Thread: Golden Shields ( Katy1008 & CrimsonMaster )

While it was true that Tom's report would be longer since his actions ended the shootout, Evie would have to explain what happened to their unmarked police car in her report. Lt. Finn wouldn't be happy that Evie damaged an unmarked car, but Tom was sure that Evie would get a metal for pulling Officer Collins out of danger. Before leaving once their shift was over, Tom commended Evie on her quick actions. Evie had done just what Tom would have done if he had thought about it. She was very much like her old man, but in a girl's body. This fact did make Tom happy since he was having thoughts about his partner. Relationships between partners is frowned upon by the department. So if partners do find themselves growing closer then normal. They must keep it well hidden from those around them. Even if Evie didn't notice it, she was quite pretty. Her lean athletic body was quite striking when she was dressed in a bikini. Tom returned to his apartment which was a houseboat sitting in King Harbor Marina near Redondo Beach. This had been Tom's home since his wife died in an auto accident 6 years ago. She was a nurse who was coming home late one night. A drunk driver who ran a red light after leaving a party and smashed right into her head on. She was dead at the scene and the drunk driver didn't even get a scratch. Tom sold the home they once shared and moved into the houseboat which he bought from a friend. After stepping on to the boat, Tom went down below. He remove his sports coat and tossed it onto the couch. Tom walked over to his refrigerator opening then pulled out a bottle of beer. He took a long drink after twisting off the top. Tom then sat down into his reclining chair. He set the beer down on a stand which was beside his chair. Tom removed his tie and unbuttoned his shirt. He removed his pistol and laid it on the same stand which his beer was sitting on. Tom picked up the remote for his tv and turned it on. He sat watching the news while drinking his beer. The next day, Tom had his meeting with the Police Departments new psychiatrist......Doctor Arthur Bolin. Doctor Bolin was a good friend of Lt. Finn who helped his friend get the job as department psychiatrist. The good Doctor had a checkered past which would have raised some questions about his ability to hold the position of department psychiatrist if anyone had bothered to do a background check on him. But Lt. Finn pushed the paperwork through and didn't bother checking up on his new friend. Bolin's wife who lived in Arizona could tell the police some stories about her former husband's temper and how their marriage ended badly. The meeting didn't go well between Tom and Doctor Bolin. Bolin felt that Tom was playing hero and trying to save the city to make up for his father's criminal past. Tom's father had been a major underworld figure when Tom was a kid. But Tom didn't follow his father and his father couldn't have been happier that his son didn't. Tom's father was in the front row on the day Tom graduated from the Police Academy. Very much the proud father who just happened to be an underworld boss. Doctor Bolin played Tom up to be a one man army looking to right the wrongs caused by his father. Bolin was working hand in hand with Lt. Finn to get Tom fired from the department, but Bolin couldn't do that.....not from only one meeting. The department said that an Officer or Detective must have three meetings before by declared unfit for duty. So two more meetings would be needed before Tom could be stripped of his badge. Tom left the meeting with an uneasy feeling. It wasn't that Bolin was trying to set him up for a fall that was bothering him. It was the look in Bolin's eyes that made Tom feel uneasy. Bolin's eyes had an almost crazed look too them when Tom challenged him on how Tom did his job. There was something very off about Doctor Bolin and Tom just wasn't sure what that was. The rest of the work week was a normal one, well as normal as it can be with Tom Reed as your partner. Tom Evie were in 3 more shootouts during their week. One took place at a liquor store where Evie showed off her shooting skills by nailing two of the three suspects who were trying to slip out the backdoor, Tom took out the third suspect. One was dead at the scene, the other two were sent to the hospital before going to jail. Evie had done her best during the search for unsolved murders like the one they were working on. But sadly there was no match anywhere in the country. Soon the new work week had started and with that came the knowledge that Tuesday night was coming quickly. Tuesday night was the night that the killer stalked the streets along Hollywood Boulevard. At this point there was no choice, they had to stakeout the area. Lt. Tamura had a meeting with Tom Evie on Monday before they went home for the evening. Lesley asked Evie if she wouldn't mind dressing up as a hooker and going undercover. Tom would wait in the car not far from where Evie would be working on the street. Evie would be dressed in sexy clothes and would wear a blonde wig in the hopes of trapping the killer. Jenny had already agreed to help and she would work with Evie. Another girl who was also a blonde would be there as well. Her name was Amber and she had just started to work with Jenny along the boulevard. Before the workday ended bad news hit the department hard. Officer Ed Connors died from his gun shot wounds. He left behind a wife and two kids, one a girl who was 10 and her brother who was 8. The wake would be held at the family's home on Wednesday afternoon and all Officers Detectives from the Central Station were requested to be there at some point during their shift. Monday soon came to an end and Tuesday morning was here. The day passed quickly and soon it was time for Evie to get dressed. She would hit the streets joining Jenny Amber while Tom listened in and watched. Evie would wear a wire under her outfit so Tom could hear when she needed help. Tom made sure that they had proper backup for this stakeout. Lesley let the four patrol cars in the area know about the undercover operation which was going on. Adam 19, 22 and 25 were standing by along with X-Ray 17 which was the extra patrol unit on duty that night. Tom waited at his desk while Evie was gone getting dressed. Another female detective who worked Vice helped Evie pick out an outfit that would be hot. It would certainly show off Evie's assets and would turn heads when Evie walked out of the locker room.
