The Doctor Makes A House Call.

Detective Sharrone Stokes sat quietly as the gunman,identified as Cedric ''Sudden Death"Mayfield stood holding his glock on everyone...He had picked up hers and Duke's gun and stuffed them both in his pants...

"You got nowhere to go...You're bleeding....You're getting weak....and we know who you are and that you're wanted for three murders....You might as well give it up man." she said.

"I'm not going to give up anything...and I'm going to get out of here and out of this town just as soon as a doctor gets here and patches me up." he said.

"Who are you kidding?  It's over man...We got this entire line covered...The minute you leave this train..You're a sitting duck...Come on man, stop wasting everyone's time...Give it up...We know everything.."said Duke..

"You don't know anything...You got no proof.." he said.

"You really want to play that game? You're a suspect in three homicides and now you're holding this train hostage...You might as well kill yourself...You're done.." said Duke..

"SHUTTTTTTTTT UP!!!! SHUTTTTTTTTTTTT UP!!!!! I WILL NEVER KILL MYSELFFFF!!!" he screamed...

"Okay...Okay...just be cool..."said Sharrone..

"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he screamed....and he cocked his gun and aimed at both her and Duke...

"No...Don't...For god sake don't fire....They hear a gunshot and they'll rush this train and kill everybody..Please don't shoot that gun!!!" she said.

He paused....He was bleeding profusely and sweating profusely...

"Pass me your phone.."he said..

She passed it to him....he star sixty nined....

"This is Captain Edward Cantrell." came a voice....

''EDDIE BOY...WHERE IS MY DOCTOR???" he screamed..

"We just ordered you 28 pizzas a while ago....A doctor may take a while..You know they don't like to make house calls.." said Captain Cantrell...

"DO YOU THINK IT'S FUNNY EDDIE BOY?  I WANT A DOCTOR ON THIS BITCH AND I WANT IT NOW!!! NOWWW!!! NOWWWWWWW!" he screamed...

"Alright Mayfield..One is coming...A station down....I promise..." he said.

"DON'T SCREW WITH ME...AND I WANT YOU TO PERSONALLY COME WITH HIM....YOU DON'T COME..I SWEAR I'LL EXECUTE YOUR TWO DETECTIVES.."he said.

"Let me speak to Duke!" said Ed Cantrell..

"HELLL NO....I'M RUNNING THIS SHOW NOT YOU...JUST GET ME MY DOCTOR!" he said.

II-

We had all joined Tyriq and Sharon at the El station that was two stops down..It was the last station before the train went into the Subway....
''Ed what have you got planned?" asked Sissy.
"It's a good Plan Sissy...A plan that will free Duke and hopefully won't get anybody killed...Sharon you still got eyes on them?" he asked..

Sharon was in the Mobile FBI Crime Lab..It had monitors in it...From there we could see a live video of Duke and Sharrone..

"Yes...we can see them...We know where everybody is..." she said.



"Papi I am afraid.." said my wife, Carlotta..
I hugged her...

"Don't be...If Cantrell's plan works..Nobody will get hurt..." I said...Though I didn't know what Cantrell's plan was..

"At any rate..We have to make our play now or we'll lose visual and it'll be harder to track him in the Subway." said Tyriq.

"This is really cutting things close." said Jimmy ,nervously punching his hand...

"Wow...Here comes the train...This is it." said Sirena..

Ed Cantrell turned to a man who looked like a Doctor...He had a first aid kit...
"You Ready to Rock and Roll?" he said.

"Ready as I'll ever be." he said..

"Okay here comes the train...let's go." he said.

"You're coming Captain?" he asked..

"Yeah...He demanded that I be on the train with you." said Ed Cantrell..


"Edward no!" said Sissy...surprised at her sudden concern...Ed Cantrell smiled...He touched her cheek,For a small moment the two stared at each other...

"Relax darlin...I got this...Watch and learn.." he said and softly touched her cheek...I had to admit...The man was cool as a cucumber...

III-


The train pulled into the station....

Ed Cantrell and The Doctor entered the train and looked around...

"That's far enough...So you're Eddie boy huh?" he said.

"And you're Mayfield...Look..I brought you your food...and I brought you a doctor...Let these people go..."said Ed Cantrell...

"Not a chance.." he said and reached into Ed Cantrell's suit jacket and took his side arm out of his shoulder holster...He patted him down and took his back up piece....He then put his glock to Ed Cantrell's head..

"I don't like you Eddie Boy....I ought to blow your brains out...." he said. Those were his last words on Earth!

