Chapter 1: Confusion
It had been forever...too long since someone had ever understood him. Even his own family never quite got him. His 'gift' of perception had gained him small-lasting popularity...something he used to yearn for. Now, the only thing he ever wanted was for people to leave him alone. Sitting there in his prison cell, Will saw himself fishing , in a lake, with Abigail. She was like a daughter to him. "I named mine Abigail"...he remembered how crushed he had felt when Abigail confessed to him about luring those girls to her father. But was that even true, or was it just his imagination. As of this moment, Will was floating in between reality and fantasy.
"BUZZ", and the guard let the doctor in. All had gone according to plan. Now, all he had to do was sit and watch his masterpiece, the mind of Will Graham. Hannibal walked down the row of isolated cells. He then stopped in front of Will's. "Hello Will.", he said, his face lack of expression. "Dr. Lecter. Don't confuse me, stop confusing me. My..my mind, I don't know what's real...did I really kill Abigail? I...no...I ...Abigail isn't really dead is she?", stuttered Will. "Will, I'm sorry, Abigail Hobbs is dead, and you murdered her. But, you can make things right if you plead guilty...I need you to plead guilty, Will, do you understand?", replied Hannibal. Now that all the evidence pointed to Will, all he needed to do was convince Will of his guilt.
"What? Am I guilty?NO! I can't be...I thought Dr. Lecter wanted to support me.", thought Will. "No, I'm sorry Dr. Lecter, I know I sound insane, but I think I'm innocent...someone is setting me up...maybe its you, I don't know" suggested Will. His forthrightness didn't surprise Dr. Lecter, after all, this was Will we were talking about.

"Hannibal, we need you here. There's been another murder. Her name is Lisa Cavanaugh, 21 year old female. Looks like its the Chesapeake Ripper...this might mean that Will isn't guilty.", said Jack Crawford over the phone. "I'll be right over, but Jack, I wouldn't want to jump to any conclusions just yet.", said Hannibal. Hannibal put the phone down and then grabbed Lisa's dead heart and chopped it up and froze it. "Wouldn't want the meat to spoil", said Hannibal out loud, to no one in particular.
