Chapter 2

Dirty Politics

As Jace gets into work the next morning he is called into his police sergeant's office he looks over at Jack and raises his eyebrow as he walks in and shuts the door "hey Sarge, how can i help you I'm about to finish that paperwork on the incident we had last night if that's what you're about to ask me about" he says as he sits down in the chair. Sarge was a big guy standing at 6'6 weighing in at 330 pounds all muscle he had been the police sergeant at that precinct for 10 years 5 by the time Jace had come through as a rookie police officer. "no Jace it's not about the paperwork I know that you have been working double shifts back-to-back trying to close this case and you're going to hate me for what I'm about to ask you to do but per mayor's orders he wants you to drop the investigation that led to last night's shootout at the warehouse if not they will take legal action against you to have you removed from the force" Sarge says as he stands with his back to his best detective with his arms on his hips " wait a minute Sarge you're asking me to drop a legal investigation that could potentially have big consequences for the city come on sarge this isn't you are you being railroaded" sarge huffs and rolls his eyes " whether I am or not is no concern of yours detective Uramaku, but the order still stands as your commanding officer I am ordering you to drop this investigation and hand everything over to the mayor's office, is that clear" jace looks at the captain and can see him clenching his jaw and Jace looks down clenching his fists knowing he can't do anything about this "fine Sarge I'll turn over all my notes doesn't mean I'm going to be happy about it though I've been working this case for 2 years and now the mayor wants to protect his ass or take credit for it" Jace says in a loud voice obviously irritated about the whole deal as he stands to leave to go get his notes and give them over to Sarge so he can hand them off to a runner for the mayor, as he passes his desk he passes Jack and Jack can hear him say in a whisper to him "this is Bullshit" as Jace throws all of his notes in a folder on the case with all the evidence photos and everything he takes them into Sarge's office and throws them on his desk "sarge I'm going to be taking a few days off I need to clear my head" he says, sarge looks over at him and nods giving him permission to leave and as Jace grabs his bag he passes by Jack again and let's Jack know to come by his apartment after work and Jack acknowledges him by nodding his head slightly and Jace heads home and on the way picks up the disposable camera that he had had developed overnight at a store near his place.
