Case File 10: Kidnapped!! Part 1

Hey there everyone~ I got the next episode right here. I hope you like it....

In the city, mammals were bound to roam around the streets, having a good time as the night had only begun. The clubs, couple of drinks, and a few good friends were some of the best things to have fun. One place in particular, was very lively tonight. It was only 9 p.m., and already you could hear the loud voices booming out the windows. The place may escape you, since its no where near the city's common clubs. No, this was a restaurant called 'The Lucky Clover.' You could find it in the middle of a quiet part of town, passed the baker shop, at intersections of Antlers Boulevard (Blvd.) and Central Street. It was a local place, mostly inhabitant with rowdy old mammals with accents mixed with Irish, British, and other sorts. They would sing and dance, drink to the fullest and laugh the night away. It was a daily routine that the locals are used to, and boy was the place lively tonight even though it rained. Little did they know, someone was coming right up the doors. The old gentle-mammals were too busy conversing when the stranger came in. Once they heard the sound of boots clamping on the floor, they all turned to see. The music stopped playing, and all eyes were at the front door. The figure had a dark coat with a hoodie over their head, no visible trace of their face except for the mouth. They were carrying a rectangular container in their hands. The mammals stared at the figure, some having their cigarette in their mouths, holding their drinks, or sitting at the bar. It was quiet for a while, until the bartender cleared his throat. He was a large black bear with a light brown muzzle and neckline, though his fur was graying out. He was wearing a kitchen apron over his plaque shirt. He put both paws on the bar counter as he glared at the figure. The other looked back and forth until he would speak. However, the bear first responded with a smirk.

"You know how late it is," he had an Irish accent, "kids should be in bed." The figure smiled and pulled the hood down.

"And you should be in a retirement home," Sapphire smirked back. Everyone laughed as they greeted her, and the musicians continuing their songs. Sapphire made her way to an empty seat at the bar and set the container down. The black bear chuckled as he hugged her over the counter.

"Evening miss Lovell."

"Hello Mr. McDavis. How are you?" She took off her coat and set it on the counter.

"Good, good. The place here is lively as ever."

"Well, it is your restaurant," she smiled as she sat down, "and I couldn't help but drop by and say hi to everyone." She looked back at all the mammals; most of them were predators but occasionally some preys.

"Ah, well, we appreciate you comin' over," he grinned, "we all enjoy your company. Say.... what do ya got here, miss? Another recipe I hope?" He pointed at the container.

"You bet," she opened it, "I know how much everyone loves my brownies, so I made some before I came here." The aroma was heavenly, as it roamed around the room and getting everyone's attention.

"Oh, I smell Lovell's cooking."

"Say, that looks delicious!"

"Hey, save some for us too!" The mammals grabbed the brownies one by one until there was none left. Sapphire leaned one arm on the counter as her eyes wandered around the room.

"Things never change," McDavis laughed as he cleaned an empty glass, "do you want a drink?"

"Davis, you know I don't drink, and for a good reason."

"I know, I know," he chuckled, "one glass and you'll be feelin' like havin' a three-day hangover." Sapphire smiled, though embarrassed to say it.

"I remember when you first came here," he reminisced, "it was for an investigation I believe."
