CHAPTER NINE
Fox stood in disbelief at what Theresa had just said. She said she killed Ethan and Gwen. He didn't believe her. Maybe she was so shocked that she didn't want to see the truth and somehow came to the conclusion that she killed them. Fox looked out the window as he saw her running towards the police car. "No." Fox thought, "I can't let her do this, I can't let her throw her life away like this. She didn't kill them. I KNOW she didn't. I've got to stop her." Without further hesitation Fox ran out of the open door towards them.

"What do you know about the murder, Theresa?" Sam asked Theresa.
Theresa looked down to the ground and wiped the tears that blinded her eyes. "I know who did it. I know who killed them." she said.
Luis saw the condition that Theresa was in and took a few steps over to her. "Who was it Theresa?" he asked.
Theresa took in a deep breath as she looked into Luis's eyes, "It was-"
"ME!" a voice yelled from behind.
Theresa swung around, the voice sounded familiar, it sounded like...Fox's? Theresa threw a questioning glance at Fox. He didn't kill them! She did.
Fox looked at Theresa and then looked back at Sam and Luis. "It was me. I killed them."
Theresa stood in shock as Fox said he killed him. She wanted to yell that he didn't, that she killed them, but her lips didn't open. She just stood, and watch as they handcuffed Fox.
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say or do can be used against you in the court of law." Sam recited.
"No Luis! Don't let him do this! Fox didn't kill them, I did! I killed them! Just don't hurt Fox!" Theresa screamed as she began to sob.
Luis walked over to his sister and hugged her. "Shh, I know what it is. You feel Fox is the only person you have left that cares for you so you don't want to see him thrown in jail." he said.
"No!" Theresa said backing away from Luis. "I killed them. And I have evidence." she ran over to her car and opened the truck. Sam, Luis, and Fox all stood confused as they saw Theresa pull out a gun from her trunk. She hesitated and walked slowly over to them. "There. There's the gun I killed them with." she cried.
Sam looked at Luis and then at Fox. He slowly uncuffed Fox and walked over Theresa. He read her Miranda Rights to her as he put the cuffs on her hands. Theresa avoided looking in Luis and Fox's eyes. She knew that they were both shocked and disappointed at what she had done.
"Theresa..." Fox whispered as Sam helped Theresa into the back of the cop car. It was the first time Theresa had ever seen Fox cry. It hurt her heart to know that she was the reason for him crying. Sam closed the door to the car and Theresa hung her head in shame the whole way to the police department.
