Ok, shortish chapter ahead!
Hope you enjoy it though!

The next day, Armstrong hadn't returned from his assignment. Izumi banged her head hard on her desk and growled. Sheska lightly tapped on her door and took a few steps in.

"C-chief? Are you ok?" she asked in a small voice. Slightly startled, Izumi looked up.

"Oh, its you Sheska…." She sighed. "Three officers have gone missing. God knows where they've gone." Sheska thought for a moment.

"You mean Hughes and the others!" she gasped. Izumi nodded.

"Yup. Why is it always my best officers that go missing!" she said through gritted teeth. Sheska placed a steaming mug of coffee on her desk, and took a seat, holding her own mug in her hands.

"Thanks..." Izumi said, taking a sip from the steaming mug.

Sheska looked deep into her mug. Just like Izumi, she had seen many brilliant officers come and go unexpectedly. But there was something different about the three of them. Some of the other officers were cold and strict, but those three were always so kind towards everybody else, and they had strong bonds with everybody. She frowned. She hated her job, working on the force, although she was mainly forensics. Sheska hated the thought of losing anyone. She remembered when she had just joined the force, how they had welcomed her with open arms.

"Is something the matter Sheska?"
Sheska snapped back to reality. She looked at Izumi and smiled.

"Im ok chief" she assured her "Im just thinking about them…" Izumi leant back into her seat.

"Don't worry. Im going to do something about it." She said sternly. The phone on Izumis desk started ringing. She checked the caller ID.

"Strange…I don't know the number" she muttered, answering the phone and putting it on loudspeaker.

"Who is this?" she demanded straight away. Sheska grabbed a note book and a pen.

"Who? Why, I'm the one who has your officers, Miss Izumi Curtis!" the voice replied. Izumi wrote down the number and passed it to Sheska.

"Firstly, it's Mrs Curtis, and secondly, which of my officers do you have?" she enquired, her eyebrows furrowing. The voice chuckled.

"My apologies MRS Curtis!" he jeered. "And the officers I have are…Police investigator, Miss Lan Fan Li, Deputy investigator, Mr Maes Hughes, and Deputy chief of Police, Mr Alex Louis Armstrong."

Izumi felt herself get angrier by the second. First of all, the kidnapper had an annoyingly snobby tone of voice, and second of all, he obviously had their police badges. She started tapping her fingers on her desk. Sheska watched in silence.

"So….who the hell are you…?" she asked quietly. The voice laughed at her.

"First, are you alone?" he asked. Izumi looked at Sheska, who was waiting patiently to write something.

"Of course I am" she lied "now answer the question." The voice whistled.

"You got guts lady! How about you show that pretty face of yours down at the fishing pier, and then we can discuss all the nasty details…" he said. Izumi clenched her fists. She could tell he was grinning at the other end of the line. She rose to her feet, slamming her fist down on the table.

"DO NOT GIVE ME THAT SHIT!" she bellowed "JUST TELL ME WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU WANT WITH MY OFFICERS!" The voice laughed again.

"You'll have to come down here to find out!" it jeered "You have three days before we change our minds and eliminate the hostages. See ya!"

He hung up the phone before Izumi had the chance to react. She sat motionless, and then turned to Sheska.

"Did you write everything down!" she asked hastily. Sheska shook her head.

"No, but I did record it on this neat tape recorder I bought. Izumi smiled.

"Good, because this old lady has a plan…" she grinned. At that moment, Fuery and Havoc walked into the office, wondering what the yelling was about. They both saw the grin on her face, which seemed to extend from ear to ear. They both felt a chill run down their spine. Izumi looked at the two officers who were stood like potatoes at her door.

"What was that ruckus, chief?" Havoc asked, a lit cigarette hanging from his mouth.

"Is everything ok?" Fuery asked worriedly. Izumi chuckled.

"Sergeant." She began, addressing Fuery. Fuery quickly snapped into a salute.

"Yes sir!" he said. Izumi placed her hands on her hips.

"Do you like pizza?" she asked with a smile. Fuery gaped at her, along with Havoc and Sheska.

What on earth was she up to?

HAHA! Izumis evil plan! What could it be!

And more importantly, does Fuery like pizza!
