Shutting the fire truck door I ran a hand through my hair that was in a ponytail. Brett closed up the ambulance door coming over to me with a cheerful smile on her face. “So when’s the wedding future Mrs. Halstead?”

“We’ve been tossing around the idea of getting married at city hall and then doing a bigger then if I come back from deployment.”

Brett snapped back at me sharply. “You mean when you come back from deployment. I cannot have one of my closest friends dying on me now.”

“Trust me, Brett. It isn’t the way I’d like to go. “I nervously chuckled clasping my hands in front of my chest hearing my phone vibrating inside my jacket pocket. “Speaking of my soon to be husband, hey Will.”

He switched the phone call to video where I saw he was sitting in the locker room he stored his work bag in at the hospital. “Mal, I just called Jay and he said he can get all our friends together before tonight at Molly’s to tell them the big news.”

“Will, everyone pretty much already knew when I showed up to work wearing your mom’s wedding ring. I think you only have to tell your hospital work friends about the fact that we’re engaged.”

He slightly rolled his eyes at me. “Fine, fine, either way I am super excited for tonight. I only get so many more days with my favorite girl and her dog.”

“Don’t remind me, Halstead!” Brett shouted over my shoulder.

Shaking my head I put my focus back on my fiancés. “Anyway, where we’re we?”

“I just wanted to call you and say I miss and I love you. And I am having Connor come over after work to help move your stuff over into my apartment. I already talked with the landlord, and she said it was no problem that we combined into one apartment if we do not miss our payment.”

Throwing my head back I smirked knowing he had most of this figured out way before we had our last date. “You are the best. Is there something specific you want me to wear tonight at Molly’s?”

“How about that short black and red dress we got at the store the other day.” Will smirked back at me.

My face began to turn red at the thought considering what we had agreed upon when I wore said dress. “I thought that was only to be worn in the apartment when we – you know..”

“No I don’t know. You might have to say it.”

I glared at the ginger head. “No way.”

“Then I guess you won’t get to kiss me until tomorrow morning.” Will teased me with a cheeky smile across his face. He playfully chuckled trying to be all serious.

Brett grinned leaning her body against the side of the ambulance vehicle. “You two are going to make great parents one day.”

“I think we’re far beyond the discussion of babies, Brett.” I glanced back over at her.

She shrugged her shoulders before the call alarm went off meaning we had a case to get tend to. “I wouldn’t be too sure about that.”

“I’m gonna miss you, Mal.” Will smiled seeing me glancing over my shoulder knowing we had a call to answer.

Leaning up on my toes I waved bye, finally climbing up inside the passenger seat of one of the fire trucks. Will watched the trucks pull out before his phone vibrates so he ends the video call. “We need to talk about something important. It may effect your soon to be wife and you. Meet me in the hospital parking lot after your shift.” – from Jay read the text message on his phone.

Two months later – Afghanistan

Running through buildings Maxon ahead of our unit tries leading us away from the firing squad. Bullets fly over our heads with my boots splashing in mud and blood. "Mallory, we're taking up heavy fire!" Luke called out as I fired a shot at an Afghanistan who jumped down from a window trying to kill us.

Maxon barks digging away a hidden room in the bottom of a hideout. I order the rest of my team inside but a bullet gets shot into Luke's leg. "Luke!" I pull him down into the room with Kyle jumping down last. Pulling the door closed with the attached rope between his teeth. Tearing a piece of my shirt off Luke tried to talk.

"Mal go, get the others out of here-" I cut him shacking my head no with my ponytail falling over my left shoulder.

"Stop talking Luke. I'm not leaving you. If I can help you in some way I'm sure as heck going too." Kyle suddenly tugged my shirt when Luke and I are on our feet, dragging us outside with the others. "What is it-" I cut myself off collapsing into the dust hearing rounds of gunfire and an explosion ringing in my ears.

