Edward's pov
I watched as Bella walked back toward my desk. I guess Mr. Caple told her to site here. SCORE!
"As you can probably see class we have a new student today Bella Swan. You might have heard of her brother Emmett but don't hold that against her. Okay today we will be doing a lab. I will be giving each group and item and you will have to try to find something to connect it to a person place or thing. Remember there may be nothing on it."
He handed two boxes to the 2 students in the first desk and they started handing out kits to each person. "Girls for those of you who have long hair please pull it back we don't want you finding a hair that's your" he said as he started handing out the boxes with our items in it.
I saw her look in her bag and have a triumphant face on when she pulled out a hair tie she pulled her hair into a loose ponytail at her shoulders. "Okay everyone open your kits and put on your gloves. When you get your boxes on top of your items should be a mat, lay that out on your desk and lay your item on top." I put mine on and looked over and noticed Bella, already had hers on, and was looking through her case.

After I got my gloves on I started looking through my kit to see what I had. Let's see tweezers, evidence bags, fingerprint power, a collector for said fingerprints, magnifying glass, florescent light, and goggles. Wow they had us really set up here.
Mr. Caple put a box on our desk and I looked up at Edward. "you can open the box and put out the mat if you want."
"Okay what ever you say." He opened the box and laid out the mat under it lay a walkie-talkie. I took that out and put it on the mat. Edward took out his magnifying glass and started looking to see if there were any fibers
I didn't think there would be. I started to take out my fingerprint powder and lifter. Edward looked up shaking his head. "May I?" he made a hand gesture that said go right ahead. I moved my chair in so I could get at a better angle and took the brush dipped it in the powder and started lightly brushing it across the surface of the plastic. Nothing was showing up. "I guess we got one of the duds." He said
Not looking up I commented back to Edward, "This person must have wiped it down. But I don't think they wiped down the battery." I opened the back of the walkie-talkie and took out the battery pack.
After that I did the same thing I did to the outside of the walkie and came up with a perfect thumb print. "Haza!!" I pealed open the lifter and placed the clear sticky side on the battery and smoothed it out. One I was sure I had the print I pealed it off and folded it back up and showed Edward the lifted print with a smirk.
He stared at me incredulously. "I wouldn't have thought to do that and I've been in the class before today." I smiled and started to put my things back in my kit. I looked around and noticed no one else looked done, I guess we had an easy item.

I gaped at her. I wouldn't have been able to get that let alone so fast well maybe but a human defiantly not. She hasn't even been in the class to learn this stuff. And she was really smart in English today too. Damn it all I wish I knew what she was thinking. Listening to her thought process would be amazing. I could probably even learn something from it.
