Dale Smith, Cameron Tait, Yvonne Hemmingway, Gina Gold, George Young and Eddy Roberts were still in Rebecca's hospital room when Superintendant O'Karo arrived. Gina had rung Adam to inform him of the whole incident with Gabriel Kent and, of course, he dropped everything to race over to the hospital. Once there, Rebecca passed her phone onto her boss so he could listen to the evil copper's confession. After listening to it all, Adam radioed Jack Meadows back at the station and ordered him to send officers out onto the streets to start the search for Gabriel Kent. It was time for everyone in the room to head back to the station but Rebecca wasn't planning on staying either. After ten minutes, the young PC managed to persuade Adam to let her return to the station so she too could start looking for Kent. So, along with her Dad, Smithy and Yvonne, Rebecca jumped into her Uncle's car and went on the short journey back to the station.
"He can't have just...disappeared!" yelled DI Manson as he sat in an office along with Rebecca, Smithy, Gina, George Young, Jack Meadows, Chief Super Roberts and Superintendant O'Karo. They were sat watching uniformed officers walking the streets of Sun hill on the hunt for Gabriel Kent. The officers have been searching, unsuccessfully, for nearly three hours but it seemed that the evil copper had simply vanished. As they continued to watch the CCTV, an idea flashed into Rebecca's head and, turning her attention away from the views of the Sunhill streets, she took a deep breath.
"What if, I contacted Gabriel and asked him to meet me?"
There was silence for a slight second until Smithy broke it, shouting
"Bec, he's dangerous. He tried to kill you! What's saying he won't hurt you again?"
Shocked by her Sergeant's response, Rebecca looked away from him and turned her attention to her Uncle, the Chief Superintendant of New Scotland Yard.
"What you think Uncle Ed? I'm sure I can persuade him to agree to meet me"
Roberts took a few moments to think. He knew that Gabriel Kent had to be arrested and he knew that Rebecca wanted to be the one to do it but, he didn't want her to get hurt anymore than she already had been. However, turning to look at his one remaining niece, Eddy noticed the look in her eyes. It was a mixture of hurt and passion. Rebecca had not only lost her Sister but nearly lost her own life too because of Gabriel Kent but she was so fixated on getting revenge and sending the evil cop down. So, he finally came to a decision.
"Okay, you ring him and convince him to meet you. We'll be close by, ready to grab him!"
Ignoring Smithy rolling his eyes, Rebecca slipped her hand into her pocket and pulled out her blackberry. Unlocking it, she scrolled through it until finally coming across Gabriel's number. With shaking hands, Rebecca pressed the call button and DI Manson quickly shut the door before ordering everyone to be silent. After what seemed like ages, a deep voice was finally heard on the other end.
"Hello? Hello?"
Taking a very deep breath, Rebecca responded
"Gabriel...it's Rebecca"
"Hey Becca, how you feeling?" asked Gary Best as Rebecca walked into the canteen.
Rebecca replied that she was okay and asked if he'd saw Smithy. Gary and a few others shook their heads but Tony Stamp informed Rebecca that he spotted the young Sergeant headed towards his office just five minutes earlier. Thanking her colleagues, Rebecca left the canteen quick walked down the corridor. While Rebecca had been arranging to meet Gabriel Kent, Smithy stormed out, annoyed that she was putting herself in more danger. Once the phone call had finished, Rebecca filled in her Dad, her Uncle, O'Karo, Manson, Meadows and Gold on the details about the meeting with Gabriel before she headed off to find her sulking Sergeant.
Knock knock
Smithy lifted his head up from the desk and spotted the newest PC standing in his doorway.
"Can I come in or?" Rebecca asked
Smithy nodded and watched as Rebecca stepped into the office and shut the door behind her.
"I'm meeting Gabriel in an hour, at the quay by the River Thames" announced Rebecca.
"Yeah, if he turns up that is!" spat Smithy, rolling his eyes.
"Smithy, you know why I have to do this, don't you?" Rebecca asked.
Jumping up from his seat, Smithy shouted
"No Rebecca, I don't. So feel free to give an explanation!"
"He murdered my sister Smithy, that's WHY!" yelled Rebecca, suddenly aware of the tears rolling down her cheeks.
Before Smithy could say anything else, Rebecca wiped her tears and ordered him to sit down.
"Smithy, I know this might sound...strange but, I saw her. I saw Kerry"
Rebecca paused, expecting Smithy to say something but instead she noticed the look of confusion on his face so, she continued.
"When I was in the ambulance, I left and went to this, this beautiful heaven-like place. I thought I was dead. I wasn't bleeding anymore and I was dressed in a lovely dress instead of my blood-stained clothes. Visions appeared and I saw Gabriel attacking me. Then I saw you standing over me in the ambulance, and then I saw myself get shot and fall to the floor..."
