Whistle sound when starting cold

It's the starter motor solenoid not disengaging after it starts the motor. Happens to our 94 accord.
Crank-crank-vroom/SCREEECH-vroom. That's what is like on our car.

Be careful , there is 2 "screech" noises. One is the starter as mentioned above but also one of the belts slipping.
IS the noise the same as when you hold the key too long when starting ? ( starter grinding onto flywheel as mentioned)

^^ Yeah, if it is the starter motor, it only happens during startup, NEVER at anytime else as well.
