Deputy Salena Bishop - Early Days
Salena's time in the city started with working at the Cluckin' Bell as a regular ol' employee, where she and her friend Lana Gray worked for a few days to earn some liveable wage. This was all while they were trying to get noticed for the cadet program.
A few days later, Salena was hired as a deputy following her friend Lana, who had stepped into the force a short time before her. She hit the ground running, cleaning the city from thieves and questionable grave robbing. From high-speed chases to tow truck drivers dumping bank trucks in The Land Act Dam up in the Tataviam Mountains, which resulted in multiple officers hurt and a man by the name of Adam "Thunder" Fart losing his life. Like her father before her, she got a hold of her first corrupted mayor. A man by the name of Richard Breaker. Who rammed the back of her squad car, then shortly after she got a 911 call, where the caller, a drug dealer, stated that the Mayor stole drugs off him. Salena then asked the Mayor if she could do a lawful search, which he complied. LOW AND BEHOLD, the drugs were indeed on him. She then processed to arrest the mayor for possession, who tried to bribe her with a position as Warden at the Bolingbroke Penitentiary, if she just forgot about the whole thing.
After a long shift with fellow deputy Edward Maddox, most arrests were alright, but a few things (hopefully not fleas) were biting at this young chihuahua. She got hurt a few times throughout her time with the Sheriff's Department, which caused them to lose a man by the name of "Hardmeat." After this incident, she decided it would be best to trek out on her own and venture out on her path, not follow her father's footsteps. After talks with police officers who work for the LSPD, she decided to transfer over.
After finally getting off shift, she wanted to start making some roots in Los Santos and thought it might be a good idea to purchase the home that currently resides on the land where her father's home was, but time will tell.
Officer Salena Bishop - Early Days
Salena and Edward Maddox continued to patrol together, where the types of scenes varied from active shootings, bank robberies, and of course… grave robbing. As their shifts became longer, it seemed that Maddox started to find feelings for his partner, whereas Bishop, not having the best role models, is quite the deer in the headlights and often doesn't understand how or why people act the way they do around her. The same issues are happening with Skylar Quinn, an EMT who often helps out on scenes and occasionally wants to take her to the movies since she hasn't seen many, if any.
On the evening of the 18th, Bishop had quite a long patrol, where she fell asleep at the Hill Valley Church Cemetery. After chasing down graveyard robbers, they believed it was a brilliant idea to attempt it next to an active crime scene. Maddox tracked her down, and they both headed back to his apartment to watch Terminator 2, Maddox's favorite movie. During this time, he attempted to tell Sally that he wanted her to be his girlfriend by telling her, "I want to be within proximity of you at all times." Sally spoke to him about how she enjoyed their time together and that she had never had a brother. She called Lana Gray after Maddox went to bed to discuss her situation and how confusing it was. During this time, the two of them went out on an active scene to talk while Sally ran into Mayor Breaker, who, while on the phone with someone named John, suddenly was interested in getting Sally's full name and badge number. He gave the person a complete description of her. There were entirely a few other units that overheard this.
Earlier that morning, Mayor Breaker requested every officer in the city to meet at the Vespucci Police Station. This was for a mayoral address for a Public apology to Officer Salena Bishop because she had to arrest him earlier in the week. The mayor and countless other officers walked from the Police Station to the Korean Pavilion down in the park. Richard Breaker stood in front of everyone, addressing how he was mistaken and wanting to look towards the future with the help of the LSPD and LSSD. He asked Salena Bishop to step up so he could give her an apologetic hug for his wrongdoing and how she was responsible and upheld the law. Moments after his hug, three shots ran out and struck Salena down; the mayor was quick to speak out, stating that she saved his life! A counter-sniper took down the shooter, Malcolm Nolan. The sniper was no other than John F. Television Jr. Sally was rushed to the hospital and was said to be stabilized by the doctors of the Mount Zonah Medical Center. She was placed on a 24-hour hold in the UCI, comatose.
A considerable investigation was held in the results of the shooting of Salena Bishop that involved most, if not all, the police department and sheriff's department taking down the Mayor and JFT. Richard Breaker was suspended from his Mayor of Los Santos term due to JFT JR. He stated that the mayor hired him to take out Salena.
Since she's been shot, she's been struggling with her time alone since it's been the holiday season, and she's without her mom. Her father left on Christmas day, stating that he had a job to do.
As the days approached closer to Christmas, Sally believed that she wasn't necessary and didn't need anyone, but after a 'not a date' time with Tinker, She started to feel feelings that she hadn't had with others, more than butterflies. Afterward, she had a long talk with Skylar Quinn, where she finally expressed her feelings for Sally, but it was a little too late due to Sally's feelings towards Tinker. Sally expressed that she would kill Skylar, who truly cares for her and would do anything to make her happy, but her feelings have changed.
She spoke with some friends about buying her the house that resists on the land from her dad's old house and a strange business named Bishop's WTF. Throughout Christmas, Bishop kept her head down and focused on the job, married to the job; that's what her dad always said.
