Detective James Cruz and his partner Ashley Garcia stepped out of their car and winced as a cold gus of wind slapped them in the face. Ashley quickly pulled her jacket tighter around her as she followed James to the body.
"Do we have an id yet?" James asked as he crouched down to examine the body closer.
"Oh my God!" Ashley exclaimed.
James glanced up at his partner his gaze questioning.
"It's Rachel Berry." I saw her perform in her high school glee club." Ashley answered.
James frowned as he stared down at the lifeless body before him.
"She is well was a student at McKinley." Ashley said as she crouched down beside James.
"Time to alert the parents then." James said as he headed back towards the car, Ashley hot on his heels.
Mr. Shue was pacing around the classroom as he waited for Rachel to show up.
"She is never late." Kurt said as he glanced around the room, hoping maybe he missed her.
Finn frowned as his eyes scanned the room looking for any sign of his girlfriend.
"Let's get started then." Shue finally said but was cut off by Mr. Figgins voice over the loud speaker.
"Will Mr. Shuester please report to my office immediately?"
Shue rolled his eyes as he set the marker down and headed towards the office. Wonder what Sue has complained about now, he thought as he entered. He saw two other people in the room. One was an older gentleman with blonde thinning hair and cold blue eyes, the other a young black haired, brown eyed Latina.
"Um hi." Shue said awkwardly as he glanced at Figgins, whose eyes were filled with unshed tears.
"Are you William Shuester?" the older gentleman asked.
"Yes I am." Shue responded. "Can I ask what this is about?"
"I'm Detective Cruz and this is my partner Detective Garcia, we are with the Lima Police Department."
Mr. Shue rubbed his face as he waited for them to continue.
"Was Rachel Berry a student of yours?" Cruz asked.
Mr. Shue nodded.
"I'm sorry to inform you she has been found dead this morning in Lima Park." Garcia said.
Mr. Shue dropped to the floor, and began vomiting.
Garcia rushed to grab a trashcan and some napkins for him.
"I can't believe this." Shue said as he wiped his mouth.
"We were wondering if you could tell us what kind of student she was." Cruz asked.
Shue stood back up before answering, "She was a straight a student and she was my best singer in glee club." She loved to sing it was her passion."
Cruz nodded as he wrote everything down.
Mr. Shue nodded as he answered, "yes she was Finn Hudson, he's the quarterback of our football team." He was also in glee club.
"How long were they seeing each other?" Cruz asked.
"Two years I believe." Shue answered.
"Do you know of anyone who would want to harm Miss. Berry?" Garcia asked.
Shue struggled to answer, "This is McKinley and being a part of glee club makes you a loser but I can't think of anyone who would stoop so low."
"Well thank you for your time if we have any more questions we will contact you." Cruz said as he shook Shue's hand and walked out the door.
Shue composed himself before turning towards Figgins who was fidgeting behind his desk. "Who would kill Rachel?"
Finn stood up as Mr. Shue reentered the choir room. He took in his appearance and grew concerned. "What's wrong?"
"Guys I have some bad news." He said as he tears fell down his face.
"What is it?" Finn asked.
"I just spoke to some detective's; they found a body in the park."
The glee club gasped.
"It was Rachel." Shue said as he sank onto the piano bench and cried.
Kurt looked over to Blaine his face full of hurt, his best friend was dead.
Tina began to cry, as she looked at the empty seat beside her where Rachel usually sat.
Mercedes grabbed Sam's hand and squeezed it tight.
Everyone jumped when Finn screamed out "No your wrong!" She's not dead she's fine."
Mr. Shue stood up and walked towards an angry Finn. "I'm so sorry."
Finn turned away and stormed out of the room kicking a chair on his way out.
No one noticed Quinn Fabray smiling in the corner.
