It wasn't me

[RACHEL02189]

It was a rainy night in Las Vegas with lightning shooting from the sky like Zeus himself was sending them. Thunder banging so loud you swear someone was shooting a canoon from the heaven. In a house world famous magician Criss Angel was looking around his place feeling lost. IT WASN'T ME I SWEAR played in his mind. His cell sitting on his table was ringing he looked and saw it was his brother JD. Everyone from JD to news reporters were calling him. "LEAVE ME ALONE,"Criss yelled at the phone than threw it at the wall. "JUST LEAVE ME THE :mad: ALONE!!!". Criss fell into his couch as he fell his pants leg came up to reveal a motioner anklet just looked at it made Criss want to take it off.

Outside his next door neighbor's granddaughter was watching Criss's house with a sad feeling in her heart. She hated seeing Criss so down in the dumps considering what had happened and wanted to help Criss but didn't know where to start. She got up from her room and went to look in on her grandmother. She saw her grandmother had left her light now. She went in and turned off the light. Her seventy-five year old grandmother was battling cancer and she was nearing the end of her life. As she checked on her grandmother her mind remembers the day she met the master magician.

---------------------

It was six months ago that she came to Las Vegas to be with her grandmother who raised after her parents had abondon her. Outside his house Criss was pulling in when he saw a woman bringing in some boxes to her neighbor's house. He walked over to see what was going on. "Can I help you with this?" Criss asked. Not seeing who it is she said sure. Criss took one of the boxes as the woman shut the trunk. "Thanks for the help-". She turned around and saw Criss. "Christopher but people call me Criss"he replied. "My name's Honey" she replied smiling. "Honey that's a name I've never heard"Criss remarked. "What do you expect for having hippies for parents come on in" and Criss followed her. "So how do you know Mrs. Clementine?"Criss inquired. "She's my grandmother I'm moving in to help her since she's dieing of cancer"she replied as Criss put the box down. "I know that feeling I wouldn't wish that on anyone having to see someone they love go through this"Criss remarked. "Well I owe her my parents abondon me when I was a baby so she raised me instead of me going into foster care" Honey stated.

"Honey is that you"a voice called out. "Yes grandmom your neighbor is just helping me with my stuff" she replied. Mrs. Clementine came down the stairs holding on to the banister. Honey went up and help her grandmother down the rest of the stairs. "Oh Christopher how nice to see you thank you for helping my granddaughter with her stuff"she said. "It's no problem and my mother send her regrads she sorry she missed you the last time she came to visit"Criss stated. "Well tell your mother she still owes me seventy-five cents from our last game of gin". Criss and Honey tried not laugh. "When I talk to her I'll tell her". "Why don't you walk Criss out Honey I'm going to watch some TV". "All right" and went out with Criss. "Thanks again Criss"Honey stated. "No problem and if you need something or some help just leave a message in my mail box" Criss said and walked off.

The next day at the Luxor everyone was a buzzed to what happened to Criss. "I can't believe this. The cops just walked into The luxor and went to Criss's production office and brought him out". "But don't forget he kept saying he didn't do it". "But they found the jewelary in his dressing room". "I still think someone framed him". "I think he did it he's got no alibi and the jewelary was found in his dressing room. JD couldn't stand listening to the gossips everyone was saying. He walked into the production office and saw Costa sitting there. "Have you talked to him"he asked. "He doesn't want to talk to anybody"JD replied. "JD do you honestly think Criss stole that jewelary"Costa remarked. "I honestly don't know if Criss did it or someone is framing him" as they sat down. A knock came to the door. JD look through the shade and saw it was Robin. Robin had become the new owner of The Luxor after it was decided that Felix couldn't handle being the owner of the place which pist off Criss the most considering his friendship with Felix.

JD opened the door. "What do you want?". "Look I'm sorry but I need you to clear out the Mindfreak production office"she remarked. Costa got up and walked over. "Look Robin everysince you became owner you've been trying to edge Criss out but untill my brother has been found innconent of the charges we're not clearing out"Costa added. "Listen guys you may work for you brother but this is my hotel and what I say go now clear out!!". "Not untill you have a court order" and JD slammed the door in her face. At Serenity Criss was inside when the doorbell rang. "GO AWAY"he called out. "Christopher it's Honey let me in"she stated. Criss got up and answered the door. He saw Honey standing there while the photographers were on the other side of the street some even standing on cars and vans trying to get picture of Criss. He let Honey in but flipped off the reporters as he closed the door.

"Nice Christopher"she said as they sat down. "I'm just getting sick of this. Everyone thinks I stole that necklace which I didn't" Criss said. "You have to see it from their end you have no alibi and the necklace was found in your dressing room when they searched the place". "I know but I just wish I knew who did this" as tears fell down his face. Honey felt sorry for Criss and gave him a hug. "Don't worry Criss they'll find the person who framed you"she said. "Thanks Honey".

After talking to Criss and seeing all the reporters outside Criss's home Honey felt like she needed to help Criss in any way she could. She walked in and saw it was almost time to go to work. She went upstairs and changed into her uniform as she was leaving the night nurse came over and asked what to do about the reporters that keep snicking up onto their land. "Tell them if they don't get off you'll call the cops and you'll charge them with trepressing. If that doesn't move them tell them you'll shot them"she remarked. "But I don't have one". "Don't tell grandmom this but I have a liscence to carry a gun but I can't bring it to work so I keep it in a lock box under my bed and here's the combination to it" giving her the numbers. "Just keep the safety on"Honey stated.

She gave her grandmom a kiss and left. As she got in to her car the reporters swarmed her car but she ingored them and threaten to run over them if they didn't move which some happily agreed to. When she got to her job she saw JD on the phone. "Just help us Rick my brother isn't paying you for nothing" and hung up as Honey walked up. "Lawyer not helping much with Criss's case". "I'm wondering if this guy has a liscene to pratice law. Have you seen Criss?". "Yea he really wants to know who framed me the night that necklace was taking from the exhibit"Honey stated. "Me too I've talked to the guys upstairs and they say that they can't understand how this happened either". "Don't worry JD they'll find the guys who did this" and went to clock in. Upstairs in the security Honey came in for her shift. As she was filled in on what's going on Robin came up. She walked pasted them and went over to their boss Xavier. "I need to talk to you Xavier" and they went into his office. "I bet you my next three pay checks that they're doing the nasty in there" Marcus stated. Honey felt naucious as that thought poked into her head. "Hey Marcus has anyone found any evidence linking Criss Angel to stealing that necklace?" she inquired. "The one that they found in his dressing room". "Come on Marcus have the cops looked at any of the video of that night?"she asked. Marcus pulled Honey to the side. "I know what you're up to Honey and don't go there". "What try to prove Christopher is innocent so he can be cleared of this" she replied. "Honey you don't know what you're getting into". "Marcus you use to be an officer in a maxium security prison why are you actting like there's a yellow strip going down your back"Honey inquired. "Just forget it Honey leave it alone" and Marcus left.

