My beloved brother
Chapter ten: A monster in your bed
.
.
It was around ten in the morning at Vlad Masters cabin, one which resembles more of a wooden mansion than an actual cabin, the warm sun embraces the cold morning as Jack Fenton wakes up with a back ache he earned for sleeping in the couch all night.
Holding tightly to his head in an effort to calm the pain for drinking too much, the large man walks slowly to the kitchen hoping a glass with cold water would help him deal with the hangover.
Upon entering he meets with Vlad and Maddie sipping down on some coffee while talking oddly close to each other, their almost childish giggling dies down as they see Maddie's husband walk in asking for coffee in place of the water he initially wanted.
Vlad looks at his best friend pour himself a cup of coffee while he reminds the large man about having breakfast in the garden with the arriving guest, the night before the mayor of Amity Park celebrated his birthday in company of his dearest friends but also in company of leaches that wanted enrich their own careers by having made friend with Vlad.
A few moments later and the first guests to arrive made their appearance, Jack told his wife he needed to clean up before joining the rest of the guests in the garden and probably take a dozen aspirins.
With a wide and loud yawn, the man walks inside the master bedroom, Vlad had asked him and Maddie to stay the night in his personal room rather than staying in the guest room, though this invitation was only extended to the Fenton.
Even Danny had a room ready in case he suddenly chose to follow his parents, of course Vlad forgot about Jazz as she had no room where to sleep in, thankfully neither of the teens attended the party.
Jack pull out a fresh shirt from his luggage, year after year the man had always come to Vlad's party dress in orange jumpsuit, for a time Maddie did the same but for the last two years she traded her jumpsuit for red dress.
The man knew he had to follow in his wife's example and use a proper suit, on his way out he spots a piece of dripping plastic hanging from the edge of the trash bin, out of curiosity Jack open the bin.
As far as he could count without touching, he made out over two used condoms, all filled to the brim, knowing his wife pass the night in Vlad's room he turns over to the bed, sheets over the floor and a large stain on the mattress.
For a moment he wonders if just maybe his beloved wife did something he dares not say, but then he recalls the almost four hundred guests at Vlad's party and almost hundred staff members.
"Guess someone got lucky last night"- said Jack accepting the idea that some guest got together with someone.
While the Fenton's enjoy breakfast in company of Vlad, the two younger Fenton were still at the hospital being treated for their wounds as well as being interrogated by police detective Dorothea Prince.
Jazz wasn't much help to Dorothea as the girl could only tell until she was knocked out by the stun rod, the redhead mention she stab the biker in the eye with her stiletto boot, there was no point in hiding that fact as the cops could easily link her to it.
Though the girl wasn't aware of having killed the man in question, that until Dorothea explain to her that the heel pulled out the eye letting him bleed to dead, Jazz pretended to be shock about having murder the biker, but Dorothea saw through her.
Lying to the police may be consider a crime but not feeling sorry for killing your kidnapper and would be rapist, and perhaps murder wasn't a crime, even with the high number of witnesses, none were ever call in.
Danny on the other hand had a more interesting story, in his words, the boy explain how he saw the bikers drag his sister away forcing him to chase them down, the stadium cameras confirm it so far yet lost his track upon entering the parking lot.
The raven hair boy added that he followed the gang on a bike he "borrowed" on the street but dump it along the way, Dorothea knew the little brother was also lying as his eyes darted from side to side.
Upon being asked about the dead bikers on the street Danny paled up, the boy explain he saw them like that as he continues following the van but never seeing who did it, once again the detective knew the boy was lying, he knew who did it.
"Is he covering for someone?"- Wondered the detective.
The blonde woman was sure Danny at the very least saw the vigilante who rescued Jazz, there was no way a boy his age could slaughter that amount of armed men and women, even if he was enrage it was simply impossible.
"That's all for now, I'll be swinging later to asked you further questions"- said Dorothea letting the doctors finished bandaging the teens.
Dorothea headed over to her brother's room down the hallway, the long hair man was still laying over the bed unconscious, the police chief join in asking if she was done interrogating the kids.
"They're hiding something"- said the woman.
The cop was running on the theory that Jazz Fenton was a pusher for the new drug that hit the local nightclubs, a new and powerful date-rape drug under the name "potion," so far there had been dozens of victims and though many were arrested, the pushers were still at large.
The so-called potion was a dream drug for predators, no need for kidnapping or any unnecessary work for the rapist, the victim was more than willing to sleep with any guy, guilt would prevent them from going to the police.
Within a rather nice hotel room in the suburbs of Amity Park Sam enjoys a hot shower, the warm water caresses her body as she hears the doorbell ringed announcing the arrival of their breakfast.
After being called out by her friend Robert, the goth walks out wearing only her towel over her head, drying her hair as she gazes upon the steamy waffles she orders a few minutes before going into the shower.
Sam had grown used to being naked in front of others, at start she timidly cover herself before and after intercourse but now she waltzes in the nude without a care in the world, the girl sat down to eat while Robert sip on his black coffee.
The man looks at her with dreamy eyes as she munches on her meal, Robert could envision his life with the young gothic teenager, growing old together in their new home with a couple of kids.
"Sam, I know this is the second time we seen each other but I'm sure now. I want to marry you"- said Robert as he pushes a box.
Her eyes widen as she looks at the black box next to her plate, she was sure the man only wanted to sleep with her again but for her to find out he wanted more than just a night of passion was something she didn't see coming.
Robert was dead-serious about his proposal, he truly wanted to marry the goth, he explains how he loathed his wife and her ever-growing fondness of beer, how the only time they had sex was in their honeymoon, but he abhors the idea of having intimacy with the woman.
"Come on Robert, I'm just fourteen, we can't get married"- said the goth.
"I can wait, I'll leave my wife this week and move to Amity Park, we can see each other after school"- said Robert as he explains his plan.
The goth knew this man was serious about her but so was Tucker perhaps even her cousins, as much as she was serious about Danny, she wasn't ashamed about her sleeping around on the contrary she was somewhat proud of it.
The idea of no man or boy been able to reject her was enticing, to be in complete control and move them around like hungry puppies, was something she hadn't seen or had before, this adult is willing to leave his wife for her.
"This is a big decision, let me think about it"- replied the goth as she picks up her clothes.
Both Robert and Sam walk out the room, a maid was down the hallway complaining with another maid about the mess the guests in the third floor did, though both women stop talking as soon as they saw the couple walking down.
At the front desk Robert handed over the keys to his room while been greeted by the clerk, and being asked if they enjoyed their stay, of course the man and girl enjoyed the night, though not only for the soft, squeaky-less mattress.
"Hope you and your daughter come visit us again"- said the clerk as both leave the hotel.
Refusing a ride near her home by Robert, the goth leaves first as she passes next to the palms adorning the front entrance and goes back home, she had told her parents about staying the night with some friends as it was too dangerous to walk home at three in the morning, the same applied to getting a taxi.
Turning around the corner she wonders about Danny, she didn't belittle his family's financial situation but to afford a front row place with his allowance was a little too far fetch, sneaking in wasn't his style either.
It was a mystery as to how Danny got inside the concert, perhaps he got some money stash up somewhere, the boy wasn't a big spender so it was possible yet her train of thoughts was cut short upon been stopped by her cousin Brian.
