Here is the next chapter. It's a little dramatic. Let me know if you like it.

Chapter 2

Mia and Aidan hid in the bushes behind Kendall's apartment until they were sure that Anna and her band of investigators were gone.  They walked into Kendall's place and flipped on the lights.

"I'll search in here, you look in her bedroom. By the way, nice act at the police station I take it you've done that before?"

Mia tossed her hair, "Who said I was acting." 

Mia walked into Kendall's bedroom there were clothes thrown everywhere and small blood stains on the carpet.  Aidan searched the kitchen and found a note with Vegas scribbled on it.  He picked up the phone and called the airport,

"Can you tell me if there were any direct flights to Las Vegas last night?"

Mia came out of the bedroom and waited for Aidan to get off the phone.

"All right thank you. Damn it Kendall."

"Who was that?"

"The airport, Kendall took a midnight flight to Vegas."

"Oh my god, Aidan, we have to find her before the police do."

Mia grabbed Aidan's hand to run out of the apartment, but he stopped her.

"What did you mean when you said before the police do…did you find something?"

Mia shook her head,

"I think she killed Michael before she left Pine Valley."

"Why?"

"There's blood."

"Where is it?"

"It's in the bedroom."

Aidan rushed into the bedroom with Mia close behind.  He kneeled down by the red blotches.

"Damn."

******************************

 Mia and Aidan arrived in Las Vegas a few hours later.  Aidan called all the hotels and found out where Kendall was registered.

"That was fast, how did you find her?"

Aidan shook his head,

"She registered under her name.  Mia, I don't know what she is doing here, but I don't think she killed Michael."

"Yeah, she wouldn't use her real name if she was trying to hide from someone, but why else would she be here."

"I don't know but I'm going to find out."

As they walked into the hotel lobby Mia saw slot machines everywhere, she stopped to pull one.  The buzzers started going off and the word JACKPOT started rolling across the top of the machine.  Aidan looked behind his shoulder, Mia was not there.  He found her at the slot machine.

"Mia we don't have time for this, what the hell are you doing?"

"I won Aidan. This is the first time I've ever won anything."

Aidan took her wrist and pulled her along as he went to the front desk.

"Hey! What about my jackpot?"

"Forget it we don't have time for that."

"You can be a real jerk you know," Mia sighed under her breath.

"I heard that." 

Mia rolled her eyes.

"Excuse me, can you tell me what room Kendall Hart is in?" 

The clerk looked at them. 

"Who are you?"

"I'm her boyfriend."

"Oh really, then who is this sexy lady." 

Mia gave the clerk a 1,000 watt smile.  Aidan gritted his teeth and squinted.

"She is my sister."

"Hmmm…some how I find that hard to believe,  I'm sorry, we don't give out information about our guests to strangers."

Mia leaned into the desk

"Please, he really is my brother… well half brother you see mother had an affair with our butler.  Anyway he really needs to talk to his girlfriend; he thinks she is cheating on him.  After all this is over maybe you and I can get a drink cutie." 

"My shift is over at six."  The clerk typed in Kendall's name, "Ms. Hart is staying in room 304 on the third floor."

"Thank you."

"See you at six in the lobby?"

"You can count on it hot stuff."

They waited for the elevator.

"What would you do without me?"

"I probably would have found Kendall by now."

Mia hit him in the Arm and he smirked.  The elevator opened and Mia stood there in shock as she saw 'him' walk out of the elevator.
