"Detective Easton has transfered down here from New York."
Alex had a sinking feeling started in the pit of his stomach.
"She's going to be your new partner."
"I don't ...."
"I can do..."
Both detectives spoke at the same time.
The Chief raised his hand to stop them from any further complaining. "I certainly hope you use the same amount of energy that you do complaining, in the line of work. Now hit the pavement. I'm fairly certain there's a crime out there waiting for your two brilliant egos."

"Wonderful." Alex spun on his heals and walked out the door. He didn't wait to see if she was following. He didn't need or want to be dragged down by a partner, and a woman at that. The Chief better have a good reason. He knew what happened with Alex's last partner. The detective was a dirty cop. A woman and a dirty cop. One that he fell in love with. One that put a bullet in him and left him for dead. What a cliche it all was. Cop falls for partner whose bad and tries to kill him. He would of never believed it would happen outside of a theater.
