Edna's heart was racing and her palms were sweaty. She had a hard time keeping a grip on the phone.
"911, What's your emergency?" The 911 operator said.
"My neighbor, someone's going on in her apartment. I heard a loud thud outside, and then I heard some unusual noises inside her apartment. You have got to hurry, I think something's wrong with her!"
After ending the call with the operator, Edna sat down at the edge of her chair, clinching her fists. She prayed that the police would get to her neighbor in time; that girl has a lot going for her.
Flack raced through the Crime Lab, trying to avoid the constant array of Lab Techs and Detectives. He finally found Danny and Mac and he had to tell them the news that he had been dreading for the past 5 minutes.
"Mac!" Flack yelled at Danny and Mac. "We just got a call from dispatch. There has been a call at Lindsay's apartment. We don't know the details yet, but I think that both of you should head over to her place right now."
Damn! Danny cursed to himself. Why did he leave her alone? Why!
She didn't know how long she had been unconscious, but it was long enough for Vackner to violate her body. She prayed for death for it would mean the end to this pain and torture.
She knew that he was still here, and he was slowly cutting her. A cut here, a cut there was what he was doing. Slowly bleeding her to death. She tried to call out but with the sock in her mouth, that was impossible.
Vackner put down his knife and grabbed her by the hair. He punched her in the face and was going to violate her again but he was so preoccupied with Lindsay, he didn't see Danny Messer standing there with his Glock perched right at his head.
Vackner knew the feel of cold steel and he slowly moved away from Lindsay.
"Keep backing away from her, Vackner. If you're smart, you keep ya mouth shut."
Vackner backed away from Lindsay.
Mac and the rest of the police were camped outside. Danny went in alone which was not the smartest idea but since the 911 report said that the noise was coming from the bathroom, he didn't want the whole police department to see her in this condition.
He held the gun close to him while he managed to get cuffs on Vackner. He wanted to go to Lindsay but he knew that he had to get this scumbag out of her bathroom first.
Once Vackner was in the hands of the NYPD, he went over to Lindsay. Once she saw Danny she lost all control off her emotions. He came over and grabbed a towel on the towel rack and covered her bruised and battered body.
All he could do is hold her. Even though she didn't respond, she knew that her feelings for Danny were perfectly clear. She loved him.
THE END!
