Pairing: Ruvik x Sebastian
Rotten Core I
It was one of these days where Detective Castellanos proudly looked at his Police brand and thought how glad he was that isn't an ordinary Officer anymore. Now he didn't have to wear this stupid uniform and he got the really interesting cases. So he got one today. As far as he knew from the call he got, there was a fire in a Mansion a bit outside the Town. All of the people died there, except for a young man who was hospitalized with bad burning injuries and was now fighting for his live. Even though he didn't know that man he felt sorry for him and wanted to do everything he could to find the culprit of Murder. The Fire fighters who cleared the fire said that it didn't seem like an ordinary outbreak and the Mansion was set on fire on purpose. The Parents corpses have been found in their beds, so the little daughter. Only the young man has been in the basement but didn't looked like the core of the fire has been there. Now it was in Sebastian Castellanos and his friend Joseph Oda's hands to find out what really happened there.
Before he went out of the house, he took his gun and his cloak and went to his car. His first stop would be the Police Station to pick up Oda and then went to the Mansion to find any evidence. There was no way that he could talk to the young man who was still unconscious. So they had to do some other work till they would be able to talk to him. It was a good thing that the traffic wasn't that bad at a times like that. The clock showed that it was nearly eleven o'clock and everyone was already on his workplace. So he was at the Police Station in no time. The black haired man didn't even had to get out of the car. Joseph was already waiting at the entrance and went to Sebastian's car as soon as he noticed him. "So there is a new case=" Was Oda's first question as he sat down in the car and putted his glasses on. A short look in his notebook told him what Sebastian already knew. "Lets see what we can find out about that." Was Castellanos short answer before he started the car and went to the direction where the mansion was.
It was a horrible picture that showed themselves to the two Detectives'. Once there was a huge beautiful Mansion standing there. Both of them knew it because it was the only one that looked so old and nice at the same time. It also was the biggest one in this town. Now it was just burned ruins and ashes. Just in case they putted on a mask so they wouldn't breath to much of the ash. There were still some firefighters, taking care of the ruins and that nothing important got destroyed that may lead to the responsible one. Both of them went separated ways to get a better look at everything. Sebastian went to the main entrance of the building. Inside he could see where once have been paintings or furniture, but now it was just burned trash. There was nothing that could get rescued from the fire. He took a closer look at the front door and noticed something was off. The lock looked like it was been sealed with something. He couldn't figure out what it was. He called for one of the evidence secure man who took out the lock and would make his way back to the police station to take a closer look on it. While Sebastian was still walking around, he made his way to the back door and found the same strange material he found at the front door. Same with the Windows. Someone sealed all doors and windows so no one got out and everyone inside would get burned alive. That was the evidence he needed. /This was Murder. I am sure of it./ He got Angry. Why would people do that? The Detective would never be able to understand a criminals mind, even though he tried to understand, but murdering each other was just wrong in his opinion. When he got out of the Mansion again he noticed that Oda was helping to collect all evidence and took some Photos of the Scene. Right when the older one was about to talk to his friend, his mobile phone rang. "Detective Castellanos here." He answered the call. It was Kidmann who had news for him: "The Hospital called a few minutes ago. The young man who survived the accident is conscious again and they said you could go and talk to him." With a short thanks he ended the call. "You gonna stay here? I need to get to the Hospital and talk to the young man." Joseph nodded and got back to his work right away. As soon as he was working, nothing could stop him. That's why he was such a good Partner for Sebastian.
He went back to his car and made his way to the hospital as fast as he could. He needed to know the man had a clue or a thought who might have done this. As always it was difficult to find a free parking spot and when he tried to find one for at least five minutes, he gave up and parked a block away, to walk the rest to the hospital. Sometimes this could be really annoying. There are a lot of people in the entrance of the building and Sebastian wondered if maybe something happened that so many people seemed to need medical attention. But after a few seconds he noticed that most of these people are Reporters from TV and newspapers who seemed to be interested in the burning of the Mansion and wanted to talk to the only survivor. With an annoyed expression he made his way to the counter, where a slightly overworked young lady tried to get rid of the Reporters. Sebastian had enough of this bullshit and raised his voice. "I am Detective Castellanos. Everyone who doesn't need medical attention leaves this building right now. There will be no interviews with anyone. Everyone I find sneaking around in this Hospital or annoys the staff here, gets arrested. Are we clear?" The crowed looked at him confused till it got the message and left the building with different grumbles and swearing. "Thank you very much Detective. So… You want to see Ruvik Victoriano, am I right? Please wait aa moment. I call the Doctor who treated him, so he can give you information's about his status before you see him." She said with a smile before she took the telephone and made a short call. Sebastian just smiled slightly. He could use all the information's he could get to find a clue to the one who did this. /I wonder how Ruvik Victoriano feels about this. Maybe he doesn't even know what happened to his family-/ His thoughts got cut off as the doctor appeared and introduced himself to the Detective. On the way to the Patient's room he explained some details about the injuries and Ruvik's status: "The Injuries are pretty serious but he got over the hill and is out of danger. He regained conscious about an hour ago. When we tried to treat his wounds again he got angry and refused any help and just asked what happened and where his family was. When we explained everything he got even angrier and refused even talking to us anymore. Maybe you are able to get some information's from him" The Doctor explained as best as he could and Sebastian kind of felt that this would be some hard work to get any hints from him. It was understandable for the young Detective. He lost his home and his family. That must be a huge shock and burden for him. He would try to be as gentle as possible and not hurt him any further. He was there to help. They got to the Room where Ruvik was in and with a silent agreement, Sebastian went inside.