While out on patrol with Sloan Morgan, the two of them talked. Salena was still determining if Tinker had spoken to her already about their relationship; sadly, more information than what Sally would have liked came out. According to Sloan, she and Tinker have been together and have been staying at each other's places, and they were 'boyfriend and girlfriend.' This upset Sally, and Sloan took her aside and spoke of how they were on duty and that she was an FTO and needed to compose herself. She respects her that they don't need to talk about it while on duty and that you don't bring your off-duty life to your on-duty life.
Salena ended up going off-duty and picked up her first beer ever, and it was a downhill fast where she found herself up in Sandy, and ended finding herself back at her father's old property. Being new to the issues she's facing, she went to find somewhere that felt like home. She ended up hiding a note that she had written to her father under the foundation of the porch. 
"Dear Dad...
I really wish you were here right now. I know I wouldn't have my head so far up my own ass if you were here. You were the thing that grounded me. You always gave the best advice. "Postal vans are ALWAYS hiding meth Sals, ALWAYS." I knew dad... I wish you or mom were here with me to show me what I need to do. I'm just going to do what I think nees to be done. Things aren't okay right now. Nut they will be... they have to be. I don't know if I can handle the way I felt when mom died agian. Anyways... I'll come write to you more and leave notes for you under the porch... I hope you one day get to them... I love you dad. 
-Sals
She found herself off the coast of Alamo Sea beach; unbeknownst to her reasoning, she ended up calling Skylar to help her understand this sinking feeling like she was stabbed in the gut. By the time Skylar got to her, she had already drunk quite a bit, and she was found lying in the water at the end of the sandbar. Sally was in emotional distress, where she was confused, hurt, and just wanted something. She spoke about how her mother was gone and that she drank herself into the grave from a broken heart, her father left at 14, and the person who she thought would be suitable for her lied to her and made her the other woman. The two had an emotional time while on the beach. Sally ended up passing out, hitting her head on the pavement, and Skylar ran her to the hospital as quickly as she could, trying to keep her composed. Once at the hospital, the Doctors at Sandy Shores Medical Center had to pump her stomach looked after her and suggested that she stay overnight in the ICU, but Skylar said she'd watch after her.
The two went up to a small spot overlooking Paleto Bay to share everything that happened; during this time, she called Sloan, asking if she felt saddened as well. Sloan ended up showing with Tinker to talk, and, according to Sloan, he wanted to apologize. Skylar spoke with Tinker while Sloan and Sally talked; it was unknown what Skylar told Tinker. Skylar and Sally ended up driving. Of course, that's what a Bishop does… avoid the problem and work. She started to think it was best to transfer back to the Los Santos Sheriff's Department due to Sloan and Tinker being in the LSPD. She's currently hurting too much to be around them, and being that they are both supervisors, it might be best. So, from there, she went back on duty to find a dog that helped calm her down from the rollercoaster of a day, only to be stolen by Edward Maddox. She did start to slip as things spiralled, where she had her first cigarette and continued to drink throughout her shift.
Later in the evening, on the same day, Sally was shot in the neck and back while responding to a series of calls from Tequi-la-la—two armed criminals from the Marabunta Grande gang. Heather Ashford was the first on the scene and quickly started emergency treatment while waiting for EMS. Sally was sent to Mount Zonah Medical Center for emergency treatment and subsequent surgery. (Twice in One day.) This marked the second time Skylar Quinn saved Sally's life in a single day. The doctors requested that she rest her voice and take it easy for the rest of the night and into the next day. For the remaining time, she had to write on a notepad to give fellow officers information needed to find the shooters.
Married to the Job
The NEXT day, Malcolm Nolan and Salena went out on patrol for the first time after the two went to the meeting directed by Bob Smith to congratulate those promoted, including Sally. The two ended up staking out the graveyard since multiple calls stated graves were disturbed. During this time, Salena heard over the radio of a fellow officer asking Nolan, "Who was the third person?" insinuating that there was more than just them around; right then, she knew something was wrong and ran to his location. Only to hear a shot from a sniper rifle ring out and return gunfire. Sally shot down the second assailant. Nolan was quick to informed him that two individuals robbed him of his police issues items but left him his sniper. After processing their 95s, Salena was informed after running ballistic that the gun that the man returned fire with was indeed Hot and was used during her shooting the night before. The same gentlemen from the Marabunta Grande shot at both of them. They were charged with both crimes, all while Nolan and Bishop practically threw the book at them.
