“Good morning, Gabriella.” He greeted her, opening the door, not seeing towards her desk by now. No reply came. As Joseph entered the office there he saw a woman standing behind Gabriella’s desk, she wore a white long sleeved dress that barely reached the ground. She did not face him. On every corner of the room there were men in black robes. Joseph’s heart skipped a beat. He did not know what this was, but he felt an odd shiver running down his spine. He pushed it away. “Can I help you?” The men did not move they stood in a military fashion hands behind their backs their look straight forward, no one in this room looked at him. The woman’s voice rose softly. “We’re looking for someone, someone we believe might be your client. Someone who goes by the name of...” - Finch - Joseph thought. “Yes.” He shivered and felt trapped in a corner. The white lady had long dark hair reaching far down her back. Joseph did not see her face. “Where is she?” “I don’t know, and I’m afraid I can’t tell you due to patient confidentiality.” She moved along the window she was gazing out of.

“Mr. Grey, this client of yours is guilty of the highest crime there is.” Her voice was still soft, she took a long breath and then she whispered in his ear: “Treason.” Joseph felt very safe still and a part of him really wanted to tell them. “I’m sorry, but if you’re a crime investigator don’t you have access to her files?” “I do, but she seems to be gone from there and after all I gathered from her absence, here in this office was the last time she was seen. So, you see I need to ask you if you might be able to help me find her. Did she ever mention a hideout another home something subtle maybe?” Joseph was curious but careful as well. This was strange, and those people could have been anyone. Even though this whole setting scared and alarmed him he decided to make a bold move. “Can I see your ID, please? You sure understand I need to see this before I can give you any information.”

“Mr. Grey.” Her voice lost its loveliness and carried sharp blades instead cutting Joseph’s skin and eardrums. It hurt. The room seemed to suddenly shrink towards him and the black guards came closer. Joseph was pressed on the floor he tried to fight it, but something pushed him down with sheer force. The guards stood around him now there was a red glow shining through the deep shadows their hoods provided. “Do you have any idea where she might be?” The voice now thundered through the room and echoed from all directions back at him. Joseph was terrified, but not willing to give up anything even if he knew something. Something kept pressing him even harder into the ground until the floor underneath him started to crack open.
