Chapter 2: The Interrogation
The mansion was big and grand, it's garden was massive and had a water fountain biut it was damaged and spurted water everywhere. Gordon knocked on the door quietly, but Skulduggery pushed him aside and kicked the door open. A young man with dark hair with a strand of purple hair walked outside, he was wearing a black suit with a crisp white shirt and a purple tie.
"Hi, are you Grimly Reaper by any chance?"
"Do I own you something?" Grimly asked
"Well, I don't think so."
"Then welcome! I am in fact Grimly Reaper."
Skulduggery went inside and sat on the extremely uncomfortable chair while Gordon shared a wooden stool with Grimly, having no place to sit.
"Your hair looks absoloute rubbish, who's your hairdressser? A blind unicorn?!" Gordon taunted, Grimly frowned and Gordon laughed uncontrollably at his shock. Grimly sighed and said, "So, why are you here?"
"We're interrogating you as you murdered Syniterous Mecury!"
"What? Never met the guy!"
"Well, care to explain"
"One time, I saw him and we actually became friends! How can I, out of all people, murder this guy!"
"We were informed that you were sent by a high paying man!"
"Of course..."
"Of course what!"
"Thurid Guild sent you, didn't he?"
"Well, yeah!
"He has a strong hatred for me and all my friends!"
Gordon fell on the floor and cursed loudly. Grimly offered to help them and Skulduggery accepted. They had just earned another teammate on their 'team'!
