Chapter 3: Speculation
"Hi, Principal Man," Caroline cheerfully greeted the middle aged man as she bounced over to him; her blonde locks bounding over her shoulder. "Ah, good morning, Caroline. Elena. Bonnie." He wasn't exactly as fond of the latter two as he was Caroline.
"Something the matter, Principal Mann? You look a little anxious. Is there anything I can do to help?" He pursed his lips. "I'm afraid not unless you can tell me where anyone knowing Victoria Lion and Andrew Carnelli might be." She smiled apologetically at him. "Sorry, I'm afraid not. I don't really know who they are and you know I know just about everyone in the school."
"They didn't even pick up on your radar. There must be a problem," Elena muttered, keeping up with appearances. "Caroline's so nosy I can't see how that's even possible," Bonnie lightly teased. Caroline elbowed her in the side. "But I can ask around. Are these the people who need help finding them?" she motioned to Morgan and Reid who stood studying them, her in particular.
Principal Mann nodded. "They're with the police and are conducting an investigation." "On the murders in town?" Caroline concluded and nodded thoughtfully. "We'll try to help as much as we can. Is there a time you could come later?" she asked the agents. "I doubt you'd want to tag along with us all day while we try to find what you're looking for."
Reid checked his watch and hesitated. "Uh…yeah, but please get back to us as soon as possible." "Even if you don't find anything," Morgan added. The three girls nodded and watched as the two officers walked away, then basked in the thankful praises of the principal. That was too easy, Caroline thought.

"Morgan," Reid started as he hooked up his seat belt in the passenger seat of their standard FBi vans. "Did you notice how those girls inserted themselves into the investigation, especially Caroline?" "Who?" Morgan asked confused as he pulled out of the parking lot.
"The blonde one," the doctor clarified. "Yeah," Morgan nodded. "You think they've got something to do with this case." Reid pulled his lip into his mouth and lightly but it in thought. Even better, I'm thinking one or all of them could be the unsub."
Sorry for the delay in updating guys. I got a little carried away with obsessing over Death Note for the first time. I am so very sorry for its extreme mega to the mega shortness. I almost stopped working on it tonight. I'm dead tied and my insomnia attack has long worn off. I hope you like this chappie and I'll talk to you guys later hopefully real soon. Ti amo.
