This is the same story so plot changes but I felt like I could do better on some of the chapters. Make them longer, better descriptions, make them more 'American'. I know I can do better. It is the first 5 chapters probably which I will change.
Disclaimer: I dont own iCarly, i only own the plot.
Enjoy...
The car skidded to a stop next to the crime scene. I could hear several other tyre screeches signalling arrival of the rest of my team.
I jumped out of the car and could immediately hear the deafening noise of planes taking off. I slammed the door and ran through the glass double doors which entered into the reception of the airport.
I quickly scanned the area for any sign of a dead body. It seemed quite quiet for a Miami airport, but then I saw a hand, crimson blood slowly dripping from the fingertips.
The body was in the hall way of the toilets so there were numerous holiday makers and business men walking past with horrified faces, some so mortified that they can't move. Just standing there, mouth agape and some crying.
I sprinted towards the body and checked to see whether they were alive, it was highly doubtful, but there was still a chance.
I crouched down as I checked their pulse by placing my index finger on their blood covered wrist. Nothing. I dropped the arm and covered my head with my arms trying not to get blood on myself. There are always highs and lows of every job this was definitely a low of mine seeing the dead person lye before you, knowing that if you had got there minutes earlier you could have prevented an innocent death.
I shook off the feeling of guilt which I have learnt to do quickly from experience. I am not cold blooded because I can look at a dead body and not cry. I do what I do because if you blame yourself for something you think you could have prevented, you will get nowhere. I have learnt from experience, emotions make you weak.
As soon as we were sure that the body was dead, we zoned off the area with the special yellow CSI crime scene tape.
I turned quickly to face the body. That was when I first looked at them properly. It was a male, early 20's and about 6".
It looked like he had been hit on the head with something as his hair was covered in blood so much so that you were unable to even tell his hair colour. The blood was still streaming down his face so it is fair to say that the murder is relatively recent. He was on his side leaning on his arm so I guess that was how he got blood on his hands.
They lifted the body onto a gurney and zipped the white case up covering the body from head to toe. They whisked the body back to the lab for an autopsy, while my team and I looked for evidence. We looked everywhere: where he was killed; toilets; around where he was killed; all cafes within a 20 meter radius; even the ceiling. Four hours in and nothing.
I was getting impatient; we were getting nowhere. I told my team I was heading back, so I went back to the lab in HQ to find out who this person was and what had happened to him.
I got in my 4x4 and started the ignition. I hear the engine of the car roar to life, and the car rumble as put the car in drive.

I entered the building through the slick one-way glass rotating doors and speed walked to the lab. I nearly walked into numerous people on the way and actually walked into about five people I didn't apologise or even register that I even hit them (they should have moved out of the way for me). When I got to the door there was a note
'The lab is in use,
please knock and
wait to be assisted'
I huffed, banged my hand on the door and sat in the nearby chairs, legs crossed and bobbing up and down in anticipation for the results
After waiting for what seemed like ages there was still no improvement. So I went up to the door and knocked again much louder. But still no response, so I impatiently slammed open the door to see a quivering man beside the dead body.
"why didn't you answer the door?" I asked hands on my hips
"well i-" he started
"I don't care"
I looked at his name tag; it said "Kevin- medical examiner".
The strong smell of anti-bacterial spray and disinfectant reached my nose; it took me a while to readjust to the smell. I used to know the smell so well; it used to belong to a particular nub. The smell I had become accustomed to before I had left.
I gathered myself, and went around the examination table and was able to look at the body without the blood, it looked was worse than before.
They had washed the blood out of his hair and it turned out he had chocolate brown hair, similar to a certain dork, but longer.
"He has bruising along his collar bone and on his cheek, a severe black eye" Calvin started to explain what had happened to this man. He said it while pointing to the black parts along his jaw and eye.
"and some front teeth missing, which suggests he had a fight with someone before the death" Kieran explained, I wanted to say something but didn't know what, so I just settled on nodding my head.
He held back the man's hair and showed me a dint in the side of the man's skull near the temple, he explained how it looks like he was hit with a sharp object "... and that cause the horrific bleeding and I think cause the death" Kyle concluded, looking at me for confirmation. I don't know why, he is the expert.
I slightly nodded, got up and accidentally knocked the table which the man was on, causing his right arm to fall of the table and dangle off the side.
"that wasn't my fault" I muttered not bothering to lay the arm back onto the table. I was about to wall out the door, when I turned to thank Karl (I know very un-Sam but I've changed… a bit) when I saw something on the dead man's arm. I turned rushed up to him and grabbed the arm.
"What's this?" I exclaimed thrusting the arm in his face
"I-I don't know… I-I only l-looked a-at the head..." He stuttered rubbing the back of his neck nervously
"Idiot" I mumbled
I stroked the dead man's right arm feeling the bumps of scars under my fingertips. Down his right arm were hundreds of scars, horizontal along the width.
I raced round the other side of the body and lifted his arm. The scars were on this arm as well, but on this side there were words.
Words like forgive, sorry, love
One stood out the most...
