Chapter 14(You might have to find a vid on YT to show what happened. I recommend the user Kevin R Phipps)

A good month passes since what happened to Eva and Jason and soon enough it was forgotten. No weird cases, no broken contracts, no anything, until Kuri put on the news. 'Who's Robin Hendrich?' asked Kuri.

Count D said, "He used to be the crown prince in a SyFy movie more then 10 years. He was also a frequent costumer here for lizards and reptiles. You remember he was here not too long ago."

Kuri said, 'You have a lot of customers here D. Can't keep track of them all.'

Soon enough Leon came in. "You always show up for tea Dectective." He said.

Leon said, "Cause you love it so much I don't doubt you bathe in it. How's business?"

Kuri said, 'Same as usual. What brings you here?'

Leon said, "Well we went to Robin's house and found him dead."

Count D said, "Yes we heard it on the news. I just told Kuri that he was very fond of lizards."

Leon said, "Well maybe you can tell what this is. Found it by the victom." He showed him a photo of a dead albino lizard.

Kuri saw it. 'Now I remember.' She said.

Count D was in distress. "It can't be dead, it's very rare the last of it's kind."

Leon said, "I'm guessing the lizard was poison."

Count D said, "We will never sell such things all animals are harmless."

Leon groans. "Great." He sat down. Kuri got some tea.

Count D said, "If you ask me he was killed by a spirit."

Leon said, "You might have to explain that one D."

Count D said, "He had his breakthrough in that SyFy movie though everything after that he wasn't so luck. It even showed that he wasn't even a good actor. In a way his character was took great for him to the point he lived his character like Heath Ledger as Joker, though how he died from the pills are questionable. But for Robin he lived his character and died from it."

Leon doesn't believe it. "I can believe what happened to Ledger on how he died but not Robin. There were no drugs in his system so overdose is out. When did you see him last?"

Count D said, "Me and Kuri saw him about a month ago."

*Flashback* Count D and Kuri were tending the shop as usual when Robin came in. Count D said, "Well if it isn't the crown prince."

Robin answered, "Please Count I wish you didn't call me that."

"I'm sorry I mean no offence. Do you want the usual food for your friends?"

Robin started to look around the shop around the lizard section. "No I want a new friend. Something rare and unusual."

Count D said, "But if I'm corrected you promise her highness you won't get more pets."

Robin replied, "Yeah well she's gone. She said I rather marred my snakes and lizards. She's right now I can have them out of the cages and have them freely in the living room and bedroom."

Count D said, "As you wish." Kuri noticed something sparkled in Robin's eye. She went to him and tugged his sleeve. Robin looked at her. "Yes." She mentions him to follow her. "Should I Count?" he asked.

He replied, "Yes. I believe she has the perfect pet for you. Please follow her."

They went to the back room again and the 2 men followed her to the back where a beautiful woman with a blindfold over her eyes was waiting. Robin saw the woman. "Now your assistant is crazy. My wife just left me and I'm in no mood for dating."

Count D said, "Your highness please let her show you who this woman is."

Kuri then lifted up part of her dress to reveal her lizard lower part. "What?" Robin was in awe.

"This woman is a lizard. Rare as you wanted and albino as you wanted." Kuri held out the woman's hand. "Go ahead and touch her." He said.

Robin did that and felt the usual coldness a reptile would have. "This can't be real. I must be dreaming." Robin then looked at the woman's face. "Why can't she see me? Please I want to see her eyes."

Count D said, "No I can't do that. She must be blindfolded."

Robin asked, "Why does she have an injury?"

Count D said, "No but more of a blessing and a curse."

Robin said, "She's poisonous."

Count D looked at him. "No but something more in legend of old. There was a tale in Rome that was once forgotten and replaced. What happened was an army raided a king's palace and the solders found no one but a woman. When they let down their guard the women revealed her eyes and all turned to stone. This very lizard was breed to have this curse. That's why my assistance named her Medusa." Robin couldn't believe what he heard. *End Flashback*

Leon was enraged. "You got to be fucking kidding me!" He stood up. "I know I saw weird things here but I know that can't be true. He has to be loosing his mind to see such a thing."

Kuri was getting up set. 'Sit down before I glue your butt there.'

Count D said, "Believe it or not he said the same thing though not word for word." He looked at Leon. "But if you don't believe me then go ahead and waste more time finding out another way and make you more frustrated."

Leon groans and gave up. "Alright so he bought the lizard woman."

Count D said, "Yes and I think she was in love with him.

*Flashback* The 2 held each other as Count D read the terms. "1. No one must see her. 2. She must bee feed only fruit and veggies. And 3. Never look into her eyes. If any of these terms are breached we won't be held responsible to the consequences." The 2 left the shop after Robin signed it.

Kuri said, 'I hope that this one last.'

Count D said, "I hope the same." *End Flashback*

Leon asked, "Then what do you think happened?"

Count said, "This might be a hunch but I believe that he grew comfortable with Medusa and when he was in a tight corner he tried to make sure his pets including her was protected. But when his chance was stolen away he had no way. He looked in her eyes and died."

Leon said, "Now I know you're crazy. But what happened to Medusa?"

Kuri said, 'She fell in love with him and felt shame since the first time she actually looked at him he dies. She must of looked at her eyes herself and what they both saw was a sweet darkness called despair. She died to follow him. Just as the question of 'What would happened if Medusa fell in love?''

Soon it was time for the funeral. A group of people including Leon, Kuri and Count D. Count D brought over Medusa's ashes.

Count D said, "Well Robin is finally free."

Leon said, "Yeah but nothing good happened now he's dead."

Count D said, "Look more closely detective." Then they heard mutters of how he was a genius, that he was too young to die, that he was going to do a comeback., and the show business lost someone great. "You see. He died young before he grew old. If he waited more time he would've been forgotten. Though he looked into despair, he left behind a legend just like Heath Ledger as Joker. A star is born." He gave the small jar of Medusa and gave it to Kuri.

Kuri walked to the coffin and before he was laid in the ground, she lifted up the lid just a bit and put the small jar in his hands. '2 lovers together forever. If only they had a happy ending like me and D.'
