Sorry this took so long for me to get so! Thanks for putting in requests, I'll try to be better about them<3

Yeah, yeah, the forecast had given a 78% chance of heavy downpour - an offshoot from a hurricane, actually, but thankfully slightly calmed - but work for the police didn't stop. Especially not since there were only about five officers - you, Jack, John, and the two others. Well, the two others hadn't had a shift that interacted you and John's, and Jack had already went home. You'd been good friends with John for a while now, and had recently graduated the academy and started working with him.

You had just gone to get flashlights when the entire station seemed to black out, and by the the time you returned it was pitch black in the office. Looking out the window offered no light, since it was both getting to be late and the rain was coming down in sheets so thick you couldn't see past the lawn in front of the station. John sat on his desk, his elbow resting on his knee and his chin in his hand. Surprisingly, he wasn't smoking at the moment, and seemed to be thinking until you came in with the flashlights. He took one and flicked it on, angling it up to illuminate the room. "Just in time, kid," He said, even if you were barely two or three years his junior. "I don't think we're making it out of the station tonight, not if this rain doesn't calm down. We shouldn't have taken the extra shift."
