"I need a gurney" Drew yells
"Drew I got this one" Jordan says. "TC she look familiar?"
"It's her, Lexi . Isn't she a cop" TC questions.
"Yeah and Drew you better take damn good care of my partner. Wilson she's one fine cop" Rick one of Drews friends and fellow army man says.
"Didn't know she was back in town" Jordan responds. "And I'm her best friend. TC did you know she was back"
"No" TC bluntly responded working on his friend with Drews help.
"Let me go, Alexandra . I'm just trying to help you" Drew says to the woman who had just regained consciousness before him.
"Stop hurting me" Alexandra cried out.
"Hey, Lex, Lexi, listen to me." Rick says walking over to his parter in beating crimes side. "This is my friend Drew. Lexi he's my best friend and I'd trust him with my life. I also have your friends TC and Jordan here too. They just want to help you ok"
"Rick what happened to her" TC asks.
"Like you, she likes the energy rush, she was undercover still is undercover actually. And that's why you need to keep quiet about her being a cop" Rick says TC rolling his eyes.
"What's her UC name?" Jordan asks.
"Autumn Torres, she's hired protection/muscle." Rick says.
"Of course she is" TC remarks.
"I need to get back out or they're gonna think something's up" Alexandra says getting up.
"Rick she should stay" Drew says.
"I'm not her boss so I can't force her to stay" Rick explains.
"How'd you get the bruises" Drew asks.
"Deal gone bad" Lexi explains.
"Hear me out before y'all snap my head off. Drew you have skill in martial arts, and shooting. You're also a doctor, maybe he can go undercover for a bit with Lexi" Rick suggests.
"Your joking right" Lexi asks.
"Rick I have to agree with Lexi. You have to be kidding with me" Drew says. "I mean I'm not a cop"
"As your boss Drew I'm recommending you help them" Jordan says "But as your friend all I can say is if you do, get your ass back here safe once your done."
"Rick you owe me" Drew says walking outta Lexi hospital room.

"Well I lost a man yesterday thanks to you and he's the best I know I just didn't bring him around cause I couldn't deal with loosing him. And he's a doctor so if one of us gets shot or hurt he can patch us up, he knows people who work at the hospital so he can get them to help us off the books" Lexi says snapping.
