Mako's Message: Ten hour shifts and sick children are not conducive to writing. Fortunately, I still have one more complete chapter so I should have 155 up on schedule. There's also a fact in here that I took from...I don't remember. Some cop drama. Might have been CSI or L&O. So take it up with them if I'm wrong.


I fucked up.

I really did.

Marcus even woke me up this morning to tell me I'd fucked up.

Those where his exact words. "You fucked up."

At first I thought he was talking about the pedo-rapist, but he didn't sound mad mad. Then he told me to get dressed and to meet him down in the kitchen. And that's where he explained just how exactly I'd fucked up.

He was right. I should have followed Jessi. If I'd tailed her I could have stopped what happened.

But, really, how could I have guessed that Jessi was going to go home and kill her family?

Okay, thinking back on it this shouldn't have been such a surprise. But this is JESSI we're talking about. I'd have never thought she had it in her.

Well, technically she only killed her father. The last Marcus heard it could go either way with her brother. For Jessi's sake I hope she succeeded. You almost always get less time for murder than attempted murder.

Of course, letting jessi go home alone wasn't the only way I fucked up.

I gave her the murder weapon.

Oh, and I was also the last person to see her before she did this.

Which is why I spent the better part of the day at the police station answering questions.

"What did she talk about"

"What do you know about the guy she was going to meet?"

"What do you know about her family?"

"Why did you give her a knife?"

"Why did you have a knife?"

"Why did you let her walk home alone?"

"Didn't any of this make you suspicious?"

Fortunately I've taken a few levels in bullshitting and they didn't seem to think there was anything more they could get from me.

After the third, fourth, or twelfth round of questioning.

I still can't believe that Jessi did this.


Jessi Fact:Jessi is in fact bi-sexual and had been harboring a crush on Mindy for quite some time. However, Mindy is the first person she's admitted having these sorts of feelings to. She had a legitimate interest in boys, such as Dillon, unfortunately, most of the boys that weren't complete douches and just wanted to bang her were either intimidated by her(she does have a really nice figure), didn't notice her(she is fairly shy outside of her immediate circle of friends), or intimidated(Mindy can be scary if she doesn't like you). Or in Dillon's case, interested in someone else in the group.
