Pray for Daylight part IV
#4 of Pray for Daylight
Six: New allies
Fredericks got in early to work for once. He needed to beat Phillips there so he could check some of the case files himself. He didn't trust her judgment that none of them had anything to do with the Deus Vitae case. He was indeed right to have doubted her honesty when he found three former cases he hadn't even bothered with. All because he was pissed at the chief for basically tying his hands on a big murder case. Three separate incidents were the vics had been apparently killed by vampires. He wondered how many deaths were on the hands of the members of that club. Would Phillips join them in their evil acts? He was musing when his phone went off. It was Dr Forest, the M.E.
"Forest? What do you want and how the hell did you know I was in?"
"Been waiting for you. Something's up with that murder case of yours."
"What?"
"Well I found signs that the girl had been sexually assaulted so I tell that sex crimes captain right. He blew me off. Told me it wasn't his case. Now don't get me wrong but isn't he suppose to pick up things like this?"
"Yeah. He should. Why they created that department in the first place. Too much of this kind of thing to leave to everyone. They wanted specialists. People who could stomach that kind of thing and still catch the bad guys. People level headed enough to actually catch them. You try anyone else in that department?"
"No. Didn't need Captain Lewinski on my case."
"I got a friend there. I'll try asking him about it."
"Thanks. I didn't know who to trust in this place Fredericks. Guess I got it right in trying you."
"Know how you feel. I'm not even sure if I should tell my friend but it's worth a shot. My partner's not to be trusted anymore by the way."
"Really? Ok. Thanks for the warning. I'll file a normal report on the kid but if you and whoever could come down I think we need to talk about what's going on."
"Sure thing."
He frowned as he hung up. He guessed his trust no one instincts were spot on. Hopefully his friend Detective Willis would still be ok. If not it was just him and Johnny against the darkness.
Fredericks found the Alsatian knee deep in paperwork, unusual for someone who itched to be out in the field. Captain Lewinski wasn't around so Fredericks took the chance to talk to his friend.
"Hey Dog."
"Well if it isn't Jason "weird shit" Fredericks. How's life? Still ignoring all the unsolvable weirdness coming your way?"
"Not anymore. Need to ask you about something."
"Sure. Not like I'm doing anything important right now. Captain's got me doing all the paperwork over again. Some computer glitch or something."
"Really?"
"Yeah. This bites big time and not in the good way."
Fredericks couldn't help but grin. Ever since that one party where Willis had been discovered with the zebra that later became his wife in the janitor's closet playing rather rough there had been an increase in the number of comments with the word bite in them. Willis just brushed it off. He was a good guy.
"Sounds suspicious when you add in what I know."
"What do you mean Jason?"
"Well... The M.E. just told me that my murder vic was assaulted sexually. Said she told Captain Lewinski about it and he brushed her off saying it wasn't his department or something."
"What!? You're fucking kidding me! Told me we'd had a shortage of cases. Why I'm stuck doing this shit!"
"He lied. M.E.'s probably got a whole load of cases down there for you. Hey where's your partner by the way?"
"You didn't hear? He quit."
"Where's the bad guy Williams quit?"
"Yep. I was as shocked as you are. He just upped and quit saying he couldn't take it anymore."
"Fuck. What's up with this place?"
"No idea Jason. So the M.E.'s got a body for me huh?"
"Yeah. Thing is I'd like to stay on the case."
"Why? Didn't think this was your kinda scene Jason."
"My partner and I are investigating this club, the Deus Vitae and..."
"Deus Vitae?"
"Yeah. You know something about the place?"
"It was Williams' new favorite hangout. Soon after he joined he quit the force."
"This just gets more and more fucked up the deeper I dig. I mean my partner went there once and now she's like a zombie or something. Got bite marks on her neck as well and..."
"Come on. What you trying to tell me?"
"Vampires."
"Yeah and I'm a virgin."
"Don't believe me then but some weird shit is going down involving that club. Everyone who gets involved either suddenly loses interest, is told to back off or worse. My only good lead turned up dead yesterday. He was a member of that club."
"So?"
"I think he was willing to talk to me about what goes on there. You heard what happened to your predecessors right?"