Rebecca paused for air but made sure not to make any eye contact with Smithy.
"Next, I heard church bells and as I looked closely, the church from St Mary's Street was there. It was like magic 'cos when I got closer, the door opened and a light shone from inside. I followed it and thought, this is it. I'm dead and I'm on my way to Heaven. There was a door and when I pushed it open, there she was. There was my sister, alive and well, standing in front of me, smiling"
Smithy jumped up from the chair and walked towards the wall. As he sniffled, Rebecca knew he was getting upset so remained silent until Smithy turned back around and asked her to continue.
"Kerry hugged me and it felt so good to feel her warm arms around me. As I looked around, I saw my grandparents and then, I saw my Mum and..."
Smithy handed Rebecca a tissue and dragged his chair to sit beside her.
"My boyfriend, he got killed a few years ago but he was there, standing in the church and he kissed me. He said that he'd be waiting there for me, when I'm ready to leave. I was confused and when I asked Kerry where we were, she said that it's the place we all made together so that we could find one another. Kez told me it wasn't my time to die because I had things to do and I hadn't finished what I'd started. She said we won't be leaving, but moving on. All of us, together, but only when it was the right time. She said she'd been waiting when I was ready. Then, a bright light filled the room and when I opened my eyes, I saw you and realised I was back in the ambulance, fighting for my life"
Taking Smithy's hand in hers, Rebecca lastly added
"I hope you now understand why I have to go and meet Gabriel tonight. I came to this station to get revenge for Kerry's death and that's what I am doing. I need to finish what I started"
Without saying another word, Rebecca stood up and walked towards the door. Opening it, she took a step out before turning back around to face Smithy, who looked up from the floor. He smiled, nodded at her and watched as she closed the door and disappeared out of sight.
Thirty minutes later, everyone was ready to leave the station. Rebecca had changed and was now wearing jeans, a warm hoodie, a jacket, uggs, a scarf and a matching woolly beanie. The group of officers walked out into the back yard together but obviously Rebecca had to into her car alone. Smithy drove his car down with Gina Gold, inside while Neil Mason drove the riot van with Chief Superintendent Roberts, Superintendant O'Karo and Inspector Gold inside. They all thought it was best for George Young (Rebecca's Dad) to stay at the station accompanied by Cameron and Yvonne. Rebecca parked her car at the side of the pavement and got out. She gave a quick look around to see if Gabriel was around but couldn't see him so walked over to the quay. Neil and Smithy pulled up nearby, making sure to be in the shadows so they couldn't be seen by Gabriel when he arrived. Chief Superintendent Roberts had also organised backup officers from New Scotland Yard to turn up and park nearby as well as a car full of 2019 officers armed with guns. The plan that had been made was that, as soon as Gabriel was spotted heading towards Rebecca, the Sunhill lot and S019 would grab him and arrest him. Neil spoke into a radio and asked Smithy if there was any sign of Gabriel but Smithy replied no. However, just a few seconds later, Smithy spoke into the radio to Neil.
"He's here!"
As Neil looked around, he spotted a tall dark figure coming out of the shadows and walking towards the quay. Just as Rebecca leaned over the metal poles to look in the water below, she spotted a shadow and quickly spun around on her feet.
"Hello sweetheart"
Rebecca gulped and glanced over at Smithy's car, which went un-noticed by Gabriel.
"Hello Gabriel. You don't know how happy I am that you're here!" admitted Rebecca.
Before anything else could be said, the sound of footsteps were heard and as Gabriel spun around, he saw lots of figures running towards him. The psycho cop tried to run but as he did, Smithy flew at him, pounding him to the floor and S019 officers with guns circled around him. Smithy stood up and yanked Gabriel up off the floor. Neil was just about to grab Gabriel and put him into the riot van but Smithy stopped him. Turning to Rebecca, the young Sergeant announced
"PC...Young, I think there's something you need to do"
Smithy nodded at Rebecca, who took a deep breath and walked towards Gabriel, who looked at her with evil eyes. Rebecca smirked at him before she spoke.
"Gab...David Kent, I'm arresting you for using a false identification, for the...for the rape and murder of PC Kerry Young...and the attempted murder of me, PC Rebecca Young. You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you'll later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence"
Turning to her colleges, Rebecca ordered
"Take him away!"
Rebecca watched Adam O'Karo and Eddy Roberts shoved him into the riot van and slammed the door shut behind him. Neil turned to Rebecca and Smithy, nodded and called
"See you back at the station"
The PC and the Sergeant watched as the riot van drove off down the road followed by the car of S019 officers. Once they were out of sight, Smithy turned to Rebecca who was standing next to him. Smiling, he nudged her elbow and whispered
"You did it Bec. You've finished what you started!"
Looking up at her Sergeant, Rebecca flashed a huge smile and replied
"Yeah I have. I've finally finished what I started"
