It was a cold dark night in south Detroit as detective Jason Teach sat in an unmarked police vehicle watching an abandoned building where a supposed weapons deal was supposed to go down that he got from a confidential informant. "Man I really hope these gang bangers show up on time because I'm freezing my damn balls off up here Jace" Jack says into Jace's ear piece cutting the silence from a nearby roof top where he was sitting with an Remington model 700 sniper rifle acting as overwatch, Jace chuckles into the mike "oh come on Jack it's not that bad, I had to pull someone I knew I could trust to act as overwatch and besides you are the second best shot in the department" he says with a smile, Jack replies with a mocking laugh "Ya and who's the best shot in the department" Jace smiles "why me of course but only by a little" he smiles as he hears Jack mockingly groan as 2 black cargo vans pull into the loading dock and 8 guys with automatic weapons get out and act as sentries as 2 guys unload the weapon cases. Jack looks down his scope seeing the vans stop and start unloading "ok Jace we have 8 hostiles on the southside of the building and they all look to be carrying automatic UMP 40's with sidearms, no telling who is in the building no lights or movement that I can see but that doesn't mean that no one is in there already besides isn't this supposed to be an arms deal between two of the Cities gangs" Jack asks as he scans the rooftop waiting for Jace to answer, "listen my CI told me this was so the two gangs could unify, one gang holds turf and the other has weapons connections as we can tell by the machine guns these goons are carrying" Jack always the cautious one asks "Ya I can see that but what's to stop your CI from blabbing your info to every gang banger on the streets" Jace smiles "carful brother almost sounds like you are starting to care for me" he says teasing Jack as he snaps some pictures for evidence purposes "yeah yeah keep talking and I'll put a bullet in your block" Jack says as he chuckles a little then turns serious as he sees Jace quietly get out of his car and move to the back side opening the trunk and getting his M4 out of the back along with his bullet proof vest "listen Jack I'm guessing he did tell someone that Detroit PD was looking into this but my CI doesn't even know my name don't worry we're good this is all above board and besides I need your mind on the moment not on what could happen" Jace says as he does a final weapons check "ok Jack we move on your first shot, ready when you are". The silent night splits in half as Jack takes a breath and squeezes the trigger and the rifle roars dropping the first gang banger a hundred and twenty yards away as Jace rushes in with his M4 already at his shoulder and fires dropping 3 guys in quick succession as the other gang bangers turn towards Jace and start firing at him forcing him to duck down behind a rusted metal car he hears a second shot from the big caliber rifle as another gang banger is shot destroying half of the guys upper body shoulder "good shooting Jack" he says as it forces the other members into cover as their reinforcements pour out of the building Jace can hear Jack cussing "you damn son of a bitch Jace it looks like you're CI told every gang banger in Detroit" he says as he sees Jace popping around the car firing shots each shot taking out three or four gang Bangers, after about 5 or 10 minutes the gun battle is done as reinforcement police officers pull in and start picking off other gang members forcing them to surrender as 15 of their members laid dead in the street Jace moves In and start doing his preliminary investigation moving inside the building. As Jace enters the dimly lit Warehouse his eyes slowly adjust as he pulls out a notepad and starts documenting what he sees which is a few weapons cases with military-grade weaponry "damn I swear every time we get some of these off the street 5 more shipments are being already sent behind it" he says in disgust as he leans against a steel girder he hears a click he turns around pulling his weapon from its holster and reveals that a portion of the wall is sliding open he hits the toggle switch that activates his flashlight on his gun and clears the room finding a chamber and what looks like a strangely dressed skeleton chained to a chair, Jace slowly approaches the hooded skeleton with his gun drawn he uses the flashlight to look around the room and sees an old newspaper sitting on a metal bench he goes and it is dated 20 years ago "what the hell is this" he says to himself as he pulls out a disposable camera and starts taking pictures of everything in the room and then he slowly approaches the hooded figure and sees what looks like a necklace glinting around its neck and Jace puts on some rubber gloves and takes off the necklace looking at the strange design and puts it in his pocket feeling something strange but familiar about the design "what the hell happened here" he says to himself.