A few days after Christmas, Tinker and Salena started to patrol with each other more and more, when he wasn't taken away for his expertise for things throughout the city. The two of them ended up, going on a series of dates that lasted the entire day, each showing each other their favorite places and little hide-a-way. The night ended at the Sisyphus Theatre, where Tinker encouraged Salena to sing to an empty stadium, with an audience of one. That next day, it seemed like a normal start to Sally's day, an average patrol full of grave robbers, carjackers and such. Skylar called Sally in tears, wanting her to… Well, not sure, Neither one of the did. She asked her to come to Sandy Shores Medical Center. Once she arrived, she found Skylar hiding in the storage closet of the ambulance bay. Skylar spoke to her about how her "Shakiras" were out of line and that her life was out of focus. After Sally sat down with her, to helped to calm her down a bit while Skylar deflected her problems and asked "Why Sally wanted to please her dad so much?" And her response was that, "If she does enough, he'll come back." her reasoning was that if she was busy with work too, her dad would find out and would give her the time of day. This was the first time Skylar has seen Sally since the day that she had almost died, twice… so she was grateful that she was alive. Skylar spoke of being lost, Skylar finally spoke out about Nova and her feelings towards her. She also spoke about how she may have found her aunt's killer, which was a lot to unpack. Sally knew that Skylar's mind was going a mile a minute, and she doesn't often open up about her emotions to many, but Sally is different. Skylar started throwing out Hypotheticals, and spoke of how her family treated her poorly for over 20 years, and her aunt, who was a cop, the only one who cared for her. Skylar spoke about how she loves Nova, but she tends to treat her like 'shit' but she still cares for her. Sally compared Nova and Maddox on how they both care but tend to treat you like shit in the process, and if they treat you poorly, they don't truly care. Skylar spoke how she needed her person, and that Sally was her bestie. Skylar slipped and said that Nova hits her, and Sally asked plainly, "If she abused her." Sally showed a side of her, a very protective side, saying it wasn't okay, she doesn't approve of how she's being treated. There were evening threats of killing if Nova hurt her in a way, a physical way that wasn't consensual. The torture that Skylar has been enduring was more mentally then physically, but she was telling Sally that she enjoyed that physical aspect but can process the how, why and believes something is truly wrong with her. Sally, wanting to help, offered food, cause that fixes everything. 
The day didn't end there, Sloan ended taking Salena aside while the two of them were up in Sandy to try to let her be aware of Saul Tinker's indiscretions that were coming to light. Salena took her advice with a grain of rice due to her believe Sloan being upset with her, and that most people coming to her were speaking of issues about Tinker prior to them being together. 
That next day, Sally and Tinker spend their time on duty on-boarding Deputy Shane Powers where they hit the ground running. Though, during their shift, a massive hiccup happened where they had an incident that involved Dick Dudley which led to both Tinker and Sally in the hospital. Sally spent the night in the ICU after a serious head trauma that led to brain surgery and Tinker's ankle twisting complete backwards. That next day, after Gray and Baker picked her up from the hospital and when the next time Tinker saw Sally, she was different. Well, not different… but something was off, her voice was seductively. Lana, Hanna, Tinker all fell head over heels for Salena and her new-found condition. After a 'fun-filled' day of the policing, Tinker and Sally had a night together, where Sally, just like her father… rolled a 20/20 where Sally lost her card. After a very interesting day before, Salena awoke to Gray and Baker becoming more of an item and the three of them went out on patrol and Lana asked if Tinker and her would like to join Baker and her at the Demolition Derby out at the Redwood Lights Track. 
During a traffic stop that involved him after leaving the graveyard, Po Tato spoke to Sally and Tinker in confidence and off the record (it wasn't he was read his rights prior to) since he doesn't know whom to trust and Salena has been trustworthy in his eyes. He warned her of two newcomers in the city by the names Luna Fox and Anastasia Moistvkostovic and that they were bad news, and lastly to be careful. 
"Some things are not as what they seem, Bishop, be very careful. I am not in control of anything that happens after this… There is a group called La Sacra, that's coming to step up infrastructure, work with unions, very dangerous people. I just have to let you know. Otherwise, better known as Mafia. I'm not exactly a nice guy myself, just to be completely honest, with both of you… If I am asked to do something, I'll have to do it. It's not something that I want to continue, but, I'm afraid that I've fallen into that path, and you can't really get out. And with my brother (Tāma) coming-- He's very much tied up in. "
During this time, there were hints of Po speaking about potentially hurting Selena, even though he didn't seem to want to. While Salena was speaking to the other two 95s, Tinker spoke to Po about how he doesn't use guns, and he said that he wasn't allowed to hurt her, and promised him that he wouldn't use a knife, or shiv… and that he was more of a 'bat guy.' 
One of the first major sting operations, where multiple officers staked out Zancudo Gran Growers because they had information about a drug operation out of Paleto Bay. This operation was being run by Sgt Lily Pond, and it resulted in a Ketamine Drug Bust that ended in a six-hour bench trial where the culprits' tried to argue that their car was stolen and drugs were placed in it while they were at the Paleto Clothing Store. 
