It had been just like any other normal day for the LAPD Major Crimes Unit, well if normal is what you'd call any day in Major Crimes. Flynn had been the first one to get the feeling that something wasn't right at the warehouse, and then he saw it out of the corner of his eye, something glinting in the sunshine on the roof of the building across the street, but his reaction was about a second too late. Shar… was all he got out before a bullet sent Captain Sharon Raydor collapsing onto the ground. "Sharon" he yelled out, running to her, not even caring about the shooter taking him out as well. But the only thing that the shooter was interested in was making a clean getaway, before the rest of her squad reemerged from inside the warehouse. Andy bent down and cradled her head in his arms. "Sharon, talk to me… Sharon" he pleaded. At this point, Provenza, Sykes, Tao, and Sanchez came rushing out of the warehouse. At noticing Andy bent down a few yards ahead of them, they knew that something was immediately wrong. "Flynn, what the hell happened?" exclaimed Provenza running toward him, and then he got close enough to see Raydor on the ground, bleeding profusely from the abdomen. Flynn was too preoccupied with Sharon, that it was as if he hadn't heard Provenza speaking to him. He had found the wound and was applying pressure on it with his suit jacket. "Oh my God!" exclaimed Provenza. "Raydor's down," he yelled to the others who came running towards them. He pulled out his radio "This is Lieutenant Lou Provenza, I need a bus at 1065 Jenson Rd. I have an officer down, gunshot wound to the abdomen, requesting immediate assistance" he said. "Copy that lieutenant, we'll have someone in route momentarily" said the dispatcher on the other end of the line. "Sharon, come on stay with me" pleaded Flynn to the semi- conscious Raydor. "An..nd..Y" she managed in a raspy voice. "Yeah, I'm right here, now you just stay with me okay, a bus will be here soon" he said authoritative, yet caring at the same time. She started to close her eyes. "No…No…No, Sharon, don't you dare die on me, you hear me" he said patting her cheek, half crying now, not caring who saw him. Her eyes flickered open. "A...n...dy, I'm…s..o.. cold..." she murmured, barely above a whisper. She started to cough up blood. "Sharon…. Sharon…." he yelled. He got no response this time. Just then they could hear the wail of the sirens from the rapidly approaching ambulance. Then they could see the flashing lights as the ambulance pulled into the lot. The EMTs quickly rushed over with a gurney. "Lieutenant, we'll take it from here" said the female EMT. Andy just stayed there motionless, his hands still pressing his now blood-drenched jacket to the gaping wound in Sharon's abdomen. "Flynn, you need to move, and let them do their job" said Provenza. Provenza could see that he was not gonna just move away, and he didn't have time to argue with him, so he started to pull him back, but it took him, Tao, and Sanchez to hold him back, as the paramedics checked Sharon's vitals and loaded her onto the gurney. "Let's move, she's fading fast" yelled the female paramedic to the other as they whisked Sharon towards the awaiting ambulance. "No, let me go" yelled Flynn, struggling to get out of their grasps. "Flynn, Flynn" said Provenza loudly trying to get him to calm down. "Let me go Louie," he reiterated angrily. "Listen to me Andy, It's not gonna do any good for you to go with her, you'll just be in the way, you need to let them take care of her, okay" said Provenza. Even though andy didn't want to admit it to himself, he knew that Provenza was right. Then a thought suddenly occurred to him. "Oh my God, someone needs to call Rusty" said Flynn. Flynn started to pull out his phone, but Provenza took it from him. "Let me do it" said Provenza. He dialed Rusty's cell number. "Hello" came the voice on the other end. "Rusty, it's Lieutenant Provenza" said Provenza. "Lieutenant is something wrong?" asked Rusty nervously, knowing that a call from Provenza meant that something was definitely up. "Rusty, something's happened" said Provenza trying to break the news as lightly as possible. "What?" asked Rusty? "Listen kid, Sharon's been shot, she's on her way Cedars" said Provenza. For a moment, there was silence on the other end. "Rusty" said Provenza. "How the hell did this happen, is she gonna be okay" said Rusty erratically and tearing up. "I don't know, Rusty, I'm not gonna lie to you though, it looked pretty bad" said Provenza. Provenza could hear rusty panicking on the other end of the line. "Listen to me kid, you gotta calm down okay, I'm gonna come pick you up" said Provenza. "Okay" said Rusty. "I'll be there soon" said Provenza, and then he hung up. He handed the phone back to Andy. "Tao, Sanchez, Sykes, you guys go with Flynn to the hospital, I'm going to go pick up Rusty from school, I'll meet you there" said Provenza. With that they all got in their cars and headed off to their respective destinations.
