It was a long day at the SRU for Jules. Since Jessica was at school she was not able to help her with the inventory today. Lucky for her Sam was there to help out with some of it.

"Okay is that enough?" Sam asked

"Yup" Jules replied

Sam looked down and saw that Jules hand's were covered in dry paint.

"You still have santerian blue on your hands. You might want to use it thinner." Sam said

"Yeah well maybe if you left Jess and me some too." Jules said

"I'll bring you some more tonight. Flowers, fun get together night, bottle of thinner, instant romance."

"Yeah let's make sure Jessica is asleep by that time of instant romance."

"Where is Jessica anyway?" Sam asked

"She has a field trip with her social studies class at City Hall. She'll come by after school and help out with some of the stuff here, shadow me in the field, and then the three of us go to my house for a fun night." Jules said and smiled as well as Sam

"Does she have a field trip everyday?"

"No but I think since it's near the end of the year they are starting to do more thing outdoors than inside."

"Okay"

"Oh by the way it's not santerian blue it's santerian sky."

They smiled at each other. At least today was starting out well but later on was going to be a whole different story.

~Flashpoint~

Now everyone was in the gym hanging out waiting for a call to happen or something. In one section Jules and Sam were together talking.

"You think he knows?" Sam asked

"Who?" Jules replied

"Serge, you think he knows?"

Jules smiled and smacked Sam's ear that had paint on it.

"Yes I think he knows. You have blue paint on your ear." Jules said

"Ah man. Well might as well tell him now and get it over with. I'll do it. I don't care." Sam said

"Yeah then what one of us gets transfer to another team? These guys are my family."

"Yeah not just yours. That doesn't mean I don't want to give you and Jessica up."

Jules looked at him with a confused look on her face.

"What do you mean by that?" Jules asked

Just before Sam was about to answer the alarm went off.

"Team One! Hot Call! At Nathan Square! Repeat Hot Call!"

Jules then went into a panic mode.

"That's city hall. Jessica is there with her social studies class" Jules said

"Man for someone is just letting someone shadow you, you seem to know a lot about her." Wordy said

"Yeah what's up with that?" Ed asked

Jules didn't know what to say. Thankfully Greg stepped in.

"Discussion later. Let's get out there and keep the peace." Greg said

After that they were off to city hall. Hopefully Jules will get to Jessica in time.

~Flashpoint~

They just got to city hall to find that there have been people getting shot by a sniper. Jules then saw the Jessica and her class inside the building and went inside. Jessica ran up and hugged Jules.

"I was so worried about you. I thought you might have gotten shot." Jules said

"Nope. We only just got here when the shot started to happen." Jessica said

Jules looked over and saw her class. She ran over to them.

"Okay everyone follow me and an officer will evacuate you to a safe place."

All the kids went to follow the officer then Jules stopped the teacher.

"Yes hi um I'm Jessica guardian. I need to take her with me and hide inside the SRU truck." Jules said

"Yes officer." the teacher said

The teacher ran with the other students and Jules and Jessica went on outside to the truck.

"Hey no way am I staying the truck." Jessica said

"Jessica yes you are. In a situation like this you are. You can help out Spike until this is over." Jules said

"Hey wait-"Jessica started to say

Jules however closed the door shut hard.

"Okay what have we've got?" Jules asked

The team something was up with Jules and Jessica. No way would she go it all out on just one kid. They didn't have time for it though so they would ask later. Now they had to find the sniper before more lives are taken.

~Flashpoint~

They found out who the sniper was an old familiar face to Ed. Ed killed his father long ago. Now they just found him.

"He's on the roof." Ed said

"That was lockdown." Spike said

"Well how did he get in then?" Jessica asked

"Figure out then now Jules and Wordy meet me at South East corner Bay and Queen." Ed ordered

Wordy/Lewis plus Sam/Jules copied that. Now it was time to catch him once and for all.

~Flashpoint~

Both Sam and Jules entered on the roof of Bay and Queen. It looked liked sniper had injured himself but they had to be sure.

