Just so you all know this story is dedicated to my dog 'Max' who will have to be put down because he is old and has artharitus, his back legs look like they are gonna do the splits, oh and on the first chapter where it says its "Ally's" birthday on 14th March, thats my birthday and thats my dogs aswell. I was 6 months old when my older brother found him in 1995 and Max was also 6 months old so we (me mostly) made Max' birthday the same day as mine, so this story goes out to him.


Year 2057

"What happened next grandma?" Hope asked. (aged 9)

"Well my sister Nikki had to take me to work with her one day because our parents were away on business, I wouldn't go anywhere that had that many hours without Max, Nikki worked for at least 7-8 hours" she answered.

"Really, not even for 2 hours?" Michael wondered. (aged 12)

"Nope, Max was my best friend, I was lucky enough that my sister said yes" she smiled.


"Ally!" Nikki call from the bottom of the stairs.
Ally was in her room lay on her bed with Max next to her watching the movie 'K9' which Max wanted to watch, Ally just showed him some movies and he only barked at that one, indicating he wanted to watch it. Ally heard her sister calling and quickly got off her bed and went out of her room, Max just stayed were he was, he looked like he was to into the movie than to see what Nikki wanted.

Ally stopped at the top of the stairs, "what?" she wondered, "mom said I have to watch you tomorrow while there away for a 2 days, Jazz is staying over at her friends house until they come back which her friends parents have agreed on-." she said unable to finish.

"so why did you call and disturb me then?" she interrupted.
"So because I'm at work tomorrow you will have to come with me so I expect you to be up and ready early in the morning." she said finishing her sentence.

"Only if I can bring Max" she told her. Nikki thought about it for a moment, "fine, but you BOTH have to behave, I don't wanna solve another crime" she answered.

"Coolness" Ally said as she went back to her room and lay back down next to Max.

"Guess where your going tomorrow boy, your going to work with me and Nikki, so that means no funny business" she told him, but he was just to fixed on the TV to notice she was speaking to him, all he did was lick his lips. Ally laughed and stroked him, "I swear your showing off how smart you are by ignoring me".

It was early in the morning at about 5:37am and Ally HAD to wake up otherwise Nikki would pour a bucket of cold water on her, she has been trying to wake her up for 30 minuit's now and Ally didn't like it one bit. when she finally got up and out of bed, which Max did by barking in her face, she quickly put her makeup on, brushed, straitened her hair and got dressed, she put a leash on Max and got in the car.

Once they arrived at the crime lab Max started to jump around in the car so it was tough to calm him down, Ally got him out and walked to the entrance with a jumping dog and a hardly amused Nikki. On the way to the elevators people kept on staring at her and Max like they've never seen a dog before, but she just ignored them and carried on.

One they got to the floor where she works she got even more pairs of eyes, but she just tried to carry on until someone stopped the three of them. She was Beautiful, she had long blonde hair and green eyes that looked blue, wearing high heals, but or some reason she showed a little bit of a sad face and a small smile.

"Hey Cal" Nikki greeted

"Hey Nik, Who are these two?" she asked.

"This is my little sister Ally and her dog Max, I had to bring her to work because our parents are away for a few days, Max is here because she insisted he come" she replied.

"Hey I'm Calleigh" she said and gave her a small smile.

"hey" she said shyly.

"So Nikki we've got a crime down at Miami U, so grab your kit and I will meet you down at the hummer" Calleigh told her.

"ok see you in a minuite" with that calleigh disapeared, she turned back to Ally "Ok, im gonna leave you both in the break room, if you do any wondering.....don't touch anything and I mean ANYTHING" she told her.

"Ok ok I won't touch anything, no need to tell me twice", "move it" Nikki said and turned her around to where the break room is, told her were everything was if she needed something to eat or drink etc; with that Nikki left to meet Calleigh.

She sat down on the sofa and max just followed her and sat infront of her, then the sound of the break room door opening cought both of there attention, they both looked over and saw a tanned man, Ally thought he looked Cuban but very cute.

"hey, are you Nikki's little sister Jazz?" he asked while walking over to the coffee machine

"Ally actually" she guessed that someone else would get them mixed up.

"My apologies" he apologized

"No problem, people always get us mixed up because we look alike" she laughed a little, so did he.

"who's this?" he indicate to Max who was lay by her feet, and popped his head up.

"This is Max, he's my dog, I wanted to bring him with me" Ally replied.

"Well he's a cute dog" he said with a little laugh but hardly smiled, "don't see many of them breeds in Miami"

"how come?" she wondered.

"Don't know, but I think there originally from Japan" He replied as he was walking to the door, "well better get back to work, see you around" he said but stopped at the door, "oh by the way I'm Eric" she smiled "It was nice meeting you Eric" she said and then he walked out.

She noticed that he and Calleigh didn't seem to be at all happy 'OK you work on a job which isn't a joyful one but I mean show some happiness at least' she thought to her self, she turned to Max and leaned over to stroke him, she was about to say something when she saw something black move past the break room at the corner of her eye, she looked up to see and she saw a red haired man in a black suit with sunglasses on his face walk past, she thought that by the looks of it he must be Horatio Caine the lieutenant of the lab, Nikki told her about him, about how great he was and that she looked up to him and she said other great things about him, when Ally heard about all these great things she became inspired by him.

But when he walked past, she saw that he also had a very sad face on him, and wondered what was going on with everyone.


She was at home now and she was sat on the steps outside of her house.

she turned to Max.

"whats going on boy, somethings going on, I've seen those sort of faces before, when someones lost someone they put those kind of faces on, I mean some of them work as officers as well so they must of lost one of there own. they also look so distant, Calleigh looked a little distant with Nikki." she told him looking around the street and then turning back to him.

"Maybe you can help them, you know, make them happy....become one again" she whispered slitely, "I don't like to see people sad."


Year 2057

"They actually did lose someone that day, a man called Tim Speedle, they were very close to him, and I felt quite bad, so I wanted to help them, put a smile back on there faces" The old woman said. (A/N who you should know by now, is Ally)
