"Isaac" a voice called, "Wake up, Isaac!" I shot straight up, the adrenaline waking me up. Niko was standing next to the bed.

"Oh, Niko" rubbing the sleepiness from my eyes. He rarely come into my room.

"It is time to wake up, do you even know what time it is?"

I looked at the clock it said 8:30. Shit, I needed to meet Vul in an hour and I just woke up. "Sorry I will get ready now." I scrambled out of bed getting tangled in my sheets.

"Just put on clothes and deodorant, you eat in the car. I put some clothes the desk you should wear, be ready to leave in five." I saw the clothes on the desk, I put them on. I also put some of photos of the vandalism, if Vul has an idea of where to look, all the more to bring them.

My deodorant was in the bathroom, I should put it on in the car, I needed to leave anyway.

I lock the door behind me with the spare keys on the hook. Niko already started the car. I climbed in the passenger seat, with a small container on it. "Deodorant," Niko said. I open it and applied it to my pits then buckled up.

I opened the container with my breakfast in it and devour it. Between bites I asked "you know the way?"

"Yeah, I got the address yesterday from the client, so I know where to go."

"Niko, how are you planning to hack Xander's Laptop?"

"Hacking in not as difficult as some may think, in fact with today's technology, a child could be a hacker." That's a scary thought, my bank account being hack by a seven year old. "If all I had to worry is the password locking the computer, it shouldn't take too long."

"Because people use personal info as passwords, right?"

"That's right. It is easier to remember a single word then a long complex one. This leads to the passwords usually being something like a hobby or favorite franchise."

I thought back to when I looked though Xander's room, "nothing seemed like it would stand out when I check his room yesterday," though I could just be blind to currents fads.

"In that case, when you speak to Vul, ask him about Xander's hobbies or interests. Here stick out your hand," I did what I was told and Niko placed my medicine in it, "you really thought I wouldn't bring it?"

"I am a big boy now; I can take my medicine by myself." I placed the pill in my mouth and drank from the water bottle.

"Then remember to bring it with you by yourself." When we got to the entrance to the neighborhood, the gate was open. I had a bad feeling about this. "Okay, from here you have to give me directions to the house." As we passed through the neighborhood, the atmosphere seemed different from yesterday. The air felt tense and unnerving, like some bomb was about to blow, "Which way?"

"Take a right at the next turn." I really should ask Ms. Young when we see her. As we continued though the neighborhood, none of the houses looked like there was any activity in them, "this is so odd."

"What is?"

"How quite this neighborhood is. Continue straight," I continued to look at the other houses, "at this time most people usually head off to work, but we haven't seen another car driving since entering. If we go on the assumption that most businesses open around 9:00 to 10:00 AM and that the people who work there lives close, then we should have seen someone."

"Does that have anything to do with it?" Niko pointed to a crowd of people a ways up the road. That looks like...I realized immediately where that crowd was. I hoped out of the car a sprint towards the crowd as Niko was yelling behind me.

"Move," I shoved my way into the crowd of onlookers, "get out of the way!" I pushed though everyone to get to the front. Please let her be alright, please let her be alright. When I got to the front I called out to an officer, "you what happened?"

The officer was a Rabbit, "sir I am asking you to stand back from the crime scene."

Dame it, "who is in charge here?" the rabbit just repeated what he said; "I asked you a question, who is in charge of this site?"

"Sir, if you don't calm down, I will arrest you for disrupting police work." I had enough of this. If this rabbit is not going to help me, I will just go myself. I stepped under the police tape, "sir, you are disrupting police work. Leave now or I will use force." the rabbit was pointing a taser at me; I could hear other officers surrounding me. At least their tactics are improving.

If I force my way though, there is a chance this could get even worse. "Alright rabbit, I'll leave if you answer my question. What has happen to Ms. Young," the rabbit didn't answer. I turned to the officer behind me, "what has happened to Ms. Young?" the officer was just as silent, "fine then. You over there, use code 10-107 now."

The radio crackled, "we got a 107 here at BAE site, over." It was silent for a second, "descried."

The Rabbit went to answer, but I interrupted before he spoke, "It is Isaac, you ass!"

The Rabbit pointed the taser at me again. There was a short silence, "for the... I am coming down. Keep him there." I turned my eye to the front door waiting for his arrival. Not even a minute passed before he exit the building. When his eyes fell on me, I could tell he was quite upset to see me. "What are you doing here Isaac?"

"What has happen to Ms. Young?"

"What is your connection to Ms. Young?"

"She is a client of mine, I will say no more."

Oliver just glared at me, "as you should have known, this is a crime scene. I ask you to leave immediately. You are no longer a part of the police force Isaac. These officers aren't going to as lenient as the other officers; they will use force and charge you with disruption which will land you in jail and there are plenty of people there who would love to see you in there." I could smell his breath with how close he was to me, he forgot to brush.

"Do you really want to lose a person of value like me," I asked, "I was here yesterday and, if I am not wrong, the last person to speck with her. I also remember the layout of the house. So tell me, do you really want me to leave?"

Oliver just glared at me in silence, his tail moving side to side behind him, going over his options in his head. Oliver and I never got along; even when I was with the police, our attitudes towards one another was outright hostile. We always manage to put it aside if we are forced to work together but we always but heads during the case.

We hated each other for different reasons; I hated him for being a hard ass and inflexible. Oliver hated me since he believed I was getting special treatment from the higher ups, though he has a point. My work ethic during an investigation wore considered 'odd', but the higher ups turned a blind eye to them since it gave them results. Oliver believed I should not get this treatment and made his hostilities known till I left the force.

Oliver's tail stopped, he came to a decision. "Fine you may enter," I released a breath I didn't know I held. "However," Oliver shouted, "You will do as I say and nothing more. If you move out of line, even if it is for a second, I will see you removed personally."

"Alright, I can agree to that," I can outmaneuver him easily.
