Bosco was in the car waiting for Reme to come out, when she did he just smiled and watched her get in. He knew that his life was about to change and he was really hoping it was for the better because lately it really sucked. Reme couldn't help but smile at Bosco as she got into the truck. "What?" She said to him. He wanted to say, "Do you know you're absolutely gorgeous", but refrained and just said, "nothing sorry." "So is everything okay?," He said "Couldn't be better," she said and at that exact moment her cell went off.
"Reme," she answered, " Hey Davenport what's up?" As she listened, Bosco proceeded to drive but then realized he had no idea where he was going and then he heard Reme say, " 41st and Madison" and winked at Bosco who smiled at her and headed to the FBI building. When they got there, Reme told him to got to the private entrance and pointed where. When they got into the building, Reme had a personal entrance way and elevator that lead her to where she needed to go with security out the ass.
"I made sure that after 9/11, the security in this building rivaled if not beat that of Fort Knox!!", smiling at Bosco. They were met by Davenport who had an I.D. card for Bosco, "Here if you need to get in this card gives you special access as per order of Reme but first we need an eye scan, hand print and voice recognition, it will only take a couple of minutes." "Go, Davenport will bring you to my office when your done and I promise it doesn't hurt," she said laughing. Bosco smiled at her and said " Ha Ha funny instead of a Fed you should of thought about stand-up." He retorted with a laugh. "Ouch" she said laughing, "I'll see you in a bit." With that she disappeared and Davenport took Bosco to a room with a whole bunch of shit that he had no idea what it was but just looked really complicated. "Okay sit there and place your head in the center of that screen." He did so and a bright light came across and a quick flash an instant later. "Okay that's it", a voice said, "State your full name please." "Maurice Boscorelli" "Okay Mr. Boscerelli, have a seat over there and place your hand on the screen. He did and then said, "Um it's Officer Maurice Boscorelli." "Yes we know sir, please don't move, thank you." A minute later, the voice said, "Thank you Mr. Boscorelli that will be all." "It's officer Maurice Boscerelli!" "Yes of course sir," the voice said. "Jag-off" Bosco mumbled to himself. Davenport waited for him till he was done and retrieved Bosco once he was through. "Over here Officer Boscorelli!!" Davenport said. "Yeah", Bosco said and followed Davenport into an elevator. Davenport hit a series of numbers then slide a card through a scanner and a screen pooped out and requested an access code and eye, hand ID and voice confirmation. "Whoa", Bosco thought, "She wasn't kidding" When Davenport was through the elevator started to move. They stood in silence pretty much the whole time until about the very end. Davenport couldn't have planned it better but just as they reached there destination he turned to Bosco and in his face said, "Do not hurt her, you have no idea what she's been through. She is my best friend and if you so much as look at her the wrong way, I'll destroy you. Got me!!!!" Davenport glared at Bosco. Bosco said as honestly as he could muster without punching this jag-offs lights out. "I've got no intentions on hurting her, I give you my word I will never hurt her and don't ever threaten me again!!!" Bosco growled to Davenport who couldn't help but smile and the young officer's vehemence to stand his ground. "Just as long as we understand each other", Davenport said with a smile and a nod. Just then the doors opened. They both stepped out at Davenport headed for two glass doors and went through, Bosco following behind absorbing his surroundings. "Damn now this is what we need," Bosco said. "God this is like the Plaza!!!" Davenport stopped in front of a huge desk and talked to the man behind the desk and the young man shook his head and said, "Yes go in she's expecting you two." And nodded for both of them to enter.
They walked into her office and Reme was on the phone and saw them and put her hand up to signal to give her one minute and to sit. "Yes, Marty I understand..No not yet..In about an hour or so..I plan on it..you know me..yes goodbye." "Sorry about but that was my boss, so how did it go? Did you two play nice?", she said with a smile. "Of course", Davenport with a chuckle and looked at Bosco, who nodded at Davenport. Even though he had pissed off Bosco because he got in his face, he knew why he did. It was like between him and Faith, he would have done the same thing for her. And he felt how much Davenport meant what he said and that impressed Bosco, you had to respect the guy and Bosco felt himself starting too. "Okay, here's the deal", Reme said getting up from her desk and walking around to sit on the edge of it so to face both men in her office. "I've talked to the M.E. and CSI, and everything they have told me is consistent with the previous murders, the victims haven't been identified yet but as soon as the M.E.'s office does they will alert me but I have this sneaking suspicion that they are consistent with 'The Dicers' previous choices. So I had Gregory put together a slide show of all the cases so we could brainstorm and after in about an hour or so we have to head to Jersey to Teterboro to pick my team. And then we'll head over to the murder scene and see if I am as good as everyone thinks I am and check out my hunch." "Sounds like a plan", Bosco said staring at Reme. "Okay, then lets go into the meeting hall, its right through there." Reme pointed to the huge black double doors at the end of her office. Davenport lead the way for Bosco and heard Reme, "Gregory is the presentation ready in the hall.Yes, Deputy Director. Everything you asked for is ready and waiting for you.Thanks Gregory. Hold all calls until I tell you otherwise usual procedure..Yes Deputy Director...Thanks again Gregory." And Reme proceeded into the hall.
