Chapter 9 Implosion

The second he arrived at Aj's house, Roman wished he could unsee what he had, he just managed to keep the vomit down, bits and peices of flesh was strewn everywhere, everywhere he looked was another peice of anger from this Angel of Death. There were two things he noticed straight away, the black angel wings painted on the wall, and the fact that despite all the gore of mutilated body parts, there was no blood. He assumed that the Angel had cleaned up, but decided not to clean anything else, like the fact that Aj had voided his bowels, the only thing that should of made the violence depicted more gory, was taken away. It was like the Angel didn't like blood. Roman strode up to his partner, the younger man looking around, trying to find a clue as to why Aj was killed.

"Something missing Ambrose?"

Dean didn't bother looking around, "First thing I noticed, where's all the blood?"

"It looks like it was cleaned but nothing indicates that, theres no bleach or other cleaning chemicals"

"No mop marks either, but there are swishes in the floor" Dean pointed with his finger, "What could clean like that without leaving evidence?"

Roman looked at it, the more he did the more he didn't like what he was thinking, "We're thinkin about this the wrong way Dean, maybe it wasn't a human that cleaned up, think about it there was alot of blood and not a spec of it remains"

"You're thinkin that the Angel has a dog or somethin?"

"Not a dog, a wolf"

Dean shook his head, he didn't like the fact that this was pointing more and more at Raven, but he had to admit that Roman had a good point, the marks left behind on the floor looked exactly like an animal had lapped up all the blood.

"I suppose we have to go and see Raven"

Dean gave him a look, "It's a bad move Roman"

"What is?"

"Gettin involved with a Michales, trust me I know"

"I'm merely asking about a murder that she may have commited, nothing more"

"You like her, I can see it on your face"

Roman said nothing, he wanted to deny but Dean was right, there was something about Raven he liked, he didn't want too but something was drawing him to her like a moth to a flame. Yet seeing the look on Dean's face, the man knew what he was talking about when he said not to get involved, and yet Roman knew he wasn't gonna listen, he was far too drawn in by Raven to listen. The conversation halted which pleased Roman, Dean was busy taking his phone call to lecture Roman any further on the dangers of Raven Michales.

When he was done, that grave look was back, "Well according to Dana, the explosion at the docks is connected to this shit, they found the Mayor under the ruble, he was killed before the explosion, so unfortunately we now have a serial killer on the loose." Dean ran a hand through his shaggy blonde locks, "The press is gonna have a field day with this, and if we don't catch this killer soon, the whole city is gonna be in an uproar"

Roman didn't need to be told twice, he had to put an end to the Angels reign of terror, and he knew he had to start with Raven and her wolf.

The second he walked out of the hell that was Aj's death, the reporters had all ready flocked in, snapping their cameras and asking their unhelpful questions, just seeing them, he knew that this job just got a million times harder.
