ALL IN A DAYS WORK Name: Kat Email: bluey509@hotmail.com Declaimer: I don’t own any of them. Authors Notes: this is my first Stingers fanfic so don’t expect it to be too good. Feedback would be great and it might make me finish the story quicker! Thanks to Matt who read this already. And it’s dedicated to Amy. That’s enough from me heres the story….. ALL IN A DAYS WORK 'Right everyone listen up' Mac yelled, trying to get everyone’s attention. Danni, Ange, Oscar and Church turned around as Mac began the brief for the morning. 'Right everyone, there has been a spate of armed robberies in the Doncaster area and Hollester want us to put someone in there.' 'Where exactly are these armed robberies taking place' Oscar asked. 'At a supermarket, they want us to put an operative working at the register...' Mac answered only to be interrupted by Pete. 'What a checkout chick. There is no way I’m going undercover as a checkout chick, besides isn't that a bit small time for us Mac.' 'Don't worry Pete they want a female... so Ange? Danni? Who wants to do it.' Ange and Danni both went to answer at the same time but Ange got in first. 'Sorry Mac we would but we're both busy on the Williams case and Oscar's helping us with surveillance. 'That’s ok, I guess I will have to do it, I used to be a checkout chick a long time ago so it shouldn't be that much different. Pete your going to have to help with surveillance.' Pete nodded his response and Mac continued. "Alright Oscar, Ange and Danni you guys can go, Pete we'll go over these notes in my office.' *Mac's Office* 'So Mac's what’s the story with this guy?' 'Well this guy has robbed the same supermarket nearly every night for the past two weeks. The guys at Doncaster police station have tried to get him but so far they have failed.' 'So how come it has taken them so long to get us involved?' 'Well at first they thought they could get him but last night while he was robbing the supermarket he stabbed the girl working behind the register, she later died in hospital and they realised that they couldn't wait any longer.' ' So when do you want to start this?' 'Well could you get the surveillance ready by 7:00 tonight?' 'Would I ever let you down Mac?' 'Ok so we go in tonight.' The robberies all took place around 8:00 p.m. each night so Mac and Pete decided that if they got there at about 6:00pm it would give them enough time to get set up. *Later that night* Mac and Pete got to the supermarket at 6:00pm like they planed. It only took Pete half an hour to get the surveillance set up but it took Mac a lot longer to get taught how to use the register, turned out the registers were allot different to when she used to work there. Pete wired Mac up so that they could talk to each other. At 7:00pm they were ready to get started. It was a pretty quiet night at the supermarket so for most of the time Mac just had to stand there and look busy. While she was cleaning the register she was working at she whispered in to her wire 'Who would have thought that after all this police training I would be back working as a checkout chick.' ' You know you love this job Mac and besides your probably getting paid more than any other checkout chick there' ' I wouldn't bet on that' Peter laughed and then told her to get back to work. Mac had been there for four hours now, it was nearly 11:00pm. They both figured that the guy wouldn't show and they were about to rap things up when Pete looked over to the shop entrance and saw a guy enter that matched the description of the offender. 'Mac someone just entered the store that matches the description of the offender' Pete said so Mac could hear him. 'He is wearing black trackpants, a white t.shirt and a black adidas beanie' 'Thanks Pete I can see him now, lets just hope that he comes to my register' About ten minutes late Mac saw the guy coming towards her register with a basket full of junk food. She whispered into her wire so the guy couldn't see her. 'He’s coming Pete' The guy walked up to Mac’s register and started unloading his food. 'Hi how are you?' Mac said trying to sound polite. He guy didn't answer he just nodded. Mac scanned all his items and put then into bags. 'That will be $27.80 thank you' Instead to pulling out his wallet the guy pulled out a knife. Mac screamed giving Pete the signal that he had pulled out a knife. Mac tried to look really scared even though she knew this would happen. The guy then told her to open the register and to put all the money into a plastic bag she did so and then gave the guy the bag. He grabbed the bag off her and ran out of the store. Mac quickly jumped over the register and ran after him while she was running out of the store she yelled into her wire, 'Quick Pete he is running out of the store, he has a knife and a bag of money, I’m going after him' ' I’m on my way Mac' Pete said before jumping out of his car and running towards the shops entrance. Mac ran out of the store and saw the guy about 10 metres in front of her, Pete still wasn't there and she knew that if she didn't do anything now he would get away. So she yelled out 'hey wait' without really knowing what she was going to say next. The guy turned around shocked as to why this lady had followed him out of the shop. Before either of them had time to say anything else Pete ran towards them with his gun raised and yelled out 'police don't move' the guy panicked and quickly ran back and grabbed Mac, holding the knife at her neck. Pete tried to negotiate with the guy 'come on mate let the lady go, you don't want to hurt her it is only going to make things worse, come on put the knife down' it didn't matter what Pete said the guy wouldn't put the knife down, nor would he let go of Mac. Mac was really scared now, they didn't have the situation under control and she was scared that this guy would do something stupid. Church tried again to get the guy to let Mac go. 'Come on mate just let her go, we can sought this out' the guy started to get really anxious now 'nah, we have nothing to sought out, there is on way I’m going to jail for this and right now taking this chick hostage is the only way I’m going to get away.' just when he finished saying that about three police cars sped into the car park behind Pete, now the guy really started to panic he knew there was no way of escaping now. He knew his only option was to make a run for it. He quickly pushed Mac to the ground and started running but as he had pushed Mac to the ground, the knife he was holding punctured the skin on her neck and as he pulled the knife away it made a huge cut up the side of her neck. Blood started gushing from her neck as she fell to the ground she tried to stop the blood by holding her hand over the cut but the cut was to big and her hand was shacking because she was so scared. Pete had seen the guy cut Mac and before he rushed to her side he quickly shot the guy in the leg so he couldn't get away. The uniformed police ran to get the guy as Pete ran as fast as he could to help Mac. He knelt down next to her and quickly put his hand over her cut he held it as tight as he could trying to stop the bleeding. She was loosing allot of blood and he was really starting to worry. 