Hey guys! So this concept came to me in a dream, and so I had to pen it down before I would lose it! Haha. I know I already have another story in line, but don't worry - I'll manage my updates. :)

So the valentine one shot is now a story, and the first part was just the first chapter. :) more will be explained in this chapter. :D happy reading and let me know your thoughts once again! It always gives me the motivation to write more haha :) xx

This is my first attempt at writing a crime case, so obviously there'll be a lot of loopholes haha, cause I don't really know anything of crime, or India's government. So please forgive all the technical mistakes!

And about PM's: I usually just PM all the ppl that are on my buddy list, so if you haven't sent me a buddy request, please do so you can get all the latest updates, or mention that you'd like me to add you in my buddy list, so I can do that for you. :) xx

February 15^th, 2014

The sun rose into the early morning sky, illuminating the Earth and all its inhabitants with its presence. Wet dew settled into the green, leafy plants of many backyards in New Delhi, and the sweet melody of chirping music from the birds resonated through vast neighbourhoods throughout the city. Everything was peaceful, so serene, the air full of tranquility and love.

And in one single flash of a moment, everything that shone so bright with optimism and positivity around her turned into darkness, enveloping her into a black hole of nothing but emptiness for her soul.

And just like that, she was gone. To never return ever again.

* * *

That afternoon:

In another part of New Delhi, life was as speedy as a bullet train in Japan. All of the ETF team travelled to Delhi, pursuing reports that the elusive Firstborn had surfaced. They had been there for a week now, trying to make sense of this case, and solve it as soon as they could. They uncovered a conspiracy to hide the trail of bodies left by a menacing killer who gruesomely dismembered his victims. His motive? Punishing treason against the Commonwealth.

Everyone was hustling and bustling away, working away at the temporary ETF head office headquarters base the team had made to operate stealthily. Reports being filed, blood traces being found, new gadgets being made for the better efficiency of the team. It was up to the highly skilled, hard-working, and dedicated team of ETF to save the day.

Ayesha, Liza, Shree, and Chotu were all in the dimly lit lab of the subterranean levels of the base. Sameer was also present - he had a phone pressed to his ear, and was conversing with DIG sir over the report that Sakshi had just gave him last night before dozing off.

Nearby, the rest of the team pored over photos, witness reports, and databases. From his terminal, Shree watched Sameer grimace.

"Uh-oh, Lagta hai Rathore sir ka DIG sir ke saath daily report kuch achha nahi chal ra. Tujhe kya lagta hai Chotu? Kya baatein kar rahe honge?" Shree looked to the man sitting beside her, but Chotu was staring blankly ahead, deep in thought.

"Chotu?"

"Huh? Sorry, what?" He answered.

"Abhe kya soch rah hai yaar?" Shree questioned, as he was deep in thought.

And just like that, a small worried smirk played on Chotu's lips. "Are mein humare kal ki prank ke bare mein soch raha tha."

Shree tilted his head in confusion, not sure what he was talking about. Prank? Kal konsa prank khela tha humne?

Chotu read the confusion on his face, and answered, "Are woh rose wala prank! Yaad hai, humne woh red wala rose daal diya tha Sakshi ke cutting chai and sorry wala note ke saath Arjun sir ke desk par? Bichari, she must've had a mouthful from sir."

Shree mused, finally getting where Chotu was coming from. "Haan yaar, kitna chilaya hoga na Sakshi par kal."

"Wahi toh. Khair, jab mein unke cabin mein gaya nah, to wo phool dustbin mein nahi tha!"

"Matlab.. tu wahi soch raha hai, jo mein soch raha hoon? Kya humara shaq sahi nikla kya?" Shree questioned, the pupils of his eyes dilating wide in shock.

"Shayad. Humne toh socha tha ki woh bhadak jaayenge, pehli baar ki tara."