"Yeah. One capped himself and the other quit just like Williams has."
"Well your quitter apparently now works at the Deus Vitae."
"Fuck no!"
"Fuck yes."
"What the fuck is going on here?"
"That's what I intend to find out. Glad to see you're still yourself. Been running short on people to trust."
"So has the M.E. by the sounds of it."
"No shit. So you in?"
"Hell yeah Jason I'm in. I mean if the captain's in on this and stopping me from doing my job then I want to know what's going on. We got a couple of problems though."
"Like what?"
"Your partner and my captain."
"We'll work round them for now. Your captain ain't here at the moment so leave a note that you got a tip for a new case, something far away from the Deus Vitae. And my partner knows I get in late so I'm okay for the next few hours."
"Alright. Lets go see the M.E. then."
They arrived together a fact that made Dr Forest smile. Normally the Bear had little reason to smile, she did work in the morgue after all. Personally Fredericks hated the morgue. All those lines of freezers against the far wall were creepy for a start and then there was the blanket of cold that lay over the place. It was almost a dead chill, quite literally. What hit him worse was the smell. Sure if there's a decayed corpse you expect it but even when no bodies were out there was this smell like stale blood. It made him want to vomit more than any crime scene he'd ever witnessed. It also led to one of the things he hated about Willis. Willis could walk into this place and act normal like nothing was going on. Fredericks half expected to be attacked by zombies or something.
"Glad to see you and your friend could make it detective."
"Thanks. So what's up?"
"My assistant that's what. She's been falsifying reports."
"What!?" Said Williams and Fredericks in unison.
"She's been ruling accidental death a lot and handing dead rape victims to normal cops especially the younger ones, say 12 to 14."
"No cases my ass." Declared Willis.
"Indeed." She continued. "I took last week off and that's when a lot of cases just disappeared."
Fredericks frowned, it was getting to be a very familiar thing for him to do. "Any of these victims have bite marks on their necks Doc?"
"A few. I re-examined them in my free time. Those that haven't already been released to families anyway. What's the significance?"
"Jason here believes Vampires are on the loose."
"Shut up Willis. He's right though. This all ties in with the Deus Vitae club and word on the street says Vampires."
"Vampires?" She shrugged. "You do deal with the weird cases don't you?"
"Yeah. That's me. This one seems to have some credence though."
"And I still think you have either got your head up you ass or you've been smoking crack again Jason."
"You're not helping me here Willis." He looked at Dr Forest. "All the bite mark vics been assaulted sexually?"
She checked a notebook on her desk. "Yes. Yes they have."
"And all were under 16 I'll bet."
"You're right again Detective Fredericks. How did you know?"
"Just following the facts. We've got to shut that club down."
"How Jason? Seems that anyone who gets near the place winds up dead or something else. You said your partner lost all interest in investigating the place after her visit."
"She did indeed. Normally she's pushing me to solve the unsolvables that get dumped on me. Not any more. She lied to me about connections to previous cases as well. Hey Willis."
"Yeah."
"You know how long that club's been open?"
"No. Why?"
"I'd like to check the archive files for murders and assaults see when this mess all began."
Seven: Living Dead.
Willis and Fredericks sat in the records room looking for any and all files connected with the Deus Vitae. They weren't having much luck at all.
"Find anything Willis?"
"No. You?"
"Nothing. Almost as if someone doesn't want us to find anything."
"Yeah. Seems weird."
"Too weird."
"Your department though eh Jason?"
"Oh can that crap will you. This is serious."
"Can't take a joke?"
"Just not in the mood for them right now. I'm going to lose my partner if I don't sort this shit out. I like her Willis, best partner I've ever had."
"But you complain about her.... Oh I see."
"Yeah. And here I am making dates with a guy."
"What? You've gone queer?"
"I'm gonna owe him and he likes me."
Willis laughed. "Man that is rich. That is just fucking rich."
"Say anything to anyone else and I'll kill you Willis."
"Oh no man my lips are sealed. Just don't piss me off you hear?"
Fredericks smiled and shook his head. "Look at us. Pair of idiots. Who made us cops?"
"Idiots. They like to stick together."