The boy was out running, though he didn't want to mention it, he had grown a slightly large belly which embarrass him whenever he and Sam had intimacy, Brian did ask what she was doing so early in the morning and so far from her house.
Thinking quickly, she told Brian about going to the concert and staying over with a friend, the boy looks at her with a puzzling glance but the goth made the comment of being a female friend which relax the boy greatly.
Over at Amity Park hospital was Jazz still being treated for her wounds, Danny was force outside the room since his wounds were only minor, rather than staying out in the hallway he headed over to the cafeteria to get Jazz something to eat.
The redhead was fond of tuna sandwiches and apple juice, with that in mind he headed down to the ground floor while his sister was still being examine, the hours grew as the doctors check her for any internal damage.
It surprises them to see her in such a pristine condition considering she was shock with a stun rod meant for cattle, the tip of the rod should be burn on her side and yet there was hardly any mark on her.
Though slightly adamant at start they told Danny his sister wasn't raped or had gone through any sexual assault they could find, the news was supposed to be deliver to his parents but with them out of reach the doctors had to informed the next of kin.
After multiple attempts the police were unable to located their parents but once the boy told them they were at Vlad's wood cabin, the law enforcers knew they would have to send someone as the man is well known for his excessive liking to his privacy hence all cellphone and land lines were ban in his wood's estate.
It was the only place he didn't want to be located at, the place where he could relax from work and the noisy city life, even though an officer was dispatched it would take him hours to reach the cabin, most likely arriving in the morning.
Sitting in the chair against the wall Danny sees his sister reading a book he bought her earlier that day, his hands quiver at the though of having murder in her name, for her wellbeing, but was it necessary to go to such lengths.
They were all humans with no special abilities, he could have simply scare them away with his ghostly "charms" and little "dancing" in the sky, they would have run screaming but instead of that he chose violence.
To ripped the biker apart without a moments doubt, excusing himself the boy lung over to the bathroom to throw up, Jazz knew not to intervene as she was certain he wasn't used to blood like her.
It was a natural reaction to vomit after doing something so horrible, yet Jazz wasn't bother by it when she orchestrated Sam's rape and watch it through, her heart didn't beat any faster or harder before, during and after beating Poindexter to death, there wasn't any nausea or discomfort when she stabbed Star, not even after slicing her tongue out.
The redhead looks over to her cellphone, it was already three in the afternoon, she lays down on the hospital bed knowing all too well she wasn't harmed or traumatized, perhaps her mental sickness helps her deal with the horror she was force to endure.
From the police she learns that Danny chase after her by foot and then by a bicycle she "borrowed" but forgot where he left it, the boy described how he sneaked his way around the abandoned building.
But was found by the bikers who refuse to listen to his pleas, it was then that the vigilante attacked and murder the kidnappers as Danny used the table where Jazz was place as a shield.
The girl tightens her grip as she realizes the great danger, she put Danny in, if only had she notice the men coming up to her, none of this would have happened but she was too engross by the hideous acts the rocker was doing with her brother.
Defiling his beauty with her dick-sucking lips and trying to seduce him with her hooker like voice, it was more than enough to have her killed like all the other scum that got in the way, but taking out the rocker was no easy task, hopefully the diva was smart enough to walk away.
Danny came out from the bathroom whipping his mouth clean, soon his cellphone began to ring announcing a call from Tucker who invited him to hang out but the raven hair boy refuses his friends invitation.
The boy didn't want to leave his sister alone, yet she told him to go and relax, it was after all a Saturday evening, the boy couldn't stand the idea of leaving her in the hospital while Johnny's crew was out there looking for her.
"Don't worry kid, Johnny and his boys won't be as stupid as to come here, besides I'll put some officers in front of your house at least until we arrest them"- said detective Dorothea.
Not a moment too soon a doctor walk in saying Jazz was going to be discharged, the detectives face had an annoyed expression as she hopes to continue questioning the girl without the little brother snooping around.
While she wanted to escort the kids back home Dorothea also needed to keep an eye out for her own brother in case he woke up, so the task to take the kids back fell upon a couple of new recruits in the hallway who were most eager to comply.
"Watch the house in case the bikers come for them, don't play the hero, call for backup if they show up."- order the woman.
Dorothea looks at Jazz getting dress from the hallway, oddly enough without caring if her brother was inside helping her pick up her personal belongings, the more she looked at the redhead, the more she believed Jazz had murder Poindexter and frame her teacher.
Just the previous night she had been kidnapped, electrified with a stun rod meant for cattle, nearly raped and to top it off, she murdered one of her kidnappers with her high-heel boot.
But she acts as if nothing had happened, as if it were completely normal while any other girl in her situation would be a shaking mess by now, utterly terrified but not her, it was as if she didn't even care for what happened.
"Pay special attention to the girl, call me if she leaves the house or if anyone suspicious shows up."- whisper the woman as she handed them a note with her phone number.
Though she wanted to keep interrogating the girl, she knew it could be interpreted as police harassment since the redhead was a clear victim, even if she murdered a man with her boots, it all came down to legitimate self-defense.
It was about twenty minutes after the officers left the teens at their house that Tucker arrived wanting to hang out with Danny, but knowing he and Jazz were being target by the biker gang he convinces Tucker to instead play videogames with him rather than going to the Nasty Burger.
Jazz headed to the kitchen to fix some snacks for her brother and unwelcome friend, as the boy played in Danny's room, Tucker felt somewhat uncomfortable with Jazz sitting on the bed reading a book while listening to music in her headphones.
The doorbell rang announcing another guest, Danny ran down to open the door ready to bludgeon the visitor believing it to be one of the bikers, Danny had seen one too many gangster movies, so he believe Johnny send someone to threaten them.
But it wasn't a biker but Sam who came bearing a large pizza for her and Danny to shared hopefully without his sister, as the goth didn't enjoy the angered glare the redhead threw her constantly at school.
Unfortunately, her wish didn't come true as Jazz stay inside Danny's room while the trio play videogames, it was only after Danny handfed his sister that she accepted a slice from the pizza Sam brought that she ate.
"What's with this fucking bitch, coming here as she owns the place. Like I don't have enough shit on my plate already, first that cheerleader bitch nosing around, then those idiots ruining my date with Danny and that fucking bitch staining Danny with her hooker lipstick"- mentally complain the girl as she glares at the back of Sam.
The redhead noticed how the goth gave out a different aura than before, it wasn't the lack of her stabled purple leggings or the shorter skirt she was wearing that show her black panties, it was something deeper than that.
It was around six o'clock that Sam left as she was called by her mother, though also motivated by the hard glare she got from Jazz who "clear" her throat whenever the goth got a little too close to Danny.
Even tossing a chip over her head if she rubbed her shoulder to Danny's, of course looking away while pretending to read her book for the third time when the goth turns around.
Danny had discovered in the last few minutes that Jazz might be a little bit on the jealous side, though the idea had slightly touched his mind, yet he dismissed as been a little too hard to swallow.
But Jazz wasn't the only to take dislike towards the sight of Sam pushing her shoulder unto Danny's, Tucker also noticed her skin touching with Danny and didn't like it in the least.
