Trusting Despite The Fall
Drea and Michaela find themselves trapped near a cliff during a duo case with their dogs. When a grenade is involved Michaela will have to put her life in Drea's hand . Drea just desperately hope she knows what she Is doing.
Drea and Michaela were on a mission alone without Georgie. It was one of those days where they had like three things to do at once and the Captain called in asking for her two best detectives although both had originally been fired.
They couldn't say no though as it was a job and they would get paid for it, and money had been pretty tight this month. So now they were here, back near the meth heads lake, and neither of them looked where this case was going.
It was supposed to be easy just find the guy grab him (or kill him) and go. What they didn't know is that their suspect had grenades and a gun. Which immediately made the mission more risky especially since they were in the forest.
The team of two had barely worked together without Georgie since the curse, and it felt different… they still loved each other dearly and didn't have a problem with working with one another; it was just a little awkward.
"Nala, do you smell anything girl?" Drea asks, breaking the silence. She hated being in this forest with a passion, and so did Michaela so they were going to get this done as quickly as possible.
"So Mikami, what do you say to a donut break just like old times before we were so focused on the curse." Michaela asks and Drea just smiles.
"You know donuts are my love language Stone so how could I pass it up. And then maybe we can squander some money from innocent players." Drea says, wiggling her eyebrows and Michaela laughs.
"Why not? I mean we can always use some extra cash." Michaela says before Drea tenses. The casual banter was suddenly overtaken by seriousness. "What did you hear D?" Michaela asks her friend who shushed her.
"Heavy footsteps heading our way and… hit the deck!" Drea calls to Michaela and the two pups they brought with them as a blast of orange flutters around them.
"Don't get up any of you or your dead." A deep voice says and Dreafeels the cool gun on her neck. Her training immediately kicks in though and she knocks the gun away with her foot and Michaela quickly grabs it.
"Michael Conner you are under arrest for the murder of Emma Princeton. What you say cand and will be used in the court of law." Michaela started as he grabs his hand putting one of the handcuffs on but before she can get the other one on the man threw another grenade and pushed her away.
Drea just takes a breath looking around in a panic they were trapped near a ledge the only way to get away from the grenade was down… Drea had an idea but she doubted Mick would go for it.
"Not so strong now. Now we're all going to die a horrible death, and it's all because you came to find me. I'm not going back to prison." The guy calls out and Drea looks at cliff again
"Michaela jump on my count." Drea calls out and Michaela looks at her partner in disbelief. It was a fifty foot drop that would most likely kill her.
"Are you crazy? I'll die if I jump! It is so far down." Michaela told Drea who continued shooting from where she was behind the tree, but it still wasn't a good shot from where she was. She would still hit Michaela if she tried too hard.
"Yeah, why don't you jump? It's a quicker way to die." The guy sneers and Nala and Miracle growl from where they are and Drea groans her necklace glowing brightly in her irritation.
"Mick, don't listen to him, listen to me. We will die up here! You'll be fine, I won't let you fall." Drea says letting her gaze meet Michaela in a reassuring way. "I've got your back always." Drea reassures again and Michaela nods.
Drea nods at the dogs who ran to her and nods looking at Michaela and putting her hand up counting down and once she gets to one she disappears and Michaela jumps. Drea shot the man in the leg before jumping off the ledge herself right as the explosive went off positioning herself so that she could go faster then Michaela before turning into a dragon and diving faster before stopping abruptly under Michaela, her wings hitting the sides of the rocks. Drea just ignores it; her main focus was on making sure Michaela landed safely on her back, and she did.
"Drea your… a dragon." Michaela says and Drea rolls her eyes, flapping her wings again to soar higher. Michaela just holds on noticing the two dogs that were in Drea's claws.
"I'm aware of that, I told you I got your back didn't I." Drea asks tiredly she could feel the light of her necklace flickering. She had used too much of her energy and she could tell it. She just quickly flew over to the car dropping the two puppies on the ground and letting Michaela down gently. She then turns back into a human and immediately grimaces as she shifts her arm.
"You okay Mick?" Drea questions with a huff of tiredness. Michaela just nods looking at Drea with a bit of awe
"Fine thanks to your quick thinking, but how the heck can you turn into a dragon?" Michaela asks, s getting in the driver's side of the car to Drea's relief.
"Apparently as long as I see it I can turn into whatever animal I want. " Drea told Michaela who smiled. Before playfully bumping Drea's arm with little force, but bbn it was enough to make Drea grimace. Causing Michaela to immediately look over to see bruise that went to Drea's shoulder to her elbow and grimaces herself.
"That looks like it hurts. What did you do to your arm?" Michaela asks and Drea just looks at her arm again. It was really sore and tender. She honestly wouldn't be surprised if she sprained something.
"When I turned into a dragon my wings were too big. So they hit some of the rocks hard. When I turned back it apparently translated into this. I'll be fine, though probably just a minor sprain." Drea says breezily, not missing a beat.
"You sure know a lot about work related injuries. Georgie told me your pretty good with sutures and can deal with flesh wounds even better than someone at the academy is taught. Where'd you learn it from?" Michaela asks and Drea just smiles.
"When you share a room with your medically obsessed younger sister for fifteen year and is her personal dummy you learn a thing or two. Even if I didn't want to know back then. But I probably drove her nuts when I interrogated her everyday, especially after she started dating people." Drea says and Michaela laughs.
"I wish Ben and I could have gotten that ability, maybe then he wouldn't be a pain in the butt." Michaela says and Drea laughs.
"Every sibling is a pain at times. That makes us siblings trust me Michi and I hated each other. At times we were polar opposite so we clashed a lot even though we loved each other. But without her I probably wouldn't know the stuff that has kept me alive all this time." Drea says and Michaela smiles softly.
"Yeah… Do you still want donuts?" Michaela questions and Drea nods her head.
"Of course I do, but maybe we'll have to make squandering money for another day cause this is my dominant hand and it hurts like heck." Drea says and Michaela laughs at her friend.
"Deal!" Michaela says pulling into the nearest donut place. It was a crazy case as usual, but at least they were alive.
