i dunno nor do i own anyone in this story.

Her life was nothing but an open book. Something anyone could get into and always would get into; due to the fact that she is a very well known detective for her horrid mistakes on cases. Headlines would blare out to the public, "Detective has done it again!" or "Another case lost to Detective Cadberry!" She was always known to get in the way and never let the others do their work. She hoped to one day see the headlines shout out, " Detective Danielle Cadberry has done it yet again and solved the case!" At this rate that was never going to happen in the near future. Yes, her name was Danielle Cadberry, a 20 year old woman with a passion for helping those in need, or interpret lawbreakers, which ever you prefer. Being a recent college graduate you would thinks she'd know her stuff. Well, she does but no one will listen to her. Maybe if she could take on a case of her own, if they would just give her a chance…

"CADBERRY!" Lieutenant Welch screamed. He has never been a nice person since he and his wife divorced 3 months ago. A rather cold, dark old man in Danielle's opinion.

"Yes Sir!" Danielle said dreading for what was to come next.

"In my office! NOW!" Welch yelled slamming his office door, making Danielle jump with shock. Danielle quickly stood up avoiding her fellow officers to avoid embarrassment. She slowly stepped into Welch's office and sat down slowly. "You called sir." Danielle said waiting for the worst.

"You've done it again! We had that girl right in our grasp and you had to jump in! Your news couldn't wait for 1 more hour! Cadberry how do you expect to move up and get a raise!" Welch yelled jumping up from his desk and looking at her with anger filled eyes. " In the past 3 months you've gotten 8 officers hospitalized and 2 victims killed! 10 people Cadberry! 10!" Danielle dropped her head in shame speaking he was right. She had ruined everything.

"Sir I had found a break in the case! I knew where to find the girl!" Cadberry cried, " No one told me you had found the girl!" Welch looked at her with disgust.

" I can't have you on his force if you can't do something right!" Welch yelled.

"Sir please! Don't kick me off the force! Give me my own case to solve! Let me show you that I am worth it!" Danielle cried out, her eyes welling up with tears making her eyes glisten.

'if I give you your own case, I know for a fct that your going to lose another victim! I'm not letting that happen Danielle!" Welch screamed. Danielle dropped her head in shame once again, even her own boss can't trust her. "Sir ple-"

Welch cut her off " Get out of here! Your Fired!" He yelled. Welch never had any sympathy for his fellow officers.

Danielle reluctantly got up from the chair and walked out to face her fellow officers. But she couldn't even look at them without being laughed at. She was being fired. Her passion of helping people was crushed in front of her like a bug on a windshield. She stormed out of the building and into her car. She got into the car and put her keys into the ignition, before dropping her head to the steering wheel and crying. She took her hand and slammed it down hard onto the dashboard. Hard enough to shatter the bones had she not been as angry and frustrated as she was. With make-up running down her face she drove home to be met with a panic stricken boy at her apartment door.

"May I help you?" Danielle asked while wiping her face.

The boy seemed to be about 17, with huge blue eyes and brown hair that almost covered his eye with layers. He looked like a punk, band shirts and kind of tight jeans; Girl Jeans. He looked up at Danielle with huge puffy red eyes. He'd been crying.

"My names Jason Burnabaker. Your detective Cadberry aren't you?" The boy asked as he slowly arose from the floor.

"used to be…" Danielle said hering her voice crack, "I've just been fired. Why what's it to you?"

The boy looked up at her with pure terror. She could see his mouth moving like he wanted to say something but nothing came out except hims fainting to the floor…
