The Employer

" Vhere the fuck have you been!" the angry indigo man shouted as he watched Marie casually waltz through the doors of the police station. His eyes glowed slightly with a bit of anger but the relief wasquite evident.

" Hey, calm down, calm down! It's good to see you too ya know!" Marie snorted as she stoof a few feet from him, her hands upon her hips.

" I'll tell you later where I was but right now I gotta get down to foresnics."

" For what! Did you find something?"

" Uh huh, a big somethin', Sug.somethin' that could help end this case." She said softly as she walked down the hallway to the forensics department.

" Wait a minute Marie.don't blow me off like that." He yelled then followed after her.

TAP TAP!

Marie gently knocked upon the door to the lab and waited for a response.

" Come in!"

Marie swung the door open and stepped inside quietly, with a fuming Kurt trailing her.

" I'm sorry this is such late notice an' all Hank but I really need a huge favor."

A man of large muscular stature and blue fur turned to face her. A warm friendly grin crossed his furry face as she stepped over to her.

" Well please, don't keep me in suspense.what do you have for me."

Marie opened her purse and slowly slipped out a cassette tape and handed it to him.

" Umm, well I know this sounds absurd but I was resuced last night by The Ghost and learned a great deal about him. After he left.someone called his telephone and left this message.Ghost is innocent, I know he is and that tape is my evidence. I need a voice analysis on it right away so I can put this case to rest."

Hank nodded and relieved her of the tape then popped it into a cassette player which was connected to a computer near by. He then pressed play and listened to the message as he began to type in commands for the pc.

" Hmm it's scanning now..ah we have a match."

He then clicked the file and turned the screen in Marie and Kurt's direction.

Victor Creed, wanted for extortion, murder, auto theft, theft, organized crime, prostitution, assault, harrment, rape, assasination..

Escaped March 22.

" SHIEST!" Kurt exclaimed.

" And he is walking around the streets a free man! How the hell did that happen!"

" Hmm well it says on his file that he was never convicted on several of these cases and everything else his lawyer managed to bail him out. Accept for his most recent crime."

" So how come only this time?" Marie prodded.

" A man by the name of Remy LeBeau testified against him in court. Apparently Creed's other trials were won because he managed bribe those who were against him but it seems LeBeau would not be bought."

" So that's why he's after him." She uttered softly.

" Vhat did you say?"

" Nothin' Kurt, I said nothin."

" Remy is Ghost isn't he."

" Yeah, he is but we know he's innocent now. You heard that tape and you got a voice track on him."

" Yeah but we may need a bit more evidence to ensure that Remy goes free." Hank interjected.

Marie casually turned to Kurt, giving him a pleading look.

" Vhat do you want?"

" To borrow your powers."

" For?"

" Getting more evidence."

(( Ooh cliff hanger Dun dun dun daaaaaaaaaaaa. I'm sorry if any of you are Creed fan's but I had to make somebody the badguy and I felt Victor could pull it off the best for my story. So please don't kill me! * cowers in fear.* ))
