Phoenix's Apartment, 8:40 PM

Nick's POV

Nick: Come on Phoenix! Hurry up, we'll be late!

Phoenix rushed out of his apartment and into the car.

Phoenix: Sorry, I lost my badge and had to find it, plus I had to get myself ready. How do I look?

Judy: You look fine. Mia just wants to see us.

Nick: Yeah man, don't worry too much.

Judy: Says the person that's excited about this case.

Nick: Like you were better?

She just rolled her eyes and giggled. We set off for the Fey and Co. Law office.

Fey and Co. Law Office, 9:05 PM

Nick: We're a bit late, stupid traffic!

Judy: Oh well, let's head in. I'm sure the Chief will understand.

Phoenix: Chief, sorry we're late; Chief?

Judy: Strange. Are you sure she said 9:00 Nick?

Nick: She called me and said 9:00. She also said her sister would be here, maybe she in her office waiting.

I opened up the door, then that's when it happened.

Nick: Whoa!

Judy: Oh dear, what happened?

Nick: Wait, do you smell something?

Nick, Judy and Phoenix: BLOOD!

?: *sob* Sis!

I turned and saw a little girl, I looked and I just stopped on what'd I saw.

Phoenix: Chief… Chief… Chief!

Judy (Whisper): Oh my God!

I looked at the girl and I spoke to her softly.

Nick: Excuse me, are you Mia's sister?

The next I knew, she fell into my arms.

Judy: Who is that Nick?

Nick: I think it might be her sister. Wright, help me move this girl to the couch please. Judy can you stay here and keep an eye on Mia?

She nodded as Phoenix and I placed the girl on the sofa. I turned and saw Phoenix, still in shock on what happened.

Nick: I'm sorry Phoenix. If I'd come and picked you up early, none of this would happen.

Phoenix: Don't beat yourself up Nick. It's not your fault. Let's see if we can find something that can tell us what happened.

Judy's POV

I looked carefully around Mia's body, she was still breathing a bit and she was still warm, but she soon began to fade, then she was out.

Nick: How is she?

Judy: She's gone.

I never saw Nick looking this sad before, he looked at Mia. I came up and touched his arm. He looked at me and put his arms around me.

Phoenix: Hey guys, look.

Judy: The clock.

Nick: The one Larry made.

Phoenix: It's got blood on it too.

Nick: Ouch!

Judy: You okay Nick!?

Nick: Yeah, accidently touched some broken glass.

Judy: Let me see. Phoenix, you know where the first aid is?

Phoenix: I think it should be on the shelf over there.

Phoenix's POV

I looked around some more then I saw something fell out of Mia's right hand.

Phoenix: Hey guys I found a piece of paper!

Nick: What's it say?

Phoenix: There's something written in blood. "Maya."

Nick: Maya? Wait, could that girl on the sofa be Maya?

Phoenix (Thinking): Could be. Maybe I should show her the receipt, never thought there'd be a better use for evidence outside the courtroom!

Judy: Well in any case I think we found enough evidence, maybe we should show them to Chief Bogo. He could help us out.

Nick: Good idea. I'll call him. Hmm…

Phoenix: Something wrong Nick?

Nick: The receiver is missing!

Phoenix: What?!

Judy: He's right! A few of the screws are missing. Someone must have been spying.

?: Police!? Please, come quick!

Nick: The window!

We all turned to the window. A woman with pink hair stared at us from another building, across from the office. She was also holding a phone in her hand!

Phoenix: Uh oh, I think it's time we scram!

Nick: Good idea!
