My first fiction ever. Go easy on me alright. Also english is not my first language. Not even the second one.
Tuesday morning 7:45 AM, Boston. The great big city was begin to wake up and get to work. So was Jane Rizzoli, detective of Boston homicide unit. This morning went on as one of her typical mornings except one thing; Maura Isles, her best friend and colleague, was nowhere to be seen. Usually she would meet her first thing in the morning at the Division One Cafe or at least upper parts of the apartment where Jane worked, Maura liked to hang around Jane for whatever reason. Jane didn't mind tho, she liked to listen her googlemouth and sudden awkward situations with other people. Jane sometimes laughed at her, but silently she knew that she loved her for that.
"Any news, Korsak?", Jane asked as she put down her coffee and sat down to her desk. "Any of you seen Maura around?"
"No new case or anything, this will be relaxed day. And no, haven't seen Maura this morning", said Korsak and turned around to search for whatever file he was searching. Jane looked to Frost who shrugged and continued to finish his report.
"Maybe she's having a day off, Jane. We did finish the case yesterday", offered Korsak and sipped his coffee.
"No. I'd know about that..", muttered Jane. What's going on, Maura, we usually share everything. "I'm gonna call her, maybe she's stuck in a traffic", said the dark haired cop as she found her cellphone and started to dial up Maura's number. "Calling now.."
"Beep..Beep..Beep..." The phone rings.
"Beep..Beep..Click!" Someone got the phone.
"Hi Maura! I was wondering is everything alright, you were suppose to give me the finishing report this morning and-", Jane started a little bit uptight but soon got interrupted by weird noise she heard from the other end.
"Maura..? Are you there?" More unidentified noises and something that sounded like a whine. "OK, hang on a second. Frost could you track this call? Where's Maura?", Jane turned to Frost who immediately started tracking. He had the whole unit's cellphone numbers at his list already, just in case of possible emergencies like this.
The red ball in his screen focused on Maura's house.
"Alright, thank you Frost. And hang on Maura, I'm coming there". Jane shut the phone and took her gun, badge and keys. "OK guys, I'm going to check at Maura's, I'll call you if I need you."
"Right Jane, take it easy now. Maybe she just got stuck in the traffic", yawned Korsak and finished his coffee. This day was really going to be slow.
Frost perked up. "Yeah right, stuck on her 2000$ sheets." Jane mentally slapped Frost before storming out. She didn't like people to talk bad or make fun of Maura when she wasn't around to defend herself.
"What do you know about 2000$ sheets anyway, Frost..", she heard Korsak to sigh when the elevator's doors closed.
At Maura's place Jane parked her car and nearly run to the door. She quickly searched for the keys and stepped in. The house inside looked untouched and neat, she hoped her friend would be too. Carefully she walked through the living room and kitchen to the farthest part of the apartment where the bedroom was.
With one single kick Jane opened the door and stepped in pointing her gun to a very confused looking dog that sat on Maura's bed. The dog was red coated husky with hazel eyes. Jane was sure she had seen a dog like that somewhere else, but couldn't place it. Something in the dogs eyes looked familiar.
"Maura?", Jane kept asking but her focus just went to the dog that now stood before her. "Mau..ra..?", she asked one final time until everything went black.
