Prologue
April 27th, 1994 2:30 pm
I Judas by Grave plays in the background. /I
Two young men are outside of the Bank One in Philadelphia. Both of them are wearing black hoodies and black jeans. The first one is slightly younger than the other man who looks like he's in his early 20s. The younger man places the hood over his head. He steps up to the door and places a gloved hand on the knob. With his other hand he fondles the 8mm tucked away inside of his jacket. He turns to the other guy.
"Ready, Brandon?" The younger man asked.
"Of course. Let's descend this place." Brandon smiled at the younger man.
The younger man took a deep breath, and then exhaled. "Hurry up, Daniel!" Brandon growled.
Daniel opened the door to the bank. Him and Brandon walked in, guns readied at the tellers.
"Nobody move! Put your hands in the air!" Daniel yelled at the people inside.
There was panic inside of the bank as Daniel and Brandon proceeded to rob the place.

Outside of the bank Daniel was sprawled faced down on the cold concrete floor. A pool of blood was congealed around him, and there were streaks of blood leading from the vault to where he finally gave up the ghost. Clutched in his right hand was a sheet of paper.
Another day, another victim, and another case unsolved. Detective Ryan Markus sighed as he carried another box down into the room, and placed it in an empty slot. Written on the box was the name Cartland D. April 27th, 1994.
The kid had been shot during a bank robbery, but nobody could figure out who had shot him. Oh well, another case of many waiting to be solved.
