"This is wired!" I yelled, being dragged by the back of my coat by Kitty, who was dressed up nicely.
"We were invited to this party, and we will go to this party!?" She yelled, with me groaning as we entered the elevator. "Now, top button!" She demanded, with me standing up and pressing the button, with the doors closing.
"Just what the hell is wrong with you?" I heard, with me turning to face the same detective from a few weeks ago, making me grin at her.
"I have plenty wrong with me, she knows it, I know it, even YOU know it!?" I said, pointing from Kitty, to me, then finally pointing both fingers at her, laughing at her blank expression.
"Just who are these two?" Another person asked, with us looking at the other girl in the elevator, making me grin at her as she looked like a younger version of the detective.
"Never mind them, if you touch them, they will surely get your dress dirty!" The detective said, making me gasp.
"I'm clean, arnt I?" I asked, looking myself over then looking at Kitty. "Here, let me prove it!" I said, grabbing Kitty and hugging her, laughing as she phased herself out of my hold.
"Mutants... You two are apart of the X-Men!" The kid asked, with me looking at her.
"Not me!" I said, pointing at myself with a grin. "I work for Lady Death, but yes, I used to work for the X-Men, only they weren't some organization back then." I said with a laugh as Kitty punched me on the face.
"Sorry about him, he was a lot better when I was younger." Kitty said, looking at the girl. "I'm Kitty, and this is Dakota." She introduced, with the kids eyes widening.
"He's the one who saved everyone almost five years ago, Incubus!" She said, with me giving her a bow.
"At your service, only I'm not and at Lady Deaths." I said with a small laugh.
"He died, didn't he?" She asked, with Kitty nodding her head at the question.
"He somehow came back immortal and has to do Deaths will, he also lost his mind on the way." Kitty said, with me making faces at her and getting hit again. "He cant feel anything, so he acts stupid to try to keep his sanity." Kitty said, making me laugh.
"Or am I?" I said, spinning around on one foot and pointed to the doors as they opened, with them walking out. I followed, skipping behind Kitty.
Later
As we walked around the party, Kitty pointed at the two next to the stage, with me following her. "Hello!" Kitty said, gaining their attention, with me walking towards them in a bow, one arm under my stomach and the other one extended. "Thank you for inviting us to this party, its not everyday we get to do something like this!" Kitty said, with me standing up with a grin.
"Who the hell are you two?" Another guest questioned, making me laugh as Kitty face palmed.
"They call us the great ones, the ones who solve any mystery that is under our noses. Kitty Pride, the Shadowcat of the X-Men, said to have solved over ten Thousand mystery's!" I said, pointing at Kitty, who groaned. "Then there is her sidekick who works for a higher power, Dakota Feichko, the Incubus of the X-Men and Decay of Death!?" I said, holding my arms up high, followed by a few people clapping.
"Seriously, was that necessary?" Kitty questioned, making me laugh at her as I started doing the pennywise dance for laughs and giggles.
"Well, anyways, you three can talk to the others, I'm going to go dance my socks off!" I said, where I started doing cart wheels around people, laughing as I nearly pumped into them.
Later
"You cant be serious, there's about to be two murders here?" I questioned as I was looking at Death as she stood in front of me while the party was going on. "And on top of that, one is supposed to happen a week from now?" I asked, with her nodding her head.
"I'm sure that you can solve this one, after all, everything is laid out for you." She said, making me laugh as she vanished.
"Sir, I need you to stop laughing, its creeping everyone out." A women with long black hair said as she stood behind me. I twisted my neck all the way around, getting a yelp from her. Turning my body to face her, I grinned at her.
"Who are you?" I asked, then took notice that she looked just like the wife of the man who invited us.
"She's Special Forces, hired to protect the rest of the family." The Detective said as she walked over to us, with me looking at her.
"Oh, Oh, Detective, I have something I need to tell you!" I said, with her raising an eyebrow at me. "Quick, this way!" I said, grabbing her hand and dragging her with me. As I walked, I held her hand until we left the party. "I need you to answer me this one question!" I said, with her crossing her arms.
"And that is?" She asked, making me grin.
"Where's the bathroom?" I asked, making her face palm, making me laugh as she led the way.
Later
Walking back into the room, I watched as the Detectives sister was escorted out by the same person I had met earlier. Looking around, I spotted Kitty, with me skipping over to her. Stopping behind her, I placed my head on hers and wrapped my arms around her neck. "Guess what!" I said, with her looking up at me.
"What?" She questioned, making me grin.