[Smurf]

Poor Criss :( i really hope he will have some answers soon :) can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

As Honey did her job her mind couldn't stop thinking of Criss and how that necklace got into Criss's dressing room. "Hey Sam"she called out. "What's up?". "Let me ask you something were the cameras working the night the necklace was taking?". "I wouldn't know Xavier had me, Marcus, and Julia on the floor". "All right and we have a pick pocketer near the black jack tables" showing him. "Got it" and Sam left. During her break Honey went to the exhibit where the necklace that Criss surposely stole was still on display. The neckalce was encrusted with Emeralds, Rubies, Purple Topaz just lined the side of the necklace but in the middle was a diamond but it was the rarest diamond in the world: a blood red diamond.

That diamond alone is probably as much as Believe takes in Honey thought. As Honey was leaving she looked around and saw where the cameras were even the ones that people didn't know. "There's got to be film the night this was stolen" she muttered. When she came back Xavier called her into his office. She walked in and sat down. "Honey I've heard that you wanted to see the footage of the night that Criss Angel stole that necklace. "Yes maybe there's something that proves Criss didn't do it. Maybe one of his crew did it and when the heat was catching up he or she put it in Criss's dressing"Honey suggested. "Well we talked to Criss's crew and the people of Believe they all have alibis". "Xavier you know me and my gut instict and this doesn't feel right someone is framing Criss Angel and we should found out who before his career is tarnished" Honey replied.

"Honey the day they arrested him his career got tarnished so forget about this little crusade about helping that poor excuse for a magican" he remarked. That night when Honey got home she could see Criss sitting on one of his bikes outside. "Decided to come out of hiding,"Honey stated through the gate. Criss walked down untill he stopped at a red line. "What's up with the red line" Honey asked. "It's about as far as I can go before this anklet goes off. God I hate this I keep telling these people I didn't steal it but nobody believes me"Criss said. "Not even your family"Honey said in shock. "Sandra left the dayI got arrained, JD and Costa want me to plead guilty so I can avoid a trial and my mom she's so embrassed that her famous son got arrested for grand larncey she won't even talk to me or come down to be by my side"Criss replied wiping away the tears. "Criss do you think there's anybody that would want you out of the magic business?"Honey inquired. "No". "Criss I know in my heart you didn't do it if you can think of anything that could prove your innocence tell me now". "I'll talk to you later Honey" and Criss went back into the house .

When Honey woke up the next day she went to the door to get the paper to find an envelope addressed to her underneath the paper. She looked at it with curiousity wondering who left it. She closed the door and opened the envelope to find DVDS-four to be exact. Honey looked at them on the table and wondered what was on them. Honey took one of the DVDS and put it in. It turned on and saw it was video of The Luxor. She watched it untill it showed the area where the necklace was. She saw a shadow of a person coming into the closed exhibit. The person took the top off and took the necklace, than put the box back as the person put the necklace in its pocket. "Holy :mad:" she muttered. She put in the next disc and saw it was the mindfreak production office and the place was empty expect for Criss. She watched as Criss took something out of his desk. She couldn't see what it was but the face on Criss looked like he was upset, but as his JD came in whatever Criss took out he put back in before JD saw it. What are you hiding Christopher she thought.

The mindfreak production office was closed down thanks to a court order by Robin. Honey walked over to the office. "You ready Marcus?" she asked through her phone. "Hold on all right you're in the blind spot". She hung up her phone and picked the lock to the office. Honey got it and went in closing the door behind her. The place was dark since the blinds were drawn so Honey took out a flash light and went over to Criss's desk. Honey tried the drawer but it was lock. She looked around the desk for key and found it hiding under a picture of him and his mom which made Honey smile as she looked at it. How could a woman not be there for her own child she thought. Honey opened the drawer and took out envelope.

Honey's jaw fell to the floor when she saw what it was. "No wonder Criss looked sad" she muttered. As she put the envelope back she saw a post it on the other side of the envelope. When she read it a smile came to her face. This could prove Criss's innocence. She put the envelope back and locked the drawer. After she called Marcus to make sure everything was clear Honey came out and left.

[Smurf]

that was a cliffhanger :) can't wait to find out what is in the envelope :) can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

At Serenity Felix had come to visit Criss. "So when does the trial start?". "Next week and Robin think that I'm going to jail has closed down Mindfreak production office, and from what CT told me is that she's finding a new act to put in The Believe theater"Criss replied. "Criss I know that you didn't do it and I'm going to be behind you one hundred percent". "Thanks Felix I wish my family was the same way"Criss remarked. A knock came to the door so Criss opened the door and saw it was Honey. "Hey Criss". "Honey what are you doing here?". "I have something to show you"she stated. "Come on in". Felix turned around and saw Honey walk in. "Mr. Rappaport nice to see you again" she said shaking his hand. "I thought Robin hired you"Criss said. "Well Robin might of hired her but I was the one who told her about the job so what's in the envelope Honey".

"Well they're videos from the cameras at The Luxor and I think there's a snake in the security department". She put in the video and showed them the DVD. "Look the person never shows his or her face"Felix stated. Then Criss noticed something. "Wait a second look at the way the person is standing like it's trying to hide how told the person is"Criss replied. "You should show this to the cops and your lawyer,"Felix suggested. Honey wanted to pull the ace up her sleeve to prove Criss's innocence but after seeing what it was she knew she couldn't say anything untill Felix left. "I should go keep the faith Criss". Criss walked Felix to the door and came back. "Criss there's something else you should see".. Honey put in the other disc and Criss's jaw fell to the floor. "I don't :mad: believe it someone put a camera in my production office!"Criss exclaimed. "That's not all there's one in your dressing room but it was turned off the night the necklace was stolen"Honey stated. "Someone has been spying on me I should have that person arrested for invasion of privacy"Criss said getting up. Then Honey noticed something in the next video that she hadn't seen yet. "Christopher there's something else you should see". Criss turned around and his eyes bugged out. There was Criss making out with Sandra in his bedroom.

"What the :mad: now they're spying on me in my own house!!". "Criss isn't that you and your mom in this room"she remarked. Criss looked at the angle of the video and walked over with a pair of sissors to a cross in his living room. Criss got up on a chair and saw the tiny camera embedded in the cross. Criss took the camera out its hiding place. Without saying anything Criss cut the wires and to add an exclamation point he stomped on the camera turning into a jigsaw puzzle.

At JD's house JD was enjoying a romantic dinner with his wife Lynn. "I love when Dimi goes out with her friends"his wife said as she kissed her husband. The phone rang but JD let it go to voice mail. "JD it's Criss I neecd you to come to Serenity right now. It's important". JD got up and grabbed his keys. "You really going to leave". "I have to I know that tone in my brother's voice something's up beside maybe he took his lawyer's advice and took the deal" he stated and left. In the back yard of Serenity Criss and Honey were waiting for JD and Costa. "You think they'll come" she remarked. "I hope so I can't believe someone was video taping me"he replied. The door opened and JD and Costa came in. "What do you want Criss?"Costa asked coming out to the patio. "Yea I just left a romantic dinner with my wife for you"JD added following Costa outside. "Before I go into this you remember my neighbor Honey".

"Hi guys"she said with a smile. "Criss can you get to the point before Lynn decides to divorce me"JD replied. "All right I found out that some one has been video taping me in my own house". Costa and JD didn't look impress. "Please Criss don't tell me you're getting paranoid "Costa stated. "You don't believe me look at this". He turned on the DVD on his portable DVD player and showed them. The guys couldn't believe it as they watched it. "Is that you and mom here?". "Yup and I found the recorder". He showed his brother the jawsaw puzzle of a camera. "And there was always one in the production office and Criss's dressing room"Honey added. "Do you think there could be one in our houses?" Costa inquired. "I don't know what to tell you guys just becareful"Criss said.