They both had a good laugh at that. They needed it. They had no leads beyond speculation and rumors. Fredericks was convinced it was vampires. Everyone involved with the club either got mindfucked or died. Sometimes laughter helped in bad situations. Didn't help sort them out, it just helped.
"Hey Willis."
"Yeah?"
"You and your wife watch horror movies right?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Well you must know all about Vampires then."
"What are you taking?"
"I'm not on drugs I'm serious. I want to know about them. Habits, strengths, weaknesses stuff like that."
Willis looked at him as if he'd just announced he was pregnant and expecting twins.
"Don't look at me like that I'm serious."
"So you said."
"I am Willis. Come on. What's it gonna hurt?"
Willis sighed. "Ok then."
"Thanks."
"So you want a basic guide to vampires then?"
"Yeah that'll work."
Willis shook his head and took a deep breath. "I still think your nuts."
"Yeah whatever. Just get to it."
"Well they're the creatures of the night or whatever and they feast upon blood in order to survive. They bite people's necks and drain them of their blood. They're like predators and we're they prey. Also a lot of the stuff about them has them as sexual predators as well, you know seduce the young maiden and the feed from her."
"Sexual predators?"
"Yeah. Apparently the bite, or kiss of the vampire is highly sensual. You don't feel pain just a kind of ecstasy."
"So they seduce people, fuck 'em then drain 'em?"
"About that yeah."
"Well that's fucked up. Seems to fit the rumors of the Deus Vitae being a kind of sex club or something."
"I guess so if Vampires were real. This is just a bunch of fucked up weirdoes."
"They also supposedly have mental or hypnotic powers and shit."
"That explains the people acting weird."
"Doesn't explain you Jason."
"Stop fucking around and get serious. Anything else?"
"Well they die in daylight so they sleep during the day, in coffins generally."
"Alright. Daylight is a weakness. I know things like Garlic and crosses and holy water and shit. Anything else?"
"Fire. Stake through the heart kills them. Usual horror movie stuff."
"Cool." Something was nagging at Fredericks but he couldn't think of what. Then it hit him. Daylight. "Shit."
"What?"
"Me and Phillips went to the Deus Vitae before she went weird."
"Yeah so?"
"Well the owner was there. He opened the fucking door."
"You knocked didn't you?" Willis was confused.
"I thought he was a vampire. This was during the day. You know daylight."
Willis shook his head. "Told you you were crazy."
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK!"
"Hey calm down."
"I feel like an idiot."
"It's probably what these freaks want people to think. I mean using the whole vampire thing to keep people away. They're probably just bribing the right people and as for the acting weird, maybe they can actually brainwash people kinda like a cult."
"Yeah. You're right. Fuck! Too much stress I guess. I need a holiday."
"Not until we solve this one. If this place is as corrupt as it seems we're gonna be working overtime to sort this out."
"Yeah. This first then a long holiday. Vampires." He shook his head.
"Hey no worries Jason. I was actually starting to wonder if you were right at one point. Glad we got that sorted though. Can stick with badges and guns now. Don't need no flaming torches and stakes." He smiled.
"Yeah." Fredericks smiled back. It was stupid when you thought about it but now he'd gotten over this whole vampire thing he just wanted to bring these freaks to justice.
Meanwhile Dr Forest was in her office making adjustments to all the files her assistant had tampered with. She sighed as she glanced over the large amount of work she had left.
"I should have become a stripper like my mother." She looked up as she heard the sound of one of the freezer drawers being opened. She glanced at the clock. It was too early for it to be her assistant, Molly. Normally she only came in at 1pm when Dr Forest was working here as well, unless there was a situation which warranted having her around earlier. Dr Forest got up to investigate. It could be Molly, she mused, after all she is altering records. What better time to do it that the hours she isn't supposed to be around, although she had to have been around all hours during Dr Forest's absence, but that was a different matter. The sight that awaited her wasn't one she had even considered and definitely wasn't prepared for. Felicia Stone had climbed out of the freezer and was stood there looking around slowly. The young feline smiled when she saw Dr Forest her cice blue eyes meeting the doctors soft, brown ones. "Don't be afraid Jessica."
"H-how do you know my name?"
