Note: Not sure if there is going to be an update tomorrow it depends on how this chapter plays out. Anyway today's Wednesday! Can't wait for Murifield to start to play their part in the second half of the season. I really hope Alex is an agent, I mean that would explain why she is so chill. Like honestly, I would NOT be all "Just tell 'em your name Vince it'll be okay." If I saw cops arresting my ex-fiance. I would be more along the lines of, "HOLY *$%#" But that's just me...

I DO NOT OWN BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Chapter 52

"Thanks for the ride JT, I really appreciate it." Vincent said before closing the passenger door.

JT smiled. "No problem just remember to check in every now and again will ya?"

Vincent nodded. "I will."

"Thanks."

Vincent said one last good-bye before closing the door. He watched as JT drove down the dirt road. 'It'll be good for JT to have some time to himself.' Vincent thought as the car disappeared behind the pine trees. He turned around to face the cabin and sighed. He looked at the large porch that wrapped around the entire cabin with white lights lighting up the outside walls. He had to be honest with himself he felt bad leaving Catherine in the city but in a way it would be good for her too.

"So what your saying is they now have a more accurate location?" Catherine asked looking over Gabe's shoulder.

Gabe nodded and pointed to map of New York he had up on his screen. "Again, no exact coordinates but hey, it's better then last time."

Catherine swallowed. But on the bright side, Gabe seemed to have let go that she had something to do with Vincent.

"So my guess, is it is somewhere around the Hudson River or Catskill Mountains." Gabe pointed to where the Hudson River split into two. "Probably somewhere around that general area." he said making small circles with his pencil.

Catherine nodded. "So you're just going to keep a close eye on it's movement?"

Gabe shook his head. "Hell no."

Catherine felt her heart pick up it's pace.

"We have no idea where else this thing might be headed. For all we know it might be headed to Canada to cross the boarder. Then our chances will be so slim it will be impossible. This equipment only works in the US. Plus it's near the Catskill Mountains, not many people live in mountains. It will be easy to track it."

Catherine swallowed and slowly nodded. "So what's your plan?"

Gabe sighed. "No plan yet, I first gotta wait for Evan, run this stuff by him."

Catherine nodded. "Well I have to get back to work. Keep me updated though."

Gabe stuck the eraser of his pencil in his mouth as he continued to stare at the screen. "Mhm." he said between his teeth.

Catherine made her way back up the stairs and sat down at her desk and let out a large sigh.

"Whoa there, someone have a rough night?" Tess asked as she put her bag on her desk chair.

"What?" Catherine asked looking up.

"That sigh, you sounded like a horse, everything okay?"

Catherine looked back at her desk. "Yes. Everything's fine, just people will do some weird things to others that's all."

Tess gave Catherine a weird look. "Yeah almost 5 years I've been here and still, what goes through some of these people's brains gives me the creeps."

Catherine let out a nervous laugh. "People will be people."

"Speaking of..." Tess said trying to avoid eye contact with the person approaching her.

"Tess." Brendan said making his way over to the two detectives.

Tess put up her index finger. "Just gimme a minute?"

Brendan nodded and headed back towards his office.

"God I hate that guy."

Catherine laughed while Tess put a file on her desk. "Wish me luck." Tess said under her breath.

She walked over to Brendan's office and opened the door.

"Hello." Brendan said as he watched her close the door.

"Hi." Tess mumbled as she turned around to face him.

"Coffee?"

Tess put up her hand. "Good thanks."

Brendan nodded and poured himself a mug. "Take a seat."

Tess did as she was told and then said, "Is this gunna take long, 'cause I've gotta case-"

Brendan smiled. "Relax, it'll only take a few minutes. I just want to follow up, see how you're doing."

Tess forced a smile. "Fine thanks."

"Anything you wanna talk about?" Brendan asked before taking a sip of his coffee.

Tess shook her head as she looked around the room. "Nope. Nice office you got here."

Brendan put down his coffee mug. "Thanks."

Tess continued to look around feeling kinda awkward when Brendan decided to speak up.

"How was things outside of work going?" Brendan asked. "Relationship's going good?"

For a second Tess didn't say anything.

"Tess?" Brendan asked.

She shook her head pretending she was just lost in thought. "Uh yeah, everything's good."

"That's good. Since everything is going well with you how about answering a few questions for me?" Brendan asked as he grabbed a clip board off his desk.

Tess nodded. "Sounds fun." she said in a sarcastic tone.

"Mm, so the first one is, 'How would you describe the people in your work environment?' Do they seem to be keep secrets, or are they all pretty open and friendly."

"Do you want my honest opinion or-"

Brendan nodded. "Honest is best."

Tess took a deep breath. "Good."

"Good?"