The next time I opened my eyes I felt a cold wet rag being dabbed against my forehead mintues before I was able to realize that it was my former Doctor who treated my leg when I returned home the first time. He placed the rag down on the nearest table picking up the chart that he had been taking notes down on about something. “Ms. Easton, I have been waiting for you to get some more rest. I have news I need to talk to you about.”

“What are we talking about, Dr. Owen’s?” I questioned him still slowly regaining consciousness.

He flipped over another page from his chart. “After the explosion I ran some tests just to make sure you were alright and weren’t injured. And I found something when one of my female nurses suggested a change in the physical appearance of your stomach. I have to ask when was the last time you had your period?”

“Um – I know I had it before I was deployed out here. Why do you need to know?”

Dr. Owen’s lifted his gaze up from the clipboard. “It appears that you are two months pregnant, Ms. Easton. Given the circumstances I have called you Lieutenant and he’s decided that we’re sending you home. So congratulations are in order for you and the babies father.” My mouth hung opened in utter shock where I couldn’t believe what he had just told me. I knew Will and I had slept together but I didn’t think it would only take one time for that to happen. We couldn’t possibly be parents, we weren’t even married yet.

The top players as rated by inStat for the USA v JPN game are:

1.Sofia Huerta (!)

2. Mallory Swanson (of course)

3 - tied. Casey Murphy (makes sense with those great game winning saves)

3 - tied. Kristie Mewis (tbh the only thing in in the midfield that was working the first half)

5. Naomi Girma (yeah!)

Some Kristie Mewis stats because I don't think she's getting the credit she deserves: 12 defensive challenges won (nobody else on either side had more than 7), 94% pass completion, 83 touches, 6 tackles, 3 (!) interceptions, 9 defensive recoveries, and 10 duels won out of 12.

Jailhouse Rock

Breaking Out of Acmetropolis' Highest Security Prison hadn't exactly been Docko's plan, but then again he was never much the planner.

Docko's break out is similiar to Stitch's, though between his fear and confusion it ends up being a far more bloody affair.

TLDR: When the Loonatics arrived to transport a prisoner back to their home planet, one idiot guards trigger finger leads to a mass escape after Docko copies Tech's powers in a panicked bite. Docko meets Mastermind, whom he releases in his panic. Mastermind offers him to join her and a few friends, to which he agrees.

I promise it makes sense.

The Loonatics aid was request when moving in incredibly violent, criminally insane prisoner known as Experiment D-0oC back to its home planet of Anvilania to face its upcoming trial for its crimes against humanity.

However, when they arrive, they find a very different character to move. A malnourished, terrified character who has taken to some rather harmful habits in his isolated cell.

Unfortunately, before anyone can get any answers, the prisoner's sedatives wear, causing him to jerk forward, startling the very new, very nervous guard into firing, dislodging the muzzle keeping the prisoner's mouth closed.

The prisoner, in his panic, instinctively bites down on the closest "threat" and attempts to take it out.

Today was the day Tech learned that he could regrow limbs, even after they'd been removed off his body and destroyed, or in this case, digested.

In the chaos, the prisoner slips past the guards, nearly biting Danger's head off literally when he teleports directly in front of him, and tears off the door with his newly freed and bloodied teeth.

The Loonatics chase after him after seeing that Tech's arm properly regenerates, though his armor and sleeve are notably missing.

As Docko runs around the facility, he finds himself feeling better with each step as Tech's molecular regeneration slowly restores his body from the damage it'd taken from the last year. It's not perfect, but he's functioning and able to think clearly for the first time in months.

Despite eating his way through four doors though, he still isn't any closer to an exit and these alarms are getting very annoying.

Luckily(?), he's managed to stumble across some prisoners more experienced with the intricacies of the Acmetropolis' Prisons.

Mastermind, realizes quickly that the strange puppy-like alien before her has an ability similar to Sypher's without the inflated ego, tricks him into opening her cell door (with his coyote arm being a genetic match from Tech for the palm reader and blood sample as well as the acquired muscle memory for the code).

