New Case

Jenna Tyler

I woke up to my phone ringing at three in the morning. I groaned and sat up, grabbing my phone, and i flipped it open and said, "hello?" "hey, you need to come down here right now, " said my boss, Marco.

I groaned, and he said, "this is the biggest case we have ever taken on, and we need all hands on board for it." I got out of the bed and said, "I'll be there soon. Talk to you soon." I hung up, and i ran to my closet and pulled out a red v-neck, dark jeans,and a black jacket.

I quickly changed out of my nightdress, and i grabbed my bag, briefcase, car-keys, and my phone, and i ran out to my car and jumped inside, shoving the keys in the ignition. I started the car, and i drove down the road to the agency. I hopped out of the car, and i grabbed my stuff and went inside to the front desk and said, "hey, Ernie."

He waved at me, and i went inside to Marco's room and saw him, Vanessa, Emily, and Shawn. I sat down next to Vanessa, and Marco said, "glad that we are all here. I have a new case for all of you. A newlywed couple was murdered last weekend, a week into their honeymoon. Their throats were cut, and they had bruises from fighting back and being beaten."

I pulled out my paper, and i began to take notes. "They were killed in the Mable hotel, and i want Vanessa and Jenna to go and scope it for evidence. Emily, i need you on forensics, and Shawn, i need you to help Dr. Roberts with the Autopsy." We all nodded, and i stood up and said, "ready to go?"

Vanessa nodded, and i grabbed my stuff and walked out of the room with her. I walked out to the car, and she said, "what do you think happened?"

I looked at her and said, "We'll know when we reach the end of the case." She nodded, and we hopped into the car. I started it up, and i drove down to the hotel and parked in front. I grabbed all of my stuff, and i went up to the door and waited for Vanessa. When she came up to the door, I opened it and went inside and saw a cop waiting.

I walked with Vanessa and the cop to the blocked-off room, and i stepped inside and instantly smelled the blood. I breathed through my mouth, and i stepped further inside and saw the blood on the floor and walls.

I set my tools down on the floor, and i opened the case and pulled out a small duster. I dusted on the doorknob, counters, and walls, and i pulled up a few sets of fingerprints. I put them in a bag, and i swabbed each blood stain and put the swabs in separate tubes.
Vanessa bagged a small knife, swabbed it, and dusted for fingerprints, and i said, "look at how the blood is smeared."

It was smeared in an arc, and it suddenly stopped in a straight line on the wall. I went over to it, and i tapped on the wall until i heard a deep thump. I pulled out a small knife, and i cut into the wall and pulled out a pair of gloves, a mask, and a blood-spattered jacket.

I quickly put them in a box, and i heard a gunshot. I hid with my clues in a bathroom. I heard Vanessa scream, and i burst out of the bathroom and saw a masked man standing over her body.

I pulled out my gun, and i said, "put your hands in the air, and drop the gun!" He turned around, and i saw him aim his gun at me. I shot him in the arm, and he dropped the gun and jumped out of the window. I ran to the window, and i saw a blue truck drive away, speeding.

I got the license plate number, and i turned to Vanessa and knelled next to her. I saw blood seep into the carpet, and i pulled out my walkies-talkie and quickly said, "officer down! Request and ambulance at Mable hotel, there is an officer shot that requires assistance."

I heard a conformation, and i put it back in my belt and said, "Vanessa, i need you to listen to me. Stay still, and i will try to slow the bleeding. You are going to make it through this!"

I ripped a strip from my shirt, and i wrapped it around her shoulder and pressed, slowing the red stain. I tied it, and she said, "Jenna, don't worry about me."

I shook my head and softly said, "you are my partner, and partners stay together and help each other. Vanessa, just stay still!" I heard an ambulance, and two men ran up with a stretcher and lifted her onto it. I ran with them to the elevator, and i watched as they lifted her into the ambulance and shut the doors, driving her to the hospital.

