[indent][color=darkgray][b]LINCOLN TUNNEL // HUDSON YARDS[/b][/color][/indent][indent][indent][indent]Bates sighed and then turned towards Badger. He was disappointed that his partner actually thought those people spread the virus. [color=feadbe]"She meant it figuratively. And as for the lost civilian, leave them be. They have already suffered enough."[/color]

[color=c7c7c7]"Our politicians failed us when we needed them the most. Now, it's up to us to fix their mistake." [/color]Mckinney tried to crack a smile but lost consciousness. At first, Bates thought that she had lost too much blood for the wounds; however, after examining her, she was barely alive. So, he grabbed a nearby stick and shoved it into her wound, causing her to awake with a bloodcurdling scream. Quite frankly, she deserved worse but he needed to know about the NYPD's fate. There was no way that the entire department became corrupt. 

Bates stood over her. [color=feadbe]"What happened to the rest of the force?"[/color]

Mckinney looked up at the agent and tried once more to laugh. [color=c7c7c7]"My brothers in blue are working to restore what was taken for us. You will see them soon enough."[/color]

Firefly had enough of the disgraced officer and crouched down. [color=feadbe]"By going back against what your brothers stand for, you have failed this city and your badge. No amount of loss can justify killing innocents becaus-"[/color]

[color=c7c7c7]"Failed?!"[/color] Tears were rolling down Mckinney's face as she looked up at the agent. [color=c7c7c7]"I was on duty when the city was falling apart! When the degenerates were bitching about every little thing we did! When... my family died from the virus. I have been loyal to this badge and my friends! Everyone that betrayed us warrants a painful death. Just like the ones you and your friend will get."[/color]

Suddenly, police sirens were heard near as several gunshots rang out in quick succession. The missing citizen fell to the ground on the intersection, bleeding to death. Mckinney tried to say something else, but she collapsed for the blood loss. Bates got his weapon ready for a possible fight, but he preferred to not kill any more police officers. He scanned the area for an escape route and found one. It was an alleyway filled with trash bags and other garbage, but it was an ideal hiding spot. He ran towards it to make sure the path was clear and then called out his partner. 

[color=feadbe]"Over here before they spot you!"[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]
