Here is the next chap. Thank to all of you.

The First Meeting

Olivia reached her car, got in and drove towards her law office. She believed Jack would kick her butt again for coming back, but she couldn't turn around anymore. Like always she had left Lisa standing around somewhere. If it was here in New York or if it had been down in Los Angles, in her vacation, when Jack had called her and had told her there was a new case for her. She was jumping when he was calling and she didn't knew if it was because of the work or because of him. Lisa had always pointed it out like it was because of him. That Olivia would do everything do make him smile and even if she had to work night and day, but she always had refused that thought. She was one of the best lawyers around New York and she had earned that for herself not because she had worked so hard to make him believe in her or to make him smile, about her.

"Hey!"

Suddenly a car in front of her had stopped, so she stood on the break. There were just inches between the cars, when hers finally stopped.

Minutes later she reached the law office and got out of the car. She made her way though the lobby and towards the elevator. When she reached the 15th floor, everything was as crowded and noisy as before. People were running around, calls were made and some of the people she passed, while making her way towards Jack's office in the back, greeted her. Little later she reached the office, not without getting involved into some conversation. She slightly knocked on the door, but when he didn't answered she just got in. Jack was studying some files and talked to somebody on his cell phone at the same time. He was so into the the conversation, that he didn't even noticed her. Olivia leaned back against the wall and waited for him to end the call.

When he finally had ended the call he didn't looked that happy.

"Hey there!"

Jack looked up from the files, his hands resting on his head.

"Liv!"

She smiled and went up to his desk and sat down in one of the chairs.

"What's up and don't say nothing because I can see that there s something that bothers you."

He just slightly smiled hack and shook his head. His hands wandered down over his face and reached for the files. While he handed them to her, he leaned back in the chair.

"Dr. Bishop just called. They want their lawyer at their office in an hour. Olivia, for once I'm so damn glad that you showed up, even though I kicked you out, just a few hours before."

Olivia he her glace on the files. She shortly studied them. This might be one of the most difficult cases she ever had. Experimenting with children. It wasn't that easy to get them out of that one, but trying was everything.

"So they really did it? Experimenting on children? How sick are these two scientist? I mean, experimenting on humans is sick, but on children."

"Maybe they did, maybe they didn't you'll find out soon, I guess. They want you there at 12 so that leaves you 45 min and you'll need a little to get though the traffic."

She nodded and got up.

"Bye than and thanks."

He shook his head and smiled.

"There is nothing you need me to thank for and you know that."

She smiled back at him and left his office heading towards the elevator.

Thirty minutes later she finally reached Massive Dynamic. The huge skyscraper was shining in the bright daylight. She had the files still in her hands while she was walking though the lobby of the building. The woman at the front desk was already awaiting her.

"Olivia Dunham?"

She nodded.

"Dr. Bishop and Dr. Bell are awaiting you at Dr. Bell's office. You take the office to the 20th floor and when you get out, you just walk straight down the hallway. It's the door at the end of the first hallway."

"Okay, thank you."

While she walked over to the elevator, she again was studying the files. She couldn't believe some of the strange things that where written about the two. Totally into her thoughts she didn't cared about what was going on around her. One moment she was walking straight down the hallway and the next one she hit something solid in fornt of her.

"Sorry."

She looked up and saw into the blue eyes of a man. His brown hair was short but it looked great with him. And his face, his face was just adorable.

"No problem."

He smiled at her and held out his hand. She took it and smiled back.

"Olivia Dunham."

"Peter Bishop. Are you the lawyer for my father and ?"

She nodded. Peter turned around and made a sign that she should follow him, so she did as he told her. They entered a light flooded room with great windows and a gorgeous view over the New York skyline.

They went up to meet the two men already sitting behind a table. She introduced herself and sat down next to Peter, in front of Dr. Bell and Dr. Bishop.

"So, first of all the most important question. Is the allegation against you two, that you where experimenting on children true?"

Both of them where quite for a short while but than doctor Bell started to talk.

"Sadly but ture. I invented the drug and we needed children for the experiments. Dr. Bishop overhere was helping me, but he didn't found it that good that we needed children for the experiments. He was the one that wanted me to stop researchs on the drug."

"Okay, well that makes everything a whole lot more difficult."

"We know that it's a worse case and we know that there is no chance of us getting out of this without any damage, but I want you to do everything to get Dr. Bishop out of this as good as you can. He never wanted any of this to happen. It's my fault so I'll get the right penalty."

"I'll do my best but I need all informations on the drug. Maybe you know some of the names of the children you experimented on? That might help us a lot and it sayed in the files that the drug never had any effect on the children. If that's ture that would be another thing that would help you getting out of the whole thing more easy."

"Well, it's true that there never were any children on which the drug showed any effect except one."

Olivia had an asking look on her face. Dr. Bishop didn't seemed to be happy about everything that was happning and Peter next to her wasn't that thrilled either.

"The only person that responded to cortexiphan was him. The only one was Peter."