The redhead made sure the goth left the house, quickly using air freshener as soon as the goth left not wanting her stench to permeate the house, realizing the time Jazz headed over to the kitchen as to fix her brother some sandwiches.
While Jazz made a light dinner, Tucker looked out the window, observing his first true love walk home, though the boy should accompany her back to her house he wanted to have a man to man talk with Danny.
Their manly talk stared with a plea made by Tucker who reminds his best friend about his feelings for Sam, the raven hair boy looks at him with a puzzle gaze as he's well aware of Tucker's feelings for the goth.
Knowing all too well his friend wants to speak of something personal, Danny turns off his game and sits on the desk chair asking Tucker to tell him what's wrong, the dark skin boy puts his hands together and locks eyes with Danny.
"I think Sam's cheating on me"- said Tucker.
But Danny gives a light giggle as he "kindly" reminds his best friend about how Sam would never act like this behind his back, but he also recalls how she started seeing Gregor without telling him about it.
The goth wasn't obligated to tell him about seeing Gregor, but it did lay a foundation for Tucker's worries as he wasn't in a full couple's relationship with Sam, and though she was drugged when she had her first time with Gregor, the goth had some blame in Danny's eyes as she should have trusted in him.
If only she would have told him about seeing Gregor, and would have listen to his words of caution none of this would have happened; the rape and her addiction, it would all be something that never took placed.
It wasn't as if Tucker couldn't back up his claims, especially considering how the goth began dressing in the last few weeks, Danny's heart began beating slightly harder as he recalls how Sam didn't seem to mind if others saw her underwear, and though perhaps it was just his imagination, it did seem like she enjoyed it.
Tucker insisted on his suspicion, stating how Sam stopped wearing her customary leggings and rolled her skirt even shorter, Danny did take notice of how Sam "accidently" show her panties at school when picking something from the floor or walking up the stairs.
"The other day I went shopping with Sam for a new keyboard and some other stuff, and well Sam was all weird with the sales guy, you know smiling at him and even ask if he workout, but she stop when I fake a cough"- said Tucker.
By what Tucker describe it was as if Sam was flirting with the salesman, constantly smiling at the man while he shows Tucker the newest electronics, at some point even touching his biceps which made Tucker pulled her away while whispering to her ear not to do that.
"At some point I lost sight of her for some twenty minutes, but I found her looking at some stereos on the other side of the store"- added Tucker.
But the dark skin boy didn't want to tell his best friend that upon finding Sam he instantly noticed how her hair was messy as if she had been playing with it, and her purple lipstick was slightly run to the side. His perverted imagination leads him to believe she was doing something obscene, but had no proof whatsoever.
"You're imagining things Tucker, come on man, you're in love with her, so you see every guy as a rival, even me."- said Danny as he reminded him about their little talk.
Danny assured his friend that Sam stop using her leggings for him, to let him see her bare legs yet Danny bit his tongue as he said these things, for he had strong feelings for the goth, though not romantic ones but view her more as a sister.
Therefore, speaking about her like this turn uncomfortable very quickly, telling another boy about Sam showing more skin to entice him into a more physical relationship, seem crude for Danny but Tucker seem to be authentically calm as he realized that Sam playing the "jealousy" card.
Pretending to flirt with some random guy just to make Tucker step in and act all macho, with a renew sense of pride the dark skin boy headed over to the door while thanking Danny for his advice.
"You're the best, can you believe I even got my tech at half price"- added Tucker before walking into the hallway.
Upon taking the first step out the door, Tucker noticed almost instantly a dark presence standing just a few inches from the door, his eyes moved slowly showing him a young redhead girl who offer him a piece of tuna sandwich.
Tucker realized Danny's sister had heard every word he spoke about Sam, but out of respect chose to stay outside instead of intruding into their "casual" conversation, yet he did wonder why she chose to stay outside in the hallway in place of going inside her bedroom.
Shaking his head side to side, the dark skin boy walks away and leaves Fenton Works slightly freak out by Jazz's ear dropping, he always knew the redhead was on the odd side but this was a little too freaky for him.
The two officers watch Fenton Works in the comfort of their patrol car, hidden in the alleyway, as one complains about this not being part of their job while the other suggested it was a stepping stone into getting a promotion even making detective someday.
As the hours pile so did at Vlad's cabin far off in the woods, the man laid down on his expensive wooden chair star gazing while sipping on his first glass of red wine of the evening, unlike his best friend Jack who drank three whole bottles of whiskey.
Jack wasn't a drunk by all means, he in fact seldomly drank given his near obsession with ghost hunting, it was only on these rare occasions where he would set loose and drink his evening away.
"It's not like he's a deadbeat drunk, in fact he does work too much"- said Maddie as she leans over the railing.
Jack worked around the clock almost on a daily basis yet all the money he made selling his ghost gadgets to ghost fanatics was all invested in making more gadgets, the little that remain was spent on the household.
Vlad had kept an on eye out on the Fenton's finances, though Maddie didn't mention it the family was deep in debt as Jack had build on op-center on their rooftop some five years ago.
It was some months after the construction began that Maddie found out how much her husband spent in making it, he had call various loans in order to make his op-center, the cost rose in hundreds of thousand they couldn't pay back.
For a few more months Maddie refuse to talk to her husband but not before telling to come back to his senses and stop the constructions and return all the money he asked for, upon his refusal she stop talking to Jack.
"I take it things aren't as good as they once were"- said Vlad.
Both looked behind unto the living room where Jack slept peacefully hugging an empty whisky bottle, Maddie love her husband but his stupidity did get into her nerves constantly, in recent years her ghost fanaticism had died down but Jack's didn't, on the contrary it grew even more.
"Last night was a mistake… but Jack and I haven't had any intimacy lately"- said the woman blushing.
"When was the last time?"- casually asked Vlad.
Maddie blush as she didn't want to tell her friend about how lousy her sex life had become in the last few years, nonetheless she did start the conversation and so she had to see it to the end.
Leaning closer to Vlad she whispers how the last time she slept with her husband was just before the op-center began its construction, five years without any sort of intimacy, Jack's ghost obsession had gotten the best of him, so much he no longer even touch his wife in bed.
Her days consisted of mundane work, making ghost devices she couldn't prove to actually function, giving out a so-called exorcism using cutting edge "technology" to vanquish the entities, but what tire her the most was to be called a fraud whenever she went out shopping.
It had been so long since she had gone out to dine with her husband on their anniversary, birthdays seem to no longer matter for the man as it fell upon Maddie to organize something for her kids, but never for herself.
"Five years is a long time to be without the touch of a man, or a woman in my case. Just so you know you were the last woman I shared a bed with"- said Vlad as he finishes his glass.
Maddie blush like a teenager, while she complains about not having any intimacy with her husband for almost five years, Vlad casually accepted he hadn't been with any one in fourteen years.
The woman took a long hard stare at Vlad; the man was fit, dress elegantly with a demeanor just as elegant and sharp as his suit, his white hair had a certain charm to his persona, he is a successful man, the complete opposite of her husband.
"You know Jack's not gonna wake up any time soon, so why don't you show me those new silk sheets you told me in the morning?"- asked Maddie with a soft voice.
The previous night could be blame to the wine and lack of a sex life but now there was nothing she could blame for her actions; her heart beat just like when she had her first time with Jack so many years ago.
