Bonnie And Brave

It has been my experience that all killers make mistakes...Something that tips the cops off and eventually leads us to them....Serial Killers...Psychopaths who think they're smarter than the cops make mistakes too..They play their hand out too far....These two monsters, The now late, Hans Woode and my lethal ex-girlfriend, Emma Strand had made a bunch..

One they had left the shot glasses behind with the rum scent in it...The glass had a latent fingerprint and DNA on it which identified Hans Woode, a professional killer...Two Emma had managed to get herself photographed buying Visa and Mastercard gift cards which she used to rent rooms in various apartment buildings where the murder victims were found and now she was making her biggest mistake....

Carlotta and I called each other every night after our shifts finished, except of course on the nights when we were together.....My smartphone was on vibrate...I have Carlotta on speed dial naturally....So I pushed the number one button on my phone during the period when I was geting up and getting into the car with Emma...

Carlotta's phone rang and I'm sure she has picked it up and can hear clearly...Our entire conversation could be heard by her...plus the GPS signal coming from my phone would lead her right to where-ever Emma was taking me...I just hoped they got there in time...

"So Em... tell me...How did you dream this plan up?" I asked.

"I've been putting this plan together for years...I was just waiting for the right time..." she said as we drove.

"To kill the judge, the jurors, me...damn..I gotta admit..that poem thing was a stroke of brilliance..Like I said ,you always had style.." I said.


"I've always loved that poem.." she said.

"You did your research well." I said.

"I hired private detectives, got complete work ups on everybody involved...The grim reaper apparently  got to some people before I could." she snarled.

"Yeah like that cop who made the case.." I said.

"Yeah and some of the jurors." she said.

"How did you meet Woode?" I asked.

"In rehab...Out in California...He's a recovering Alcoholic.." she said.


"No joke?  And you buyin him rum?,Expensive Rum" I asked.

"Yeah well...He was off the wagon...Wow, the fact you even know about that rum shows me that you've done some living since I was gone...You used to be kind of a nerd...Guess Carlotta has really been schooling you" she said.

"Were you two, You and Hans...uhh you know?" I asked.

"Lovers? Yes we were..." she said.

"Well, I'm glad you found somebody Em. .Even a psychopath needs love" I said.

"Somebody for everybody...Pull over to that gas station.." She said ,not amused by my little dig.

"Huh?" I asked...

"We are out of Gas." she said... She was right...She was on E.

 "Are you serious?" I asked...

"Get out and pump the gas...Try anything funny and I'll mow you down." she said.






I got out and pumped the gas using her Visa gift card....I could've ran , but she was crazy enough to shoot at a pump and possibly blow this place sky high....I didn't want to risk any other loss of life, so I did as I was told.

II-





We pulled up on a side street behind set of row houses in the East Falls Section...

"You like this part of town don't you?" I said..

"Yeah..it's far from where I live.." she said.

"Where do you live now?" I asked..

"Nowhere you need to be concerned about." she said.

"After you do me, how do you plan to escape?" I asked..

"I have plane tickets to several different locations...I'm out...Heyyyy, you got a lot of questions ..You wearin a wire?" she asked...

She felt me up and down....she felt no wire...Lucky for me , when she found my phone..it was off...

"Alright...come on..Go inside." she said.

"Em, this is crazy...you don't have to do this?" I said.

"GO INSIDE!" she barked...

Just then, a very familiar car drove up... It was Sissy's car....Sissy leaped out...


"It's over Emma, drop your weapon..." she said..

Emma put her gun near my temple....

"Back off Sissy...Or your boy is dead...!!" she yelled...

"Emma, you don't want to do that!  Drop the gun...You won't win!" said Sissy ,who had her Glock pointing at Emma.

"I've already won!!!!....Don't tell me I can't win...This is the closing of the book!" said Emma..

I heard a trigger being pulled and heard three loud shots...Emma was hit in the side , in the chest and in her head..She spun around like a top, tossed her gun in the air and crumpled to the ground...

"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!, Damnit...Dammmit....Arghhhhhhhhh,I don't believe it...I've been shot! I've been shot....Arghhhhhhhhhhhh, Dammn it all!!" she groaned as she fell to the ground...

"Nice shootin Lieutenant...Didn't know you were such a good shot.." I said as I kicked Emma's weapon far away from her now lifeless hands..

"Actually....I'm not."  said Sissy.

Standing by the back of the car, with her glock still smoking was Carlotta.....


"You okay Baby?" she asked...

"I'm fine...." I said...I walked over to Emma's body....She was already dead.... I shook my head...

"I told you she'd kill you." I said...even though now, she couldn't hear me...

Detective Pyle drove up with a uniformed officer...They began clearing the crowd that was starting to gather...


"I'll call this in Lou." he said to Sissy who smiled weakly and nodded...

"We figured out you were the target  soon after we got to my place...I cut those detectives loose and Chica and I doubled back to your place...Figured we'd give you your greatest fantasy before your birthday." laughed Sissy....

I smiled at the mere thought of both of them in my spot for the night...

"When we got there we discovered we were too late...Found Hans Woode's body and then began hearing your phone message....We followed the GPS tracker on your phone and got here just in the nick of time."
said Carlotta...

"You sure did.." I said.

"Emma wasted her entire adult life...Angry at the world...Striking out at all the people she thought had destroyed her father and thus her family life...Maybe....Maybe Hatred is the strongest emotion..." I said...looking down at Emma's lifeless body...

"I don't know about that.....I have love for you." said Carlotta who gave me a big wet ,sloppy kiss in the lips..


"And you know I got love for you." said Sissy who kissed me on the cheek....

I smiled...


"Then again.." I said...



The three of  us burst out into laughter as a crowd gathered and police came...



EPILOUGE:

"Ohhh my God...whoooooo...that was some trick..." I exclaimed...as Carlotta and I lie across my bed...

I was exhausted...We had made sweet love close to eight times that night...There was no way either of us was going to make it to work...Besides...Sissy had given her the day off anyway...




Carlotta sat up and peeled a banana and began to eat it ,while I watched....She looked at me and giggled..

"Damn girl...I am so weak,I can't move.But you know I want to grab you and go at it again" I said.

"I told you I was going to love you real good." she said.


"You aint never lied..." I said.

"We got the day off tomorrow, When you've got your strength back...There's more from where that came from " she said as she lay back down next to me...smiling serenely...

"Yeah...I just thought about something." I said.

"What?" she asked...

"It's Sunday!  Sunday's child is Bonnie and Brave...Whatever that means.." I said laughing...

"Please Papi...No poetry...Puh lease.." said Carlotta...

I smiled at her...

"I hear ya..." I said.

Carlotta leaned over and gave me a kiss...

"MMMM...I feel like writing some poetry now!" I said...

Carlotta chuckled..."Silly.."
