4. chapter: Sleeping beauty.
I totally forgot to thank the dictionary for it's help, though it probably
doesn't care.
And dear Meera thank you for your pointing outs, I'll sure try to make my
mistakes right (I had no idea. The names were translated in other way in
Iceland, I just guessed their real names). Thank you.
And to anonymous 327 I'm very sorry but it's part of it to make Joe like
that, besides he's 21 in the story not 17.
And the same to cutiepie, though she won't read this. And this about CollIG
he didn't suspect Joe, he was only trying to get some clues from him,
that's all...Wait, thank you for the review, I understand that you may not
be use to something like that..I hope I didn't offend someone else terribly
much like cutiepie.

CollIG and Fenton were quick to react. They pulled Frank and Joe back in
and took up their pistols, just in case.
There were many police officers out there in danger. They tried to take cover behind the police's cars. But the one who was shooting was in a small helicopter so there was no way out, and the helicopter was bullet proof and the balls from the police's gun leaked off. But still he or her was a terrible gunner. Or he, or her, wasn't trying to kill anyone because the balls didn't hit anybody. Until one man fell. Blood streamed from his chest.
After a while the gunfire stopped. Everything was quiet. The helicopter flew away. Everybody ran to the man who was shot.
'Harper, James? Can you hear me?!' ColliIG asked terrified. He put his finger on James's neck. No heartbeat.
Everybody was upset. Frank and Joe leaned against the wall of the building.
An ambulance came and moved James's Harper body away.
'Did anyone see what kind of helicopter this was?' Joe suddenly asked out of nowhere.
'No, Joe. That's not exactly what we were thinking about' Fenton said and looked at CollIG. He was very sad. James Harper had been a relative to him.
'I wonder what was the point of that' Frank said.
'Who knows?' his father answered.
'The one who did it' Joe suggested.
'How clever Joe, I never would've thought of that' Frank said with a cold voice.
-'Well, I didn't think so.'
-'Guys, this is not the right time to fight' Fenton cut in.
The brothers looked each other in the eyes.
'Well, we should get going' Ezra CollIG(ok, I think everyone get my point of this now) said and blinked his eyes to keep the tears away. -------------------------------------------------------------
A white table on wheels was placed in the middle of the room. A beautiful girl laid on it, naked. Her body was very pale. Her blue eyes were staring at nothing. This was the body of Sarah Cline. Five men stood in a circle around the table. They were: Ezra Collig, Fenton, Frank and Joe Hardy, and dr. Miller.
Everybody was very serious looking, Except Joe who felt a little strange looking at the naked, dead girl in front of him. After all Joe was Joe. But he knew this girl, though he didn't tell anyone about it.
He just stood there silent and pretended to be listening to the doctor.
'She wasn't murdered on the toilet. She has been moved from some place to the toilet. She was not raped, thank God, and her muscles show that she tried to resist but the murderer was stronger. She also has blood under her fingernail and it isn't hers. I guess it was a man, she was in a good shape' dr. Miller explained.
'How do we connect this to the attack this morning?' Frank asked.
'I have no idea' Fenton answered. He noticed that Joe looked at the body.
'Do you know her, son?' he asked.
Joe looked up. He shook his head.
'No, I don't.'
Frank watched him closely, knowing he was lying but said nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------
On the way out of the mortuary Frank whispered to his father:
'Dad, Joe was lying. He knows.knew.the girl.'
-'Yes, Frank I know. Maybe you didn't noticed it but he's my son and I know him too' Fenton answered.
-'Why didn't you say anything?'
-'He didn't want me to.'
-'So?'
Fenton stopped. 'So? You wouldn't have wanted me to either. He probably thinks that the police would bother him, stop worrying about it.'
Frank stared after his father. He felt someone standing behind him.
Joe watched his brother and father whisper and he was pretty sure what they were whispering about.
Two men came in with a barrow between them. There was a white cover on the barrow.
The brothers moved away from the doors.
BEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!
Fenton Hardy pushed the hooter.
'Guys, are you coming?'
Frank and Joe went into the car and Frank drove his father and Joe home.
That was a long day. -------------------------------------------------------------- Is this ok? If someone doesn't understand that I said that the story isn't suitable for kids under 12 then I'll explain. I was working on a school project about children and violence in TV and the affection it has on them, I know these are only words but still.and it's also because of some scenes, but I doubt that someone under 12 read this, however, review please. Ragna, ICE(land).