"Chotu, Chotu, Chotu. Mera bheem." He teased with a smile, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Ab sab kuch badal gaya hai yaar. Ever since the bomb blast, Arjun sir has turned over a new leaf. He's less authoritative, and more lenient towards us. I think he cares about us now. And by us, I mean more of.." He told him, trailing off his sentence for Chotu to finish.

"Sakshi" They both said, with their usual hinting gestures and mannerisms.

"To tu yeh kehna chahta hai ki arjun sir ne ya to wo phool apne paas rakh liya, ya sakshi ko de diya hoga." Chotu inferred.

"Pata lagana hoga. Vaise, kahaan reh gayee yeh sakshi madam aaj? Kal dekha na kitna bhadak gaya tha Arjun sir jab who late aayi?"

"haan yaar Chotu. Aur aaj to bahut hi zyaada late ho gaya hai. Uski to khair nahi."

Ayesha and Liza peered over at Shree and Chotu as they whispered into each other's ears like high school gossip girls.

"Ab in dono mein kya gussar pussar chal raha hai?" Liza questioned, particularly eyeing Shree with a keen eye.

"I don't know. Probably just the usual." She suggested, who knows what they were up to this time. Boys.

Sameer continued to talk about the case, when Arjun stormed into the lab, barking into his phone.

"Achha? Kya Miss Dipti bhi sorry hain to be impeding a national investigation?!"

"Leken shayad unse kuch ugal wana utna asaan nahi hoga jitna ki hum soch rahe the," Sameer commented to DIG sir on the other line, upon hearing Arjun's outburst.

"Dekho Rathode, kuch bhi karo. Our pursuit of the Firstborn is completely dependent on foreign provinces allowing us on their soil... Aur Crown ki good books mein hamara waqt nikal ta jaa raha hai. Good luck."

Sameer hung up and turned to Arjun just as he hanged up as well. The rest of the team put on their serious faces and awaited the news.

Arjun spoke first upon being questioned by Ayesha. "They're unbelievable. Koi secretary tha, just kept repeating the same crap about Dipti being unavailable. Woh aaj rat uss circus mein jaa rahi hai."

"The diamond jubilee? That's not a circus, sir. Ek bahut hi huge party hai palace mein, celebrating the Minister's 30^th anniversary on the chair." Shree informed him.

"Dipti ji bhi aa ri hai? Amar Vimal's office ne mujhe inform kiya hai ki woh bhi vahi par hoga." Ayesha added.

Arjun went on to explain the case details and converse the issues with his teammates. But alas, they had come to a dead end.

"Toh ab hum kya kare? Kal tak intezaar?" Chotu questioned and wondered aloud.

"Nahi. There's no time. We know ki khooni has something to do with the anti-crime legislation, so kal subah tak, khooni ki plans shayad already realized ho jaayenge." Rathore told them all, upset with a long face.

"Phir toh ek hi raasta bacha hai." Arjun declared.

And Ayesha knew exactly what Arjun was hinting at, like always. "Looks like we're heading to that party." But then, she thought of one person who was missing. The conversation had been so serious, no wonder something was gone aloof. "Ek minute, Sakshi kahan hai?"

Arjun's eyes suddenly wandered around the lab, and noticed that indeed Ayesha was right. She wasn't here. Then again, he mentally chuckled in his mind. Kal raat ko bahut der so soyi hai, the memory of his semi heart-to-heart with a sleeping beauty' Sakshi arose in his mind, and he smiled.

"Koi baat nahi Ayesha. Aa jaayegi. Vaise bhi bahot der raat tak kaam kar rahi thi."

Ayesha's pupils grew wide at his reply, and Shree's and Chotu's eyes almost jumped out of its sockets. They looked at each other with the look that would suggest chemistry' between Arjun and Sakshi.

"Sir... aap ko kaise pata ki Sakshi der raat tak kaam kar rahi hogi?" Ayesha slowly and cautiously questioned his calm response to Sakshi's tardiness.She knew that Sakshi loved Arjun with all her heart, and somewhere deep inside, she knew that Arjun returned his feelings too. Something was stopping him though.