This was the second time she was in Vlad's personal room, the large window overviewing the gardens where she and a bunch of people she had never seen before enjoyed breakfast, a classic Victorian closet a few meters away from the window held his silk gowns.
It was selfish of her to compare her own house with this mansion which only serve during winter as Vlad actually own a real castle in his home state, it was unavoidable for her to wonder how much would have her life change if she had chosen Vlad instead of Jack.
Slowly she removes her blouse and buttons her shorts, Vlad watches in detail at how she slips off her hiking boots and peels away her shorts, the man felt like a teen watching for the first time a woman undress.
His heart beat so hard it felt as it was breaking through his chest, it embarrassed him to feel like a teen about to have his first time, even his fingers tremble as he tried to undo his shirt.
Maddie walked over to him under the light of his nightlamp, her figure was breathtaking, her soft lips made his mind go blank for a moment before Vlad could undo his pants, they kissed in a tight embrace as both crawl under the sheets.
Vlad kiss her neck as he savors her scent, almost as if he was trying to imprint it within himself, Maddie looked unto Vlad's eyes drunken in lust she opens her legs letting his manhood pierce unto her.
The woman holds on to her lover as she gave him a small bite on the shoulder, her moans are soft and tender just as her touch, Vlad was as if in a dream one he didn't wish to wake from.
Maddie's breast bounces each time Vlad pierce her with his meat rod, her moans match with his heavy breathing, the two lovers carry on until midnight. Vlad's dream night was coming true for a second time in a row.
How he wished for this to never end not matter what, upon releasing his semen inside Maddie the doorbell rang, not wanting to pull out from the love of his life Vlad ignore the doorbell.
But the ringing continues for several scores of minutes, under Maddie's request Vlad peel himself away to answer the heinous visitor that dare come see him at such ungodly hours.
Wearing his prefer silk nightgown, Vlad slams the door wide open but quickly calms down as he sees a pair of police officers standing at his porch, one of the officers asked to see Maddie, who stood a few steps behind Vlad.
"It's about your son and daughter, there was an incident"- said the officer.
The pale moon shows its face among a few clouds that threaten with rain, the two rookie officers were already asleep in their car, in all fairness it was already two in the morning, but unlike the suppose guards and the resident in Fenton Works.
Danny woke up by the call of a thirsty throat, even under the gentle cover of night he could see how his sister's chest motion in an upward way as she breaths, her weekend didn't go out as she had expected.
Ever since the redhead was rescue Jazz hadn't gotten a wink of sleep, therefore the two young Fenton's went to bed far sooner than normal, the girl welcome sleep as she tugged herself unto her brother's arms. His warm and strong embrace calmed her nerves and let her sleep-in peace, knowing Danny was with her to keep all harm away.
The morning sun rays crossed the open window letting a warm breeze enter into Danny's room, the redhead sits ups letting the blanket slide off her revealing her bare chest, her eyes turn over to her brother who slept peacefully on his side of the single bed.
Not wanting to wake him from his dreamland, Jazz climbs down the bed and picks her clothes up from the floor leaving Danny's room wearing only her pink thong, the girl didn't get the chance to change into something more comfortable.
Once in her room she changes into her prefer outfit: the black blouse that was perhaps a little too tight, her blue jeans and her very comfortable black flats, once she slide into her footwear, she gained a new appreciation for her flats.
Though she looked great in her black high heel boots, these were unbelievably uncomfortable, even painful after using them for some hours, the blister it gave her didn't improve her opinion of the boots which were now in the police evidence room.
Wanting to get breakfast ready for Danny, the redhead waltz down to the kitchen and straight to the fridge, Jazz had much to learn about cooking so making something simple like pancakes was in order. Taking all the necessaries object from the cupboards she readies to make the meal for her personal hero.
The sudden screeching of tires was suddenly heard, followed by the door being slammed open, Danny spring from his bed and ran down the stairs wearing only his underwear, but saw Maddie and Jack calling for Jazz.
Maddie instantly hugged her daughter as she covers her in kisses and apologies for not being there for her, it was the second time she was kidnapped and nearly rape, the Fenton matriarch was in shatters, while she drank and party her daughter was inside a van being taken to god knows where.
Jack was on the verge of crying as he put his large hand over Danny's shoulder once the boy reaches the ground floor, he thanked his son as he hugged the boy tightly, just like before he came like a knight in shining armor to Jasmine's rescue.
Danny suddenly felt a second hand over his shoulder, he knew his father and mother were in front of him asking Jazz if she was alright, slowly he moves his head to see who else had come into the house.
A man with long white hair stood behind him, looking at the boy with a sympathetic look on his face before moving his gaze over to the redhead, though his eyes change to a colder glare, one that Danny fail to notice as he realized he was in his underwear and quickly went to his room.
"Goddamn bitch, you're always getting in my way"- said Vlad within his mind as he glares at Jazz.
The whole weekend at Vlad's house was abruptly cut short once the police informed Maddie about Jazz attempted kidnapped, the woman with the help of Vlad and police officers dragged a drunken Jack into the family RV.
Though at start the officers didn't want to, both hesitantly accepted a healthy "tip" from Vlad who insisted on giving it to them, after all they did a four-hour car ride just to give them the message and help out with Jack.
A few moments later a second pair of policemen broke in with their firearms drawn out, neither of the officer were aware of who these people were until Danny told them, yet Vlad walk closer to them as they instantly recognized him.
"Sorry mister Mayor, didn't know you were acquainted with the Fenton's"- said one of the officers before leaving.
Jazz wanted to spend Sunday alone with her brother but her parents were now in the house, Maddie had glue herself to the redhead, never leaving her side no matter what. It was really getting on Jazz's nerves, if it were Danny, then there be no problem.
Another problem had arisen, namely Mayor Vlad who hadn't left the house since morning, Jazz wanted to slit his throat once she saw him with his arm around Danny's shoulder.
Surely the man had a great appreciation for the boy, but he was still not a member of the family, he was nothing more than a friend of her parents, not Danny's real uncle or anything close.
The Mayor of Amity Park had taken the weekend off to celebrate his birthday so he didn't bother to go back to the office, but it did bother Jazz to see him spent all day with Danny in the living room.
Seeing them laughed and joked around was torture to her as she was the only one who had the right to make Danny happy, though Vlad may be a long-time friend, he was by no means part of the family, Jazz kinda tolerated her mother being clingy to Danny but not this guy.
"Say Mayor, shouldn't you be at the office or inaugurating some shop"- commented Jazz more than question, as they all gather for dinner later that day.
"No dear." Simply said Vlad as Maddie serve him a plate with homemade pasta.
He could eat at the fanciest and most exclusive restaurants in the world and yet none of it could come close to the flavor his tongue savor as he puts the first spoonful in his mouth, only on holidays could he savor such delicacies made by Maddie.
"Kinda bland today"- said Jazz as she added more cheese.
Vlad was beyond surprise and shock, even horrified at how the redhead could say aid something so atrocious without even blinking, he did recall the girl was abnormal therefore her sense of taste must be strange as well.
An hour after dinner Vlad made his exit as he didn't want to overstay his welcome, Jazz cold attitude to him and Maddie's guilt filled glances didn't help to make him feel welcome.
