"Adeline, Ayden, hurry up!" Suzaku Kururugi spoke through the intercom of their Los Angeles mansion.

"We're coming." His daughter responded.

"Will you be back for dinner sir?" The maid asked.

"Not this evening Sayoko. But make sure you ask Ayden if he's bringing Nathan home with him."

Adeline bounced into the foyer with her brother in tow, "How do I look dad?"

Suzaku smiled, "Lovely as always." Adeline and Ayden were twins and his only children. The both had their mother's dirty blonde hair (since this story takes place in the real world Euphy had blonde hair) and his emerald green eyes.

"I don't know Ada," Ayden teased his sister, "Your makeup is all smudged."

"What?"

"It's fine." Flicked his son lightly on the head. "Stop teasing."

"Mr. Ayden will you be bringing your friend Nathan home this evening?" Sayoko questioned the boy.

"Most likely, unless he has other plans." Ayden replied.

"Let's go guys, you're already late." He ushered the two seventeen year olds out the door.

As soon as his kids were off on their way, Suzaku began his drive to work. When he first moved to America, he'd worked in construction but when a movie director had stopped and insisted that he was just what they were looking for to play in an upcoming film, Suzaku figured the extra money couldn't hurt.

That role brought him everything, fame, money, his house, his wife, which then brought his children and he was even reunited with an old friend. 'Lelouch where are you now?' He thought as he pulled into the busy filming lot.

Detective Lelouch Lamperouge was not has a very good day. First his piece of shit car had broken down on his way to work, then Rivalz had accidentally spilt coffee on him setting Lelouch's OCD into overdrive and then he found out that his latest case was in his least favourite part of Los Angeles, the filming studio area.

"Come on it won't be so bad." Rivalz told him from the driver's seat on the way there. "We'll probably get to see some hot actresses."

"Yeah because that's what the gay guy sitting next to you wants to see." Lelouch retorted.

"Sorry, actors in your case."

"Besides actor, actresses, they're all the same just stuck up snobs too immersed in their fabulous lives to pay attention to anyone but themselves." He stated.

"Harsh words." Rivalz parked his car outside the main gates. "Didn't you have a friend that became an actor."

Lelouch flashed his bag to the guard, "Yeah and I haven't heard from him since. I rest my case."

"What happened here Shirley?" Rivalz spoke to the red haired coroner standing over the body of a dead man.

"This is one of Black Knight Films men, they're about to shoot a movie here." Shirley explained, "Direct gunshot to the head at approximately 6am, immediate death but no one heard or saw a thing."

"Are you kidding me?" Lelouch bent down to inspect the man, "This place is crawling with noisy people. Who is he?"

"Naoto Kouzuki co-founder of the company." She explained.

"Alright let's split up Rivalz," Lelouch directed, "You can question any cast members that could have been here yesterday and I'll talk to the guards. Shirley can you call Rolo and have him talk to the Black Knights Headquarters?"

"Sure thing."

` "Let's get this over with." Lelouch spent the next three hours speaking to security guards and the director of the films (an annoying loud man named Tamaki) but they all said the same thing, no one suspicious had entered the lot the before or during the time the man was killed. On top of that all of them had alibi's for the morning.

He massaged his temples completely sick of this place and its atmosphere. Everyone was going about their business as if no one had even been hurt let alone killed and it pissed him off.

"Please tell me you got something." Lelouch looked at Rivalz hopefully.

He got an apologetic shrug in return, "Sorry man, everybody alibi's out and no one saw a thing."

"That seems to be all I'm hearing today." Lelouch groaned. "Let's go back and see what Rolo and Nina dug up."

They'd almost made it to the car when Lelouch literally bumped into the one person he'd hoped not to.

The brown haired man was coming swiftly around the corner when he ran straight into him, knocking him to the ground.

"Oh my god I'm so sorry." He held out a hand that Lelouch reluctantly took and helped him to his feet. "Are you…" The man paused, looking startled, "Lelouch is that you?"

Lelouch gave an the person a slight smile. "Hey Suzaku."

Please review! This is my first story so try not to be too harsh.
