Disclaimer: I thought that I would make up a Law and Order: Criminal Intent fan fic, I watch the episodes and enjoy each and every one of them, unfortunately I do not owe the characters they belong to NBC (I think that's right) forgive me if I have mistaken. Forgive me also if I get the places in New York mixed up unfortunately I am not from the US I am from Australia but I do get streets etc from all of the law and order series.. It helps me:p

NOTE: Goren may be a little out of character but he's still in his good handsome self.

Its one of those days where the Police Department (NYPD) just gets out of control, police in the building were rushing around here and there and eventually throwing papers, documents, briefcases and books across the room to each other. Detective Eames and Detective Goren both sat opposite each other working impatiently as they couldn't stand the noise. Goren rubbed his forehead, staring down at the papers underneath his nose, he hated doing paper work, and he wished that an interesting case would come up so that he and Eames could go out finding clues and getting left over evidence and finding out how it all ended up. Goren likes to do mostly mystery cases, he calls them 'fun 'n' games' in which Eames just thinks he can be crazy and yet ignorant.

Detective Goren dug his face into his hands rubbing them up and down, he moaned for a few seconds and continued to stare down at his work, Detective Eames leaned over and wondered what he was complaining about and there it was. On his desk she found a piece of paper, which was more like a riddle or a puzzle? She made a sceptical look at Goren and snatched the paper away from his tiring and annoyed face.

"Eames" he said whimpering as if someone had taken his candy away from him.

Detective Eames looked at the 'so called mystery paper' she rested her chin on the palm of her hand in the elbow gently touched the desk in a comfortable position, in the other hand had the paper "what is this rubbish?" she asked looking up at her partner.

Goren made a 'damn' expression on his face "I don't know" he replied but the voice belied him and Eames knew he wasn't speaking the truth, oh this man will get himself into trouble one day.. She thought.

"A puzzle?" she said curiously looking at it from different angels.

Goren snatched the puzzle back "not just a puzzle" he said laying it down on the flat grey desk "mystery"

Eames rolled her eyes at this "oh my god" she said in sarcasm "Detective Goren has got a mystery puzzle, shouldn't you be working on your other case, like how a 13 year old girl got abused by her father and was raped".

The handsome tall dark haired Detective frowned "how is she by the way?" he asked determined to know the answer.

"In hospital recovering, her father's in prison for 15 years, I was hoping to visit her today do you want to come?" she asked generously leaning back against her chair.

Goren went into his deep thoughts, looking up at the ceiling he stayed in that position "should I? I think she might find me uncomfortable".

"I thought that" Eames added "girls tend to get uncomfortable, after there tragic incident. you know what I mean".

"Of course I do, since your going to visit the girl I might as well-"

Eames interrupted "work on your piece of paper?"

Goren made a grin "yes."

Deakin's came forth and stood in the middle on the side of their desk and looked from Eames to Goren "any news?" he asked folding his arms over his chest. Goren shook his head sideways; Eames kicked him in the knee from underneath the table in which Goren ended up gnashing his teeth together in soreness.

"Deakin's.. I hope you don't mind me visiting the young girl today at the hospital, I was hoping to drop by some get well flowers." when Eames said 'get well flowers part' she said it in a long way to Goren who just shook his head in sarcasm as if he was a child. Deakin's smiled a bit but kept a straight face "very well then.. Eames you have my permission to go and see the girl, Goren-"

Detective Eames cut in "oh he's too busy working on his puzzle" she said this by showing Goren her inverted comer signals in the air, Goren scowled at her with an 'I hate you look'.

The Captain was surprised but yet confused "puzzle? Goren."

"Yeah ok. it's a puzzle so what" Goren spoke angrily wiping the heat sweat of his face "I got this in my mail box yesterday morning. remember hearing about this criminal who thinks that he is invincible. no one hasn't really got him yet? He's still lurking around in some different countries he has been to Lebanon, Australia, London, Spain, Bali, Hawaii, Fiji and of course murdering poor innocent people!" Goren finished his voice sounded a little upset with annoyance of why no one hasn't even caught him yet.. Maybe if this criminal came to New York Goren could give him a real police beating.

Deakin's thought for a brief moment and said "Detective, the reason why I'm here also is because I've found out where this smooth criminal or if he thinks he's so smooth is".

Goren's face lightened up in surprise as if a good case has popped out of no where "really? Where abouts"

"New York"