Though he did spend an entire day with Danny, that alone made it all worthwhile, that and his previous to nights with Maddie made it the best birthday in a very long time.
Danny laid down on his bed staring at the dark ceiling while Jazz was in her room already asleep, in the silence of night Danny recalled all he did in the last few weeks, the boy couldn't help but asked if he did the right thing.
The boy was sure he beat Gregor to death not out of some heroic antic nor to protect Sam but more out of jealousy, the bikers he murdered just two nights ago pop up in his head as he stares at his hand.
"Was it really ok to kill them?"- whispered Danny.
"Well you're a fucking monster for starters"- said a female voice from the dark corner next to his window.
Danny sat up as he readies an energy blade in his hand, the glow of his magic made the corner darker but could still make out a silhouette, in a soft but demanding voice he called out to whoever was in the shadows.
But as he came closer to the corner Danny discover his shady figure was no more than a pile of dirty clothes, he forgot to take down to the laundry room, more relax he leans against the window, the streets were empty save for the patrol car in the alleyway.
"Fuck, I'm going crazy"- whisper the boy as he leans over the window.
Before sunrise a man in his mid -thirties makes his way into Casper high school, he greets his coworkers upon entering the staff only area, it be a few more hours for school to open, calmly he changes into his green overalls.
With his bucket and mop the man heads down to the girl's locker room, his morning routine was simple, clean the gym, lockers and hallways. The gym wasn't to be used until midday but the football players and cheerleaders would use it once class started.
Putting a "no enter" sign just outside the girl's locker room, Peter begins mopping the floor until he stops at the cheerleader's section, the janitor wiggles his moustache as he perceives a strange smell.
Following the odor to the girl's showers, he stops at the door as the smell becomes stronger than before. Upon opening the door, the stench flew out forcing him to turn his face to the side while coughing.
Slowly he turns his eyes back to the showers, his knees lose all strength as he crumbles to the ground upon seeing the decomposing body of Star Griffin, the girl laid on a puddle of her blood, her mouth open wide as so were her eyes. The janitor ran out the door screaming for his coworker, never had he seen an actual dead body.
Under Maddie's request and the police suggestion, Jazz remained inside the house, it sickens her to death knowing that slut of Sam would-be all-over Danny, but she understood why no one wanted her to leave the house.
Johnny's men were still after her, she just couldn't put Danny in anymore danger than what she already put him in, at the moment she could do nothing to improve her situation but wait for the cops to arrest the biker.
But unlike his normal mornings, Danny notices a large group of policemen gathered near the gym just next to the main building, rumors of another killing were being spread all too quick.
A policeman who stood guard at the door opens for a pair of senior detectives, yet the officer is unable to remove his eyes from the bandages on one of the detectives as he tries to explain the situation.
"What do we got?"- asked the detective, tired of the rookie and his poor attempts of explaining.
The man was answer by the forensic doctor who waited for him in the locker section, the first thing she notices is a bandage cover his forehead just under his hair, the man woke from his unconscious state during Sunday morning.
"Glad you're doing better Aragon. We got a female victim, age 14, got stabbed multiple times and the perp cut her tongue out, judging by the cicatrization, she was alive when her tongue was cut"- said the forensic doctor.
The woman added details of being beaten either before or after the stabbing, she continues by saying the girl was most likely ambushed in the showers as the main attacked too place there but the initial attack was at the door leading to the hallway.
Aragon and Dorothea both pale upon seeing Star laying on the ground, the doctor points were the cuts had been made, but stops as she sees Aragon kneel down to the victim and going against protocol, he closes her eyes.
"I'm sorry"- whisper the man.
Dorothea asked to be taken to Star's locker, within was her personal belonging but nothing relevant, just her makeup kit, and her cheerleader uniform. A random policeman walks up to Dorothea and told her a teacher would show her Star's hallway locker.
"It's not your fault"- said Dorothea as Aragon follow close behind.
He knew the cheerleader shouldn't have been involved, but without evidence or a probable cause there was no way for him to start an official investigation against Jazz Fenton, Aragon clearly underestimated the redhead and her bloodlust.
Seeing how she ripped through Star and even cut her tongue, show just how vicious she is. The cheerleader was by no means an investigator, the detective knew the girl must have done something that gave her away.
"It's a message… Star found out something important and Jazz killed her for it. The cut tongue means she wouldn't let her talk"- said Aragon as both reach the locker.
Dorothea knew her brother had made it into something personal with the redhead but she had her own demons to face, throughout the whole weekend Internal Affairs had been questioning her about her take during Jazz's kidnapping, the woman couldn't explain why she didn't answer the radio or her cellphone.
It shamed her to know she was dancing and singing along hundreds like a teenager, it wasn't as if she couldn't hear the calls, at the time she just didn't care to answer for all she knew, she had to praise Ember no matter what.
Upon hearing Ember's voice, she couldn't stop dancing and singing, it was almost as if she was starving for it, to hear the diva sing. She firmly believed that the more she dances the more she'll hear Ember's voice.
Of course, she would never tell Internal Affairs about being under some spell, instead she had to lower herself to the idea of being a vivid fan of the rocker and couldn't hear neither the radio or cellphone calls.
"Hey Danny, what the hell happened?"- question Tucker as he enters the classroom.
Danny looks at him with a question of his own, for the boy wanted to know why his best friend was wearing a green ponytail wig, black pants and a shirt with Ember's face on it.
"Don't know and what's with the get up?"- Question the boy as Sam Manson joined them.
"It's something between me and Ember. You wouldn't understand"- replied Tucker
"Yeah you look unique"- added the goth as she looks around the classroom, "each and every one of you."-
The whole classroom had teens wearing similar clothes as Tucker, girls had dyed their hair into the same green color as Ember, while both boys and girl dress in black imitating the rock diva.
Ever since the concert ended, teens and even adult alike started to dress like the rocker, some women presented themselves at their work with green hair which displeased their bosses.
At the Fenton house, Jazz had to endure Maddie constantly checking on her while she read her books in the comfort of her room, the redhead wanted to keep her mind busy as to not suffer for Danny's absence.
Rather than hearing the door knocked constantly, the redhead moves to the living room with the intention of watching television under her mother's vigilant eye, it was better than this way then to constantly answer the door.
Jazz could easily relate to the main character of the soap opera she was watching, the lead actress struggle as her family refuse to accept the man she loved, and tried to force her to married another.
"I understand you girl, gotta fight the world to be with the man you love"- said Jazz to the television.
From the kitchen Maddie asked if Jazz was talking to her, but before she could answer the doorbell rang forcing the woman to come out from the kitchen with her anti-ghost handgun which resemble more a toy gun than an actual firearm.
The redhead looked at the poor attempts her mother was trying, if she wanted to scare off any potential threats, the woman could have at least tried to used something that look more realistic rather than a toy gun she claims was excellent for fighting ghosts.
On the other side of the door was detective Aragon and his partner Dorothea, feeling far more relax Maddie open the door letting the officers walk inside, Jazz barely mutter a "hello" while she continues watching the soap opera.
The man told Jazz he was already close on arresting Johnny but the patrol would stay for longer, as a safety precaution, the girl only smiles as to show she was grateful for his help, but the moment Maddie when to the kitchen to get the officer some refreshments, Aragon slide closer.