[Smurf]

Great Chapter :) i hope JD and Costa will start to believe Criss is not guity :) can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

The next day at the house Criss was outside sitting as Criss's lawyer and an officer came out. "What is this all about Christopher?". "Are you finally going to tell us how to stole that necklace?" the officer asked as they sat down. "No but I'll do one better someone has bugged my house" he replied. The officer wasn't impressed. "Are we getting paranoid mister magician". Criss went into his coat pocket and took out the jigsaw puzzle of the camera in a plastic bag. "I found this camera inbeaded in the cross above my fire place and there's one at my production office" "This isn't one of your misdirections to throw us off your scent". "Officer I don't care if you don't believe me but someone has bugged my house and unless those bugs are found I'm not living here"Criss remarked. "All right what about one of your brothers?".

"Can't I've been banned my brother's homes unless I plead guilty to these charges that I've been falsely accussed of"Criss replied. "How about a jail cell would you like that?". Criss and his lawyer wasn't amused by the comment. "Excuse me I need to use the bathroom" and Criss got up. In the bathroom Criss was feeling annoyed and fustard. He hated knowing someone was watching him like a rat in a maze but it seems only two people Honey and Felix felt he was innocent.

Great Chapter :) i really hope this person found out soon , can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

The next day Honey was looking at the view while her grandmother was sleeping when she looked at Criss's house and saw a tent outside. She took some bincolars and saw Criss coming out of the tent looking like he just woke up. What the :mad: Honey thought as Criss went into the house. Inside Criss got a few things from his room and did his business in the bathroom. After he brushed his teeth and got dress he went back outside and just sat in his hammock. A knock came to her door so she went to the door. When she opened the door nothing was there expect another package. Honey looked around but saw nothing expect the trash man picking up trash. Honey went inside and opened the package inside were two more DVDs with a note that just said: This may clear Angel of any wrong doing.

She grabbed the DVDs and ran to Criss's house. She knocked on the gate screaming for Criss untill he appeared. "What's wrong Honey?"he asked. "I got another package and a note came with it". Just as Criss pushed a button to open the gate a car came in. Honey walked in as George got out of the car with a guy in a suit that looked like he works for the CIA or the FBI. "George what's with the suit?"Criss asked coming over. "This is my buddy Issac he works for the FBI sweeping for bugs in office when JD told me what's going on with you I called Issac and see if he can help". "So Christopher do yo have any prove that they are cameras surposely in your house?". "Yes and I've got video prove of it too Issac" Honey replied. "And you are?". "Honey McDorrmett" shaking his hand. "Can you show me the disc?" Issac inquired. "Sure come on" and they all went inside. As Honey showed Issac the tape George saw the tent outside.

"Are you that bored that you decided to pitch a tent outside?" he whispered into Criss's ear. "So where did you find the camera Christopher?"he asked. "Right there in that cross above the fire place and this is what it looked like after I smashed it" showing him the jig saw puzzle of the camera in a ziploc bag. "I'll get my stuff out of the car and I'll sweep the place for you Christopher"Issac remarked and went to the car.

[Smurf]

Great Chapter :) this is getting exciting :) can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

While Issac swept for bugs Criss, Honey, and George sat outside. "I can't believe someone is doing this to you I wonder why"Honey said. "Bets me"Criss remarked. "You never answered my question about the tent Criss?"George said. "I couldn't stay in my house knowing that there are cameras in there so I had Luke buy me a tent and I've been sleeping in it for a few days going in to eat, dress and do my business so to speak"Criss replied. Issac came outside and we all stood up. "I've found one bug in your living room, two in your bedroom, one in another room, and two in your office". "What was the other room?"Criss inquired. Issac pointed to it Criss couldn't believe that there was a camera in his mother's room. "Thanks Issac". "No problem I've disarmed them so I'll come back tomorrow and remove them". "I'll see you later Criss nice to meet you Honey" George stated.

"Issac did you find any in my home theater?"Criss inquired. "No". George gave his cousin a hug and shook Issac's hand. After they left Criss and Honey went upstairs to the theater and watched the rest of the discs that came this morning. One of them was another view of the necklace but the person had its back to the camera. "Criss that's not you I can tell just by the height on the person that's not you"Honey remarked. "And the hands no tattoos"Criss stated looking at the greek letters on his knuckles. Criss put in the other disc but when it came on he started to feel sick. On the disc was a video of Robin and Xavier making out. Marcus owes me three pay checks Honey thought. "I got to turn this off before I vomit"Criss expressed as the wave of nausea started to hit. "Criss I hate to tell you this but that's your dressing room in Believe"Honey replied. Criss looked again. "You're right great I'm going to have to burn that mattress, pillow, and sheets"Criss stated.

[Smurf]

Great Chapter :) poor Criss i hope they find out who is doing this , can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

After Honey left Criss's house she noticed a car across from Criss's house that she kept seeing again and again. When Honey decided to walk over to find who was in it the car drove off like a bat out of hell but Honey did manage to get a partical license plate. Inside the house Criss called his lawyer about the DVDs and he came over to have a look at it. "Look right there look at the hand it doesn't have the tattoos that I have and he looks like about five ten maybe five nine". "Criss I have to say that it's good evidence but they can say that you put make-up over the tatoos and you could be hunched over to make yourself look shorter"he replied.

"Come on if I hunch over that far I'd look like Quasimodo and I'd be in traction for a year"Criss remarked. "Criss I don't know what I can do with this like I said before you need proof positive evidence that you didn't do this". "You know what Rick I'm getting sick of your attitude so you're fired". "You can't fire me". "I can and I did now get the :mad: out"Criss stated. "Don't come crying to me when you go to jail" and the guy left. When he got outside Rick dialed a number. "Hello". "Listen your plan failed Criss fired me and he has prove that he didn't steal that necklace so you get another plan going soon".

[RACHEL02189]

At his house JD was looking over some stuff when the phone rang. "If this is a repoter I'll tell you again no comment and call me again I've have you arrest-". "JD it's Criss". "Sorry I've had reporters calling the house like telelmarketer what can I do for you"JD stated. "I fired Rick today". "Seriously well may I say congraulation"JD said. "And would you believe a guy by the name Russel Holley called me saying he'll take my case for free"Criss replied. "I've heard of this guy he's an awesome lawyer but how did he get a hold of your number"JD inquired. "His sister is Honey's grandmother's nurse and when Honey told her that I maybe firing my lawyer the nurse called him up"Criss remarked.

"I'm starting to like this Honey"JD said smiling. "I'll talk to you later" and hung up. At The Luxor Honey was coming into work when she saw Costa getting a drink. "Hey Costa" she remarked getting a drink herself. "Oh hi Honey what are you doing here?". "I work upstairs with the eye in the sky. "In other word you work for Xavier god that guy is such an :mad:" Costa replied. "You'll love this I got another dvd today that might prove Criss innocent and another one of Xavier and Robin getting it on in Criss's dressing room"she said. "Xavier and Robin that's disgusting talk to you later" and he left.

