The Setting: Black Hole HQ
The Time: 8:30 PM
The Situation: Sturm's Murder
Drake, Andy, Sami, Max, Lash, Flak, and Hawke were all sitting on the couches. Eagle had stayed in the office to looked around.
"Sturm is dead?" Lash asked.
"Now that's odd," Hawke said. "Who would do that?"
Flak was silent. Sami kept watching him sternly. He looked up and saw her looking at him.
"What do you want?" he asked moodily.
Sami looked away. "Uh, nothing."
"Well, stop giving me that look, its annoying."
Flak seems to be in his normal mood, Sami thought. Doesn't her care at all that Sturm is dead?
Eagle came down the stairs, holding two objects. The weird weapon and the charm bracelet.
"Alright, two key pieces here. What is this thing supposed to be?"
He held out the strange gun.
"That's an EMP gun I invented," Lash said uncertainly. "I don't know how it got up there..."
"And this, I assume, is Flak's charm bracelet?"
Flak gasped. Everyone else was silent.
"Well?" Eagle asked.
"Um... yeah... that's mine," Flak said, looking at the floor.
"So, then," Eagle said. "The only thing I can think of as suspects were to be you and Hawke. Lash never went upstairs. Everyone else seems to be innocent, as we were all in this very room."
"What about Andy and Max?" Hawke asked. "They went up to get Sturm, they could have done it!"
"Let's see here," Eagle said. "Hawke, you went upstairs, making you a suspect."
Hawke's expression changed. "But Flak went upstairs, too!"
"I know," Eagle said. "So, by all means, the killer could be either one of you Black Hole characters!"
Flak, Lash, and Hawke gasped.
"But... what about Sami and Andy?"
"I told them to go get Sturm. Besides, we would have heard the EMP gun go off, and..."
Eagle stopped talking.
"Wait... we didn't hear it anytime else, either..."
"Thats right!" Drake said. "How could have Sturm been murdered?"
"Um..." Lash spoke up.
"What is it?" Flak asked.
"Well... I made a special addition to the EMP Gun... I gave it a silencer."
Everyone fell silent.
"Damn fool!" Hawke said. "It's your fault this happened!"
"Silence, please," Eagle said. "Let's go over this again... Flak and Hawke went upstairs. Everyone else stayed down here. Hawke, what were you doing?"
"I was going to get the thing I forgot, I told you all before I left!"
"Where was it?"
"My office," Hawke said.
"Flak, where were you?"
"My own office," Flak explained. "But as I was walking by Hawke's office, I didn't notice the light on. Someone was moving around in Lash's lab..."
"Wait. Her lab is located on the second floor?"
"Yeah, she uses it as her own office."
"Hmmm... Hawke, what did you do in your office?"
"I went to get the item," Hawke said.
"What is this item, anyway?"
"Uh, this thing," he pulled a remote control out of his pocket.
"A TV Remote?"
"Sometimes he takes it upstairs with him," Lash explained. "He always uses it for his own TV."
"I did hear it when I walked by... the TV..." Flak recalled. "He must have used that for light."
"Why a TV?" Eagle questioned.
"Well, I was catching up on the begining of my favorite show," Hawke said. "The light helped me find the remote."
"I see," Eagle said. "Flak, what did you do in your office?"
"I was looking through my papers," Flak said. "Like I said before, someone was in Lash's lab..."
"You could be lying..." Eagle said. "Either one of you."
Flak and Hawke looked at each other.
"Damn it, it was not me!" Hawke said.
"I'll need to think over the facts," Eagle said. "Excuse me..."
