Tamsin was riding the desk at the police station, having been taken off duty because of an altercation with a john. She may or may not have threatened to rip his parts off in front of the chief of police. She didn't think it was too much of a big deal, but these humans, huh?

"Fuck... one more day of this crap." Tamsin said, as the phone rang for the umpteenth time. "Homicide Investigations department, how may I direct your call?"

Silence. Tamsin could hear breathing on the other end of the line. But no response.

"Hello?" She said into the phone, "I can hear you on the other end. Do you have an emergency?"

More breathing. Then a click. Caller was gone. Tamsin removed the phone from her ear and just stared at the phone. This was the 3rd time in the last week that a call like that had come through. She'd asked around to the other desk jockeys about any suspicious calls, but they'd received none.

"Figures I'd be the one to get the crap calls." Tamsin muttered.

It hit her then. She could trace it. She'd be back on as a detective tomorrow, so she technically had the power to do so. She'd wait at the desk to take a couple calls and find out who the mystery caller was.

But as of now it was near 5 O'clock and the Dal was calling her. Maybe a little miss too...

"Ready to go, partner?" Dyson said softly as he slouched against the desk.

"You bet your hairy wolf ass I am." Tamsin joked, grabbing her jacket. "This job blows. It's been years since you or I have had to ride the desk like fresh noobs out of the academy. Madness."

"That'll teach you not to get in trouble anymore, Tamsin." He chuckled. They both walked out of the station heading to Dyson's car.

"Guy had it comin' for doing what he did to that girl." Tamsin sneered, getting into the passenger seat. "That wasn't nearly cruel enough."

"You're not wrong, but we are bound to trust the system, unfortunately." Dyson's sighed. "Y'know the amount of guys I've wanted to rip apart with my bare hands? But I've had to control myself. Even to this day."

"Grandeur of the job, I guess." Tamsin said, looking out the window.

Most of the ride was comfortably quiet, with banter between the two here and there. Dyson seemed in good spirits and Tamsin was smug. She still had so much to do; Get a new truck, find a place of her own, move into said place. Let's face it, she had the money. Oh, did she have it, but actually settling in one place was a challenge in itself. She had a reason to, but then it would be so much harder to run away. And maybe that was a good thing.

Tamsin was lost in her thoughts when a bright light flashed in the corner of her eye.

"What the-" She muttered, springing up to check the side mirror.

Nothing.

"Everything alright?" Dyson said suspiciously.

"Yeah, yeah, just thought I saw something..." Tamsin mumbled.

Dyson eyed her, but parked and stepped out.

Tamsin felt like she was losing it. The phone calls, the weird light. Maybe it was connected. Or maybe she really was going crazy. That wouldn't be too far of a stretch, with all the crap she'd seen in her lives.

All of a sudden, a sharp tap made Tamsin jump.

"Fuck!" She yelled.

Kenzi stood at the passenger door, her hand still raised as if to tap again. Tamsin glared at her and Kenzi flushed, trying to contain her laughter.

The window lowered and Kenzi burst out in laughter.

"Yeah, laugh it up, Kenz." Tamsin said grumpily.

"Oh, c'mon! You should've seen your face! You nearly jumped through the roof!" Kenzi laughed, clutching her stomach. "Oh, Fae, I'm crying!"

Tamsin stepped out of the truck and dusted herself off as Kenzi calmed. She eyed the Valkyrie softly.

"What's got you in a funky mood, T?" She asked quietly. "If you don't mind me asking..."

"Just work things.." Tamsin said, not wanting to worry her pretty little head. "No big deal."

It amazed her how quick the woman could go from laughing like a school girl, to caring like a mother to her child. Of course, that's a little weird considering the fact that Tamsin was falling hard for her, but it happened nonetheless. The valkyrie smiled softly at Kenzi, as if trying to reassure her that she was okay. The woman squinted her eyes at her and pursed her lips for a second.

