12:01 AM- Saturday
Across the street from ten year old Billy's house, a loud crash was heard. He jumped out of bed scared that the monster from under his bed was finally going to get to him. He ran out of his room to his parents bedroom. His feet slapped on the wooden floors. The door to his parents room was locked. He banged on the door yelling for mommy. After a minute of pounding on the door, Billy's dad flew the door open half awake.
"What do you want Billy. Im trying to sleep and i have work tomorrow early. If its about the monster uder your bed, just tell it to scram. Worked for me all the time when i was your age" Billy's dad motioned to close the door but Billy stopped it.
"No i heard a crashe from across the street dad. Trust me i did. In that weird building across the street" Billy waa still breathing hard. His dad came out of his room and walked to Billy's room and looked out the window. The light was on in the building. It never was. It was abandoned. Billy's father shook it off. He rubbed his eye's and started to shut the window when he heard a loud bang from the old building. He stopped what he was doing. He poked his head out the window feeling the cold december breeze. He put his head back in the house and closed the window.
"I will handle this Billy but you go back to sleep, got that? I can tell auntie Becky not to stop by tomorrow and you wont get your present from Mexico" after saying that Billy plopped into bed while his father covered him up. After doing that he went to the kitchen to grab the phone and report it to the police of a break in.


12:10 AM Saturday- ST. Paul Police Department
Eddie Reynolds was seated at his desk and on his computer playing frogger when he got a call.
"This is Detective Reynolds. What seems to be the problem?" He paused his game and took out his notepad. The conversation went on with a lot of Mhm's and ok's. Reynolds hung up the phone, shut down his computer and went to the exit of the police station and hopped in his police car.
Getting there ten minutes later parked in front of the old abandoned building, Reynolds got out of his vehicle and slowly walked up to the doorstep. He didnt bother ringing or knocking on the door with the fact no one lived here. Walking in with precaution the first thing he saw was the main entrance of the building trashed. What was left of the building. Lamp knocked over. Boxes sprawled on the ground with random items fallen out of the boxes. Reynolds motioned for his Radio.
"We have a possible 211. Im going to search the rest of the building" With hand around his holster in case the intruder was still in the building, he cautiosly crept up the stairs. He could not hear a thing, not even a mouse scurring across the floor. Who knows whats in here Reynolds thought to himself as he checked every office in the upper level. Nothing. Thinking he was done with the search, when he got to the bottom step of the stairs he saw a figure running out the building and fast. Reynolds put his jets on.
"Freeze SPPD!" He always felt weird saying that. By the time he reached the entrance he lost the burglar. He slammed his hand on the door. He called it in to the police station.


3:10 PM- Saturday Reynolds Patrol Duty
Reynolds circled the old warehouse building at leas eight times but on his ninth time he saw the figure again move into the building. He drove around the block and parked. He got out and slowly peeked in the old building. He heard rummaging, and and whispering. Does he have a partner? Reynolds asked himself. He moved slowly in the building keeping quiet and out of sight. It turned out this intruder didnt have a partner and was just talking to himself. What was he looking for. Reynolds could see the intruder in front of him with his back to Reynolds.
"Dont try anything stupid, Eddie" Reynolds put down his gun with a shocked face. He knew exactley who this man was. His old gang partner back when he was in college. He became a detective to clear his name. Eddie put his gun down.
"Ricky, what are you doing here. You were never interested in this building all the years we roamed this street. But now im beginning to think you are not here for anything in here are you?" Eddie asked his former friend. Ricky turned toward Eddie and stared at him.
"No. I came for you shatter knee Eddie. Or should i say detective Eddie. What happend to you man. You became soft. You little bastard" Ricky laughed. Eddie shook his head.
"That was a long time ago. What we did was stupid and childish. Im surprised i even was able to become a cop with my record" Eddie started to get angry. He never anticipated seeing him again. And he didnt want to. Ricky took a gun from his holster and pointed it at Eddie. Eddie stepped closer.
"I am not scared of you, Ricky. Shoot me. I dare you. You dont have the guts. Murder wasnt out thing" Eddie kept his cool.
"You will when i shoot you. Unless you come back" Ricky took another gun out of another holster and held it out to Eddie.
Eddie stepped back.
"Come on i know you want to" Ricky said showing his pure white teeth. What an idiot Eddie thought. Surprising Eddie Ricky cocked his gun and putting his finger on the trigger. Before Ricky could pull the trigger, he already had two bullet holes in his chest. He fell to the ground. Eddie stood over him with his spare pistol that Ricky taught him to do.
"And thats for taking my girlfriend in college"
Eddie slept like a baby slept like a baby that night.