"You wouldn't happened to know a girl named Star Griffin"- said the officer showing a picture of the cheerleader.
Peeling her eyes off the television to the picture, she realized they already found the body as expected but she wanted to know why she was being asked. Jazz made sure to leave Valery's hair in the victims' hands.
It was impossible for them to have missed it out, perhaps she should have left gang signs or something, she was sure to have used the right type of gloves, the murder weapon and all the clothes she used were burned.
"Never seen her"- replied the girl as she turns her attention back to the ending of show.
"She was murdered recently, so I was wondering if you saw anything strange, people that shouldn't be at school, gangs perhaps?"- said the man as Maddie return with soda and chips.
Jazz took a long sip of soda before telling him about not noticing anything like what he mentions, Aragon would have fooled the redhead if Star hadn't loosed her tongue near her, the man was a good liar but so was Jazz.
"Have you asked mister Lancer? If I recalled correctly, he was very close to the cheerleader team, especially with Paulina"- said Jasmine as she tilts her head.
Maddie instantly implied if the teacher had something to do with the whole prostitution thing that was so resound a few months ago, Aragon heavily questioned the teacher but nothing ever came out.
And yet his main suspect though not officially, had thrown the teacher under the bus, the man was far too close with the football team and the cheerleaders, perhaps he was a client of Paulina, maybe Jazz provide the "potion" and made the tan cheerleader into a prostitute.
"Thank you for the drinks ma'am, we'll be in contact if anything comes up"- said the detective.
He knew they had nothing against the girl, not a single piece of evidence and he was sure Jazz knew this, she didn't flinch upon being told about the murder nor she mention any sort of details, but Aragon was sure she was lying.
A few hours later Danny came back home in company of Sam and Tucker, it was something the redhead dislike very much but had to bite her tongue as to not be obvious, but unlike before she couldn't get in their way as Maddie insisted on having some mother-daughter bonding.
The teens spent the whole evening playing videogames and pretended to do their homework, until Jazz show Danny how to do the math problems, the English ones, social studies and history.
But was especially harsh on Sam, constantly questioning if she was paying attention to anything she said. Somehow Sam did the homework without trying to torn off Jasmine's red hair of her scalp. An hour later Sam as before left Fenton's works first leaving her boys behind, and like before Jazz made sure the goth left.
"Danny, remember that talk we had a few days ago?"- asked the boy in an oddly serious tone despite his silly ponytail wig he wore.
Tucker still believed Sam was cheating on him, but still had no proof. He explains how he wanted to take her to Ember's concert but she didn't accept as she was busy babysitting that night and couldn't leave the kid alone.
So, like a good boyfriend he went to help her out with the kid, but was told she had gone out with her friends, never once answering the phone during the night and coming back Sunday night. All kind of ideas dawn on his prepubescent head, but nothing that seem believable, he was sure Sam had friends outside school, perhaps she was ashamed to presented him to her rich friends.
"Normally she babysits the kid on Wednesdays, so I figure I could help her out but she got really angry when she saw me"- said Tucker.
The boy wasn't allowed to called or visit her when she babysat Stacy, as Sam told him she needed to concentrate on the little brat and could easily lose track of time if she started to talk with him on the phone, even worse if he came over.
Something was at odds with Sam that was for sure, but after all the goth went through it was natural that things would change. The boy assured Tucker that she just needed space and that he shouldn't be so clingy on her.
Later that night Danny had a hard time falling asleep especially since Jazz was in her own bedroom, the girl helps him keep the dream demons away from him, he was sure of that after last night.
Just like the night before Maddie insisted on staying with her, for the second night Jack slept with his back against her door holding a "Fenton anti-creep stick," not wanted to take any chances.
It brought a smile to Danny went he saw his sister wearing a pink pajama, normally she would prefer to sleep in the nude even if Danny was with her, but there was no way she would do the same with her mother.
The faces of those he murders and the fact he could never tell anyone was starting to weight on him, keeping the boy from sleeping, his digital watch read 2:00 am, he dearly hopes the police could find Johnny soon otherwise he might have to solved the problem on his own.
Feeling thirsty, Danny walk out to the kitchen, he could see the large dark figure his father made as he rested with his back against the door, Danny knew Maddie was sleeping with Jazz, it seems she was feeling far more guilty than expected.
The boy stops dead on his tracks mid-stairs upon hearing voices, his heart beat furiously at the idea of burglars breaking in, knowing all too well his sister and his parents were asleep Danny uses his ghost power to turn invisible.
Phasing through the wall unto the kitchen he sees two men dress in classic biker gear, thanks to the moonlight that shines through the window Danny can make out the logo on the vests both bikers wore.
A pig with a mohawk riding a motorcycle, the ghost boy recognized the logo from the bikers who kidnapped his sister and the ones he fought in the abandoned hotel, it surprises him to know they were so stupid to come after them again, in their own home with police on the lookout.
"Just how desperately do they want to fuck my sister?"- Questioned Danny.
The boy firmly believed the gang's only true intentions were to deflowered his sister, it sickens him to the core as he lay his eyes upon the men that broke into his house, the fancy tech his father place around the house to detect intruders was garbage meant to find ghosts.
One that wasn't even activated for that matter as Jack had forgotten the activation code. Danny took hold of the closes biker by the hair and slammed him against the wall, knocking him out in an instant.
Hearing the thud his friend made, forces the second biker to turn around, upon seeing his bearded friend on the floor, makes him quickly pulls out his handgun and points it around the living room before going back into the kitchen.
A powerful punch to the back of his head knocks out the biker, Danny glares at both unconscious men while debating what to do with them. Handing them over to the police would be the most reasonable course of action.
"We're going to take a little ride"- said Danny as an unusual fury arise within him.
The boy needed to make sure Johnny and his gang would never come to his house again or even dare to looked over to his sister's direction, he takes hold of both men by their ankles and flies away with them.
As morning came by Jazz opens the door letting her father slide down, she could barely get any decent sleep as her mother's stench kept waking her up, unlike Danny's wonderful fragrance that let her sleep like a princess.
The girl's ready coffee and considers making the breakfast she couldn't do for Danny but it would also mean to cook for her parents, she chose to settle with the coffee, as she waited for the drink to be ready, she notices a strange bump on the wall.
Passing her hand over the bump she realizes the wood was broken only kept in its place by the wallpaper, a few seconds later a shirtless Danny walks inside the kitchen, his eyes instantly glue themselves to the wall where his sister was touching.
"I kinda slipped last night and crash my head on the wall"- said Danny.
Jazz instantly rush over to her brother and took hold of his head, checking for any wounds or bumps of any kind, but Danny assured her that he was fine, even after she told him about the broken wood.
"Come on babe, the place is old, it doesn't take much to break it"- said Danny.
Wednesday came by as Danny's previous day was filled with boredom, constantly ignoring the calls his "crime" app gave him, even now he ignores them while overviewing Sam's mansion from the rooftop of a three-story apartment complex.
Danny knew he was acting silly, but he wasn't the only to do this as Tucker was hidden near the dumpsters watching if any swinging dick came to see his "girlfriend." Stacy was drop off at 4:00 pm, but after couple of hours and no one else came.