"He's not moving." Jules said

"Low and slow." Ed said over the radio

"Copy"

"Did he shoot himself? Any signs of trauma?" Greg asked over the radio

"It's hard to tell." Sam said

"I think we got him." Jules said

Sam and Jules were ready to approach the subject. They charged in.

"POLICE! DROP YOUR WEAPON! HANDS IN THE AIR OR WE WILL SHOOT!" Jules ordered

"SHOW ME YOUR HANDS! SHOW ME YOUR HANDS!" Sam ordered

Sam pulled the covers off and it was a decoy under there.

"It's a decoy." Sam said

They knew they fell into a trap. They started to check around to see where he is.

"Where is he?" Jules asked

"It's a decoy. Fall back! Fall back now! Take cover!" Ed ordered over the radio

It was too late they heard a gun go off and Jules was shot. Everyone heard the shot and took cover. Jessica heard the shot and she had a heart attack. She knew something was wrong. Sam ran towards Jules.

"Officer down! Officer down! We need a medic up now! Jules has been hit!" Sam said

"Officer down! We need EMS! Bay and Queen! SRU officer down!" Spike ordered

"Jules!" Jessica yelled

Jessica got up and towards the door of the truck but Spike grabbed and stopped her.

"No! I have to get up there!" Jessica yelled

"Spike what's going on?" Greg said over the radio

"Jessica is trying to pull a runner! I have her it's okay." Spike replied

"No it's not Jules' been shot!"

"Listen there's nothing you can do but put yourself in danger!" Spike said

"How are they going to get Sam and Jules down?" Jessica cried

"Jessica calm down and listen to me. Jules would not want you getting shot. We'll get her down safely." Greg said

Then they heard gun shot.

"We're under fire! Get up here now! Somebody get a hit on this guy!" Sam yelled

Jessica thought for minute and they were right. Her mom would not want her to die when they just reunited after all these years. She trusted the team with her life.

"Okay get them down safe but I'm going to the hospital with her. No questions!" Jessica said

"Okay they'll be fine." Greg said

Jessica sat back down and waited till they got everyone back down. Ten minutes later they brought Jules down in a stretcher. Jessica left the truck and enters the ambulance with her but not before looking at the team in a brief stare. The doors closed and then they were out to get the sniper.

~Flashpoint~

Team One arrived at the hospital. They killed the sniper before he could kill Ed. They went towards receptions desk.

"Hi SRU. Where is Julianna Callaghan room?" Greg asked

"Room 213."

"Thank you."

Everyone rushed towards room 213 and found Jules lying in the bed asleep and while Jessica was crying. She looked up for a second and saw the team. She got up and left the room to approach the team.

"What's the word?" Greg asked

"When arriving here she had to be rushed to the OR. She lost a lot of blood and the bullet was stuck in her rib cage. The surgery took 2 hours but they were able to save her. Though she will have to stay here for the next 5 days and will have to be put on bed rest for about a week." Jessica said

Team One was relived that their partner was going to make it. She almost died in the field. Jessica then started crying again. The whole team then came up and hugged Jessica one at a time. Jessica looked around and didn't see Sam.

"Where's Sam?" Jessica asked

"He's on the way. He had to do the paper work." Greg said

Then Greg went into Jules room and did nothing but stare at the horror that nearly happened today. Then Sam came in and saw everyone. Jessica got up and ran up to Sam and hugged him.

"I'm really sorry." Sam said

"I wish I could have done something." Jessica cried

"No. Jules would not have wanted you to get hurt. None of us would for that matter." Sam said

Sam just stared at Jessica for a minute and then went into Jules room. Jessica went towards the window and could hear every word he said.

"Hey Jules. Hey sweetheart. How are you doing? I got here as fast as I could, Jules. I'm so sorry. I should have protected you." Sam said and he started to cry

The doctor approaches the team to give them some advice on what to do for the next week of recovery for Jules.

"You'll need to call her family down. Is there any family that she has?" the doctor asked

"Yeah she has a father and three brothers. It'll be easy for us to call them." Greg replied

"She doesn't have a son or daughter she can call?"

Team One looked at the doctor in confused and shocked way. Then while talking to the doctor Jessica started to walk down the hallway so no one can see her.

"What do you mean son or daughter?"