[Veritas]

The plot thickens

[RACHEL02189]

During the day Honey was working when she noticed a crowd developing near the doorway. "Marcus can you get camera one in the artium for me there's a crowd developing" she remarked. "Maybe Paris Hilton in town" Marcus suggested. "Or the Kardashians are here" she added. When the camera angle came up Honey nearly got up and did cartwheels in the room. It was Criss with his lawyer and JD. "What's Christopher doing here I thought he was on house arrest untill his trial"Marcus stated. "Bets me"Honey said smiling as Xavier and Robin came out. "I'll get that paper work right to you Ms. Amber"Xavier said as he fixed his shirt. Marcus and Honey rolled their eyes knowing full well they weren't fooling anyone. As Robin walked pasted one of the cameras she saw on the montioner Criss with his brother.

Down in the artium Criss was sitting down as he had some coffee with his brother. "So how's Russel working out for you?". "Better than Rick he got the judge to release me on ROR with surrender of my passport-"Criss stated. "Understandable they don't want you going to Canada or Mexico for that matter"JD replied as Criss chuckled. "And I'm off house arrest". "What the hell are you doing here Angel"A voice called out. Criss didn't even need to turn around. "Nice to hear you Robin still noisey as ever"Criss replied. "I should have you arrested for trespassing you're not even allowed to leave your house". I can leave my house now I'm off house arrest"Criss remarked getting up turning to her. "How in the sam :mad: did you do that?". "Just the lady I was looking for Russel Holley Mr. Angel's attorney" he said.

"What do you want?". "Well for once I would like to talk to the people that were on the night the necklace was stolen, also we would like to run a simulation in the area where the necklace is"he replied. "Noway he may steal it again"Robin said. "Well just incase I have an order from the judge to let us do it" giving her the paper. Robin looked steam as she left.

Honey was happy that Criss finally was back where he belonged but it still didn't explain why someone framed him what was good in that or was there a secret plan that needed Criss out of the way. "I got to stop reading those mystery books"Honey said to herself. After she finished her shift Honey was walking to her car when Criss saw her. "Honey wait!"he called out. "Criss what's up?". "I wanted to thank you if it wasn't for you I'd still be on house arrest with a lawyer who probably hasn't pass the bar"Criss remarked. "We should thank the person who gave me those DVDs"she said. "Well I should get back inside they're doing a simulation with me and another guy who is short to prove that it couldn't of been me"Criss said.

"Bye Christopher" and Criss went back in. When Honey got home her mother's nurse was watching a documentry. "Hey Honey"she said. "Hi how my grandmom doing". "Not so good she's been having a hard time with her breathing that I had put her on the oxgyen mask" she replied. Honey sighed knowing the end was near for her grandmother's suffering. "What you watching?" Honey inquired sitting down. "It's about a mobster that helped make Las Vegas. One of the rumors is he may of buried some jewels from a heist a friend of his did in Las Vegas". "Really what was his name?". "Only by his nick-name Springs"she replied "Do they know where?". "It might be under any of the hotels or someone might of found it and kept it for themselves" Honey suggested. "For all we know he's probably one of those whales at the hotel I'll see you tomorrow" and went to bed.

Great Chapter :) i'm glad Criss is back where he belongs , i hope they find the people who did it soon, can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

That night Criss was cleaning or in his mind disinfecting his Believe dressing room. "Doing a little spring cleaning in August?"JD inquired . "It's a long story JD do me a favor throw these in the trash" giving him a trash bag. JD looked inside. "Why are you throwing away these mom pick these out for this room"JD said. "I'll tell you later" as Criss put on a pair of rubber gloves and took off the mattress and laid it on the wall. "Are you redecorcating or feng shuing the room and why is there a post it on the wall". JD was about to take it off when Criss took him outside. "I got another video and there's a camera in my dressing room I got to have George's friend take it out". "And the massive cleaning". "In the tape was Xaiver and Robin having fun in here"Criss replied. "I got a friend that can loan you a hazmat suit"JD remarked.

"Don't temp me I ordered a new mattress so you want to help me throw this mattress in the trash". "Can I have a pair of gloves too"JD offered. The next day Honey came in to get her pay check when she saw someone going over to Mindfreak production office. She walked over and tried the door which was unlocked. She walked in and saw someone looking through Criss's drawer. She turned on the lights and it was Criss. "Criss what are you doing in here Robin will blow a fuse if she sees you in here". "I needed to get something before Robin found it"Criss replied. "Your divorce papers"she stated.

[RACHEL02189]

"How did you know about the papers?"he asked. "One of the videos had you in the production office reading them. I came in here to find evidence to clear you and those papers can clear you they were filed the night that necklace was stolen" she stated. "No way these are becoming public knowledge"Criss replied. "Why don't we get out of here and talk about it" Honey suggested. They were about to leave when the door knob started to open. "In the closet"Criss whispered. They got in just as the door opened and Robin and Xavier walked in. "Did you leave the lights on?". "I don't remember listen we have to do something Christopher is going to ruin it all"Robin replied. "Do you think he knows what he's got underneath his warehouse a fortune in jewels"Xavier remarked.

"Yea but we need to find out where his warehouse is". "Did you check the tapes from the camera's Sam put it in when he was visiting his mom in New York?"Xavier asked. "They were taken out it looks like he found them and he found the one in his dressing room"she replied. "If your stupid :mad: of brother lawyer keep his end of the bargin we would have those jewels by now". "Don't blame me blame the judge he's the one who put Criss on house arrested in the first place now that he found a better lawyer we have to find out where his warehouse. You better find out how since your last plan of framing Criss didn't go so well" she replied.

Great Chapter :) i hope these two get found out , Can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

After they left Criss and Honey came out of the closet. "I can't believe this"Criss stated coming out with Honey. "I know but how can we prove this they can say something different"Honey remarked. "Let's get out of here before they come back"Criss suggested and they left. When they came out JD and Costa walked over. "What were you guys doing in there?"JD inquired. "JD get your head out of the gutter or get it clean please". JD rolled his eyes. "You won't believe this Robin and Xavier framed Criss and bugged Serenity just to find out where his warehouse is" Honey remarked. "Why?"Costa asked. "It seems under the warehouse is a fortune in jewels that a ganster stole years ago"Criss replied. "Seriously wow". "First let's get out of here and we'll go to my house which I hope it isn't bugged" and everyone left.

When they got outside Honey saw the same car that she saw at Criss's house. "What's wrong Honey?"JD asked. "That car over there I saw it at Criss's house"Honey remarked pointing out. "I've noticed that car around here too but everytime I try to go near the car it runs out of here like a bat out of the hill" Costa added. "This is getting stranger by the minute"Criss stated. When they came in Lynn was there and she looked frazzled. "Lynn what's wrong?"JD said walking over. "I came home after dropping Dimi off at the movies when I came in the whole house was dark. As I felt around for a light switch someone grabbed me". "Are you all right?"Criss asked. "Yea he wanted to know where your warehouse if but I didn't tell him I know you don't like people knowing where your warehouse is"she replied. "I'm going to call mom to make sure she's all right" Costa said.

[Veritas]

A "ganster", huh? Think it could be our old friend, Springs?

