Chapter 1 - Heaven's Betrayal

 * THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS SCENES OF EXTREME VIOLENCE. VIEWERS DISCRETION IS ADVISED.

Dave and Sam arrive at the scene where Hayley was murdered. They both stopped at the opened cell and were shocked at what they just saw."

Sam:    (shocked)    What the hell happened here? Dave:    (angry)    Whoever did this have gone too far.

Narrator:        "Hayley's headless body was hanging on the wall of her prison cell. Next to her was a bloody drawing of an angel blowing a trumpet. Below her body was her head next to a bloody writing on the floor ""No One Betrays the Knights"".

Dave covers his mouth in disgust, and Sam makes a fist at her sides and gritting her teeth."

Dave:    (down)    And I thought Tull's methods were bad. But this..this is a whole new level.. Sam:    (angry)    Tull may be a deranged psychopath but even he wouldn't resolve into such hellish display.

Narrator:        Dave spots Nikhil taking pictures of the scene of the crime. He grabs Nikhil's shoulder.

Dave:    (angry)    Nikhil I need to know what the hell is going on here. How did this happen? Nikhil:    (down)    Even I am having a hard time understanding this siuation. Nikhil:    (neutral)    Hayley Rose, otherwise known as Hayley Tull, has just been convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment Nikhil:    (down)    Then suddenly on the night after she was sentenced, she killed in one of the most grusome way possible. This is really hard to wrap up inside my head. Dave:    (shocked)    So you're saying she was killed while we were at Cassie's place? Nikhil:    (down)    Afraid so. Whoever did this, timed it well.

Narrator:        Sam punches a wall out of frustration.

Sam:    (angry)    Where the hell were the guards? She's a damn celebrity anyone would expect better security than this.

Nikhil:    (down)    About that...

Narrator:        Nikhil points towards the corner of the room where there are paramedics tending to guards lying on the floor.

Nikhil:    (neutral)    It seems they were drugged and lost conciousness. It doesn't even appear to be a normal sedative. Nikhil:    (down)    Thankfully we got here in time otherwise....well.... Nikhil:    (neutral)    We will have to examine them to know what drug was used. Sam:    (angry)    Great. Our work is far from over.

Narrator:        Sam rubs her hand from punching the wall earlier.

Nikhil:    (neutral)    I take it you didn't ride the plane back to Texas? Sam:    (neutral)    Heard what happened when you contacted Dave. Sam:    (happy)    Cufflinks can't handle this on his own and I would never abandon my partner. Nikhil:    (happy)    Glad to have my Patronus back. I seriously thought we were going to go back to our mundane lives without you.

Narrator:        Dave interrupts their conversation with a cough.

Dave:    (angry)    Alright you two! Quit flirting already we have a job to do here. While you two were being Noah and Allie, the suspect would've been miles away already. Sam:    (angry)    Nobody's flirting here Reyes. We were just discussing important matters. Dave:    (angry)    If you call idle chatting "important matters" then I wish you would stop ignoring the job at hand. Sam:    (angry)    Nobody wants that psycho behind bars more than I do so get off your high horse.

Narrator:        Sam brushes pass Dave and storms off.

Dave:    (angry)    Hey! We're not done talking.

Narrator:        Nikhil smirks at Dave.

Dave:    (angry)    You have something to say Nikhil? Nikhil:    (happy)    Just that you have nothing to worry. The deputy isn't in my radar. Dave:    (angry)    The hell you talking about?

Narrator:        Nikhil shakes his head and pats Dave's shoulder.

Nikhil:    (neutral)    Come on. We have a killer to catch. Dave:    (angry)    Finally on the same page. Dave:    (neutral)    Before I forget. Have you checked if there are any clues from the security cameras?

Narrator:        Nikhil breathes a deep sigh.

Nikhil:    (down)    Unfortunately, the cameras were tampered. The only footages left were from the day before. Nikhil:    (neutral)    I had the tapes sent to Reza hoping he can somehow salvage them. Dave:    (neutral)    Nice work. Continue examining the seen to find any clues. At least find out what weapon was used. Nikhil:    (down)    Looking at the decapitated head, something really sharp must've used. It's a really clean cut and I don't think I'll ever forget it.

