Prologue
She ran down the dark alley, smiling evily as sirens and screaming could be heard from the street behind her. Turning around the block she stopped to catch her breath. Looking back she could see the flames and smoke rising into the moonlit night.
"So... how did it go?" To any person walking by she would have seemed extremly calm. But he knew by the slight widening of her eyes that he had shocked her. Just as soon as they had though, her eyes were back to normal. She turned slowly to look at him. "Just great. They never knew what was coming."
A smirk was the only thing she saw before he disappeared into the shadows. "Good."

See
the devil on the doorstep now (my oh my)
Telling everybody oh just
how to live their lives
Sliding down the information
highway
Buying in just like a bunch of fools
Time is ticking
and we can't go back (my oh my)
Vicky stared out her apartment window watching the sun sink down behind the buildings, the sky turning a deep purple orange, and the sun became blood red. She had tears streaming down her cheeks. This was how Coreen found her as she entered the Private Investigator's apartment/office.
"Vicky?" When she got no response she quickly ran over to her. "VICKY!" She got the same answer as the blonde haired woman just stared blankly at the darkening sky. Coreen quickly ran over to the phone, and dialed Henry's number. 'Please...please be up!' after the third ring a husky voice answered.
"Hello?" She sighed with relief, "Oh thank god! Henry, you better get over here quick!" The silence over the phone was short, and when he answered, Henry's voice was thick and dangerous. "Why? What happened?" "It's Vicky! She won't -" Coreen stopped when she heard a click over the phone. 'Well... ok then.'
She turned around and nearly screamed when nocking started at the door. Opening it she let Henry in with a growl. "You know, just once, I really wish you wouldn't do that!" Henry ignored her and ran over to where Vicky was still standing. "Vicky!"
The blonde just kept staring out the window, even though now there was nothing but the reflections of what was in the room. Henry gripped her arms and spun her around to where she faced him. His breathe stopped short as he looked at the intense pain in her eyes. "Vicky?"
A soft sob was then heard as Vicky closed her eyes and let more tears escape. "I..." Henry hugged her closely as she began to cry harder. "Shhh... shhh. It's ok... tell me." Vicky finally calmed down enough to pull away as far as Henry would allow and wiped her eyes.
"My... my sister and her husband. They were killed last night and their house was set on fire." Coreen and Henry gasped as Vicky closed her eyes again to stop the tears. "The- they apparantly were found in their living room by firemen." Henry pulled her into another hug as she began to cry again. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry Vicky."
"It's ok... I just hope that Aine (A/N Irish for radiance) will be ok." Henry looked down at her. "Who?" "My niece. She was at the movies when it happened apparantly. She's coming to stay with me until I can find her a place to stay permanantly."
Coreen looked out the door curiously, then back at Vicky. "Ok, two questions. One, how old is she?" Vicky looked at her with sad eyes. "17 years old." Coreen nodded. "Ok, two, when is she supposed to arrive?" The private detective stepped away from Henry, who watched her warily. "Tomorrow evening. Why?" Coreen opened the door.
"Because
she's here with MIke." At this, Mike and a young lady stepped in
the door. Henry and Vicky both looked at the young lady who stood a
little bit behind Mike. "Aine?" Vicky whispered as she
stepped forward. The woman smiled sadly. "What's up Aunt V?"