[Smurf]

great chapter :) this story is getting exciting , can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

"So what do we do now?"Honey inquired. "I think we should fnd those jewels and dig them up"JD remarked. "One problem we don't know where in the warehouse they are. I'm not tearing up my warehouse for something that might not even be there"Criss replied. "Hold on I remember my grandmother's nurse watching a documentry about a jewels heist. They said that the person who helped with the heist his nick-name was Springs"Honey stated. JD and Criss looked at eachother. "DANNY" the both said in unision. "Who's Danny?" Lynn inquired. "Long story Lynn I'll explain to you later". "I haven't heard his name in ages but I think mom still talks to him when she's in town" Criss replied. "COSTA don't hang up"JD called out as he ran to the phone. "Criss does this have to do with that trial you were involved in a few years back?"Lynn inquired. Criss remembered the trial and the madness that came with it. JD and Costa came back.

“I talked to mom Danny still lives in Neveda and Criss you’ll get a kick out of this four block from your house”. Everyone tried not to laugh at that. “No wonder mom would always take a walk around the block and it took her three hours to do it”Criss stated. “I need to get home so the visiting nurse can leave I’m already late as it is”Honey remarked. “JD Lynn pack a bag you’ll stay with me tonight and Costa call George in the morning and tell him I have more work for his friend Issac”Criss stated. After Criss dropped her off and went inside Honey saw that car again. “Christopher the car’s back”she called out. Criss saw it and decided to sneak over to it with out them noticing. Criss snuck up from the back and opened the door. “Honey you should come and see this”Criss called out. Honey came down and who it was shocked her.

Great chapter :) can't wait to find out what was in the car :)

[RACHEL02189]

BANGING HEAD :mad:

[RACHEL02189]

In the car was Marcus. "Marcus!". "Look you've got the wrong idea". "Marcus you've been following me and Honey for all I know your the person who broke into my brother's house and scared his wife into finding out where my warehouse is"Criss stated. Marcus got out of the car. "No way Criss I've been helping you and Honey"he replied. "You're the one who left those DVDs"Honey remarked. "I found those DVD in with some that were getting thrown out but they weren't the ones we use so I took them home and when I saw what was on them I knew that Criss was framed"he replied. "But why did you give them to me instead of Criss or his lawyer?"Honey inquired. "I didn't know who to trust but when you started to wonder if Criss was innocent I knew you could be trusted Honey"Marcus replied.

"Marcus why were you following us?"Criss wondered. "I wanted to make sure you guys were all right if Robin and Xiaver ever found out what I've done Xaiver would fire and Robin would black ball me from ever getting a job at a casino here in Las Vegas"Marcus replied. "Thanks Marcus just keep your eyes open and your ear to the ground and if you find more hold on to it and give it to me or Criss"Honey suggested. "I'll do you one better here's the adress of my lawyer who's handling the case give him everything that you've found or you find"Criss said writing down an address. "Thanks guys". Marcus got into the car and left.

[Smurf]

Great chapter :) I wonder if criss can trust marcus , can't wait to read more :)

[RACHEL02189]

That night Criss was on the phone with his lawyer. "Thanks" as Criss hung up he heard an amblunce outside. Criss went outside and saw an amblunce parked next door. He walked closer and saw Honey outside with tears rolling down her face. She looked up and saw Criss just by looking at her eyes Criss knew what had happened. He walked over to Honey as she wiped the tears off her face. "You all right?"he asked. "Yea my grandmother put up a good fight bt the cancer finally beat her"she replied. "I'm so sorry Honey". Criss gave her a hug as memories of what he went through with his father came back. "She was fighter Criss your mom always said that to her when she visited". "My mom can always find the good in anything" Criss remarked. "I should go make the arrangemnt for her" .

"If you need any help just come over". "Thanks Criss" she said as she walked over to the amblunce. In New York Dimitra was heading for bed when the phone rang. "Hello". "Hey mom it's Criss" he said. "Christopher you sound so down what's wrong?" she asked. "Honey's grandmother died this evening". "Oh I'm so sorry to hear that" she remarked. "Yea I thought you'd like to know considering you always went to see her when you were in town" he replied. "Thank you Christopher for telling me so how's the fight going?". "Good did JD and Costa tell you that I have a teasure buried somewhere underneath my warehouse"Criss said with a bit of scarscum. "They also told me Danny may know where they're buried" she replied. "Yea tomorrow we're going to talk to him but I have to ask you mom why didn't you tell me that he lived in the same neighborhood as me?"Criss asked. "I remember how protective you were of me when I started up my friend ship with Danny-".

"Mom I may of been a bit jealous of the friendship you have with him". "A bit-". Criss chuckled. "But I'm all right with it". "He even asked me to marry him". Criss jumped from his seat. "WHAT!!!!". Dimitra started to laugh. "Gotcha Christopher" as Criss laughed himself. "Now I know where I got my sense of humor from good night mom"Criss remarked and hung up.

Just hope it's not a neutron bomb! *wink wink nudge nudge*

[RACHEL02189]

The next day Criss, JD, and Costa went to see Danny. "Criss where's Honey I thought she was coming with us"Costa inquired. "Her grandmother died last night she's making the arrangement for her funeral today"Criss replied. "I was wondering why mom was at my door at six in the morning"JD stated. "As a favor to me mom's helping her out so she doesn't get overwhelmed by it"Criss remarked as they came to Danny's house. When they got there a car was pulling in. The guys walked in and saw Danny getting out of the back. "Hey Springs!" Criss called out. Danny turned around and saw the guys walking up the drive way. "Christopher, JD, Costa how nice to see you how's your mother," he asked shaking their hands.

"Where's your car or did you walk here from The Luxor". "My mom didn't tell you I live around the corner so to speak"Criss replied. Danny blushed. "Sorry I guess my age is showing". As the driver's door opened Criss and the rest of the guys nearly had heart attacks when Xaiver got out. "Uncle Springs you didn't tell me you knew Criss Angel"he stated as he shut the door. "Yea I'm good friends with their mother Dimitra or Didi as I call her" Danny replied. "So that's the woman who comes over well I'm going to go in the house just don't stay out here too long" and Xaiver went in. "So boys what can I do for you?" Danny asked as the guys picked their jaws off the floor. "Danny how do you know Xaiver?"JD asked. "His father was apart of the gang back in the days. I helped raised him when his father was killed by a rivilary gang after he cheated them out of a quarter of million dollars which was a lot in those days"Danny explained. Criss looked at his watch. "Dam it guys I just remembered I got a meeting with Dave" Criss stated.

JD looked at Criss and knew where he was going. "Oh yea now I remember sorry to cut this short Danny"JD remarked. "No problem maybe I can have you guys over for dinner". "How about this why don't you come over to my house? Chef Ed makes a mean steak that would make a vegan convert"Criss offered. Costa could tell Danny was on the fence. "Come on Danny our mom's in town for a while and you have to see Serenity it's so peaceful there you'll be asking Criss if you can move in"Costa said. "All right boys you've twisted my arm see you tonight" and the guys left as Danny went in. "Now we know how Xavier found out about the jewels" Criss said as they walked down the drive way. "That was a good idea to invite Mr. Springs over for dinner". "I thought it be easier to talk to him about the jewels without Xaiver around come on" and the guys went back to Serenity.

[Veritas]

How about this: why don't you come over to my house? Chef Ed makes a mean steak that would make a vegan convert," Criss offered.