First thing he noticed was the smell of Medicine and that the curtains where closed. Though the sun was shining brightly and you could see perfectly fine. Sebastian saw the man laid on the bed who didn't even turned around to look at him. All the black haired man could see so far were the bandages that have been all over the young mans body. Now he felt even more sorry for him. He could just imagine how horrible all of this must be for Ruvik. "Excuse me. I am Detective Sebastian Castellanos from the Local Police Department. I am here because I have some Questions about the Accident that happened at your home and I hoped you might help me out here." Surprisingly his voice was quiet and calm and he slowly made his way to the bed. But Ruvik didn't even turn around to look at his Visitor. A sigh left the Detective's throat as he made his way around the bed to take a better look at Ruvik. At that very moment, grey eyes locked his gaze on him and kept Sebastian speechless at the spot. Never before he had seen such eyes.
He stood there for a few seconds, paralyzed by what he saw with his own eyes, before he got startled by a deep growl that came from the patient on the bed. "I am sorry…" He took a few steps back to take a seat on a chair which was close by. Nervously he took out his notebook. The gaze on him made him feel uncomfortable. The look of this eyes was cold and full of hatred. /Understandable after what happened to him and his family./ Was his thought before he met the gaze with his own eyes. "I am really sorry for what happened to your and your family. I am sure it was horrible, but I need some information's from you about what happened or what you can remember." Sebastian tried not to speak to loud, afraid he would destroy the silence that was heavy in this room. But instead of an answer he just got stared at. The Detective got even more confused. Sure had talked to some Victims before, but never before did he had such a look on himself and the atmosphere was never so awkward. So he had no clue how to handle this Situation.
He let out a deep sigh and putted his Notebook away. With a soft look on his face he looked at Ruvik again. "I will make sure that this Bastards get a nice kick in their ass and get under the law for what he did to you and your Family. I swear it by my life." But again there was no Reaction to be seen´. "Leave me alone, Detective…" Came it in a silent but sharp tone from the Patient. /Ok… It seems there is nothing to get out of him now./ I let out a sigh of defeat. /Then I call it a day and call Joseph if he got some new information's from the crime scene./ He stood up from his seat and made his way to the door. "I will come back tomorrow." Without turning around again he left the room and went back to his car. He was slightly annoyed that he did not get any hints of what may have happened. But also the nurses he stripped him of his clothes with their eyes have been a pain in the ass. Every time he thought that it may be an easy case, it turns out to be more complicated than everything before. And this case seemed to be pretty Special. The expression on Ruvik's face and the Color of his eyes. Something told him that he wasn't just an ordinary young man.
With this thought the Detective made his way to the Police station where he met with Joseph Oda in a conference room. Together with their boss and some other Detectives. The chief coughs slightly before he began his speech: "Detective's. This is an Important case we have here now. The Victoriano Family was a rich family in this town. Even though many People don't like them, because of the unconfirmed Experiment's and missing People, we have to find out who is responsible for this crime. Any new Information's?" At this Point Sebastian, Joseph and some other Detectives stood up. Joseph talked up first: "As far as I can tell, the Family has been locked inside the Mansion, by blocking the doors and windows with some kind of Metal barricade. But its still unknown if something happened to the Family before the fire. We have to wait for the autopsy." After he finished, he settled his glasses again before he sat down. With a short nod to Joseph, the Chief went to another Detective. "The Families who live close to the Mansion didn't gave us any Information's. They are just scared they might get haunted by the ghosts of the Victoriano's" His face showed disbelieving. It was very unlikely for that to happen in his eyes. For him it was just annoying that he didn't got any information's from them. Next one was Sebastian. "Short after Joseph and I arrived at the crime scene, I made my way to the Hospital where the only survivor, Ruvik Victoriano was hospitalized. But sadly he didn't say a word to me. I will go back to him by tomorrow and see if he tells me anything then." The chief showed sign's of frustration. This didn't go as he wished it would. "ok… If that is all, you are dismissed." He ended the conference and left the room first. Sebastian went to Joseph. "Seems like the Chief isn't happy about the Situation." He joked around with a slight smile. "Indeed. But the town people did not like the Victoriano's so it seems only natural that they won't bother with their death. We have to keep on looking for more evidence's and find the criminals." Joseph seemed really concerned and focused on this case. Still chatting they left the Police station again.
Work was over and everyone went their way back home. Even though he had no one for him waiting at home, Sebastian was glad to get back to his own place. While making dinner his mind still couldn't settle down. He just couldn't get this eyes out of his mind. /I have never seen such eyes before…/ the black haired man thought over and over again. Sebastian really hoped he might get to talk with Ruvik by tomorrow.
