Two Sides of the Same Coin

Chapter Two: A Start

The Weekend

  Nelivia woke up, frantically sweating >It was just a dream... it... was just a dream..< Nelivia had constantly reminded herself every time she had that dream. Even if it happened years ago, she couldn't shake that thought of those poor children. When she had calmed herself down, she got out of her bed and got herself ready to teach Rośe and Ryo about being a detective. When she arrived at the kitchen, Eliward was already there, waiting for her wife. "Eh? You aren't going to work?" Nelivia asked, wondering what Eliward was doing, still at home. "My boss told me I could have a day off." Eliward explained, taking a sip of coffee. "I see, well, I'll be heading out now. I have to help out with the cases!" Nelivia spoke cheerfully with a smile on her face. "Not until you atleast have breakfast you aren't." Eliward stopped Nelivia before she went out the door. Nelivlia was seated at the table and Eliward gave Nelivia her breakfast to which Nelivia ate before leaving. >As long as we're together, i'll forever take care of you..< A smile formed on Eliwards face when she had seen Nelivia leave the house.

Gale Detective Agency

  Nelivia opened up the door to her group's room, awaiting her were Rośe and Ryo. "Sorry for being late!" Nelivia exclaimed, apologizing for her tardiness, "It's alright, you don't have to apologize!" Rośe replied back, not wanting Nelivia to feel bad. "Well, what do you guys want to do first? It's both of your first days here after all." Nelivia asked, wondering what her pupils would want. "Well, I was wondering if we could get some more insight on the cases we would be doing." Ryo spoke out, "That's a good idea Ryo!" Rośe agreed with a smile on her face. "Alright, I'll give you two some more insight on some of the cases we'll be covering." Nelivia replied, walking over to a cabinet and bringing out a couple of folders consisting of multiple cases. She opened up one folder and she picked up the documents, putting them in a neat pile. "Let's start... with this one." Nelivia picked up a sheet of paper as she laid it out in front of Ryo and Rośe on the table.

Document File

Case: U-Yung Company Provision

Date Filed: 04-17-XXXX

Details: The U-Yung company is found suspicious to be providing the X-Factor Organization forbidden technology and information. Suspicion was found in the year XXXX when the founder of U-Yung Company [Redacted] was found talking to members of X-Factor.

Case Assigned To: Nelivia Pweefield Bethwell

  "The U-Yung company?" Rośe was quite confused about this document. "There's little information... Who filed the case?" Ryo asked, examining the document. "Although filed from a citizen, they have asked to keep their name anonymous." Nelivia replied, remembering who filed it. "I see.." Ryo looked back down at the document. "Isn't the U-Yung company famous for the technology they make?" Rośe asked, making sure her memory was correct. "They are, which pretty much makes this case much more important." Nelivia answered her question. "This case was filed around a month ago, how come it wasn't dealt with already?" Ryo asked, wondering why it wasn't dealt with already. "Well the thing is, the U-Yung family is constantly moving around, so it's hard getting evidence for this." Nelivia explained to Ryo. "I see..." Ryo put his hand on his chin, he seemed to be in deep thought.

   "Of course they would..." Rośe mumbled under her breath, her tone was... angry? Nelivia looked over at the two, >Well, this is some first day for them...< Nelivia thought to herself, as she observed their emotions, Rośe had a slightly angry expression while Ryo's was harder to read since it stayed expressionless but she could tell he was thinking of something, something that would be hard for others to understand, but something those that share the same trauma could.