"Okay, Davenport you can do the honors since I got to do it last time", Reme said playfully. Davenport gave her a look that said "screw you". She laughed and told to Bosco to sit down wherever. This hall was exactly that, it was huge, Bosco thought to himself. He sat right next to Reme and she smiled at him when he did. "Okay, these pictures are kinda graphic so Boscorelli let us know if you need to stop, we've seen these already so we know what to expect, okay." Davenport said. "Yeah I understand, I will" And with that Davenport began.
"God, so this guy did all these murders in D.C. then stopped just as you began and now decided to start again out of nowhere, this is just creepy as all shit pardon my French," Bosco said shaking his head. "Well this is our job, we deal with the complete freaks and creeps and well this is one is definitely at the top", Davenport said. "So beside the obvious ,Bosco, that this guy is a sick fuck, what else do you see?' Reme asked. "Well, you said there is no sign of sexual mutilation or activity so it's not about sex with this guy, it goes deeper then that it's like he is really pissed and these murders are his way of getting rid of his anger." Bosco said. "Good", Reme said, "what else?" "Did the M.E. say that where he dumped the bodies was the site of the actual murders?" "Yes, it was done there" "Well who in there right mind would go to an abandoned wherehouse with a complete stranger unless he knew him or maybe for drugs, you said there where drugs found in there system right?" Reme nodded smiling because Bosco was heading in the right direction. "Okay, so these people either trusted this guy to go with them willingly because one of the victims as you told me was very athletically built and most definitely would have given the assailant a fight but there were no signs of struggle from either victims any victims for that matter, so we're looking for a man who is roughly about 30-45 years of age, athletic, good- looking, well educated, and is into the drug scene but most likely does not do them himself probably deals but only to certain clientele." Reme smiled at Bosco then looked at Davenport and said, "What did I tell you?" and looked back at Bosco. "What...what did I miss?" Saying dumbfounded. "Nothing you just figured everything we have so far that I put together the first day I was shown these pictures." "Almost word for word, too" Davenport said. "I'm impressed' Davenport said a little shocked. "Are you serious?' Bosco said with a smile leaning back staring at Reme. "Yeah but don't get on your high horse, I told you were a good cop and all you need is to be pushed, and that's what I did." Reme said.
She looked at the time, "Alright, well it's time to head to pick up Philips!" She spoke into the phone, "Gregory! "Yes Deputy Director" "We are leaving to pick up Philips, any messages?" "Yes ma'am..Mr. Rumsfeld called and General Lacy as well and also Mr. Rapp called." Davenport's head shot up and looked at Reme whose face just stayed expressionless except for the fact that her eyes were closed. Bosco had been staring at her the whole time he couldn't help it she was beautiful, but when she saw her reaction to the name, he had a gut feeling it wasn't good. "Reme, are you alright...Dakota, hey you okay?" Davenport said concerned for his friends heading towards her placing his hand on her shoulder. The contact brought her back from where she was and she nodded and shot up and said, "Fine, why wouldn't I be..Thanks Gregory forward any calls to my cell!" "Yes Deputy Director, the messages are on your desk" "Thanks Gregory." She looked at Bosco, who had a look of concern and confusion. "You ready?" Looking at Bosco. "Yeah, you okay?" He asked. With a smile she replied, "I'm fine" "Okay, you guys head down to the trucks, I'll be a minute." She looked at Davenport who eyes have never left Reme. She looked at him took his hand and said, " Kevin, I'm fine really", she said to Davenport and nodded. "Are you sure?" "Yes, now go, I'll meet you there." "Okay let's go Officer Boscerelli" Bosco got up and said "Yeah one sec", and headed into Reme's office following her. "Reme, are you okay seriously?" Bosco asked. She turned and before she had a chance to realize what she was about to do, she embraced him. At first Bosco was shocked but melted into what had to be perfection. "This feels right", he thought, "She feels like home" Reme pushed herself away but kept close contact to Bosco looking into his eyes and whispered, "I will be, thanks for caring." Bosco looked at her.god how he wanted to kiss her but he knew that this was something he needed to wait for her to show that she wanted it. "Sure", he said placing his forehead on hers. "Now go, I'll see you in a minute." She reiterated to him. He smiled and let go, "Okay I'll see you down there." Bosco left and found Davenport and entered the elevator. As they started their descent, Bosco wanted to ask Davenport who this guy Rapp was and why it affected Reme like that. "Go ahead ask me, you know you want to!" Davenport said without facing Bosco.
