One Day Closer // SRU

Chapter 35: Risking it all Pt. 1

  When Eddie yells at you^

  I walked into Huntington.
"Milo."
"Room 318." He says.
"Thanks." I walked down the hall to a big door and opened it.
"How we doing?" I ask Kelley.
"He is really lucky to not have graphs. But he's slowly healing. Just be careful."
"Thanks Kelley."
"We really miss you."
"I really miss you guys too." She smiled and walked out.
"Michelangelo Scarlatti." I read his chart.
"My mother mad high hopes." He says.
"Well you definitely proved that."
"No." He shakes his head.
"What do you mean no?"
"My parents don't like my job. They are afraid I'm not gonna come home one day. Like Lou."
"But we do it for LA. And to keep the peace."
"I've tried to explain. They just don't want to hear it."
"If this jobs makes you happy you do it."
"What I live by."
"Good."
"Aren't you on call?"
"Yeah the office is pretty boring right now."
"How is Sadie?"
"She's doing really good. Missing her uncle." He laughed.
"We really are family."
"We really are." I nodded.

  "What we got Winnie?" Sarge asks.
"Your girl is Cierra Mark. She is clean. No record of anything."
"Well then why were we called?"
"She has taken over the local mall. Shoplifting everything she can get her hands on and she has 2 other girls with her but we don't have names yet. They are armed and dangerous."
"We got a age?"
"Mark is 17, I imagine the other girls are around that."
"Young idiots." Sam says. I laughed. He looked at me.
"What?"
"Getting bigger."
"Do not point that out again unless your want a bloody nose and black eye." I pointed my finger at him.
"Ok ok." He laughed.
"Easy Sam she's our only girl right now."
"Can you believe they are getting married next week?" Slater asks.
"No." Eddie says. I smiled. When we arrived we unloaded the car. I swung my gun over.
"Jay your skill today." Sarge says.
"Eyes and ears in it." He says. Sarge smiles.
"I like this guy." He says. Two shits were fired through the roof.
"Shots fired! Shots fired!" Sam yells. We ducked.
"Jay!" Sarge yells.
"Git it."
"Alright they are in the top floor at... Is that bath and body works?"
"Yeah." Jay says.
"Ok Faye and Sam with Eddie enter through the south doors and be stealth."
"Got it."
"What about me?" Slater asks.
"Your gonna stay with me." Sam laughed. I knew exactly what we was thinking. We entered through the doors and quietly listened.
"If you can j want you to all go from behind and slam them to the ground." Sarge says.
"That's brutal." Sam says.
"Quick and easy I want to go home." Sarge says.
"Alright." I whispered. We hear laughing. Sam motioned his hands to Eddie and I. He said one at a time up the stairs. Eddie and I nodded. I tip toed up the stairs. At the top Eddie followed then Sam. We walked towards the laughter. Sure enough their backs were turned to us.
"3. 2. 1." Eddie mouthed.
"SRU!" We yelled as we slammed them to the ground.
"Hey!" Yelled.
"Subjects apprehended." Eddie says.
"Runner!" I yell.
"Go get her I this one." Sam says.
"Sarge we got a another girl on the run."
"Go get her." He says.
"I want to see a body slam." Sam says.
"Try my best." I smirked.
"Faye be carful." Slater says.
"I'm pregnant not disabled."
"Just be carful."
"I know." I ran out the doors and chased her. 
"SRU STOP!" I yelled. She grinned and kept running.
"HONEY OLEASE STOP!" I yelled.
"I DIDNT DO IT!" She Screamed.
"Do you want a pregnant lady to body slam you?" We got to the top of a tower.
"Stop." She said when I cornered her. I stopped.
"Look we can do this the easy way or the hard way."
"I didn't break in there." She said.
"I believe you."
"Faye." Jay says.
"Look at the footage." I say.
"Who are you talking to?" She asked.
"My friend. He's in the truck down there."
"Ok just go away."
"I can't do that."
"You don't understand! Those girls are evil." She started crying.
"Watch out for a suicide attempt." Sam says.
"What's your name?"
"Abbie."
"Abbie why don't we walk to the ambulance you have some scrapes."
"No." She started backing up.
"Faye." Eddie says.
"I'm gonna put my gun down." I say.
"Do not go offline." Slater says.
"Ok, I'm not gonna hurt you."
"Just go away. I need out."
"No no no. Abbie don't do this."
"Why should I trust you?"
"My name is Faye Dylan. I'm on the SRU. Team one. Just 2 years ago I was a RN at Huntington. I worked my butt off to be here because I wanted to save lives and I want to save yours. You just need to let me."
"I don't want saving."
"Abbie what about your family?"
"I don't have family."
"Me either."
"Good connection." Sarge says.
"You want to tell me about out back there?" I ask.
"No." She shook her head and put a foot around the railing.
"Abbie!" I yelled.
"Anchor yourself." Sam says. I anchored my grapple.
"I told you to leave me alone."
"Abbie I do to want you to do this. Yes I've only known you a couple minutes but I already like you and I care about you. Why don't I take you home?"
"I don't have a home." Sam came up behind me.
"Who is he?!" She asked.
"That's Sam. He's my buddy."
"Hi." Sam waved.
"Get out of here!" She put both feet over the railing.
"Calm it down." Eddie says. I walked over with her and slid my legs over.
"Faye!" Slater yelled.
"I got his." I say.
"You know what the worst part is?" I ask her.
"What?"
"They you might not die." She looked at me.
"You could fall and drop and not die." I repeat. She just looked down.
"I've seen this before. It's the scariest thing in the world. And I've been shot."
"Where?" She asked.
"Here." I pointed to my leg.
"That's pretty legit."
"Abbie don't do it."
"But i have to."she stared to jump. I launched after her.
