A sudden knocking came at the door, and immediately after it opened with the clicking of the door handle and a short squeak of the hinges. As the door swung open, in strolled two police officers. Both men were adorned in navy blue police uniforms, on their chests they wore silvery shield shaped badges, and the breast pockets of their uniform shirts were marked with [i]NYPD[/i] in simple white letters sewn into the fabric. At their waists were holstered pistols on the right, and "billy clubs" on the left. They approached Alice from the door slowly and calmly. They were both of average height and body build. One was an older policeman, with blonde hair which was steady receded from his forehead nearly to the top of his head. The corners of his eyes and mouth were touched with wrinkles, and his dull blue eyes carried an understanding yet stern light to them. The other man was far younger, roughly in his mid-twenties. He had solid black hair cut short military-style and a thin goatee around his mouth. His young face held a harder more intense look to it, and piercing brown eyes that showed little sympathy. His walk, unlike the other man, had a sort of steadfast strut to it. His look and basic traits marked him as a gung-ho and potentially reckless officer. They both stood at Alice's bed now, the older one beside her to the left, while the younger moved toward the foot of her bed with crossed arms. The older blonde policeman spoke,"Miss, I'm Officer Johnson, and this is my partner, Officer Green." He motioned down to the younger policeman, who simply nodded, his arms still crossed, his face still grim. "We're here to talk to about what happened to you last night. The doctor said the nurses found you outside of the ER room in the parking lot, unconscious, and soaked in blood." Officer Johnson said. "With a large about of flesh seemingly ripped out of your neck." Officer Green chimed in, is voice harsh and forceful, a clear put-on. Johnson continued, looking Alice dead in the eyes as he spoke,"We need the full story, letter to letter. We need to know where you were last night, what happened, and if it was someone's doing, we need you to tell us who."
