Ok so I've made a lot of changes since I posted last time. I am reposting the first three chapters as well as posting a new chapter!
"So what have we got?" Cath asked when she walked into the crime scene.
"23-year-old female. Single bullet wound. Entry through the back of her head, exit through forehead." Warrick explained.
"Name?"
"Megan Winters. By the looks of this wound she was shot at close range."
"Check this out. Her body's clean but there's blood all over the place." Cath noticed. She got out her camera and began taking photos.
"Who's that?"
"The Maid Karol Rodriguez. She found Bridie when she got here this morning. She was the one who called it in." Warrick explained.
"Mrs Rodriguez?" Cath asked as she walked over to where the maid was sitting in hysterics.
"What happened to her?" Karol asked.
"Well that's what we're trying to find out. You found Mrs Winters didn't you?"
"I am maid. I clean." She replied. "Mrs Winters did not go to work today. She make me worried. I come and... see her." She started crying hysterically again.
"Well I can see we're not going to get much out of her now. Take her down to the station and we'll question her there." Brass suggested.
"Ok." One of the other officers replied and they took the old woman away.
"Let's get stuck into processing this crime scene. I promised Linds I'd be at her recital tonight." Cath said and she began taking photographs of the scene.
"Linds does ballet right?" Warrick asked.
"Yeah. She's in the junior version of Swan Lake tonight and she's really looking forward to it. I'm going to video it for her."
"So she's feeling a lot better now?"
"Yeah. Her bruises are healing nicely and she got the stitches taken out three days ago."
"That's good then."
"Yeah. It is…but it shouldn't have happened in the first place. I don't think I'm ever going to be able to forgive Sara for what she did…"
Meanwhile...
"Man this place is a mess." Nick commented as he stepped over a mound of clothes.
"Where's the DB?" Sara asked.
"Bathroom. You might want to put on some gloves. It's pretty messy."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Sara asked Nick as they walked through to the bathroom.
"I don't know but I'm sure we'll..." He looked into the bathroom. "Find out." He finished when he saw what a mess the place was. There was blood spattered all over the shower screen, floor and walls. However there was no blood at all on the body.
"Gees. He wasn't joking. This place really is a mess." Nick commented and he stepped into the room.
"What have we got?" Sara asked as she stepped over the pile of towels.
"23-year-old Melissa White. One bullet wound. Entry through back of the head exit through forehead." A police officer explained.
Sara got out her camera and began taking photos of Melissa.
"She looks clean." Sara noticed. "I thought you said the shower wasn't running when the body was found."
"It wasn't. The Killer must have turned it off." Nick thought.
Back at the lab...
"She's got bruising to her lower abdomen, her wrists and her legs."
"So she was beaten to death?" Cath paused. "Thanks Al."
"Just doing my job." Cath left the room.
Later that day...
"Cath Al just called. He says he's got something he wants you to see." Greg said.
"Thanks Greg."
Cath made her way down to the morgue.
"What are you doing here?" She asked when she saw Nick standing next to the door.
"Al called me down."
"Me too."
"What's up Al?" Nick asked when they walked in.
"I've got something you might want to see." He ushered them over to the slab where there were two almost identical bodies lying next to each other.
"What's going on?" Cath asked.
"You both brought me bodies this morning. When I was examining Nick's body I discovered something. Your bodies are identical. Same hair, eyes everything. They even have the same bruises."
"So what are you saying?" Nick asked.
"These two ladies were identical twins. And they were also killed in the exact same way."
"But that doesn't make sense. I mean they've got different maiden names." Nick replied.
"Separated at birth maybe?" Cath suggested.
"I think our two cases just turned into one." Nick replied.
Well that was the first crappy chapter. Not much change from the first one...but the next chapter is different.