Reme stared at the message that he called. "Oh God Mitch.you always had perfect timing" She said sarcastically. "What could you possibly want?" Dakota and Mitch haven't spoken for at least 6 months and their conversations never ended good, he always begged for her to reconsider and her always saying no, that their time for reconciliation was long since gone but she still loved him how could she not. They were together for a decade. The Angel of Death and the Iron man were their call names. And what a pair they made bringing fear into the hearts of those who they hunted and pride for those they worked for. But all that changed on that day that she decided that her life was less valuable then his and took the fall and they left her there, he left her there to endure what she hated to think about.no it's over. "I will not let them win, never" She said wanting to cry but crying was something Dakota never did. She couldn't honestly remember the last time she cried. Not even at her father's funeral or when she found him. God, she didn't think she was capable of crying. What kinda of person couldn't cry? She thought as she headed down to meet her future trying really hard to forget the past.
"What!" Bosco said in shock. Davenport turned his head and said, "Go ahead and ask me what you want to ask me!" "Who is he, this Rapp guy?" Just then the elevator came to their destination and he said as the doors opened. "Her ex. And I just don't mean ex-lover, boyfriend...I mean ex-partner. They worked together for about 8 years but were together for about 10 years." "10 years, Holy shit..that's a long time" Bosco said running his hands through his hair nervously. Davenport noticed this and said, "Don't worry it's over trust me has been for about 2 years but he still loves her, probably will never stop but well after what happened between them to cause them to split lets just say there chances for getting back together are far from gone. She would never. I mean she still loves him but it's not the same. Anyway I don't know why but, she is interested in you and that is all I'm saying." Bosco surprised at what he just said but as it sunk in he smiled and his heart lifted and realized that everything that was happening with her was real and he wasn't imagining it or making it to be something more. Oh God, this woman cares for him. He would not fuck this up, he really wanted to see where things could go he wanted a future with her and he's never thought that far ahead with a woman he dated not even Nicole. Just then he heard Davenport say, "Boscerelli get in", as two SUV's waited for them with drivers. "Yeah!" As Bosco went in Reme stepped out of her exit and headed to them. Both men stared at her with concern but couldn't read her. She got in and said to the driver, "Let's move." " Yes Deputy Director" The driver responded and they headed out. They all sat in silence pretty much the whole trip except for the interruptions of Reme's cell phone going off. They arrived at the airport in good time considering the traffic. Just as they pulled in the phone rang again, Reme answered.
"Hey Leslie, what's up...no the press wasn't gotten wind of it yet, we're trying to keep it under wraps for as long as possible..if there are any leaks and I mean any I will destroy that person's life, that I promise..yeah, I know..look just do what you do best girl that's why I hired you.yeah I know, Bye." She looked out the window to the plane that just landed. She got out of the SUV and waited for her team to leave the plane. Davenport by her side and Bosco just staring at them thinking to himself, "I need to talk to her but when and how?"
