Once you read it, you'll understand what I mean when I say, some of the lines in this chapter quite are similar to a situation which happened in The Bill but I've purposely done it & will explain why in the beginning of the next chapter. No copyright intended!

This is a long one so I hope your ready! Enjoy!


Holding onto the table for support, Gabriel Kent managed to lift himself up off the floor and held the back of his head with both hands. He'd only been out for a few moments but it felt as though Rebecca had knocked him for six. Gabriel thought for a moment at the conversation he'd had with the female PC a few minutes earlier, suddenly realising he was in a lot of trouble. Not only did Rebecca know everything but she'd confided in Cameron Tait who went on to admit everything to Inspector Gold and Sergeant Smith. Gabriel knew the Superintendant knew too but wasn't sure how. He'd have to act fast to stop Rebecca telling anyone else, and the evil twisted copper knew exactly what to do. Leaving the office, Gabriel almost ran through the corridors towards the locker room but stopped sharply as he heard the unmistakable strong Australian accent belonging to Cameron Tait.

"Wowww, steady! Bec, you alright?"

Taking a few steps backwards, Gabriel peered around the corner to see Cameron and Rebecca standing together, leaning against the wall. Not waiting around to hear the conversation, Gabriel pushed open the door to the male locker room and once checking it was empty, locked the door from the inside. Opening one of the grey coloured lockers, Gabriel bent down, pulled out a large black holdall from the bottom and placed it on the wooden bench behind him. Slamming the locker shut, Kent picked up the bag, grinned and headed out of the station via the back yard.


Sitting on a chair in the Sergeant's office, Gina Gold watched as Smithy paced around his office.

"Smithy, are you going to tell me what this is about?" she finally questioned.

Smithy spun around, looked at his friend, folded his arms and sighed.

"I told Rebecca I wanted to talk to her didn't I?"

Gina nodded and Smithy continued.

"Cameron must have told her that we knew everything. I told her I understand she feels angry and wants revenge but without any evidence against Gabriel, we can't really do anything. We've only got her and her Uncle's word that it was Gabriel..."
Smithy took a deep breath as he could feel himself welling up.

"Rebecca told me was the one that pushed Kerry to make that allegation against me and when Kerry admitted to Gabriel that she knew all about him, he'd threatened to kill her. I told Rebecca we needed more evidence to nail him and as she left here, she told me she'd get it"

Gina nodded as she took in all the information, realising just how serious this situation was.
"Is that all?" she asked

Smithy nodded but purposely avoided looking at his boss, which made Gina suspicious so she raised her eyebrows.

"Smithy?"

The young Sergeant turned his attention to the Inspector who was now sitting on the edge of her chair. Sighing once again, Smithy hesitantly admitted the truth.

"Well, I warned Rebecca that no one else was to find out about Kent until the time was right and, she told me she'd inform Cameron too. I asked her if they were together and...Erm..."

Smithy could feel his face burning as he blushed so he spun around with his back to Gina.

"I kissed her..."

"Oh Smithy!"

Smithy spun around, face as red as a tomato.

"Well, she kissed me back! Then we kinda, had a moment"

Gina shot up from her chair and stared at the Sergeant.

"Smithy, I think you're too emotionally involved. None of us knew how fond you were of Kerry until after she died and I can understand how you must be feeling today. Now you find out that our new PC is actually the sister of the woman you loved and is here to nail Kerry's killer? I want you to stay away from Rebecca, Gabriel and Cam..."
"Gina you can't be serious? I'm fine; I just want to get Gabriel for what he'd done. I completely believe Rebecca and I know you do too. We both know what Kent is like; you know deep down that he killed Kerry!"

Gina touched Smithy's arm with her cold hand, aiming to calm him down and comfort him.

"Smithy, I DO believe Rebecca but like you told her, we need more evidence and..."

A knock on the door interrupted Gina from finishing her sentence and before either officer could say anything else, Cameron rushed in through the door.

"Marm, Serge, there's something you need to know!"

Gina stared at the Aussie PC and muttered

"Again?"

Cameron nodded and shut the door behind him.

"Gabriel attacked Rebecca...he tried to rape her"

The look of shock spread across both Smithy and Gina's face as they became speechless.

"He took her into an office and told Bec he knew who she was. Bec admitted she knew everything about him too, how she knew and told him why she was at the station. That's when he threw her against the wall and said to her..."
Cameron took a deep breath and tried to control his anger as he continued

"'For being such a silly little girl, I am going to rape & kill you, just like I did with your sister'. He pinned her down on the table but luckily she managed to grab a file and slammed it on his head. When he fell to the floor, she made her escape. She ran into me in the corridor and told me everything!"

There was silence in the office for a few moments until Smithy broke it, asking Cameron

"Where are they both now?"