When Criss and his brothers came home Dimitra and Honey were pulling up as well. "Thanks for helping me Dimitra I wouldn't of known where to start" she remarked. "I know how hard it is to plan a funeral and your grandmother deserves a nice funeral" giving her a hug. "Hello ladies"Criss stated. "How was your talk with Springs?"Dimitra asked. "We found out something Xavier knows Danny". Dimitra's eyes felt like they were about to pop out of her skull. "Are you serious?"Honey replied. "As long as I'm standing here Honey. It seems Xavier's father was apart of Danny's gang back in the days"Costa stated. "So you couldn't talk to him about the robbery with out showing your hand to Xavier"Honey remarked. "Yes but Christopher came up with a plan; he invited Danny over over for dinner tonight".

"Christopher you are sneaky sometimes"Dimitra said. "Do you mind if I come Criss?"she inquired. "No I want you to come" Criss replied. "Well I'll see you guys tonight thanks again Dimitra" and Honey left. Criss walked Honey to her house and when he came back everyone was looking at him like his pants were hanging around his ankles. "What's with the looks am I flying low" he inquired. "Criss are you falling for Honey?"Costa inquired. "No Honey's not my type"Criss remarked going into the house as the rest followed. "Christopher I know that look. You had the same look when you married Sandra"JD remarked. "Criss have you talked to Sandra since you found out that you were set up by Xavier and Robin?"Costa asked.

Criss said nothing and went to his office shutting the door behind him. Criss sat down in his chair with his legs on top of the desk as Dimitra came in. "You all right Christopher?"she asked. Criss went into his desk and put a file on his desk that Dimitra took a look at. "Divorce papers Sandra wants a divorce". "She sent them the day I was arrianged I tried calling her but the only words out of her mouth is TALK TO MY ATTORNEY"Criss stated. "Do your brothers know about this?". "No just keep this between us please". "All right" giving the file back to Criss. She gave her son a kiss and left.

[RACHEL02189]

That night Honey was walking over to the house as a car pulled up. "Come back around nine" Danny remarked closing the door. "All right call me if something changes" and the car left. "You must be Danny Springs"Honey said walkng over. "And who might you be an angel?". Honey blushed. "My name is Honey I'm Criss's next door neighbor" shaking his hand. "Criss invited you over too". "Yes Criss and his family have been so nice to me. Dimitra is even helping me plan my grandmother's funeral" she remarked. "I'm so sorry for your lose I guess you were close to her". "She raised me when my parents spilt I owe her a lot" she stated. "Well why don't we go in before the neighbors start talking". Danny took her arm and they walked up the drive way together.

When they got to the door Dimitra was there. "Good evening Didi" Danny said giving her a peck on the check. "Hello I see you've met Honey" as they came in. "A very sweet girl kind of reminds me of my first wife"Danny replied as Dimitra took his coat. Honey blushed. "Even at his age he's still a ladies man"Criss said walking over. "Looks who's talking you've got a PHD in romancing the ladies Christopher"he said as Criss snickered. "Would you like a drink?"Dimitra inquired. "Sure I'll have an Ice Tea with sugar and a lemon"Honey replied. "Let me guess a Manathan for Danny"Criss stated as Dimitra and Honey giggled. "Very funny Criss but I'd like some red wine if you have it". "Sure why don't you go outside it's a lovely evenging and JD and his wife are allready here" Criss suggested. "Where's Costa?" Honey asked. "Probably on Freemont Street getting a date"Criss said from the kitchen. Dimitra rolled her eyes as Honey and Danny went outside.

Outside JD and Lynn were talking as Danny and Honey came out. "JD who is this lovely lady?"Danny inquired smiling. "Danny this is my wife Lynn. Lynn this Danny mom's friend"JD said. "Glad to meet you Danny" shaking his hand. "JD may I say if I was younger I'd give you a run for your money with this lady" as Lynn blushed. "Come on Danny stop being such a flirt" Dimitra remarked sitting next to Danny. "Where's Criss's wife Sandra?" Danny inquired. "She's visiting her family right now"Dimitra stated. "I'm surprise she isn't here being by Criss's side through this mess he's in"JD replied. "Here we go red wine for Danny, two ice teas for the ladies, and a Martini for me"Criss stated as we sat down. "So Christopher what did you want to talk about with me".

"How did you-". "Criss I can read people tricks of the trade I could tell just by the way people were standing, sitting or by the way they talked if they were lieing or had something up their sleeves and you guys when you saw Xavier today I could tell what you had to ask me you didn't want Xavier to know"Danny remarked.

"Maybe I should put you in my show Danny"Criss said as Dimitra snickered. "So what's up Criss?". "You know that I'm being falsely accused of stealing that necklace on display at The Luxor"Criss explained. "What you mean that necklace with the rarest jewels on it". "Yea well we all found out that the people want something else and they thought framing me for stealing that necklace would help them". "All right but what do you need from me?"Danny asked. "It seems some jewels that someone in your gang stole and gave to you is what they want". "But I buried those jewels decades ago in the desert"Danny replied. 'It seems they found out where they were buried under my warehouse"Criss stated. "You serious?". "We're sorry to say this Danny but Xavier is one of the people that framed Criss thinking that maybe with Criss out of the way they could go into the warehouse to find where they were buried, but they've got a hole in their plans"JD remarked.

"Nobody expect the people that work for me know where my warehouse is" Criss replied. "I can't believe Xavier would do this?". "Danny they bugged the house, Criss's dressing room at Believe, and his production office with cameras just to find out where that warehouse is"Honey stated. "Xavier was always good with electronics. Criss if there's anything I can do to help you". "Just keep your ears open and think if you can remember exactly where you buried them. Maybe the people who made the warehouses haven't found them yet"JD stated. "I will now where is that steak dinner you promised me I don't like lairs Christopher"Danny replied. Right on cue Chef Ed called them to the table. "Talk about right on time ladies and gentlemen"Criss said and they went to the dining room table.

[RACHEL02189]

*I'm not sure of any of the hotel names in the fifties so I made it up

At the table Danny helped Honey and Dimitra with their chairs and not to be embrassed JD did the same with his wife. "So Honey tell me a little about yourself. What do you do for a living?"Danny asked as Criss poured water for everyone. "I work at The Luxor with security. I make sure nobody is cheating or stealing"Honey replied. "She's good Danny she's the one who knew I was innocent"Criss said. "I know this isn't great table talk but when your grandmother's funeral?"JD asked. "Tomorrow I can't believe my grandmother's gone she fought so hard"Honey stated trying not to tear up. "It's all right Honey death is the one thing we're never prepared for. You know it's there you just don't know where it's coming or when"Danny remarked. "That's deep Danny"Criss stated. "Yes thank you". "I have to say your grandmother was interesting lady I remembr her telling that she was a cirgarette girl at The Jubille*" Dimitra said.

"Maybe you knew her Danny"Criss remarked. "What was your grandmother's name Honey?". "Willow she told me she sold a cigar to Bugsy once"Honey stated. As Danny listened to some of the stories memories of a woman he knew when he worked. He loved her even wanted to marry her but she disappeared and Danny never heard or saw her again. "Danny you all right you haven't touch your steak"Dimitra stated as Danny came back to reality. "Sorry got lost in thoughts"Danny stated. After they finished dinner and had some desert Danny decided it was time to go. "It was nice to see yea Danny"Criss replied. "You too Christopher and I have to say this house is wonderful"Danny stated as Criss smiled. "Come on Danny I'll walk you out"Honey said. "We'll see you tomorrow at the church Honey call me if you need anything"Dimitra remarked giving her a hug. "Thank you" and they walked outside.

