[QUOTE="talien, post: 4197484, member: 3285"] [b]Skinwalker: Prologue[/b] PHOENIZ, AZ--Guppy was driving. They were on their way back from the latest mission in Arizona. Blade sat in the front, staring off into the space, deep in the thought. Archive tapped on his keyboard. Hammer and Caprice were debating on whether or not the man they killed in the mine was really a vampire. He tried to keep his eyes on the road as they passed by an odd ruin atop a wide ledge. Black crows blanket the trees. An ugly, rusted van was parked nearby. As they passed, Guppy caught sight of a tall man in a dark overcoat and hat dropping something—something wrapped in what looked like a bloodstained sheet—down a sinkhole. “Do you see that?” asked Guppy. Blade was staring at the man too. As Guppy watched, the figure turned and seemed to peer right at him as they passed by. A police siren shrieked right in front of him. Guppy yanked the wheel hard; a cop was tearing down the road on the wrong side of the street, ducking around an eighteen-wheeler. The van shrieked and then tilted. For a second gravity hung in the balance as the vehicle teetered. Then it rolled over, tumbling off the side of the road into a ditch. To Guppy’s surprise, they had landed wheels down. “Maybe we should let Blade drive again,” said Hammer, extricating himself from the pile of other agents. “I saw a man dumping bodies!” shouted Guppy. They all got out of the van. The cop was heading due east towards Culver’s Pass. The team’s van was pulled over a bit further down the road, close enough that they could jog there. It was clear that the cops hadn’t stopped where the body dumping had occurred, but a ways before it. The area was obscured from their field of vision by a rising hill. It was sheriff Colorados. His patrol car was pulled over to the side of the road near a battled old pickup truck. IT was half-hidden in the gully that ran parallel to it, the same gully that had caught the team’s van. “Colorados,” said Blade in greeting. Colorados nodded back. “We almost crashed into you back there. Everything all right?” Colorados shook his head. “We think this was Virgil Nist,” he said, pointing at a pool of blood in the passenger seat of the car. “But there’s no body. Just a lot of blood.” “We saw something a little further back,” said Blade. “Looked like it was a man dumping bodies a little further east from here.” Colorados sucked on his lower lip. “I’ll call for backup.” They nodded. “We’ll check it out,” said Blade. Guppy swallowed. “We will?” [/QUOTE]
