TO STOP A KILLER

ML: Chapter 4 in the house!

Bakura: Ok, here's the "Cole's Notes" version of Chapter 3.  After receiving an anonymous report, Yugi and Joey go to the scene of the latest murder committed

             by our little murderer, and investigated what happened.  After that, we all got involved in a little car chase.  Later in the night, Tristan and Serenity got

             involved when someone slipped a bomb into the restaurant where they were having a dinner date!

ML: Ok.  I don't own YGO, but I do own all original characters!  ROLL IT!

Chapter 4 – Search Warrant

            Yugi and Joey were over at Yugi's Cubicle at the Domino P.D., 31st Precinct.  It was just another day on the job.  Of course, they obviously wanted to hear about the autopsy results.  Then, Joey's cell started ringing.  He picked it up, and activated the phone.

Joey: Wheeler here.

Tristan: Glad you answered! 

Joey: WHERE'S MY SISTER?

Tristan: Geez.  She's fine, and at my place.

Joey: You better have not do anything, or I'll arrest your butt!

Tristan: Man, give me a break!  Anyway, while Serenity and me were over at the restaurant, some guy came in, and slipped a briefcase right near the sushi bar.  I

            noticed something was amiss, and I was right, because inside that case was a bomb!

Joey: WHAT?

Tristan: Someone tried to take out Serenity and me! 


Joey: Oh man!  Listen, I'll tell Kaiba.  Maybe his assistants and him might have done an autopsy on the bodies.

Tristan: Right.  I'll see you.


Joey: Bye.

            Yugi asked, "Who was it?"  Fearing the worse for his two blood brothers. 

            Joey, who looked like he'd seen a ghost, was shocked.  He shook it off, and said, "It was Tristan.  While Serenity and him were over at the sushi restaurant, someone slipped a bomb inside, and attempted to blow them up." 

            Yugi went postal at that little piece of news.  He was like, "I can't believe this!" 

            Joey fired back, "Believe it buddy.  Someone tried to take out one of loyal blood brothers." 

            Yugi looked at his e-mail, and saw the notification from Kaiba.  The autopsy results were in.  Time to go to the coroner.

            Yugi and Joey left the station, and Joey, as usual, was driving fast.  However, Yugi got the feeling that they were both being watched.  He looked into the rear-view mirror, and saw a black car right behind them.  He was right.  They were being followed.  But who was it?  The car then turned right when they were entering the morgue.

            Yugi thought, 'That was weird.'  Joey and Yugi then entered the morgue, and saw Leah, who offered a hearty hello, and the reminder of having both cops show them their badges.  Once they did, they entered, and saw Kaiba.  He said, "Yugi, Joey." 

            Joey said, "Enough with the pleasantries.  What are the results?"

            Kaiba answered, "Well, from what I can piece together, the girl was first shot in the head, and then, her ear got cut off." 

            Joey and Yugi both got a little squeamish.  But Yugi asked another question.  "You got a name?"

            Kaiba answered, "Yeah.  She goes by the name of Jane.  Jane Weinlin." 

            Joey then asked, "You got her address?"

            Kaiba said, "Yeah.  Here.  It's 4834 Purono Ave." 

            Yugi said, "Thanks."  Then he and Joey left.  But, Kaiba replied, "WAIT!  I've got something for you guys!"  He then revealed a Ziploc bag.  Inside was the bullet that was lodged in the victim's head when she got shot. 

            Joey said, "Thanks."  The two then left, and Mokuba came in, gave the guys the personal effects, and the two left.  They weren't even two blocks away when they saw Téa and Mai getting mugged.  Joey stopped the car, and the two got out with their guns raised. 

"FREEZE!"  Yelled Yugi.  The two would-be muggers saw them, and began to run to a getaway car.  Joey replied, "Yugi.  Tell Bakura that we need transport.  I'll ask Mr. Weinlin the questions." 

Yugi replied, "Right."  Yugi then reached for his talkie, and then said, "Car no. 42, this is officer Yugi Motou.  I need transport right away.  Officer Wheeler's taking care of the muggers.  Over."

Bakura, who was inside his car, said, "10-4.  I'm on my way.  Over and out."

Bakura's car came in just a few minutes, and Yugi, Téa and Mai where escorted back to both Téa and Mai's houses.  Then Yugi was dropped to the

station, where the bomber was inside a negotiation room.  He was being bombarded with questions, but he was avoiding the big one: Who hired him.  It was then that Yugi lost it, walked in, and asked, almost angrily, "WHO HIRED YOU TO BOMB THE RESTAURANT LAST NIGHT?"

            The man, who was trembling with fear, said, "Someone named… Marik… Ishtar!"

            Yugi said, "Thanks." 

            Joey came back, with the two muggers, and said, "Yuge.  I got everything done."

            Yugi replied back, "So did I.  Time to pay a visit to the warrant department."

            Joey, who looked a little nervous dealing with the way Yugi said it, said, "Uh, Sure."

            The two got down to the warrant department, where the man in charge, Mako Tsunami, was waiting.  He looked up, and said, "Yugi."

            Yugi said, "Mako, can you get to the database and look up a Marik Ishtar?"

            Mako replied, "Yeah.  It'll be done."  Mako's fingers ran across the keyboard, and the database found Marik's basic info, especially where he lived.  "Your guys' story checks out.  Here's his address: 5291 Ulindo Street."  He began to print out something.  "It's a search warrant.  I'm going to give you guys permission to search his place.  Once you've got enough evidence, and run it by both me and your captain, I'll give you the arrest warrant, and you can slap on the cuffs."

            Yugi and Joey both replied, "Got it."  Joey and Yugi ran to their cruiser, and got over to Marik's place, but not before running it by Captain Tey.  Of course, he was at work, and the two started looking for some more clues.  It was almost fruitless, until Joey saw a pair of familiar clothing: the light blue hooded sweatshirt, a pair of gray cargo pants, and two black gloves on the dresser.  Yugi got out the digital camera from the trunk of the cruiser, and started snapping pictures.  Then, Joey saw a gun in Marik's closet. He took out the ammo clip, and saw the bullets.  He compared those bullets with the bullet Kaiba had given him.  The bullet was  a perfect match.  Yugi took the picture of the bullet and the gun, and bagged them.  Then, as they were about to leave, they saw the knife.  It was in a little garden around at the backyard.  The bloodstains were still on it.  Yugi bagged that as well.  Then, there was the mother lode.  In Marik's office, were the plans for each murder, and a few more. Even the bombing plans were there.  

            Yugi took the blueprints, and walked away.  Throwing each piece of evidence in the trunk.  The two went back to the morgue, and talked to Kaiba. 

            Kaiba said, "Well, I'll check."  Yugi and Joey waited patiently, and Kaiba said, "Well, you guys are right on the money.  The blood that was on the knife matches the blood on the body of one Margaret Golden."  The two, hearing this news, left for the station.

            While there, they went to Yugi's cubicle, printed out the pictures to show to the evidence guys and warrant department.  Two copies each.  Then they showed the evidence, where officer Eriksson was, and the story checked out there.  After that, the two cops went down to the warrant department, where they told Mako.  He had heard enough.  He said, "The evidence is sufficient enough."  He then printed out a document.  It was an arrest warrant.  "Here it is.  He works at Domino Port.  Go and book him."  Then the two went up to the captain, who had heard from Eriksson and Tsunami.  He then gave Yugi and Joey the go-ahead.

The two made their point, and went for the port.  Time to get their man.