As Philips descended the plane, he saw Reme and Davenport waiting to greet them and smiled and said, "Oh look the dynamic duo awaits my arrival, how sweet." Reme laughed and Davenport snorted, " Nice to see you to Peter" and shook the agent's hand. Reme hugged Philips and said, " It's nice to see you haven't lost your sense of humor Peter especially when I dragged you out here cause of a hunch." "Come on Dakota! How long have I known you, what almost 3 years now, I know you're hunches I trust your hunches more then I trust my own, you knew I would come running. So where to now, boss?' He said smiling at Reme. "We head to the crime scene, Alright everyone load up!" Reme told her team and asked Philips to follow her and lead her to where Bosco was. "Peter this is Officer Maurice Boscerelli, he's with the 55th precinct Anti- Crime Unit." Looking at Bosco, she introduced them. "Bosco this is Special Agent Peter Philips, he is the head of my forensics unit and my own personal genius." "Awe shucks, boss you're making me blush." Philips said playfully and looking at Bosco. "Hey man nice to meet you, well welcome to our world.. Enjoy your trip and remember keep your hands and feet in at all time while your in motion because you're in for a bumpy ride." Philips smiled and Reme shook her head with a smile and looked at Bosco and winked. He smiled and laughed at what the agent said and smiled back at Reme. They headed out to the scene it was 6:30p.m.
"Hey Sul, it's almost 7:30, we should head over there." Davis said to his partner. "Yeah, okay, let dispatch know as per Reme's orders." Davis did. Yokas looked at the clock and decided it was good time to head to meet Reme. She called into dispatch and made them aware of her orders.
When the officers arrived there, Reme and her team where there and setting up inside. An agent told them they were expected and to head to the back. "Oh God, I don't know if I can take this again." Davis said. "Hey man, you don't have to go. Reme will understand." "No, she wants us there besides the bodies will be gone right?" "Yeah there gone but the stench will still be there and the blood..." Sully said. "Yeah I'm good" Davis said praying to himself to believe that.
"Okay Reme were almost ready here!" Philips hollered over his shoulder. "Good does everyone...hey guys just in time.here take these goggles and put them on when I tell you to." Reme said to the 3 officers as they entered the room. "Bosco, what are you doing here?" Yokas asked, "why aren't you with the bitch?" "I'm learning", he said and looked at Reme who was busy taking to Philips.
"Oh!" she said with a smile, "it's about time!" Bosco head spun towards Yokas and replied, "What the hell is that suppose to mean!" "Ding, ding you two" They heard Reme say with a chuckle. " Okay we're ready everyone goggles on please. Now before I tell Philips to proceed, I want to tell you all why I want you here and why I brought my team here to begin with. I've put myself into this man's head and there is a reason why he has began again and I know that there is something else here that we haven't seen a message of some sort, it makes no sense and I know this man is smart a lot smarter then the previous agents on this case gave him credit for. So with that Philips do your thing." Philips signaled for someone to hit the lights and turned on the X-50 spectramometer. Within seconds, they saw it. She was right, she knew it. On the wall in front of them was a message written with a material that couldn't be seen with the naked eye but only with certain light and at a certain speed. Davenport headed over to Reme and whispered in her ear, "How did you know? "I don't know I just did!" She whispered back. The message read, "Welcome to my game, Bitch" Bosco looked at Reme and knew the message was directed towards her and moved to her side. The three officers stood there and stared at what they were seeing. "Jesus Christ, Reme is that for you. He knows you're the lead?" Sully said.
"I knew it was a matter of time before he made this personal, now I'm a part of his game but he has no idea that I intend on winning!!!" She replied adamantly looking at Bosco and then at Sully. " Okay Philips take images of that please and samples of the material and work your magic. Let me know what you come up with" "You got it boss." With that she turned and headed out with everyone following her.
Bosco was in the car waiting for Reme to come out, when she did he just smiled and watched her get in. He knew that his life was about to change and he was really hoping it was for the better because lately it really sucked. Reme couldn't help but smile at Bosco as she got into the truck. "What?"

"I've talked to the M.E. and CSI, and everything they have told me is consistent with the previous murders, the victims haven't been identified yet but as soon as the M.E.'s office does they will alert me but I have this sneaking suspicion that they are consistent with 'The Dicers' previous choices.

She would never. I mean she still loves him but it's not the same. Anyway I don't know why but, she is interested in you and that is all I'm saying." Bosco surprised at what he just said but as it sunk in he smiled and his heart lifted and realized that everything that was happening with her was real and he wasn't imagining it or making it to be something more. Oh God, this woman cares for him. He would not fuck this up, he really wanted to see where things could go he wanted a future with her and he's never thought that far ahead with a woman he dated not even Nicole. Just then he heard Davenport say, "Boscerelli get in", as two SUV's waited for them with drivers. "Yeah!" As Bosco went in Reme stepped out of her exit and headed to them. Both men stared at her with concern but couldn't read her. She got in and said to the driver, "Let's move." " Yes Deputy Director" The driver responded and they headed out. They all sat in silence pretty much the whole trip except for the interruptions of Reme's cell phone going off. They arrived at the airport in good time considering the traffic. Just as they pulled in the phone rang again, Reme answered.
