Heres chapter 3 people!

i already have chapter 4 planned out in my head and i hope to get it out to you guys tomorrow!

Rookie Blue and its concepts do not belong to me.

Focus. Focus. Focus. Focus Andy. I chanted to myself.

I knew that if I gave in to the emotions threatening to break through, I was going to do something I'd regret later.

But the cagey feelings of fear and despair were resting at the surface, clouding my mind.

Act like a cop, McNally. Sam's words floated into my mind, the voice in my head strangely comforting.

I took a deep breath and focused on the man standing right in front of me.

"Yes really" I heard Sam respond. I wanted so badly to look at him, to look at that oddly reassuring face, but my cop instincts told me otherwise.

Rocco stopped less than a foot away from me. If I were to reach out, I would be able to touch him. Ew.

"Oh Sam" Rocco murmured. "How could you forget so soon? Last I saw you, I was positive that it was something you could never forget" he shifted his gazed from me to Sam, who had gone completely still.

"I guess I was wrong." He whispered. The silky sound sending goose bumps down my skin. Instantly I was afraid.

The whole room was silent; the only audible sound was the old man's gasping breaths.

Sam's voice eventually broke the silence. "Yeah I guess you were."

I couldn't help it, I flinched, as did the old man.

My movement brought Rocco's attention back to me. He grinned.

"Jumpy, aren't you?" he said mockingly. "Tell me, how good can a jumpy cop be?"

"She's as good as she needs to be" Sam replied before I could even form an answer in my head. I risked a quick glace in his direction. He was unnaturally pale, and it made me anxious to know that whatever was going on here, it made him worried.

He was looking subtly back and forth between the two bodyguards and Rocco. To the casual onlooker, he seemed to be assessing his surroundings, but I knew him better than the casual onlooker.

He looked as if he was anticipating all of hell to break loose. I couldn't help feeling that all hell breaking loose would be easier to deal with than whatever was going on right now.

"She is, is she?" he drawled and raised his hand towards my face. Instinctively, I took a step back and reached for my gun. Buzz cut and tattoo dude instantly shifted as well, as did Sam, who took a small step in my direction.

Rocco's arm dropped back to his side as he laughed.

Did he think that all of this was funny? God, the man was wacked.

I could hear my heart pounding in my chest and I was pretty sure everyone else could as well.

"Well Sam, since you seemed to have forgotten about our last meeting, why don't I revive your memory?" And with that, he reached for me again, grabbing me behind the head to pull me closer to him.

I instantly pulled my gun out and pressed it to his chest.

And that was when all of hell broke loose.

I watched as Daffanzo grabbed Andy behind the head, dragging her to him. That bit of contact was enough to make me want to empty all my rounds into him.

But as if that wasn't bad enough, I watched in masked horror as she pulled out her gun and put it to his chest.

But before I could do anything about that, Tweedledum and Tweedledum er were on the move.

They had drawn their guns (which was illegal, but then again, not that these guys gave a shit) and advanced to where Andy was still standing with a gun to Daffanzo's chest.

As the cop in me took over I moved in front of Andy and Rocco, drawing my own weapon. From the corner of my eye, i could see that the panicked old man had plastered himself against a wall.

And through it all, Rocco was laughing. Sadistic son of a bitch.

"Cops are so volatile" he laughed. "You really don't want to mess with me sweetheart" he said while looking pointedly at the weapon she held to his chest.

"I don't? Funny, because last time I checked, I did." She said in a steely voice that only wavered a bit. Even as I admired her for it, I wanted to smack her for pouring fuel into the fire.

"Ok" I said loudly. "Why don't we all just calm down? Let's start, Daffanzo, by telling your guard dogs to sit."

I don't think the two men took being called "guard dogs" too well, because they both rushed at me at the same time, guns raised.

"Sam!" I heard Andy's panicked voice calling my name as if to inform me of the oncoming duo. Did she really think that I didn't realize the two of them coming at me? Kinda hard to miss, princess.

I crouched low and rushed at one of the two men, the one with a buzz cut. As I tackled him to the floor, I shot out one of my legs to trip the other.

"Sam!" Andy's voice called again. The hysteria in it evident.

It really bruised my ego to have her doubt my ability to take these two down singlehandedly. It made me want to prove her wrong.

And that, I realized, was where I made my first mistake; never go in with a personal agenda.

I guess that's what started the rapid downward spiral of the evening.

I should have known to keep my thoughts in check, because if I did, I would have seen this coming.

Bang! Bang!