The ghost boy could see his friend leave his hiding spot, even from his high place Danny could tell Tucker seem happy his suspicions were all in his head, Danny also relaxed as he recalls his sister being pamper by their mother.
The woman had a soft spot for the redhead even more now than before, there was a time he felt jealous of the extra attention his sister got from his mother but now he was glad the girl was so loved.
Standing on the edge and ready to fly to his next appointment, Danny notices something strange, a boy walking over to Sam's door, Tucker had left some ten minutes ago, using his invisibility, Danny glides down.
The boy had short brown hair, and was neatly dress. New jeans and a brand-named polo shirt, his hair properly combed, the boy even wore cologne, he didn't to have come just to pick up the little girl, it seem more like he was coming to a date.
"Glad you made it Brian"- greeted Sam as she let the boy inside the house.
Danny's heart beat fast as he followed her into the living room, he was hopeful the guy came to pick up the little girl, for a moment Danny calmed down as he saw the boy asked Stacy if she had a fun time.
Perhaps he exaggerated things like always but his agitation came back once Stacy asked if he was going to read poems with Sam upstairs, Danny saw them run up to Sam's room while the girl remain in the living room watching her princess theme cartoon. The ghost boy stood unable to process what just happened, Sam was cheating on Tucker.
"No, that can't be right, maybe they're just reading poems, yeah that right"- said Danny as he slowly glided over the stairs.
The boy hadn't felt this strange sensation in such a long while, not since he caught Sam in bed with Gregor so long ago, but he could recognize the same emptiness in the pit of his stomach, the tingly feeling in his hands, the slow yet powerful heartbeat.
His lips tremble as he heard the exact same noise, he heard so many months ago, unlike before Danny phase through the door while staying invisible, his green eyes open wide at the scene before him.
Tucker's suspicions were true, Sam tightly embrace this boy named Brian as she sways her hips unto his, penetrating herself with his penis, kissing lustfully. Their tongues danced with each other.
Danny looks at her with an incredulous stare, after all that happened, after Tucker back her up while he couldn't, she simply threw herself to arms of another guy without caring if Tucker is in love with her.
Hearing her moan accompanied by the natural odor of sex made Danny have a reaction, he wasn't aroused by his best friend having sex but he couldn't take his eyes away from her.
"She's not my girlfriend, she's with Tucker so I shouldn't intervene." Said the ghost boy as he leans in closer.
Sam gave herself to this boy without any doubt or restraint, she enjoyed every inch of him to the fullest, the goth pushed her lover over his back as she began riding his penis, Danny couldn't help but look at her in a lustful way.
Danny didn't in anyway had a cheating fetish but seeing the couple make love was far too enticing to ignored, the ghost boy leans in closer phasing through the bed to get a better look.
The only vagina he had ever seen in real life was is sister's as embarrassing as it may be, all others were inside his computer. But seeing one being used was something he never seen up close.
No matter how explicit the porn movie is, it couldn't give out the same feeling as seeing it in real life, the smell, the sloppy sounds, it was so different from a movie, unlike the actresses with their fake moaning and exaggerated movements.
Sam's moaning was soft but eventually became louder though for a brief moment, her hip swaying was slow, she didn't need to open her legs unnaturally for a camera, the goth could enjoy her time pleasing Brian and herself.
The two finished at the same time, there wasn't a silly loud moan or a leg trembling like in Danny's movies, her eyes didn't roll into her head as she orgasmed, nor did she faint out of pleasure, she did grin her teeth for a moment as Brian filled the condom he was wearing.
Having recover his mental sanity Danny flee the scene before he transforms back. Sam hugged her cousin as she could feel his penis slide out of her, but he soon.
"That was incredible Sam, I love you." Said the boy as he kisses the goth.
Danny flew away with his face red as a beet, though embarrassed as he was the boy didn't regret watching her make love, he had seen Sam make many faces throughout the years but never like one he just saw, though it was the second time he saw her naked.
Unsurprisingly the first thing he did upon learning how to use his invisibility was to sneak into the girl's showers, but quickly learn to spy only on the cheerleaders, as all the other girls were a buzzkill.
The ghost boy arrived to his second appointment of the day, he glided inside an old abandoned factory. Amity park had a sudden and unplanned city expansion many years ago, but most new factories couldn't hold up.
Places like hotel Amity Plaza where Jazz was taken to, went under for the lack of visitors, the place had two hundred rooms, gym and a pool among other luxurious commodities, but still went under.
The factory wasn't any different as it expanded for almost a whole kilometer, with all kind machinery and even a garage for trucks, but the factory closed down for the lack of government support.
Danny looks at the two biker who broke into his house a few nights ago, both hanging by a chain tied to their feet, tossing a rock to their faces in order to drawn their attention. Both bikers saw the boy standing on a catwalk with the large window behind him showing the descending sun.
Their faces redden for having been hanging for two days, one of the bikers looks at the boy and begs him to let them go as the other one promises never to come back, but Danny glares at both men as he comes closer.
"Sorry I left you hanging but I need to asked a single question"- said Danny.
The boy made sure to let the hanging men be well aware he would dip them inside an oil vat, if they refuse to answer his question. Slowly the boy lowers the men leaving their head just a few inches above the cold black oil, before pulling them back up. Just to make a point.
Knowing all too well they couldn't' intimidate the boy, both agree to answer his question, no longer they had any sort of loyalty for their leader. Johnny and the gang could rot in hell for all the men care for.
"I suppose you work for Johnny. So, where is he?"- question the boy.
"He's at the office!"- instantly replied the bearded biker.
Gently pulling the biker by his hair, Danny asked him where this "office" is. Breathing heavy the man gives out detail directions to a nightclub called the "Barracuda," a club for misfits, outcast and all-around scum.
It was perfect fort for a good for nothing, lowlife piece of shit such as Johnny, the second biker wanted to tried a last attempt to intimidate the boy so he adds more details, according to him there were more than thirty bikers guarding their leader at all times, not to mention the local criminals.
With a smile in his face Danny pulls out the handgun he stole from the bikers, the men go quiet as both had heard rumors about the boy and his unusual strength, even their fearsome leader with his hocus-pocus was beaten to a pulp.
"You know, killing others isn't as hard as I once thought. The first guy I murder was a boy, little son of a bitch raped my best friend so I beat him into mush, he didn't make it." Said Danny as he spins the gun around his finger like a cowboy.
It was the first time he could tell anyone about what he did, even if he never acted upon it, the weight of his crimes was pushing him down little by little, only finding solace and comfort in his sister's arms.
Killing the bikers to save his sister didn't help remove the burden, Danny knew it was absolutely necessary for Jasmine's safety or at least that was the excuse he used during the weekend to justified his crimes.
The police would never come looking for him, since "magic" isn't considered real, there was simply no way they could ever link him to the murders. With a deep breath he makes two glowing white rings around his waist.
Both bikers looked in horror at how the black hair boy was cover in this strange white glow, the smell of burn flesh come to their nose, soon the boy sported a strange skintight black suit, his white boots and gloves match with his white hair.
"I know it's stupid to use a gun to kill you guy since I have ghost powers but I always wanted to fire one, at least once"- said Phantom as the bikers beg for their lives. Two gunshots echo throughout the factory as the muzzle flash escape through the windows, and a figure with a wiggle tail flew away a few minutes after.