Narrator:        Dave sees Sam looking at Hayley's body being wrapped in a body bag and taken back away.

Dave:    (neutral)    Nikhil I'll let you handle things here. Nikhil:    (neutral)    Leave it to me. Oh and Dave. Dave:    (neutral)    What is it? Nikhil:    (happy)    You need to work on your woman skills. I think it's gotten rusty. Dave:    (angry)    It has not! Sam is not the same as the other women I've met. She's stubborn, blunt, and hot-tempered.

Narrator:        Nikhil raises an eyebrow at Dave and smirks.

Nikhil:    (happy)    I never said this was about Sam. Dave:    (shocked)    It's not...I wasn't referring to just her... Nikhil:    (happy)    Riiiigghhtt. Run along now, I still have a body to examine.

Narrator:        Nikhil follows the other forensics team members outside. Dave walks over to Sam who's surveying the bloody cell.

Dave:    (neutral)    Ahem

Narrator:        Sam looks at him with a frown.

Sam:    (angry)    You got something else to add to your assessment of me? I thought Mirasol had that part taken care of. Dave:    (down)    Look, I'm sorry about earlier. I know was being a jerk; This whole thing just really stressed me out. Sam:    (happy)    The Dave Reyes stressed? I thought I have seen everything. Dave:    (neutral)    Laugh all you want but doesn't change the fact that we are back to zero with this case. Sam:    (neutral)    For once I agree with you. Someone wanted Hayley dead. They weren't satisfied with her behind bars. Dave:    (shocked)    Is it possible that Hayley may know something and they killed her to keep her quiet? Sam:    (angry)    Yes it's a possibility. But the question is who are they.

Narrator:        Suddenly Nikhil comes rushing from the outside towards Sam and Dave.

Nikhil:    (shocked)    Both of you need to come outside and see this.

Narrator:        Nikhil leads them both behind the building.

Nikhil:    (neutral)    One of the officers looked around the building and called us from the van. Nikhil:    (down)    This is too much to handle in one day.

Narrator:        Sam and Dave stand frozen on their feet.

Dave:    (shocked)    What in the world is going on here?

Narrator:        Hanging on a tree, is the body of one of the guards with a chair just below him.

Sam:    (shocked)    Did he commit suicide? Dave:    (down)    It sure looks that way. Nikhil:    (down)    Actually there's another note carved on the tree.

Narrator:        Nikhil points to where there is a carving on the tree. Dave reads the note.

Dave:    (neutral)    "The traitor is no more. My soul tainted. My life I offer to the Knights of Gabriel". Sam:    (down)    This is getting creepier and creepier by the minute. Sam:    (angry)    And nowhere near solving the case.

Narrator:        Dave notices something shining near the fallen chair. He stands walks over there and wears a rubber glove and picks up the item. Sam walks towards him.

Sam:    (neutral)    Did you find something? Dave:    (down)    I'm not an expert with medieval history but I am pretty sure this looks like a sword.

Narrator:        Dave shows Sam the blood-covered sword he found. Nikhil approaches them both.

Nikhil:    (shocked)    My god! If we think back on how cleanly the body was cut, a sword matches it perfectly! This is the murder weapon! Sam:    (shocked)    So this guy murdered Hayley and killed himself?! Dave:    (down)    I think we are dealing with something bigger than any of us would've thought.

Narrator:        All three of them look up at the hanged body. With more unanswered questions in their heads. What kind of betrayal did Hayley Rose do? Who are the Knights of Gabriel?