"Hey Leslie, what's up...no the press wasn't gotten wind of it yet, we're trying to keep it under wraps for as long as possible..if there are any leaks and I mean any I will destroy that person's life, that I promise..yeah, I know..look just do what you do best girl that's why I hired you.yeah I know, Bye." She looked out the window to the plane that just landed. She got out of the SUV and waited for her team to leave the plane. Davenport by her side and Bosco just staring at them thinking to himself, "I need to talk to her but when and how?"
As Philips descended the plane, he saw Reme and Davenport waiting to greet them and smiled and said, "Oh look the dynamic duo awaits my arrival, how sweet." Reme laughed and Davenport snorted, " Nice to see you to Peter" and shook the agent's hand. Reme hugged Philips and said, " It's nice to see you haven't lost your sense of humor Peter especially when I dragged you out here cause of a hunch." "Come on Dakota! How long have I known you, what almost 3 years now, I know you're hunches I trust your hunches more then I trust my own, you knew I would come running. So where to now, boss?' He said smiling at Reme. "We head to the crime scene, Alright everyone load up!" Reme told her team and asked Philips to follow her and lead her to where Bosco was. "Peter this is Officer Maurice Boscerelli, he's with the 55th precinct Anti- Crime Unit." Looking at Bosco, she introduced them. "Bosco this is Special Agent Peter Philips, he is the head of my forensics unit and my own personal genius." "Awe shucks, boss you're making me blush." Philips said playfully and looking at Bosco. "Hey man nice to meet you, well welcome to our world.. Enjoy your trip and remember keep your hands and feet in at all time while your in motion because you're in for a bumpy ride." Philips smiled and Reme shook her head with a smile and looked at Bosco and winked. He smiled and laughed at what the agent said and smiled back at Reme. They headed out to the scene it was 6:30p.m.
"Hey Sul, it's almost 7:30, we should head over there." Davis said to his partner. "Yeah, okay, let dispatch know as per Reme's orders." Davis did. Yokas looked at the clock and decided it was good time to head to meet Reme. She called into dispatch and made them aware of her orders.
When the officers arrived there, Reme and her team where there and setting up inside. An agent told them they were expected and to head to the back. "Oh God, I don't know if I can take this again." Davis said. "Hey man, you don't have to go. Reme will understand." "No, she wants us there besides the bodies will be gone right?" "Yeah there gone but the stench will still be there and the blood..." Sully said. "Yeah I'm good" Davis said praying to himself to believe that.
"Okay Reme were almost ready here!" Philips hollered over his shoulder. "Good does everyone...hey guys just in time.here take these goggles and put them on when I tell you to." Reme said to the 3 officers as they entered the room. "Bosco, what are you doing here?" Yokas asked, "why aren't you with the bitch?" "I'm learning", he said and looked at Reme who was busy taking to Philips.
"Oh!" she said with a smile, "it's about time!" Bosco head spun towards Yokas and replied, "What the hell is that suppose to mean!" "Ding, ding you two" They heard Reme say with a chuckle. " Okay we're ready everyone goggles on please. Now before I tell Philips to proceed, I want to tell you all why I want you here and why I brought my team here to begin with. I've put myself into this man's head and there is a reason why he has began again and I know that there is something else here that we haven't seen a message of some sort, it makes no sense and I know this man is smart a lot smarter then the previous agents on this case gave him credit for. So with that Philips do your thing." Philips signaled for someone to hit the lights and turned on the X-50 spectramometer. Within seconds, they saw it. She was right, she knew it. On the wall in front of them was a message written with a material that couldn't be seen with the naked eye but only with certain light and at a certain speed. Davenport headed over to Reme and whispered in her ear, "How did you know? "I don't know I just did!" She whispered back. The message read, "Welcome to my game, Bitch" Bosco looked at Reme and knew the message was directed towards her and moved to her side. The three officers stood there and stared at what they were seeing. "Jesus Christ, Reme is that for you. He knows you're the lead?" Sully said.
"I knew it was a matter of time before he made this personal, now I'm a part of his game but he has no idea that I intend on winning!!!" She replied adamantly looking at Bosco and then at Sully. " Okay Philips take images of that please and samples of the material and work your magic. Let me know what you come up with" "You got it boss." With that she turned and headed out with everyone following her.