Over at the police station Aragon and his partner Dorothea were looking at a chart with photos and names all connected with strings, in the middle of the chart was Jazz Fenton school picture and a symbol of interrogation above.
Amity Park wasn't new to murder or drug trade, but it had been a couple of decades since they last had a serial killer, two confirmed murders in the same location though by different MOs, and third though in a different place but still a student from the same school, it was too much of a coincidence.
And the recent rise in violence was also something unexpected, a gang war was something never seen in Amity before. Though a complete nightmare for the police and the average citizen, the media on the other hand was having a field day with the new crime wave.
The police chief was skeptical about Jazz being part of the case, despite Aragon's sureness. The redhead simply didn't fit in all the mess, an honored student of Casper high being secretly a drug dealer or even a murder was too far-fetched.
She had no motive to carry out the murders, according to the corner it required a great deal of strength to bludgeon Poindexter giving all the broken bones and dented aluminum bat, the same applied for Star as she was brutally stabbed to death.
"Forget it Aragon, you got nothing against her. Let's go see how Valery Grey's interrogation is going." Said the police chief.
"Hey guys, I been thinking maybe we've been looking at this the wrong way. What if it didn't start with Gregor"- said the afro hair detective as he enter the room with a long smile.
He explains how they assumed it all started with Gregor's death, followed by Poindexter and now Star. The man suggested how they perhaps should be looking more into the first victim of the case: Sam Manson.
"I'm working on a lead, this is all about money, I think Jazz tried to blackmail the girl, when she refused to pay up, Jazz had Gregor rape her, but the boy double cross her and she sent to kill him. I've been examining the video and found out the background layout, I found out after picking up my kid, that it's the Amity Park's library parking lot."- explain the detective.
A half worn out sign appeared beyond the car back window, just against the brick wall next to a dumpster that barely appear in the video, Aragon demanded to know if there were any cameras overviewing the library.
It was most unfortunate that there weren't any around the library as the place never needed any special security not even a nightguard, but that didn't dissuade the man as he was more than sure any local business must have a camera.
Aragon knew it was too late to check Jasmine's car, but if they could somehow put her in the crime scene, they could move against her and bring down the "Red Witch" along with Jazz, and give Star the justice she deserves.
Gregor and Poindexter were both rapist that met their end in a cruel way but Star was an innocent civilian who wanted to help. Before leaving to scout out the most likely business to have a camera that could help them, Aragon asked why is fellow detective thought Sam was being blackmail.
"I've been looking around and found out Samantha Manson is actually adopted, according to the record she was found on the riverbanks near highway 190, the Manson's took her in before she was two months old"- said the man.
The police chief intervenes asking why would the Fenton's or rather Jazz Fenton tried to blackmail the Manson Family, since the girl is a very good friend with their youngest son, and are still close.
"The Fenton's are really deep with the bank, I pull some strings and found the family owes the bank over eight million dollars"- said the afro hair detective.
Dorothea asked how was it possible for a middle-class family like the Fenton to owe so much money, Jack was a big spender, he started with an RV he converted to ghost hunting tank, build an OP- center on his house roof, and a fully equip laboratory which blew up last year..
Word on the street was that Jack not only owe the bank but also to some loan sharks as well, the man's ghost obsession had gotten the best of him and put his family's financial life in danger.
"There! That's' the motive, money! fucking money! Jazz tried to pay off her father's debt by dealing drugs but couldn't do it so she tried to blackmail Sam's father by exposing her adoption, he couldn't pay so she sent Gregor to give a message." Concluded Aragon.
It all fit perfectly for the detective who almost kiss his dark skin coworker, of course they would still have to see Valery's interrogation but her alibi was solid as she claims to have been with her boyfriend at party, over twelve guests confirm her presence.
The screams of women were drowning under the deafening sounds of gunfire at the Barracuda nightclub, an uninvited guest had made his way inside, hiding behind a wooden wall with a broken door in between, a pair of bikers look at the many bodies the rude client left.
"Can you see him?" question a biker with a blonde ponytail.
Before his allied could answer, a large green blade come from behind the wall stabbing him through the back, not wasting a single second the ponytail biker pulls himself across the door and shoots.
He could see the blood stain green blade but not who hold it, in least than a second the invisible man chops off his head. Down the hallway leading to the office and some other rooms were more bikers getting ready to fend off the vigilante.
Under the lightbulb the vigilante shows his true self, the white boots stain with blood as so were his glove, a strange porcelain mask covers his face but let his white hair show, the bikers fire at him but all the bullets just pass him without causing harm.
Within minutes over a dozen bikers lay dead on the floor, heads rolled across the floor stopping at a sever limp. Calmly Danny open the office door, Johnny was sitting in front of a desk with two men with ak47 rifles ready to attack.
But men drop the weapons as they lifted their hands and tried to walk away, but as they came closer to Phantom, he mercilessly cut them in half by the waist. The blonde biker adjusted his bandage while looking at Kitty's ring.
"Its surprising how easy this is. To kill I mean." Said Danny as he put his energy blade under Johnny's chin.
The man didn't ask for pardon and didn't give an excuse as to why he kidnapped Jazz. Danny didn't care for the reasons, all he wanted was to make sure his beautiful sister would never be target by these scumbags.
Johnny didn't peel off his eyes of Phantom as he slowly pierce his throat, the blonde biker's body rapidly rot in the chair as ghostly scream was heard across the nightclub. He did it, Danny was sure Jazz was now safe.
The police sirens were his cue to leave, it was astonishing how fast he got used to blood and guts, any other teen would a puking mess at this point but not him. Danny hold on to his arms fearful of his savagery.
As he opens the door the first thing he noticed was Vlad sitting oddly close to his mother while a pretty girl with long black hair sat in front of them, all drinking tea, Jazz was at leaning at the kitchen doorframe with a mug in her hand, her eyes were extremely angry.
Vlad greeted Danny with an overly affectionate hug as he pulls the boy closer to the living room, Danny asked about his father's whereabout but Maddie told him the man had to run some errands.
"My little badger you remember my personal assistant Desiree. This is her daughter Danielle, and I was wondering since she's new in town if you could show her around tomorrow, if you like, think it like a date"- said Vlad with his businessman glee.
Crack!
Everyone in the living room instantly turn over to the where the sound originated, Jazz had broken her mug by squeezing a little too hard on it, breathing heavily she told Vlad her little brother was too young to be going out on dates.
"Oh really…" replied the man looking down on her. Danny was the only to notice how Jazz glow green and her red hair slightly lifted.
Maddie felt the tension growing between the two of them, she knew Vlad never got along with Jazz ever since she was born. The man knew to take a cue as he notices how troubled Maddie was about her daughter's sudden outburst.
After thanking Maddie for the tea and the attentions, Vlad and Danielle left the house ignoring the fact that Jazz slammed the door not even a second after they left, the long black hair girl adjusted her brand name pants and expensive shirt as she climbs aboard Vlad's limo.
"So, that's the boy" said the long hair girl.
"Don't forget our deal, keep him away from the bitch, while I do my thing. I don't care if you have to suck his dick for it. Fail me and it's off to the orphanage where I pick you up"- said Vlad.
To be continue.
