Prologue
Sirens. Neon. Casinos, all in a night's work for the croupiers, card sharks and bottom dealers of the Las Vegas strip. However, in one particular hotel along the strip were four people...
"Aww come-one, how often are we in 'Vegas?" He asked, a pained tinge in his voice.
"Peter, we were called out here to perform our job...not for you to go fraternizing with the local chorus dancers." The blond haired man replied, a tinge of sarcasm in his voice.
"Egon, I gotta admit, the bust was a little tiring...maybe some down time while we still have the chance would do us some good?" The African-American asked. Egon glared at the man, but didn't say anything.
"Come-on Egon, you could study the probability of how many wins someone could get on a fruit machine." Peter added, a cheesier grin on his face. Egon simply folded his arms. "Fine, you coming Winston? Ray?" Peter asked.
"I don't know Pete...I could use the time to make sure the online Tobin is updated." Ray admitted.
"Fine, come-on Winston, we know how to have a good time in a party town like this." With that, Peter stormed from the room.
"You homeboys gonna be okay? Want us to bring you back anything?" Winston asked from the open door.
"Erm...maybe something to bite, probably just something from a golden arches or something." Ray replied.
"'K, I'll certainly be back soon, though trying to convince Pete will be a challenge, see you later." With that, he turned and closed the suite door behind him.
"What do we have here?" He asked as he walked towards a policeman in a brown suit.
"Dead girl, approximately 23 years, appears to be an assault. But there's a weird substance we so far can't identify." The policeman said, his face wore a grim expression. A gold badge backed by black leather hung from the suit jacket pocket, he was a detective. "An ambulance was called, but when they arrived she was already dead." He added.
"Tonight somebody's leaving a party in an ambulance, and they're doing it wearing a mortuary bag."
"Who are you? Who, who. Who, who? Who are you? Who, who. Who, who? I really wanna know! Who are you? Whoa, I really wanna know who, who, who are...you?"