"Yeah everyone might not get along but we manage."

"Tell me about it." Brendan said sitting back in his chair.

"Excuse me?" Tess asked raising an eye brow.

"What makes you say that everyone might not get along?"

"Well..." Tess started out mentally cursing herself for even saying anything. "People tend to not always respect, people's private lives."

"Do you have an example?"

Tess swallowed. "Some people assume things, and think they are right...so they push the person to say what they wanna hear."

"Is there anything that might make you say that? Any specific employees? Remember this is a private conversation so don't worry about anyone finding out."

Tess sighed. "Well there was this guy, who doesn't work here..." she lied. " and we have kinda had a so-called 'thing' but we both know it shouldn't be happening."

Brendan gave Tess a confused look. "Whattya mean? Can you be a bit more specific?"

Tess let out another big sigh. "Well he is sorta...already in a relationship..."

Around lunch time Catherine quickly packed up her belongings and headed out for the day. Since she came in early on Wednesday's she got to leave early as well which was always a plus. That is when she had Vincent around. But that thought quickly vanished from her mind thinking of a way to tell JT that 'they' were back.

She pulled up to the warehouse and quickly got out of her car. She made her way up to where the living quarters were and walked over to where JT was sitting. "Good you're here." Catherine said.

JT jumped a mile almost knocking over one of his test tubes. "Jesus! Don't you knock?!"

Catherine walked up to the table and rested her hands on the edge. "I have news."

JT raised an eyebrow. "New? What sorta news? News as in Sarah Palin can see Russia from her window or news news?'

Catherine gave JT a very strange look. "What do you think?"

JT shrugged. "I don't know I heard she had her own TV show and-"

"JT." Catherine said giving him a stern look.

JT looked down at his test tube and mumbled something that Catherine couldn't quite make out.

"JT, it's Murifield."

JT's head shot up and look Catherine dead in the eyes. "Murifield?"

Catherine sighed. "They're back..."

JT grew wide-eyed. "What?! When? Where?"

"Don't worry to much as far as I know only two other people know at my precinct about Vincent's location."

"You told them?!" JT yelled.

Catherine glared at JT. "Of course not!"

"Well they had a DNA tracker and-"

"Why didn't you tell us?!"

"I did!" Catherine snapped. "Look , obviously we are both a bit over to edge right now but standing her yelling at each other won't help our chances of getting to Vincent before them."

"Before them? No, you see that's not an opintion, they move way to fast."

"Well I'm not going to stand here an watch the man I lo- Vincent get taken down my Murifield. If I have to go up there myself then god dammit so be it!"

Before JT could say a single word Catherine already stormed outside of the warehouse. 'Did she say she loved him?' JT asked himself. However while hearing the faint sound of Catherine's car engine starting he decided he had to stay here incase any agents came here looking for him. He was a bit on overload with the whole consept of Vincent just leaving but Catherine was right, he couldn't just stand here."

Even though it was against the law she really didn't care at this point. It took 2 hours to get to Catskill, NY and if she had to turn on her lights to get past traffic then so be it. Even though if another cop saw her for doing so when she wasn't in her own location she could lose her job and be in big legal trouble she wasn't going to let that stop her from finding Vincent.

After about half and hour later the sun was already beginning to set when she was the exit for Catskill. She turned on her blinker and clicked turned off her siren trying to draw least attention as possible, if the Murifield agents where anywhere near here she didn't want them noticing her. Which that fact she had an NYPD cruiser didn't really help her chances. She saw the road that lead to Duck Cove and took a left. She continued to drive on Alpha Boulevard until she reached the last house on the road. Sure enough, it was Vincent's.

She back the cruiser up trying to hide it the best she could behind some trees and bushes. After she did her best attempt at hiding the white and royal blue car she got out and made her way onto the porch. She walked around it a bit admiring what a gorgeous cabin it really was. She found the found door and knocked on it. She knew Vincent would recognize her scent and heartbeat. She held her breath until the door slowly opened.

"Catherine?" Vincent asked making a very confused face. "What are you doing here?"

Catherine looked around her and pushed Vincent into the house. "Get in."

Vincent willingly backed up but then stopped once he was out of the doorway. "Catherine what-"

"Just not now, okay? Has anyone else been here?"

Vincent crossed his arms. "No why? Is there something going on? Because I-"

Catherine sighed. "That's not what this is about."

"Catherine what's going on you sound like your going to have a heart attack."

Catherine felt her heart pounded against her rib cage as she look up at Vincent. "It's Murifield."

Alright so I will actually be posting later tonight as well because I want to avoid posting on Thursday because I want to start tying in the promo for 'Trust No One' on Thursday so expect Chapter 53 to be up later tonight. Thanks for reading and reviews are very much appreciated :)
