Merits and Flaws: Addicted to my cigarettes.

I was always a smart cookie growing, unfortunately I didn't come from a rich family, so right after high-school it was job hunting for me with little to no hope for college. I worked all sorts of small jobs before I found my self at the Police Academy. Did pretty well for myself with the boys in blue. A few years on the job and I'd always pick things out that others can't, things that even the detectives would miss. With encouragement I eventually made it to detective, and boy was I excited...that's when it hit the fan.

My first month in as a detective, we get reports of missing kids all over LA. Now a missing kid here and there, while tragic, doesn't usually require a detective to look in to it. Kids runaway all the time. But this time it was different, almost 50 teenagers went missing in 2 months from a single middle-school! Why it hadn't hit mainstream news was probably because it was from the...urban side of the city. Once it hit my ears, I was all over it, but almost nothing was turning up. After a week of no answers or clues, the school reopened, and that's when I finally catch a break. One day after the reopening, one of the students was lost again, but this time she left an extremely disturbing voicemail as they were being attack at the school. I now know for a fact that the attacks are taking place at school...and that it's more than just kidnapping. We now suspect human trafficking.

During an unscheduled stakeout, I saw and followed the principle escorting a student to the far side of the school grounds where the portable classrooms were. We had already searched there thoroughly and didn't find anything suspicious. The student looked like a rowdy and troublesome boy, probably on his way to detention. Then I realized that all the disappeared children were all issued detention before their disappearance, but this is the principle, her background already checked out. Didn't matter, I acted and charged right after them. In the classroom was a vampire about to get his hands on the boy. Not knowing the danger I was in, and only seeing a crazed individual, I went straight to work in subduing them. It soon became apparent that I was far from my depth and was probably about to be eaten. That's when Agent Kiki Roswell came crashing in through the window and saved my bacon. Easily subduing the enthralled principle and killing the vampire with a glowing shotgun, she thanked me for my service before explaining to me what just happened. Right in front of me, she used her magic to alter the boy and the principle's memories. When asked if she was gonna do the same with me, she said no and had other ideas. The cleanup job was messy, but we managed to produce the body of the "Serial Killer" before putting a close to the case. The whole thing was really hard on all the students and especially the parents. It will be a awhile before they can move on. I on the other hand had a new career.

Now, here I am two months later, now part of the NWO and about to be sent on my first real assignment after basic training. And God damn, what is this world that I woke up to?!
