A quick shot at a work related story that was requested...
"Morning, Doc. What have we got?" Frost asked as he and Jane ducked up the crime scene tape that was stretched across the alley way.
Maura looked up from where she was knelt over the body to greet her two colleagues. "Hello detectives. African American male, mid to late 20s with two gunshot wounds to the chest. I am unable to estimate the caliber of the bullet but neither shot seems to have exited the body so I will be able to retrieve them both upon autopsy."
"Check out that tattoo on his arm," Jane said as she pointed to the image inked into his skin, "Gang symbols. Possibly a gang related shooting?"
"Korsak is speaking with the man that found the body. I overheard him mention things about gang related violence in the area." Maura said as she closed her bag and began to stand up.
Jane looked over her shoulder to find Korsak speaking with the witness but what she saw first was a dark blue car drive by the alley way. As if in slow motion, she saw the man hanging out the passenger side window draw a gun and point it towards the alley. Her instincts kicking in she screamed,
"GUN! DOWN! EVERYBODY DOWN!"
Gun fire began to ring through the alley. Everyone threw themselves on the ground in hopes of staying alive. Without thinking twice, Jane tackled Maura to the ground, her body shielding the smaller woman's from the onslaught of bullets. The noise stopped almost as quickly as it started. Patrolmen hopped on radios and into cop cars to chase down the shooters.
The lanky detective stood up and brushed herself off quickly before helping the ME to her feet. The honey blonde began to assess the damage that was done to her clothes after being thrown to the grown. She was certain that her skirt and blazer were ruined but it was a small price to pay for living through a drive by shooting.
"Thanks for seeing my back." Maura said as she brushed some dirt from Jane's cheek.
Jane chuckled, "Watching your back Maura. Watching." She brushed a quick kiss to the back of her girlfriend's hand. "Always."
Hope you liked it! Any other requests?
