Haunted Homicide

Chapter Four: So it begins

It's been quite a few months every since they came face to face with Jefferson and discover there's more to meet the eye than vampires, werewolves, and more. The Team were heavily invested in trying to figure out, if there's weapons or even spell that's simple for them to protect and also kill demons. Nathan & Angie have taken the team under their wings and explain to them that while they still rusty but eventually they got the hang of it. They discover and research everything from weapons to trials and more. "We could have use these weapons in our cases to destory them much faster? All we have is guns that took our entire ammo supplies" said Santos while looking at a very big knife that is normally use for cutting big tall grass while walking in Jungles. "Reggie! Check this bad boy out while he post it up to the big screen. Reggie & Jack stood side by side and look at everyone including Avery & Devon who agree to be part of the team. They look at each other and Jack decided to walk away to join the others leaving Reggie behind. Nathan appear next to him which made him jump. "Jesus" He said. "Sorry I didn't mean to scared you" Nathan replied. "Any more obvious and you'll be jumping at him" He added while staring directly at Jack. "Actually not happening" Reggie responded "plus I'm glad your here, we need to talk" Reggie walk out of the office and headed to the kitchen Mathan follow and they ran into Jay who said, "Reggie! This is a whole world" Jay looks like a little child at a playground with new information. "Tell me, You said our strength is in numbers, are we gonna dead?" Reggie asked. "Not if you play your cards right" Nathan said, "I'm only kidding of course but no, some of these trials to be able to close some of hells gates is not easy Espically for people like you. These trials will be extremely complex and requires team work. If one person in your team wouldn't comply it can be challenging" Reggie took a deep breathe and sighs, "When did this became a game of Squid Games?" He mutters. "Are you sure this is the only way of stop him?" He asked Nathan. Nathan looks uneasy and said, "Yes" Reggie notice his tone but decided to not address it. Reggie wanted to ask something else about the other two but instead He was bought back to reality when Angie call for a team meeting to address their concerns on all new equipments. "I have good news, I may have an informant. He works in Lower Manhattan but lives in Queens, We believe one of Jefferson's henchmen is keeping an eye on him from a distance" Trey asked, "How are suppose to kill his henchmen if we don't have any weapons or anything useful?" Angie gave him and everyone else a bottle which they all catch "These are your weapon" Santos look at the bottle and says, "Looks like water" Angie said, "It's not just any water" Leah looks at it again and says, "Holy Water" Angie pointed to Leah and said, "Bungi" Aother way to find out if it's one of his henchmen" Nathan butted in "Deus" Devon then looks at them who were confused "It means god in Latin. Demons don't like anything to do with Heaven or it's creator so therefore. It's a simple yet powerful charm. Though it hasn't been proven to work" He looking at Nathan. "Least from what I gather" he added with a smal scoff. Devon doesn't seem to trust Nathan or any heavenly things since his mother passed away a month ago. "So when do we leave?" asked Trey. "First thing tomorrow morning" Angie said. "For now go to bed all of you" Everyone got up and quickly went to their own room above their offices, Jay says, "There's room here for you two as well" Angie & Nathan thank him and they too went to bed.

Reggie stay downstairs and he lean back on his chair and just stare around. "Crazy day isn't?" asked Jack giving him a bottle of water, "it's everything" Reggie said looking at jack who sat down on the chair next to him. "Everything, we thought we knew, isn't enough. Now we have to add all these angels and demon and a king from hell into the mix" Reggie spoke and sigh before taking a sip of water. "It's not easy for the rest of us either. These cases aren't our typical cases, not anymore anyway" Jack answered. "Can I be honest with you?" Jacked ask. "Sure" Reggie said placing the bottle back down. "If it comes down to Being the one standing, just promise me one thing" Jack look at him and Reggie look surprise "I suppose, what's up?" Reggie asked. "Make sure you save the others and leave me behind and just promise me to make it to the end" Reggie was taken aback by this request but he nodded. "Sure but you heard what Nathan said, it's all a team effort" Jack looks puzzlely at him and said, "I feel like there's something he isn't telling us. I'm not sure what it is" Jack said. "I don't doubr he's lying about the tablets bud I feel like there's something else at play here" Jack sigh, Reggie kept staring at Jack quite curiously "You feel it too" He asked. "What the lying or something off?" Jack responded. Reggie nodded. "Yeah I felt it ever since they arrive. It's a new process for all of us" Jack looks at Reggie with a look of puppy eyes and says, "Reggie, I wanna apologize for everything" Reggie nodded and said, "Don't worry about it, your stupid stunt seem to have uncover a whole Secert of other areas" Jack gave him a small soft smile, He wanted to say something else to keep the talk going but instead he got up and said, "Common let's get some sleep. It's getting late" He said. Reggie got up and follow closely behind him, they walk pass the room that Nathan was in and heard a bunch of noises. Jack turn who was very closely near him which made Jack turn a bit pink thankfully the darkness was able to head it before Jack whispers to him "Not a couple my ass" Reggie newrly laugh out loud. They bid each other good night and they went off to sleep.

Meanwhile, Back inside Nathan's room, He was awaken and just groaning in pain in his head. "Nathan" said the voice "Yes Dad?" He asked. "Did they agree?" Nathan lay down again while still holding his head  and replied, "Yes, if all goes well, everything will be at peace. No matter the cost" "Good" said the Voice. "We'll meet again soon"