Arjun was suddenly at a loss for words. What would he say? That he actually went to the lounge to check up on her and then subtly wished her Happy Valentine's Day? No. HELL NO. He stammered as he struggled to think of a good excuse, "uh, wo-woh kya hai na, ki Sak-Sakshi - "

"Oh my gosh guys, I am SUPER DUPER sorry I'm late. I was working on the report really late last night, and then somehow my alarm clock didn't go off, and then - "

Arjun interrupted her incessant and unnecessary blabbering, "It's okay Sakshi, leave it. You're already late, just sit down chup chaap se so we can get on with it." He told her in his usual rude manner.

It was now Sakshi's turn for her pupils to grow wide-eyed. She couldn't believe her ears! Was she actually hearing this right? Did Arjun JUST not scold her harshly for coming late? Yesterday, he was like mr. ultimatum I'll fire you, and now a "it's okay?"

Flashback (Yesterday morning - February 14, 2014 - 11:20 AM)

Sakshi hastily barged into the conference room, where all eyes were suddenly on her as she entered.

Of course, Arjun was the first one to make a remark on her tardiness. He always just needed an excuse to yell at her, or so Sakshi thought.

"Glad you could grace us with your presence, Ms. Sakshi Anand. May I have the pleasure of asking what took you so long to get here?" He said with utmost sarcasm and dry humour.

Sakshi knew he was trying to get under his skin... again. So she played it cool just like any other day.

She walked in closer to her seat which was near Arjun's, and answered, "woh kya hai naa Arjun, ki mein aaj subha kuch dhoond rahi thi, leken woh cheez mil hi nahi rahi thi! Bahut dhoondha maine," she said with a teasing voice.

Arjun was now very aggravated with her defiance, and angrily stood up from his seat to furiously stare at her. "What." He seethed out with utmost fury.

Sakshi sent another playful smile her away - giggling like an innocent child. "Aapki muskurahat ACP sahab, aur kya?"

Arjun profusely rolled his eyes angrily, his hands balled up into fists of fury.

"Aur vaise bhi, aaj toh there's more reason to smile! Kyunki aaj Valentine's Day hai. The feeling of love is in the air! Tee-hee."

Not able to take it anymore, and haunted by Roshni's memories of Valentine's day, he furiously slammed his hand on the conference room table, shocking Sakshi to the core. She knew Arjun was boiling up inside with remorse and hurt of his past, traumatized by Roshni's tragic death, but she had no idea that it was this bad. The way he stormed was even worse than the time he was all worked up on her birthday day.

"THAT'S IT SAKSHI!!!!!" He yelled at the top of his lungs, as he came dangerously close to her, his stone black eyes boring into her innocent, frightened doe-like chocolate-brown eyes. "One more word from you, and I WON'T HESITATE to write up your resignation letter for you!!!"

Sakshi fearfully jolted from his outburst, and quietly sat down in her seat.

End of Flashback

While Sakshi and Arjun had an innocent eyelock between them that said it all, Shree whispered closely into Chotu's ear, "abhe yaar ab to mera shaq yakeen mein badal raha hai. Kuch toh choot raha hai..." he said to Chotu, whispering the last part in mimicry of Arjun's andaaz.

"Shree! Chotu!" Sameer scolded upon hearing their clearly inaudible whispers, "yeh kya laga ke rakha hai! Subah se dekh raha hoon, apne hi baaton mein ulje ho. Agar itni hi concentration iss case ki teqikaad mein daalogay, tho shayad yeh case jaldi solve ho jaaye."

Sameer's harsh scolding immediately shut the duo up, and Liza slightly silently giggled upon seeing Shree's baffled state.

In response, Shree grumbled and stuck his tongue out at Liza, miffed at her.

Okay I'm just gonna stop right there, hopefully you guys liked it! Next chapter, I'll get into the case more, so you'll get to see the fine capabilities and skills our ETF team has and what they can do :D

Don't forget to comment! :D I love getting to know what you all think! :)
