Chapter 9
A/N: Check out my new stories 'The Huntress and Hunter' and 'Bella el Protector'!!
"He wants revenge," I told him, "He's taking it out on the people that mean the most to them. To be specific he's taking it out on the girls that are somehow related to these people."
"Why not just hurt the people that put him there?" Shane asked.
"It would be too obvious if he did that," I turned to Andy, "What did he go to jail for?"
"Exactly what you see in front of you. He was accused of raping a girl six years ago."
"And they only gave him six years?" I asked in disbelief.
"It was five to ten years and the jury decided on six," he shrugged.
"What else can you tell me about him?" I asked as I looked at the bones intently.
"Depends on what you want to know," he said.
"He's not a witch hunter is he?" I asked. Everyone in the room looked at me like I was crazy, "What?" I asked.
"A witch hunter? As in like in the 1800's?" Jeremy asked.
"Look I don't understand why he'd only burn the bodies partly," I said.
"To damage evidence and make this harder for us?" Shane said.
"If he wanted to get rid of evidence why not just let the body get cremated. That would definitely make this harder. There has to be a reason why he took the bodies out before the bones could turn into ash," I reasoned.
Andy's phone rang making us all look up at him. He said a couple words before he closed it shut and looked at me, "Another body," he announced.
I shook my head and sighed before I took my gloves and lab coat off. I grabbed Edward's hand and followed Andy towards the parking lot, "Why is he coming?" Andy asked.
"Because he's on this case now and I want him there. So stop complaining and just drive," I jumped into the first seat and buckled up. I had left all the tools I need to check remains last time I was I the car so I was prepared.
"Why are you on this case?" he asked Edward.
"I haven't had a case in a while so I asked the boss if it was okay," Edward replied back coolly.
"And he let you?" he asked in disbelief.
"It was difficult to get him to say yes but yeah he did eventually."
"Why go through so much trouble?"
I was getting annoyed with all his questions, "Because of me okay? Now can you hurry it up?"
He looked at me surprised before he looked back at the road. We were there minutes later I got off the car and grabbed my bag of tools from the back seat before I stopped in front of the body, "Andy?"
"Yeah?"
"Why am I here? I deal with bones not flesh," this girl was wrapped in a towel and was still decaying.
"Same details as the victims in the lab," he said as he pointed to the girl's chest.
I walked closer and looked down at the poor girl's chest. There was a bullet hole right in the middle of her chest. "Is she naked?" I asked.
Andy nodded, "Nothing but the blanket."
"Okay well send her to the lab. Ana will do the autopsy," I started to turn away.
"Edwards! We've got something over here!" someone yelled form behind me. I turned back to Andy and followed him as he walked towards the guy that had called him. Edward followed close behind me.
I stopped once I saw the naked body on the floor. This girl looked recent. The decaying girl that we had just left looked like she had been out here for at least four days. "Someone bring a blanket over here!" Andy yelled.
I could see all the cut marks and bruises on this body. The blood that was covering her chest from the gunshot wound. Edward slipped his hand into mine making me look up at him. I looked into his eyes and sighed before I looked back at the now covered body, "He's getting sloppy."
"What?" Andy asked confused.
"He's not even bothering to burn his victims anymore. He's getting sloppy," I explained.
"What about your whole witch theory?" he asked.
I bit my lip lightly as a thought occurred to me, "I have a theory about that."
"You have a theory about your theory?" he asked a bit amused and confused.
"Yeah but I think we should head back to the lab first," I suggested as I started walking away.
"What? Why?" he asked confused.
"This body is recent. What if he's here right now looking at us?" I said as I looked through the trees.
"Huh, I never thought of that," he talked into his walkie talkie to tell the 'help' to look around for any suspicious males.
We drove off to the lab in silence; I went into the back seat with Edward this time. I leaned my head on his shoulder and watched the road as we drove. We got to the lab in less than ten minutes. I quickly went into the lab, put my lab coat and gloves on, and walked towards the first two victims.
"Okay so what's your theory?" Andy asked as he crossed his arms over his chest and watched me.
I pulled up two pictures on the computer screen, "They aren't related to anyone in the jury," I announced.
"How do you know?" Edward asked this time.
"Look at these girls," I pointed to the picture of Amy and Julia, "They both have three things in common." I thought they were obvious but they didn't seem to see them.
"Can you explain?" Andy asked.
I sighed, "They both have brown hair, they're both 5'4, and they're both between the ages of 20 to 25."
"And?" Andy asked confused.
"He likes a specific kind of girl," I explained, "The two girls that were just discovered were at least 18 and they were both blondes."
"So then he didn't kill the two new girls?"
"No he did kill them. Do you not get what I'm trying to say?" I asked Andy.
"No actually I don't."
"He's trying to throw us off. To make it look like he didn't kill the two new ones. But he messed up," I said happily.
"How?"
"He shot them both in the chest, tortured and raped them. Just like he did to these two girls," I said a bit frustrated.
"Oh! Okay I get it now," he said.
I smiled and shook my head, "You are absolutely clueless. I have no clue how you got into the FBI." I looked back down at the bones when a thought occurred to me, "Aren't there twelve people in a jury?"
"Yeah. Why?" Edward asked.
I was hoping what I was thinking wouldn't happen. I walked towards the back of the lab, "Shane? Jeremy?"
Shane popped out first, "Yeah?"
Jeremy came up walking from behind him, "Yeah?"
"Have you guys found anything new?" I asked.
"Yes," Jeremy said happily, "I was just waiting for you to come back. Follow me," he said as he started walking towards his office.
We all followed him and stood around him. He was on the computer trying to pull something up. "So I was thinking about your whole witch theory thing when I decided to check some stuff out."
