I don't even know how to begin apologizing for not updating in so long, but I will start with posting this chapter. I hope you guys like it and I'm really sorry that I took so long to update. I just got distracted with school and my other story.


I pulled on my jacket as we got out of Bobby's car at the Casino and I walked close to Jack as we went to the doors. I didn't know what was going to happen if we found these guys except for the fact that there would most likely be two less scumbags in Detroit by the end of the night. We walked inside and the loud music and sounds of people playing the different games greeted us. I pulled on the ends of my scarf as I looked around the room for the guy with a braided goatee. "Do you guys see them?" I asked as I scanned the room slowly, squinting so I could see further.

Angel was muttering under his breath about a goatee when I felt Jack tense up next to me. He hit Bobby on the arm, "Hey man there he is." He said quietly.

"Where?" Bobby asked as he leaned closer to Jack so he could see what he saw.

"Right there!" He said a little louder as he pointed. "The guy with the goatee!'

"Man put you hand down." Bobby said as he yanked Jack's arm down.

I could feel the anger rising as I kept my eyes glued to the sorry excuse of a human who was responsible for Miss Evie's death. I saw the guy with him turn and say something to him and they both looked at us. Just as Bobby said he could see them the guy with the goatee pulled out his gun. I grabbed Jack's arm and pulled down on it as I ducked. I squeezed my eyes tightly shut as I heard the gun fire and the gasps of everyone in the casino. After the second shot was fired Jack pulled me up and we all took off running after them. People kept standing up and getting in the way as they tried to get to safety and one fat guy who worked at the casino tried to stop us. I slipped behind him while he focused on trying to stop Jack, Angel, and Bobby.

My heart was hammering away in my chest as I ran out the door after the guys and I didn't know if it was because I was running or because I was scared shitless of the fact that I was running after killers practically by myself. I grabbed the pistol I kept with me and pulled it out as I ran through the door to the parking lot. The guys we were after were getting in their car as I got outside and I fired a couple of shots as they slammed the doors shut and sped away. Jack came up next to me and started firing at the car as it left the parking lot and I heard the satisfying ding of bullets hitting metal.

"You go girl!" Bobby said slapping Jack on the arm. "Let's get these mother fuckers.

We quickly piled into the back of Bobby's car and I struggled to get my seatbelt buckled. "It won't work. It won't buckle." I said a little franticly as Bobby whipped out of the parking spot and sped out onto the road. The force of the car turning so quickly threw me close to Jack and he wrapped an arm tightly around me.

"I've got you Wills." He said quickly pressing a kiss to my temple before he turned his attention back to the gun in his lap. "I'd reload that little thing if I were you." He said nodding towards my pistol that was in the seat next to me.

"I didn't bring bullets." I hissed through my teeth as the car fishtailed on the icy road. Jack tightened his grip on me as he looked at me with raised brows. "I didn't think I actually have to shoot the damn thing. I've had it four years and this was literally the first time a bullet has shot through that thing. This is the maiden voyage so don't judge me sweetheart!" I could hear Angel yelling at Bobby to go faster as the car jerked to the side again. I slipped out of Jack's grasp and hit the door on the other side of the car. "Damn Bobby, watch it!" I yelled.

"I've got no fucking traction on this fucking street!" He defended.

Jack put the gun in his lap to the side and pulled me into his lap. "There, feel better? I'm your human seatbelt."

I grabbed the gun he had put to the side and held it in my lap as I leaned back against him. "Much better." I could feel his heart hammering in his chest against my back and I could tell he was as freaked out and pumped up about the situation as I was. It was a weird mix of adrenaline and fear coursing through my veins. "We'll be ok Jackie." I said, turning and placing a quick kiss on the side of his forehead. He flashed me a tense smile as he tightened his grip on my waist. When I turned to look back at the car racing away in front of us, Bobby took a sharp turn and the car skidded, slamming into a row of cars parked along the side of the street. The force of the impact shook us all and my head smacked against the top of the window. "Damn Bobby!" I yelled, gingerly rubbing the spot where I was sure there would be a huge bruise tomorrow.

Bobby ignored me as he continued driving, "Damn I scratched the whole side of my fucking car!"

Jack held onto me as he leaned forward, yelling, "You gonna get these guys before you kill us?"

"Sit back and put that seatbelt on Jack." Bobby ordered, eyes locked on the car in front of us.

"Watch the snow man!" Angel cautioned as the car continued to fishtail down the road.

"I don't give a fuck about the snow!" Then, without warning, two bullets flew through the windshield. I ducked, putting my hands over my head as Jack did his best to turn us, trying to shield me with his body. I had never been more terrified than I was in that moment and by the way Jack's hands were shaking as he held onto me, I could tell he was freaking out too. "Hurry up and give me that shotgun!" Bobby yelled back at us.

Jack let go of me briefly to reach over and pick up the shotgun that was lying where I had been sitting before. He held it up, checking it, "There's no shells!"

"Wills check the trunk!" Bobby yelled.

"What do you want from it?" I asked, turning to look.

