I sighed..currently I was sitting inside the Los angeles police department in a lobby actually waiting for policemen to finish questioning hestia...I had been actually sitting here for about an hour maybe...of course I could always leave and let hestia find her own way by sensing me,but I felt like that would be wrong to do so I just waited until they were done,don't misunderstand hestia wasn't accused of anything it was already sorted out that she was the one who had stopped the robbery and rescued the hostages by herself there were multiple testimonies that proofed it which were the people who she saved,but the thing was hestia was very suspicious on her own because she wore the white mask the moment we walked into the bank some of the policemen thought that she worked with the robbers which was complete nonsense to me,but because they needed to follow their so called "protocol" bullshit,they had to be sure that she wasn't working with the robbers that why she was being questioned...as for me they just told me to go home,but they also said that I could wait which I was doing of course,actually I was a bit worried not gonna lie hestia didn't have any ID herself so I was fully expecting them to come up empty when they search for her which would make her even more suspicious,but at the same time I wasn't really pressured since steward told me once that having no ID wasn't really a problem it was only ever important when you left a country,but it could be convenient in some case...I wondered if this case was one of them.

-Hey kid you want some coffee ? I think the questioning will take a bit and I can see that you aren't about to run away...

I was suddenly asked making me slightly surprised as I turned my head towards the voice and as I did so I met with a woman who had short black hair and stood 6.1 feet tall she was bowed down to meet me with her friendly smile as her brown eyes looked at me analyzing...I knew this woman and actually I was expecting to meet her in this place...what was her name again ?...now that I am thinking about it she didn't introduce herself to me last time did she?

Looking at her i also smiled mildly trying to be a bit more friendly.

-Sorry I don't think i caught your name last time ma'am...

Hearing my reply her furrowed for a bit as she thought about herself replying to me soon after.

-Oh thats right I actually never introduced myself kid last time we met it was quite a rushed start and my partner wasn't quite the most friendliest guy to talk with which I still feel sorry for by the way...on the topic I didn't hear your name either did I ? Well let me introduce myself first...my name is Milesh Aunburn i am a detective working for the L.A.P.D. nice to meet you kid...

She gave me her hand when she said that trying to give me a handshake which i took gladly as i also introduced myself properly with a smile.

-Nice to meet you miss Mishel my name is Dawn Timer as you know I moved in only over a week ago i am also sorry for last time rushing off like this...

She laughed pleasantly and just sat on the seat next to me continuing the conversation.

-Oh its alright..but your pretty young you know? The first time we met I even called you a mister because of the way you act like a adult does I was also pretty confused myself that...oh wait I almost forgot..my coffee offer ? how about it staying here doesn't seem to be very comfortable you also seemed to be very bored having a break right now seems more fitting don't you think ?

She asked making me think for a moment what to do...I also glanced towards the door for a few seconds...Hestia would tell me when she finishes and I also really needed a break I was tired a bit spent even didn't have a proper rest for the past days coffee also sounds very good I didn't taste it very often,but i already loved the sour sweet taste of it.

With that out-of-the-way I turned towards Mishel nodding my head accepting her offer she smiled and told me to follow her into the break room which I did of course and on the way I actually wondered what this woman wanted from me in particular she obviously didn't come here to talk with me on friendly terms or out of pity she wanted something that I could tell it directly reflected in her eyes that there was some kind of need from me...Information maybe ?

I tried guessing,but not sure which answer was right and which was wrong honestly I didn't care since I either way got free coffee which was good.

With those thoughts I followed Mishel and we soon got into the break room which had a lot of coffee machines set up in it...she quickly prepared a few machines and pressed a couple buttons to initiate the brewing in the meantime that was happening I looked around curious really...on the way here we had passed by many different people who were restlessly working on their desks some talking with each other and some smoking venting out a bit of stress they all looked different,but I could see that they all had one thing in common they all had that sharp glint in their eyes almost piercing even as if nothing could escape their eyes it was a glint of wisdom so to say not everyone had it,but most of these had it for sure one of them being Mishel of course...

-So if you mind me asking why did you move over this rowdy city ?

Mishel asked out of the blue sitting down next to the table opposite of me...the sound of the coffee machine could be heard as she talked letting me think about my answer or so to say my official story that was prepared beforehand by Steward.

-I previously used to live in the country side and because nothing really exciting was happening over there I decided to leave and live with my uncle in the city...

Mishel listened to me wholeheartedly as I continued to relay her my fake story of where I came from and what I did before this story was actually officially true if you look into the documents,but in reality it was forged something steward made for me so I wouldn't be questioned too hard or try to make things up in a fly the story was done in a document he had given to me with the ID it was pretty well done I had to admit.

-So what about your parents ? actually...

She asked as when I finished my story obviously I didn't mention that I had parents and just told her a short version.

-I don't have parents actually...They died in a car accident 10 years ago...when i was 5...

I lied through my teeth without changing my expression and just staring into the coffee machine...Mishel took the answer with slight wide eyes with slight sympathy,but at the same not really believing in it fully.