Cameron shook his head as he explained he didn't know where Gabriel but then added

"Rebecca walked away and when I asked her where she was going, she called back that she was going to get her evidence"

Gina quickly took hand of the situation before anything else could be said.

"Right Smithy, you and Cameron try and find them while I go and update the Super..."
At that very moment, there was another knock on the door and Superintendant O'Karo walked into the room and smiled.

"Oh, having a party in here are we?" O'Karo joked, until he noticed the serious look on his 3 officers.

The three officers knew they had to move quickly because they didn't know the location of neither Rebecca nor Gabriel.

"Adam, the quick version, Gabriel Kent knows everything about Rebecca and he attacked her about ten minutes ago, tried to rape her. Luckily, he didn't because Rebecca knocked him on the head and escaped but now...we don't know where either of them are"

Adam was as shocked at his three officers and together, they headed out of Smithy's office and started searching for the two PC's.


"Hey Rebecca, what you doing in the dark?" Yvonne Hemmingway asked as she walked into the computer room.

"Oh hey Yvonne, I'm just...checking some things" Rebecca replied.

The truth was Rebecca had gone onto the PC to email her Uncle, the Chief Superintendant of New Scotland Yard, to inform him that Gabriel knew the truth because the battery on the blackberry had died. Not wanting to look suspicious, Rebecca decided to start a quick conversation with Yvonne.

"So, how come you're in here and not patrolling the lovely streets?"

Yvonne looked up and smiled

"Ahh, I've got some case notes to type up. The fun of it eh! Oh by the way, that was a lovely song you sung in the memorial earlier. Kerry would've loved it!"

Rebecca felt herself fill up with tears. She knew how close Kerry and Yvonne had been and for some reason, she felt drawn to tell Yvonne the truth.

"Yvonne, I..."

Just then, Rebecca heard Smithy's voice in her head telling her to keep all the information and truth to herself.

"I think we better put a light on" she made up.

Rebecca stood up, flicked the light switch on then returned to her seat in front of the black screened computer. Yvonne tutted and sighed. When Rebecca asked her what was wrong, Yvonne explained that she'd only picked up half of the pile of case notes and the rest were on Smithy's desk.

"I best go and find Sergeant Smith and grab the rest of my notes. Typical. I'm on a time limit too. Oh well, see you in a bit Bec"

Rebecca waved goodbye to her friend and turned her attention back to the computer screen, where she finished typing up her important email and pressed the send button.


Superintendant O'Karo pushed open the double doors of the canteen and called out to the groups of officers inside

"Has anyone seen PC Jones or PC Kent?"

He looked around as the officers shook their head. Once the Super left the canteen, the gossiping started.

"Oo why is the Super looking for them? I wonder what they've done wrong!"

"Someone's in trouble!"

"Maybe they're together somewhere. Oh aii"

Back in the corridor, the Super met up with Gina, Cameron and Smithy, who still hadn't found Gabriel and Rebecca either.

"Has anyone tried their mobiles?" Adam asked.
Nodding, Cameron replied

"Yes sir, I rang Rebecca first and her phone was off. I then tried ringing Gabriel but it just kept ringing"

Gina spoke next

"I've looked in the ladies locker room, shower room and toilets, no sign of Rebecca"

Once Gina finished speaking, Smithy informed them that he had checked the male versions for Gabriel, but hadn't found him. Just then, Yvonne walked down the corridor, calling her Sergeant.

"Serge, any chance I could grab the rest of my case notes from your desk please? I just realised, I only picked up half of them" Yvonne laughed but stopped at the serious looks of her colleagues.

Smithy nodded and handed her his office keys, giving her a friendly warning to remember to lock the door behind her and keep them safe until he could collect them a while later. As Yvonne walked back down the corridor, Smithy called after her.

"Yvonne, I don't suppose you've seen PC's Jones or Kent have you?"

Yvonne spun around and answered her Sergeant.

"I haven't got a clue where Gabriel is but as for Rebecca, yeah she's in the computer room with me"

Smithy and Cameron raced towards the computer room with a confused Yvonne trailing behind. Smithy was just in front of Cameron so once they got there, the young Sergeant pushed open to door to the computer room...and found that it was empty. Rebecca had gone. Yvonne stood behind them and looked into the room.

"Oh well, she was there five minutes ago"

Cameron sighed and shook his head, exclaiming

"This is not good!"

"Chill Cam, I'm sure she's around somewhere" called Yvonne from her seat at the computer desk.

Cameron replied to his friend by shouting back

"You don't understand!"

