Brantley's Pov 


I was sitting in my car looking at the old saw mill. I had to get away from the office today so today I'm just cruising the streets. So far I've pulled over a drunk man and 4 people speeding. They was doing 50 in a 35. Some times I need to get back to the streets when I was rookie cop. I had a lot of fun being a rookie. I've been working on the case with the different murders for some time now and still at a dead end. I wish I can stop them before someones get's hurts. But I'm at at dead end. 

I was watching the traffic and so far everyone is doing the speed limit. This makes my job a hell of a lot easier. I was about to pull out when I saw a car go right in the ditch. I rushed over to it having my sirens going off. I called for a medic as well. 

I jumped out of my car and ran over to the car. The car itself was on fire. I got down to the ground when I saw a little boy in the backseat. 

"Little man can you move." I asked him. 

"Yes." He barely said to me. I tried to open the door, but it was stuck. 

"Can you get out on the other side." I asked him. I need to get him out of here and fast. 

"I think so." He said to me. 

"Do it!" I yelled at him. I moved over to the man driving and he was gone. I didn't hear a heart beat or nothing. I looked and saw the little boy trying to get out. I got up and ran to the other side of the car. I can smell gas every where. I need to get us out of here and fast. 

"Get down!" I yelled at him. He did what I told him to do and I broke the glass.

"Come here buddy." I said to him. I knew it was only a matter of time before the car was going to blow up. I picked up the little boy and ran fast as I could to get us out of here. I can hear my back up coming and I saw people watching what was going on?

"Look out!" I hear someone yelling. Right then the car blew up. I fell on top of the little boy trying to save him. I felt something hit me in my back. I looked down at the little boy who was crying his little eyes out. 

"Your safe now son." I said to him. He gave me a hug. I picked him up again and I fell right back down. 

"Gilbert! Gilbert! You okay man?" One of my co workers asked me. I raised up my shirt saw that I had burn marks on my back. 

"You need to get to the hospital now! Medic!" Tom yelled. I looked down at the small child crying. 

"You want to come with me to the hospital to get your head looked at?" I asked him. He shook his head yes to me. 

"Come on." I said to him. I looked back at Tom. 

"There was a dead man driving." I said to him. 

"I'll take care of it. You get to the hospital." Tom said to me. The small boy and I walked over to the ambulance car and got in. 

"What's your name son?" I asked him. He looked up at me. 

"Ned." He said to me. I smiled down at him. 

"I'm Brantley." I said to him. My back is killing me. I feel like my whole body is on fire. 

"Are you okay Brantley." He asked me. I looked down at him. 

"I'm good, but I think my tattoo is messed up." I said to him. Ned smiled at me. 

"We are taking you to Jefferson County Hospital." The medic said to me. I looked at him. 

"My wife is a nurse there. Ava Gilbert. Get her to check on Ned for me." I said to him. 

"I will sir. Ned hows your head?" The medic asked him.