"While in surgery we notice her pelvis was enlarged which told us that she did have a baby very recent. Maybe even years ago." The doctor said

Jessica was halfway through the hallway until she heard a load yell.

"Jessica. Stay right where you are!" Greg ordered

That didn't stop her though because then she started running down the hall. Sam heard the yelling and came outside. He approached the Greg.

"Boss what's going on?" Sam asked

"We just learned that Jessica is Jules' daughter. Then when we try to get Jessica she ran down the hall." Greg said

"Let me handle this. I know her best." Sam asked

Greg looked at Sam for a moment.

"Okay but be easy on her. Her mother was just shot."

"I know sir."

Sam then ran down the hallway to find Jessica.

~Flashpoint~

Sam looked everywhere. From the cafeteria to the gift shop and there was no Jessica around. He was really scared until he a cry coming from outside. He went out to find Jessica on a bench crying with bottle of Pepsi in her hand. Sam and approached Jessica.

"Pepsi calms me down sometimes but I know that's not why you're here. I knew this day was coming anyway." Jessica said

Sam then sat down next to her and held her hand.

"I'm not mad at you. The others are in a shocked but they are not mad at you either. I kind of figure it out on my own but I never told the others. I just wished you told us that." Sam said

"Then what? You judge my mom by saying she had me when she was a teenager or why she gave me up for adoption and not keeping me? Or better yet about how she can't make smart choices in her life?" Jessica yelled

"No I would never do that to your mother. I love her and you too much. She helped me with my problems. I just wished I could help out with you and her in return."

They both looked at each other.

"She had me when she was eighteen years old. From what I learned from my foster mom she got pregnant from a party she went to after her high school graduation. She has no memory of what happened and she doesn't know who my father was. I guess she couldn't provide me with a stable home so she gave me up for adoption. Then seventeen years later I gone through some of my adoption papers. Even though you can't look at them till you're eighteen I didn't want to wait. I looked on the paper and saw her as my mother. I pulled a few strings and made sure you guys would not know that she was my mother. I was going to tell you guys later but I didn't want you to judge my mom. Today I almost lost her and then you found out the truth all in the same day. Not how I planned it. I'm so sorry I lied to you." Jessica said

Sam then pulled Jessica in for a hug while Jessica cried

"It's okay. It's okay. Everything is going to be okay. The team will be fine with the relationship you and Jules have and we'll figure everything out." Sam said

Then Team One came in and joined the both of them

"Did you hear all that?" Jessica asked

"Yeah we did and I want you know something. We would never judge your mother. She is a great member of this team and means so much to us that we would never judge even though she had you at a young age." Greg said

"You are a great member of this team too. You and your artistic and tech skills really make our team run. You are part of this family now." Ed said

Jessica looked around and she had to admit she had a nice family right her in front of her. She smiled at them and stopped crying.

"Thank you. All of you." Jessica said

"Yeah and besides Lew and I could use another member to hang out with on Friday nights. You can also help out with babycakes and we'll work together on your camera skills." Spike said

"You got that right Spike. Plus I want you to meet my family and our cop friends." Lew said

"You can over to my house to play with the girls to have a little girl night fun." Wordy said

"Clark would want a new friend to hang out with. Also I want you to meet Sophie. Plus we'll help you get a weapon to carry out in the field only." Ed said

"Lastly I'll teach you the ropes of SRU so you can be more prepared." Greg said

Jessica smiled and cried. She had a new family and could go to for anything. Now she was happy where she was.

"Jessica while your mom is in the hospital I want you to stay with me. It'll be best for everyone." Sam said

"Are you sure?" Jessica asked

"Yeah. We'll all be there for you including me." Sam said

Jessica hugged the whole team at once.

"Thank you. This is the really means a lot to me!" Jessica said

"Can't breathe!" the guys said

Jessica let go of everyone and apologized. Now she had a new family at her side. Although she knew she had to meet up with Jules' family when they got here. She could worry about that later though. Later Ed left to go on his family trip. Then everyone left to go home. Jessica knew she was going to deal with some problems in the near future but for now she'll deal with the present problems with Jules and SRU. She'll survive it with everyone at her side.
