*Michael upon noticing the odd stench, on what would be a rare patrol for the Homicide detective, He would investigate. His instincts seeming to draw him towards the stench*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:02:32 AM)
Behind a dumpster about halfway down the alley, you will find a partially decomposing body. The hair is longish and looks to be light in color, but the lack of light bleeds most of the colors into greys, whites and blacks. The body is sitting propped up against the wall of the building, legs stretched out in front. It is naked, but there is some sort of rope coiled in it's lap.
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:08:08 AM)
*He would move slowly towards the body now looking around and figure out what sort of dirction the assailent came from*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:08:30 AM)
As he gets closer, he'll see that the hands seem to be holding the rope, cupping it as if offering it up for someone to see. The face seems to be posed in an obscene fascimile of a seductive smile that just seems wrong on a dead body.
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:10:46 AM)
*He would pull out his led light and look over the body and the surounding area.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:14:53 AM)
When his light hits the body, he'll see that the 'rope' is actually the person's intestines. The body has been drawn and quartered. The hair is actually blonde, and the features look to be that of a woman in her mid 20s. The bone structure of the feet supports this. Her hands are indeed holding her innards, and it does not look as if there are any other marks on the body. However, from the ripe smell, it has been here for several days. Part of her abdomen writhes and squirms before squeaking at the sudden light. Finally, a smallish rat peeks its head out of the pile of her intestines, then clambers out and scurries off.
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:16:38 AM)
*Michael would look around the body for a moment or two making sure nothing that would incriminate his kind and if he found nothing he would lookcall it in.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:17:29 AM)
((no, there's nothing there that indicates it's from elohim))

SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:30:25 AM)
Looking closely around the body, he will see a fresh white calla lily laying on the ground beside her hip, in the space between the body and the dumpster. There is also what looks like part of a shoeprint in the mud between her legs and, when his flashlight passes over her face again, there is some sort of oily residue on her forehead over her left eye. About ten feet away would be another partial footprint.
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:34:00 AM)
*Not having the tools to figure out more then that he cordens the area off curious as to what this might mean.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:37:29 AM)
After about another 30 minutes, the first patrol car pulls up and two uniforms get out, maglights flashing down the alleyway to illuminate Michael. They bob as they two officers walk down the alley, but stop on the far side of the dumpster. The older of the pair steps up beside Michael and shines his light down at the body while the obvious rookie pulls out a notepad and starts writing the second the older starts to speak. "When did you find it?"
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:38:15 AM)
About 15 minutes ago i wanted to make sure it wasn't tampered with before I called it in.
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:41:22 AM)
The older man (his name plate reads Carroll) nods, his light doing a slow travel over the body. "Alright. Melvin, head to the car and get the tape. We get to cool our heels until the techs get here, but I dun' want anyone walking through it." Turning back to Michael, he peers at him. "Might wanna go sit at the car and get comfortable. We're gonna be here a while."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:43:04 AM)
Yup...I know the deal i've been to a few of these...though I think this is only the 3rd i've been the first to...*he turns and heads for the car leaning against it. He pulls out a cigarillo and lights it with his zippo.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:45:31 AM)
The area is suddenly flooded with light as the spotlight on the car is angled towards the alleyway. Melvin walks back over and starts to tie off the tape, slowly walking it around the zone, making sure there is at least a 40-foot stretch between the body and the tape. Carroll joins Michael at the car and lights his own PallMall, taking a huge lungfull before exhaling slowly. "It doesn't matter if it's the first or the 51st. Seeing shit like that just pisses me off."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:50:05 AM)
I think the anger just gets in the way...I was in the war, this...kind of thing isn't really that surprising to me any more...What people do here is very similar if singular to what happened out there. Don't get me wrong it does make me sick...but...We'll get them. Officer Carroll, I promise.
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:52:13 AM)
The uniformed shoulders shrug. "I know the deal." He sucks in another lungfull, blowing it out in a thick, white stream. "I also know that THAT was no standard mugging. I'm no hotshot detective, but even I can figure out that." The last is said with a tinge of bitterness, but he just sticks the butt of his cigarette back into his mouth and chews on it for a little bit.
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 1:53:11 AM)
No, you're right...looks...almost religious or in the least serial, but it's way to easy to tell now...Forensics will be able to give us more when they get here.