New Year's Eve, Sally, Baker, Gray and Tinker all went to the New Years Party in Legion Square dressed as 'Bob's Angels' where they all had fun shooting fireworks and having a photoshoot. The girls were dressed up a 'Bob's Angels.' The evening ended with Tinker officially asking Sally to move in with him, and Sally asked if they could officially go public about their relationship, due to her feelings that she doesn't care if anyone knows. 
Salena had Moose Maple ended up having a tension, and a somewhat yelling match due to miscommunications during a Bench Trail, dealing with paperwork and statements. This led to the two of them having a mandatory therapy session with Dr. Quimbley Hayabusa, a few days later. During the bench trail, Sally's anxiety was shot through the roof due to her not liking public speaking, and ended up feeling overwhelmed to the point where she took it upon herself to schedule her first appointment with Dr. Quimbley Hayabusa and asked Tinker to come alone with her. 
The session was a very emotional one where Dr. Q basically sat and listened while Tinker sat beside Salena as she ranted about her issues with Moose Maple and how no one has been listening to her. She spoke about it reminded her of her mother and father fighting at times. She spoke about how her father gave her a letterman's jacket, and she had fond memories of her and her day howling, and yelling out 'Wolfpack.' She broke down trying to explain how her father left her on Christmas Eve when she was 14, and left her a pearl necklace with a note saying 'That he had to go to work and be back later, Sals.' Salena went into detail about how after her mother passed, she found a box that was hers mother who had a box of old things of her dad, including a photo of a woman that she didn't recognize with a child, saying 'Randy's first steps'. Sally assumed it was a nephew. Another Polaroid that was found was a small girl in a wonder woman outfit for Halloween. Dr. Quimbley Hayabusa mentioned how it might be a good idea to look into 25 and me to see if she could find more information about her father, since there has been no records of him anywhere in the city. 
Later that evening, Tinker and Salena had a long talk about his family and how you can be your own person without being your family. He opened up to her about his family and how he was an open book if she ever wishes to ask. The two of them exchanged words and the first 'I love you' was said, which caused Salena to go towards a small spiral where she asked for space from Tinker for a time. She couldn't function after realizing that she was in love, she started to push him away, a well-known curse in her family. Tinker gave her the space she needed.
In a heart-to-heart, Sally and Tinker, back at the Sisyphus Theatre, where Sally asked Tinker to 'go steady' she spoke about a recurring nightmare she's been having about the night before she found her mother. There were talks where, within her dream, she woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of a loud noise. There was apparently someone in the house, which confused Sally, since it would took over 2 hours to get to any store. She thought it was very odd due to their home was in a very seduced area, and she never left the property. Within the darkness of the home, there was someone in the doorway, and another figure over her mother was passed out. Sally could have sworn that she saw a needle in the person's hand, but she can't remember much about the 'dream' but when she woke up the next day, she was dead. She spoke about how the nightmare has been bothering her, due to her not wanting the nightmare to be real because if it was real, she never truly left. If it actually happened, she's more upset at her dad, not her mom. Later in the evening, she spoke to Tinker about how she had got an email from someone important she was worried about; asking if he would go with her to pick them up at the airport the next day.
Auntie Muffy Coming to Town
First time in a long time, Sally took the day off, excited to pick up Tinker to head to the bus station to pick up 'someone' at the airport. Once they arrived at the airport, she introduced her 'Auntie' Muffy Riggs. The two got into talking about how each other's lives changed. It's been about 23 years since Sally seen her last when she was 13. Sally ended up getting word from Muffy that she will be coming to town, and that she needed to be picked up from the bus station. She mentioned how Muffy stayed with them when she was a kid when she left her ex-husband, Enzo Valentino. She mentioned how her and Lionel Riggs ended up marrying, and have been together for 30 years. Tinker, Muffy, and Sally had a deep routed conversation about Sally and her past, but Muffy didn't want to overwhelm her. She did mentioned how her parents had Sally call her Aunt Muffy, instead of explaining how she was adopted by Ace.
Work Life Balance
After a long day on shift, Sally returned to Vespucci Police Station only to see Hanna Baker being way to friendly with a cadet by the name of Candice DeFitt. Amongst other things she would be hearing, she highly suggested Hanna let Lana know. This let to conversation at the Mount Zonah Medical Center. Where Sally ran up to Lana, to let her know that it, that there were some things that she had noticed that if Tinker did, she'd be upset, being the friend she was, she to ensure that Hanna spoke to her first and there was no lying. Lana and Hanna spoke, and she brushed it off, after hearing that she hugged Candice Defitt with her shirt off, among other things.
A successful drug busted happened thanks to small ground of officers and deputies lead by Lou Caruso. He and Sally went undercover to find a drug dealer who was posing as a pharmacist on the directory. This was the first time that Salena went truly undercover and it went surpisingly well. 
