-The second extract from the casefiles of D.I. Hawes and D.S. Gray-

When D.S. Edmund Gray first arrived on the doorstep of Coates Hill Preparatory School for Boys, I.D. in one hand and takeaway cup of steaming coffee in the other, his initial reaction was how glad he was not to have gone there.
His companion, a certain D.I. Cynthia Hawes, however, was more concerned about how easy it looked to climb out if the large, ornate Gothic style windows on the upper floors and make your way safely (ish) down to the ground below.
And to D.I. Hawes's intent amusement, not that she would ever admit it to another living soul, it seemed one of the  young boys had done just that.

Kidnap My Heart by TheFlamingPopsicle

Emma van der Bilt is clever, snarky, and spoiled rotten. William Knight is cocky, impatient, and slightly dimwitted. So how exactly did Will manage to kidnap Emma and her best friend twice and live to talk about it? *** "What the hell-" I screeched. "Good morning, sunshine." I looked up in alarm and saw the smirking face of my kidnapper. His face would have made me a lot angrier had it not been terribly swollen, thanks to yours truly. "I'd say good morning, but judging by the boner on your face, I'd say you weren't having such a good morning." His self-satisfied smirk fell almost instantly, and his partner-in-crime laughed out loud from the driver's seat. "Actually," he said, "I'm having a pretty good morning. My luck's about to change. You wanna know why?" I didn't answer. "I'll tell you why. I've successfully kidnapped the daughter of one of the richest men in the country." "Don't start counting your lucky stars just yet. This isn't over yet," I snapped. "Isn't it?" he asked, raising the eyebrow above his good eye. His other one remained in a permanent squint, and it made it kind of hard to take him seriously. "I'm not the one who's naked and tied up in a stranger's back seat." I glanced down at myself and noticed for the first time that I was in my bra and panties. Honestly, I was kind of relieved. When he'd said "naked," I'd assumed he meant birthday-suit naked, not half-naked. *** Warning: Rated PG-13 for sexual content and language. Mostly language. I have a colorful vocabulary.

Two Heads. by TiNyDiAmOnD101

-The first extract from the casefiles of D.I.Hawes & D.S.Gray- Edmund Gray is already under pressure. He's just been promoted to the rank of Detective Sargeant at his job in the Oxfordshire Police, and his new boss, the infamously irritating Detective Inspector Cynthia Hawes, seems set on returning Edmund to his old life of blue uniforms, pedal bikes, and giving directions to innocent old ladies like she has many others before him. But when a Japanese student at Oxford University is found murdered in a dingy back alley, D.I. Hawes is put on the case, Edmund along with her. First weeks at new jobs don't tend to get much worse than this... Later Hawes&Gray Cases: #2. Tom Thumb #3. Lips White As Snow #4. Watch Your Back NOTE: I have gone explicit for this series, as I believe it to be necessary for the storyline, but I haven't done it much, and I really hope you all don't mind.

The Black Phoenix by potterhead0928

Nine year old Nymphadora Black and one year old Draco Malfoy-Black were the only children to escape abduction, being saved by a house elf who caught the intruder in the act.
