"Yeah I killed him. I killed him real good." His eyes looked around at everyone whom was judging him in that court room. "But I dare each and every one of you to look me in the eyes and tell me that you wouldn't have done it yourselves." A thin smile played on his lips. "I just bet you to him was all."
Veronica's eyes darkened in sheer hatred at the man whom was sitting calmly in the witness box. Confessing to the murder of Archie Andrews. Telling them all that they would have done it in his place. Her heart harden into a vise.
Tears rolled silently down Betty's cheeks as she stared at the man whom killed her childhood best friend ... her Archie in cold and malice blood. She wanted to open her mouth and scream; to never stop screaming. How could she not be screaming right this moment. Archie was dead. He was murdered. He was no longer going to look out of his window and into hers; with his quirky half smile. With his kind and compassistant eyes. He was gone. He was taken in a horrible and cruel way ... by this monster whom sat calmly in the witness stand.
"Tick tock." The man spoke as he looked up at the judge. "I'm finished now your honor. I can finally meet my death. I have finished what my master had ordered me to do." He turned to meet the eyes of Veronica. "There is no more task that my master has ordered from me."
Cold fear ran through Veronica's vains as she realized whom had ordered Archie's death.
