The atmosphere at sun hill station was still emotional and June had taken the news of another friend's death badly, worse than most. June was at her desk staring into space, Jim looked over to her. �June�� He whispered. �June are you alright?�
June didn't answer so Jim walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulder and slowly rubbed them. �Hey, are you alright?� He whispered
June swivelled in her chair to face him and he was saddened by what he saw, there were tears flowing down her cheeks. �Oh Jim� she said as she rested her head in her hands. �June, come with me.� He said as he helped her up.
He led her into the small interview room, as he closed the door he could hear her sobbing. �Oh Jim hold me please hold me.� She cried. He moved closer and took her into his arms. �Why are all my friends dying Jim? Perhaps it's me.�
�Don't be silly.�
�First Derek then Andrew and the others and now Cass, it's not fair
Jim, it's not fair.�
�I know,� Jim replied holding her tight.
As June sobbed, Gina walked in. �Oh sorry, didn't realise you had had a row, but if you must make up can you keep it to the privacy of your own home please because we don't want to see it.� Gina said.
�Oh can't you just mind your own business.� June shouted.
�June, Ma�am I am sorry that June is upset.�
�We are all upset Jim but we are not all sobbing in a corner.�
�Have you lost several friends this year, no I didn't think so, so just leave it.� June cried.
�I think you had better take some leave to sort yourself out.� Gina said.
�You are a mess; you are supposed to be trying to hold everything together to help the younger members of the force. Go home June.�
�Yeah come on I will drive you.� Jim smiled.
�Oh no you won't, I am already losing one member of staff from CSU I can't afford to lose another one.�
�I will only be ten minutes at the most.�
�No.� Gina replied sternly.
�It's alright Jim,� June said wiping her eyes. �I will be alright, I need the walk to clear my head.�
June turned to face Jim and slid her hand up to his face. �I will see you later.� She whispered.
�Ok, be careful,� he replied. June reached up and kissed him lightly on the lips and then the kiss turned more passionate.
�Oh please.� Gina said with disgust.
�Well you don't have to watch.� June replied as she kissed him again.
As they broke apart June whispered I love you and then she walked out.
�Right well now she's gone perhaps you will get some work done.� Gina smiled.
�Yes ma�am.�
�Right well I have a suspected racial attack for you on a 14 year old boy.�
�Ok.�
Gina left Jim to get started on the case, while June made her way home.
June decided to walk along the canal on the way home. She made her way to a bench, sat down and closed her eyes. She started thinking about all the good times she has had at sun hill, there had been many but over the last year she was struggling to think of a few. As she sat there she could sense someone behind her but before she could turn around, who ever it was blind folded and gagged her. She struggled and tried to free herself but the person was too strong.
�Stop struggling you are not going anywhere, PC Rickman tried to struggle and it didn't get her anywhere now did it.� A male voice said.
The man carried her to the car and drove off.
Meanwhile back at sun hill Jim had just finished interviewing the little boy, he sat at his desk and picked up the phone. He dialled the house to see if June was back but there was no answer, so he went to dial her mobile number however Cathy ranting and raving with Phil Hunter interrupted him; he replaced the handset and went to see what was happening.
June meanwhile was being driven to a lock up on one of the estates.
Terrified about what was going to happen to her, she felt a sudden thud. The car stopped and the man got out, opened the back door and dragged her to her feet. �Scared Sgt Auckland because you should be. Sit over there.� He shouted as he pushed her into a corner, as she landed she cut her head on a piece of wood. �Right then I am going to be nice now June, I am going to take away the gag but only if you promise not to shout, do you promise?�
June nodded.
�Ok I am glad we understand each other.� He said as he removed the gag.
�What do you want?� June sobbed.
�I thought that would be obvious I want you and now I have you.�
�Why me, I am not the normal type you go for?� June asked.
�I thought I would try something different,� he said as he put his hand on her cheek.
�The station will notice I'm not there, they will have police searching the area.�
�No they won't and that's the funny thing because they think they have caught the serial killer so they won't be looking for no one.� He replied smugly
�What are you going to do, kill me? If so just do it get it out of the way.� June shouted
�Now, now June don't get impatient, I want to have some fun first.� He said kissing her
June tried to pull away but he was holding her to tight. �They will be wondering where I am.� She protested
�No they won't because you are going to ring in and tell them you won't be in today.�
�What?� She cried.
�You heard, now I am being really kind to you don't disappoint me, I don't want any funny business.�
�Ok.� She replied taking the phone off him. She dialled CSU.
�Hello CSU Cathy Bradford speaking.�
�Cathy it�s June.� June said trying to hold back the tears. �Can I speak to Jim please?�
�What are you playing at?� The man shouted.
�Sarge are you alright?�
�Can you just get Jim please?�
�Tell her what's going on, who's this Jim?� He said as he grabbed her arm.
�Argh.�
�Sarge?�
�Cathy just get Jim,� she cried �please.�
�Ok.� Cathy said, �Jim, June's on the phone.�
Jim came to the phone, �June, oh I am glad to hear from you I was starting to get worried when you didn't answer the phone in the house.�
�Jim listen I won't be in today.�
�June what are you talking about, I know you won't Gina sent you home.
June are you alright? Where are you?�
�Don't answer that.� The man said.
�June who's that? June what's going on?� Jim said eagerly.
�Jim, remember what ever happens I love you.�
�June, you are scaring me now.�
�So that's why you wanted to speak to him, he's your lover, give me the phone you have said enough, I told you to behave yourself.�
�June!� Jim shouted
�Look June won't be coming in today or any other day in I can help it.�
The man said before hanging up.
�June!� Jim screamed, he slammed the phone down and ran out of CSU.
