no sleep until san fran

[Kristoffer Cooper]

As time ticked on it was atleast an hour past that Kris was suppose to be in the office by now, but he usually almost always worked on his on scheduale in other words he done them when he done them, and the guys back at the office knew thats the way he worked. The company had been open for months now and was off to a brilliant start, clients coming in the door by the handfull everday and the cases being closed quicker than that. Which made Kris's job easy he was a laid back party goer and so far there hadnt been any real gritty jobs to be done, so he had, had an easy time at work.

Almost waltzing down the street in his own little world his ipod earphones vibrating in his ear as the music blared out, he smiled to himself, he wasnt the usual business man, he hated wearing the suits and tied, the smart shoes and the breifcases. Generally Kris was found in a pair of tattered jeans and a slim T that showed off his athletic build that hid underneath. His short cropped his was usally gelled into a mess which was the way he liked it, he never thought himself as a prude business man, even though he didnt give off the right image when it came to board meetings or when he was on a case. People took him for a joke which for some reason he took comfort in, he always had a dorky grin on his face which usually won over the ladies simply because of his charasmatic charm.

Pulling his phone out his back pocket as he felt the vibrating buzz against him he raised an eyebrow and smirked looking down as the number of a girl he had met a few nights ago flashed up on the screen, he wasnt a jerk to ladies, infact he took pride in respecting them, but that date had went way off what he had planned and he was a coward and didnt really want to have to tell her that he wasnt interested "ahh poor poor Stella.." he muttered to himself rejecting the call "man she was hot.. what are you doing Kris.." he continued talking to himself tapping his thumb in the screen of his phone and pursed his lips giving a heavy sigh slipping his phone back into his pocket licking his lips he slipped through the busy traffic ignoring the sounds of the drivers beeping there horns at him and sniggered to himself shaking his head "WALKINH HERE.."[/b[ he said taking his time delibratly to piss them off, hopping up onto the curb at the other side of the street.

[Elona Dupree]

Elona had enjoyed herself a well deserved lay in. She'd been working so hard lately on cases that she had barely slept, infact it had gotten so bad that she sometimes couldnt differentiate between real life and the unavoidable naps she'd taken at the office.

Today was her day off and she was going to enjoy every moment of it. She'd planned to stay in bed up until noon but her cat really wasnt allowing this to happen. Repeatedly she scratched at the bed post, jumped all over the bed and roamed aimlessly up and down the window sill until eventually her owner rose from her pit.

Grumbling she sat upright in her bed. Pushing the crisp white sheets back she rubbed a hand through the back of her head, eventually clambering out of the side. Muttering profanities as she made her way to the bedroom door.


"You know one day i'm just going to lock you out and never let you in again" Elona informed in quite a pleasant tone.

Opening the front door she allowed the cat to go out before closing it behind her. Walking a few paces back she stopped and glanced over her shoulder at the door, suddenly realising she didnt even have a cat. Whose cat was that? why the hell was it here?..

Shaking her head she rubbed her face and slowly scuttled off into the bathroom. After getting showered and dressed she moved to the front door again to head out herself.

The weather was particularly nice today. The sun was out and there was a minimal breeze blowing by.

She was dressed in dark blue fitted jeans, a white tank top which was covered over by a waist length cardigan just incase it got chilly. She held her large black bag over her right shoulder and on her feet wore black flat shoes. Elona's hair was pretty long, it stopped just above the waist band on her jeans which rested just under her hip bone. The brunette had naturally wavered hair that moved side to side as she walked a spring in her step.

Elona headed to the town where she planned to do a spot of shopping, of course after getting herself a caffeine fix. Suddenly her pager went off. Stopping she glanced down and unhooked it from her jeans. Deciding not to stop in the middle of the street she walked along and scanned the screen but wasnt viewing her surroundings. Elona walked smack into someone and dropped the pager on the floor.

Grimacing she looked down at her feet where the pager lay between then lifted her head up to see some guy standing there. It had been her error completely of course "Sorry" she grumbled quickly bending down. As she got on her knees she lifted up the pager from the floor before slowly lifting her head.

She looked somewhat horrifed as well she'd certainly chose the wrong time to lift her head since all she could see was the crotch of his jeans. Jumping to her feet she gave a smile and sorta half waved the pager so he knew for sure thats why she'd bent down.

Kris glanced down at her a cheeky look crossing his face as that same little sparkle in his eye appaeared seeing where her face had accidently been a little to close to and chuckled "wow i usually wait until im dating a girl for that type of fun" he winked at the woman and stepped back letting her have her space, he may be a cocky shit but he knew how to treat a lady and respect her.