Chapter 2 - An Abyss of Questions
Narrator:        After gathering all available evidences in the crime scene and both the bodies of Hayley Rose and the hanged guard has been brought to the station, Sam and Dave return to LAPD station. Back in Captain Beckham's office, she glares daggers at Sam and Dave. Captain Beckham:    (angry)    Please can someone explain to me what the hell is going on? The report sent to me is like a gag show! The suspect that we just captured, was killed in a secured prison facility. And if that wasn't enough, her own killer killed himself. I find this level of comedy to be very entertaining. Dave:    (neutral)    Captain if I may speak? We believe there's foul play involved; that this was a well orchestrated murder. Captain Beckham:    (angry)    And what gave it away? The fact that the killer has already escaped to the afterlife? How in the hell can we catch him now? Narrator:        Dave replies in a low voice. Dave:    (neutral)    ....using a stairway to Heaven? Narrator:        Sam stomps on Dave's foot, he winces and tries to control his expression. Captain Beckham:    (angry)    What was that?! Dave:    (angry)    I said this is something like breakeven...I guess. Narrator:        Dave glares at Sam and taps his foot to lessen the pain. Sam raises her hand. Sam:    (neutral)    With all due respect Captain, we found 3 vital clues that led us to believe there's someone else behind this. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    And what are they, Marshal? Sam:    (neutral)    Firstly, when we found Hayley's body, there were drawings in blood of angels blowing on trumpets. There must be some significance of why this was drawn. Secondly, the sword was an item no ordinary guard could've obtained so definitely this isn't a one-man show. And lastly, his goodbye note on the tree. There was a name there. Narrator:        Dave recites the note he read before. Dave:    (down)    "The traitor is no more. My soul tainted. My life I offer to the Knights of Gabriel". Dave:    (neutral)    Also, if the killer was going to commit suicide anyway, why were the cameras tampered? Sam:    (angry)    Other than the clues we found, we need to find what was the guard's motive to do this. I doubt he is an just upset fan about his idol, who  was actually a criminal so he decided to kill her. Dave:    (happy)    Didn't expect you to be someone who knows what fans can do Marshal. Narrator:        Sam stomps on Dave's foot, again. Dave winces and whispers to her. Dave:    (angry)    If you do that one more time I swear I'm going to... Narrator:        Sam smirks at him and whispers back. Sam:    (happy)    What's the worst thing you can do to me, Cufflinks? Narrator:        Captain Beckham clears her throat to get their attention. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    If you two are done playing, I have something here for both of you. Narrator:        Captain Beckham places on her table a binder. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    Before you open this binder, I have a question for Massey. Sam:    (neutral)    Yes ma'am? Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    Your role here should've already ended when Tull died. You are not obligated to stay to resolve this new case. Narrator:        Captain Beckham crosses her arms and looks at Sam directly. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    What is it you want to do? Do you want to return to your normal life in Texas? Or stay here in LA, far from your comfort zone? Narrator:        Sam was silent and staring at the ground. Dave looks at her and gently stomps on her foot. She looks up at him and he smirks and mouths to her. Dave:    (happy)    It's payback. Narrator:        Sam grins and looks back at Captain Beckham with determination. Sam:    (happy)    I am not going anywhere. Hayley Rose is still a Tull. I will not stop until we find whoever killed her. Narrator:        Captain Beckham nods and looks at Dave. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    Do you have anything to add, Reyes? Narrator:        Dave looks at Beckham and then turns to looks at Sam and grins. Dave:    (happy)    I couldn't ask for a better partner. Narrator:        Captain Beckham sighs heavily. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    I had a feeling this is how it will turn out. Dave:    (shocked)    What do you mean? Narrator:        Captain Beckham takes the binder and pulls out a paper. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    This is the official paper that states you are both assigned to this case. I pulled some strings to request for Marshal Massey to extend her stay with us and help with this case. Narrator:        Sam and Dave look at each other and smile. As if he was in a trance, Dave snaps himself awake and offers a hand to Sam. Dave:    (happy)    Glad to be partners again Marshal. Narrator:        Sam takes Dave's hand and shakes it firmly. Sam:    (happy)    Likewise Detective. Captain Beckham:    (neutral)    Now let's get this case closed, move out. Narrator:        Sam and Dave look at Captain Beckham and give her a salute. They started leaving her office, when she suddenly calls out to them. Captain Beckham:    (happy)    Don't disappoint me you two. Sam:    (happy)    We got this Captain. Narrator:        Sam and Dave exit Captain Beckham's office, and head toward Reza and Mirasol. Nikhil comes out from another door, throws some papers on his desk  and then flops down on his chair. Nikhil:    (down)    I am so drained. After this case, I am seriously going to request a long vacation from the Captain. Dave:    (happy)    Don't think the office will function properly without you Nikhil. Nikhil:    (down)    My brain won't function properly if it's fried from overwork. Nikhil:    (neutral)    However, my brain has some information to give  you both. Sam:    (neutral)    And what would that be? Narrator:        Nikhil grabs a paper from the pile he threw on his desk and hands it to Dave. Nikhil:    (neutral)    The name of our killer is Clifford Johnson. Age 25, Been working as a prison guard for a year now. Also, I examined the blood on the sword and his clothes. Nikhil:    (down)    It's a match with Hayley. Narrator:        Dave sighs heavily and rubs his forehead. Dave:    (neutral)    Thank you very much for looking into this Nikhil. Please continue examining the evidences. Nikhil:    (down)    With a huge smile on my face. Narrator:        Dave walks over to Reza. Dave:    (neutral)    How's the progress with the tapes Reza? Reza:    (down)    This is going to take awhile. The tapes were overwritten up to the day before. So anything during the murder can't be seen. Dave:    (neutral)    As long as you can recover it. I feel like there's something there that will help us with this investigation. Reza:    (down)    I'll do what I can but no promises. Narrator:        Reza stretches, gets up and walks towards the pantry. Reza:    (happy)    I'll just go and grab myself something to fuel my batteries for the long haul. Narrator:        Mirasol walks to Sam and Dave with a paper in hand. Mirasol:    (neutral)    I checked the background of Clifford Johnson. He appears to be a decent guy according to the records. Average grades in school. No felony reports. No obvious signs of abuse. Sam:    (neutral)    Sounds like your typical good guy. Sam:    (angry)    Who just happens to be a Psychopath and suddenly went berserk on Hayley. Mirasol:    (neutral)    That's where it led me to believe his mind was probably influenced by another source other than the environment he grew up in. Dave:    (shocked)    You mean like brainwashed? Mirasol:    (neutral)    Brainwashed, peer pressure, threatened, call it what it is, but the fact is something must've happened to him in the one year he left his home. Sam:    (neutral)    Guess our next move is to ask the other guards about him. Dave:    (neutral)    I agree with Sam. I'll see if I can contact McKenzie. She's the one assigned to guard them. Narrator:        Mirasol looks at Sam and Dave and raises an eyebrow. Mirasol:    (neutral)    I notice a slight change to the tension between the two of you. Dave:    (shocked)    What do you mean? Mirasol:    (neutral)    Like now, Dave did not hesitate to agree with Sam when previously he will try to find an excuse to use a different option. Sam:    (happy)    Did he really do that before? Dave:    (shocked)    That's not what– Mirasol:    (neutral)    Also there's less hostility between you two, but avoiding eye contacts. Dave:    (angry)    Now hold on– Mirasol:    (neutral)    Not to mention the moment you both walked out of Captain Beckham's office, you both maintained a certain distance between each other. Not too far yet not too close. Narrator:        Sam and Dave subconciously steps slightly away from each other, flustered and looking away. Dave:    (angry)    There's nothing going on here. We're just getting into terms so we can get this case closed. Narrator:        Nikhil chuckles from his desk. Nikhil:    (happy)    Mirasol, from now on, you're my hero!! Sam:    (angry)    We don't have time for this idle chitchat. We need to get to the bottom of this case and we won't go anywhere if we keep joking around. Dave:    (angry)    Sam's right. Let's get to work people. Narrator:        Mirasol raises her eyebrow again. Mirasol:    (neutral)    That's the second time you agreed. Narrator:        Before Dave can retort, Reza comes in and plops some pancakes on his table. Reza:    (happy)    Alright, I have coffee, pancakes, and have replied to all my messages in the Crown and the Flame forum. Nothing can go between me and these tapes. Narrator:        Everyone was dead silent. Reza:    (shocked)    What's with the doom and gloom? If you guys want pancakes, I can make more. Nikhil:    (happy)    Reza, someday you'll understand the little things. Reza:    (shocked)    Understand what? It's not about the pancake? Narrator:        Suddenly one of the officers calls for Sam and Dave. Officer:    (shocked)    Detective Reyes,Marshal! Officer McKenzie just contacted us, saying that the guards have woken up. Dave:    (neutral)    Send her a message, we'll be there in a few minutes. Officer:    (neutral)    Yes sir! Narrator:        The officer hurries back to his desk. Dave clears his throat and looks at Reza. Dave:    (angry)    Reza I will need those tapes ready as soon as possible. Reza:    (shocked)    These things can't be rushed Dave! It needs finesse and care. Narrator:        Dave didn't hear the comment and leaves the office. Sam nods at them and follows Dave. Nikhil pats Reza's shoulder. Nikhil:    (neutral)    Don't worry my friend. Sam and Dave are walking into uncharted territory. Let's give them space and eventually sparks will finally fly. Reza:    (shocked)    Did they get a stomach bug? Narrator:        Mirasol chokes on her coffee and coughs wildly. Mirasol:    (angry)    Reza I swear to god, your brain is that of a child! Reza:    (angry)    Hey! I have you know that I can enter bars with no problem! Nikhil:    (neutral)    But they still ask you for your ID don't they? Reza:    (shocked)    Well... Yeah! But it proves I'm old enough! Narrator:        Nikhil and Mirasol both sigh and continue with their tasks. Reza:    (angry)    What is this?! Gang up on Reza day?! Narrator:        On the road, Sam and Dave drive through LA's traffic. There's awkward silence in the air. Dave clears his throat and gives Sam an apologetic look. Dave:    (down)    Sorry about what happened back there. Those guys got ahead of themselves. Narrator:        Sam shrugs and looks at his direction. Sam:    (neutral)    Don't worry about it. It wasn't something to fret over. Sam:    (happy)    Like I said before, they make the place lively. Dave:    (happy)    I will never understand how you can see it like that. Sam:    (happy)    Change your perspective a bit and you'll experience less stress. Dave:    (neutral)    I'll keep that in mind. Narrator:        There was silence again but with a more peaceful atmosphere. Sam leans on the side of door while Dave continues driving. She glances out the window and notices Dave's reflection on it. She stares at it for a few seconds and shakes her head. Sam:    (neutral)    Think those guards will give us some answers? Dave:    (neutral)    Only one way to find out. Narrator:        After a few more minutes, they finally arrive at the hospital. Officer McKenzie greets them at the entrance. She briefs them of what's been happening to the guards since they woke up. Dave:    (neutral)    Got some info for me McKenzie? Officer McKenzie:    (neutral)    Yes sir. The victims names are Luke and George. Both have been Corrections Officers for 10 and 13 years respectively. They were the ones who trained Clifford Johnson when he joined last year. Narrator:        McKenzie leads them to a room where she speaks to the officer standing there. He nods and unlocks the door. Officer McKenzie:    (neutral)    Both woke up almost at the same time. However, their reactions to the drug seem to be different. Dave:    (neutral)    In what way? Officer McKenzie:    (neutral)    Well one of themis still a bit dazed, but can manage to talk. The other one.... Narrator:        As McKenzie opens the door of the room where the guards are held, one of them shouts. Luke:    (angry)    DON'T COME NEAR ME! LET GO OF THAT SUITCASE! Officer McKenzie:    (angry)    Hey! I thought I told you to get a doctor while I meet the Detective and the Marshal?! Officer:    (shocked)    We did! They are on their way now! Narrator:        As if on cue, a doctor rushes into the room. He prepares