"Alrighty, Valkyrie." She smiled softly, extending her arm. "Shall we?"

"We shall, m'lady." Tamsin bowed, before taking her arm.

"Oh, you flatter me valiant warrior!" Kenzi flushed, grasping at her chest.

Tamsin smiled and rolled her eyes at that, holding the door to the Dal open. "Get inside, short-stack."


Kenzi sat at the bar waiting for the round of drinks Tamsin ordered for everyone. She looked back at everyone smiling and laughing around the pool table. Dyson made a goofy face and you could tell the alcohol was getting to him some. Bo and Lauren were all over each other as usual and Tamsin smugly made a gagging face. She locked eyes with Kenzi and smiled, winking quickly before looking away.

Her insides lit up like fireworks as she turned back to the bar. Trick smiled at her as if he knew something and maybe it wasn't too hard to tell. She was blushing like a smitten kitten swaddled in a blanket of love.

Kenzi was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't notice the man sitting next to her was staring.

"You are possibly the most beautiful human I've seen in all of my lifetimes." He said, extending his hand. "Deimos. And you are?"

"Kenzi." The woman said, eyeing his hand. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to my friends..."

"Well, how about I buy you a drink sometime?" He reached again.

Kenzi turned around, the pitchers of beer both sloshing in her hand. "How about no? I'm not some easy pick up, dude."

"Oh, come on. What's a little drink to you? I bet you get tons of men asking." He chuckled.

"If you're implying that I'm a whore, I'd take a step back if I were you." Kenzi said, anger filling her bones. Her hands were shaking now, but she gained enough composure to walk away and make it back to the pool table.

She dropped both pitchers onto the side table and sat down in a corner with her arms crossed. Tamsin looked at the girl and walked over to her, knowing something was wrong.

"Did you drink straight from the pitcher or did you trip on your way here?" She joked, taking a seat next to her.

"Bite me, Tamsin." Kenzi huffed.

"Well, I would, but..." She laughed again and Kenzi glared. "What happened back there? Who do I need to beat up?"

"Just some jerk wad. He's sitting at the bar." Kenzi said softly.

Tamsin turned to look and stood up, making her way over.

"Do you usually make it a habit of yours to harass women?" She said gruffly.

"Well," He said, turning her way, "Look at me, don't you think I can? If you're talking about the human over there, you should really teach her some manners. She's making you look bad... Valkyrie."

Tamsin said nothing at that. He knew what she was and it caught her off guard. She didn't know who this guy was, but he's blindsiding her and badmouthing Kenzi. It did wonders to make her angry. She could walk away, but she was half a breath away from drunk and what's a little excitement?

She grabbed the guy by his finely pressed lapels and drug him towards the door. She tossed him to the ground and took that first punch to his pompously chiseled jaw.

"First off," She said, taking another punch. "Kenzi isn't mine, she is her own." Secondly," Another punch. "I don't know who the fuck you are or how you know me," Punch. "But get lost, asshole."

Tamsin stood up and began to walk away when she heard laughter.

"You know," Deimos said, "you have so much fear and anger in your heart. You'd make a great warrior."

"If you think you can bribe me with some money, you're wrong. I'm done working for asshats like you." Tamsin sneered and turned away.

"Fine," He said. "But you'll regret it, Valkyrie."

As she entered the door, a familiar bright light flashed behind her. It was the light from earlier today. And she didn't know why, but her stomach flipped inside. A feeling of dread swept through her, which was ironic with what she could do. But she knew she had to get out of there. Trick could help her with the lore. She needed to be ready. She needed to be able to protect. Something was coming and she needed to be prepared.

She probably looked like a bat out of hell but she moved towards Trick and braced herself against the bar.

"I need sanctuary." Tamsin panted. "Everyone that's not close to us, out now."

"Woah, woah, what's this about?" He said calmly.

"We need to talk. Now." She said, almost as if out of breathe. "Something's coming... something big."
