AN: Wow! A Most Wanted fanfiction with Hollywood U! I'm basing this off of my 2008 Clue board game. I just played a game of it and took notes along the way. So, I already know who the killer is. Suspects will be introduce in the next chapter. I encourage you to guess the suspects and/or killer! I hope I'm not too obvious. By the way, I named the MC because its necessary in a crime. I will use her in other stories if needed. Please enjoy!


Rising Star Gone Missing!

Why Foul Play is Involved

Another trashy tabloid. Deputy Marshal Samantha Massey still didn't understand Los Angeles. Or California in general. Seriously, there are nutcases everywhere. And that's not counting paparazzi and reporters.

Why is everyone making a big deal out of this. The girl probably ran away or went on a trip. Why does everyone think she's dead or kidnapped? She may have a lot of enemies, but this is ridiculous!

Unfortanately, she and Detective Dave Reyes have to work together on this case.

What a horrible decision I made. Staying in California.

It all started yesterday, after Massey and Reyes went after a bank robber and he got away. By the way, it's all Reyes fault.


Flashback

Massey and Reyes walk back to the car. The culprit was out of the area. Massey sighed, furious. After she entered in the vehicle, she slamed the door really, really hard.

"Hey! Easy on the door! " Reyes shouted.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know the door had feelings." Massey said sarcastically.

Reyes started the engine and began driving. "Someone is little grouchy today."

Massey muttered, "Because someone let that guy get away."

"So, it's my fault that the guy suddenly bolted out of the door and was able to get away?!" Reyes said, raising his voice.

Massey exclaimed, "Yeah! It's your fault!"

For the rest of the car ride, they continue on with this argument.

When they came in the Major Crimes Unit, the seemed oblivious that Captain Dana Beckham called for a meeting and everyone was there.

"It is crucial that we find Monique Crow. I'm sure you all have seen the tabloids. It's a media circus. The university wants her found, and as usual, the mayor wants this case closed. The people on this case would be -"

"You think you're so silick and sauve. You can't charm a man out of his gun!" Massey yelled, interrupting.

"And scaring a man to shoot his gun with people around seems a much better idea." Reyes replied, heavy with sarcasm.

Massey scoffed. "You- "

Before she could speak any expletives, Captain Beckham cut in. "Deputy Marshal Massey and Dectective Reyes. Thank you for volunteering."

Both looked at the captain, who was trying to hide a smile.

That's how they got the case.

End of Flashback

Massey sighs in annoyance. She had to work on this dramatic case because of her incompetent partner.


Reyes looks at the case filed. Monique Crow was last seen at a party in a high-class mansion, where there was a ton of people. Anyone who had the chance to kill or kidnapped her, did it really well to not be noticed. Good thing he limited to six suspects, but it still wasn't enough.

He needs help from the stooges.


"Hey guys, what do you got for me?" Reyes asks, clasping his hands.

Marisol replies, "You have to be more specific on what you're looking for. I'm a profiler, not a mind reader."

"If you mean that rising star case, then we do have something." Reza -the professinal computer geek (short for data analyst and digital security consulant) - says, looking at his computers.

"Ok then, what do you got?" Reyes question, patience running thin due to a certain partner that shall not be named.

Reza turns to Reyes and starts, "Well I guess everyone knows who Monique Crow is."

"A beautiful rising star who doesn't play dirty." Nikhil, the forensic specialist and resident hipster, cuts in.

Reza glares, but continues, "Made a lot of enemies along the way and some really tough ones, too."

Nikhil again interrupts, "Bianca Stone, Anders Stone, Brian Ratzik, and Carlotta Valentine. Just to name a few."

Marisol joins in, "She stood for what's right and always helped her friends and enemies when they needed it. A real life Mary Sue."

"There's got to be some dirt on her." says a voice. When Reyes turns around, it's Massey.

"None that I could find, unfortunately." Reza shrugs.

"Nobody can rise to Hollywood that quickly, unless you're all crazy as I think you're are." Massey then turns to Nikhil. "Has anyone on the forensics team been able to search the mansion yet?"

"Nope. The owner is not letting anyone in. So we have no idea what happened in there. Looks like he has friends in high places to be able to stop us. I hope we can get a warrant." Nikhil says, dissapointed.

Annoyed with Massey for suddenly taking charge, Reyes speaks. "Do we know who the owner is?"

Reza searches in his computer. "Another no. It also seems that the mansion was rented for the party Monique Crow was at. Man, this case is getting me dizzy! But this is good for a script!" Reza takes out a pencil and paper. "If you're wondering who rented it, it was Aria Sheridan. The party was for some charity."

"She's not a person to attack someone, especially her friends. That takes her off the list." Marisol says, obviously bored.

Massey pinches the bridge of her nose and sighs. "We need to get in that mansion. The longer the owner has that building, the more time the suspect has to cover their tracks."

Reyes nods. "I agree. Good thing I know a judge that owes me a favor. I'll get a warrant in no time." He reaches for his cell phone and dials in the number.

The judge picks up after a couple of seconds. "Hello Mr. Frei, it's Detective Reyes. Sorry to bother you, there's something important I need to ask you."


Massey is watching her partner convince the judge when someone taps her shoulder. When Massey turns, she find Officer McKenzie. She looked like a mess and she was talking too fast when she asked Massey a favor.

"Pardon me Massey, but I was on my way over here when I saw this envelope on the floor. It's for Detective Reyes and I was just wondering if you can give it to him, since he's busy and I'm in a bit of a hurry."

"Ok, I'll give it to him." Massey takes the envelope, confused on what just happened.

"Thank you so much!' McKenzie runs off.

Reyes finishes his phone call and walks to Massey. He points to the envelope. "What do you got there?"

Massey shrugs. "I don't know. A letter from one of your Hollywood friends, I guess." She hands him the envelope.

Reyes, not really loking at it, opens the envelope. It reveals a glossy invitation. It reads

We're simply dying for you to join our party

Who? The usual suspects

Where? A luxury mansion

When? BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE

The address was the same mansion where Monique Crow was last seen.

Massey, who was looking over Reyes' shoulder, is in disbelief. "This case just got weird. Really weird."


Another AN: That last part got a little creepy to me. But I love it at the same time. (Don't mind me, I'm crazy and I know I'm not the only one.) I don't know when in Hollywood this takes place, I'm figuring it out.

One Favor: Thanks for reading! Please give me a review on what you thought of this. I really appreciate it!

Until then, read, write, and smile!
