Ahlee leaves the gas station where the bus had dropped her and few others and looks around wondering where to start, who to ask for help and sighs, after all she had a tongue and a tongue you could get any information but with what happened in the last stop where she was robbed, she was now more careful even though she had nothing left when while walking around, she notices a man sitting by a bench and avoids to look at him and keeps walking for some reason maybe it was safier to ask help or information to a woman, when she notices one, standing by the road, which made her eyes go wide but shrugs and approaches "Hello?" she says first, the woman seemed being daydreaming "Could you help me please? I need few informations" she says and looks around, having heard a woman she didn't know from where and looks back at the one in front of her.
Meanwhile voices are heard from the building of the police station...
Ann Stone rolls her eyes behind her aviators at Dessy and shrugs a shoulder at her "Well I dont know what it is. There are people out there who have been in this town a lot longer than you and have never been arrested. Yet somehow both of you keep on getting arrested even though you both dont do anything wrong. Weird huh?" she gives up on talking to Dessy and turns to head back out the cell "Yeah. Call her a doctor or whatever. I need coffee" she says to Matt Stark who just groans. "That's an interesting thing to say seeing how the Captain and I saw you throw a knife at one of them." He sees Ann coming out of the cell and sighs "Fine. But save me a drop or two. My head is killing me today." Ann just ignores Dessy, not turning to look at her, just giving up on her pretty much. She just hoped the baby wouldnt get hurt because of her. She gives Stark a tired grin and shrugs "No promises" before she starts towards the stairs, yawning a little. Shit, she still had those three incidents to write up. Some chick that got raped three times by half a dozen different people. Some people had all the luck.
Matt put a finger to his lips and shushed her like how you do to a classroom full of rowdy children. "Hush you. I'll call you for a doctor" and looks over at Tae who seems to in a trance "Does he need one too?" and he unclips the radio from his belt.
Back to the woman in front of Ahlee daydreaming in middle of the road...
Katrina Bourne gets out of a trance from thinking on personal matters and she looks to the side hearing a woman's voice calling out to her. Her eyes showed blank expressions but being her cuteous self she decided to help out the lady. "Yes? You need any help?" she said lowly with blinking a bit.
Meanwhile in the police station..
Matt Stark glances at Tae and then depresses the button on his radio. "HGH, this is Romeo 31237 requesting a doctor at HPD. Two inmates requiring medical attention." After sending it, he looks at O "Happy?" He just shakes his head and mutters "Get barked at if you treat them like dogs, get barked out if you treat them kindly. Fuck them all" and would just head upstairs.
Back to Ahlee and the woman on the road...
Ahlee waits for a long moment when she finally notices she was in front of the police station, how lucky was she and when she gets ready to walk inside the station she hears the woman finally answering and she breathes deeply somewhat relieved and smiles "Yes, I am looking for a place I can spend the night, you see i'm new in town and need to find a job and ..." sighs for a moment looking around and looks at her again not wanting to say a lot of what just happened to her "Do you know any place like that? I don't have much change" she says not mentionning she had ANY change being robbed not long ago. Katrina closes her eyes for a moment to think and wondered which place would be good for her to stay but knowing, Hathian, it's nearly impossible to find a place for really cheap to stay at "Sadly I don't really know a place you can stay for really cheap since this part of the town is not that cheap. But.....You can try to ask the police for places you can stay for a while, till you find a job for the meantime." She said slowly but fast enough for the woman to understand her as she can tell she didn't know the place so well.
Ahlee sighs and nods, it seems the police was the only place she could maybe get some help and looks at the woman again maybe she was mistaken or the woman seemed not also know so well the city from the answer she just gave and just nods, smiling some "Ok, thank you for your help, I will indeed go inside the police station and hopefully they will be able to help...." looks at the building and back to the woman "After all they are the police right?" and smiles getting ready to walk when she stops and looks at her "By the way, I am Ahlee, Ahlee Dempsy" she says softly and waits a bit in case she would give her name too, hopefully she will but who knows.
_ "The name is Katrina Bourne. And a heads up they are police but......Not your usual type." She said back with a smirk back at the woman. "Also this town is known for robbery and worse cases. along with the gangs." She answered back hoping the woman doesn't meet some of the corrupted cops but the good types. Ahlee swallows dry and automatically her body froze where she was, no, not again, more corrupt cops, where the hell went the good ones and what was happening in this world or was she so into her career in being model and such she forgot to look around and see the reality of the country, it's like all her bad stuff happened lately passed through her eyes in few seconds "My....my type...you say?" wondering what the woman meant by that, of course she knew what she meant "Nice...nice meeting you...Katrina ..Bourne" she says in slow words, trying to breathe deeply not knowing if still to go to the police station, she looks at the building and then back to the woman and clears her voice "huhh..." and clears once more her throat "could it be too much if i asked for another favor please??? I promise I will pay them all, just that...many things have happened in the last days I'm ..." and stops talking shaking her head "nevermind me, thank you again Katrine Bourne" she says again her name more like to not forget it.
