An hour later, they convened in the Major Crimes Unit’s secondary conference room. Along with Lacey, Colton, and Kazz, the newest member of the Undead Unit, were Drs. Matthews and Dilorenzo, and ADA Joe Pratt. Joe was a respected member of the district attorney’s office, and also happened to be a Shifter who could turn into an owl. The commander had another engagement, so he asked Lacey to provide him with a transcript after the meeting was concluded. Once introductions were made and coffee or tea was in front of everyone, Lacey called them to order.

“Now, we have a few members of the team who aren’t quite up to speed, so you’ll excuse me if some of this information is stuff you’ve already heard before.” She launched into a recap of events, going back to the very first call, the assault on the driver who caused the vehicle accident. Joe listened intently, running his long, talon-like fingers up and down the length of a fancy wooden pen, a habit Lacey knew meant he was evaluating the information on all levels. Kazz was especially attentive as well, often cocking her head to the side like a dog listening to a high-pitched noise. Lacey concluded with the current hypothesis suggested by Dr. Matthews.

Marcell then picked up the thread, providing them with some information he discovered during the course of his research, including the fact that Reapers operated during astral projection of their own life force, something Niall confirmed as being factual.

“Okay, Doctor Matthews.” Lacey gave him the floor. “Tell me, if it is possible for a rogue Reaper to be stealing human souls, and we’re fairly certain it is, how can we find him?”

“I’ve been thinking about this ever since we talked about it at the hospital,” he replied thoughtfully. “Let me give you a little bit more detail. Astral projection is a way of separating the life force from the physical body and traveling on a different plane from the physical plane. When people do this, they leave behind a tether, kind of like an umbilical cord, so the spirit will be able to find its way back to the body. Reapers who astral project during the course of their duties also leave behind this silver cord.”

“How is that going to help us find him?” Lacey asked.

“When the human soul is near death, it begins to emit a glow on the astral plane that can be seen by Reapers, day or night. It makes it easier for the person’s Reaper to find them. But these stolen souls, they still have a physical body. So, I’m curious to find out if perhaps their astral cord is still connecting their souls with their bodies. Human souls also glow when they are sleeping, as it’s a time when their spirits are, for lack of a better term, thinking ‘outside the box’, or outside the realm of the physical. Now, I think, perhaps, if we were to have a known or
