Chapter 1

A month had passed since Ryan and Eric had first gotten together. Although Eric was a bit shocked, he quickly warmed up to the idea of the supernatural being real. That didn't mean it didn't creep out from time to time. Eric knew Ryan was a part vampire, fairy, and kitsune, but he had yet to see his lover's ears and tail.

The situation at work had not changed at all, with the exception of a less moody atmosphere and the occasional kiss. The only people who knew about them at work were their close friends, which was interesting because the rumor mill usually streamed with gossip about stories about them. Eric had been force to take three weeks off of work. The department thought that since it was a cult that had taken the Cuban hostage he would need to stay out longer. That mean that all Ryan ever saw when he got back to his apartment was the other's face.

Today the couple was working on a case together. "Hey Eric did you find anything?" The victims in the case was a elderly woman who had been beaten to death in her own house. It was a sad sight.

Eric who was kneeling over a hammer, a possible murder weapon, testing it for blood. As he pressed the Q-tip against the metal, he replied. "A hammer. Possible murder weapon."

Ryan snapped a few shots, and Eric dropped a few drops of his solution. The Q-tip turned a pinkish red. Blood was on the item. "There's blood. Maybe the killer hit her, then freaked and ran." Ryan shot out a theory, as he continued to snap shots of the murder weapon.

Eric shook his head. The crime scene and the theory didn't make any sense. "No I don't think so. Did you find anything?" He looked up at his grinning lover.

"What didn't I get is the question?" After receiving his inheritance Ryan had become an even better CSI. Things that a normal person couldn't see with the naked eye were easily found by the hybrid. Smells that could never be detected by anything, but cadaver dogs were easily found with Ryan along as well. It helped give the lab a better reputation then it already had. Earning the man the praise he deserved.

"Give me the short list of it then."

"I found a few blonde hairs, and a piece of blue fabric."

Eric nodded, both were something the victim did not have. Sighing, he lifted himself off the floor, lightly brushing off his clothing. "Well I don't see anything else we can do. Want to head back to the lab?"

"Yeah." Leaving the house the two made their way back to the lab.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at the lab it didn't take very long for the duo to find their suspect and killer. A teenage boy by the name of Collin Williams had been hanging around the area for some time. With a cocky attitude and a rap sheet the size of a career criminals it took time for the boy to confess, but eventually Ryan did it.

"Tell me Collin why were you hanging around Mrs. Winston's house?" Ryan leaned forward, his arms resting on the manila folder stuffed with pictures.

"I wasn't doing anything. I wasn't even over there." The boy leaned back, puffing a strand of his blonde hair out of his face. His face didn't give anything away.

Ryan glanced outside, Eric was walking towards the DNA lab. Most likely to get the results of the hair sample to Collin's. Hopefully it would be a match. Looking back at his suspect, he noticed a slight hitch in the other's breath. "I have witness' that say you were right outside of her house, and a police report to prove it." Ryan pulled out a copy of the offending report. It was one of the only things tying the boy to the murder, besides gut instinct.

"Your lying."

Placing the report on the table, the hybrid slid it over the table. Collin looked at the item, scoffing at it. "So do you want to tell me what happened?"

"I was there, but I didn't do it." Ryan resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Their suspects always said that. "After the cop told me to scram I did. The old woman was still alive and kicking when I left."

Standing up, Ryan walked out of the glass room. Leaning against the wall, he watched as Eric walked forward, smiling triumphantly. "It's a match."

"Good." Getting up from his spot on the wall, Ryan left his partner walk in first.

Sitting down in one of the chairs, Eric slapped the results in front of Collin's face along with a picture of the hair. "Do you want to tell me what this is Collin?" He voice held unleashed anger in it. Ryan silently took his place next to Eric, eyes fixed on Collin.

"A piece of hair, and some other crap."

"Wrong." Eric pulled the paper back. "This is evidence of you at the crime scene. Do you want to tell us what really happened now?" Leaning back, Eric crossed his hands on the table in front of him, waiting for the kid to spill his guts.

"It was an accident." The kid murmured, not lifting his eyes from the picture of his hair. "I was supposed to go in and take something of her's as a dare. She wasn't supposed to be home." Unshed tears glazed his baby blue hues. "When she woke up, screaming at me. I grabbed the nearest thing to defend myself."

"Defend yourself against a seventy year old woman." Ryan lashed out.

"She came out with a baseball bat. I grabbed the hammer and slammed it against her head. She fell down instantly, and I ran." The last part came out as a silent whisper.

"So you left her to die." Ryan added.

"Officer take him away." Eric commanded. The two uniformed officers, grabbed the teenager, taking him away.

"How could someone do that?"

"I have no idea Ryan. No idea."

"This is just the tip of the iceberg chosen one. The days are still young." Simon Key muttered from his above crystal ball. Over the last month, he had been working to replace his fallen servant Zeke. Walking back over to his throne, he sat, commanding his guards. "Get me some food."

One of the guards bowed his head, leaving the room. He returned a few minutes later, with a dirty woman thrashing in the his hands. "Here my lord." The guard handed the girl over.

"Thank you. Let's see how you fair, watching innocents die once again." Grabbing the woman's hair, he forcefully pulled her head back. Opening his mouth he bit down, causing the woman to fall limp, gasping out. Finishing what he wanted, Simon let the woman bleed out to death, before lowering her body to the ground. "Guards place her on a well crowded place. How about the Miami-Dade crime lab?"

"Yes my lord." The guards bowed, grabbing the body.

"How will you handle this chosen one?" Licking his lips Simon laughed cruelly.
