1Sara and Nick entered the store. Sara walked up to the cashier.
"Hi. Where's your first aid kits?" She asked him.
"In aisle three. Are you two folks ok?" He asked once he saw the state they were in.
"Yeah." She went and grabbed a first aid kit. She paid for it. "Where's your bathroom?"
"To the right." He pointed. Her and Nick went in there. Nick sat down on the toilet seat.
"Are you ok? You're limping." Nick looked at her worried.
"We jumped out of a moving car Nick. What did you expect us to walk away without any harm done to us?" She grabbed some hydrogen peroxide and put some on a cotten ball. "This is going to sting." She was cleaning all of his wounds. He flinched a couple of times. She bandaged up the cut on his neck.
"I wish I had my phone." Nick said.
"Where is it?" She asked.
"Warrick forgot his at home and since his scene was further than ours and he had a solo, I let him borrow mine. Where's yours?" He winced as she was cleaning the cuts on his forehead.
"Dead. I got a puppy and he chewed through my phone charger." She told him.
"You got a puppy? When? What kind? Why didn't you tell me?" He rushed into questions.
"One, it's just a puppy. It's not like I had a baby." She chuckled. "It's a German Shepherd. I got him a week ago. He's eight months old. I went to the Animal shelter for a case about a dog that might have had evidence on it and when I saw him, I put him on hold and I bought him.
"Wow. That's cool. My dog Maverick was never a problem when it came to wires. Just socks." He grimaced when he remembered all of the socks he had to buy.
"Oh! That's why when you came into work with a hole in your sock! That was funny. Greg made fun of you for a week." She laughed at the memory. "There all done. See? Did it hurt?"
"Yes." She smacked his arm. "Ok ok! Jeeze. No it didn't hurt. Your turn." He cleaned her up. Then they walked out of the bathroom and went to the counter. "Can we use that phone?"
"Sorry. It's for employees only." The guy told them.
"Listen...Chuck. We're cops." She showed him her badge. "We need to make a call."
"Sure. Ok." He quickly agreed and handed her the phone. Nick chuckled.
"I'll call...Warrick." She dialed Warrick's number. Warrick answered but it sounded as if he just woke up.
"Hello?" He tiredly answered.
"Hey Warrick. Were you sleeping?" She asked confused.
"Yes. It's 6 in the morning. My shift ended an hour and a half ago." He said.
"How long were we gone?" She asked Nick who shrugged. "Listen we need a favor. We ran into a little trouble..."
"Are you guys ok? Are you hurt? Where are you?" He quickly rambled on.
"Warrick! We're at a gas station on the I-15. Can you come get us?" She asked.
"Yeah I'll be there in 15." He quickly hung up.
"He's coming." They waited fifteen minutes and then Warrick showed up. They walked to the car.
"Damn. What happened to you guys?" He asked worriedly.
"We'll explain at the lab." Sara told him.
They drove to the lab and once Nick and Sara stepped inside, they felt safe. They headed towards the break room and were getting ready to explain what happened.
