"We have a 187 down at Americano Street, suspect is head south to Dream Lane. Suspect is armed and intoxicated." Officer Charlie was patrolling Dream Lane, he quickly sped to action. Drifting around the corner where the suspect was, he came to the suspect aiming a shotgun at him and firing. The bleeding officer grabbed his radio, "10-53, man down." The officer fell dead.

Detective Chris Nott and Detective Sara Foot were on scene. Sara was looking at the glass of the cruiser while Chris inspected the body. Meanwhile, Kate Goth and James Stainie were at the original scene. James was a smart man with a history of medical history was looking at the body. The man, who was in his mid-twenties, was shot several times with a shotgun. He had also suffered blunt force trauma post-mortem. The body had been in contact with drugs. James got up and asked Kate if she had seen any signs of drugs.

Captain Jamie Gunnery entered the crime scene. "You might want to talk to the owner of the house. She's outside and has no idea who the vic or suspect is. "B&E to deal drugs and then bang?" asked Jamie. Picking up a shell, Kate picked up a bag and put the shell in. She then left to talk to the family. "We've been at my mother's for the weekend. I have no idea who the dead guy is, so don't ask me." His wife nugded him He then asked to see the picture once again. Kate handed it over to the man who passed it to his wife. "That's Gary!" shouted the wife.

Chris, the supervisor, entered the crime scene. He then noticed the the strand of hair in the doorway. Chris then also found a small shard of glass on the floor, next to the table. Then he examined the table even futher and found tiny grains of white powder. He took samples and then left. He then looked at the grass, where there was a few drops of blood. He then saw a bullet lodged in the ground near it. Getting the laser, he put it in the ground and switched it on. The laser pointed to about shoulder height in a doorway. Going to the door, with armed police officers. Kicking down the door, Chris slowly walked in, unarmed. Chris was usually confident with these types of things, and was usually correct. Chris then asked if anyone was home. A man, mid-thirties, walked down and asked what was wrong. "Hands on your head NOW!" yelled Jamie, who also entered the house, but he was armed.

The man walked down with his hands on his head. "Did you shoot him?" asked Chris, making eye-to-eye contact. The man didn't answer. "Did you?" he repeated. The man then slowly pointed to a drawer and then returned his hand on top of his head. Chris then opened the drawer and found a recently fired gun. Taking it back to ballistics, Chris fired the gun, which matched to the one found in the ground.

"I'm part of the neighbourhood watch program, I shot the guy to stop him," explained the man, who was called Morgan Griffen. "So, Morgan, arrested for shoplifting in '96 then arrested for possestion of drugs and B&E in '01. Not much of a goody two shoes, eh?" asked Chris, who was sort of smiling. "OK, so I changed, big whoop." Jamie walked in and asked Chris to come out. "We have a witness, who manged to take a photo. We're picking up the suspect. Twenty-two year old Dan Wells, previous convicted for drugs, then spent two-years in rehab."

"Tell me who gave you the drugs and I'll shorten your sentence." Dan got up and kicked the chair over. "I got his number on this paper." Dan handed over a small piece of paper to Jamie. "Thought you would." Jamie and Chris both left the room. "So, let's go," said Chris, who got his gun off the side of the cabnit. Chris grabbed his mobile and rang someone. "Who are you calling?" asked Jamie. "Kate'll want to come." Jamie looked uncertain, but then left.

"Oi! Open up, this is the police!" shouted Chris. "We have several armed officers waiting!" shouted Kate. Chris kicked down the door to see several armed men next to a few boxs. They then fired at the officers, who returned fire. Kate then ran into action and started to fire. Chris ran over and fired. Later, all the men were either dead or surrendered. Kate moved towards the last uncuffed man, who layed on the floor. The man jumped up and grabbed Kates gun. He then shot her and ran off, dropping the gun. Kate was left on the floor, with a bullet in her neck.

"Kate!" shouted Chris, who immediatly ran to her aid. Several armed police ran after the shooter while Jamie and Chris stayed. "This is my fault!" shouted Chris, slamming his fists into the floor. Jamie just stood there, making no remark at all. Chris then grabbed his phone. "We have a 10-53! Get an ambulance ASAP!" shouted Jamie. The Chris said the chilling words, "It's too late. She's gone."
