The Wolf Among Us Fanfiction
[Insert Disclaimer Here]
This fanfiction takes place in the game not the comic. The path I chose was to save Prince Lawrence and go after TweedleDee.
Episode 1: Faith.
Another murder and Snow White was the victim. Bigby wanted it to be anybody else but her. Reality was harsh.
"Excuse me sir but pedestrians aren't allowed to be in the crime scene." Those words confirmed it for Bigby, this was happening right now and he had to stop it.
"Give me a minute."
"Sir you're not allowed here, it's our job to keep you safe." The officer informed as he grabbed Bigby's arm.
He had to find out who was doing this, before somebody else ended up dead. Two girls dead, was that how the killer worked? Was that how his twisted game was going to play out? Just going after girls? If that's the case then all the girls in are in grave danger, Holly can probably handle herself. Beauty was probably the next victim. If he was wrong and another person died because of his carelessness, or as Toad put it, 'taking all the live long day', Ichabod would probably fire me. This was no longer just about a single murder this was a serial-killer, this was a race against time.
"Sir I'm going to have to ask you to leave now." Bigby withdrew his arm from the officer's grip.
"No I don't you don't understand, I'm here for a reason. I need to solve this case."
"Let the professionals do this sir, we have a very strange murder on our hands and we don't need amateurs screwing things up. If I have to I'll take you away from here in hand-cuffs."
"That won't be necessary." Bigby said as he turned towards the severed head of Snow White.
"Johnston! What is the meaning of this? Why is there a pedestrian in the crime scene?"
"S-s-sorry, he just waltzed in here and-"
"I don't want to hear your excuses; I want him out of here."
"Yes mam."
"Listen I'll leave when I'm ready."
"And who might you be?"
"Bigby, Bigby Wolf."
"Well then Bigby you're going to have to come with me."
"Look I know it's your job but I've got a job to do too, so if you would just back off and let me do my job while you do yours then we'd all just get along."
"Mr. Wolf to do my job I have to take you away from the crime scene, I'm sure you'd understand. Just follow me and I'll ask you some questions then we can go our separate ways." She turned and headed towards the front gate. "Well, are you going to help me make your night easier or do I have to drag you with me?" Bigby followed the police chief to the front of a police car. "I get the distinct feeling you don't want to go to the police station, just get in the passenger seat and if all goes smoothly you'll be released without charge." Bigby got into the front seat as the officer climbed into the driver seat.
"So Bigby you seem like you've got business here, do you even know who the victim is?
"Yeah I know who it is."
"Don't keep me waiting. What was her name?"
"Her name was Sarah White."
"And what about you, is your real name Bigby?"
"What's that supposed to mean?" Bigby said furrowing his brow.
"My parents never looked after me as a child, if there's only thing I know its cunning and finesse. Who was she?"
"It's a weird name but it was Snow White, I guess her parents were mad about fairytales… Ok now it's my turn. What's your name?"
"I'm Dracona Magnus Occidentalis. So you're really the Big Bad Wolf eh? Stuff of legends, eater of children, destroyer of villages."
"Those days are behind us, all of us. How do you know about Fables anyway?"
"Takes one to know one."
"Which?"
"Don't speak Latin? Shame… You're a detective right? I don't really keep tabs on the Fable community; I work with the Mundies, a whole world right underneath their noses." Dracona had short black hair, deep emerald eyes and chief of police badge buttoned on the spot here her heart would be. "Was this the first murder?"
"No, there was another girl. Her name was Faith, she was a working girl."
"You've managed to get more evidence than my team could ever… Excuse me a moment." She took a walkie-talkie from the radio of the car. "Nathan, I want you to withdraw all forces now. Yes now. No, I'll be fine." She put the radio back in its holster. "You got any leads, any suspects?"
"Shit, Dee. I'll be right back." Bigby threw open the door and headed towards the other side of the road.
"Some people…" Dracona mumbled to herself.
As Bigby turned the corner he saw four policemen standing around TweedleDee. "Shit…"
"Oh thank god, I thought nobody would find me here. I was mugged and the guy frikn' cuffed me the post!"
"It's ok sir we're here now."
"Hey Dee, what did I say."
"Oh shit."
"Hey you're the guy from the crime scene, don't come any closer or I-I'll arrest you!"
"Trust me you don't want to fuck with this guy." Bigby took another step towards Dee, being only a few steps away from taking his suspect away from the obnoxious police officers.
"Don't take another step-"
"Or what, you'll shoot me? Not likely." Bigby took another step towards Dee. The sound of a soft click echoed through the empty ally. The police officer help a gun up eye level with Bigby. "You can't be serious." Bigby turned to face the police man.
"Try me."
"I'm not going anywhere just calm down and nobody gets hurt."
"I'm the one with the gun, not you."
"Well aren't you observant." Bigby replied with a smug smile. "Now If you don't mind, step aside."
"Walk away."
"I don't time for this shit." Bigby replied as he pushed the policeman aside.
"Shit! Don't just stand there, do something." TweedleDee cried in desperation.
"You can shut up." One of the officers came up from behind Bigby and wrapped his arms underneath his shoulders. Bigby flipped him over the top of himself and pinched the bridge of his nose. "I wouldn't have done that if you hadn't jumped on me." The officer slowly rolled onto his side and let out a groan.
"You're under arrest; put your hands in the air!" The gunman said.
"He started it. I don't go around jumping on people."
"Like hell you don't." Dee mumbled.
"What did I tell you?" Bigby said turning his head towards Dee.
"This is your last warning put you friking hands in the air now!" Bigby let out a sigh and lifted his arms above his head bringing them to the back of his head. "Are you happy now?"
