Badcop or Aiden as he is mostly known to his brother and parents, was sitting in his office chair looking over some paper work. It was boring but it had to be done. He wondered if Declan, Goodcop's real name, was doing okay alone with the builders. He kept having this feeling at the pit of his stomach that something was wrong.
But he'd been having that feeling for a while now. Ever since the incident with Business, he slightly stiffened at that, the memory a bitter taste in his mind, his brother held down, Business bringing his fist up. He shook the memory away. He still had resentment towards Business even though he was doing community service hours and such, he had his own punishment as well but he had been able to reclaim his place as chief of police after several months of hard work and his help against the kragle and duplo incident.
He cringed at the last part, those things where freaky. They had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and started causing trouble. Now they were scattered and causing small incident here and there, at least no one had been hurt so far. Suddenly a female officer rushed into his office saying "Sir a duplo has crashed into the nearby coffee shop." His heart seemed to stop at that, there was only one nearby coffee shop and that was the one Declan was at.
Aiden didn't let he officer finish, he couldn't hear her as his blood thumped in his ears. He felt like a fool, why did he take his eyes of his brother? He should of never done that, he can't' defend himself, he never could. He only became a cop because their parents were cops and because he was a cop. He knew Declan wasn't strong enough, he showed that with the incident with Business.
He needed to protect his brother, that was his job. He hoped the builders where taking care of it, he hoped Declan was staying out of it. But he knew that wouldn't be the case, he always had a sense of loyalty and duty. That's why he made it into the force. He prayed before he left and before he knew it he had gotten to the coffee shop, two officers stood there in front of the door yelling.
What were they thinking, did they want to get killed? He heard shouting as he came to the door and his heart stopped for before his eyes his brother was being slashed by a duplo. Aiden felt his face turned red as he rushed forward and kicked a chair right at it. It screeched in pain as it fell. Aiden growled and barked behind him "Get that thing out of here! And call 911!" the two officers that should of bean taking care of this came to take the creature and took it away, he have chat with them later.
The female cop, he believed her name was officer Rose, came up calling 911 as she leaned down to check his brother. He wasn't far behind her as he fell to his knees beside him and said "Declan, wake up?" Declan moaned saying "Hello buddy." Aiden grabbed him saying "Don't do that again I said call me and to wait for back up." "There wasn't' time. Plus I wasn't alone." Declan looked to the side with a slight smile.
Aiden looked confused as he turned to see who it was he was staring at. It was no officer, it was a civilian girl. Declan said with a slight blush "She stopped it from biting me and helped me restraint it, ow, that is till the other officers came in and distracted us. Ouch." Oh Aiden would be having a nice long chat with them. He looked to the girl she seemed a bit shaken from the experience and he said "You okay mam?"
She nodded, a bit of tear in her eyes saying "I'm fine. Is Declan going to be okay?" Aiden was shocked by this, how did she know his brother? And where were those builders? He asked Declan later but now, he was going to ask the girl how she knew his brother when Declan said "I'm okay Piper, thanks again for your help. Though um could I ask for one thing?" The girl came up as she nodded saying "What is it?"
Declan had a furious blush on his face as he said "Um I I I, gulp, could I have your number you know to see if you want to hang out sometime." Badcop looked absolutely shocked did his brother just, no, no that's not possible he was why too scared to, then he heard Piper say "Of course." She grabbed a piece of paper and handed it to him. Declan smiled a toothy grin as he said "Thanks…..So I'll see you soon?" She nodded saying "If you want. Feel better okay." He nodded as suddenly the paramedics came.
Badcop was still in a daze from what he saw but fallowed the paramedics wanting to keep an eye on his brother. Piper stood there shocked as the two left Declan giving her funny smile as he left. She smiled slightly and said "Did that really just happen?" a female officer came up to her saying "Excuse me mam but what exactly just happened here?" she sighed knowing it was best to explain the incident.
Unknown to them all that the Duplo had recorded the information it had obtained, both Declan's and Piper's faces imprinted in its mind and that information spread to the othesr and more specifically to their leader. A voice masculine and non-childlike voice said "Hmm interesting. Strange no one had ever tried to use the pack mentality on them before. I'll have to keep an eye on those two." A smirk stretched across his human like face.
The ride to the hospital was silent. The paramedics worked on Goodcop making sure to close up the wound and made sure he was comfortable. Though it seemed as if it wouldn't have mattered, Declan had a peaceful look on his face as he looked at the piece of paper with the numbers on it. His mind swirling with several thought. 'She said yes. I can't believe she wants to see me again. But what should I do, what should I say? Wait, how's Aiden going to take this?'
