Cold Case-"Luke Skywalker"
Prologue
May 2, 2001
Late at night, around 8:30, outside of a school, a short mocha skinned seventeen year old black girl, about 5' 3" with shoulder length dark brown hair, is standing outside of the building, posted up again the brick wall, smoking a cigarette, wearing a black hoodie and black jeans, staying calm, showing no sign of worry. A young fifteen year old white girl, about 5' 5" and shoulder length black hair, walks up to the black girl, wearing a white jacket and white slightly baggy jeans. The black girl removes her lit cigarette from her lips, and begins, rolling it between her lips between her fingers.
"You don't have to do this you know." The black girl implies not looking at the white girl, but straight ahead, with her face unrevealed from her hoodie.
The white girl looks down, trying to avoid contact. "I have to. I've been challenged. I can't back down" She looks up at the other girl. "And when we win, we'll have a surprise for everyone."
The black girl gives off a smirk as she tosses her cigarette aside and taking removing her hoodie from her head and feels a drop of rain coming from the sky. "Alright Skywalker, make the Dark Side proud."
The walk into the building side by side, before entering the building, the black girl puts her head with her hoodie. As they enter the gym of the school where about a thousand of faces scream and cheer, they're depart to opposite sides of the gym.
Around 11:45, the white girl lies behind the school face down in the rain, the black girl comes over to the girl hoping to wake the young girl, only to find the girl dead.
October 5, 2008
At the station, Detective Nick Vera goes walking towards his desk when an older woman in her late 40's with flowy blonde hair, knocks into the detective, causing him to spill his coffee onto himself, burning coffee.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry sir." The woman apologizes with a sympathetic manner.
Nick takes in a deep breath, trying not to show sign of pain, begins wiping the excess coffee away. "It's okay, nothing that a good dry clean can't fix. What can I help you with?"
"Are you with the Philadelphia Homicide Team?" The woman asks.
Nick clears his throat. "Yes I am actually."
The woman pulls out a notebook and hands it to Nick. "Good, cause I was hoping that can look into a case. From May 2, 2001, my daughter was murdered. This was a notebook she had in her room."
Nick reads the cover of the notebook, which causes him to raise an eyebrow. "Luke Skywalker?"
The woman shrugs. "I used to think that it was s storybook she used to write but I now believe that it was a diary and I was hoping maybe you could take the time to look at the book to see it has the answer to her death."
Nick nods his head. "Well ma'am, I have no guarantees, but I'll see what I can do." He walks over to his desk with the notebook and Detective Scotty Valens walks over out of curiosity.
"Old girlfriend?" Scotty jokingly asks.
Nick looks over to Scotty and hands him the notebook. "New re-opened case."
