What are you two doing here?" Garth asked.
"Shut up get back in the cell!" Connor ordered and pointed a pistol at Garth.
I picked up a rock and threw it at his hand, causing him to drop the pistol. Everyone took this opportunity to get to Winston's truck.
I then ran to his partner then he took out abaton.
"Fine then, get close and see what happens." Harrison said before sprinting towards me.
Garth, out of nowhere, tackled him to the ground and took his baton from him then used it to hold him down.
'Where the hell did he learn to do that?' I thought as I watched him takedown the cop.
"Hey! I'm not finished with you yet..." Connor said before spearheading me into the wall.
I saw him slowly take out a knife from his back pocket. 'Oh crap..." I then pushed myself up then kicked him away from me.
Little did I know to my advantage that Winston was backing up waiting for the right moment and rammed Connor in reverse.
"Damn, you alright Humphrey?" Garth asked after knocking out Harrison.
"Yeah, you got easy pickings though, my wolf had a frickin' knife." I told him.
"Anyway let's get out of here."
"Wait, shouldn't we bring those two into the station before we leave?" Lilly asked.
"Eh, we don't know if it was just those two who were corrupt or the whole damn precinct." Winston replied.
"Well... if we do, successfully that is, then this would make our problems less difficult." Shakey said then he got offthe truck.
"Alright then lets take 'em in!" Winston concluded.
12 Minutes Later
"Again... seriously!" Shakey said. We all glared at Lilly because she brought up the idea.
"Geez... sorry." She silently apologized.
After another 20 minutes of silence in the cold cell, one of the station police officers approached our cell (not the ones we fought at least)."Alright, you seven are cleared to go. We dug through the files of two officers's you brought in, apparently they took a bribe from an unknown source." The officer told us before unlocking then opening the gate, letting us out.
"What about Serena and Craig?" Kate asked the officer.
"The two that were caught with an illegal Military Grade weapon? I'm not sure about them." The officer said.
"I initially came to bail these 8 wolves out." Winston told him.
"Alright then, but since the other six were wrongfully arrested, you only need to pay $2,500 for those two." The officer explained, pointing at Scar and Claw.
"Alright fine." Winston grumpily said as he took out the cash from his wallet.
"I can't believe how much money you just carry around in you pocket..." Princess said as Winston gave the money to shocked officers, hell, even I was suprised. There must have been another 12,000 in there.
"A-alrright, you're free to g-go." The police officer stuttered as he opens the gates for the two.
"So what now?" Scar asked.
"We could start by going home because I'm too tired right to do anything but sleep." I said while trying to stay up.
"Were is that house of your's that you told us about?" Claw said. I smirked when he said 'house'. I wanted to to correct him but I couldn't he bothered and just collapsed to the floor.
A/N: I'm sorry for ending this chapter like this and also sorry that the plot is out of wack right now... I'm actually thinking of canceling this story R.I.P TMELIHS.
Happy New Year Readers
PEACE