She smiled and started to walk over to the doctor. "I can smell you fear. There is no need to be afraid of me Jessica. I love you. I want you. I know you want me too."
Dr Forest just couldn't speak, couldn't move. Her words were cold but they were laced with something calming, something sensual, something that was putting her at ease. The girl was indeed pretty. Her small young body seemed almost perfect with its small breasts and slim lines. Her pussy lips looked so inviting. Dr Forest found herself wondering how they'd feel against her tongue, how she would taste. Her body was responding to those thoughts by getting aroused. Her temperature went up and her own pussy started to become wet in anticipation. Felicia smiled and continued her slow walk over. As she did so two more of the freezer doors slid open allowing another two young female felines to join Felicia. The Doctor didn't move when Felicia knelt down in front of her and began to slowly undo her pants. The other two felines made their way over to the doctor, the same cold, yet sexual look in their eyes. Dr Forest was shivering and not due to the cold of the morgue. Felicia pulled down the doctor's pants and panties revealing her pussy. Dr Forest shivered as the cold air touched her wet lips and a soft moan escaped her lips. Felicia began to lick softly as the exposed lips, her small, rough tongue teasing Dr Forest making her shiver and moan yet again. The other two felines had reached their prey and were starting to slowly remove the rest of her clothing exposing the Doctor's round, full breasts to the cold atmosphere of the room, the nipples were already hard, almost begging for attention from the other two felines. They were only too happy to oblige, but only after smiling to each other and slowly licking their fangs did they start to suck on the hard nipples causing Dr Forest to moan more, her cries echoing around the morgue. Felicia continued her ministrations her tongue now slipping in between the pussy lips of the doctor now exploring her inner walls with that rough feline tongue. Dr Forest continued to moan and didn't protest at all when the three young felines made her lay back onto the cold, hard floor. One of the two sucking on her nipples shifted position until she was straddling Dr Forest's face, rubbing her young, pink pussy over the bear's muzzle. Dr Forest was lost in ecstasy and ran her tongue over those young lips before delving right inside causing in the young feline to cry out slightly as the tongue ran around her inner walls with such feverish force as Dr Forest moaned and writhed on the floor, lost to the world completely. Felicia began to suck on the doctor's clit pushing the normally clinical Dr forest over the edge and cry out loud enough to wake the dead. Felicia grinned as she tasted the sweet juices that came with the orgasm, but once she'd finished drinking that she plunged her fangs into Dr Forest's inner thigh causing the doctor to once again cry out. The other two felines also joined in on the feeding, one biting her chest the other shifting to get at her neck. Dr Forest was still writhing and moaning in pleasure, albeit this time for a different reason. The sensual pleasure of the sex followed by the kiss of the vampire caused her to orgasm a second time. All three felines grinned slightly as they fed, enjoying the power they could wield.
Fredericks and Willis had given up their search for any past files with any relevance to the Deus Vitae. Whatever was going on the people behind it were covering their tracks very well.
"Hey Jason?"
"Yeah?"
"Would Dr Forest have past files on autopsies?"
"Yeah. She would. Good thinking."
"Why you came to me for help isn't it?"
"What?"
"I'm the brains you're the other guy."
"Brains? You? You wish Willis."
"I didn't see you coming up with any good ideas."
"Fuck you."
"No thanks I'm married and besides aren't..."
"Don't. Just don't."
Willis grinned. Fredericks frowned. Both of their expressions changed when they got to the morgue again. The sight before them was Dr Forest naked, lying on the floor looking very pale indeed. The air was filled with the very obvious scent of sex mingled with the coppery one of fresh blood.
"Shit!" Exclaimed Willis and Fredericks moved to the doctor's side
"Willis get an ambulance. She's alive but barely."
Willis nodded and headed for the nearest phone and began making the call. Fredericks looked the doctor over noting the three bite marks on her thigh, chest and neck.
"Fucking freaks."
"What?" said Willis coming back over.
"Look." He pointed out the bite marks. "Fucked her, drained her, left her for dead."
"And stole some bodies by the looks of it Jason." Willis motioned to the open freezers.
"Fuck. These people will do anything to cover their tracks."
"We've gotta stop them Jason. We have to."
"I know."
