Murder At Midnight



Adam, Shalimar, Jesse and Brennan sat in front of the television set watching Proxy Blue talk about weird things that were going around the city, like people who were able to hold their breaths for over twenty minutes, people who could make people feel whatever why the felt, and people who could move things with their minds. Proxy Blue had disappeared for a little while after Mason Eckhart had tapped into her system but now everything was fine. Proxy Blue looked different now, instead of blue hair she now had long white hair that was pulled back, and her eyes now seemed more alive. Proxy Blue stopped talking for a second as she downloaded some new information.

"There has been a severe fire and a murder on Tree Drive road, the murdered is Mr. Peter Johnston, the famous prostitue murder who was just realised on probation a few days ago. He has killed seven prositutes from the age range of 16 up to the age of thirty five." Proxy Blue said in her normal suspicious voice. "Police are having difficulties finding the culprit who started the fire in the apartment building, when they interviewed many of the people who lived in the building with Peter they said that they had not seen anybody who had not lived their, and nobody went up to his apartment saying that he was unfriendly." Proxy Blue talked for a few more minutes about Peter Johnston and his crimes and the murder itself.

Emma who was sitting at the table finishing off her breakfast looked over at the other people who seemed to be captured in the Proxy Blue show. She looked over at them, having heard Proxy Blue talk about a murder that took place last night.

"I never heard of this Peter Johnston before? When did he kill these prositutes?" Emma called out, breaking the group from their trance of staring at the television set. Brennan was the first one to get up and walk over to the little table.

"In 2076, there was a serial killer who was kind of like Jack the Ripper except not as extreme as him. He would go out and pay for a prositutes service than after fucking her brains out he would get a knife and chop her head off." Brennan said, Emma looked up at him.

"I can't remember ever hearing about that on tv!" Emma said, Shalimar walked over to them.

"I doubt that you would remember that Emma, you would have only been ten when it happened." Shalimar said as Jesse and Adam walked over to the little group.

"So how was he caught?" Emma asked the group. Adam was the next to speak up.

"Well, I heard that his kid called the police on him, after finding her father murdering her mother. Due to law they could never say who the kid was, and they asked not to be identified. Some of the police looked at the job and was surprised that this man could do this cause it would have taken a great deal of force to murder these women." Adam said, "He was a telekinetic though!"

"What happened to his kid?" Shalimar asked, Adam looked at her as if to say something but he shut his mouth.

"The kid changed its name and went to live with family or something like that!" Adam said.

"Do you want us to investigate this since it is most like that a new mutant killed him?" Jesse said, finally escaping his daydream, Adam nodded his head.

"Shalimar, I want you and Jesse to go investigate the crime scene, and here these are so that you will look like part of a different level of police!" Adam said throwing them both badges that he had made for them awhile ago. "Brennan, Emma I want you to look for stuff on whatever happened to his kid, and to find out about some of the victims's families!" Adam said, before heading off into the lab leaving Shalimar and Jesse to go.

"I am going to finish my breakfast and than I will meet you at the computers, okay?" Emma said, as she dipped her spoon into the cereal. Brennan watched her and smiled.

Shalimar looked around the completely charred area, part of her did not like this scene, and she knew why, her feral instincts did not like fire and the aftermath of fire. Jesse did not really seem to care, he kicked a few big pieces of charcoal away from things, looking any clues.

"Jesse, do you think that he should have been murdered to pay for his crimes?" Shalimar asked him, waiting for a response, he looked over at her, and nodded his head. He felt that this monster deserved to die for what he had done, taking these women away from their familes he felt physically sick thinking about it.

"I cannot find any clues that the police couldn't find!" Shalimar said getting sick of not finding anything and feeling sort of depressed by the attitude that the charred building was giving her. Jesse nodded and both of them began to head for their car when Shalimar noticed something, it seemed to have a silver glint to it, she walked towards it, followed by Jesse who had also seen it, and she picked up the knife which had some blood covering it. Shalimar sniffed it quickly, she knew it was not that monster's blood, but the murderers. Jesse picked it up and put it in a bag and they began to drive back towards their home.

"His child name is not coming up on any of the computer traces that I have ran!" Emma said to Brennan who was looking over her shoulder at the computer screen. He sighed and walked over to the lab where Adam was, only to hear Shalimar and Jesse come quickly into the lab.

"We have found something that the murderer has left behind!" Jesse said, running up to Adam to give him the knife which was covered in a plastic bag so that the evidence could not be ruined. Adam looked at the knife, and put it down.

"I will test this later, I am researching Peter's telekinetic abilites, cause I really do not remember him coming in and getting Genomex to do this to him!" the three people who were the new mutants of the group looked at each other.

"Are you saying that this guy was a mutant, as in evolution, mutant?" Brennan asked, Adam nodded his head.

Later that night Adam looked down at the knife and pulled it out of its clear protection and was about to put it into the DNA scanner to see whos blood it belonged to when he heard someone limp into the room. Before he had a chance to turn around and look at the person. The person knocked him into acoma, where he would stay until the person let him out of the darkness.
