The Plot Thickens (Karen)
Fifteen hours after the Chicago PD responded to an incident at a warehouse on the pier, Detective Lynch is contacted by Seargeant Griswold, who ended up working overtime and was the first to respond when the call came in.

When she arrives, the police have shut down one of the main roads headed out of town and the reason is quickly apparent; off the side of the road, there is a burned out husk of a vehicle, a black 1967 Chevy Impala. There are scorch and burn marks on the vehicle where it hasn't been smashed or crushed beyond repair. On the ground, two bodies lie underneath sheets, and the Crime Scene Investigators are taking photos of the trunk, where there is a third body.

Sergeant Griswold approaches Lynch when she arrives.

"I'm startin' to think it might be time for me to hang it up, Detective." he says wearily, nodding to the crime scene.

	Michelle just rolled her eyes as they left. "Rick's not too bad once you get to know him. For a vampire, anyway. Some of the vamps... kinda feel sorry for me, on account of not quite being one." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't take that crap from them, Michelle. They're parasites that rarely, if ever, give back to the people they're taking from." Matt says. "You're not quite one of them, which means you're still human and able to feel bad about what you have to do. Guys like Rick think everyone is a walking Happy Meal that lives only for their enjoyment." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You'd be surprised how many of them are just people who got turned by accident and who don't know what else to do," Michelle said, but she let it drop. She didn't much like most of them to begin with, but she'd started seeing another side. "Most of them though? Yeah, they're fuckers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, what I need to ask you for doesn't require you to deal with any vampires. Just need you to keep watch on an apartment for me without letting the person who owns it see you. In return, I'll pay you for your time." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Okay, that got her attention. "What's going on?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"You're probably going to hear about it on the news, but don't go sharing this with anyone else. That movie star that's been in town lately? His name is Austin Caine, and he's got connections to two different murder scenes in less than twelve hours. One scene was a cult ritual. The other is a bad bit of business with the Hell's Angels." Matt explains.

"Now, Caine's vanished, no sign of him. I need to go out of town, but someone needs to watch his place in case he comes back. If he does, call me or Karen and we'll come round him up.

You get paid and no more weirdness until the next time I have to come in." Matt smiles.

	"...Shit," Michelle growled, at the explanation. "Yeah, all right," she said. There might have been a small smile. "I can do that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey, Michelle, thank you for doing this. I appreciate it." Matt says. "Again, don't take any chances. We're not sure what this guy knows about anything...and he could be trouble. Be careful, please." Matt tells her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I will," she said. "Stealth and me? Like this." She managed another smile. "I appreciate the trust." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can see you're trying, Michelle. You're not like other vampires. Hold on to that, because that's what separates you from them." Matt says. "I don't expect to be out of town long, but I'll call you tomorrow to check in. You don't answer, I send someone to look for you." Matt says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Got it," she says, with a small nod. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Matt also hands her $200. "That's half up-front." Matt says. "I'll only need you for a couple of nights, if you can swing it. Either Caine will show or he won't. You get paid either way." If Michelle has nothing else, Matt will turn to go. (Reply to this)(Parent)
