A half awake Jo was halfway there to the crime scene in New Jersey, when she started thinking about the dreams with Henry. When she first had them she was kind of embarrassed because they had only known each other less than a year and she had to work with him every day. But as she got know Henry more and began to love the things that use annoy her: the history lessons. But that was Henry as she laughed to herself thinking about all the useless facts she's knows because of him. It had been 2 years now as partners and the dreams were pretty much usual occurrence and every time in the dream it was getting somewhere they would always get interrupted.
Did she want to be more than friends with Henry? She thought and actually said loud in her Car "Yes, I do".
But she didn't want to push him and she was happy that she had his trust. He told her about his "curse" about being immortal….well she had to save him from a crazy woman and then he told her but still he didn't have to tell her as she laughed to herself thinking about that.
Jo finally arrived at the crime scene location and came upon a converted red barn that had been turned into a warehouse. She saw CSU taking bags of what it looked like to dead snakes to a van. Jo then headed inside the warehouse and saw that the whole warehouse was filled with snakes in clear cases.
Then, Jo saw a guy kneeling next to one of cases with half of a body near him. As she walking towards him she saw the back of his head with dark brown same cut as…" WAIT! IT CAN'T BE" she thought.
Jo continued to walk towards the guy and thought "same kind of jacket he wears but she thought how he could be here?" she thought and she knew Lt. Reece wouldn't call him.
When Jo finally got face to face with the guy, it was not her Henry but he did have some of same facial features of Henry and she swore he could be his long lost cousin she thought with surprised look on her face.
Jo snapped out of her thoughts when she heard him talking, "Hi, you must be Detective Jo Martinez, I've heard of a lot good things about you as he stood up and held his hand out for a handshake and I'm Detective Frank Miller." Miller said.
"From the surprised look on your face when you first saw me, I hope I didn't scare you Detective" Miller laughed
Jo laughed as she shook his hand and said "Oh no, you didn't, you just reminded me of someone".
Jo thought "Get it together Martinez, Doctor Boy has taken over your mind"
"Well Detective, Did you know 1 to every 1,000 people have some similar DNA make up which is a very small number when you think there are billions of us living here on Earth" Miller said with a smile
Jo thought "OH GOD…OH GOD, HE DOES IT TOO. HE'S TELLING ME RANDOM FACTS."
"Calm down, Martinez" she thought as she took a deep breath and thought "Well the only difference is the accents and the Jersey accent doesn't sound as charming as the British accent"
"Anyway, let's get to the reason I requested you here" Miller said as he knelt down and pointed to the half body that was mutilated by the snakes.
" We are calling him the New Jersey Snake Butcher because we know he's from this area from anonymous tips we have gotten so far and that he chops his victims up and feeds them to the snakes" Miller said in a serious tone.
"Oh, alright but what's the New York connection?" Jo said kind of curious tone.
"From all the dead snakes here, we know he does the feeding here but we are pretty sure he kills his victims and tortures them in somewhere in NYC" Miller said in a confident tone.
"I'll let my Medical Examiner go over the body and some of the snakes and see if he can help pin point a certain location by his findings" Miller said as he stood up
"If you want I can have my M.E. look over some of the things and see if can find the location of the torture and killings" Jo said as she was kind of dying inside hoping Henry can work this case.
"Thanks for the offer detective but I rather have my M.E. just look at it" Miller said in a firm tone
"I understand" Jo said kind of disappointed but she knew it was a long shot anyway because it wasn't her case and it's not in her state so she knew she had to follow their rules.
Miller pulled out his card and said "If you need anything just call my number and if I find anything out today, I'll come by your precinct" as Miller smiled as he handed Jo his card.
Jo smiled and said "Great, I'll see you then"
Jo noticed with his jacket now open that the man had similar clothing taste as Henry. She thought to herself "Wow, this is going to be kind of weird working with a look-a like Henry"
"Great till then, Detective" Miller said.