When they got outside Danny's ride was there. "Well it was nice to meet you Mr. Springs I hope I see you again"Honey said and started to walk. Danny watched her for a moment. "I'll be right back Xavier" and walked over to Honey. "Did you forget something Mr. Springs"she asked. "No I thought I'd walk you in just incase"he said as Honey smiled. "Thank you". She unlocked the door as Danny walked her in. "This is a beautiful place Honey did your grandmother design it". "Yea my grandmother had great taste she wanted to be a dress designer but she didn't get far. Thank you for walking me in" she said. "it was my pleasure". As Danny walked out he noticed a picture near the door way. "Honey is this your grandmother?". "Yea I always told her that picture was my favorite"Honey replied. Danny thanked her again and left.

great Chapters :) can't wait to find out what is going to happen :D loving this story :)

[RACHEL02189]

After the funeral Criss and his mother were at the house. "That was a nice funeral for Honey's grandmother"criss replied as Dimitra came over with some lemonade. "I'm surprise to see Danny there"Dimitra remarked. "Maybe he came with Xavier"Criss said. "Maybe". The phone rang and Criss answered. "Hello". "Christopher where the :mad: are you?". Criss didn't even need to look at the caller ID to see who it was. "Robin I told you yesterday that I had a funeral to go to this morning so we had to reschedule for later on in the day"he stated. Robin went on and on about how she was forced to rehire him by the board of directors. Criss was getting so annoyed he just put the phone down while Robin went on and on. Hammie even hissed at the phone which made Criss and Dimitra chuckle quietly. "I guess Felix isn't the only one who doesn't like Robin"Criss said quietly. "CHRISTOPHER are you still there"she called out. Criss picked up the phone and informed her that he'd be there at noon and hung up.

"Maybe we should set Costa up with her?"Dimitra suggested. "Mom that would be torture for this household and Costa. I"m going to get changed" and Criss went upstairs. As Dimitra cleaned up the door bell rang. Dimitra went to the door and standing there is HOney. "Honey what are you doing here?"she asked. "I was looking through some of my grandmother's stuff and I found an old letter addressed to your friend Danny Springs. I was wondering if you could give it to him"she asked. "How about we go to his house and you can give it to him yourself". "Thanks Dimitra"she remarked. "Christopher I'm going for a walk". "Tell Danny I say hello"he called back as Dimitra closed the door.

[RACHEL02189]

When Criss showed up he got a sicken feeling in the pit of his stomach which he only got when something wasn't right. "You all right"Marcus asked walking over. "Yea just got a weird feeling in my stomach I'll see you later"Criss said and went to Robin's office. When he opened the door Criss couldn't believe it there was blood everywhere than he saw Robin in her chair with her throat slashed. "Oh my god"Criss stated. Criss grabbed his phone about to dail 911 when he felt something sharp against his back. "Like my handy work Christopher,". Criss didn't even need to turn around to know it was Xavier. "Make a noise or use that phone I'll stab you so far into your back you'll be either dead or paralyzed"he replied. "I know it was you and Robin that set me up"Criss remarked as Xavier took Criss's phone from his hand.

"And if Honey and her complice didn't start snooping around Robin and I would of gotten away with it. Now you're going to take me to your warehouse or I'll frame you for this murder"he ordered. Back at Danny's house he was outside thinking of the past and the heartache he's had. He was lonely even thou he had Dimitra's friendship but he only saw her when she came to visit Criss and his brothers. Danny went to the palor where pictures were on tables of his friends, his family, his wife, and son; who got drafted but came home in a pine box. He sighed as a knock was heard. "Danny Dimitra a Honey are here to see you" a voice called out. Danny came out to see the lovely ladies standing in the hall way. "Didi Honey what can I do for you?"he asked.

"Well one thing thank you for coming my grandmother's funeral the flowers you brought were her favorite" Honey said. "I thought it be nice to pay my respect to a nice woman who raised her granddaughter when her own daughter didn't want to"he replied. "Do you remember the conversion JD brought up last night at dinner?"Dimitra inquired. "About Honey's grandmother that I may of known her or worked with her when she was younger. Why?". Honey pulled a letter out of her pocket. "I think my grandmom did know you I found this unmailed letter addressed to you" giving it to her. Danny looked at the address on it. "This was my old address back in the day"he said. "Why don't you open it and find out what she wrote"Dimitra suggested. Before he could Honey's phone rang. "Hello Marcus what's up are you serious thanks" and hung up. "Something wrong Honey?". "Is Criss doing something stupid or life threating again?"Danny asked.

"No Marcus was working up stairs when he saw Xavier with Criss and he saw Xavier had a knife to Criss's back"she replied. "Xavier has flipped his wig did they call the police". "For some reason Sam wouldn't let him saying it was nothing he shouldn't start up a panic so Marcus went to talk to Robin about it and found her body her throat was slashed". "Dear god"Dimitra replied. "Why would Xavier kill his wife for?". "HIS WIFE!!!!"Honey and Dimitra remarked in unision.

[RACHEL02189]

"But where would he take him?". "The warehouse to find the jewels"Honey replied. "Dimitra call JD or Costa I don't want you alone just incase Xavier needs more insurance"Danny suggested. "Danny why don't you stay here with Dimitra I'll go after Xavier and Criss". "But you don't know where the warehouse is?"Dimitra replied. Honey took out her phone and saw a blip on her screen. "I decided to put a tracking device on Xavier and Criss's car after finding out what was going on"Honey stated. "Let's go inside for now Dimitra" as Honey went back to her house. When she got back she went upstairs to her room and went to her safe where her gun was. She took it out, made sure they were bullets in it, and put it under her shirt before leaving.

At the warehouse Xavier had duct taped Criss to a chair while Xavier went over a map her had. "Now let's see forty step due north". "How do you even now they're still here Xavier the people who built this place probably found them" Criss said. "SHUT UP!!,"Xavier called out. "I know they're still here I can feel it". This is is loco Criss thought trying to get out of the duct tape. When Honey got to the warehouse she saw Xavier's car in the back. Honey put her gun in the back of her shirt and went in. Inside Xavier was using a sledge hammer on the ground slamming it. "Come on Xavier they are not here"Criss said trying to reason with him. Xavier walked over and put the knife to Criss's throat. "One more word out of you and I'll make sure you die the same way my wife did"he replied. Just looking into Xavier's eyes Criss knew he wasn't kidding.

Back at Danny's house Dimitra was pacing wondering if Criss was all right. "Didi sit down you're making me nervous"Danny remarked. "Sorry I'm just worried about Christopher if he's going to be all right or will Xavier hurt him". Danny went over and gave her a hug. "It's all right Didi," as Danny brought her over to the sofa. "Why don't we open this letter and see what Honey's grandmother work"Danny suggested. "All right". Danny opened the letter and it was a picture and a letter. Dimitra looked at the picture as Danny read the letter which read:

Dear Daniel,

I'm sorry you have to find out this way what I'm going to tell you but I had no choice considering. The reason I left Las Vegas was because I was pregnant and I knew that since you were married and the child was yours I had to leave for fear that your wife would have me killed. I have a girl who I named Connie. I love you Danny so please don't come looking for me and Connie.

