The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective

"It's been a long time since we last enjoyed our night and went out together like this again", Bryan said as he enjoyed his drink. April nodded as she agreed with Bryan "Yeah, Case no. 1006 gave us the busiest two months of this year". April (26 years old, Single) was the profiler in their team. Her role is to examine evidence at crime scenes in an effort to identify common behaviors and traits of a perpetrator.

"It was a tough job. I could still remember the vivid image of the victims brutally killed by that monster. Sometimes I dreamed about it at night. I have so many sleepless nights huhu", Rose shrugged as she complained about how she suffered sleepless nights for the past two months. Rose (28 years old, Single) the programmer; she is responsible in cyber security system, information access, collection of data and anything that requires the need of computer, internet and programs.

"Let's stop talking all about it. We are here to relax and enjoy our night together," June butted in as he didn't want to hear another complaint from the girls. He is also a police detective in the team (34 years old, Married). He worked together with Bryan, (30 years old, Single) the Detective Sergeant, in collecting first hand information in the field, talking with the witnesses and informants and collecting physical evidences and searching records that will able to help them in solving the cases.

Erick is the overall in command of this team and consider as the Brain. Through the collaborative efforts and contribution from each of them, Erick would analyze all the collected data gathered by his team members and would draw conclusions as to find the true culprit and perpetrator to solve the cases.

They were the members of the Team Alpha Cinco Task force also known as the "Magnificent 5". Their team was considered as one of those sophisticated team of specialists on the Violent Crimes Task force that investigates crimes and solves the toughest of cases throughout the country. It was headed by their team leader who at the same time is their Inspector Detective, Erick Lee. (They didn't know yet but in the near future, they will encounter the toughest and most challenging case that they will ever have in their lives and their expertise and teamwork will truly be tested by their faithful encounter with the Devilish Assassin Catseye.)

After their simple gathering in their office, the five of them decided to go out together for dinner and have fun. They ended up in a KTV bar and rented a private room. Bryan is the one who insisted in going there since he loves singing however singing does not love him back. The laughter erupted inside the room because of the out of tuned voice of Bryan singing the song entitled 'Survivor'. After his all out performance, the group gave him a big big round of applause accompanied by whistling.

"Thank you very much for listening in my wonderful voice ladies and gentlemen," Bryan said as he bowed down his head. "Guys, do you want more?",Bryan asked them confidently. The four of them stared with one another thinking of the same thought in mind and they instantly replied at the same time saying "No more, no more, no more!". Bryan pretended to be hurt by their responses and said ''Can't you just act a little, as if you really enjoy my performance? You are hurting my pride and ego guys. Is this what friends are for?". His reply just gathered another laughter inside the room.

"Correction, we are not friends, we are just colleagues," April rebutted in order to tease him more. Seeing his team acting like a little children teasing and joking with each other, Erick just shook his head and smiled. This was the reason why he really liked this team and glad to be with them. When it came to work they are really professional and serious and when they are outside working area they seemed to be different persons. This was the other side of his team that other people do not know. They also know how to enjoy and take it easy for a while.

The laughter stopped when they heard Erick, "Thank you guys for tonight. I really enjoyed being with you. I am really happy to have you as part of my team. And because I am really proud of you, tonight's treats is on me." The others smiled upon hearing this statement from him since they were also happy to be working with him.

"Nice boss, Thank you so much. let's do this again tomorrow", Bryan said cheerfully in which he earned a kick from April. "Ouch! What is that kick for?"Bryan complained to Ana as he massaged his leg. "For being talkative and opportunist." April replied matter-of-factly.

After the 7 hours of fun, they decided to go home and rest. Luckily tomorrow will be a weekend and a rest day for them especially to those who had so much to drink. As agreement, Erick was the one who will be paying for all their expenses. Since Erick was supporting Bryan who is very drunk right now, and June was also supporting Rose who is also drunk, he gave his wallet to April and requested her to pay for their bills.

April went to the cashier to pay. While waiting for the change, out of curiosity April decided to scan Erick's Wallet. She wanted to know if she will be able to see a picture of a girl in his wallet. Just like other girls in their department, she was also one of those who have crush on Erick. She really likes him however she doesn't want to show it because she is afraid that if he finds out it will be awkward for them. She does not have the courage yet to confess.

As she was busy scanning the wallet, she didn't notice that the four of them were already walking towards her. She saw a family picture of Eric. It was taken during his promotion 3 years ago. Eric is at the center wearing his Detective Uniform, on his left side is his mother hugging him on the sides while looking at him lovingly and his father is standing on the right side. They looked a happy family of three. She couldn't help but smile seeing the gentleness and love visible on that family picture. She couldn't see any other pictures. Now she concluded that Erick doesn't really have girlfriend yet. When she was about to close the wallet, she noticed another wallet size picture in one of the secret pocket. It was a picture of a young girl at around the age of 10. "Who is this child? His sister? But he doesn't have a sister. Is she his childhood sweetheart?, she uttered to herself as she was wondering who's this young girl could be in Erick's life.
