Holmes
Holmes flopped into an arm chair and sighed. He lit his pipe and smoked it for a few minutes as though calming his nerves. Watson face was completely white as he sat down and helped himself to a tall glass of whiskey.
"So?" demanded Klaine. "What happened? You two look like you've seen a ghost!"
Holmes shook his head and sighed. "I'm just glad I made you girls stay home last night." He got up and took the glass of whiskey from Watson ("HEY!" Watson cried) and drained it before handing it back.
"Why?" Klaine asked. She sat in front of Holmes.
"That was not stuff for little kids like you to see. It was horrible… I'm scared for life!"
"What happened!" cried the ever curious Klaine. "I demand that you tell me or else I'll make sure that I'll hide your cocaine and your pipe and everything else of yours until you do."
"If you do don't bother returning the cocaine…" said Watson still upset with Holmes for stealing his Whiskey.
"Sit down and I'll tell you what happened." said Holmes sighing and sitting back in his chair.
"Can I put something back into my room before you start?" asked Rose who was still gripping her letter behind her back.
"Alright but hurry up."
Rose hurried up the stairs and quickly, but carefully, hid her new picture in the bottom of her suitcase. Then she went downstairs to hear the story.
"Well…. Let's see where to start…? Ah, yes. Watson and I were taken into the building without any body getting suspicious at all. I was a good start. There was a boy there. In the darkness in the building I couldn't quite make out his features but you could tell that his was angered even sad.
'Hurry up you two!' the boy snapped. 'Your twenty minutes late and Virginia is not happy!'
I gave Watson a look of triumph at this point and Watson shot me a 'shut up were going to be lucky if we get out of here alive' look.
We were led to a room where a girl in a black skirt, fishnets, and high heels with a black low cut shirt and a jacket was waiting. This was Virginia and like the boy had said, she was not pleased.
'Where the hell have you two been?' she demanded but before either of us could say a word she continued. 'There are a couple of news reporters that have been giving us trouble lately. They've been snooping around area and found quite a few things out about us. There now a threat and tonight is the night we find and get rid of them.'"
Watson shuddered in his chair. Holmes noticed and stopped his story to say "If you would like to go Watson you can, you must be very tired."
Watson gladly left the room and closed the door behind him.
"Now," continued Holmes. "At this point Watson and I gave each other a look of uneasiness. Virginia laughed and walked closer.
'Don't worry, this time will be the quick way.' She announced. 'A quick shot to the head for both of them. I already did some research on them both. There not well known at all, just a couple wanna-bes looking for something big to report to make it big or something. No family for either except a couple very distant ones.'
She then snapped at the boy to get our guns loaded and to take a few other men out to do the dirty work.
'It's going to be quick because I don't want to spend all night waiting for a report.' Virginia had said before leaving.
Well, the boy did what he was told but not without some colorful language. We were told to leave with a whole group of thugs. As you imagine Watson and I were still trying to find a way to escape this whole mess when the group of thugs found the reporters and well…"
Holmes trailed off and shivered. He grabbed another glass of whiskey. "Watson and I escaped after it had happened and if anything was a blessing escaping from the clean-up job. All that I can say is that a few reporters are going to be missing tomorrow…"
There was complete silence in the room after that.
After a while Klaine spoke up. "Did you try to help them though…?"
Holmes looked down. "They were ahead of us when they rounded the corner. It was too fast as well."
"Oh…"
There was a knock and then a maid came in. "Who's Pokémon complete collection is this?" she asked as several more maids behind her trailed in carrying stuffed animals, trading cards, dvd collection and several more bits and bobs.
Salver
Although Salver hadn't gone out on the trip the night before for the first time he felt sick after hearing the people were dead.
Virginia had laughed and sat in a chair. "Finally, you do something right and on time. It's a novelty." She glanced up at Salver and frowned. "What's with the book, I didn't know you like the read."
"Oh, it's Edger Allen Poe." He said flashing the cover at her.
"Poetry…? That's strange of you." She said slightly puzzled. "Lend me it later; I love "The Raven"."
"O.K." Salver sighed and walked into his bedroom to study. After a while he called one of the men up and handed him a package. "Same address as last time and even faster then before."