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 1:57:33 AM)
Lights flash on the bricked walls that border the alleyway and Carroll looks over, tossing his butt down and grinding it out with his booted foot. "Speaking of..." As they watch, the doors of the white panel van open, and two people in blue jumpsuits hop out, one obviously male, the other a slender-ish woman. One reaches back into the van and hands a large box to the other, then retrieves a smaller box for himself. They pass the nose of the patrol car, spy the uniformed officer and Michael, and veer over to them for a moment. The female glances down the alleyway, then back at the duo. "How many have been inside the scene?"
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:05:08 AM)
Only me. *he says plainly watching the Asker.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:06:06 AM)
She eyes him, then turns to the man. "Get samples for comparison. I'll start with the body." The man nods and walks over to Michael, his expression vaguely apologetic. "Please, don't think that we suspect you of anything. We just want to know what's yours and what's not."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:07:02 AM)
I didn't touch the scene, but you might find my footprints, but take what you need, I'm not hiding anything. *he smiles*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:10:50 AM)
He smiles in return, a small twinkle in his eye before he hears the uniform cop clearing his throat pointedly, causing the other man to hurriedly look away and then crouching down to open his case. Pulling out several jars, he starts to mixing something together that turns into some pink goo. After lifting the stirring stick to test consistancy, he looks up at Michael. "Please lift your left foot?"
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:12:23 AM)
*He does as he's asked chuckling lightly still puffing on his cigarillo.*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:14:06 AM)
Smearing the pink stuff all over the sole of Michael's shoe, he waits for a few heartbeats, then gently peels it off, revealing a complete latex imprint of Michael's left sole. He repeats the same thing with the right, sealing each of them in seperate evidence bags before standing up with a long-stemmed q-tip and more little bags. "Open your mouth please?"
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:16:46 AM)
*He pulls the waning butt of his ciggarillo from his mouth and opens it waiting patiently*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:19:45 AM)
Swirling the q-tip around against the insides of Michael's cheeks before turning it, tip first, into a long, thin envelope, he then reaches over with a small pair of scissors and snips a few strangs of hair. Once the collection process is complete, he tucks everything into his box and again smiles at Michael before nodding to Carroll and walking over to the tape, lifting it over his head as he joins his partner at the body. Less than a minute after he gets there, he scrambles away from the body and to the far side of the taped-off area. Sounds of retching echo up and down the alleyway, causing Carroll to snicker faintly. "Must still be new..."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:20:43 AM)
*Michael chuckles as well* He...looked so confident a minute ago...
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:21:38 AM)
Carroll glances over at him, pulling out another cigarette and lighting it. "Yeah, cuz you're alive..."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:22:30 AM)
Oh, i spose thats true...
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:25:04 AM)
((gonna fastforward here a bit, because it's pretty standard things for them to gather evidence and call the ME to haul away the body...))
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:26:28 AM)
((k))
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:27:13 AM)
When the ME wheels the body out of the alleyway, and the techs pack everything up to take back to the lab, Carroll turns to Michael and holds the car door open. "No offense, but we gotta run you back to the precinct for your statement. I'm sure the guys in Homicide will want a word or two with you..."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:28:20 AM)
Sure..*he obligius*
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:29:24 AM)
*He smiles and mentions his name* I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Detective Michael Price.
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:31:54 AM)
Carroll does a slow blink at him before nodding. "Well, that certainly explains your attitude about it--" *jerking his head in the direction of the scene* "--but they'll still want to talk with you about it. You want a ride or is your car around nearby?"
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:32:44 AM)
Yeah my car is nearby, You thought i was some sort of morbid sicko? *he chuckles lightly, suddenly understanding*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:33:30 AM)
Carroll chuckles faintly. "Either that or you were the guy and were hanging around because of some sick fantasy." He shrugs. "Go ahead and get your car. I'll radio it in and tell them you'll be there shortly."
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:35:17 AM)
Yeah...thats not righ...*he frowns*
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:36:07 AM)
((and that's pretty much it... just make sure you BB if you're going to with-hold anything in your report :) ))
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:36:51 AM)
((lol, that was awesome thanks!))
SerenePrincess (May 20, 2011 2:37:37 AM)
((and thank you... great job... i look forward to having this expand, so FPM me if you want to know anything further))
Michael Price (May 20, 2011 2:37:50 AM)
