The Case - Chapter Ten (THE FINALE)

Chapter Ten

Raphael vs Raymond

Ralph was trained to do stuff like this. He could see Raymond ahead of him. The wind rushed past his face, as he sprinted along the deserted area in hot pursuit. Raymond wasn't as fast, and knew he was done for.

He had lost his weapon when he jumped through the window, and had a nasty cut on his left thigh. All he had was a knife stuck in his right boot. Ralph was so close when Raymond tumbled over, feigning fatigue.

The Case - Chapter Nine

Chapter Nine:

8:00pm Day 3

"Those morons should've been back by now", said Jones.

He knew something was wrong.

Jake had called the DA and told him about their plan. Of course, Jones yelled at him for half the time the conversation lasted, but later agreed to help him. It was their secret, even Chris didn't know about this.

Of course Jake didn't want to risk another slap. Something was wrong, and he felt it in his bones. Jake gave him a tracking device and bugged the guys secretly so that they could find the hide-out. The gang wouldn't be expecting them since no one knows where they stay.

The Case - Chapter Eight

Chapter Eight

It had been thirty-six hours since Jasmine was kidnapped.

They ran before the police came close. They knew they had a lot of questions to answer but time was running out.

Desperate times had called for desperate measures. They had to trust someone.

"I don't believe him", Connor said.

"Why?", asked Jake.

"Why would he tell you who the mole is? It's basic strategy to divide the police department so that more crimes can happen, they can kill the two of you and lock up the DA at once ... it's simple logic"

"Wow... I never thought of that", said Chris.

"You never think of anything you morons. Why would you go on a suicide mission? Do you think this is a movie?"

The Case - Chapter Seven

Chapter Seven:

"My baby!", Jake cried, as he knelt near the useless scrap of metal that used to be his car.

Chris looked around to see if any of the girls were hurt. Jasmine had a little bruise from

the fall, but Susan was already up on her feet.

"Yup, definitely a gymnast", Chris mused.

The Case - Chapter Six

Chapter Six:

"We have to get out of here, there's no time to explain", the girl said.

"So what's your name, Goldilocks?", asked Jake, noticing her blonde hair.

"I assume that would be 'logical' for you to ask, since you look like a bear", Chris said to his friend.

The Case - Chapter Five

Chapter Five:

"I want the three of you to get your knees to the ground, right here in the middle", the thug said.

"That's a little too specific don't you think?", Chris said.

One of them slapped him across the face, and he fell down.

"Argh!... Now I know how Jake feels!"

"Citizens of Washington, you're about to witness what we do to cops that kill one of our own", said one of the thugs.

The Case - Chapter Four

Chapter Four:

Chris couldn't believe it.

Peter was dead. His only brother was dead. The burial was quick... a few friends and well-wishers came. Some officers also came to pay their respects.

Chris sat with his parents, who were too shocked to say anything. He watched as his mother wept, and tried to avoid his father's eyes. No one said a word, and just the priest's voice was heard.

The Case - Chapter Three

Chapter Three:

Chris shut the door almost as quickly as he opened it. They both heard the front door burst open, and they were in the kitchen. Bullets flew everywhere, ricocheting all over the place.

"Uhm ... open the drawers", Chris stammered, while crouching.

"We're in a freaking kitchen, be damn specific!", Jake yelled.

"The one near the dish washer, I keep two tranq guns there".

"Why the hell do you keep guns where you cook", Jake said, while handing him one.

"Just shut up and let's go"

The Case - Chapter Two

Chapter Two:

The leader's body laid lifeless on the ground, and in an instant the other three turned around with their weapons facing the streets, backing Chris and Jake.

They both lunged at two of the thugs, simultaneously locking each into a sleeper hold, knocking them out cold and dispossessing them of their guns. One was left staring in utter confusion. Chris aimed his gun and took the safety off.

"Seems the tables have turned my dear friend", Chris said.

"...I think he just peed his pants", said Jake.

The Case - Chapter One

Chapter One:

"Mehn!! ...I ain't never seen a dull day like this, Chris" said officer Jake.

"Hand me that gun" said officer Chris.

"You wanna shoot yourself, right?"

"You know me so well".

Chris and Jake had been best friends since kindergarten, and even their parents still saw each other in their old ages. They had both entered the Police Academy at the Washington district - and after two years of cleaning guns and polishing shoes of D.A.'s, they got into the force, and had been looking for some "real action" ever since.
