Wylie remembered the time before Juline was mayor quite clearly. Alden barely was ever seen in the office, spent most of his time in the bar. There had been a gang like these so-called Periculos. They really didn't have a name but they had been like this. Killing people with almost no reason or pattern. He thought that the police had caught all of the killers. They had become a landmark town, just not in the way that they wanted. The city of killings they called them.

Wylie thought that that time was over, that Juline had eradicated anything related to the killings. She built a new town hall, police station, and prison. The people of Britshire, England were finally safe and happy. There was a time of peace.

That time was over.

The doorbell rang out through the house.

"I'll get it!" yelled Biana. Wylie went to the railing overlooking the front entrance to see who it was. Linh, also Sophie and Dex and Keefe but he really didn't see them. She looked really pretty.

"Hey, guys what are you doing here?" Biana asked. Fitz came to stand next to Wylie by the railing.

"We were really bored and decided that maybe we could try investigating the murders," said Sophie.

"Like old times," Fitz said. It was true. When they were ten-ish they had a club where they solved mysteries. They had never really solved anything, only cases of where did Della hide the remote so they would go outside and play.

"Why would we do that?" asked Wylie.

"Because it's been almost three days since Stina died and all of you have been sulking away when we could be solving this," reasoned Sophie.

"I don't know Sophie, I think that it's best if we stay inside and out of the way, plus when we were kids we solved tiny cases. This is the complete opposite of a tiny case," said Fitz.

"Oh come on guys, we need a little adventure in our lives. I already convinced Linh, Dex, and Keefe, we don't need you to help us,"

"Fine, but only if we are very careful."

"Agreed."

"And if we turn back and call the police at the first sign of danger."

"Fine," Sophie agreed.

Fifteen minutes later they were all piled into Fitz's car. Fitz at the wheel- at his insistence. They were headed to the gas station where Stina had been found and Sophie was reciting what they knew already.

"So we know that Stina was poisoned, the police confirmed that in the newspaper that morning. We know that the poison was administered via digestion. Whether or not that means that someone gave her something in the gas station or that she had eaten something and the symptoms just started taking effect we don't know."

"We also know that it was probably the so-called Periculos- which by the way just means danger in Latin- killed her," added Dex.

"Right, so what do we start with," asked Biana.

"I say we start with checking to see if there are any other points of entry that Stina' killer could have come in from." Fitz pulled out an old notebook from the driver side door pocket. Everyone groaned.

"Really Fitz?" asked Wylie. "The notebook?"

"I thought that someone had burned that," said Biana.

"Nope, it's been sitting in my desk for seven years just waiting to be used again."

They had checked every inch of the gas station. But there were no other ways that anyone could have gotten in from.

"I think that we are getting at this from the wrong angle," said Wylie. "Why are we trying to find a single member of the Periculos when we could be trying to find out where they are hiding."

"You want us to try to find the hideout for the secret gang of murderers."

"Yes."

"That is the most idiotic thing I have ever heard, let's do it," said Sophie. They all piled into the car and we driving along the highway when Keefe said something that they hadn't really thought of.

"So where are we going? We don't know where they are hiding out. The man on the television said that they were hiding in plain sight. Which by the way to anyone who might be wondering, is freaking everywhere."

"That's a good point Keefe, way to ruin the moment," said Dex.

"We know that Alden Vacker is probably part of the Periculos," suggested Wylie, "That's a start."

"I think we should go back to my place and plan out our next attack, we may not have accomplished anything today but we have started something, the gang is back!"

"Yeah!" Everyone shouted. Fitz cranked up the radio and they all sang out of key to the music that has been playing since forever.

That night, when they were all lying on the floor of Dex's living room, in their pajamas and sleeping peacefully. Juline came in, it was probably around two in the morning, she was on the phone and didn't seem to notice that Wylie was up.

"What?" she exclaimed. "That's three in three days, I can't deal with this right now, I just got home and can't deal with any more murders. I call you back in the morning Carl but you call Marella and Valin's parents in the morning and tell them the news. I'll be sure to drop by their house tomorrow to offer my condolences."

So they struck again.

(A:/N) Allison: So this was a kinda slow chapter, but the story will pick up soon. I promise.

Bye for now.
