Epilogue
The wind blew softly; rustling the fallen leaves and the green sparkles still clinging to the trees. Brown eyes stared into the sky, blinking every now and then. It was quiet. A lot different from what had happened in the last few years. The dark skinned cop took a breath and sighed. Earlier he had poured out the whole story, from beginning to end, leaving out the encounter with demons and the mysterious murders that happened along the way. He had covered that part up marvelously, to protect the people's humanity and even their sanity.
Montiegro sighed again. It felt somewhat strange now that the truth was out. His superiors knew he was in love with the "criminal" and yet, he was happy. Not once did he complain about this or that. Not once did he yell or scream. Not once did he give up hope. No one recognized his honorable and dutiful actions. No one took into account of how he felt through such a terrible mess, and truthfully, the cop felt damned proud of himself.
Cyn- no – Annahalese didn't know what really happened when she was kidnapped. She didn't know that she had just been in a sleep-like state during the years she had been gone. She thought that only a few months had gone by and no one said a word. The Mexi-American smiled. She did now. Though she found that a lot of the information she had barely been seeking, had been somewhat degrading, she knew the truth now, and that was all that mattered. The cop might not have been able to stop many people from getting hurt, but most of the truth had come out and there was just one last thing he needed to worry about, whether or not Annahalese was convicted.
Montiegro turned, straightened his suit blazer and started up the Court steps. Recess was over.