Weeks later, Skylar unexpectedly encountered Sally and Tinker at the DMV. Skylar's ongoing support for Sally and her wellbeing, this led to light-hearted undressing jokes. Despite Sally's initial awkwardness, Tinker humorously remarked that Skylar 'had the pass.' In a half-joking manner, Skylar suggested that she could join them if they ever wanted to add some excitement to their love life. Tinker was surprisingly supportive of the idea of bringing Skylar into the folds. Sally and Tinker had a short but sweet conversation outside the DMV, where he said she'd be able to bring Skylar, on one condition, that her heart was his. This playful proposition unexpectedly turned into a serious conversation with the two outside the DMV. Sally admitted her desire to be intimate with Skylar, a sentiment that Tinker openly supported. The trio mutually agreed to let this new dynamic unfold after the block party in honor of Jerry Callow's new road that was being unveiled that night.
At the block party, Tinker had to go to work and left Skylar and Sally to themselves amidst the festivities. While ended up leaving early for a more serene setting at the beach. Here, they shared a heartfelt conversation. Sally confessed her longstanding affection for Skylar , expressing insecurities about the bedroom. Skylar reciprocated, revealing she had harbored feelings for Sally weeks ago, but had refrained from acting on them out of respect for Sally's boundaries and considering the attention she was already receiving from many others. The night continued as they headed to Sally's and Tinker's apartment. In an unexpected twist, they encountered Alexandra Leeds in the hallway. The situation turned awkward when Sally openly mentioned their plan to engage in an intimate encounter, including Tinker. Sally didn't know the dynamic between Skylar and Leeds. After the encounter, they quickly went inside. Sally and Skylar attempted to watch When Harry Met Sally, while waiting for Tinker to return home from the block party. With Tinker's arrival, the evening unfolded into an unconventional yet consensual exploration of their relationships, marked by Tinker's presence as an observer. Their experience together was a 17/20, assuming there was some first time jitters.
The next day, the day seemed normal, the threes dynamic didn't seem to change. The three of them went about their day and went on duty. While in front of the city hall Sally ended up calling up Skylar to let her know that Baker and Leeds where both mobbing around over their failed relationship. Skylar was quick to run across from Mount Zonah Medical Center to come get more 'tea.' During the courtcase, that Baker had to attend, Sally noticed that Skylar was very close and waiting on her words, and ensuring that Alexandra Leeds saw her hanging over Sally to try and Sally assumed that it was to prove that the two of them wouldn't happen again. Sally wanted to let Skylar know a secret that she hasn't told anyone. Skylar was very eager to hear about it, and Sally spoke about how Tinker proposed to her and she would love Skylar to be her maid of honor. Skylar quickly said yes, and in fact she had some ideas for where the wedding and reception, where her aunt, Bridie Quinn had her wedding. Since Sally was waiting for Baker to finish up in court, Skylar and Sally jumped into her squadcar and headed out to Richman Mansion. The two explored the property, bouncing ideas back and forth.
During the trial, a 911 disbatcher called over the radio saying that an officer was robbed of his gun and police equipment, and additions were needed, hearing that they would be going to Mount Zonah Medical Center. Where a conversation between OnePac and another man that went by the name of Murder Hill, went south fast. Where suddenly a shots broke out, and Sally took action and returned fire at one of the assailants that shot at her, she was only able to down one when she was shot from behind. Once Sally was taken inside, she was excorted to surgery where Skylar assisted the doctor. Sally became stable, and Skylar realized that she did NOT in fact have Tinker's number. Sally seemed to be normal after surgery and was released, where she was taken back about the sheer amount of blood spred across the ground in front of the hospital. Sally tried to compose herself and took moment.
Skylar and Sally arrived back at VPD, where Sally seemed off, as if her mind was trying to process what had just happened. Tinker came acrossed Sally and informed her of her mandatory psych eval that is needed after an officer involved shooting. This was quickly denied by Sally, and she went back on patrol, actually, she unknowingly headed back up to Sandy to finish her report on the porch of the home that resides on her father's land. When she was finished, she looked up to see both, Tinker and Skylar waiting for her to be ready to talk.
Bishop did what Bishops do best, avoid and avade. Tinker and Skylar, tagged teamed Sally by trying to get her to open up about what was causing her spirial, but in the end of the attempted intervention Sally ended up driving off back to the city to go 42, since Tinker refused to let her get back on duty until the psych eval was completed.
Later that evening, Sally attempted to call Tinker and was unsuccessful. Sally called Skylar asking where Tinker was, giving hints of how she was drinking and driving. Skylar pleded her to stop and was hung up on. Tinker was called next, and he once again failed to answer. Skylar sent out a SOS to both Tinker and a few EMS friends to keep an eye out for Sally's white truck. Tinker found her first, sadly to her being pulled over deputy and Joe Ferraro was second on scene. Joe took it upon himself to help with officer discretion since he believed her to be a good cop, just a bad day. Fast foward to the morning, Tinker brought her to the Lakeview Trailer Park where Dr. Quimbley Hayabusa was at in order to complete the psych eval. After she was given the pass, once again, she deep dove into work and shut down her feelings that both Tinker and Skylar were trying to have her open up about. The three of them, continued with innuendos towards each other with what the evening might entail. This was all while a few others were in the squadcar headed back to the city to get food at the Cluckin' Bell. Later on, Skylar was invited back to Sally and Tinker apartment, where they attempted to watch, When Harry Met Sally... again.. (unsure of the roll.)
