Chapter 9: Investigating death

Ally sat in the living room looking at the TV. It was on the news channel, and they were discussing the mass murder at the Bobcats Arena.

"Although it is still foggy on who committed this mass murder, but we have picked up the identities of at least three of the victims. Their names are Britney Franklin, former owner Charlena Nancy, a former Nevada elementary student, and Savannah Arnold, a resident of North Carolina." Said a reporter.

Now why did those names sound very familiar? At least the first names sounded familiar to Ally. It's as if she's heard these names before. Soon she would find out as the reporter continued to talk.

"There is one thing these ladies have in common, and that is they were all a part of a kidnapping of popular celebrities six years ago. Eight children were stolen one night from a home on June 10th six years ago on the night of one of the children's birthday. Luckily the kids were saved and the kidnappers were put to justice."

"Why were they killed...?" The little girl asked to herself. "And who would kill them...?"

"Yes... it sure is a tragedy..."

Ally jumped a little when she heard that voice, as she turned to see Blake sitting beside her, "Oh hi, Blake. How did you get in my house?"

"Let's just say that I have my reasons... so what are you up to...?" Blake asked with a smirk.

"Just watching the news. I don't who know would want to kill those people. Sure they kidnapped my sister, but I don't think they deserved death." Ally told him. She thought she could see Blake glaring at the screen for a split second, but then turned back towards her, "Funny you should mention those people... because I actually know them."

This suddenly got Ally interested. Blake knew these people. How so?

"Really? Then do you know who killed them?" She asked him.

Blake... only smirked, "Unfortunately I don't... but if I do find something out, I'll let you know..."

With that, Blake had left the living room, leaving Ally all alone on the couch. She had to think about what he said. Did he really know those people, or did he really know them? More than she thought. Maybe she should've asked him more about them. But now she had even more things to investigate.

And so, off she went into her room. She took out her files and looked at the blood samples of the murder victims. She set up a cam that showed the blood splattered in the arena, and blood samples that she secretly picked up.

By comparing these samples to the picture on the screen... it's a complete shade! A complete match.

Ally also looked the information that she gathered from Blake himself. This all concluded that Blake... might be involved in all this. But he can't be... he's my friend... is he?

Ally looked over her investigations so far. It seemed that whoever was killed at the arena had a special connection with Blake, but she didn't know who they could be at all and why they were involved with him.

"Maybe they were friends... allies... enemies... I dunno..." She whispered to herself.

Suddenly, she heard a big "WHAT?" coming from outside of her room. It sounded like it came from her mother, and heard a voice telling her to calm down... it sounded like... that pirate boy.

Before Ally could start walking outside, the door opened and Jake came in, giving the little girl a smile, "Ahoy, Ally. Are you okay?" He asked her. Ally smiled back, "I'm fine. Is everything okay?"

That's when Jake frowned as he began to explain...

"Well... I'm not sure if you're old enough to understand this... but Mr. Oliver called... you know, one of Skylar's friends dad... and he said... he and Mrs. Oliver found Brandon... Skylar's closest friend... dead in the bathtub... blood everywhere..."

Ally gasped, "Oh no..."

She didn't know Brandon Oliver , but she knew that he was a close friend of Skylar. Skylar... aw, she's gonna be so sad. "Does Skylar know?" She couldn't help but ask.

Jake nodded, "Yes... she's over at the Oliver's house right now. You wanna come too?"

Ally wanted to say no, since she was still deep into her investigation, but she just had to see the crime scene, so she nodded and with that, Tori had offered to drive them to the Olivers. Upon arrival, an ambulance was already at the house, as Ally sees paramedics carrying a covered body (No doubt Brandon) on a stretcher out of the house.

"Poor Brandon..." She whispered as she got out of the car, holding her mother's hand tightly. They could hear the shrilled cries of Brandon's mother as they walked inside the house.

Beck was going his best to comfort Jade as she sobbed. "Babe, I know it's hard, but-"

"MY BABY IS DEAD, BECK! DON'T YOU GET IT?!" Jade screamed as more tears fell.

