Episode three: Party Killa'
("I know, You know" song by The Friendly Indians plays)
In between the lines there's a lot of obscurity
I'm not inclined to resign to maturity
If it's all right, then you're all wrong
Why dance around to the same down song
You'd rather run when you can't crawl
I know you know that I'm not telling the truth
I know you know they just don't have any proof
Embrace the deception, learn how to bend
Your worst inhibitions tend to psych you out in the end
I know, you know
I know, you know
(Song ends)
-SBPD-
Lassie was busy working on the phone. He was trying to get another case. Juliet was busy with the paperwork. Shawn and Gus were extremely bored. The duo brought Steve with them. Mr. Pudding and Hunter were left with Nick back at the Psych office. Nick did not get along very well with Steve. The two strangers bickered over Hunter. Nick eventually won the argument and was left in charge of the two pets. Steve was still angry at the teen.
"I just can't believe anyone who would want to take care of a Creeper, even if it hatched in front of you." Steve pouted. "Dude, it is not our fault you lost to a teenager." Gus pointed out. "Still... He named the thing Hunter Boom for Notch sakes! That is the two things Creepers are known for. Hunting and exploding on its target." Steve said getting railed up again. "Nick did tell us he has the ability to read people's mind." Shawn said sounding very intelligent. He sat down on a chair and placed his hands together. He looks a professional business man. "Read people's minds? How could he have read my mind if I was nowhere near him?" Steve asked. "Maybe, he bumped into you by accident and you did not notice him." Gus suggested. He sat on top of a random cop's desk. Steve began to ponder. The blocky man shook his head. "No... I think I would have noticed a blue haired teen bumping into me." Steve said with a heavy sigh. "Nick was on the computer when he named Hunter. Perhaps he looked it up?" Gus said looking at Shawn. "But how can a teen from another world find a way on the internet to look up a green walking block that we have never seen?" Shawn asked both men. Gus took over the cop's desk. He began to research the Creeper.
A game called Minecraft popped as a result. "Look at this. Apparently, this Creeper is from a game called Minecraft. Does that mean that Steve and Mr. Pudding along with the other strange blocks are actually video game characters?" Gus asked no one in particular. "What's a video game?" Steve asked the duo. Steve stared at the computer screen trying to understand.
"Spencer! Guster! We have a case!" lassie yelled at them. The head detective got up and grabbed his coat. Juliet got up in panic. She did not want to be left behind. "We can tell you in the car." Shawn said quickly. He practically ran after the two detectives. Gus got the computer back to how it was. He then followed Shawn to the car. "Shawn! You are not driving!" Gus yelled as he quickly ran after Shawn. Steve still stared at the computer before deciding to follow the duo.
-Mimi's Dance Club-
There was a murder at a dance club called Mimi. Four victims were brutally stabbed in the same spots with the same weapon. "What is going on here?" Steve asked. His thoughts were still on the video game question. "It's a murder scene. Someone's been killed." Gus explained quickly. The trio got out of the car to examine the crime. "Lassie! What happened here?" Shawn asked sounding like a child. "Four victims, all females. Brutally stabbed in the same spots. The murder probably used a knife. Our guy also stabbed each girl the same number of times." Lassie said as he read off his notes. "The girls are all friends too. They were here having a party celebrating this one's promotion." Juliet added. She looked around the booth the victims were in. The murder left the victims sitting in the booth they were at. "No one saw the guy?" Steve asked. He tried not to throw up upon looking at the horrible crime committed. Gus was looking away from the blood. "No. The killer must have done it during rush hour." Lassie said bitterly. "What kind of guy kills the innocent at a public place?" Juliet asked her partner. "The kind of sicko who think he can get away from this." Lassie said with anger building up. "Okay then, we just have to talk to the spirits and find out what happened here." Shawn said happily. He began to feel his way around the booth.
Shawn then went to the bar. He saw mini pretzels and ate some of them. "Gus! You gotta taste these. They are super tiny and perfectly made." Shawn said being completely distracted. Gus joined his best friend. "They are good." Gus said with a smile. He was happy to be away from the blood. "Seriously?" Lassie scolded them. He shook his head and continued his investigation. Juliet tried to keep up with the man.
"I have never seen anything like this back home." Steve said taking a stool next to Gus. He looked at the bar itself before looking at Gus and Shawn. "You have never seen a murder before?" Gus asked taking a seat. He continued munching. "I think we should be working, but the pretzels are not going to eat themselves." Shawn said taking a seat as well. "No. We have a place called Hypixel. We can play games such as Murder and Hide 'n Seek." Steve tried to explain. "Wait... there's more of you?" Shawn asked bewildered. "You play murder?" Gus looked slightly disgusted.
"It is not what you think! The entire thing is fake. There are normally roles for the game. Few are innocent, one is a detective, and the last one is the murder. The knife itself is made out of cardboard and the murder only has five minutes to kill everyone. Plus, the detective has a bow and cardboard arrows to try and stop the murder." Steve desperately explained to Gus. He ignored Shawn's question. "Wait... what if the killer who killed the girls did not like parties?" Shawn said changing the subject. "What?" both Steve and Gus asked. "Think about it. These four were having a part-ay. The killer only stabbed them and not anyone else." Shawn pointed out as he ate the last pretzel. "That is good. Lets go stop by the office and see if there are any other parties happening today." Gus said as he got up. The trio headed back to the car. Steve's thoughts went back to the words that boomed in his mind: video game.
TBC.
