Chapter Two

"Danna?" The annoying voice caused my eyebrows to furrow. It was too early to have a bad dream. "Danna!"

"Go away brat." Was the growled reply.

"Detective Akasuna get off your lazy ass and get a move on, un!" Deidera's annoyed shout was enough for me to open my eyes to glare at him.

"I am awake brat. What is your problem now?" Deidera's triumphant glare was enough to make my annoyance grow.

"We got a body. And it looks like two, yeah." An annoyed grunt made me get up with my coat.

"Then get moving brat. I don't want to keep the ME's waiting." A snort.

"You're the one keeping us here, yeah." A roll of my eyes and we were leaving the Homicide Department.

Arriving at the crime scene in the Konoha forest-like park made Deidera whistle. I grunted seeing the body in a pool of blood.

"Looks peaceful." Deidera said as he looked around the crime scene. I grunted in acknowledgment. "You okay Sakura?" I flicked my eyes to see her ashen skin color and the wide eyes.

"You know her?" I asked. Sakura blinked before looking away.

"No, she just, looks like someone I know." I grunted kneeling down to look at the body. A bullet in the head, a scrape too perfect to be rocks or branches on her neck, and more blood on her left side that was probably due to another wound. Her face was pale and while her blue eyes were glassy she seemed to be smiling.

"Jane Doe was killed sometime around ten p.m. She was found by a young woman, name Mira Honoka, at ten thirty." The ME, Sakura Haruno was kneeling on the other side of the body looking chic as always, well except for the gray complexion. "She has a bullet wound in her right side and from gunshot residue, it wasn't long distance."

"Any I.D. on her?" I asked.

"No but we do have an I.D. on the other man. Her blood trail led us to a car parked half a mile east of our current position." Sakura seemed to gulp when she looked at the woman. "The bullet wound in the side of her neck nicked her carotid artery and the other bullet in her head was what killed her. She has scratches but that's probably from falling on her way here."

"Where's the car, yeah?"

"With the other body."

"Other body?" I asked. Sakura cleared her throat.

"He has his I.D. And one of the cops has it but he was killed with a bullet to the throat with another in his torso. He also had multiple perimortem bruises so Jane Doe put up a fight."

"She was in the car?" I asked looking at Jane Doe. "If the man was in the car, then who killed her?"

"No clue. CSU is looking around." I looked at the walking CSU guys before giving Deidera a look.

"I'll help them. You go look at Mr. John Doe, yeah." I nodded before looking at Sakura.

"Any other relevant information, un?" Deidera asked. Sakura shook her head.

"Detective." A cop, Suigetsu, if I remembered correctly called to me when I emerged from the forest.

"That John Doe?" I asked indicating the body in the dark green Corolla.

"Yep. Mr. Jonathan Moses is apparently an average man in his late thirties with no urgent medical injuries or history relevant to this case. He's a small time travel agent with bad luck in the gambling department. No wife or children and cops are looking to see if he has any family." I looked in at Mr. Moses' dead body looking for any signs of why a man such as he was with a woman and what had triggered this attack.

"Are we sure this isn't a rape case or kidnapping case gone wrong?" I got up and walked to the passenger side of the car.

"Not sure about the rape case since Sakura will have to check that herself, but as for kidnapping, no. No witness' but CSU says there's no sign of a struggle and no indicating injuries on Jane Doe. Although, we did have multiple calls come from the Konoha Elite housing last night when the sound of gunshots was heard in one part of their neighborhood."

"Anything that connects Jane Doe or Mr. Moses to that?" I asked.

"No but one witness statement says her kid saw a car high-tailing it out of there. Security cameras have been confiscated and are being sent to your desk."

"I'm going to need a list of the houses that were in a mile of the vicinity you say the car was leaving."

"Yes sir." Suigetsu waved lazily.

"Any thing in the truck?" I asked pointing.

"Nothing but a tire and changing a tire tools. Here's his wallet though." I glared at Suigetsu. "What? I didn't take it this time." I grabbed the wallet not trusting him a bit. I.D., driver's license, membership cards to stores, betting slips, and a number on a card.

"If you find anything else tell me." I ordered.

"Yes captain." The little shit was a more pain in the ass that Deidera was. I pulled out my phone and dialed the number. It rang once before clicking.

'I'm sorry but the number you have reached is no longer in service. Thank you.'

GM NASAI: Whoo, I told you it was taking off. And I'm surprised I actually put out two chapters in one day, within the same hour. I haven't done that in a long while. There must be something in my water. I know it's short but I wanted to get to the detectives. Can you blame me?