Willow

"Wow I can't believe this" as Dimitra showed Danny the picture of a four month old baby girl. "I wonder"Dimitra said. "What?"Danny asked looking at Dimitra. "If this letter's true and Connie is your daughter than Honey might be your granddaughter"Dimitra stated as a smile hit his face. "Granddaughter wow that would be sweet to have a bit of family in my life"Danny suggested.

[Smurf]

Great Chapters , i hope Criss will be ok , and Xavier will get caught , can't wait to read more :)

When Honey got to the warehouse she could hear a jack hammer going. If he's using that on Criss-she thought. Honey went in quietly when she came in she saw Xavier digging through sme of the concrete that he had broking. As Criss watched Xavier out of the corner of his eye he saw Honey but before Criss could say anything Honey told him to be quiet. "YUREKA"Xavier called out. He found a bag but when he opened it there was a note in it that said:

SORRY THERE ARE NO JEWELS IN THIS BAG I GAVE THEM BACK TO THEIR OWNERS

Xavier screamed and threw the bag. "I can't believe it that :mad: gave them back. He's going to pay that :mad:". "Don't you dare hurt Spring Xavier he did the right thing by giving those jewels back"Criss stated. Great Criss piss him off more Honey thought. Xavier looked at Criss and took out the knife in his pocket. Honey took her gun out of her pocket. "Why don't I go back to Danny's place, kill him than go to your house and kill your loving mother"he suggested. "You lay on a hand on my mother-"Criss replied trying to break the tape from the chair. Then Xavier put the gun next to Criss's throat. "You know I never liked you Christopher or Felix. I had pay off a lot of people on that board to get Felix fired and to have my wife put on". Honey could tell she had to end this before Criss ended up dead.

"Xavier stop right where you are"Honey called out aiming the gun, but Xavier got behind Criss and put the knife against his throat. "One more step and this angel's blood will be all over the floor. "Give it up Xavier you're not going to get away with it. Just let Criss go and give yourself up"she said trying to get a clear shot of Xavier. "Noway if I can frame this idiot for grand theft I can probably kill both of you and make it look like a murder suicide"he said. "Christopher θραύεται πόδια του καιεμπίπτουν στην πλευρά ( smash his feet and fall to the side)"Honey called out. Criss got up a little and smashed the back of the chair legs onto Xavier's feet. Xavier screamed as he dropped the knife than Criss fell to the side and Honey had good enough shot that she shot him.

After she shot him Honey called 911 and told them what was going on, than ran over to Criss as Xavier just laid there like drift wood. "Nice shot Honey"Criss replied as she took the tape off. "And to believe my grandmother didn't like me having a gun she must be laughing up in heaven right now" she stated helping Criss up.

A few weeks went by and Criss was cleared of all charges and Felix was giving back his old job, but one thing that hadn't change was Criss and Sandra. In his office Criss was looking at the papers getting ready to sign them when a knock came to the door. Criss opened the door and standing there is Honey with a big smile. "Sorry to distruib you I had to tell someone this great news"she remarked as she walked into his office. "What's that" as they sat down. "Well you know how my grandmother had a child and your friend Danny was the father, after finding out a few things about my dead beat mother and some gentic testing it seems I'm Danny Spring's granddaughter"she replied. "Wow congrates Danny must be thrilled when he found out"Criss stated. "He is Danny even asked me to move into his home after I finish dealing with my grandmother's estate so you'll see me around a lot more" she remarked. "I heard Felix offered you Xavier's job"Criss stated. "Yea but I didn't take it I think Marcus has more experience, but Felix did do something since Sam was apart of the con and orginally stole to the necklace to frame you Felix fired him and gave me his job"Honey replied. Criss chuckled. "I guess everything is tied up in a nice package"he said. "Not really you're going to sign those divorce paper". "I don't think Sandra's coming back it's been like two weeks since the chargers were dropped"Criss said.

"Did you try calling her". "Numbers been changed I guess I wasn't meant to fall in love or be happy"Criss said with a sigh. Honey got up and gave Criss a hug. "I'm sorry Christopher if you want to talk give me a call all right". "Thanks Honey you're a great friend". "Are you going to be at Luquidity for drinks?" she inquired. "I'd rather be by myself tonight"Criss replied. "All right but we'll save you a Martini just incase"Honey replied. She gave Criss one more hug and left. After Honey left Criss sat down and signed his name. Strike two and threw the pen onto the desk. Criss sighed and went to get a drink. He was making his drink as a taxi outside pulled away. Criss brought his drink outside and just watch the sun fall. "Christopher"A voice called out. Criss turned and stood up standing there with her luggage is Sandra. Criss dropped his drink and went over to her.

"Christopher I am so sorry for doing what I did to you. I should of believed you than thinking I married a thief can you ever forgive me" she said. "I don't know Sandra you really hurt me when you left and sent divorce papers"Criss stated. "I got scared with everything people were saying that I honestly believed that you did do it Criss I was a fool to believe it but I'll do anything to regian your love"she remarked. "Just seeing you here knows that you do love me" and kissed her.

Back at The Luxor Honey, Danny, Dimitra and the guys were all having drinks. "So how does it feel to finally have someone blood related Danny?"JD inquired. "It feels good to know that I finally have a bit of family with me" giving Honey a hug. "I wonder where Criss is half of this celebration is for him"Danny remarked. Honey was about to say something when Criss and Sandra walked in. "Sorry I'm late I had some stuff to do"Criss remarked. "Sandra nice to see you back how are the folks?"JD inquired. "Honestly JD I didn't go to see my folks I left Las Vegas because I couldn't take what the press was saying about Criss". "So I set her somewhere untill this mess was settled and last night I told her to come back"Criss replied. As the drinks came Dimitra asked to speak to Christopher alone. He gave Sandra a kiss and followed his mother to the production office. "Christopher are you all right now that Sandra back. Considering she nearly divorced you?"she asked.

"We're going to be having a long talk but for right now I'm happy that I'm not going to jail"Criss replied. "What about the divorce papers?". "Threw them in the shredder and they are now confetti which I wqould love to throw"Criss stated as Dimitra gave him a kiss. When they came back Honey asked Danny what happened to the jewels. "There's one things I hate are thieves I may of been apart of some racketting but that's all I stepped in. The guys knew how I felt so they didn't involve me in any thefts but when Shorty gave those jewels from his heist to hold onto. I couldn't keep them so I put them in a box and sent them back to the owners"Danny replied. "Did Shorty ever know you return the jewels". "I guess not he told me to bury them in a certain area so he could pick them up after the cops searched his place, but the next day a friend told me Shorty got whacked"Danny replied. "I wonder what happened to those jewels?"Costa asked.

"You'll love this that necklace Sam put in your dressing room those were the jewels that Xavier and Robin were looking for. It was right under there noses and they didn't have a clue"Honey remarked. Everyone laughed JD even snorted a little which made everyone laugh more. After everyone caught their breath Danny stood up with a Manhattan in his hand. "To Criss Angel may he never see the inside of a jail cell unless for a illusion"he toasted. "And to family newly discovered family members, and to the ones who you thought you lost" Criss toasted giving Sandra a kiss. "Cheers"everyone called out as they drank.