He looked to his brother who kept his serious face up but he could sense the tension off of him. He knew they would end up talking once they were alone, but what they be talking about he was unsure about.
Later on as Declan was getting medical care and the doctors had said he be just fine, Aiden leaned over the bed his brother was in and said "I'll be back to take you home. Rest up. I have to go back to the station and have a chat with those two knuckleheads." Declan sighed saying "Don't go throwing any chairs at them." Aidne didn't say anything as he marched out. Declan sighed knowing those two where most likely fired. Besides almost getting him killed for not going through protocol on a duplo mission they were also the closest emergency response team, and they took too long to arrive at the situation.
It didn't take long for Aiden to get to the precinct, in full Badcop mode if I may add. He was kicking chairs around and screaming at the two. "You two are emergency response. It shouldn't take you that long to get to the coffee shop, especially with a duplo threat!" once cop foolishly said "But sir….." "No buts! A fellow officer was almost killed because of your timing. If you had done your jobs right you would of bean there to help assist your fellow officer properly instead of almost getting him killed when he and a civilian had already handle the situation."
"It's not our fault Goodcop is such a weakling!" Suddenly the cop that said that covered his mouth. The poor fool was now being glared down by Badcop, a glare that could only be rivaled by Batman's, though he never admit it. He leaned into the two cops who looked pale white as he said "I want your badges on my desk now! You two are fired!" the two men screamed in fear as they ran out to do as told.
Once they were gone though he looked down sadly thinking 'Why did they have to be right?' Suddenly officer Rose came in, she was a strong woman with black hair tied into a bun and said "See you took care of that easily." Badcop only said as he walked passed her "Get those two out of here and confiscate their badges and tasers' for me. I have work to do." She nodded saying "Of course. Tell chief Declan I hope he does better." He stopped suddenly at the door looked back and said with a slightly depressed voice that the female cop barely caught "I will." And so he walked off. Not turning to see the pitied look on the woman's face.
Badcop had picked up Goodcop as he said and the two came through the front door of their two stories home similar to the other houses in Bricksberg. Once they entered Declan sat on the couch and sighed. Aiden came to sit beside him and said "What they say about the injury?" "Superficial, really, I'll be fine by tomorrow. But because we don't know much about duplo anatomy they wanted to make sure it didn't get infected with some space disease or something."
Aiden only nodded, but Declan could feel the worry rolling off of him and said "Don't do that. I know how you really feel. You can tell me, I'm your brother remember." Aiden smiled the slightest of smiles and said "Yeah, you are." And rapped an arm around him Declan did the same and aid "I'm okay, everything's okay buddy." Aiden only nodded, Declan though felt that something else was wrong, usually Badcop would be telling him how reckless he was, but it seemed instead that his brother was on some sort of autopilot.
Then Aiden said "Don't do that again pleas. I almost lost you once, don't ever make me go thought that again." Declan sighed, it was that again. And he said "It's not going to happen again. But I'm a cop I have responsibilities just like you." "Then why did you let a civilian get involve?"
His voice seemed to of raised and Declan replied with "She was the only one who helped me. The duplo was about to rip me to shreds and she threw her plat on its head. She made sure it didn't hurt me. And in return I made sure it didn't hurt her. Plus she knew how to handle it. You know how we always saw them work in packs. Well she used this pack mentality to overpower it. It was amazing how she knew about such things. I don't know many people who would actually apply that kind of information."
Aiden grunted saying "That why you got her number, think she be a good recruit?" Declan blushed at this saying "Actually I got her number because well I thought she was eeeeeee…." Declan couldn't get the words out, even in front of his brother. He didn't have to, Aiden could read him like a book as he raised a brow and said "How this come about?" Declan shrugged saying "I don't' know it just did."
Aiden wanted to say something; he didn't think his brother could actually handle a relationship. He could barely handle himself. Yes he was responsible and all but, he just didn't think he was ready. He looked to his brother's hand and saw the still smooth piece of paper with numbers. His brother seemed so content with it, at least just with the number. Maybe he wouldn't even call, he was much too edgy for something like that. He got up growling "Just don't let something like this happen again."
Declan only smiled knowing his brother was only worried and said "Goodnight Aiden." Said brother only shook his head and walked off to his own room. Declan smiled and looked down at the number, he wondered if he should call? Maybe he call tomorrow when things had calmed down. With that he got up and headed to his own room as well.
Next up Badcop goes too far on his overprotectiveness and Goodcop….put's his foot down?
