With Liam away on vacation, Emma was the lead agent in charge. Liam was due back in the morning, well, not back to work but back home. When Brie had started to get direct threats, Emma thought it best to put her in protective custody. Mick insisted she be assigned with the other agents to keep an eye on the woman, and Emma had agreed to it. But now that Brie was under lock and key, the man stalking her and killing prostitutes in her name was getting angrier. He'd slipped up, finally. He'd left a print at the last scene, and he was in the system. They'd gone to his house to apprehend him, but he wasn't there. Instead, there were clues as to who he'd be after next, and a location. An abandoned warehouse. Emma and Wyatt were enroute to his apartment when Micah had called to tell them that Kyle Pratt wasn't there, and that he might be at the warehouse location. She and Wyatt were closer, so they went ahead, thinking a woman's life was in danger.

When they got there, Emma took the lead, her gun in hand. She could hear noises, though she wasn't sure what they were. The others would be there soon with backup, but for now she was focused on hopfully saving the woman she assumed Pratt had.

Immediately Liam started to think about the practical things: notification of family, the reports that would need to be filed, possible investigations, the service--it caused a long silence on the phone as his brain kicked in to administrative overdrive.

But it was just to protect him from the shock and the jab of pain that had stabbed right into his chest. Maybe if he could just surround himself with the ritual of leadership, and paperwork, and protocol, he could survive the sudden and overwhelming feeling that this was his fault and that Emma was dead.

And still the silence rolled on before he finally let out a sound. It wasn't a sob, or a moan, or anything but a sharp exhale of breath. Then a word. "Oh." And another long pause. "How?"

	Micah lifted Wyatt's hand up to his lips to press a soft kiss against the back of it before he dipped his head down to do the same to the younger man's mouth. "I'm right here, we're all here," he assured, "Liam and Chancellor are here, too. Outside with Mick, Beckett, and Jude's here too," he said. "How are you feeling?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sometimes - just, sometimes things happen," Micah said softly with a frown. He dipped his head down and brushed a kiss against Wyatt's forehead, closing his eyes, squeezing them shut. "I wish that there was something I could do or say to make it better, but I know there's nothing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Morphine, I assume," Micah said as he pulled back, and he couldn't help but smile a little at Wyatt's words. He wanted to break down and cry, but he swallowed back the urge and dipped his head down to press a soft kiss against Wyatt's lips. "I'm sure you'll make her well aware," he mumbled quietly.

	"After I see the others, will you come back and stay with me?" He didn't know if that was asking too much and the expression on his face was sheepish, worried. He glanced at the chair where Micah would be sleeping and he made a little face because he knew it would probably be pretty uncomfortable. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
