Disclaimer: Rookie Blue does not belong to me. I am merely borrowing the characters.

A/N I was going to make this really quick and get Holly's parents arrested but then I googled 'purity crusade' (a name I had made up) and found that I'd stumbled across a really interesting, if depressing, piece of American history.

Next Day, 15th Division.

Holly dropped Gail off.

Gail walked into the detectives office. To her relief Jo was already there.

"Jo, can I ask some advice on something personal?"

"So long as it isn't about lesbian sex, yes!"

"No not about lesbian sex, Holly and manage quite well in that department. You don't know what sex is until.. Oh god I am turning into Holly, using so many words! No! Holly's parents are coming to town. Religious fundamentalists. They want her to go on a 'Purity Crusade' with them for six months. Last time she refused was in Vancouver they picketed her workplace. Followed her around, sat outside her condo. Eventually she fled the city."

"OK, not nice. I take it they don't know about you?"

"No they don't. Is there any way I could make this a legitimate case? Should I contact CMU and HCU?"

"Well you need to find out what this 'Purity Crusade' is first. But if they behave in the way you describe outside the morgue they will be arrested."

"Yeah that's the difficult part – she doesn't want them arrested."

"Well if they picket the morgue they'll be no option."

"True."

"OK first step is the google machine."

Gail put 'Purity Crusade' into google. She found that it appeared to be an attempt to re-create a movement that happened in the latter half of the 19th Century. An attempt at 'moral reform and social control' proposing such policies as prohibition of alcohol, all sex outside of marriage prohibited, a complete ban on homosexuality and birth control. Abortion to be made illegal and charged as murder.

"Shit. These people are crazy! Look at this." Gail beckoned Jo over.

"You're right. But it isn't a criminal offence to campaign for a change in the law."

"But look what happened in Vancouver..." Gail clicked through to a page showing local newspaper reports. Abortion clinics had been picketed, as had pharmacists, LGBT venues and others.

"I think you just got the legitimate reason to call CMU and HCU." said Jo.

Gail picked up the phone.

"Community Mobilization Unit? Hi its Detective Gail Peck from 15th Division."

Gail explained what she had learnt. She did the same with the Hate Crimes Unit.

She then rang Holly at the morgue.

"Hi Holly. I don't think you should be alone while this is going on. How secure is the car park at the morgue? I am going to ask for permission to..."

"Gail. Are you serious?"

"Yes. Trust me, your parents are involved with some seriously violent people." Gail received a signal from Jo. "Wait a minute Holly."

"Why don't we go over and do a security assessment." Jo said

"Yeah, thanks Detective." then Gail spoke into the phone again "Detective Rosati and I are coming over."

"OK see you soon." said Holly.

Frank was at the door of the detectives office.

"Just got a call from the HCU about a possible threat to you Gail."

Gail explained what had happened and what she'd found out. Apparently HCU had worked quickly and had come up with even more information. They had come up with specific threat to Holly and by extension Gail.

"I was going to ask permission to carry a weapon off duty anyway sir."

"Well I am now ordering you to do so. How secure is the condo?"

"We're about to go and do a security assessment of the morgue we can do one of the condo afterwards sir." Jo interjected.

"Good, do that. I've called everyone in for a briefing." said Frank and he then left.

Gail and Jo left for the morgue. On the way over Jo received several phone calls from different departments in the Toronto Police keeping her up to speed on developments. This thing was moving fast.

Between calls. Jo turned to a focussed Gail.

"You OK?"

"Ugh it was all going to be so simple. I was going to tell my parents. We were going to tell Holly's somehow and then I was going to propose, even bought the fucking ring."

"Well you can still propose. You can even hold a gun to her head while you do it!" Jo was trying to make light of the situation – it backfired.

"If I need..." Then Gail realised Jo was joking. "Oh! Lamest joke ever detective!"

"Sorry! But you could still propose. With all this stress she's likely to say yes rather quicker."

"Yeah but I just wanted it to be perfect, you know, with wine. Maybe borrow Oliver's cabin..."

"Am I talking to Gail Peck? I see the body and the face but..."

When they got to the morgue they found Holly in her office. Gail couldn't keep the concern from her face. She hugged Holly really tight.

"Holly, this is Detective Jo Rosati. She and I are going to perform an initial security assessment both here and at our condo."

"Is this really necessary. I don't want special treatment." said Holly.

"Yes it is and the only 'special' treatment you're getting is having Gail help with the initial assessment. Oh and having an armed Detective with you when you're off duty the others are having to make do with plain old officers. Other teams have been deployed for similar tasks across the city. We're very pleased to have had a little warning. Vancouver and Edmonton didn't get any. It left several people dead, premisses bombed, we want to avoid that here." replied Jo.

"Which means we need a gun safe installed in our bedroom." said Gail.

"On the way over I rang your boss and explained the situation. We will allocate an officer to be with you all the time while you're on duty. Sorry it can't be Gail but I need her. She's rather good at this detective lark!" added Jo.

Despite herself Gail felt a blush forming.
