“There he is!” I pointed to the screen. We had been waiting for close to fifteen minutes to see what was going on.

“He’s alone. I don’t see anyone else, or headlights. Where’s the cady?” Sam frowned.

“Should I call him?” I chewed the inside of my cheek while I considered my options.

We focused intently on the screen as Rico pulled something out of his pocket.

When my phone buzzed both Sam and I jumped. “Ah!” I put a hand to my chest and took a deep breath before answering.

“Rico, what’s going on?” I was still breathing heavy, hopefully he didn’t pick up on it.

“I just checked out that Black Cadillac. It’s the same model, but it wasn’t Lukas. Good call, though,” Rico responded.

“Oh, that’s too bad. What was he doing going from cemetery to cemetery in the middle of the night?” That’s what I couldn’t understand.

“There’s been some vandalism at these sites lately. He’s a special security guard. He spends his nights driving around in an unmarked car hoping to catch the idiots who are messing with graves.” Rico chuckled.

“Sorry. I hope you weren’t too put out having to go check on this.” I sighed.

“It’s no problem. I would have checked it out if Kyrie had been the one to see it. The car really did look like our target. It was a good call. Now, I’ll just have my pack pay extra special attention to the more famous cemeteries at night when doing rounds. I don’t like the sound of the vandalism. Most of the graves belonged to witches or voodoo priestesses. Sounds like someone is trying to get more power.” I could hear Rico opening his car door and close it as he got into his car.

“That’s just crazy!” This was all so weird. I was new to the magical community, but this concept was just cracked. Why would anyone want to raise the dead? Hello, zombies anyone?

“I agree. I want all of you to stay clear of witches. Something’s not right in NOLA. Gotta go. I’ll see you tomorrow.” There was a beep, like another call was coming in so Rico hung up before I could even answer.

He didn’t need to warn me away from witches, I wasn’t ever planning on visiting them. I mean really, what do you do with them? Invite them over for tea and cookies? Not likely.

Sam and I continued to watch the screen. “Sam, do you see anything remotely interesting?”

“Nope, all quiet on the western front.” Sam leaned her elbow on the table and put her chin in her hand.

The next day I was able to sleep in until almost noon. “Hey, sleepyhead. Time to wake up.” Kat threw a pillow at my head to wake me. She was really nice that way.

“Ugh, let me sleep some more. What time is it?” I grumbled.

“Almost twelve. Indie’s falling asleep on her feet, and I need you to cover for her so she can sleep.”

“What about Sam? Why can’t she?” I complained.

“Because she’s going to watch the cameras now.