The Hunt

Jenna

I loaded all the evidence into the back of my car, and i got into it and turned the keys. It tarted up, and i screamed as the front of the car exploded into flames. I threw the door open, and i stumbled out and grabbed my stuff and the evidence.

I felt smoke sear my lungs, and i watched as my car burned. I coughed, and i pulled out my walkies-talkie and said, "Marco, i need your help. Please come to the hotel as fast as you can. Vanessa is in the hospital, and my car is on fire. I need your help."

I coughed again, and Marco said, "I'll be right there, Jenna. Just stay put and i will be there as fast as i can."

I put it back in my belt, and i put everything in a pile as a crowd gathered. A fire-truck came, and Marco drove up when they left and jumped out of the car. I coughed again, and i said, "thank you for picking me up. I don't know what happened. I started my car, and it was suddenly on fire."

He helped me put the clues and stuff in his car, and i climbed in the passenger seat and sat down as he climbed into the driver's side and started the car. I slightly winced as the engine roared, and he gently grabbed my hand and drove to the agency. I pulled everything inside to his office, and i put everything onto the table and sorted it.

Marco came in and said, "Jenna, are you okay?" I nodded, and i said, "I have to solve this case. I won't lose this case." I put the forensic stuff into a box and said, "I am going to take this stuff to Emily, and then i will come back and help you with everything else."

He nodded, and i grabbed the box and went to Forensics. Emily looked up when i came in, and i said, "I had an accident at the crime-scene, but here are the forensic clues from the crime-scene. Tell me when you find something, okay?"

She nodded, and i walked back to Marco's room and went inside to see him going through the evidence. I sat next to him, and he said, "hey, did you get anything else?" I went through everything, and i said, "there was a knife at the crime-scene. I remember putting it in the box, but then the shooting came. Marco, I have to go back and look for it!"

Sniper Attack

Jenna

He shook his head and grabbed my hand, and i said, "Marco, Vanessa got shot for that evidence, and i am not going to let it get taken and destroyed!"

He stood up and said, "I am not going to let you get shot!" I pulled my hand from his and said, "what does it affect with you if i do get shot? You always send me away like i am expendable, and so i am going to do my job, whether you like it or not."

I grabbed my stuff, and he grabbed me and pressed his lips to mine. I froze in surprise, and i pulled away from him and ran out of the door. I ran through the hallways, and i went outside and heard a gunshot. A bullet sank into my stomach, and i gave a soft gasp and stumbled slightly.

I saw a sniper on a building, and i pulled out my gun and shot him while he was reloading. I coughed, and i heard Marco run outside. I turned to him, and he ran forward and caught me as i fell. I shakily stood up, and i said, "I'm fine. I need to go get that evidence!" I winced as blood stained my shirt, and he said, "you won't make it halfway to the hotel before you pass out from blood-loss."

I sighed, and he pulled out his phone and said, "I need an ambulance at the downtown Fisher precinct! I have an officer down, and i need to get some help for her!" He gently picked me up, ad i saw Emily run out of the building. I weakly sat up and said, "Emily, i need you to take the evidence inside and go out of the building with friends, and never go out alone! Tell everyone to be careful!"

She nodded, and i slumped against Marco as an ambulance screamed down the road and stopped in front of us. I was loaded into the back, and Marco sat next to me and said, "just hang on, Jenna. Just hang on." A mask was put over my mouth, and i coughed and heard the monitor go off.

I coughed harder, and blood spattered from my mouth and onto the mask, staining it red. Marco gripped my hand as the paramedics shocked my heart, and the monitor went back to normal. We soon reached the hospital, and i was wheeled into surgery.

I woke up a few hours later, and i saw Marco sitting in a chair next to the bed. I weakly sat up, and he pushed me back down and said, "don't get up or the stitches will rip open. Jenna, you will be out of here in a couple of days."

I shook my head and said, "I need to solve the case! Vanessa is counting on me!" I winced as blood stained the bandages, and i laid down and felt tears run down my face. Marco gently brushed them off, and he said, "go to sleep, Jenna. You will be out of here in a couple of days, and then you can start the case again."

