Chapter 5
When Maura walked towards the hospital the next morning, she was still very cold and heartless. She needed to be strong she knew it but, she could not bring herself up enough to move on. She sighed as she sat on a park bench after she brushed off the snow that had coated it. It was now Christmas eve. The holy of all holidays. She was supost to fly to Pairs to spend her Christmas with her mother with Jane but, since Jane is gone, she had no reason to go. She sighed heavily as she wept softly. She needed to get a hold of herself. What would Jane said when she saw her like this? The blonde looked at the small patch of grass that was now covered in snow within minites. Maura sighed softly letting a breath of cold air come out.
"Hey! Hey miss!" Someone shouted when Maura stood up. She turned around quickly to see who it was. It was a stranger, a woman stranger that is. She ran up towards the blonde and tried to catch her breath. Maura held the pity woman up and smiled softly at her.
"A...Are you by any chance Dr. Maura Isles?" The small woman asked. The hazel eyed person nodded back at the black haired raven girl to continue on.
"Well," She paused for a breif moment to collect her thoughts. Maura didn't push her for information yet because, she was just starting to claim down from her runners high. When the woman was about to speak again, a young little girl ran towards her giggling and laughing. The woman smiled apologitic and turned over and picked up her daugther. They held each other tight for what seemed like days when it was only a few moments. The little girl looked at Maura and smiled a small smile. Maura looked at the little girl and thought of Jane, and how she would love this child.
"My daugther has something to say to you Miss. Isles."
"I, I found this note inside my book." The red haired girl fished around her jacket in till she founded a small piece of paper folded up. She handed Maura the note as Maura taken it gently from the girls fingers. She opened it and gasped at what handwriting she saw...
Dear Maura,
If you are reading this, then I know that April had done her job. I knew April from the time I had saved her from a serial killer and I knew I could thrust her. Anyways, I told her to give it to you whenever I get lost. I hope she remembered it was in her book. Anyways, if you find this note, it means I have been ineed kidnapped once again. I need you to do something for me, find whoever would have killed me or, find me. I need you Maur. I'm counting on you.
Love,
Jane Rizzoli.
Maura didn't realized she had read the note out loud and the little girl squirmed in her mother's tight arms. She reached towards the blonde as Maura went to hold her. The mother gently let the little girl slip into the blonde's arms.
"Jane Rizzoli? I know her. She saved my life from a bad man." The little girl commented who's name was April.
"Yes. Now I remember you. I'm so happy that you are alright now April."
The little girl giggled and smiled missing a front tooth.
"The tooth fairy is coming to my room tonight to give me moneys."
"That's so sweet April."
The mother held her self as she let out a few tears from the relationship she had with these woman. These where strong, indepentant woman and April got to be friend's with them. Well, she knew Jane for along time from the school years and where best friend's with her. Anna sighed softly as she lifted the child out of Maura's arms and into her own.
"I'm very sorry about Jane, Maura. I sure hope you find her."
Maura nodded as she waved by to the girl as the mother walked away. Maura ran back towards the station to tell Frost and Korsak what she had just discovered. The boys where surprised that Jane would do such a thing but, where grateful for some connection outside of there case. They where going to have to talk to April though, and why Jane would even consider having a little girl help her. Sean was impressed by Rizzoli but also, concerned for April and Anna. They needed to find Jane's killer or kindnapper if it was the last thing they do.
Finally uh? well review?
