Her fellow GDF agent.

“Well fuck Ava,” Angel said while rubbing her shoulder, “nearly ran me over.”

“Sorry about that Angel, but we got to get the fuck out of here now,” Ava quickly ordered right after her apology. “Newman sent me a message, he needs us to get down to the police station now.” Angel nodded in response and both women quickly exited the club. Just as the club door closed behind them, the Staff Only door opened.

Joe stepped out and double checked to make sure his pants were zipped all the way before heading back to the bar. Benny the bartender already had another glass of bourbon there waiting for him along with a questioning look. Joe smiled, nodded, and pretended to shoot a basketball which brought a laugh and a shaking of the head from Benny.

“I don’t know how you do it man,” called out Benny, “the girls just love you.”

“Hey, when you look this good it’s hard to resist,” chuckled Joe as he sat back down and took a sip. He slowly turned and his eyes widened in surprise at the person now sitting next to him.

“Hey Victor!” Joe shouted in with a smile. “You’re never going to believe what just happened. And the best part, you might get to meet her!”

***************************************************************

Ava and Angel parked their respective luxury sports cars outside of the large stone headquarters of the Romanian police. After they existed they were both greeted by a lieutenant who had difficulty from keeping his eyes wandering at the sight of the two gorgeous women. He quickly led them in and brought them to a room downstairs. There the equivalent of a police commissioner was waiting. He stood next to what appeared to be a body covered by a sheet and a blank computer screen. The lieutenant quickly stepped out and closed the door behind the agents. Just as the door closed, the computer screen sprang to life and Newman’s face could be visible.

“Banshee, Angel, thank you for getting here as soon as possible,” Newman began, but hesitated as he saw the women come into view. “My god do I miss fieldwork…er…I mean…Chestor-general de poliție Popescu, who is one of the few men in the country who knows our mission here informed me we have a break in one of the cases.” As he said this, the older yet burly police commissioner slowly grabbed an end of the sheet and pulled it to the side. Beneath the sheet was one of the more recently missing girls. She still had a tiny bit of color so she must have been alive within the past 48 hours. Ava began to study the body and noticed multiple sets of puncture wounds.

“What they fuck are all those, snake bites?” inquired Angel as she walked closer to the body to examine it.

“We are not 100 percent sure Angel,” replied Newman, “but it doesn’t appear to be from any reptile or canine origin.”

“So it’s obviously-“

-“Vampires?” The Romanian police official cut off Angel. “That’s just an old ghost story which the people in villages south of the city use to justify grave digging and sacrificial killings." Popescu leaned down closer to the lifeless young woman on the table. "But this doesn't seem like the work of a drunk villager."

"Agents, this obviously changes things," Newman spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, "do you have any other leads?"

"We do," spoke up Ava, no longer needing to study the body before her, "a contact who may know multiple missing women at the Player Club. No last name yet, but goes by Victor." Ava and Angel shared a quick glance. They weren't about to discuss their encounters with certain black hared woman with each other, let alone Newman.

"Sounds like we hit the Player Club tomorrow night as planned," Newman's voiced echoed throughout the room as Popescu re-covered the corpse with the sheet. "Agents we'll continue with the plan as drawn in your dossiers. However I'll have additional gear for you to be delivered in 24 to 48 hours. Just be careful out there...no matter what you're dealing with. Newman out."

Ava and Angel followed Popescu as he opened the door and turned off the light. They said their goodbyes as the female agents again walked through the police headquarter halls, knowing that the curious eyes of many police officers followed them along the way. The agents hopped into their cars and made their way back to the penthouse, knowing that they better prepare for whatever comes their way moving forward.
