"Detective Morgan? Captain King is here to see you."

Moving his eyes from the screen in front of him, Detective Morgan looked towards the young officer who stood in the doorway.

"Send her in. Thank you." Watching the office leave, he set down the tablet he had been using before looking back towards the entrance.

Captain June King stood in the doorway; a dark blue dress suit fit nicely to her body. Her white hair straightened and stopping just inches past her shoulders. He had worked under her for the years since he joined. She was well known for her work in the field and knew of his own desire in working.

"Good to see you June." He greeted, watching as she nodded her head in return while closing the door behind her.

"You as well Morgan. I've heard you've taken on the high robbery case." Once the door had closed, she had moved closer to the table he was sitting at, her arms folded across her chest as her bright blue eyes looked over the wall in front of them.

"Once I was told hostages are now involved, I had to." He spoke up, grabbing at the tablet he disregarded seconds before, swiping his fingers across it. This action caused the images on the wall before them to suddenly change, bundles of pictures pulling up.

Once the pictures and computer notes were all showing, Captain King took a step forward to look over the pictures in front of her.

"What have you gathered?'

Standing up, Morgan taped on the screen causing the two pictures before her to fill the wall more before he spoke up. "Our two hostages are Mia Porter and Eddy Price. Both work as receptionists for the city's law firm. They had gotten off work and based on the video footage went to the bank together."

Taping the screen once more, the pictures of Eddy and Mia moved to the side before a large black and white video footage photo of the bank robbery appeared. It was seen Eddy's body in mid-action of standing up while Mia was being held captive by one of the robbers.

"I think they were simply planning on using Ms. Porter as a shield. From the video footage, I watched Mr. Price took action to stop them when one of the robbers was shot and injured before both were forcibly taken, forced into a car. That was the last footage we have of them and we're still looking for the marked vehicle they got away in."

Captain King looked over the taken video footage, before turning her head to look back towards Detective Morgan.

"And the robbers? Any new news?" She asked, watching as once more he nodded before doing something to the tablet screen, her eyes moving to the wall before them. Everything that was there suddenly replaced with many pictures of the robbers, all of which circled around 3 well-drawn pictures.

"Nothing new as of yet. Based on body size, height, and witnesses that are men in their 20s. It has just been the three of them and they appear to have this system." Morgan stated, setting the tablet down as he moved to the point center picture. It was a sketch of a robber, but the thing that Captain King realized stood out with each drawing was the eyes. This one had the robber's eyes a sharp blue. Surrounding the sketch were actually pictures of the individual robber from the past robberies.

"This one we believe is the leader. He leads the robberies and is the one that gives the orders. Unlike from the other two, no code name has been provided to him." Morgan rambled off, everything he had gathered coming from the hours he had spent reading each individual case file.

"The other two have been called Tigger and Eyore. Tigger seen from every robbery has been the one to load all of the money, somehow knowing which bundle has any trackers or link bombs. Eyore appears to just be an extra set of hands and he is the one that based on video feed I believe Eddy ended up shooting."