While he was talking...The Doctor , who was actually, Plain Clothes Officer Brian Gurly ,went in his bag and produced a gun!!.....Sharrone produced her back up piece...They both nodded at each other and on cue fired at Cedric Mayfield...The Doctor's shot went right between his eyes, exiting out of the back of his head....Sharrone's shot hit him in the chest...At any rate..Cedric "Sudden death" Mayfield was dead suddenly ,before his body hit the El floor...People gasped and screamed ,blood was on the window and the floor...

"Alright..Everybody out of here...Now!!.."said Ed Cantrell...As all of the passengers left the train...He looked at Duke and smiled..

"You Alright Duke?  Sharrone??" he said.

"Never better Captain." said Duke..

''Alright...I told you Old Eddie has a few tricks up his sleeve."said Cantrell.

"Indeed."said Duke smiling.

"I'm fine Captain..."said Sharrone...

Sissy ran to Duke first...She hugged him...

"You crazy,crazy man...Don't you ever do something like that again without me.." she said....laughing and crying at the same time......

"How you hangin ace?" said Tyriq..hugging and high fiving his closest friend on the force.

"Like I said Rico...Never better.."he said.  Carlotta,Jimmy,Sirena and Hop all surrounded him and hugged him.

"We wrapped up the case...Duke..We got both co-conspirators in custody.." said Carlotta..

Duke looked at Carlotta, Jimmy,Sirena and Hop and smiled...

"Outstanding...Proud of you youngins..."he said.

I walked over to him...

"Well man..Another case wrapped up." I said and hugged him...

"Yup Keith...Cantrell is the truth.!!..That and this guy wasn't too bright..."said Duke...

Detective Sharrone Stokes walked over to Duke....

"Nice seeing you again Duke..." she said.

"Same here." he said.

"You got a pretty solid unit..Maybe I can hang out with you guys under different circumstances.." she said..

Duke laughed...

"Hopefully so." he said.

"Someone is here to see you...Your wife... " she said.

From a distance...Duke saw Hazel running towards him

"Be well Duke." she said.

"You too Sharrone.." he said.

Hazel ran into Duke's arms and kissed him passionately...

''Ohhh daddy,I was so afraid.."she said.
"No Reason to be...Piece of cake." he said...hugging Hazel and kissing her passionately again.....

Paramedics had now removed the dead body of hitman, Cedric Mayfield..


 There was still a crowd of police personel around...Sharon and FBI agents...Sissy,Ed Cantrell and police officers...Me, Carlotta, Jimmy,Tyriq, Sirena, Hop and a throng of media...

I saw Duke look around for Sharrone... She was gone...He and Hazel walked toward her car...He had been through a lot...he deserved to be alone with his woman tonight.




EPILOUGE-



Dr.Ira Goldberg was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison for his insurance scam and conspiracy to commit murder.....His partner, Tammy Bradley was sentenced to 30 years in Prison..


Josies Bar was jumping tonight...All of us decided to hang out...It had been quite a case..We had put two insurance cheats away and had taken out a dangerous killer...

Hazel and Dukesat in a booth by themselves,kissing each other like two lovesick teenagers..

Gus the bartender and owner observed them and then looked at Carlotta and I who were also kissing just a little bit....
"You know I have two empty rooms upstairs..." he said and winked....

"They earned it Gus...we had a big week this week."laughed Sissy, who was sharing a booth with her husband,Eddie C..And Angie and her husband, Jimmy Barlow..
"Yeah...I read it in the papers....Heard that guy you killed on the train is responsible for 12 murders in Seattle."he said.

"No Grass grows under your feet Gus...Yeah we sent them his guns and they got ballistic matches ,DNA and fingerprints that positively tied him to about 12 contract killings for various people...Seattle P.D. rounded up all of his clients...They were most grateful."said Tyriq who had both of his arms around his wife Sirena...


A barmaid brought us Barbecued Wings, Shrimps and Beers and we all sat together , watching the crowd...
Hop and Sharon joined us and shared a booth with Carlotta and Me...

"Wow...It's nice ..All of us hanging out like this." said Hop....

"Guys...If no one is doing anything for the holidays...You are all welcomed over Eddie C. and my house for Christmas Dinner..." said Sissy...

We all cheered and raised our glasses..Except for Duke and Hazel who were in a deep passionate embrace in the corner..

Carlotta looked at them and smiled..


"Uhhh, We'll inform them tomorrow." she said..

We all busted out in gales of laughter!
