KOURTNEY'S POV:
The three dead guys were teachers, that who they were! Mr. McKinley was an English teacher, one of the best in our school, constantly made me stay after school for stuff that I had finished and done. But he made me do way more than anybody knew. If I told somebody would they believe me or would they tell me to drop it? Like when I told my god-father about it, he told me that the cops wouldn't be able to charge him since he is a honorable teacher and I'm a troublemaker. And there was Mr. Brass my acting teacher, he's so caring in every single way, he always knew how to talk to me when nobody else could. He never laid a finger on me; all he did was help me with my acting chops and dancing lessons.
I told him what happened. God knows what happened to those guys. He probably told his best friend in the school, my principal (who's married by the way) Mr. Chancellor. Every girl that was raped, sexual assaulted went to him after going to Mr. Brass. He probably raped those girls too and my friends too. I regretted telling them so much about what happened. I should have just kept silent about it and dealt with the aftermath myself. Thanks goodness I did what I did to deal with the aftermath.
END OF KOURTNEY'S POV
Kourtney, Can you tell me what you saw and what happened here? Detective Mac Taylor said, as he said the last two words. He looked up to meet Don worried glance. He never knew Don had a god-daughter or knew Don to ever have any kids. He had known Don over 7 years at least, he never saw Don that worried before not even about his sister. He had to be hiding something here about this girl, that everybody will have question about in 10 minutes.
I was opening my last present which happens to be my mom's old laptop. My uncle told me to turn it on and turn in the password, that in the card. He said there was a video, I should look for it, and the video was label: My Baby Kourtney Sweet Sixteen. I opened it, and I saw the video of my 3 dead teachers. Kourtney said with tears falling down her cheek. "The one in the black trench coat is Mr. Chancellor, the one in the black blazer is Mr. Brass and the last one in the black leather jacket is Mr. McKinley." Kourtney said.
"Okay, thank you Kourtney, Detective Jo Danville and our tech supervisor Adam will take the laptop. If you have any more questions or anything to say just come by the prescient." Mac Taylor said to Kourtney, "And by the way Happy Birthday Kourtney". "Thank you" Kourtney said. Kourtney left to go hang out with her friends leaving Mac Taylor with Christina to talk about the laptop and for Mac to get Kourtney statement about the laptop. Mac asked the basic questions to Christina about the laptop: Who was the last one to use the laptop?"
"My husband, my parents and I were the last one to use it. Did you see anybody suspicious near the laptop in the last 24 hours? No, nobody suspicious was near it. We had it in the car the whole time until we got here and it was in front of me until Kourtney and her friends arrived here. You mean Kourtney arrived by herself with her friends? Yes, Kourtney is 16 years old, and has her driving license and her own car. What was supposed to be on that video?"
"Kourtney's mom, she died when Kourtney was 4 years old. It has been 12 years since she died and it has been hard ever since. Has Kourtney been near this laptop before? When she was 5 years old. What are you insinuating here Detective Mac Taylor? I'm not insinuating anything here Christina. Kourtney has a rap sheet as long as this laptop! How do you know for a fact that Kourtney didn't plant that picture of her dead teachers? Because I know my own damn niece." By now Christina and Mac Taylor were raising their voices and speaking in such harsh voices. That caused everybody to look over and watch the honorable detective yelled at a mom.
"I have nothing to say. Next time you want to talk to me and my niece will be through a lawyer." Christina had said and walked away. Detective Don Flack eventually made his way over to his boss, "What was that about?" Don asked his boss. "Something Christina said about the laptop and I don't believe her." "How long have you known her for?" Mac asked Don, "Who Christina? I dated her sister Melissa for in college and I had her sister as my partner before I worked for you, why?" Don explained to his boss. "Something is just off about her that's all". Mac had muttered to his friend, and Don pretended to not hear the comment Mac had made about Christina.
"Hey boss, I'm going to take the laptop back to the lab and find out the location of our dead victims". Adam said to Mac while taking the laptop back to the lab, the team was packing up, leaving behind Lindsay and Danny Messer and Jo Danville. Danny listened as his wife and co-worker talk about Don. They had so much questions and Danny had so little answers. "Hey Danny, have you seen Kourtney anywhere? I haven't seen her since your boss took her statement." No I haven't, I think she's with Flack, I saw her ran toward Flack's car."
"I'll talk to Michael Christina husband about the laptop, Lindsay you can talk to the grandparents with Jo or by yourself and Jo you can talk to Kourtney's best Childhood friend Vicky or Luke?" Danny said to his wife and co-worker. As everybody deported and went to collect statements from their suspects. "Hey Man, I thought you quit smoking? Danny said as he spotted Michael smoking a cigarette. "Yeah, I started smoking when I found out that Christina wanted to be a parent only to her kids." Michael said. I just got a couple questions and I have to get your statement, so let's start with the statement first and questions later.
I left the house around 12:00pm to start get here, Christina had the laptop with her, I got here first since. I already got off work and had the car already packed full of this shit, sorry for being in such a bad mood. Yeah I'll answer the questions you have for me Danny: Did anybody else touch the laptop besides you, Christina and her grandparents? Wait, you think I touched that old stupid Laptop? Well did you Mike? No of course not! I never saw the laptop since 2 weeks ago, when Christina and I were deciding on what to get Kourtney for her birthday.
So you didn't want Kourtney to get the laptop? No, I was against it; I was trying to talk Christiana out of giving the laptop to Kourtney. Since it carried so many memories with it that Kourtney didn't need to see. What did you mean by memories that you didn't want Kourtney didn't want to see? A couple of weeks ago, Kourtney asked me if I had any pictures of her when she was a baby for an assignment she was doing. I told her I would check and give her an answer eventually soon.
I did find pictures of Kourtney, but they were of Kourtney's mom mostly and I saw only 3 pictures of Kourtney. She has never gotten over the fact that her mom died nearly twelve years ago. Have you ever saw that picture before? No, I know for a fact that there was supposed to be a video or Kourtney and her mom. How did you know that? When I logged onto Kourtney's laptop, to get her the pictures, I saw the video on there. And before you asked I never saw it before and I don't know if it was there before since that was my first time using the laptop. Okay that's all the questions I have Michael. Thank you for your time and no worries you will make a fantastic dad to the kids you decide to adopt.
The last remaining detectives headed back to the police station to drop off the notes they had taken from the witness. They had to hand it to the Tran family, their story all matched except for Christina's. It was now 10:40 and it was getting late for everybody to continue working, and besides almost everybody had gone home. The only remaining people on the team that decided to stay late were Sid, and Mac. Flack's men managed to find Adam McKinely, Max Chancellor and Zeke Brass bodies due to an anonymous tip. Finding out that their bodies had been stored in the school since 10:00am to 6:40pm. Everybody on the team was called back to the crime scene around 8:00pm to collect more evidence on the victims.
Meanwhile in Don Flack's car, Don was busy heading back to the car, when he noticed a strange person sitting in the passenger seat window. Don grabbed his gun and headed to the driver seat and aimed his gun at…
Who do you think the other person is?
Will Michael make a great father to his other kids when he got Kourtney?
What is Christina hiding about the laptop?
Do you think Kourtney has something to do with the 3 dead teachers?