Katrina raised an eyebrow from the way Ahlee was speaking, she knew the woman got scared now. "Whats the favor you need? Cause you might regret not asking in the near future." Katrina said as she can clearly tell the woman was used to either up town living and not knowing some bad parts of places. For herself she was used to it. "Its either you ask the police for help or trying to find an off duty cop around the streets." She answered clearly she can tell Ahlee was scared now but she'll help her out since she seems like a nice person.
Meanwhile inside the police station..
Jontae Lamar DeCuir Jr. would start to sing out at the top of his lungs, "I did a 187 on a unda'cova cop, yea an' ya don't stop, I did a 187 on a unda'cova cop!"
Back to the street...
Ahlee looks at Katrina when she hears a man singing trying not to look to not call attention on her , after being robbed she could only take the few rags left from her dress and create something that could be used and really feeling her heart beating fast she looks at Katrina, she was normaly so stubborn and thinking she could all but right now, hell no, she was trembling like a leaf "Can I stay tonight with you, please I beg you??" she asks or better she begs avoiding to look around and speaking lower tone so only both could hear it. Katrina sighs knowing where she lived had only one room with a bathroom and a small kitchen. "Well.....I could let you but I only have one room so you may need to sleep on the couch." she said feelling sorry that she didn't have an extra room now. But another problem was that her neighbors would be wondering what she was doing so all she had left was just to take the risk. "Also if you got robbed, I'm just saying its best if you tell the police or you're going to regret it" she added, now wondering how is she going to make room in her apartment.
Inside the police station...
Jontae would look up seeing the name woman and would say, “Ew, take yo’ ugly skinny ass inta da showa an’ get checked out, no one want ta see all dat shit.” He would then look at the doctor as she came near, “By da fuckin’ time ya cops get som’ fuckin’ sense an’ we need som’ shoes. I know Hathian got enough money ta get shoes fo’ dere prisoners. Ya got shit an’ piss an’ blood, probably pussy blood too, on da flo’ an’ shit. I ain’t tryin’ ta get AIDS up in dis bitch.”
Back to the street..
Ahlee breathes with relief, at least she wouldn't need to go to the police, not yet when she heard about her advise and wonders if it was so obvious she had been robbed and looks at herself, well not hard to find out and sighs "No it wasn't here so nothing much they can do" was all she said about the matter and then looks at her again with the brightest of her smiles "Thank you so muchhh Katrina, I will pay you each help you giving to me, I promise you that, even today I will go look for work, i'm sure i will find something even if it is to ...." and stops talking, who would say she would one day say those words "even if it is to be a stripper" she finally says and sighs closing her eyes for a moment, praying for this nightmare to end soon. Katrina chuckles softly with a smile forming on her face as this girl gave her hope that they are good people in this God awful world. "Trust me they will be able to do a lot for you since you got robbed even if it was not in the area.....Do you want to head over my place first or place the police report real quick." She said knowing she is going to have to clean up a bit around the house to make it more friendly.
Ahlee looks at her and then to the bulding in front of them and back to Katrina "it's ok, I can come later, really.." she just says feeling really tired but what she wanted to avoid was to expose herself more than she should for the moment.
Katrina looks up as the number on the door said "5" That number was her room number. opening her door wide she lets out a soft grunt. "This is my home. Sorry for the mess." She said as a red almost new but used couch was out and a small kitchen with a few appliances were around. Ahlee had followed Katrina, not really having any bag with her after she got robbed, she looks around the place and at this point it was and seemed a luxuous place for someone who had not a roof to spend the night "Oh dear, you really think I am worried about that, I am so thankful you took me here or I don't even want to imaginate where I would be" and sighs but a sigh mixed wih hope that maybe.....maybe her life could have a better turn than the one she thought would be after being robbed like ending up in a road and doing all type of things to survive, she closes her eyes, and prays for few second..
_ "Fine by you." She answered back and notice the girl was closing her eyes a lot when it came to certain things she said. Shrugging it off like it was nothing she went to her room to get a few blankets and pillow for the girl. "Wait right here." she said opening her bedroom." Ahlee opens her eyes and nods, looks around and sees the couch, walks till it and has a seat, waiting for her return thinking in her life.....what to do now...
Katrina Bourne grabs a few blankets she doesn't use on the bed and a pillow that is fairly new. "Hope she knows that living in Hathian is going to be hard for newcomers." she mumbles opening her door as she came out to give it to Ahlee. She notices Katrina coming back and stands receiving the blankets and pillows and looks at her "I don't know what I would do without you Katrina, God bless you and thank you so much there is no words enough to say thank you to you" she smiling some but eyes getting tears.. turns around, preparing her place to lay and rest, not even thinking about food... All she wanted was to sleep and find a solution for her new life in Crack Den.
