Chapter 4
Garu's POV
I stand as still as can be…
Another person in my life…
Dead.
No time to dwell on that thought as Melody cried into my T shirt.
I sat her down on the couch.
"What happened?" I say in a worried questioning voice.
"Well, actually I didn't see his body….or see him get killed…" Melody said finally calming down.
"So how do you know he's dead?"
"I can feel it, and plus, he didn't visit me yesterday or today!"
That was strange, I also didn't see him the other day… considering he usually comes to spar with me…
"That's not all…" She said in a whisper voice.
I snap out of my deep thought and look up at her, " What do you mean by that?"
"I mean I went to his house about 2 hours ago!"
So there was more to the story.
"I'm all ears"
"So like I said, I went to him house wondering what was up, when I got there I knocked on his door a few times before I got suspicious. Then I find this note under his door," she takes out a crumpled piece of paper from her pocket and hands it to me.
"Soon after that it got all foggy, which I thought was out of the norm" she said finishing her story.
I look down at the piece of paper she gave me.
It read one simple word written in curvy hand writing.
Demetri
Who the hell is Demetri?
"So what are we going to do?" She asks, big shiny brown eyes starring at me.
For some reason at that moment, she kinda reminded me of Pucca…
"Uh, well, first we should call the twins…"
"Why?" She asks eyes slanting.
I knew how much she hated Darciera. But how she thought of Valilova as a sister herself.
I sigh, " Because they might be able to help us find Jet with there powers and… I find this day so familiar," I say my voice trailing off…
It looked so much like that faithful day in December….
Minus the snow on the ground…
Maybe we could find who really killed Pucca and get my name cleared.
But life in Sooga would never be the same without her.
So I guess it wouldn't make a difference anyway…
I get out my cell phone and put it on speed dial.
"Hello?"said a sweet melancholy voice at the other end of the line.
"Hey Valilova, it's Garu I need your help,"