-Oh really...sorry to have you remember that....lets change topic do you go to school or why are you actually here in the first place ?

The last question had me a bit laughing since the story was a bit long and weird,but the first question was easy.

-I already finished school jumping grades actually and as for why i am here thats a pretty long story actually...

Mishel smiled hearing that smiled and got up noticing that the coffee was already done brewing getting it into the cups.

-I am all ears

She said finishing up and placing 2 cups of coffee on the table one for me and one for her...her attitude from this point was pretty laid back as I told her how Hestia kicked the robbers asses and why I was here since I was just waiting for her...I even explained who hestia was telling her that she was one of the security guards me uncle had hired and also a friend of the family which i made up,Mishel who was pretty much already hooked in the story was pretty wide eyed because of the things that I had gone through in one day and still be able to talk like this as if it wasn't a big deal she also showed a big interest for Hestia herself dropping hints on wanting to meet her personally.

-Wow thats really a amazing story you got there I wasn't really there when the robbery began I was looking through a case actually...you may remember when we first met I asked you if you saw anything strange in these parts the last few days right ?

I nodded now really interested in what she wanted from me since this topic particular was something she didn't mention out of the blue she intended to lead the conversation to this and was for some reason interested in my opinion which was weird seeing that I only came a few days ago why might she have any interest in a person like me ?

I wondered just listening to her talking and acting as if I knew nothing and from what I understand it was like this.

Over the past month there had been multiple cases of homocide in the city all of them ending up in death of 2 to 3 people each time ,the amount of these cases was at least once per week now which was worry some since the homocide's happen randomly in other parts of the city each time it would be from a different person who committed the crime,most of that time that person would be shot dead because for some reason these people couldn't be reasoned with they would turn into wild animals and try to kill everything that moves catching them was also very hard and not advised after the first 2 incidents trying to use tranquilizers also doesn't seem to work on these guys either having no effect on them and disabling them was also useless since the moment they calm down finally their heart stops beating leading to instant death...these incidents were strange and had made its way through the news all over the town warning people...currently it is believed that its some kind of drug that cause people to suddenly go berserk or something,but the autopsy report states that there is no drug involved shrouding these incidents in even more mysteries since they can't even predict when such incident is going to happen again or who is making them happen...Mishel in particular seems to be really upset by this when she told me about it and listening to her i also remembered some words about this not from the news,but it came from Illeana actually the vampiress also known as the president of the "Victoria" night club she had once mentioned to me that there had been a werewolve in the city going rogue all of sudden killing 3 people too Illeana herself had given me a small explanation to this topic giving me a basic understand such as the fenrirs and the wolf packs and members and how the transformation usual goes with a supervisor who makes sure that the newly made werewolf doesn't go rogue.

She told me also that it was unsettling since no one really knew where the werewolf came from which seemed to be basically impossible since werewolves could sense other werewolves pretty easily it seems other then that there seems to be multiple theories on how that could be one of them being that it may have been smuggled in without anyone knowing which Illeana seems to be the most scared out of...with a good reason too I guess.

-You seem to be unfocused actually do you know something ? anything is fine I know that you didn't live here long enough,but small clues could always lead to something...

She said trying to look like she didn't really care,but I knew thats what she was really after...for some reason this woman slash detective believed that I knew something about these incidents which I clearly did not...so why was she thinking like this then ?

It was confusing so to say,but I shook my head with a sigh telling her the truth.

-I don't know anything I was actually on a errand for the past few days so I didn't get to hear the news actually

I could see small disappointment in her eyes she probably thought I at least knew something and felt betrayed about her expectations which couldn't be helped, she looked at her own cup for moment taking a sip from it and then suddenly a man stormed into the break room a bit urgent.

-Hey Mishel we have to go,there was another incident...

He said a bit grimly he took a small glance towards me for a few seconds which lasted a few seconds with confusion,but then her directly looked towards Mishel again who finished her coffee entirely and looked towards the man nodding her head determined.

Soon after the guy left leaving only me and Mishel inside the room...I looked at my warm cup of coffee for a moment and took a single sip from it looking back at Mishel who was getting ready to leave.

-Well it was nice talking with you kid if you need anything or have something to say then come to me I am policemen after all and I promise to uphold justice...bye you can finish your coffee don't worry about

I nodded head acknowledging her answer to me looking back to the mug of coffee and taking another sip as Mishel took out her phone talking to someone...I sharpened my sense's for a moment trying to listen in on the conversation.

-Martin what is going on ? give me an run down...

-Man...Mishel you gotta see this we have another 3 victims here this time they are shredded...this is messed up and it doesn't make sense either...

-Shut up Martin and just tell me what is going on I don't need your opinion just yet...

-If you say...

They continued like this back and forth and after Mishel finally reached a certain distance I wasn't able to hear any further...but I was able to get the idea of it...

This was a bit unnerving and I wasn't sure if this was another one of those werewolf gone rogue incidents maybe it could be a drug who knows...
