Author's Note: Watching Rob Zombie movies now. Yay yay yay yay yay. No wonder I'm such a twisted person.

They say Taylor was a good girl
never one to be late
complain express ideas in her brain
Working on the night shift
passin out the tickets
you're gonna have to pay her
if you want to park here.
Well mommy's little dancer's
quite a little secret
working on the streets now
never gonna keep it.
It's quite an imposition
And now she's only wishin'
That she would have listened
To the words they said.
Poor Taylor.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Taylor- Jack Johnston.

Max and Ashley walked over the walkway and over to the flat where Jason King lived.
"I thought your theory was about money problems?" Ashley said, as she stifled a yawn. Still sour that she had now been awake for seven hours with no breakfast.

Max gave a shrug and smiled "I re-evaluated. Glad I did though. Here" He stood in front of the door which read '402' in brown numbers. He knocked on the door twice and stood back, hoping that whoever was inside didn't put up too much of a fight.
The door opened to reveal an overly large man with black matted hair and smelt a little bad "What?" He said in a gruff voice.

Ashley and Max shared a knowing look before flashing their warrant cards "Jason King?" They got a short nod "Carter, Cooper. Can we come in?" Max stated, placing his card back into his pocket.
Jason observed Ashley for a moment before gingerly letting them in.

"'As one of those slags on the estate said sumfen' about me?" Jason jumped to conclusions as soon as the door was closed behind them "Because they were askin' for it. Flashen those bits around everywhere" He said, going over to a worn leather chair and sitting down.

Ashley tried to hide the disgust on her face as Max decided to take the lead; knowing that Ashley would most likely loose her temper with someone like him "The assault on your mother…"
Jason's head shot up "what? 'as she said sumfen?" He bit as his hands gripped the arm of the chair.

Ashley bit her bottom lip "Why? Should she have?" She asked, crossing her arms over her chest.
Jason gave her a disgusted look "Women should be seen, not heard" He snapped at her.

Ashley was about to retort, but was cut off by Max asking another question "We were just asking where you were on the day of the attack"
Jason nodded to the window behind him "Down at the pub"

"Anyone clarify that?" Ashley asked, tapping her fingers on her arm.
The man in the chair stood up and walked over to Ashley; he was at least a foot higher then she was, and had at least an extra twenty kilos on her. He looked her up and down and licked his lips "I know what women like you are good for" He hissed at her.

Max stepped between them and got right into his face "You come near my colleague again, I'll arrest you; you make anymore suggestive comments towards my colleague…." He let the threat linger in the air for a moment before Jason took the hint and decided to slaunder back to his chair.

"Besides. Mum don't wanna press charges anyway. So you're wasting your time" He called out as he turned his back to the two police officers.

"Thanks serge" Ashley mumbled as soon as they walked back outside into the blistering cold.
Max looked over at Ashley "He shouldn't have said what he did. So what do you think?" He asked as they walked down the stairs and into the street where the car was parked.

"Besides that he's a class A creep and I should totally go back there and kick his ass? He's almost as bad as his mum. Hiding something" Ashley placed her hands in her pockets and waited for Max to open the car door.
Max slid into the driver's seat and waited for Ashley to climb in "I think we should go have another chat to his mother. See if she'll change her mind if we tell her that we know about Jason"

Ashley's stomach gave a grumble as Max started the car "Can we get food first?" She complained as she rubbed her stomach and closed her eyes.
"I'll buy you the biggest breakfast as soon as we get back to the station" Max bargained as he drove into the direction of where Alyssa lived.

"You're so on" Ashley said they stopped at the traffic lights. Max rested his arm on the window sill as he let out a sigh "How are we going to get Alyssa to press charges?"
Ashley closed her eyes for a moment before opening them "I think I may have a way"

Upon noticing that she had finished talking, Max looked at her "Care to elaborate?" he pushed his foot down on the accelerator as the light turned green.
Ashley shook her head "Not really"

Max noticed how the car had gotten that little more tense and decided to drop it. He turned the car into the street where Alyssa lived and parked on the side of the road "Right. Let's do this" He said, climbing out of the car and slamming the door behind him.
Ashley let out a shaky breath and followed suit; following her sergeant up to the house.

Ashley knocked on the door and waited for it to be opened "Here goes nothing" She whispered as the door opened to reveal a very pale Alyssa.
"Miss Monroe. You remember us from the hospital? DS Carter and DC Cooper" Max started as Alyssa nodded and leaned against the frame.
Alyssa sighed and said "You know don't you?" She alleged.

Ashley nodded "Can we come in please?" She asked.

Alyssa thought about this for a moment before nodded and letting the two officers in "Would you like a cup of tea or something?" She asked as she led the two into an immaculately neat sitting room.
The two police officers shook their head and sat on the cream coloured couch; Alyssa sat on one of the arm chairs and bit her thumb nail nervously.

"Miss Monroe…" Ashley began before Alyssa interrupted her; "Please, call me Alyssa" She smiled.
Ashley tried again "Alyssa. We have our theories about what happened. But, we need to hear it from you" She stated.

Alyssa closed her eyes "I thought I said I didn't want to press charges" She said politely.
Max nodded "You did. But what we're more concerned with is what if your son does it again to someone else? Someone who's not so tolerable?" He asked, perching on the edge of the couch.

"Mr. Reynolds told you didn't he? About the allegations" Alyssa assumed as she played with the silver necklace "You know all about us"
Ashley sighed and nodded "Yeah. Listen, Alyssa. If you don't want to press charges against your son then just tell us and we'll leave you alone; but if there is any chance that you will even consider it. Then please tell us. Because what if he does it again to someone?"

Alyssa looked down at the floor and looked back up, nodding slightly "Okay" She said in a barely audible whisper.
