CHAPTER EIGHT:
Fingerprints
"This is stupid, why am I even a suspect? Its my house, why would I want blood all over in it and stuff?" Mighty complained, he was irritated by Tails who was now taking everyone's fingerprints.
"Honestly, Mighty, you're my main suspect! It was you who gave us the clues, you who brought us here! All you!" Tails shot back.
"Innocent till proven guilty, besides, I think you're the killer!" Mighty accused Tails. "Besides, everyone has gloves on, why would the killer leave prints"
"You don't have gloves." Sonic stated, he'd been listening in on the conversation. "You know, your bickering only furthers our suspicions"
"Sonic, have you found Shadow yet?" Tails asked.
"No, he's probably at the bar. I wonder if he killed Chudley." Sonic answered. "Well Tails I'm off"
"To where"
"To do some investigation on my own."
Sonic slowly walked down the stairs, in fear they'd break. He was in the basement again to do a more thorough check. He was searching for the light switch when he realized something strange. There was a bust looking right at him. It wasn't the bust of a family member. It was a bust of Eggman. What the hell is this doing down here? On further inspection of the bust he realized that Eggman's head flipped up. What was under? A button. Sonic pushed it. A loud rumbling began. The room shook, and the back wall began to sink into the ground.
A whole new room had opened up. In this new room was a giant monitor, and a giant keyboard under it. A chair was settled at the keyboard. Many cords came out of the monitor and went every way.
Sonic was so confused. On the screen it said: Date: Friday, December 4 Temperature: -6 degrees Current Personality: Dr. Ivo Robotnick He was starting to wonder about his sanity. And then words started appearing on the screen they said: Long time-no-see eh, Sonic?
Tails had found a fingerprint in Chudley's blood. Now he was suspecting Mighty. After analysis, his conclusion was: Mighty was the killer. But why? Where was the motive? Did he need one to kill?
"Hey tails, what's up?" Sonic asked "When did you get here? Oh never mind, I think the case is closed. Did you find anything?" Tails asked.
"No, just a bunch of dust. You seen Mighty"
"Uh, I think he's in the lounge, I'd stay away…Where'd you go Sonic?" Sonic had already left.
"Mighty, he's on to us." Sonic said as he entered the lounge.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave any traces, master" Mighty answered.
"If my plan fails, I'm going to kill you"
"Yes, master"
"Go after Vector next, his skills will only get in our way. I can't have a detective here"
"What about tails"
"I'll take him…" Sonic replied.
What is this new plan Sonic has created? Could it be that it's a plan to get Amy? Keep in mind that every story needs a plot twist, one bad thing has to go wrong before the good guy wins, but who is the good guy?
