First Case, Drabble # 1!Word Count: --- Total! ⇢Waking Up.¶ Sun was barely up. Just climbing the horizon, casting shadows on everything, as it began to rise into the sky. It was 7 Am. My cell Phone rang. I was still asleep. I had been sleeping for at least 4 hours, when the phone rang. I slowly opened my right eye and then my left, as I groaned in protest. I turned over, moaning, still under the covers. I uncovered my left hand, I slowly reaching out to grip my fingers around my phone. Pulling the phone and my arm under the covers.⇢The Heat.¶ 100 Degrees. An OK temperature. for a demon, at least. The room was blazing (Normal humans would have melted and passed out, unable to bear it), but I wasn't human. I was a hybrid of two creatures that both were hot to the touch, a demon and a werewolf. Not even cold really fazed me. Though I would have preferred the heat over cold. Picking up the phone, I breathed out slowly As I read the caller ID. ⇢The Phone Call.¶ Ring Ring Ring. LAPD it read. I sighed deeply, as I pressed the green button to answer it. Pressing it to my left ear. "Yes?" I asked the person on the other line. "We have a body, meet me here." A male voice told me, deep and dark. "Yeah, give me 5, I'll meet you." I told him as I sat up in bed, grabbed a pen and paper, writing down the address, before I flung the bed covers off me."Alright, see you in 5." He tell me before hanging up, the click on the other side signaled the end of the phone call.I heaved a heavy sigh as I swung my legs off the bed and onto the wooden floor of my apartment. ⇢The Crime Scene.¶ I quickly put on a pot of coffee, and took a quick shower. I got dressed in my police vest, slacks and a black tee shirt. I put my combat black boots on and went to my kitchen to get my coffee and an apple to eat on my way to the scene. "It will have to suffice until I can get something filling to eat." I thought to myself as I took a travel mug down from a cupboard and poured the coffee into it. Quickly looking at my watch to see how much time I had left - 3 minutes. ¶ I quickly put the apple in my mouth, walked to the front door, while putting the lid on my mug. Twisting it on, I reached and grabbed my purse and keys on the table next to the door. Swinging the purse over my head the strap laying cross my chest, as I grasped the door nob, twisting it, opening and then stepping outside. Closing it, I locked it as I finally clamped down on the apple. Tearing a piece off, turned to the stairs and descended them to the parking lot. Empty, for the most part, some early birds, moving.¶ I paid them no mind as I beelined for my Crown Victorian Police Interceptor. Reaching the car without interruption, I unlocked and climbed inside, taking off my purse as I slid into the drivers seat. I put the purse in the passenger seat, and the keys in the ignition as I finished the bite in my mouth, Swallowing the piece, i bit off another as I closed the door, started the ignition and took off out of the lot to the main road. I put the remaining apple on napkin on the passenger seat - on top of the purse. My sirens on, as I put my foot on the petal and rammed up the engine. I was off. ¶ I passed through the parked cars, that had pulled over so I could pass. My sirens blaring loudly. I sped to the scene and slammed on my brakes, as I came behind another cruiser. I climbed out fast and ran with my gun out pointed in front of me for protection. The scene was horrific. A car crash. The main driver had died during it, leaving the passenger and two kids seriously injured. The person in the other car, was just being loaded into the ambulance. The chief filled me in on what had happened. I wrote down notes and began to help with the cleanup. Metal shards from the cars was everywhere. I grabbed a broom from my car (Yes, I kept one, just in case), an usual habit - yes - but useful at times.¶ ⇢ CREDIT: WU SHIFU
