EPOV

I heard Bella mumble something to herself after I closed the door. But, choosing to ignore it, I walked down the hall to my office. Sitting down at my desk, I ran my hands through my hair for the millionth time today. This case was stressing me out. I hadn't slept at all last night. My brain had refused to shut off. Everything that I knew about this case was going through my head, over and over in an endless loop. I sighed, running my hand trough my hair again, before turning to my computer. I hoped that I had something new from someone.

No Messages.

Damn it!

I stood, with file in hand, and walked to what we referred to as our 'camp fire' room. It was a large room in the middle of the Lab. The only things it held was a large lighted table, a few dry erase boards, and some cork boards on the back wall. This is where we would spread out all of the evidence and data that we had collected, get everyone together, and brain storm whenever we were stuck. Like now.

As I entered the room, I turned on the light, which illuminated the table as well. I walked over and set the file on the table, opening it up. I flipped through the file yet again, hoping that what I was looking for would just appear. The entire team knew that the two women that were found in the park, weren't killed there. We just had no idea where the original crime scene was. All we needed was that one crucial piece of evidence. Some kind of trace that would lead us somewhere. I walked around the table that was covered in everything that had been gathered, which wasn't much at this point. I was examining the cork-board wall covered in crime scene photos when I heard my little pixie of a sister bounce into the room.

"Morning Ace! Bagel?"

"Morning Alice. Thanks."

I took one of the bagels out of the bag she held out to me. Turning back to continue examining the photos, I took a bite of my bagel.

"God, how can you eat and look at these gruesome photos at the same time? It's almost inhuman."

I shrugged, indicating that it didn't bother me in the least.

"Tough gut, I guess."

"Oh, Emmett wants to see you down in autopsy. He's getting ready to examine the bodies."

"Thanks again Alice. Oh, and make sure Bella gets one of those bagels. I kinda ate half of hers earlier."

Alice's tinkling laughter followed me down the hallway until I entered the elevator. I leaned against the back wall of the elevator, closing my eyes and listening to Debussy flow through the speakers.

Thank god, for small miracles.

I loved that they played classical music in the elevators here. It helped to calm my anxiety a little bit.

The doors pinged open and I disembarked, walking towards the large double doors that led to our autopsy room. Pushing through, I heard the booming laughter of one of my best friends, Emmett.

"Hey, Em. How are you this morning?"

"Oh, hey dude. Give me a second."

I noticed that he was on the phone, probably with his wife Rosalie. It was hard to keep those two apart. He turned just as the doors opened again, revealing a rather harried looking Bella Swan. She looked over at me, a light blush covering her cheeks, before turning to our coroner.

"Sorry it took me so long, Emmett. Jessica has me running all over the place this morning."

"No problem, Bells. We're all here now so lets get started."

We all walked over to the autopsy tables as Emmett explained his preliminary findings.

"Well, from what I can tell at first glance, they were both tied up. Note the ligature marks around the wrists and ankles. Afterwards, they were both violently raped. Did a kit on both of them, and found nothing. No fluids, hairs, or anything else out of the ordinary."

"Condom?"

"No, I think they were penetrated by an object, like a pipe or something. I couldn't find a metal shavings inside the vic, the killer took their time cleaning the bodies afterwards, so really, it could have been any type of penetrating object. All I know is that both vics were sexual assaulted by something. Anyway, after they were violated, they were beaten before being asphyxiated. They were left on their backs for some time before being moved to the park. Hypostasis had already set in before the bodies were dumped."

He lifted up the first body, showing the blood pooled along her back. He set her back down and turned to Bella.

"Hey, Mike hasn't made it in yet. Do you mind washing these bodies off for me, so that I can do the internal exam?"

"Sure."

"Great, I need something to eat. Didn't Alice bring in bagels?"

"Sure did, Em. Let's go get one. Hey Bella, there's a bagel waiting for you in the lounge. I told Alice to bring you one but apparently you've been busy."

"Thanks."

Emmett and I left Bella in autopsy as we headed back upstairs.
