Hey people. Here's another chapter for the story. I hope you're all enjoying and I just want to tell everyone that R.F.C. is an OC who won't really have a lot of actually appearances in the story beside letters and maybe other cameos until more to the end. Anyway I hope that that won't knock any of you out of reading the story but if it does then there's your warning and again the lemons will probably be later in the story this is not a lemony story. Okay let's begin.
I do not own Naruto or any of the Law and Order series.
Naruto and Hinata made it back to the precinct both wondering who this person was that seemed so interested in Naruto. Hinata was worried about Naruto. He had enough to worry about beside another person that seemed to be after him. Hinata wondered what Naruto was thinking as they entered Kakashi's office.
"Well what did you two find?" Kakashi asked.
"Well it looks like someone had some sort of religious vendetta against the guy. We heard he was some sort of atheist leader so maybe someone either did themselves or knew what they were doing or hired someone themselves." Hinata said. Kakashi looked over at Naruto who looked like he was in deep thought and asked.
"What do you think about it?" Naruto looked up.
"I don't think this was a religious vendetta. Just look at the cross. It didn't look like a regular crucifix; it looked like four smaller ones coming together in the middle to form a new cross. Plus I talked to the gardener and he said that he wasn't one to shove his beliefs down your throat. And when we searched the cross we found a letter inside." Naruto said.
"A letter saying what?" Kakashi asked.
"It said the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Does that make us friends? And it was addressed to me." Naruto replied.
"That could me we're dealing with someone who knows you. Maybe an old criminal you put away, a cop that doesn't like you, or it could be her. Start checking his background." Kakashi said. Naruto knew who he meant. Naruto and Hinata left the office. Hinata was worried about Naruto since it seemed like another person was after him.
"So where do you want to start?" Naruto asked.
"I say we start with the family they might know something." Hinata said and Naruto nodded and they left to go to the address they looked up.
A while later they came to the house that was only a few blocks from where the crime scene was. They went up to the house and rang the doorbell. It was soon answered by a man in his late 30s.
"Oh hello you must be the detectives for my brother's case. Please come in." He said. "My name is Matthew Andrews my brother Montgomery last contacted us only yesterday, but not on friendly terms." Naruto answered.
"Oh, and why is that, was there something that was going on between the family that caused this unfriendly meeting?"
"Yeah, you see my brother was the only one in our family that went against God, so to speak. We are a religious family so when he stopped going to church with us when we were younger it started to cause confrontation between the family. He told us five years that he was atheist and formed a group. At first I was find with it, but then he started coming over and I thought it would help us all come together again, but instead he started to talk to my daughter Angel and it seemed to myself and my wife that he was trying to convert our daughter to be an atheist. When he confronted him he said that he had every right to talk to out daughter about what she believed and if she asked he would answer her questions about why he was atheist. We told him to stop and he told us no. We told him to leave and he continued to talk to our daughter through email and when we weren't around. Finally we threatened to sue around three months ago and he threatened to countered he would sue us over custody of Angel. It has been going on for almost three months." Matthew said. Naruto had listened carefully to his story.
"Did he sue you for custody before or after you sued him?" he asked.
"Actually before now that you mention it. When we asked him what had gotten into him he said his girlfriend had convinced him it was the right thing to do." He said.
"A girlfriend, did he mention a name?" Naruto asked.
"No, and we never met her. He said she was always busy."
"How long had they been dating?" Naruto asked.
"He told us they started dating around the time that the arguments started happening, some time before." Matthew said.
"Okay thank you for your time." Naruto said as he got up. Naruto and Hinata left and Naruto turned to Hinata. "He said the fights started to occur right after his brother started to date this woman. She may have been egging him on to fight with his family." He said.
"But why? What could she get out of it?" Hinata asked.
"Well this fight really started round the girls Angel, and by the end he was fighting for custody. Maybe this woman wanted the girl, or to have a family that included the girl." Naruto said.
"I don't like where this is going." Hinata said looking worried as they drove to the station.
The rest of the day was dedicated to looking over the material they had and checking over old evidence from cases they didn't want to relive. Their shift ended and the two left the precinct.
"Need a ride home Naruto?" Hinata asked in his first name since they were off duty.
"Sure thanks." He said. He got on his side of his car and prepared got in. But before he was he swore he could feel that someone was watching him with a little more interest than one should have. He looked around and saw no one.
"Hey Naruto, you okay?" Hinata asked.
"Yeah, yeah just thinking is all." He said as he looked around once again and got in the car. They soon drove away out of sight.
"He knew I was watching him. Hehe, he's got good instincts." A person got out from behind the pillar and left the precinct completely unnoticed. Who would notice them anyway it wasn't human nature to care about something that wasn't there business.
Naruto got home and thank Hinata who smiled at him and said her goodbye and drove away. Naruto just looked at her car as he drove away thinking the thoughts he usually did when he watched her drive away. He shook his head and walked into his apartment building. It got to his apartment and opened it. He turned on the light and went to the kitchen and got something to eat. No matter what he couldn't help but keep a few instant ramen in his fridge. He took one and started eating it. As he made his way to his bedroom with his ramen he turned on the light so he could turn on the TV, but he noticed a note on his pillow. He picked it up and read it.
-Seems kind of lonely here friend; looks like you need another pillow next to yours. Maybe I could help. For what are friends for.
Sincerely, R.F.C.
The ramen dropped from his hand. How had he gotten into his house? How did this guy know where he lived and what did he want with him. Naruto couldn't help but look at the pillow. Why did this guy want to help him? He cleaned up the ramen picked up his stuff, made sure to lock everything and left. He wasn't getting any sleep tonight.
-With Hinata-
Hinata entered her apartment and couldn't help but feel bad that there wasn't anyone there and just sighed. She made herself a meal and started to watch TV. She felt cold which was odd since she had the heater on and tried to find the source. She followed the cold air into her room and found her window opened. She closed it and then realized that she never kept her windows open when she was away. She quickly pulled out her gun and turned around. There was…
No one.
She relaxed and then looked and saw a note on her pillow. She picked it up and read it.
-Hello there. I am the friend of a friend and I see you seem lonely when you enter your apartment for those eyes tell all. My friend is lonely why don't you help?
Sincerely R.F.C.
Hinata was shocked; the murder had sent her a message. She realized that he seen her when she had entered her apartment and seen her eyes. How the hell did he see her? Hinata picked up her stuff, locked everything, and left. She had to see Naruto right now. She picked up her cell phone and called him She hoped he was okay.
Oh that was creeping was it not? I rather enjoyed that chapter and hopefully you did too. Anyway thanks for reading and please review, alert, favorite and all that good stuff. Thanks and bye.