It hurt Tori to see her frenemy so upset and devastated, as she sat on the couch with her and hugged her, "Guys, I'm so sorry this had to happen. I don't know what sick demented person would want to kill Brandon."

Beck nodded, "I know. It's pretty obvious he was murdered."

As for Ally, "Where's Skylar?" She asked.

"Upstairs with Mickey." Beck answered, as she immediately ran upstairs.

Upon arriving in Mickey's room, she could see her sister trying to talk to a pacing back and forth Mickey, who looked more confused than devastated, "I don't understand... why would someone wanna kill Brandon... it's so surreal."

"I know this is hard to take, Mick. But we'll figure this out." Skylar assured her friend.

Both of the teenagers failed to notice Ally standing at the door, so she heard everything they said. "This is just like the time we were all kidnapped and that evil asshole Damien put me in a cold bath." Mickey muttered.

"I know... but at least you didn't get too much injury... I got it worse from that monster whose name I will not mention."

"Yeah, he's the worse."

"An absolute devil."

Ally then walked away and down the hall, not wanting to hear the girls despair anymore. This kidnapping has really REALLY affected them both, and now it's gotten worse than before. Great... now I have even more investigating to do...

That's when she found herself in the bathroom, where an investigator was observing the tub full of blood. Ally was shocked to actually see a literal bloodbath. This was even worse than the crime scene at the arena. Aly continued to stare until the investigator noticed her, "Oh, I'm sorry. This area is off limits."

"Sorry..." Ally said, before asking this, "How did this happen?"

"It seems that the victim was slashed repeatedly with either a knife or dagger, and he lost a lot of blood. There were cuts all over his body. And he seemed to have been ambushed while bathing, seeing as he was naked."

Ally nodded and smiled, "You're a detective, aren't you? You investigate stuff."

The investigator, named Kelly, nodded, "I guess you can say that. I take a look at crime scenes and try to discover how the crime happened."

"That's cool, because I wanna be a crime investigator person when I get older."

"That's very interesting. And I think you'll make a great investigator someday."

Ally smiled even more when she heard Kelly say that. It made her feel very special, and made her even more confident about looking at her own little investigations. "Wow... you really think so?" She asked for reassurance.

Kelly just simply nodded.

"Uh... thanks... I really appreciate that."

"You're welcome... say, I think you can help me investigate this crime."

Now that had gotten Ally excited as she nodded eagerly. And so, she also looked upon the crime scene, cringing as she smelled the strong stench of the blood. This is so cool! My first real investigation... and I'm not even twenty yet!"

However as she looked over the tub, she gasped as she saw something... written in blood...

I told you you wouldn't be so lucky...

Oh god...

Brandon Scott Oliver... is dead.

This is getting more and more intense by the minute as more murders as being committing, and Ally is out to investigate. But she has come across a very shocking message that has more of a meaning than you think...

But for now until the next chapter, here's the next preview:

Ally walked down the stairs to see her mom, the Olivers, and even the Shapiro's were sitting in the living room. Cat was aiding Tori in trying to comfort a still distraught Jade. Beck and Robbie were in their own conversation over this matter.

"I still don't understand who would wanna kill Brandon." Tori whispered.

"Is everything okay?" Ally asked.

Nobody answered but Cat, "Everything's fine, sweetie. Just still a little sad." Her sentence was backed up by a sob from Jade.

"I see..." Ally replied. "But I found out something that may have a connection to what happened to Brandon. I found a message on the wall, and-"

Before the little girl could finish her sentence, there was a knock on the door. Was is possibly another family friend to give their greatest condolence? They would soon find out as Beck got up to open the door. Once he did, he was shocked to see who was behind the door...

"D-Damien?"

And the evil babysitter from the second story has returned as well. This can be either good or bad. We'll find out soon. So I'll see you guys later, and don't forget to review, please. Thank you.

Oh yes! Trivia time!