"Oh just sit down and shut up! Angel stick that cannon out the window and bust some shots." Bobby ordered.

"I'll put one in the back of their head!" Angel said as he proceeded to stick his pistol out the window and shoot.

When the first shot rang out I flinched as Bobby continued to yell encouragements at Angel. I leaned back, pressing my back firmly against Jack's chest, feeling his heart racing away in his chest, matching up with my own racing pulse. "Jackie…" I said nervously as the car in front of us began to swerve erratically.

"You got them!" Bobby yelled out as he sped the car up to catch them.

"It's gonna be fine Wills." Jack whispered shakily in my ear, squeezing me tightly against him as the car in front of us hit a snow drift and came to a stop.

"Hold on tight back there you two and watch this!" Bobby yelled back as we sped forward.

I realized what Bobby was going to do a split second before it happened and I grabbed tightly onto Jack's arms, bracing my legs against the back of Angel's seat right before we slammed into the stopped car. "Shit!" I yelled through gritted teeth as the force of the impact jerked us around.

"Don't let them get away, don't let them get away!" Angel yelled as I opened my eyes to see the car speeding away yet again. More shots were fired at us and Angel got out of his seat, leaning out the window to fire a few more rounds at the car in front of us.

The car jerked as another one of the tires gave out and I heard Angel shout as he fell forward, almost falling completely out of the window. "Angel!" I yelled, leaning forward to try to grab the back of his jacket, anything to keep him from falling completely out of the speeding death trap we were in.

Bobby reached over and grabbed the back of Angel's jacket firmly and yanked him back through the window. "Get your ass back in here." We could all hear the sound of screeching metal against the pavement, "Shit another blow out!"

At this point I was trembling in Jack's arms. I wanted to get these guys, I really did, but this chase was getting more dangerous than I thought it would be. "Let's just stop. Bobby let's just stop!" Jack yelled over my shoulder as he rubbed one of my arms reassuringly.

"Shut up Jack, we'll ride it out on the rims. We'll get these motherfuckers." Bobby shot back at him. Sparks were flying from the metal on the asphalt as we drove onto the bridge and gained on the car in front of us. Bobby brought the car up close enough and jerked the wheel, hitting their rear bumper, causing them to swerve. "I got 'em, I got 'em now." Bobby said as he brought the car up almost even with the other one and rammed them repeatedly until their car began to spin. "Hold on!" He yelled as he turned the wheel sharply, sending our car flying into the side of the other, causing it to flip and go flying through the air, landing on its roof.

"That's what I'm talking about Bobby!" Angel said, slapping Bobby on the arm as he and Jack cheered.

Bobby brought the car to a stop and I opened the door, scrambling out of Jack's lap and into the cold wind. Jack followed close behind me and we both took off in a jog after Angel and Bobby. "Jack, you and Wills stay here." Bobby said over his shoulder as he and Angel continued towards the wrecked car.

I started to continue after them, but Jack grabbed my arm, stopping me. "Bobby said to wait Wills." He said, pulling me back towards him.

"But Jack…" I started to protest. I wanted to get these guys, I wanted to make them pay. Pay for killing Miss Evie and for the ridiculously dangerous chase they had just led us on.

"Bobby told us to stay back for a reason." Jack reasoned, sliding his hand down my arm and locking his fingers with mine.

I knew I should be freezing cold with the wind and snow whipping around us the way it was, but I couldn't feel a thing. I was just numb. This was about to be over. We were about to avenge Evie's death and then go on with our lives. Jack and I were going to New York, Angel would keep fooling around with Sophie until one of them did something stupid, Jerry would keep being a family man, and Bobby would do whatever the hell Bobby did when he disappeared. But Miss Evie, she wouldn't get to do anything because of those two bastards. At that realization, a freezing cold tear slid down my face and I shivered involuntarily. With that initial shiver I began to shake uncontrollably and Jack pulled me close to him. I stumbled numbly towards him, turning to bury my face in his chest, tears now flowing freely down my face as Jack wrapped his arms around me and watched his brothers kicking the men who had shot Miss Evie. When two shots were fired, Jack jumped and quickly turned away and pulling me with him, one of his hands shielding my head from the bullets that hadn't even been fired at us.

Breaking free of his tight hold, I put a hand on his arm and used the other one to force him to look me in the eye. "It's ok now Jackie." I said reassuringly as I rubbed my hand up and down his arm, doing what I could to make him feel safe. I had been so caught up in what I had been feeling that I didn't even realize what this must have been doing to Jack. I stood on my tip toes and pressed a soft kiss to his lips and as I pulled back Jack put his arms around me again and pulled me close, crushing me to his chest as he buried his face in my hair.

I heard footsteps in the snow as Bobby and Angel approached. "Come on!" Bobby said, slapping Jack on the shoulder.

"Did you get them?" Jack asked, turning to follow them and pulling me along with him.

"Yeah we got 'em. They killed Ma and we got 'em."

