Detective DiCicco gets a new assignment
It's noon and Detective DiCicco is in his office at the Staten Island precinct. He should be working. But he's not -- he's worried.
Not about anything serious. Nothing as serious as a crime, anyone. But his family. He's got a wife and five kids, and if that wasn't a big drain on his time and wallet...
He looks at the calendar. October 25, 1999. Monday. 6 days to Halloween.
Anthony and Salvatore had outgrown trick-or-treating, but they still wanted a costume. And Lucia and Carmine couldn't talk about anything else. "Papa, I want to be a witch! A vampire! A ghost! You're going trick-or-treating with us, right? Right, papa?"
F'ing hell. DiCicco shakes his head.
Next to the calendar is a big news clipping, a photo of him and that psychologist, Pascal D'Encre. They caught The Wolf. That sick bastard. Used to eat his victims with his dogs, just got on all fours with them, ruff ruff, chomp chomp. Thought he was a werewolf.
DiCicco hates dogs now. All of them. German Shepherds. Great Danes. St. Bernards. All the way down to poodles. He has nightmares about them. People think they're loyal best friends, but DiCicco knows better.
Riing!
The phone on his desk rings. He picks it up.
"Detective DiCicco? This is Sgt. McGarnagle."
OOC: give me an EDU roll, please.