Late in the afternoon, Skylar texted Tinker that the two of them wore her out the night before and she asked for food, which caused Tinker and Sally to run to the apartment to see her and drop off food. Tinker and Sally offered Skylar to move in with them at the new apartments. They mentioned that Tinker was needed at the Grapeseed Sheriff's Department and the PD car wash was today and asked if Skylar would like to come with. For most of their time together, Skylar was very vocal of their adventous nights together, which continously made Sally stumble over her words. Arriving at the PD, Baker ended up dressing Sally in her official PD carwash bathing suit outfit that caused both Tinker and Skylar to be stunlocked. Where Skylar was quick to ask to go home, due to her feelings of seeing Sally. Tinker jokingly suggested the S.W.A.T. room. This unexpected pause in the three's day but a 20/20 was rolled... Sally went to drop off Tinker at the carwash, and quickly drove off as per Skylar's request to take her home, Sally walked her to her door.
The days started to merge together, mostly just simple patrols of graverobbing, car jackings and simple day to day criminal scumbags things shes use to. Sally and Wrangler met at the Sandy Shores Trailer Park whioh was being ran by Kyle Pred. Wrangler was looking into moving to the trailer park but had 40 dollars to his name, Sally was generous and offered to buy him a RV since it would make him happy since its really not a bad guy, unlike what she heard of before. The two of them started to bond over talks of their dad's and how they both have Cherokee in them, there were even talks of Wrangler showing Sally the art of Dream Walking, which is a Cherokee Nation. At the Premium Deluxe Motorsport parking lot where they were going to purchase the RV. Wrangler was taken by surpised by Gordo Pantalones when he attemted to steal his truck that resulted in Salena being stabbed in the back after she pulled her tazer. Wrangler didn't know what to do, so he serenaded her with a song, where they came to the bring her to Mt. Zonah Medical Center. Whille at the hostipal Wrangler got a call saying his mother was wandering the street in front of the Department of Motor Vehicles. This was when Randy and Sally took Marjorie Bishop out for a trip. Marj stated that Sally was 'really pretty' but she reminds her of someone she hated. The three of them traveled back up to the trailer park, where Wrangler and Sally setup the RV in his new spot at the Trailer Park. Marj got hungry and she wandered off to burgershot, Sally was quick to follow. This was where an employee greeted her as Mrs. Bishop, Marj ended up really liking really liking Sally and offered to cook her some empanadas. Being that this was the first day for Cadet Academy and with Wrangler dealing with his senile mother, Sally offered to cover for him. While Wrangler was at academy he almost had a panic attack but Sally managed to calmed him down. Sally suggested that the two of them ride together since he was in need of a FTO. They're relationship has been pretty solid and even his own mother liked her after Sally had talks about she would like to bring Marj some homemade cookies.
Pre Wedding Events
The Quad Squad didn't come out of left field when it comes to Sally's feelings towards Lana Gray. Each liked each other for quite some time, but neither Sally, nor Lana acted on their feelings, out of respect, fear and friendship. Life happened, and Sally took a step aside a supported her as friend. The possibitilies of this kinship came into fruition when the group of friends, Sally, Skylar,Tinker all took out Lana out for a distraction from her relationship with Hanna that ended.
A few days passed and Sally and Tinker were busying running around doing the wedding prepation for their up-and-coming wedding leaving their friends and Sally's Maid of Honors alone to keep each other company. Throughout the day both Sally and Tinker were getting update's about Skylar time with Lana. Later in the evening she called freaking out about how quickly Lana made Skylar a loss for words. According to Skylar, her and Lana spend upmost of the entiradity of the two days that the others were gone. They quickly found how much of kindred spirits they were.
The defining moment for this unique group came after the photo shoot for Sally and Tinker's wedding invitations. Info went out, and a lot of work has been going into this wedding, in excitement of Sally and Tinker's wedding. Back at the Richman Mansion, wedding prepations were in full swing and Salena and Tinker, left Lana and Skylar alone to help decorate the venue.

Surprisingly with the amount of possibilties that could have gone wrong, didn't. Salena heard word from anything from John F. Television Jr. being be a plus one from one of her own bridesmaids Sloan Morgan, to Humane Labs situation that would tie up her future husband up until moments before the wedding, even one of her own Maid of Honors, Skylar Quinn not being able to attend due to the death of her father the night before and she had to fly back home to Melbourne, Australia. These all tend to bring on unwanted stresses to Salena, and with the help of the wedding party and the Quad Squad, mainly with help from Lana Gray, Sally was able to finally find the calm that she needed to get through the ceremony. 