I sighed, and i fell asleep and waited for the next few days.

The Truth

Jenna

I got out of the hospital a week later, and i automatically went back to work. I visited the crime-scene, and i found the knife hidden in the hole in the wall.

I had Emily dust it for prints and test the blood, and a match came back on a hair we found inside the mask. It belonged to a man named Charles Martino, and i hunted him down and arrested him. I got some answers out of him, and he said, "I am not alone in this. My boss is till out there watching you, waiting to strike."

I put him back in his cell, and i went past Marco's office and saw him going through some papers. He looked up at me, and i looked away and went to my office. I put everything up on my desk, and the door opened. Marco walked in, and he said, "what's wrong? You have been avoiding me all day."

I looked down at my papers and said, "I can't be with you, Marco. There is no love in this agency that i am willing to sacrifice. I am being hunted by this killer, and i will stop him and watch him get the death sentence. I'm sorry."

He held out a small packet, and i gently took it while he said, "the man told me that this was his boss, and his truth-test checked out positive."

I opened it, and i read the file and said, "this can't be the killer." My voice dropped to a whisper, and he said, "do you know him?" I nodded, and i said, "this is my brother, Dylan Tyler. Marco, i haven't seen him in over ten years." A tear ran down my cheek, and i said, "I know where he lives."

I grabbed all of my stuff, and i said, ''I am going to need your help, but don't shoot him if he aims a gun at me. There has to be a reason he did this." I put my bullet-poof vest on, and I said, "will you come with me?" He nodded, and i watched as he put on a vest and put on his belt.

I walked with him to his car, and i told him the address and said, "we need to hurry. He is probably going to hurt someone else if we don't." He drove to the house, and i ran to the front door and pulled out my gun. I banged on the front door, and i looked back at Marco and said, "go to the back and hold him there if he tries to escape."

Marco ran to the back, and i said, "police! Open the door or we will be forced to kick it in!" I heard a gunshot from inside, and i kicked the door open and saw my brother shoot at Marco again. I saw him miss, and I said, "put the gun on the ground and put your hands behind your head!"

He ignored me, and i shot his hand and forced him to drop the gun. He cried out in pain, and i grabbed his arms and held them behind his back. He squirmed, and i said, "Dylan, it's over. I don't want to hurt you, but you have left me no choice."

I felt him go still, and he said, "Jenna, you don't understand. The husband has been trying to kill me for years, and i had to stop him before he went after you." I gently pulled him to the door, and i put my vest over him and said, "your minion shot me and my partner, and then you tried to shoot my boss! Dylan, you've changed."

He went still, and i put him in the back of the car and sat next to him. Marco drove us to the precinct, and i put Dylan in a cell and said, "your trial is tomorrow at noon. Tell the judge what happened, and i will try to help you as much as i can."

He nodded, and he said, "Jenna, i never meant for you to get hurt. I am so sorry." I nodded and said, "see you tomorrow, Dylan."

Then i went to my office and put the case in the Solved file.

Solved

Jenna

Dylan's trial went by faster than i thought, and he got ten years in prison with bail. Marco tried to get closer to me, but i said, "Marco, i have too much to deal with right now."

I put all the evidence from the crime in the locker, and i went to Marco one day and said, "I'm leaving the agency."

His eyes widened, and i said, "Marco, i have hurt too many people, and i don't want to ever have a relationship in fear that my lover would get hurt or killed." He gently grabbed my hands, and he said, "please stay here and work with me, Jenna. I don't care what happens, but i love you and i want to stay with you."

A tear ran down my cheek, and i said, "Marco, i--" I broke off as he knelled in front of me and pulled out a box. He opened it, and i saw the ring glitter as he said, "Jenna Taylor, will you do me the honor of marrying me?"

I covered my mouth with my hand, and i said, ''Marco, i do." He smiled, and i rapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tight. Tears ran down my face, and i said, "Marco, i love you." He wrapped his arms around my waist, and he said, "I love you too, Jenna."
