Halloween – the movie, Twilight style
This is a Halloween drabble, meaning short, 100-250 word chapters. Story will be updated frequently. Stephenie Meyer created and owns the Twilight world, I just like to play in it.
Thanks to my beta, EdwardsMate4Ever. She makes the words behave.
Chapter 11 – Forks – Dead Girl (Charlie Swan)
October 31st 7:00p.m.
Charlie Swan knelt next to the body. It was clear that the victim, Jessica, one of Bella's classmates, had been stabbed. His fists clinched. If this was a random attack, it could have been Bella. They were both brunettes, about the same size and age.
What happened? Where and what was the weapon? Chief Swan wondered as he knelt next to the victim.
"The wound has an odd point of entry. Like…a pair of scissors?" he said as he looked at the floor next to the body.
"What made you think of that, Chief?" Deputy Steve asked.
"Because there's a bloody pair, laying on the floor next to the body," Charlie said, taking a photo to note the position.
"Oh," Deputy Steve replied pulling out his radio. "Sending an all-points bulletin for someone wielding…"
"Sewing shears," Dr. Cullen finishing the sentence as he entered the room with Jessica's mother.
"Mrs. Stanley, why don't you wait in the living room," Deputy Steve said, gently guiding her away from her daughter's body. She had called them fifteen minutes ago, after she had come home from work and found Jessica on the floor.
Once Mrs. Stanley was out of the room, Chief Swan stood up. "You know something about this, Doctor…?" he asked, gesturing to the body in front of them.
"Cullen. I'm Dr. Cullen. The killer is my patient." Dr. Cullen sighed. "She escaped two days ago, leaving a similar pair in the body of one of her attendants. I can only wonder out how many more she has."
"Heard a bulletin on the radio about someone breaking into a fabric store a few hours ago," Chief Swan commented. "They're still trying to determine what was missing, but why here, why now?"
"She's coming home," said Dr. Cullen.