Knowing his chances of gaining the Loonatics sympathy are out the window, he agrees to join her in breaking out, letting out Massive and Weathervane as well. (Sypher is pointedly left behind, despite his abilities because they frankly don't trusts him even if he can strip the loonatics of their powers.

Tag yourself I’m Lynn’s broken medal

[egotistival]

"yeah, when someone messes with my friends! damn right, i get mean." and its sort of cute, how adamant she is about her friends feelings. it's one of the things that actually endears people to cc - despite the fact that, generally, she's a totally unpopular. a blush, high on her cheekbones, dons her face pink and she wishes mallory would stop that whilst, simultaneously, wishing she'd never stop. the question catches her off guard just as she's taking a drink of water, and it spills just so down her chin before she carefully wipes it away. "nothing," she says, annoyed and slightly put out that she can't even talk to a pretty girl without making a damn fool of herself. she preens mentally at the fact that mallory might stay longer in town - she refuses to admit that it might be for her though. she doesn't want to get carried away. "there's an october carnival coming up!" she perks up at the mention of it. "my mom helps set up the booths every year with the committee she's in. you should... come with me." she hesitates, still not used to anyone showing her active interest and wanting to stick around.

gasps dramatically, both brows raised in astonishment. " good girl has a mean streak about her. " and yeah, mallory finds that endearing. imagines it isn't often that cc says things like this. can see the borderline embarrassment on her face. mallory personally thinks it's nothing to feel nervous over. " you've come with a whole lot of surprises, chapman. " nudges her knee with cc's playfully, maybe even a bit flirtatiously. can't be blamed for finding it attractive that someone could mindlessly accept her what she is. a killer's daughter, a father's victim, an orphan. " what else are you hiding under that sweet, pretty face ? " squints as though deeply examining. finally looks away when she's decided to say something she hasn't in a really long time. " i think i might have to stick around town longer just so i can find out. "

One Year Later

Running as fast as my feet could carry me I abandoned the building that was on fire falling down onto the ground tripping on some wood that had fallen off the house because of the fire. I groaned blinking my eyes seeing Casey rushing to my aid where he yanked me up before our bodies got thrown forward by an explosion of flames. “Easton! Ugh – are you alright?”

“Yeah. I – I think so. How are you?” I forced myself to my feet as best as I could offering him my hand helping him off the ground. Brett and Dawson had already left in their ambulance with the patients that needed o go to East Mercy hospital.

Casey removed his firefighter helmet from his head running a gloved hand through his hair. “I’m okay. I’ve been in tougher situations than what we had today.”

“Hey chatty Kathy’s let’s get back to the house. Mill’s has food going in the oven and I’m hungry!” We turned our heads in the direction of the fire truck that Kelly was climbing in the backseat.

Casey and I made our way back over to the fire truck where we made our way back to the house. Climbing out of the passenger seat my boots hit the stone concrete floor. I hung up my firefighter gear just walking around in a fire house 51 shirt, some blue jeans and my brown boots about to go get some food until my phone rang off inside my locker when I walked past it. “Hey, Halstead. I wasn’t expecting to hear a call from you this early in the day.”

“Are you Ms. Mallory Easton?” A computer operator voice responded through the phone.

“Yes. This is she. Who is this?”

“You’re call is now being transferred.” The operator answered back.

“Ms. Easton, this is Lieutenant Griffin. I have been trying to reach you for a while now.”

I ran a hand through my hair nervous to hear his voice after all this time. “I apologize for that, sir. I have gotten a new job with Firehouse 51. So, I haven’t been seeing your phone calls recently. Um, what exactly do you need to tell me about?”

“I must inform you that we need you and Maxon back for deployment.”

Slowly lowering myself down onto the wooden bench in front of my open locker I couldn’t believe what he had just said to me. “Sir, I - I have no clue what to say. I thought I was done – that I had finished my tour.”

