Greetings.

First of all, I would like to greet you a happy new year 2011.

It's been a while since I submitted a story.

And I've been too lazy to update my last story, 'The Ghost of You'.

And recently I've been making Flash, so I just ignored the stories.

Anyway, this one is a story I'm sure to finish.

This is not an OC story; it is made from the original characters.

A silhouette ran into the rain, blood dripping from head to toe. She ran, limp against the hallow night, through the streets, ever black. Her faint bloody hand felted against the buildings' glass door, desperately needing attention. Toothy saw the girl, eyes filled with shock. He took her in, and called the hospital.

Splendid walked into a building with nothing but pitch black darkness. He stopped there to let the rain pass. He looked at the time, which says 4:56 AM. The wind blew harder, and he stepped back, only to find himself step on a somewhat thick substance. He looked at what he stepped on. He couldn't see it clearly, but he could tell what it is.

Blood?

He stepped back in disgust, brushing the blood against the concrete. He cocked his head to where it came from. He could only see something shaped or formed out like an arm, but lightning flashed and revealed the full figure of the body. His eyes got smaller in shock, and ran towards the Detective Agency. He worked there. He knows what his crew would do. Yes, he didn't see the whole figure, but he is certain that it is a girl. A few moments passed, the rain stopped, and he finally reached the building. Gathered around the table are Flippy, Sniffles and Handy, his 'crew'.

"Guys, there's a dead body in a building not too far from here!"

They all stared at him in disbelief.

"Who would ever commit a murder at this time of day?" Handy retorted.

Splendid removed his shoe and raised it to his crew.

"Then what do you call this?"

They murmured something to each other.

"Maybe you stepped on some red paint." Flippy suggested.

Splendids' sweat dropped.

"Who would leave wet red paint at 5 AM?"

"The Mole." Sniffles answered back.

The Flying Squirrel clenched his fists.

"LOOK, just come with me, OKAY?"

Sniffles nodded and began explaining and saying stuff that we don't understand, Flippy got his notepad and didn't say a word, and Handy rolled his eyes and said,

"You better not be wasting our time, fly-guy."

Splendid then led the crew to the building. It was almost sunrise, so you can almost see anything. The building looked like an unfinished construction site, with unfinished windows and an unfinished roof. They all entered the building, and saw the body. Splendid made a face saying 'I told you so' while Handy ignored him. Flippy started hyper-ventilating, so Sniffles handed him a paper bag. The crew examined the body carefully, taking note of anything that is to prove of evidence. They saw the footprint made out of blood, and all Splendid could do was chuckle. Flippy accidentally dropped his paper bag, and managed to see a bowtie. He picked it up, and his face went pale.

"What's wrong Flippy?" Handy remarked.

"T-this belongs to Giggles…"

Everybody went silent.

A cell phone started to ring. They looked at each other. They saw a bag next to the dead body, and found the cell phone. Sniffles answered it.

"Hello?"

Hello? Giggles? Is that you?

"No, this is Sniffles."

Sniffles? Oh thank goodness. You see, my niece is lost and I was wondering if you could find her for me.

"I'm sorry, but… She's dead."

Erm, did I just heard what I thought you said?

"Yes."

Sniffles heard some sobs and whimpers on the other end of the phone.

"Ma'am?"

Oh, yes. Just… file us a case about her death. We want to find who murdered her…

"Yes, of course Ma'am."

The call ended.

Sniffles looked at them.

"We have a case."


Done.

Please Read and Review, and NO FLAMES.