The ceremony was beautiful, mutiple people came to support the unlikely couple, a few comments from Peach Chi, opening letting everyone know that there was a way out of this marriage if need be.
The wedding made it through the whole ceremony, two songs and a toast before the Blocks came for their own personal invite which where Mike Block ended up attempted to kidnap The Director of Police Bob Smith, for a hundred dollars. This was where Mike drove a car in the middle of the outdoor dance floor, with police chasing behind. This led to a tazers being drawn and Mike Block was taken down and into custody and the festivities continued onwards as those who were hurt were taken to Mt. Zonah Medical Center.
Later in the evening, everything settled down and Lana let Sally and Tinker know that she would be flying out to Melbourne to go support Skylar with the funeral of her father, Sally and Tinker expressed their interest in attending with her, surpising Skylar and showing support. The four of them spend time with each other in support of Skylar for a few days and afterwards Tinker and Sally flew off to Japan to enjoy the rest of their honeymoon.
Salena Bishop-Tinker - Returned and Refreshed
While one her honeymoon with Tinker, the urge was getting to Salena about the worry about home. Her father's voice constantly in her head about how being on vacation allowed criminal scumbags to go about their way. She ended up end their time in Japan earlier and the two arrived back in Los Santos, surpising both Skylar and Lana. Salena went straight back to work and dove straight into helping fellow Senior Lead, Nicole Nash with the FTO program, and taking on new cadets.
The Quad and the Really Bad Day
Weeks continued on of new, racing, car jackings and the leading to more hatred of tow truck drivers and how they've become more and more scummy. Criminals trying to making waves, and a name for themselves. Becoming more known to the police, Salena's had come acrossed a man who has made it his mission to make her day, basically a shit day if he comes across her. Christopher Whitman, also known as Crispy has hit Salena with a vehicle twice and has made a promise to do it again. The most recent time, during a routine traffic stop with Edward Maddox, this man was threatened to have his tow license taken away. In retailation, he pinned Salena between the front of the tow truck and the awning of the bus station bench which caused injuries that led to the ICU. 
Lana and Tinker sat there in the hallway of the hospital unable to do anything while Sally was under the knife for surgery to remove yet another rib that left remnants behind. Lana ended up calling up Skylar to let her know that Sally was in hospital, she was quick to answer to let her know she was on her way. Salena was taken out of surgery and brought into her ICU room, to do excessive bleeding during surgery. While they were waiting on word from the doctor, Lana was starting to get worried cause Skylar hadden arrived yet. This was when she heard radio traffic stating that there was a 52 in Paleto was in route to Mt. Zonah Medical Center. Once Lana heard the name, her being strong for Tinker, while Sally's rested in the ICU due to her surgery not going as well as they hoped, went out the window. She left the two of them at the ICU and ran to meet the ambulance, and check on the status of Skylar. 
During this time, Tinker sat in the corner of the room, waiting for Sally to come to, or at least hopefully. Jokingly started to egg her on saying that she wasn't allowed to leave him cause that would allow him to fall back into his old ways of being a man-whore. Trying to do anything to get a reaction out of her, while she was in sedated state. Tinker recieved a call from Lana saying that Skylar was on her way, when she was attacked by a Cougar at the RV camp that they setup in Paleto a few days prior, and that she was going into surgery due to her being mauled while she was downed waiting for someone to find her. Tinker heard it in her voice, that she wasn't okay, as the two of them were struggling to keep each other calm during their own hell. 
Lana brought Skylar up to Sally's ICU room after she was given the okay that she was well enough to rest at home, she placed her on the bed with Sally. Tinker and Lana left the room for a moment, and this was when Skylar attempted to get Sally's attention saying that she wasn't allowed to go anywhere cause she is needed for her wedding. Speaking allowed she spoke of how she thought Lana was trying to propose to her and she needs Sally. Salena ended up speaking up to Skylar, which she hobbled out to let the others know that she's awake. When the three of them went to check back up on her she'd passed out again, Skylar looking a bit crazy... maybe it was the ungodly amount of morphine in her veins from being hurt. 
Lana wasn't having it, and she ended up poking Sally with a safety pin trying to get her to speak up again, which actually worked out in her favor, Sally awoke and spoke about having a dream where she was at a wedding where Skylar was the bride, clearly Sally was trying to egg on Lana trying to get her to go through the proposal. She seemed to be getting better, and she was coming down from the medicine that they used during her surgery. She asked if there was a chance that they could go home, she was over being stick of being in the hospital. The four of them ended up heading out so she and Skylar could rest up.
Bishinker
After hearing the news of Lana and Skylar's engagement, Sally and Tinker were the first to know, and they spent their time back at the apartment, where they discussed the details of a possible date. Skylar mentioned something in passing, asking if the state would allow couples to marry, wanting to continue with Tinker and Sally in her happiness with Lana. Sally was immediately bored, and she called Gavin Joy, who was the judge who married them, asking if it was possible. The answer was yes, but they needed to act quickly due to the state wanting to make bigamy illegal due to limiting the number of people one would be married to. He stated that if they could get married before the law went through, there would be a high chance of being grandfathered in.
