Chapter 1 - It begins.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------
The rain was pounding down hard as Joey ran into the police station. He had been working here for the past ten years, and was now a Chief Inspector. Calls of 'Morning Sir' rang out as he made his way to his office. He returned the greetings with a friendly smile and a wave. Once in his small office, he took off his soaking trench coat and hat and slung them on the stand. He proceeded to slump down behind his desk. His office was a mess. People were always saying that he needed a filing system, but Joey had one. He preferred to keep things in his head, and he could normally find whatever file he wanted from the scattered mess. He smiled at the picture on his desk. It had been taken two years ago. It was of him and all of his friends in the park back in Domino. They had been having a picnic. This picture was often what kept him going in the rougher times. Down the front, sitting on the blue and white chequered picnic blanket were Yugi and Tea. Yugi's arms were wrapped around Tea's neck and she had both of hers on her swollen stomach. The child had been born the following month. Joey wished he could have been there, but he was tracking down a psycho who had blown up a bus. There was his sister Serenity. Smiling as happy as you please, with Tristain and Duke standing either side of her. He chuckled to himself, both had tried to win her affection and she wound up marrying the quite Bakura. The white haired boy in question was sitting cross-legged near Yugi and Tea, and was smiling up at Serenity, rather than the Camera. His eyes then fell on Mokuba, Noah and Seto Kaiba who were standing to one side. Seto maintaining a look of dignity save for the smile directed at his siblings, Mokuba was smiling broadly with an arm slung around Noah's shoulders, and Noah stood with arms crossed and looking a little grumpy. He then looked up at the pair at the very back, and he touched at one of them. There was him, smiling cheerfully with his arms wrapped around the person beside him, and the other leaning in on his chest, with her arms wrapped around his neck. Mai Valentine. Mai was the only one he had seen since the picture was taken. They weren't strictly dating. Every day at lunchtime, except if he was out on a case, they would meet for lunch, and at the weekends they would go to the cinema together. Joey then looked over the posters adorning the walls. He had tracked the progress of his friends closely, although he hadn't seen most of them in almost two years. There were pictures advertising boxing matches, Tristain had a shot at the world heavy weight next week, Joey hopped he could see the match. There were many posters from ballet performances staring Tea, and clippings from documents concerning digs the Yugi had led. He had a menu pinned up from the restaurant run by Serenity and Bakura, and even clippings concerning business ventures launched by Duke and Kaiba. And almost every article ever written by Mai. Mai was now a reporter, and many of Joey's superiors shunned his friendship with her, saying she was just trying to get in on whatever case Joey was working on. Fact was, they never talked about the cases, not in detail anyway. Joey missed his friends dearly. He had meant to go and visit last Christmas, but he couldn't leave his case. He had been given the chance, but refused. Some bastard had killed a kid, a KID for god's sakes, and there was no way in hell he was going to let him get away with it. Ah well.maybe this summer.
A man in a long brown coat, with a broad rimmed hat marched into the police station, forcing his way past the officers who tried to stop him. The man headed straight towards Joey's office.
"Sir! Sir! You can't go in there."
"I'm quite sure the Chief inspector won't mind." The man replied coldly, not shifting from his forward gaze.
The officer continued to stop the man, but failed, as he soon burst into Joey's office.
"I'm sorry sir. I couldn't stop him!" The officer blurted.
Joey looked up from the paper he was reading, he only bought the one paper, simply because it was the one where Mai's articles appeared. Otherwise he caught the news on the radio. He was able to see into the shadows of the man's hat and see into the cold eyes. He knew those eyes, and a grin grew on his face.
"It's okay Higgins. You can go now."
The young officer turned and left, closing the door behind him.
"You can sit down y'know Kaiba." Joey smiled.
The man did as bid and removed his hat, revealing his brown hair and cold blue eyes.
"How did you know it was me?" He asked rather surprised.
Joey smirked.
"Give me some credit. I didn't get here on luck y'know. It's your eyes, dead give away. No one else has eyes as cold as yours Kaiba.
Kaiba looked nervous which struck Joey as odd.
"Not so loud.I don't want anyone to know I'm here."
Joey smiled.
"I know."
Kaiba was even more surprised.
"It was simple really. You're wet, meaning you walked rather than take the limo. You were wearing that hat to hide your face, when you normally use and umbrella to keep the rain off of your face. You also barged in here, which is against your normally stealthy sneaky approach."
Kaiba sat in the chair, completely shocked at Joey's detective skills.
"That, and I read all about it in the newspaper. And don't worry, this room is sound proof."
He held up the newspaper, with a grin on his face. The article on the front page was talking about the murder of the head of Maxis Corp. Mr Maxis, founder and president of Maxis Corp, had been found dead, shot through the heart. Also, archaeologist Yugi Muto was in hospital after an attempt on his life. The only linking factor between the two, was Seto Kaiba. Both had been shot with the same gun. Maxis had been attempting to take over Kaiba Corp and Yugi was the only person to ever beat Kaiba (fairly), something he was still sore over. Kaiba smirked at Joey.
"So you knew and you still let me in?"
Joey put the paper down, a serious look on his face.
"I know that my best friend was almost killed, and that the head of your rival company was killed. And I know that you aren't behind it."
"How so? For all you know, I could be planning to kill you too."
Joey chuckled.
"I know you Kaiba. And I know you wouldn't shoot Yugi."
Kaiba raised an eyebrow.
"If you killed them, then he dies with your title, and you just want your title back, nothing else."
Kaiba smiled.
"I was right to come from you for help." He got up and began to read an article on the wall. "I want to be frank Wheeler. I still don't like you. But.I do trust you. And that's what I need right now. I knew I would be incriminated for the murders. Because I had motive, opportunity, and means. And the gun used was mine. I don't know how, but it was mine."
Joey lounged back in his chair.
"Lemme guess. You want me to find out who's framing you."
Kaiba looked back at Joey, his face was a little worried, which worried Joey.
"Yes. But I've also come to tell you that I think I know who's the next target."
The next minute, Joey was running out of his office pulling on his coat and putting on his hat. Kaiba followed him, hat pulled over his face. Joey bundled himself into his car and Kaiba sat down next to him, and was jerked back as the car shot off. The next target was someone who had plagued Kaiba Corp for a long time, constantly reporting on the harmful effects of their factories, and errors made by the board and many other things. In fact, Kaiba had been reading one of her articles in Joey's office.
Mai Valentine smiled as her cat ran up to meet her as she got into her apartment. She checked, but had no messages on the machine. She put some milk in her cat's bowl and sat down to have a cup of tea. Not noticing the window that had been shut when she left, that was now open.
