Gail hasn't seen Holly in a month. After the shooting Holly had to go to various cities in Canada and the United States for conferences, and to make lectures at some Universities and Hospitals. Gail didn't even get to say goodbye she just received a text from Holly the day she left explaining her absence for three weeks. Holly had returned to Toronto two days ago but she hasn't made any attempt in talking to her. Holly had stopped talking to Gail two and a half weeks ago. Last she heard Holly was heading to Quantico, Virginia to consult with the FBI on a murder case that she couldn't talk about.
"Hey Peck" Gail turned to see her brother standing in front of her holding a blue folder in his hand.
"I need you to take this over to Detective Callaghan and Agent Kelly, who are at the morgue with the two bodies we found."
"Uh yeah sure. Any special instructions?"
"Just tell them that we have more evidence that the two bodies we found are connected to Los Reyes and that we might have a possible site on where they are operating from."
"Okay. I'll get right on it."
"Oh and Gail I need you to stay with the bodies. Only the forensic Pathologist, Doctor Stewart, Agent Kelly and Detective Callaghan are allowed near the bodies unless instructed otherwise. Don't let those bodies out of your sight."
15 Division had started working with the FBI on the Los Reyes case, an international gang that import drugs and guns from Cuba to the United States and who have recently started dealing with El Toro, a local drug dealer in Toronto. The FBI have been following Los Reyes for 6 months now and are getting really close to busting them, that was until El Toro came into the picture. El Toro is known for his violent nature, he use to kill anyone and anything that got in his way. He has been MIA for a couple of years that is until the officers at 15 Division discovered the two bodies with El Toro's signature mark on the victims hands.
"Do you know the cause of death?" Luke was starting to get impatient.
"No not yet. It will take another hour"
"I don't get it. They have rope marks on their neck and they have the triangle burned into their palms. Wouldn't it be obvious that they were strangled? Can't you make it go faster"
"Yeah sure let me just do the entire autopsy in 10 min. No big deal I'll skip all the important stuff and just tell you that they suffocated that way I can get out of here faster."
"Detective Callaghan let the Doctor work" Agent Kelly said trying not laugh at Holly's witty remark.
It has only been an hour since the bodies arrived and Holly had to do the External examination before she could start with the Internal examination. She was getting kind of annoyed that Luke thought the autopsy process would be easy. Thankfully he had to take a call and stepped outside letting her continue in peace.
"So what do you know so far. Seeing as you're taking your sweet as time doing the autopsy"
"Shut up Alex" Holly retorted as she started to cut open victim number one. "I am doing a thorough examination so you guys could have the most accurate information on this case"
"I'm just kidding Hol. Explain to me, won't you, what exactly are you doing to this poor man."
"Ah, well right now I'm starting with the famous "Y-shaped" incision on his chest that you loved so much"
"Its been a while since we've done this. Just us two hanging out in your lab, you in that sexy lab coat and me in my cop uniform asking a lot of questions with answers that half of the time I didn't understand or didn't really care. I was just trying to get in your pants to be honest."
"Oh really? And you thought that annoying the crap out of me would do the job?"
"Yup. It was my master plan. To annoy you until the pants came off and it worked. Me always distracting you from your work and you getting mad at me." Alex had a slight blush on her cheeks reminiscing about the old times "and the kisses we would give each other every time you walked past me"
"You were the worst" Holly said as she made her way to the other side of the table. "I was always working 'till midnight because you would come to say 'Hi' to me which always turned into a make-out session not to mention when we really started dating and those innocent make-out sessions turned into fucking on Mike's office because back then I didn't have my own office. And I am one hundred percent sure he knew of our little "naps" on his couch"
"So do we have a cause of death yet?" Luke came into the room with an authoritative swagger.
"Seeing as it has only been 20 minutes since you left. No" Holly was trying to stay as professional as she could but this man was really getting on her nerves. Doesn't he have anything better to do than just criticize the speed at which she does her job?
"Hey Luke, Holly and I'm guessing you are Agent Kelly" Gail says as she joins the three of them in the lab. "I'm officer Gail Peck with 15 Division. Detective Peck sent me over with these files and to let you know that they have found more evidence connecting these two bodies with Los Reyes and that we might have a location on where they are hiding. Oh and I'll be keeping these two lovely men company, make sure they don't run away."
"FBI Special Agent Alex Kelly" Alex introduces her self while reaching to grab the folder Gail has in her hand seeing as Luke just took another call and stepped outside again. Alex looks the file over and has a confused look on her face "Shit. Thank you officer Peck. Hey Holly we're going to head out but I'll text you after shift okay?"
"Yeah sure. I'll see you tonight. Don't forget" Holly said giving Alex a knowing look. She's use to having Alex cancel on her or forget that's why she always texts her to remind her about their dates. "I won't" Alex winks at her before gathering her stuff to leave "and you" she looks at Gail "Don't lose those bodies" with that Alex left the two women alone.
