Chapter 2

Frost and Korsak walk in noticing Jane asleep on her desk, papers sprawled out everywhere and her phone flashing like crazy. Frost walks over and places a coffee next to her before tapping her shoulder. Waking up, Jane looks over rubbing her eyes at the light.

"oh god...wait its morning? crap!"

Jane sits up quickly and takes a sip of her coffee collecting all the papers. Frost and Korsak look at each other confused.

"Jane?..did you find something?"

Frost asks curious. Jane gets up and grabs her jacket heading to the door.

"no ..nothing but I need to get to lock up I'll see you guys in a bit"

Heading out and down on the elevator, Jane heads straight to Maura's cell opening the door and walking in. Looking over she saw the blonde laying on the bed facing the wall. Not wanting to make her jump, Jane gives the door a slight knock before closing it behind her. Walking over she notices the blonde does not move.

"are you going to talk today?"

Waiting for a response, Jane goes and sits on the edge of the bed. Pushing a strand of hair back she bits her lip sighing.

" look I want to help you and I can't do that if you don't talk..I've looked at your file ..you're going to be a pathologist and that takes..brains"

" were..."

Frowning Jane looks over hearing her speak quietly.

"sorry?"

" you were going to be a pathologist...clearly not now I'm in jail"

" oh..well you get what I mean why throw it all away?"

Maura looks over at her a second then sits up looking at her.

" I ..don't know"

Jane looks at her and frowns noticing a slight cut on her forehead.

" you cut yourself ..was itself defence?"

Maura realizes what she has seen and looks away. Jane looks at her hopeful for her to carry on.

" no...that wasn't him..it's nothing"

"doesn't look like nothing..tell me"

Maura looks at her again and moves over so she sitting next to her. Jane watches as she moves and noticing her fiddling with her ring again.

"you keep doing that..is it sentimental..the ring?"

Maura nods and stops fiddling with it.

"it was my mother's ..but that doesn't matter..I ..my family it's not your average family"

"you're telling me..I've seen in you file who your father is..but families are hard..mine drive me insane"

Jane gives her a slight smile trying to break the tension. Maura smiles a little realizing what she is doing.

"okay do you know what ..stay here don't talk to me..but I will be back and I will keep coming back every day until you do talk to me"

Maura frowns looking at her.

" are you trying to threaten me?"

"what? no ..I just mean..I'm not giving up yes I am a detective who to do my job needs to find the truth but ..I also see when people are innocent and I believe that you are even if you don't"

Maura looks astonished as Jane gets up heading to the cell door.

" you mean that don't you"

Jane looks back at her and nods.

"yes I do..I will see you very soon"

Looking at her computer screen, Jane bites her lip looking down at her file.

"what's missing.."

questioning to herself quietly she types in Doyle's name to the system and any links or contacts. Reading what is in the file, Jane looks over at Korsak sat at his desk.

"Korsak..you were a cop right at the beginning of Doyle's trials right?"

Looking over at Jane he nods.

" yes I had just become a detective..why what have you found?"

"it's not what I have found it's what I am trying to find ..was there any mention of a woman ..he had been seeing or ..had contact with?"

Getting up Korsak walks over to see where she is up to. Jane passes the files over and looks up at him.

" well back when he got his first criminal charges he was about to take over from his father as the ring leader but ..he had met some college girl 18...and at first he was going to give everything up for this girl..next thing she's disappeared and he's more evil than ever"

" Did this woman ever have a name? I think she may have a connection to Maura ..but so far Maura is still not talking"

"no ..Doyle made sure of that..everything was kept quiet and no one ever knew why..some say to protect her from Doyle's father ..some say he killed her ..we never found out"

Jane nods taking a breath.

" I really wish she would just ..talk she's hiding something and I think it could break this whole thing wide open including some previous convictions"

"why don't you go and see if there is any more evidence down in the crime lab there is a cover ME down there apparently Pike needed a break"

"wow really ..no complaints there"

Jane gets up smiling at what they were saying and heads to the crime lab walking in noticing the ME.

"Dr...?"

Looking over at Jane, the ME smiles putting an evidence casing down and pulling her gloves off walking over holding her hand out.

"Martin..Dr Martin"

Jane nods shaking her hand.

"Detective Rizzoli..nice to meet you..and kinda glad Pike isn't here but we won't go into that"

Smiling Dr Martin nods and goes back to the body.

"he can be an..awkward man so to speak..I'm sorry but I'm afraid I do not have any other new evidence to give ..it's all there..if you do not mind me asking have you got a lead on it?"

Jane looks at her realizing she looks slightly familiar.

" erm..yea we have someone in holdup..any evidence you have could you send to Pike ..he hates being kept out the loop"

Dr Martin nods and goes over to the computer sending the information over. Within a minute her phone goes off answering she looks at Jane.

"excuse me a moment.."

Dr Martin walks just outside the room to talk to Pike leaving Jane to look at the x ray of the bullet in Colin. Hearing the door swing open again she looks over seeing a sickly looking Doctor.

" are you okay?"

"..no ..I..I think I may need to sit down"

Jane quickly grabs the computer chair over to her and helps her sit down. Dr Martin looks at her placing the phone down.

"That was Pike ..he was all excited at his news..he said that..this had..Doyle written all over it.."

" well yes we do have a bowler out on him ..we believe he is linked to this and its hardly surprising with his background"

Dr Martin nods and looks over at the body.

" I always knew ..but I've never seen one of ..Paddy's victims before"

Jane looks at her frowning at the name she uses.

"Paddy?..did you know him?"

"many years ago ..yes I did..I more than knew him but it ended badly so I left..I swore to myself to never get caught up in anything to do with him again yet here I am doing an autopsy on one of his conquests"

"oh..well no ..I mean it does not appear that it was Doyle who did this ..it was ..well no again the evidence so far leads to a female killer"

"a new "friend" I should imagine.."

"no actually his daughter"

"his has a daughter?"

" yes she is who we have downstairs"

"wow ..he's had another daughter I wonder who put up with him this type"

Looking at her trying to put the pieces together Jane questions.

"another daughter?"

Dr Martin nods looking down taking a breath.

" I..we had a daughter..Maura"

Jane looks at her wide eyed realizing she is the mother that Maura had spoke about. Going back to the door Jane apologises.

" I'm sorry I have to go back upstairs I just..I thought of something ..I hope you feel better ..bye"

Jane runs out the lab and upstairs to Maura's cell and pushes the door open quickly.

"Maura your mother is downstairs!"

Maura sits up hearing her looking shocked.

" I'm sorry what?"

Author's note: I can see some people might see it hard to believe that Hope would not realize Maura being alive but like she said she completely ignored everything Doyle and she was only covering for Pike so she is not usually handling these cases! Hope you enjoyed! :)