"Two of them, and I've already solved it." I said, confusing her.
"Two of them?" She asked, with me nodding. "What's that supposed to mean, did Death give you a job?" She asked, with me nodding my head.
"Yep, and its not far-"
"Then what are you waiting for, lets go!" She said, with the lights going out, with us looking at the stage.
"Ladies and gentleman, I would like to talk to you about the truth." The head of the family said, with us watching him standing at the mic. We watched as he stood there, but he wasn't saying anything. A few seconds later, he fell over with a knife in the back of his head. Everyone screamed, making me laugh as Kitty looked at me with wide eyes.
"You got to be kidding me!?" Kitty yelled, with us running over to the stage and examining the murder, well, she examined it, I stayed put and looked around the room, with me seeing both the daughter of the detective and the head women of the house running in.
I grinned once the Detective stood up on stage, looking around. "I need a list of everyone's names and to know where everyone was at the time of death!" She ordered, with me holding my hand up, with her looking at me with a raised eyebrow.
"Play the last played track." I said, pointing over at the DJ, with him doing that.
"Ladies and gentleman, I would like to talk to you about the truth." It said, with me grinning. "He was already dead once it played." I said, looking at the detective. "To add more to the situation, its not the guests that you need to examine, but the Special Forces." I said, confusing her. "Look around and tell me, which one is missing." I said, with her looking around, then back at me.
"I don't know what you're talking about." She said, with me wagging my finger at her.
"Then let me bring forth your sister, she knows." I said, pointing the same finger at the detectives sister, with her raising an eyebrow at me. She was lead over to us, with her looking at the body then at me. "Tell me, when you were escorted out, who went with you?" I asked, with her raising an eyebrow at me.
"It was one of the Special Forces guards." She informed, with me nodding.
"Look around, and point them out." I said, with her looking around the room, and her eyes widened. "Can't find her, can you?" I asked, with her shacking her head. "Because she was killed first!?" I said, with a lot of people gasping. "Quick, follow me everyone!?" I yelled, jumping off the stage and running out the doors.
As they followed, I came to a skidding stop and pressed the elevator button, with the doors opening to revile the same one who helped the girl out. "Tada!?" I said, with everyone gasping.
"How did you know that she was here without anyone else knowing!?" The head women yelled at me, with me getting into her face.
"The same way I knew that there would be two murders today, Lady Death told me!" I said, grabbing her chin and forcing her to look at me. "Everyone with shoes step ten feet back, everyone with high heels step five feet back once the ones with shoes stop." I said, with the men stepping back ten feet, then the girls, but I prevented her from moving. "Now, lady, did you hear the difference?" I asked, with her frowning. "Click, Click for the girls, step, step for the men. Now, you only, take a few steps back to the girls." I said, with her stepping back, with no one hearing the sounds of high heels. "Nice dress, shame I have to ruin it!" I said, grabbing the bottom of it and tearing it off, getting a scream from her, showing that she was wearing the same pants and shoes as the Special Forces, with the dress being a quick put on.
"What is the meaning of this!?" The detective yelled, stepping up to me and getting into my face. "You cant just-"
I pointed in the elevator, with her eyes widening. "Her coat is off, as well as her glasses. During no time in the ball room, did I see the other do so." I said, looking back at her sister. "Who was it that lead you back to the ball room?" I asked, her eyes glued onto the head women, shaking in fear. "Ding, Ding, Ding, we have a winner of the murder of the Special Forces member!" I said, with her getting cuffed by the other Special Forces members. "Next, the main murder!" I said, running back to the ballroom, with them following me once again.
Once there, I jumped onto the stage. "Now, we all saw him with a knife in the back of the head, and we can only presume that she dressed as the Special Forces member and killed him." Kitty said as she jumped onto the stage as well. "She did, but what was the motive?" Kitty questioned, with me clapping my hands.
"The same one she didn't want leaving this house!" I said, making a gasping noise. "She didn't love him, she was forced to marry him, so she killed him to get all of his money, a true gold digger! I said, laughing soon after.
"Just who the hell are you two!?" The women yelled, with me looking at her.
"Didn't you hear me the first time?" I asked, her eyes widening as she was dragged away. "Thank you for coming out, sorry it ended in such a drastic way, but this was just too easy for me to put together!" I said, waving at them as they started leaving, with us following them soon after.
"You don't think Death invited us, do you?" Kitty asked, with me grinning at her.
"Oh, I know she did!" I said, skipping out and leaving the ballroom.
