Criminals in Love

Revealed Part 2

******

"Tell us a little something about yourself." Captain GD says, questioning Nadine. Her little episode earlier has resulted in her getting strapped to the chair with belts, like a mental patient. She keeps her head down, refusing to answer the question. A frustrated sigh comes from the chair across her. The chair squeaks and booming footsteps are made toward Nadine. She yelps as she is yanked back by her hair. Behind the double mirror, Brason winces, having second thoughts about bringing Nadine. 'No, she is a criminal and she needs justice,' He thought to himself. A pale looking, positionless officer walks up to him and directs him to walk with him to a different room.

Nadine grimaces at GD while he tugs on her strands of brown locks.

"Fine. Want to play rough?" GD gets close to Nadine's face, "Let's play rough.". GD proceeds to shove Nadine away and slams his hand on the table.

"Bring me the remote. NOW!" In, walks a petty officer, which Nadine could tell by his badges, or lack of thereof. He hands his Commander a remote control to which GD turns on the the security TV.

"Nadine?!", yells familiar voices that Nadine almost didn't recognize. Her eye widen when she sees her family tied in chairs, crying and screaming for her. Two officers walk in, the petty one from before, holding a suitcase. The other officer was Brason, who looks directly to the camera and stands right before Nadine's father. The petty officer opens his suitcase revealing a gun, and hands it to Brason. Brason loads and cocks the gun pointing it to her father's forehead. Her mother and sisters bawl, and scream. They cry for Brason, but he pays no mind. He has shot many before, but now? His fiancee's father? New territory, eyes close and conquer. Nadine's father closes his eyes and reassures his family that everything is okay and Nadine is safe. GD turns to Nadine,

"If you don't start talking, they die. And I'll have Brason do it himself too." Nadine looks at GD with hatred in her eyes. Pure Hatred.

"Fine." she breathes.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you Nadiline." GD teases her. She raises her head and looks him with the deadliest stare she could muster with her puffy red eyes and bruised lip,

"I. Said. Fine." GD picks up the talkie, and pretends to give it to the attending officer in the room, but instead pulls to back to his cigarette black lips and whispers,

"Kill him."

Nadine looks at the screen and Brason pulls the trigger, not a bit of hesitance or guilt resulted in his icy cold blue eyes.

"Coward!" runs out of Nadine's mouth.

"You are all a bunch of cowards!' Nadine screams, "You Cowards!" She is breathing heavy, and GD turns off the TV screen. Her father, her papa, lying dead on the floor with her mother drenched in his blood, screaming and crying at the loss of her love. Her baby sisters, doe eyes widened, in shock of witnessing the death of their beloved father. They won't get to grow up with him. This thought angered her even more. GD laughs, not even a snicker, a full blown cackle.

"YOU, have the audacity... to call ME... no, US cowards?" He grabs Nadine's jaw, "You were the one who couldn't even stand up for yourself, for your family." He lets go of her.

"Take her to her cell." He says as he walks towards the two-way mirror, staring at it, knowing Brason would have just seen GD touch Nadine.

As Nadine is ushered out, she spots Brason, as always, stone cold. Nadine shows her hate for him and catapults a gigantic ball of saliva at his face.

"I can personally assure you that I will kill you and your Captain with my bare, cold hands. It's obvious we're over, cheater." The saliva is still sliding down Brason's sculpted face. Nadine is yanked away from her from her former lover to her jail cell.

Nadine sits in her cell slouched against the hard, gray, concrete wall. Her cuffs are still on, attached to her springy, bolted to the floor, bed. Memories of her father replaying in her head. When he taught her how to ride a bike, but he fell himself. Them laughing about inside jokes in public places. He was the one who got her hooked on the soup that always makes her feel better when she was sick. When Nadine brought Brason home to her family, her father was instantly accepting. He was the one who taught Brason how to make the soup.

"He is a keeper dine, I just know it!" he told her and kissed her on her head. A tear slips down Nadine's face. She despised Brason, after everything they have been through, he drops her, cheats on her and kills her father. Nadine felt more betrayed than Brason could ever play off. It was fake at first, but she fell hard in month. She truly loved him, but they were engaged, and he was cheating on her with Jennifer. Jennifer pretended to be nice to her. Pretended to be friends with her, when Jennifer herself knew that Nadine didn't have many friends.

When Brason made it to his house that night, he couldn't hold his rage anymore. A loud yell comes from him. He could feel it in his chest. He felt it in his heart. He was hurt. Nadine had broken his heart, though she wasn't the one cheating, she was a criminal. The perfect cover up, be a lawbreaker right under the nose of the law enforcer. Nadine had broken into the Government offices and stolen records of Commanding Chiefs of the State of Oregon. She, too, worked in an official Oregon records office. They had been tracing this woman for years, believing she was a male. She was smart, but easily afraid. Brason remembers nights she had spent over and snuck into his room for her to be comforted from 'noises outside'. But, what had he done by killing her father? One of the small amount of humans she cared for, him being one. Or used to be. He could still smell her strawberry bubblegum breath on his nose, and taste it on his lips. Brason walked to the refrigerator and cracked open a beer. He unzipped his pants kicked off his shoes and fell asleep thinking of how Nadine could bust out of prison. These thoughts were criminal thoughts, but Brason was one to find out.

Nadine is woken up from the sound of her cell door opening, she fell asleep reminiscing over her father. She sniffles, and blinks the light away. As she stretches, a foul odor of sweat and period, come froms her armpits. Her nose wrinkles in disgust, and the female officer who stands across her, looks at her with a horrid expression. The female officer cuffs Nadine and takes her to GD's Office. Nadine walks in and looks around the dark blue office, she notices the pictures of his wife and pets. When her eyes meet his, he squints and brings his hand to his nose. GD, preventing her body stench from entering his nose, instructs her sit and explains why he wanted her in the office.

"We have you under arrest for homicide and forgery." GD slides to her multiple passports and driver's licenses with her face on them.

"How did you get those? They were in my house?" Nadine frantically looks between GD and the passports. GD reaches behind him to pull out a folded piece of paper. A warrant. A angered growl comes from Nadine.

"This warrant granted us access to your home and all of your other properties. Now you could come clean. Admit what you did and I can try to take off some years of your forgery sentence. But the deaths could result in Life and no probation."

"What deaths? I didn't kill anyone." Nadine explains. GD looks at her as if she grew a few heads, remembering that Brason was the one who exclaimed that Nadine murdered his entire team.

"Jack said you did. He said so on the radio." GD turns to the female officer who brought Nadine in,

"Tell officer 431 to report to my office now."

"He isn't here today sir. He is off." Just then gunshots were heard outside and a car broke through the wall inside GD's office. Concrete and pieces were flying everywhere, GD instantly dead from the impact. Nadine handcuffed to the chair, fell over. Jack swiftly jumps out of the car and uncuffs Nadine. Filled with confusion, Brason picks her up bridal style and the pull off onto the highway. Police Station blazing behind them.
