I DON'T OWN BLINDSPOT. IN THIS CHAPTER, I SORT OF PAY TRIBUTE TO SCREAM, MY FAVORITE SCARY MOVIE.

A few nights later, Mallory Wilson was sitting in her truck, a few miles away Avery and Alexander's apartment. She was armed with a Barrett .50 Cal American sniper rifle and she was watching two teenagers in her sight. One boy and one girl. They were talking, but she couldn't hear them. As the girl was about to head inside, Mallory delivered a head shot. The girl was killed instantly.

"Cici!" the boy cried out before he too was shot in the head. Mallory put her rifle in the truck and walked over to the corpses.

"That was way too easy." She said as she stood over the bodies. She pulled out a long knife from her waist and began to carve words into the bodies of her victims.

The next day, Avery woke up early, kissed a sleeping Alexander goodbye and headed for her early class. As she got to the building, she saw that there were news reporters on campus.

"The campus of Brown University was devastated last night when two young teenagers were found murdered and mutilated. Authorities have yet to issue a statement, but our sources tell us that no arrest has been made and the murderer could strike again." One reporter said. Avery was trying to figure out what was going on when she felt a hand grab her.

"Do you believe this shit?" It was Tonya Donovan, Avery's best friend.

"Damn!" Avery exclaimed. "What's going on?"

"You don't know?"

"No."

"Cici Loomis and Scott Maucher were killed last night." Tonya explained.

"What?" Avery said in shock. "No way."

"And we're not just talking killed, we're talking picked off from a long distance and carved like a ham."

"Cici? She sits next to me in Economics." Avery remarked.

"Not any more." Tonya remarked in return. "It's so sad. Her mom came down from Oregon and found her face down on the doorstep. The steps were soaked in blood."

"Oh, my God!" Avery said, shaking her head. "Do they know who did it?"

"Fucking clueless. I mean, they're interrogating the entire school: professors, students...

"They think it's school-related?"

"They don't know. They're grasping at straws, hoping for a clue. I mean, Stu said that this is the worst crime he's seen in years." Avery swore as they both headed to class.

Later that day, Avery, Billy, and their friends were joined by Alexander for a lunch on the quad. As they are, they couldn't help but talk about the murders.

"What kind of questions did the cops ask you, Avery?" Tonya asked.

"They asked if I knew Cici?" She replied.

"Yeah, they asked me that too."

"Hey, did they ask if you're into guns?" Billy asked as he looked at Stu Mayer: Tonya's boyfriend of 2 years.

"Yeah, they did." Stu replied. "Did they ask you?"

"Why would they ask you if you're into guns?" Tonya asked.

"Cause they were picked off." Randy Jessop replied. Randy wasn't really their friend. He just hung out with Billy and Stu to make himself look cool.

"Thank you, Randy." Billy replied.

"They didn't ask me if I like guns." Avery pointed out.

"It's 'cause there's no way a chick could've killed 'em." Stu insisted.

"That is so sexist, the killer could easily be female."

"Doubt it, after they got shot, Cici and Scott were carved up, their backs looked like hamburger meat, and the fact is, it takes a man to do something like that." Stu pointed out.

"How do you carve someone?" Avery asked. Everyone got quiet at this until Alexander spoke up.

"Well...you take a knife, and you press it down real deep into a person's flesh and then..." he started to say.

"Hey, it's called discretion, Curtis." Billy interrupted. Alexander shrugged as he ate.

"Hey, Stu, didn't you used to date Cici?" Avery asked.

"Not really, we sort of just hooked up a few times." Stu clarified.

"Before she started hooking up with Scott and told him to piss off." Randy remarked.

"I thought you dumped her for me?" Tonya inquired.

"I did." Stu defended. "He's full of shit."

"And are the police aware that you screwed the victim?" Randy asked.

"Hey, what're you saying?" Stu asked in turn. "I killed her?"

"Stu was with me last night." Tonya insisted.

"Yeah, I was." Stu smirked.

"Was that before or after he shot and mutilated?"

"Fuck you, jack off. Where were you last night?

"Working, thank you." Randy pointed out.

"Oh, at Google?" Tonya asked. "I thought they fired your sorry ass."

"They tried."

"I didn't kill anybody." Stu insisted.

"Nobody said you did" Alexander said, hoping to stop the conversation.

"Thanks, Curtis."

"Besides, it takes a man to do something like that." Randy teased.

"Maybe I should carve you up in a second, kid.

"Ohh, i'm so scared."

"Randy, you goon-Fuck! I'm trying to eat here." Tonya said as he sat back down.

"You guys know what I heard: I heard that one of the cops said that there was a message carved into their backs."

"What kind of message?" Billy asked as Randy leaned in.

"TO ALEXANDER, FROM MICKEY'S SISTER." He whispered as Alexander and Avery both looked at each other.

"What the Hell is that supposed to mean?" Tonya asked.

"I think I might know." Randy said. Everyone sighed.

"Damn dude, enough with all the conspiracy theories. They were fun at first, but now they're just annoying." Stu groaned. Randy was always talking about some crazy conspiricay he's heard.

"It ain't a theory." Randy argued. "Have you ever heard the name Alexander Briggs?" Everyone turned at the mention of Alexander's name.

"You mean, one half of the Dixie Devils?" Billy asked.

"The same. He is the youngest assassin in the history of the dark web. Under the training of Mickey Wilson, he started his career at the age of 7 and he's got almost 400 kills on his record and those are just the confirmed kills." Randy explained.

"I've heard of Alexander Briggs, the guy's a myth. He's a boogeyman to scare drug cartels and mob bosses." Stu argued.

"If that's true then why is he on the most wanted list of 7 different nations, including Russia."

"I mean, someone that young, killing so many people. It's not possible." Billy argued. Alexander decided to take his leave.

"I gotta go, i'll see you at home Avery. See you all later." He said as he walked off.

"See you Curtis." Stu said as Avery watched her brother leave. She was worried for him and rightfully so. If Mallory truly was at UCLA, it was only a matter of time before she struck again.