a syringe and gently inject it into the guards arm. He slowly calms down and falls asleep. Dave walks over to the doctor and offers him his hand. The doctor reluctantly shakes his hand with a puzzled look. Dave:    (neutral)    LAPD Major Crimes Detective Dave Reyes and this is my partner Deputy U.S .Marshal Sam Massey. Thanks for calming him down Doctor. Doctor:    (shocked)    Ah yes no wonder I recognized you both! You were all over the news for putting down that crazy killer. Sam:    (happy)    Dave you never told me we're already celebrities. Dave:    (happy)    May have slipped my mind. Narrator:        The doctor shakes hands with Sam but doesn't let go. He gazes at her with jaw slightly dropped. Sam:    (shocked)    Is there something on my face? Narrator:        The doctor doesn't reply as if in a trance. Dave puts an arm on the doctor's shoulder and pulls him away. Dave:    (neutral)    Are the patients going to be alright doctor? Doctor:    (shocked)    Ah yes of course! We are doing our best to make sure we can stabilize him. Doctor:    (neutral)    Let him rest for awhile. We'll continue our examination as scheduled. Call me if he loses control again. Dave:    (neutral)    Thank you very much. Hopefully we don't have to. Narrator:        Dave shakes the doctor's hand again but doesn't let go of his shoulder then leads him out. Sam looks at them walking out when suddenly something grabs her jacket. She jerks away fast and looks at where she was grabbed. The second guard was lying on the bed next to where she was standing. He looks pale and fatigued. George:    (neutral)    You're Marshal Massey right? Sam:    (neutral)    That's right. We came to ask you a few questions about what happened the night you were drugged. Only if you are able to answer. George:    (happy)    Don't worry about me ma'am. My time hasn't come yet. I'll answer as much as I can remember. Narrator:        Dave comes back and walks over. Dave:    (neutral)    We'll make this quick so you can rest. How are you feeling by the way? George:    (down)    My head feels like it's about to explode, it's as if I chugged a whole bottle of Bourbon in one go. Sam:    (happy)    You think that's bad? Let's have a drink sometime and I'll show you what real hangovers are. Narrator:        Dave clears his throat. Dave:    (neutral)    Let's get back to the topic. Do you remember anything from that night? Anything suspicious at all? George:    (neutral)    Seemed like any other day. The two of us and Cliff, were just doing our night shift. George:    (down)    Although I did hear a bit of a commotion in the pantry. Sam:    (shocked)    What kind of commotion? George:    (down)    Well those 2 do bicker alot recently but the other night was worse. George:    (neutral)    When I went to stop them I suddenly felt dizzy and lost consciousness. Dave:    (neutral)    Did you eat or drink anything before that? George:    (down)    Just the coffee Cliff gave me. George:    (shocked)    Don't tell me that Cliff... Dave:    (down)    I have a strong feeling that's the case. Narrator:        George puts his hands on his face. George:    (down)    He was a good kid at first. Enthusiastic. Hardworking. Timid yes but he gets his job  done right. George:    (happy)    Heck even the inmates befriended him. George:    (down)    Until six months ago he started acting strange. Sam:    (neutral)    In what way? George:    (neutral)    He became more anxious I guess. Always restless, fiddling with his hands. He also became more irritable which causes him and Luke to bicker. Dave:    (neutral)    Do you remember if he mentioned anything in particular? Like medications? George:    (down)    Not that I know of. I do remember one time he was talking to himself in the mirror saying weird things. Sam:    (angry)    Our fella just keeps getting interesting. Dave:    (neutral)    What did he say George? Narrator:        George closes his eyes trying to remember the event. George:    (neutral)    He said "We won't let that traitor get away. The Elder will come and together we will gift the sinner eternal life" Narrator:        Suddenly Dave's phone rings. Dave checks it and sees Reza's name. Dave:    (neutral)    This better be good Reza. Reza:    (shocked)    Dave! You and Sam need to get back to HQ now! Dave:    (shocked)    Why? What happened? Reza:    (shocked)    I finally retrieved the overwritten tapes and Dave, there's more going on than we thought! Narrator:        What did Reza find in those tapes? Is it a clue to solving this case? Is Dave not acting like himself?
