Safe Place

Chapter Two

Miranda's P.O.V

What the hell am I going to tell the cops? I thought while I was sitting in the interrogation room. I could just keep my mouth shut but in my experience first one to talk gets the deal.

"So why were you and your partner tagging in Latin Kings territory?", a raspy voice called grabbing my full attention. "I don't know thought it would get our blood racing." I responded with attitude knowing I probably shouldn't respond to Hank Voight that way but I had to keep up the tough guy act.

"Ok if that's how you want to play it then the first one to talk walks away with a slap on the wrist no charges nothing it will be like this never happened." Voight had said before walking out of the room.

Antonio's P.O.V

I watched as Voight talked with the girl I'm assuming is Miranda since we did find a wallet in her bag that had an ID with her name and photo. The other young girl didn't have any ID to help identify who she was.

"You want to take her or have Lindsay and I?" Jay asked referring to the teen we can't identify at the moment. "Nah I'll do it." I said taking the file from his hand and walking into the interrogation room to start questioning her.

"So what's your name?" I asked and just my luck she doesn't answer. "Okay do u want anything to drink or eat?" I tried again and yet again no answer. That's when Voight walked in and I watched as the young girl visibly stiffened.

"You have a choice here you could talk and get off scott free or keep playing the silent act and your partner in the room across the hall gets to walk away, so what's it going to be?" Voight asked the girl and yet again no answer.

Aliyah's P.O.V

I was sitting in the same damn room for who knows how long when the door opened to reveal a dark haired, dark eyed detective who I guess was in charge of getting me to talk, thing is I had already made my mind up about not talking to anyone.

"So what's your name?", the detective asked, and of course I didn't answer. How am I going to get out of this mess? I thought."Okay do you want anything to drink or eat?" He asked again and I kept quite but as soon as Hank Voight walked in my whole body stiffened.

As soon as he had told me if I talk I get off scott free I was tempted but then he said it was me or miranda and I wasn't going to let my best friend take the fall after all if we didn't have to tag every place we hit we more than likely wouldn't have gotten caught.

Aliyah's P.O.V

Miranda ended up walking out the front door just like Voight had said would happen but I didn't really care. I was then escorted to the holding cells because they thought sooner or later I'm going to talk and they are probably right.

"So Aliyah..." the detective from early said making my gaze land on him surprised he knew my name. I didn't touch anything in the interrogation room and all my forms of ID are at home and I'm pretty sure miranda wouldn't give my name right? I thought.

"Why tag the building?" He said grabbing my attention again. "How did you get my name? I didn't touch anything and I know my ID is at my house." I asked and as soon as I did he looked at me with an unreadable expression.

"Um that was something your friend had to give up in order for her to walk." He said with clear shock behind his voice like he expected to get nowhere with me. "Oh" is all I managed to say. "So the tagging", he asked again with a hopeful look in his eyes. Oh what the hell might as well I ain't going anywhere anytime soon. I thought.

"It's a warning", I finally answered.

Antonio's P.O.V

"It's a warning" Aliyah had said and I was taken back a warning gangs don't usually warn people they just act.

"A warning huh who's idea" I asked her hoping to get another answer. "Mine" she said bluntly like it was no big deal.
"Why warn people?" Was the next question out of my mouth.

"Why take someone else's life that isnt even a part of our damn life style!!!" She snapped at me and in that moment I knew she didn't want the life she has been living lately.

"Hey its just a question" I said my hands up in a mock surrender. "What does it even matter you know where we are going to hit next and letting miranda go, Voight or some other detective either put a tracker on her or you guys are tailing her" she said her voice full of annoyance .

"Smart kid" I said with a smirk on my face. There's still hope for this girl after all. I thought to myself. "So when am I getting sent to my hearing huh?" Aliyah asked with attitude making me chuckle. "What's funny?" She said dangerously low. "Nothing I just have a great idea." I said while getting up to ask Voight about it.

Aliyah's P.O.V

I have no clue what just happened the detective got some answers, so I asked about my hearing and when it was going to be not in the nicest way but whatever and all he did was chuckle. Me being me I asked him what was funny.

"Nothing I just have an idea" was his reply and then he left. Oh god what the hell did u get yourself into maybe his idea has nothing to do with me and I'm being paranoid for nothing. I thought to myself but of course I was wrong.

A/N: Hope you guys are enjoying I know it's not the best but I'm trying my best.