Sally ensured the couple that they needed their wedding; then they could deal with the idea of being married together later; jokingly (maybe), there were talks of combining a new last name between all of them, where they all loved Bishinkerquinn and jokingly said they were all on board, while Tinker realized that their last names made the abbreviation of GBTQ and with Lana's first name... it would be L.G.B.T.Q.
New Beginning, Fresh Start - Fairwell to the Past
Salena ended up having a very hard-hitting conversation with Skylar Quinn on the Bridgeway where Lana and Skylar had their moment of-- well, it caused some stirred emotions between the two. Sally and Skylar talked about how Sally felt her time with the police force was starting to suffocate her. She loved her co-workers and spent most of her time patrolling, but she was beginning to tire of living up to her father's image when there was a chance that he was not even alive. 
The two spoke for hours and talked about her next steps, and Sally thought she might switch to EMS and help people for a change. Skylar was super supportive and went with her to speak with both Jessie "Nova" Gallagah and Nicole Nash to talk about her resignation. Nash was very saddened to see her go but completely understood Sally's reasoning; she mentioned that she was more than welcome if she ever wanted to return, even if she wanted to help with the FTO academy; they mentioned that they have her full support but request that she speaks with Lou Caruso in the morning since he is her LT. Nash spoke about how she would be there for her when the conversation happened. Later on Skylar ended up getting everything settles with Bernard Dinks in order to get her onboarded and start her training within the Los Santos Emergency Medical Services.

Midnights Talks
Into the early mornings, Sally awoke to a notification from 311 stating that Skylar was in the ICU, she went to visit her, with the rest of the Quad being stuck places and unable to come, she worriedly spend the night not leaving Skylar's bedside. That next day, Sally ended up getting a phone call from Lana asking for a ride to the hospital, where they waited for Skylar to wake up.
Lana's spoke the magic word, about coffee, and it ironically awoke to saying "It's never just coffee.. Lana." Excitingly, the three of them spoke about Skylar's reasoning for being in the ICU. Lana ended up calling Bernard Dinks after Skylar asked for her dad. When he arrived, he gave them the lowdown on what was their findings and where they found her. During this time, Sally and Lana texted speaking about how earlier in the week that there was jokingly talks about cocaine from Skylar and Lana wanted to go and check if there was anything left and remove it. Bernard encouraged the three to go get food until they waited for a doctor to clear her from the ICU.
Fast-forward, Lana drove up to the Irvine Inn to check the apartment, all while Sally and Skylar drove to get food and meet with Lana later. Sally spoke about how she found a song that she wanted Skylar to listen to, especially since she loves lyrics and songs. It was a happy moment for a second that the three of them ended up taking a day trip up into the mountains at Two Hoots Falls, where Lana spoke about how, she did some digging, she found small traces of cocaine, indicating that she was clearly on it.
The three of them had a very long discussion full of ups and downs, due to Lana and Sally worrying about Skylar's overall well-being. Sally angrily spoke to Skylar about how, "Her aunt is dead, and she's no longer here." Sally and Lana had a talk about why would she drive up there and do drugs? Lana spoke about how she lapsed in judgement with how everything the past few weeks had been going, and how she had a problem back in college, and decided to take the rest to 'remove the evidence.' Skylar lashed out towards Lana and told her to "Fuck Off." in anger over her knee-jerk reaction and how she's disappeared on her during a time when she needed her partners most. Sally spoke with Lana how she wasn't sure how she was feeling, but she was going to push it down, due to Skylar starting to show signs like her mother, before she died. Lana spoke on how she wants Skylar to better herself, but she can't stand idly by while she goes down this path and find her dead at the end of the day. Skylar spoke about how she spoke she slipped up, but her reasoning being that it was her aunt's anniversary of her death, along with the captain elections, Nova, and how Jacob and Kris were acting, work and she lasped.
Lana broke down about how she can't handle how she can not be around 24/7 and that a week prior her and Tinker sat there in the hospital helplessly as Sally and Skylar were in the ICU, all while they had to explain to random people their relationship. Skylar brokedown about how she got hurt on the ONE DAY where she needed somone and no one was around, she spoke about reliving the day she (her aunt) passed. She asked for slack about the day. Skylar apologized for being a troubled mess, and worrying them all, but she asked for sympathy. Sally spoke how she felt horrible for what she said, they continued to talk how they'll do better and no matter what they'll be there to support one another.
Skylar and Sally ended up starting the onboarding process for Los Santos Emergency Medical Services as a Non-Solo Trainee, Skylar mentioned how she will be finding only the best of FTOs for Sally due to her not wanting her to go through shit training. Sally's first shift was short but sweet, though she had to explain herself to both Joe Ferraro and Edward Maddox on her reasoning why she quit the Los Santos Police Department and went to EMS.
