Chapter Two
The Setting: Blue Moon HQ; The Meeting Room where Olaf, Kanbei, and Grit had their Meeting
The Time: 7 PM
The Situation: Olaf and Kanbei dead, Grit stabbed.
Eagle, Nell, Sensei, and Andy were at the crime scene. Everyone else was sent to wait downstairs.
"Why is Andy along?" Eagle asked Nell.
"Well, he seems to notice things a lot. I thought he might be of use."
Andy looked at the ground. "Hey..."
"What?" Sensei turned.
"There's blood on the ground! But no body?"
"That must be Grit's blood, when he was stabbed," Eagle said, observing. "Wha-?"
Eagle picked something off the ground.
"What is it?" asked Sensei, stepping over to them.
"Its a coin," Andy mused. "But it could be anybody's!"
---
Downstairs, everybody stood waiting and talking about what had just happened.
"I can't believe it!" Jess said. "Olaf and Kanbei dead! I hope Grit's okay..."
"Me too," said Sami. "Who would be terrible enough to do this?"
Eagle, Nell, Sensei, and Andy came down the stairs.
"Silence, please!" Eagle said. "Everyone, I'll need your cooperation to list the suspects. Now, when Grit announced the meeting, he took three bottles of wine from the cabinet. Why not from the boxes or crates?"
"I...I saved those for our meeting! They were too cold, they needed to get out of the fridge!" Grit said.
"As if! Warm wine tastes like crap," Eagle said. "Anyone else suspectable?"
"Well..." Andy started. "I know three people who went upstairs at the time of the meeting!"
"Who?" Eagle asked.
"Well, first Colin left..."
"I-I didn't kill him, if thats what you mean!" Colin stuttered.
"Then there was Sturm..."
Sturm stood silently, nobody knowing what his expression was.
"...and then Sonja."
Sonja's face went stern.
Hachi stood from his chair. "Thats crazy! Sonja couldn't have killed them, she found their bodies!"
"But it could be an act," Nell said. "She poisioned Olaf and Kanbei, then stabbed Grit. Then she let Grit leave and... wait..."
"She wouldn't let Grit leave!" Jess said.
"She might have," Sensei said.
"Hachi, whats that in your pocket?"
Everyone turned.
"Its... its nothing! Keep back!"
Sami pulled it out of Hachi's pocket.
"Its a bottle!"
Everyone looked at Hachi.
"What? I needed my medicine!"
"But you hate medicine!" Andy said.
"Damnit, I did not poison them!"
"I don't recall Hachi going upstairs," Andy said. "He couldn't have done it... unless..."
"Nevermind that," Eagle said. "Our main suspects are: Grit, Colin, Sturm, and Sonja! Possibly Hachi also!"
Everyone's expressions harded as they heard their names.
"This is insane," Adder muttered.
"I know, but play along," Lash said. "We can't be suspects."
"You're right," Adder said. "Whats the point of hanging around? I'm going out for a smoke."
He opened the sliding glass door and went out to the large balcony.
"I think we should all take a break," Eagle said. "Stay here, everybody. Do not leave the HeadQuarter areas!"
---
There were two sides of the balcony. One by the backyard, and one by the side. They were both connected.
Sami and Nell were at the backyard part. They were watching the night sky in lawn chairs.
"I can't believe this happened..." Nell said.
"Can they really be... dead?" Sami asked.
They were silent for the next few minutes.
"I wonder..."
Just then, a scream shattered the silence. Sami and Nell both stood.
"What was that?" Nell said.
"It came from the side balcony!"
As they listened, they heard something else.
"Hey, what are you- gaah!"
They both ran down the balcony and turned to the side. They both stopped when they saw the cause of the noise.
Grit was sitting in a lawn chair, covered with blood. He was dead. But he wasn't the only victim.
Adder was on the side yard. His hat had fallen off, and blood was matting his purple hair and running down his face. He too was dead.
"Some... somebody get Eagle! They're dead!"