“When Dr. Owen sent you home we believed that we had cleared everything from here. Unfortunately we had some new information come in from one of our guys. Somebody is planning on attacking the US soil.”

Sucking in a breath I felt like I was frozen in some sort of nightmare. I was finally with my best friend. I had found some more friends and gotten a new job that I was beginning to enjoy here. Now it might all get taken away from me. “Sir, how soon would I have to be deployed out?”

“I’d give it would be three to four months at the most.” He responded through the phone with a very heavy sigh meaning he didn’t care for the answer he had given me either.

“Lieutenant Griffin, when do I need to let you know that I have everything squared away on my end?”

He corrected my statement. “You have to remember Ms. Easton. This is the military you don’t have to give us notice. If we need you you’ll just have to follow the orders you’ve been assigned.”

“Yes, I understand sir. I’ll figure this out.”

He hung up the phone without another word. “I’ll be in touch. Good day.”

Sitting my phone down beside me I hit the lock button on my phone then turned it back on to show the lock screen that Will and I had taken with Maxon on our one month anniversary where we had went and done the tilt at the John Hancock Building.

“Two tickets for the 360 tilt.” Will handed asked the cashier woman at the front desk the money.

I was standing behind Will and Maxon was sitting beside me while I held his leash attached to the collar loosely in my hands. “Oh, I’m sorry ma’am. But he can’t be up there unless he is a service dog.”

“He’s actually a former Army veteran K-9. I think he meets that criteria.” I corrected her statement with a smile.

She nodded seeing Maxon wagging his tail happily at her. “Ah I see. Have a good time.”

The three of us entered the elevator with a few other people who were going up with us. Once the doors opened I led Maxon forward until we reached one of the windows and he put his paws on the glass wagging his tail happily. “Pretty neat isn’t it, Max?” He barked in response to me.

Will joined us looking out the window seeing all the city buildings from this high up. “And here I thought the hospital balcony had a view.” He chuckled in awe never being up this high.

“This is the second time I have been able to enjoy being this high off the ground. When you look out the side of a helicopter it’s not the same since you’re going off to war.” I held my mouth opened just living in the moment with the building lights shining all over the nightly windy city.

An idea popped inside the ED doc’s head where he took out his phone nudging my arm. “Let’s do a picture up here.”

“Yeah but you’re getting in it too.” I told him bending down on a knee to be level with Maxon.

Will held the phone up wrapping one arm over my shoulder. “One, two, three. Got it.” He hit the camera button a few times showing me the picture of the three of us.

“We’re pretty good together. Happy anniversary, Mal.” Will leaned down kissing me softly on the lips with a smile.

I smiled into the kiss leaning up on my toes, wrapping my fingers around the tea shirt he was wearing. “Happy anniversary, Will.”

Hearing footsteps entering the locker room I bent my head down into my knees trying to still process that phone call. I wasn’t prepared to get deployed out after getting the leg brace. And now Will and I were in a really good place, so what was he going to think now. “Hey Mallory, Mills wants to know what type of pizza you want. Woah, hey what’s wrong?”

“Huh – oh it’s nothing Brett.” I attempted to lie hoping she wouldn’t pick up on it.

She slowly came and sat down to me. “If you’re crying then it’s clearly not fine. I’m you’re friend you can tell me anything.”

“I got deployed, Sylvie.”

She covered a hand over her mouth in shock. “I’m sorry. Are you going to tell Will?”

“I don’t have much of a choice in the matter. I just know I need to tell the truth of something we’re gonna have to deal with together.” I responded to my friend.

She noticed me slowly getting up and grabbing my normal gear to go home for the evening. “Where are you going, Mallory?”

“In case the Chief or Casey ask where I went. Just say I had an emergency come up but I’ll be back tomorrow.” Shrugging on my jacket I bolted out of the room and to my car needing to see my boyfriend sooner rather than later.
