"Corporate guideline set down for this facility. Because it is technically in a lock-down state, all non-essential personnel must remain off this floor, and thus, away from the door." Iglesias replies, he waves at Hollowpoint & Apollo who just appeared from the conference area, to hurry up.
"Yankowski thinks there is a murderer, so locking down the facility would trap him inside for you people to come and take away."
He presses the UP button and the with the wrrrr of machinery the lift begins to rise up into the darkness.

( 'Mojo mutters a short reply to Roanoke; they nod in agreement ... )
"So ... What do you think is going on, Mr Iglesias? Keep in mind," he coughs -- "we've asked you this three times now. "I know this is hard on everyone, but the sooner we resolve this shit, the soon we all go home."

"I think that Yankowski is jumping to conclusions and bringing this way out of control. A coroner team needs to be here, not you people." Iglesias responds, "I think that it was just an accident. Most likely Hadley was smoking and fell asleep. Wouldn't surprise me."

"Has there been an autopsy?" Halo places her left hand on her hip and places her right on the wall of the elevator, leaning. "Since it is possible to die before someone burns your body"

" Dr. Hadley's body was put in a freezer after the cursory examination. It was my understanding that you people might want to be here for the actual autopsy." Iglesias explains. He frowns at the thought, "Jesus Cristo-- I don't see why Dr. Everitt agreed to be the one to slice him open. Ewwrg!"
The elevator continues is movement. Thankfully no one had decided to install MusakTM in the expansive elevator. In fact, it's while you were taking in the size that you realize that the entire floor is actually grated. A glance down reveals the yawning dark of the elevator shaft.

Roanoke turns to look levelly at Iglesias and asks, "Has any useful evidence been gleaned from the site of the fire? And if so, when will we get to look over this data?"
Roanoke shifts his gaze to the floor grates of the eleator. He thoughtfully stares down at the rapidly deepening chasm beneath his feet while awaiting an answer from Iglesias. After a moment he adds, "And I'm sure Hollowpoint will be eager to get a look at that burned-down trailer a.s.a.p."

"It got pretty burned up in there." Iglesias comments. "I don't know if there would be ANYTHING useful in that trailer at this point. I'm not really sure what was found, but my money is on Hadley being a careless smoker being the cause."
You can feel the elevator begin to slow in it's climb.

Roanoke glances up from the elevator's floor as he feels and sees their ascent beginning to slowing down. He focuses his attention on Dr. Laird. "So, uhh, Dr. Laird, is it? How well did you know Dr. Hadley? Did the two of you work closely together?" Roanoke stares directly into Dr. Laird's eyes, awaiting a reply.

Laird looks dumbly at Roanoke for a half second, almost as if in shock at being addressed.
"W-what?" Laird sputters, "Um, I didn't work in his department. Didn't really know him too well..."

At the mention of Hadley's burned trailer, Apollo pipes up. "There's actually quite a bit of evidence to be had at the scene of a fire. A fire started by say, I don't know, a panicked murderer that douses the place in gasoline will leave tell-tale burn patterns. It's not my area of expertise, but I imagine someone here will know what to look for." As the elevator's climb slows, Apollo lets out a relieved sigh.

Crimson looks over at Bluemojo "so are we gonna start right away or do you want to start in the am?"
Crimson turns to Apollo "what's the matter don't like heights?"

The elevator shudders to an abrupt halt. The sound of heavy clamps locking down, and released air are heard from outside of the car.
The elevator door is actually two doors an industrial grated inner gate, and what seems to be a very sturdy metal outer door. The outer door slides open, giving you a view of machine-mined hall. Rough but flat walls and cieling. All at 90 degree angles to each other. The inner gate begins to open.

"I don't know about the rest of you... But I'd really like to get started right away. I'd actually like to take a look at both the scene and the body."
Hollowpoint looks over both his teammates and the company men in the elevator.
"I think we'd do alot better splitting into two groups and going seperately and then comparing notes. Anyone have any objections?"
Rick Wallace is a tested veteran of crime scene investigation as well as to how they should be run. He was, aftert all, brought in specifically to assist in this matter.
Rick smiles to himself before talking to again. "I wouldn't mind a few minutes alone with Mr. Iglesias here either, just the two of us. See if I could pick his brain a little." Rick smirks a little again studying Iglesias' face for his reaction.

Iglesias' tan skin goes a little pale at Wallace's comment. He pretends that he didn't hear it though as he steps into the hallway. A distinct clank sounds with Iglesias' first step. You notice that the floor here is made up of steel grating as well. Piping runs underneath the metal floor. It lays about a foot below the grating. You can clearly see the stone floor surface below the pipes. www.geocities.com/nibelunginc/two.htmlThe above link corresponds to your current floor.

Halo twists her lips in a slight smug frown as she suddenly feels sorry for Iglesias. The moment passes quickly as she pulls up his recent comments about the team's presence. She turns her attention to the rest of the group. "I agree with Hollopoint. No use in all of us following the same leads and standing around with our collective thumbs up our asses. Half of us can go check out the trailer and then have a peek at what he was working on, while the other half prod around the body and have a word with his collegues." She faces Iglesias and raises a turned hand. "We do have all access clearance, correct Mr. Iglesias?"