Yvonne really needed to finish typing up her case notes but was slightly confused at why Smithy and Cameron were so desperate to find Rebecca, so decided to confront them. Standing back up, Yvonne walked over to the doorway where both men were standing. Raising her eyebrow, Yvonne ordered

"Then inform me!"
Smithy passed Cameron a slight shake of the head, signalling for Cameron not to tell Yvonne the truth. Instead, he turned around and walked down the corridor, expecting Cameron to follow him. However, he came to a stop when he realised Cameron hadn't moved an inch. Turning around, Smithy called out for his friend to follow him and eventually, he did. Just as they were about to walk back through the double doors at the end of the corridor, Cameron turned back around and called out Yvonne's name. Waiting only a few seconds, Yvonne appeared in the doorway at the top end of the corridor. Glancing back at Smithy, Cameron took a deep breath and announced

"Rebecca...she's Kerry's little sister"

Smithy tutted shook his head and walked away with Cameron, leaving Yvonne shocked at what she'd just been told.


Seeing the look on the two boys' faces, Gina and Adam instantly knew that Rebecca wasn't in the computer room. All four officers were starting to get fed up of not being able to find them but knew that if she stopped looking, they could be leaving Rebecca in trouble.

"Oh Sir, Marm, there's a lady in the front office asking to see you both, a Mrs Lambert?" Tony called to Superintendant O'Karo as he walked into the corridor where they were all standing. The Super nodded and walked towards the door leading into the front office, followed by Gina, Smithy and Cameron. As Adam and Gina approached the lady, Cameron and Smithy hovered. They waited for the front desk officer to finish her telephone call and once she had, Smithy asked her a question.

"Hey Robbie, don't suppose you've seen Rebecca or Gabriel have you?"

Robbie scrunched up her face and whispered

"I haven't seen Gabriel and to be honest Smithy, I don't really want to. He's...creepy"

Both Smithy and Cameron grinned before Smithy added

"And Rebecca?"

This time, Robbie smiled, nodded and replied

"Ah now the lovely Rebecca, she's really nice and friendly. Yeah she went out into the front yard like...ten seconds ago"

Smithy and Cameron looked at each other and both raced towards the door. Smithy flung the door open to find Rebecca standing outside, in the exact spot that Kerry was shot down a year previous.

Seeing her standing there didn't only bring back memories but also gave Smithy a terrible feeling in the pit of his stomach. It was almost like Déjà vu! From the doorway, Smithy looked around at the offices across the road while Cameron called out to his beloved friend.

"Bec what you doing? Get back in here, come on!"

Gina and Adam heard Rebecca's name mentioned so dashed over to the door to find out what was going on. Smithy's heart was beating so fast he thought it might just pop out of his body. At that very moment, the Sergeant realised how scared he was. However, putting his fears behind him and taking a deep breath, Smithy bolted over to Rebecca, who turned around at the sound of his footsteps. She gave Smithy a smile that melted his heart so all he could do was smile right back at her.

"Hey you okay?" Smithy nodded, chuckled nervously and listened as Rebecca added.

"Smithy, I made a promise to myself after Kerry died. The amount of things I know about Kent will mean big changes for him. He'll get sent down for life!"

Smithy took a deep breath and looked into Rebecca's shining blue eyes.

"The information on Gabriel...enough people know already. We need to keep it quiet from everyone else until enough evidence against him has been collected, then we can ask MIT to re-open Kerry's murder case"

"It's not just that anymore though Smithy, it's more than that, much more!" Rebecca stated.

"I don't care! Look, I want a result for Kerry's death just as much as you do, but I don't want anyone else getting hurt, especially you!" admitted Smithy, blushing from cheek to cheek.

Rebecca gazed into Dale Smith's emerald green eyes and gave a huge sigh before smiling.

"Fine. I know my emotions are a bit...everywhere at the moment and I just want revenge for my sister but, I don't exactly want to get hurt do I. Otherwise, I won't be around to see Kent get what he deserves. So, Smithy...I'll listen to you!"

Smithy gave a sigh of relief and let a smile appear on his face.

"Yeah?" he asked

"Yeah" Rebecca replied, smiling back at her friend and Sergeant.

Suddenly, as Smithy took a single step backwards to head into the station, a loud gun shot rang out and hit Rebecca, causing her to collapse into Smithy's arms.

"Oh no, no not again! No Rebecca, no!" Smithy called out as he struggled to hold up Rebecca.

Just then, a second shot was heard and Smithy fell onto the floor with Rebecca bleeding to death in his arms. Looking at his hand, Smithy realised it was covered in blood and he couldn't believe it was happening again.

"Becca, no don't, come on!"

With little breath, Rebecca called out

"Smithy. Smithy!"

Cameron, Gina and Adam all looked on from the doorway in shock. No-one could believe what was happening. Was it a coincidence that Rebecca had just been shot in the exact same place her sister had been the year before...on the one year anniversary of her death?

One thing was for sure...history was cruelly repeating itself!
