Hey all I am back. My temporary writers block is gone….for now
Hope y'all like this story, just like my first one. Please remember I'm only human mistakes will be made. I can take criticism but be gentle not everyone is perfect.
Enjoy!
SUMMARY::
Just because a serial killer is dead, doesn't mean that person did not leave behind a fan club. What does this have to do with Jo and how is Ellie caught in the middle?
CHAPTER ONE::
"Rachel Dawes age 24 was found brutally murdered in Central Park this morning around 4 am. Attacks have been popping up all over lower Manhattan these past few weeks. Police still have no suspects or anyone in custody. Reports have been saying this could be the latest string in a new serial killer. Please keep an eye out for anything suspicious, as local law enforcement have been adding additional officers to neighborhoods, hoping to prevent another tragic death. "The news reporter finished her last sentence with a look of sorrow and worry for anyone tuning in to watch, before flipping over to what today's weather forecast would be. A man sitting in his apartment reached for the newspaper sitting on the small table next to him. Opening up to the front page with his latest victim splashed all over it.
Meanwhile Jo Danville was sitting in the break room watching the same report going across the screen. Rachel had been the fifth victim in the last few weeks with the same cause of death as the other four girls who were brutally murdered before her.
Each victim was raped before being strangled to death. It sent shivers down Jo's spine as each time she saw the victim she couldn't help, but think of the one man she knew to be capable of such crime. She killed him, she shot and killed him. There was no way he could still be alive, she watched him die, watched him be carted off into the coroner's van. There was no way he was still alive….right?
MAN'S APARTMENT::
Jason Jacob Lewis sat in his apartment reading the lasted headline "Another girl brutally murdered" "New serial killer on the loose?" Jason smiled as he read the other headlines about his recent victim. Rachel Dawes.
Jason Jacob Lewis or as he referred to himself as JJ Curtis. Had been following the John Curtis case since it started, All the way up to his death. All around JJ's house were newspaper clippings of John Curtis, his victims, and Jo Danville. The one responsible for John's death. Two years later JJ moved into an apartment across the street from Jo once he tracked down where she lived. He followed her cautiously, she was from the FBI she was smart, but JJ was a little bit smarter. He learned her routine, where she went before work, after work, her friends, and her family. JJ was plotting revenge it took some time, but that time was coming up quick.
JJ walked around his little studio apartment glaring at all the clippings of Detective Jo Danville. "You will pay for what you did Jo, you will pay" JJ spoke puling the dart out of one of the articles walking away. He turned and quickly threw it back at the wall striking the latest picture of Jo right in the face.
JJ had become obsessed with John Curtis, so much that he dropped out of NYU to keep track of him. JJ started his own fan club, even reaching out to Curtis. He met Curtis once, at the coffee shop by where he lived. JJ's family tried to institutionalize him, but it didn't work. JJ ran away and his family gave up looking for him.
Looking at his calendar he had a date circled in red marker, the day John Curtis was shot, the day he would exact his revenge, and in those two days he would end Jo Danville's life once and for all.
JO'S APARTMENT:::
Jo came in the door and hung up her purse on the coat rack and placed her keys in the little dish on the table by the door. She could not for the life of her get John Curtis out of her head. The five deaths were so similar that it disturbed Jo. She was quickly brought out of her thoughts when she heard her daughter in the kitchen.
Ellie was in the kitchen preparing dinner, hoping to have it done before her mom arrived back home. Ellie was bouncing around the kitchen with her headphones and in her own world that she didn't even hear Jo come home. Jo stood in the doorway smiling as she watched her daughter float around dancing to whatever she was listening to. Ellie saw something out of the corner of her eye and jumped only to find her mom standing there.
"Geez Mom you scared me! How long you been standing there?" Ellie said wrapping her headphones around her iPod.
"Oh not more than a minute" Jo said raising her hands
Ellie rolled her eyes "dinner is almost ready, hope ya like it!"
"I'm sure I will Ellie. So nice of you to make me dinner." Jo said hugging Ellie
"You've been working a lot and seem to be in a funk. You always cook me chicken alfredo when I'm having a bad week. Plus I stopped by on the way home from school, grabbed some death by chocolate ice cream!" Ellie beamed "Plus I thought we could watch a movie, just hang out?"
"Ellie that sounds heavenly! You are just the best daughter in the world." Jo said bringing a tear to her eye
"Yea tell me something I don't know" Ellie said laughing and smiling "Dinner is ready go sit down!"
Across the way JJ watched as Jo and Ellie sat down at the dinner table and ate. Laughing, smiling, it made him sick that she could be this happy after what she did. It wasn't fair, she didn't deserve to be happy. Her daughter was a brat thinking her mom would live forever.
"Better soak it all in little girl, mom won't always be around" JJ said laughing to himself.
What a creep right?
Anyways please let me know what you think and your thoughts. I can't promise how soon the next update will be, hopefully by the weekend!
