Rushful

     I was rushing back towards our apartment. I had just retrieved our next line of work. Oh, sorry, I was just rambling on wasn't I? Sorry 'bout that, the names Helilah and I kinda have a small problem. Literally. Well, enough about that I have a murder case on my hands! I had to get this case back towards our house, this would be able to pay off, at the least, the next 4 months bills and taxes! I rush towards the side of the house and begin to climb it. After a few minutes of climbing, I stand on the window sill and tap on the window hoping that Terra was there to open it for me. After a long time I begin to chuck small pieces of the window sill at the window. Finally Terra notices. I begin to yell,
"HEY CAN YOU LET ME IN PLEASE!?"
My other friend, Gamora,  says, "No." With her coffee in hand and with a tiredly stern voice she just completely pushes my plead to the side.
"WHY NOT!? I HAVE ANOTHER CASE FOR US TO SOLVE!"
"Because I don't feel like it."
I sigh and groan at the same time. Then Terra askes in her hard to ignore, adorable voice,
"Aren't you going to use the tiny door I installed all by myself?"
"Urk.....fine but only because you made it kid." I then pain stakingly climb down the wall from which I climbed up. On the way down I hear a loud thud that nearly made me loose my grip. I decide to focus on getting into the house. After doing more downward climbing, I finally reach the tiny door Terra installed for me. She even had a tiny note that said 'Just for you H.!'.
"Heh, cute." I enter through the door way and make my way towards the kitchen.
"Hey guys you ready for another case?" I hold up the envelope which held the information about the crime scene and victim.
"No." Gamora was getting more coffee when I came in.
"WELL TOO BAD!" I throw the envelope onto the coffee table. Gamora picks it up and reads it. It says: The victim was a young male in his early 20's. He was stabbed in the chest 9 times before death. A nail, that was covered in the victims blood, was found under his bed. They already have five suspects:
His wife
His boss
His sister
His assistance and
His maid. The nail wasn't of much help as it was fake and didn't have the suspects DNA on it.
"Not much to work on," Gamora says while drinking more coffee.
"But we'll get it done soon enough we always do."
"Yeah. Hey and also have you seen Syn?"
"No wh-" Terra cuts in and says,
"I'll go check their room for for you Helilah!" She speeds off into Syns room and comes back.
"She wasn't there."
"REALLY!? AGAIN!?" Gamora drinks more of her coffee.
"Seems like it to me." I sigh.
"Guess we'll have to go it alone, just me and you Gamora!" I manage to climb up to her shoulder and enthuiastically lean on her neck.
"Sure," she said swatting me to the ground.
"Could've just put me down," I muttered.