Kris nodded "umm your alright?" he smiled weakly "you seem a little flustered" he laughed a little, being a detecive he had a habit of thinking into things to much, and looked behind her just checking that no one was bothering her. Smilng sweetly at her he pointed to her pager "not broken i hope?" he rasied an eyebrow then winked slipping his hands into his pockets.

ooc - course its no problem the more the merrier xD

[Matthew Evans]

Matt watches from his position in the alleyway, watches the guy he's trying to get hold of. He's about to step out of the shadows when he sees a girl knock into him. Damn! He shuffles backwards again, the shadows swallowing him back up. He peers out, wondering how on earth he's going to be able to approach the guy now!

He's only been following him since yesterday. He'd come to Sullivan and Cooper for help, but he just couldn't walk those few steps to the door, out in the open like that. It was just too dangerous! So he'd stayed right here in this alley, he'd even slept the night next to the dumpster and he really wasn't liking the way he smelt right now! He'd waited for the next day, when he was fairly certain that same guy would take the same route, passing through this alley - so he could talk to him in total private.

He runs a hand through his unkept hair, hating the feel of its oilyness, wishing he could just get back to his life already! He doesn't deserve this!

He remembers the day his life changed forever. He'd been enjoying a beer at home, relaxed on the couch, watching a baseball game on the tv. His shift at the hospital had ended only a few hours before and he was exhausted! The scream from his mother had sent his heart into his throat and he'd been on his feet instantly, racing to the kitchen - to see the most horrific scene imaginable. His mother, held up by her throat, by... no... A guy with serious eye issues and weird coloured markings on his skin. Way too much strength behind him too, unless he was tripped out on pcp or something...

Matt hadn't even thought about what he was doing. He'd just rushed in, jumped onto the thing's back and locked his arms around its neck. Unfortunately he hadn't seen the other two guys... They'd thrown him down pretty damn quickly, beat him within an inch of his life, but at least they'd left his mother alone. She'd slumped to the tiles of the kitchen floor, alive but unconscious.

He'd thought that'd be the end of it. That the guys would kill him and that was it. But it wasn't. They'd talked together in some kind of weird language and then one of them had actually picked him up and slung him over his shoulder. The next thing that happened had confused him even more. One of the other guys had pulled out a cellphone and spoken into it. His words had caused goosebumps to break out over Matt's skin!

"We've got him. We're bringing him in."

This was all for him?! Why?! His fear had evaporated within a split second. He'd looked over to his mother on the floor, her right eye swelling quite rapidly where they'd obviously punched her damn hard! And that was when he lost it. His temper exploded from him in flashes of white and blue, electricity suddenly devastating the entire room, killing all of the guys instantly and only narrowly missing his mother still on the floor.

He'd dropped down to his feet with a grunt, his fear returning as he looked down at his hands, seeing the lightning flashes over his skin, feeling their sting and pull. What the hell was wrong with him?! He'd tried to reach for his mother, but the electricity sparking from his hands now prevented him from getting too close at all! He couldn't help her... without killing her anyway.

So he ran. He ran as fast as he could, screaming out for help on his way, screaming down the entire street. He'd heard the sirens before he'd got too far away...

Once again, he'd thought that was it. But, as it turns out, it was only the beginning...

So now he's standing here, dirt caked over his skin, looking like a real homeless person scrambling around in scraps, trying desperately to get his life back! Maybe Sullivan and Cooper PI could help him. God, he hopes so! He watches as the girl talks to the guy, trying to work up the courage to step out of the shadows once again...

OOC: Kris gave me permission to join. Hope that's ok?

[Kristoffer Cooper]

ooc - there ya go guys i posted =] sorry i been MIA but im back haha

[Elona Dupree]

[ooc: thats fine = ) sorry i haven't been on guys, i sort of going through a really tough time at home ]

"wow i usually wait until im dating a girl for that type of fun"

Elona looked up at the man as he spoke down at her. Sitfling a laugh she shook her head slightly. She wasnt expected such a come back, though vulgar as it may have been she couldn't help but see the amusing side to it. It had been her bad after all.

"umm your alright?..you seem a little flustered"

With a small smile she slowly got to her feet "It's that obvious, hm?" asked Elona as she tilted her head some what in question. She was on edge lately. All work and no play, it really showed through. It was the simple fact she had no 'her' time. It was all work, work, work lately and not just in this city.

"not broken i hope?"

Holding the pager out in her hand she glanced down. It wasnt broken. A little scuffed maybe, but nothing major. With a laugh she lifted her eyes to him "You're joking right? these babie's are indestructable.." Elona joked with a grin.

Slowly placing it into her back pocket she looked at Kris "Sorry about the. Face, crotch..thing. That was pretty embarassing.." she aplogised going an ever so light shade of pink.

The dark haired woman extended a friendly hand out to him "I'm Elona.." she introduced herself with a warm smile.
