For the next few hours, no more leads were found of the guy illegally selling tanks. Chris was sitting on a bench watching Street and Tan train. Tan asked, "Hey, Chris, how's Strong doing?" He hit a claw that Street held out to him. Chris replied "She's fine. She just forgets every morning that her shin is broken and puts too much stress on it. She's always yelling and cursing then around." Street said "That must really hurt!" He screwed up his face at the notion. Tan continued to ask "Is she coming back soon?" Chris nodded and replied "Yes, she'll be back next Monday. Though only for inside duty and not for outside duty but that's still better than nothing." Hondo joined them and called out "Hey guys closing time for the day!" Street and Tan put the claws away and walked up to Hondo Street asked "And what about that guy with the tanks?" Hondo looked him in the eye and replied "We still have no leads on his whereabouts..." Chris joined them and asked indignantly "So the case is shelved?" Hondo looked at them seriously "Yes Chris." Chris couldn't believe it and went to the locker rooms. When she was almost done changing Deacon came into the locker room and asked "Do you need a ride?" Chris picked up her backpack and replied "Yeah, I'd love to."

Strong hobbled over to the sofa and flopped down on it. She dug out her cell phone and ordered dinner. She ordered for Chris too and hoped Chris would be home in time. She turned on the TV and turned on a TV show.
A few minutes later, she heard the apartment door open. Strong looked over her shoulder and said "Hey Chris dinner is coming too." Strong took her aides and stood up. She limped toward Chris and saw that Deacon was standing behind her. She said "Oh Deacon. I didn't expect you to come visit us tonight..." Deacon waved politely and said "It's no big deal Strong." Chris approached Strong and said "Kom sit back down. You need to watch your leg." Strong smiled and sat back down on the sofa. Chris put her backpack down in the bedroom and then joined Deacon in sitting down with Strong. Some time later, dinner arrived as well. They ate together and it wasn't until about 11 p.m. that Deacon left for home.

A few weeks later.

Commander Hicks was sitting in his office it was seven in the morning. There was a knock at the door. He called out, "Come in!" A woman wearing a blue jacket entered his office. The jacket said FBI. Hicks stood up and asked "Oh good morning Special Agent Benson. Is there anything I can do for you?" Benson approached and said "Yes you can help me it's about Jessica Cortez..."
