Some days were filled with field work, other days with paper work. And then there were those fair share of days that were filled with, well...time killing. Like today, for instance. Shockingly enough most people didn't report supernatural crimes on a regular basis, and the agents of the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations had to find some way to fill the work day. Thea supposed she could have been doing something a little bit more productive than sitting at her desk, pecking at the keyboard as she played Spider Solitaire. Working out, for example. Or practicing her archery. Maybe even digging in to her own private investigation that she had been working on on and off for the past seven years since she joined up with the bureau. She supposed that she wasn't particularly in the mood to deal with that level of frustration at the moment, so Thea had gone for the game instead. 

She had ever thought that it would be easy. The case had been ice cold for over a decade by now, but she felt obligated to solve it, anyway. The massacre of her family was a burden she had been carrying since she had been twelve years old, and she felt as though she owed it to all of them, every single Zane who had died that night, to find out who had done it. And why. The questions seemed to gnaw at her all of the time, questions like who had those men been? Was it an isolated incident, a group working alone, or had they been a part of something bigger, more sinister? How had they found them? Figured out what the Zane had really been? And maybe the most torturous question of all, had she inadvertently caused it? Thea had to know. It was just difficult. There had been much mystery surrounding the incident thirteen years ago, and even now Thea didn't think she had many solid leads. 

The director's voice over the intercom sounded out again. For the second time that day. Thea didn't think an hour could have passed since the first time he had called agents to his office. She was instinctively roused from her murky thoughts and game of solitaire (which she was losing) when she heard the man's voice, and this time she head her name spoken. She was being summoned. 

Thea pushed her chair away from her desk as she rose to her feet. She hesitated for a moment to stretch, sighing a little before smoothing her shirt and turning to make her way up the the director's office. She was the first to arrive, but it didn't take very long for Agent Mariana to enter behind her. The other agent smiled a waved a little, and she responded with a soft smile and friendly wave of her own.Thea knew Agent Mariana only by sight and by a few quick, casual conversations, despite the fact that they had both been working here for a number of years. She wondered for a moment how that had could have been possible before the director spoke and she gave him her full attention.

He gave the pair the details, and asked for questions when he was done. Agent Mariana responded that she didn't have any, and Thea was shaking her head, as well. It was undoubtedly a delicate situation that they were walking into, but the direction had been very straight forward and clear. "No questions from me, sir." Thea said, and she reached forward to take Post It note with the addresses scribbled on them. She nodded to him. "Thank you, Director Levant."

Once he excused them, Thea made her way out into the hallway and looked over at her partner. She smiled softly at the other woman again before asking, "Need a few minutes, or are you ready to go?"
