[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 6815284, member: 36150"] As the squad car rolled into the parking lot of Belmont High, a wash of nostalgia overtook Janice, a combination of elation and melancholy. To think that she had successfully 'gotten out' of this tiny berg, only to return again... Most kids dreamed of leaving for the Big City. They all talked about how they were tired of the same-old, that they'd make something of themselves, that life was so much better anywhere else but 'here'. Janice was one of the few who actually enjoyed growing up in Belmont, and why wouldn't she? She was one of the 'cool kids'. She worked hard at her studies, had a very successful championship run as point guard for the basketball team, and managed to keep her household from falling apart after her father's return from the Afghanistan War... all before she turned 18. Going to college seemed like it would have been a vacation, by comparison. And for a while, it was. Her basketball reputation got her into the varsity spotlight, which in turn got her into a sorority, which of course led to the sorority parties. Wild parties. In fact, one party got so wild, they had to move it outside. And out of town. Someone had stolen a bus and had taken the party to a secluded orchard outside Boston, Janice included. No one was certain what had happened that night - some say wild dogs, some say monsters - but three lettermen and two of Janice's sorority girls lost their lives in some kind of freak attack. The shame was too much for Janice to bear; her whole purpose in life seemed to be to help others and she couldn't help her friends when they needed her most. She quit the basketball team and, the very next semester, transferred to Boston College's police department. There, she trained to become a police officer and swore that she would never let down her friends again. Around the same time that Janice graduated, she got word of some kind of mysterious deaths that were happening back in Belmont. Her mother was also worried that Janice's sister, Juno, might be getting involved with one of the local gangs. Janice took these as a sign and arranged for her first posting to be in Belmont. She took the summer to get her affairs in order, then met her commanding officer in Belmont: one Captain Glivinski. Captain Glivinski came up with the brilliant idea of stationing Janice at the school. Janice looked young and 'green' enough that her presence wouldn't disturb the students too much, and Janice would have eyes-on intel on any possible gang activity on school grounds. Plus, having someone in an official capacity to wield a gun would be helpful should anything... unusual... happen. The Captain's voice snapped Janice from her reverie. She scanned the throng of students, spotted Juno glaring daggers at her. She was about to give her the "I'm watching you" hand gesture when, suddenly, someone in the bleachers started going into convulsions. Janice leapt to the podium, shouted, "Clear a path!" into the microphone, then darted across the gym towards the fallen student. [/QUOTE]
