"Another murder." Wide Eyes, the insomnia afflicted man mumbled, taking a sip from a cup of coffee.
"Already?" Muscles responded, taking a seat beside Wide Eyes. "Then shall we make our move...?"
"First we find out where it happened...Then we strike."

"You there!" Katrina called to the relieved yet edgy Siegfried.
"Can I help you?" Siegfried responded as callously as he could through text. He had his headset tuned so that he may hear A.
"I was wondering if you'd seen anyone around here a while ago..."
"No, sorry. I just got here."
"Play it safe Siegfried..." A mumbled. "If either of us are seen attacking another player or slip that we know anything we're immediately suspicious."
"You don't have to tell me..." Siegfried said aloud into the mic.
"Are you looking for someone?" Siegfried questioned as innocently as possible.
"Yes."
"Who? I might be able to help."
"I doubt it, I'm...Uh..." Katrina started to wonder whether or not she should make it known that she was investigating the glitch. If she did, news would no doubt spread that Jagex was involved and even worse; they could even be behind it.
"...I'm looking for a player but I've forgotten his name."
"Why are you looking for him?" Siegfried's curiosity getting the better of him.
"That's none of your buisness..."
"It could be. I won't know unless you tell me."
"Trust me," Katrina typed, having already retrieved teleport runes from her bank. "It doesn't concern you."
She teleported off.
"Is she in Lumbridge?" Siegfried said into his microphone.
"Mod Katrina is it? Yeah, she's here."
"Then you were right. Jagex knows."
"And yet we still have nothing..."

"You're such a noob Adrian!" Blorf roared into his microphone. "I could so own you at Bounty Hunter!"
"Would you mind proving it?" Adrian responded cooly.
"Hah! Fine, where should we meet?" Blorf thundered.
"A little west of Bounty Hunter, if you wouldn't mind." Adrian tried to keep his laughter down.
"Oh yeah, I'm gonna bring my friends along for this..."
Adrian moved his mic out of the way and chuckled.
"The more the merrier..." he thought devilishly.
"I have a request," Adrian said, putting his mic back into place. "No armour?"
Blorf's thunderous laugh nearly burst Adrian's ear drums. "You want to no armour a rune pure?! Be my guest!"
Adrian had already made his way west of Bounty Hunter and waited patiently for his victim to show. Within minutes, Blorf and one other arrived.
Blorf had nothing on and as Adrian asked to be shown his inventory, he presented a full bag of nothing.
Just as Adrian wanted.
"Wait for a moment," Blorf chuckled. "I have a couple more friends who want to come and watch!"
"No more," Adrian said. "While they're low leveled I don't want to be jumped if you lose."
"Fine fine!"
Within another minute, another two of Blorf's friends appeared. All three were leveled under fifty. Blorf himself was level one hundred and three.
Conveniently for Adrian, all were on his hit list. But how would he go about killing them?
Adrian knew his foes well, he knew what would happen.
The two players stepped into Bounty Hunter, the other three looking through the viewing orbs. Adrian had chosen to battle in a rather empty world and as such there were only around forty other people in the area.
The two opponents met without any troubles right outside a viewing orb for all to see. Adrian drank a dose of strength potion, as did Blorf.
The first blow was struck by Adrian.
Adrian's reflexes were impressive, every time his hitpoints would drop below thirty he would already have a lobster in his mouth. Every time Blorf was on low hitpoints Adrian had swung his rune two hander at him.
The fight raged on and although it was promised to be a fight to the death, Blorf ran.
Just as Adrian wanted.
One of the most complained problems with Bounty Hunter was that if you were hit upon exit, no damage would be dealt. Now whenever a player exited, their health remained as did any hits that would normally have been dealt before running.
Blorf had obviously run out of food and was fleeing towards the nearest exit. Adrian had changed to the rune two handed sword and swung it with full strength at Blorf before leaving himself.
As Adrian had clicked the exit cave he thought. Thought of the perfect way for Blorf to die.
Painfully.
Upon exit, Adrian found that Blorf was still alive, his hitpoints bar above his head with the tiniest sliver of green.
Adrian attacked him, the thought of his demise fresh in his head.
A five was hit.
Blorf hit the ground.
His friends around him booed Adrian for defeating him.
And just as Blorf had disappeared from Bounty Hunter his head began to hurt. He groaned in pain and set a message to one of his friends telling him he had to go.
He plopped himself down on his bed, clutching his skull, unable to figure out what the pain was. He thought he must have just been playing too long and needed something to drink, but the pain prevented him from leaving his bed.
Three days later, he would die in pain from a brain tumor.
And not one person would think that Adrian had done it.
