It was a tiring day for Bigby, as he spent the whole day in his tiny Office, arranging paperwork. It also didn't help that he kept thinking about Snow and Red. "For fuck's sake," he thought. He unbuttoned some of the buttons of his shirt, and put his tie aside. All this thinking was making him heated.

As he was going to grab one of his cigarettes, he heard steps approaching his office and soon enough he heard rushed knocks. Bigby sighed, and lit up his cigarette first. "Come in." He said, and he saw the Woodsman enter. The Wolf raised an eyebrow, he didn't normally come here to speak to him. "What do you want?" Bigby asked, not looking at him, but at his unfinished papers. "I know it's… unusual for me to come here. But.. Someone went missing." The Woodsman said, panicked.

"Who? And for how long has it been missing?" The Buffed man gulped, "Red Riding Hood. She's been missin' for almost two days! Please, find her." At this point Bigby looked confused. "Did you check her place? Anywhere she would be?"

"Yes, yes! I can't find her anywhere! We were… supposed to meet up in a park. But she never showed up." Bigby got up, and looked at the Woodsman for a second. "Okay," he started saying. "I'll do my best to find her." The other man nodded, "A'right. Make sure you bring her back.. safe. Thanks Bigby." And with that, the man left. Why would Red meet up with the Woodsman? Oh, right. Bigby sighed and headed out to the Business Office.

He entered, passing through a couple of people waiting to be attended. "Ms. Snow," he called out. "Give me a second," Snow said to Bluebeard, who just crossed his arms and shot Bigby a glare. The Business woman walked up to the sheriff, and placed her hands over her hips. Reminds me of that day she lectured me…

"Mr. Wolf, I'm guessing this is important for you to have interrupted a very important conversation." Snow said, sounding very strict. "A fable was reported missing. I need to use the mirror." Snow raised her eyebrows, "Who is? And okay, make sure you find that fable, we don't need any inconveniences." Bigby nodded, and walked over to the mirror, not bothering to answer her question.

As he walked up to the mirror, the big, green face showed up. "Greetings, Sheriff. What may you cherish?" The Wolf rolled his eyes. "Show me Red Riding Hood." The Mirror sighed, "Now, now. You know the rules." Bigby glared at the mirror. "Fine. Um, where is Red, is she eating… bread?" The Mirror seemed to shrug, somehow. The Magic Mirror's face disappeared, and Red was seen in an alley, her clothes ripped and passed out on the ground. Bigby's eyes widened, "Oh, no." Bigby recognized that alley, it was nearby the Subway.

"So, Bigby, did you find the fabl-" Snow was going to ask, but Bigby ran out of the room, heading to the alley. Snow looked annoyed, but brushed it off and continued her work. Bigby took a cab to the Subway station. The Sheriff was nervous, was Red dead? He didn't see any blood, but it could be. He hoped not.

As they arrived there, Bigby immediately paid the cab driver and got out the car before the driver could even park.

Bigby reached the alley, but he didn't find Red there. "What?" He thought to himself. "Where is she?" The wolf sniffed the area the fable was in, and tried to track her down. He walked a couple of blocks away from the alley, and the scent stopped in a building. He entered and sniffed until he found which apartment she was in.

'341' He read the apartment's number and kocked roughly. He could hear shuffling around the room, and he grew suspicious. Bigby backed away from the door a bit, he then ran towards the door and knocked it down. He heard a couple of gasps and he looked towards them. He saw Red laying down on a small couch, her bottoms completely gone but you could see they tried to put them back on, as they were on her ankles.

The young looking, three dudes, looked nervous and were looking from the Sheriff to the passed out girl. "Alright fellas. Let me guess - actually, I don't have time for this shit. You're coming with me." Bigby took out his handcuffs, and handcuffed them all.

The Sheriff called for some backup, since he had to also take Red. As the backup arrived, Bigby took Red and the other officers took the guys. "Oh, Red, what did they do to you?" He whispered to her.

Bigby took Red to the Business Office, and he called Dr. Swineheart. "What were you thinking, Bigby?" Snow asked the Sheriff, looking very pissed off. "You sent backup only to get some boys? Bigby, we can't go on terrorizing the city like this! Next time, please, please contact me first." Bigby looked annoyed, "Look Snow, I can't just go calling you every time I have the people in front of me, alright? I'm the Sheriff, and I will call for backup when I need it." With that said, the Wolf left her side and onto a nearby couch.

After 30 minutes, Dr. Swinehart came in. He checked Red while she was still unconscious. "She was definitely raped. She has a few scratches, with some dried out blood. Hm." The Doctor says. "Okay, anything else?"

"This girl was drugged. I will need to run some tests on her, so I'll be taking her with me. Not to worry, though. She'll be fine." Bigby frowned, but nodded. He didn't want Red to leave his side, but this was for the best.
