POV McGee
I'm not totally sure what exactly what I supposed to do so I took a seat on the sofa. "Well I guess we should get everything started. Now girls, not only do we want to know what happened that summer, we want to know what happened that entire year. The good and bad." I said after Melissa left. I don't want her to be in here when they talk to us. I know from experience she has a way of making people want to lie, or flat out hide the truth.
They looked down at their hands and stayed quiet for a moment. "There's a lot that happened that year, but nothing sufficient happened until Halloween time. That's when Ali started to act weird. Well other than when we had that pie eating contest, but that's beside the point." Hanna informed me. For the first time you could see the toll took on them in talking about Alison.
"Would you care to elaborate on that?" I asked her needing to know what she meant exactly by 'started to act weird.'
"She stated acting strange, a little paranoid even. She would call us and ask if us if we had sent her a text when we didn't. Things like that. Then we noticed that someone started stalking us around Halloween time, a person in this ugly costume. Then on Halloween that same person attacked her. To this day we still have know idea who that was, but it did freak us out." she informed me.
"Did she have any enemies? Someone who really didn't like her?" Tony asked them going on with the chain of questions that we always ask. He had a look of interest on his face, one that he normally doesn't get when asking friends and family questions when beginning a case.
They almost laughed. "Alison had many enemies and half the town hated her. She was the most wonderful person in the world, and she could make you feel so special if she wanted to. Then there was another side of her that could make you feel horrible and so small. That side of her just made you want to run away and never come back." Aria informed us.
"Yes, her dark side could be very overpowering. She used to call me Hefty Hanna and convinced me that I had to make myself throw up, and I was like that long after she went missing. Then what was that nickname she used to call Lucas Spence?" Hanna said.
"Hermes. He was half boy half girl she would say. It was horrible. I just wish someone would have had the guts to make her cut it out." Spencer reminded them.
"She was also a little flirt. She flirted with literally everyone. She even flirted with me. After she'd get you to fall for her she'd play with your emotions and then rip your heart out. I speak from experience." Emily informed us.
"Could you tell us more about the good side of her?" Ziva asked wanting to know what good there was about her to make them actually be able to like her and be friends with her.
Aria smiled, "She made you feel like you could tell her anything and she could make you feel like you were the most popular girl at school.. I can't even describe how she did it. We all did tell her everything. We told her things that we wouldn't even tell a puppy that doesn't understand a word that we're saying." she informed us.
Spencer then look a little disturbed and her face turned white. "Then one night we were all staying over at Emily's and Alison got this strange idea to throw sparklers or something of the nature into Toby's shed." she started to tell us.
"Spencer no." Toby said in a voice full of authority. "We talked about that." he added looking at her with concern.
"Let her go on. We can't have any secretes anymore." Gibbs told him, knowing that the reason he butted into whatever Spencer was about to say was only to protect her.
He didn't say anything else but looked back to Spencer sitting in his lap, and tightened his arms around her as if he was ready to get up and run. She rubbed his arm trying to get him to calm down and to let him know that everything was alright. "So Ali got that idea. All of us were totally against it, and she called us boring. So she got up and left. The next things we knew there was a fire and she looked just a little freaked out." I informed them.
They looked interested. "Then how did Toby here get the blame for this if he didn't do it and Alison did?" Tony asked her but glancing at the other girls letting them know that they were free to answer the question as well.
Emily shifted in her seat and looked almost guilty. "When she got back and we all asked her what was going on she wouldn't tell us anything she just said that she would handle it. The next thing we knew Toby was being sent away in handcuffs and Jenna was being sent to the hospital we didn't see either of them again until the week of Ali's funeral." she informed us.
"So you knew that Toby wasn't guilty but you didn't say anything?" Ziva asked them with a little bit of concern.
"Alison wouldn't let us get near a cop for three weeks after that, all she said was 'It's taken care of so forget that it ever happened.' if you haven't noticed, she hated Toby." Hanna said.
"Toby why didn't you say anything? You knew that you didn't commit that crime? Why did you let them send you to jail for that?" I asked him in wonder for I knew that he and Spencer were not dating back them, they hardly knew each other.
He shrugged. "Alison through she had something on me that was worse. What she thought was a lie. But honestly the reason why I didn't say anything was because after my step mom and Jenna moved in I hated it there, I hated Rosewood, and I just wanted to get away from it all, and that was my way out." he informed us.
We went on like that for a good three hours. But then the atmosphere in the room changed. "There's something else we need to tell you about that we haven't told anyone else. Starting from the day of Alison's funeral we've gotten notes- mainly texts from someone who goes by -A harassing us and has done a lot to us and made us hurt a lot of peoples feelings." Spencer informed us.
"Can you show me the notes?" I asked her sitting up in my seat for this is something of much importance that could really help us.
They all pulled out their phones. "We've destroyed most of the physical evidence because we were getting freaked out." she informed me as they all handed me their phones.
I took their phones, it looks like it's going to be a long night. There are over a hundred texts from -A on each one of their phones- almost every one of them was different. Ducky is also going to need to assist us in this part with the wording and what not he can help us get into this person's head. "Alright, we'll start working with this. So can you help us find the guest house? It's been a while, and I've only been there once before." I asked my sister.
She stood up from Toby's lap and picked her key's up from the side table. "Alright. Girls breakfast tomorrow morning before school as planned?" she asked her friends looking back at them, and took Toby's hand for him to come with her. They all nodded their heads and she led us out.