~JOM~

When we got back to the house, Jack led me inside and made me sit on the couch. "Sophie can you get her a blanket?" He asked quietly as he walked into the kitchen.

I hadn't been able to stop shaking since I had started back on the bridge, so when Sophie handed me the blanket I gladly accepted it. "Thanks Soph." I said quietly, smiling faintly as I curled up on the couch and pulled the corners of the blanket tight around me. I hadn't realized it had been so late, or early I guess, because it was now light outside and I could hear the sounds of people starting their cars and going to work.

Jack came back in the room with two steaming mugs and handed one to me before settling down next to me on the couch. "Hot chocolate." He said in response to my questioning gaze.

"With tiny marshmallows?" I asked, eyes lighting up as I brought the cup of liquid goodness up to my mouth.

"Yeah, with tiny marshmallows." Jack said smiling.

I sat up and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, "You're the best Jackie." I took a quick sip of the hot drink, relishing the feel of the hot liquid making its way to my stomach and warming me up from the inside out. I turned slightly and leaned back against Jack and he readjusted, putting his arm around me as we both sipped on the hot chocolate.

Bobby walked through the room, shaking his head at the sight of me and Jack on the couch before heading into the dining room. Sophie trailed closely behind him with a first aid kit in her hands, muttering something to herself in Spanish. "Sophie I can patch Bobby up if you don't want to." I called after her.

"No, no, you stay there. I will do it." She said shaking her head and motioning for me to stay where I was. "I just feel bad for the poor dog that had to put its mouth on Bobby."

I finished off my hot chocolate and closed my eyes, thinking I could get a few minutes of rest, but just as I started to drift off I heard the sound of tires crunching in the snow and Angel yelled, "Hey y'all police in the house."

There was a commotion in the kitchen and Sophie rushed through the living room and up the stairs, coming back seconds later with something silky looking in her hands. She shoved what turned out to be a robe into Bobby's hands and he quickly put it on before sitting down on the other side of me on the couch. I tried to suppress a smile at the sight of Bobby in the girly robe, "You look nice Bobby." I whispered.

If looks could kill, I would have been dead on the spot as Bobby shot me one of his signature glares. I felt Jack tense as footsteps approached and I squeezed his hand as Angel's voice carried into the room. "Cops are always welcome in the Mercer house. It makes us feel safe and cozy."

Officer Green let out a whistle when his eyes landed on Bobby, "Ain't you sexy?" He said, a wide smile on his face.

"Thank you." Bobby said, standing up and straightening the robe. "Jackie wanted this little number for himself, but I fought him for it."

I snorted and ducked my head to hide my smile, a smile that quickly disappeared with Green's next question. "What happened to your hand? You didn't happen to forget our little conversation at your brother's house about not interfering with our investigation?"

"Oh no no no. This is hockey, an old Mercer family tradition. You remember that don't you Green? You played hockey. The guys can be pretty rough out on that ice."

"Where's your car Bobby? It's not outside."

We all froze for a minute, but Sophie quickly gave Green an answer, "We left it at Jeremiah's."

"Yeah, Jerry drove us home." Angel added. "You know Volvo's are one of the safest cars out there. Volvo's are incredible man when there's a blizzard outside. So we…"

He was cut off when Green's weasel of a partner stepped forward, holding up a Ziploc baggie. "Hey Gretzky you know what this is?"

"A hair from your wife's tit?" Bobby asked innocently.

"Try from your thick skull. Forensics found it on a pair of contract killers we found dead this morning."

I tried to hold back laughter as Green chuckled. "Fishing for a confession with a phony hair?" Bobby shook his head, "That's an old one boys. Come on Green." He crossed back over to the couch and sat back down next to me as Green continued to laugh. "You know how I'll know when you got my hair off of my body right? When I hear the jail cell doors close behind me girls." He turned and gave me a quick wink and I smiled back at him.

"Ok then you tell me what they told you." Green asked all business again. "You think that these thugs were hired to kill Evelyn? Is that it?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about Green." Bobby said, rubbing his head.

"Wait Green. How do you go from petty thug, to contract killer? And if they were the shooters like you say, they would have never told us who they was working for anyway. Even if they got one hell of a ass whooping." Angel reasoned.

Fowler laughed to himself, crossing his arms over his chest, "You think you're pretty cute don't you? He does. Yeah, well everybody is a smart guy until I bust them in the mouth." He crossed over towards Angel quickly and Angel stood up to meet him.

I tried to get up too, but Jack held me down as Sophie got between to two hotheads and Green told Fowler to wait. "You gonna bust me in my mouth?" Angel asked, getting up in Fowler's face as he did so.

"Hey now this ain't what I'm here for!" Green shouted as he got between the two of them and pushed them apart. "Hey stop!" He yelled, when Fowler continued antagonizing Angel. "Look Bobby, if you've got something, you tell it to me and if it is something vital we will run with it, but don't try to take on Detroit by your damn self. Keep knocking on the Devil's door long enough and sooner or later somebody's gonna answer you. With that he left, but his words continued to echo in my ears as I gripped Jack's hand tightly.