'Quick get call the ambos, officer down' he yelled to pretty much anyone that was listening. Mac was getting really weak and was nearly unconscious. 'Come on Mac stay with me, you can do it, come on just keep your eyes open' Pete tried to keep her awake. Mac took one final look at Pete then closed her eyes. Pete had tears in his eyes and was now yelling at her 'come on Mac don't leave me, open your eyes for me Mac, come on I don't want to loose you' the ambos pulled up and quickly rushed over to Mac. Pete was still crying terrified of what might happen. Well that’s the end of this part PLEASE tell me what you thought and if you want me to write another part. *KAT* ALL IN A DAYS WORK part 2 Hey everyone well this is the second and last part to my fic o hope you all liked the first part. Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback I really appreciated it!! A big thanks to Monika, whose encouragement made me finish this today. If any of you haven’t read the first part e-mail me and I can send it to you again. This fic is dedicated once again to Amy. Ok that’s enough from me, here’s the story. I’ve put I bit in from the first part in case you can’t remember how it finished. ALL IN A DAYS WORK part-2 The ambos pushed Pete out of the way so they could treat Mac. 'She's unconscious and not breathing but she does have a pulse, put a pressure bandage on that gash and lets get her in the ambulance quick, she has lost allot of blood' one of the paramedics said to the other as they quickly rushed Mac to the ambulance so they could get her to the hospital. Pete stood there shocked and crying as they drove Mac away in the ambulance. Then he quickly ran to his WRX, he put the sirens on then and followed the ambulance to the hospital. *At the hospital* The paramedics had been met at the hospital by the doctors and Mac had been taken straight to get operated on. They would have to stop the bleeding, stich up her neck, give her more blood and hope that there wasn’t any ligament damage. Pete sat in one of the plastic hospital chairs, in a white corridor with his head in his hands. He had tears in his eyes and he just wished that he be in there with to doctors trying to do something to help Mac. He had already received the standard talk from the paramedics saying “you did everything you possibly could, if you hadn’t stopped the bleeding as much as you did she wouldn’t still be here” but that didn’t matter to Pete, no matter what any of the doctors or paramedics said, he didn’t care he just wanted to get in there and help Mac, he wanted to make sure she was ok. He didn’t want to loose her not now, not after he finally figured out how he felt towards her. Pete was woken up a couple of hours later by a tall skinny doctor in a white coat. Pete couldn’t figure out how he possibly managed to fall asleep when he was so worried about Mac. “Excuse me” the doctor said “are you Peter?” “Um …yeah, yeah that’s me” Pete said anxiously getting up to see what the doc could tell him about Mac. “You were marked on Ellen’s records as being the person to talk to if something happened to her.” “Yes, Is she going to be ok?” Pete said getting angry that the stupid doctor wouldn’t hurry up and tell him what was going on. “ She’s in a private room down the hall why don’t I take you down there” as Pete and the doctor walked down the corridor to Mac room the doctor continued to explain Mac’s condition. “She’s still unconscious and she has lost a lot of blood, we have already given her some more blood and we are continuing to do through a drip. We stitched up her neck and she was very lucky not to have any ligament or muscle damage. So even though she is unconscious she is still in a stable ondition.” The doctor concluded as the two men rounded to corner into Mac’s room. Pete was taken back when he first saw her, she had needles and tubes sticking out from everywhere on her body and she had a huge bandage that wrapped around her entire neck. The doctor left the room knowing that Pete would properly want some time alone with Mac. Pete slowly walked towards Mac’s bed. It didn’t look like the Mac he knew she was very pale. As he approached her bed he lent down and kissed her, careful not to move any of the needles or tubes out of place. He sat down in the chair next to Mac’s bed and held her hand in his. From the next couple of days Pete never left Mac’s bedside. As much as the other tried to convince him to go home he wouldn’t, he didn’t want to leave her in case she woke up and he wasn’t there. One day he was sitting in the chair next to Mac's bed holding her hand, the doctor had mentioned to him that he should talk to her and that when you talk to people who are unconscious they usually here you and pull through. So Pete figured he had nothing to lose by trying this. So he just started talking to her. “Well Mac what can I say. I’ve sat here next to your bed for the last couple of days just waiting to see your eyes open. Every second hoping and wishthat you would just open your eyes. I’ve also done a lot of thinking… um…the truth of the matter is… I don’t want to loose you, I don’t know how I could possibly go on with out you, Mac. Your everything to me and it scares the hell out of me to think that I might not have you any more. Please Mac don’t leave me… I love you… it’s the truth Mac and after all these year I’ve finally told you, the only thing is, you probably can’t even hear me” “yes I can” Mac said with a dry and croaky voice Pete quickly turned around to face Mac he could believe that he was a wake. Excited, he quickly jumped up, gave Mac a hug, as be he could while she was lying down and he also kissed her. “so did you hear everything I said” Pete asked, hoping that she had “every word… I love you too” Mac replied smiling from ear to ear. Pete was just as happy as she was. He jumped forward and gave her another kiss. * 1 year later * Mac’s fine now, it didn’t take her long to recover at all and she was back to work pretty quickly after her ordeal. Pete was there to help her recover quicker. Mac and Pete are still together but no one else at work knows about it. THE END Hoped you liked it. Please let me know what you thought.
