Devin stood outside in his Ghost attire. Short black mini dress with fishnets, black strappy heels and a fur coat, make up and hair done.

"God, where are they?" she huffed in frustration.

Soon she spotted two figures coming down the sidewalk.

"Its about time," she snapped.

"Fashionably late, darling. You would understand," Angelo smirked.

Devin smirked back before pulling out two masks from her back.

"Since its a masquerade, you'll need your covers," she spoke.

Angelo and Chris took the masks and put them on.

"Misery and Ash are already inside. Demon has men on all corners of the club just in case," Ghost said.

"You called Demon?" Chris asked.

"He's willing to help anyway he can," Ghost said, pulling his mask on. "Sixx okayed it. Finding Roadkill will be tricky."

"Alright then. Like Michael Keaton said, let's turn on the juice and see what shakes loose," Angelo said and the three of them made their way in.

*****

Music played loud against the speakers, and bodies danced, talked, drank, ate, or kissed.

Ricky observed everyone from the corner of the club, bored out of his mind.

He had spotted some people enter, smirking when the taller male entered, wearing his black dark mask.

He smirked mischievously. "This is gonna be fun."

Agent Cerulli, along with the dncer and other agent, approached the bar, where his little friend, Matt, stood with his boyfriend, the bar tender.

Ricky knew he told, but he wouldn't hurt him. If anything, he did good leading the FBI on a bit.

Ricky then looked over at where Misery and Ash say, laughing with some friends and other clowns, all wearing masks.

That's when he noticed Ash wore a mask similar to Agent Cerulli's.

Coincidence? Who knows. But Ricky knows he's smart. He'll most definitely see it as a sort of sign.

To Ricky, Agent Cerulli is very easy to read.

Ricky smirked and decided to hang around another area of the club.

"We'll be seeing each other soon, Agent Cerulli," he smirked.

"Alright, we know our places," Angelo said.

Everyone nodded before the door opened and Danny poked his head in.

"The clowns are at the eating booths," he said.

"Your guys are at the doors?" Kuza asked.

"And Demon's. No one gets in our out without their say," Danny spoke.

"Thank you,"Matt nodded.

He nodded back and left.

"Let's roll," Ghost said, and they exit the office and meet with Andy and Juliet outside.

"Good luck," He said.

Chris nodded and they walked in different directions.

Angelo and Devin in the lounge area, Matt and Kuza at the bar, and  Andy on the dance floor.

Chris walked around the eating booths, then spotted something that caught his eyes.

A woman with red and black hair in tails, wearing a mask similar to his, wearing a black leather dress.

She smiked at me, then motioned me to follow her with her hand.

Chris felt he needed to follow her. He gulped and decided to walk towards her, and she smirked and walked further.

He frowned and tried to catch up with her.

"Does she... Want me to chase her?" Thought Chris as he waked past the masked people.

The woman laughed as she scurried away, smirking at Chris.

She was enjoying the chase, teasing him.

Chris chased the playful woman, only to lose sight of her behind some silk curtains.

He frowned and looked around, before he spotted her at the eating booths, arms wrapped around her as a man with green hair and face painted.

Misery and Ash... Its them.

Chris pursed his lips and approached them.

*Meanwhile...*

Alex Dorame frowned as she read the tox screen results read before her.

"That's weird...." she mumbled.

"What's weird?" A voice spoke and she turned to see Tyler walk in holding a tray.

"Oh, hey. And I just got Emma Roberts's tox screen results back. She didn't have any blood left in her system," she said.

"I mean, most bodies Roadkill leaves lose a lot of blood," Tyler said.

"Yeah, but, she didn't have any traces in her, aside from the ," she

"You suggest exsanguination?" Tyler asked.

"Probably," She said. "What did you find?"

"Some strange marks on the bone. Jordan's taking a look at them, see if he can get an exact shape," he said, showing a bone in the microscope.

Alex observed them.

"They look like teeth marks... But very strange ones," she said, eyebrows scrunched. "Like animal marks..."

"You think Roadkill threw our victim to be eaten by animals?" Tyler asked.

"Its hard to tell, especially since these marks are placed at certain points, not at random... Swab them to see what DNA we could get from the marks and see if Johnnie can find out where they're from, then have Dr. Balz examine them, see if he could identify them," Alex said. "I'll get these results to Dr. Malarkey."

"Gotcha," Tyler said. "Just hoping this doesn't turn into some cannibal case."

"You and me both," Alex sighed as he left.

She then looked back at the tox screen, frowning.

"Something just isn't right here," she mumbled, then clicked to get the results printed.

Okay, now, I'm so sorry its taking forever to have any Cricky here, but its part of the plot. Trust me, its almost getting there.

This is still going to be a Cricky story.
