Sundeen

Chapter 36 - Pinpoint

6:21 PM

An hour after the confirmation of Ms. Duncan's murder. The body count had gone higher. Unbeknownst to the cops, only one of them saw a pattern in the killings, just like what Yoshi said.

Lillias was the one one who realized that there was a pattern. All the killings were happening in the Southern part of Sundeen. Lillias got her car and drove skimmed through the Southern neighborhood.

A few minutes later, Logan was in his room hiding in the closet shaking. He was sure his dad was the killer. But he didn't know how to tell people. He was too scared he would get killed, he was talking to himself.

LOGAN: They can't beat him— they can't! He's been killing people since he was seventeen, and he only got caught once!

Suddenly, someone knocked on Logan's door. He was shaking, not saying a word. As if he was in the middle of a school shooting.

RILEY: Logan, are you in there?

It was Riley who was knocking on the door.

RILEY: Logan, open the door. I heard you.

Logan had crazy eyes. He wanted to kill.

LOGAN: I've been preparing for this moment. Riley Richardson! I'll Kill You!

Logan grabbed a knofe from the nearest corner to him, ran out of the closet, opened the door, and charged at his dad. Riley yanked the knife away.

RILEY: ....

Logan was heavy panting.

RILEY: First of all, you didn't even hold it right. Your grip was terrible.

LOGAN: Tcnnh.

RILEY: Secondly, why would you even dare to attack your father. You came from me!

LOGAN: I know you're the killer! I'll Stop You!

Riley laughed.

RILEY: I am the Killer, so what.

Logan paused, right there and then he knew he was basically in a death game.

LOGAN: I—

Riley tries to grab Logan. Logan runs past Riley rand runs through the hall to get to the attic. The attic had a small opening. Only Logan could get in there. Riley didn't even get to touch him.

There was dust flying everywhere and boxes crates filled the room. In a corner of the attic. There was a telephone. Conveniently, it still worked. Logan called Makoto. After a few seconds, Makoto responded.

LOGAN: Makoto is this you...??

MAKOTO: ... How did you get my number?

LOGAN: I go to the library alot. Anyways, my dad is coming to kill me! I'm in the attic and he can't get in!

MAKOTO: Call 911! Never mind, I'll call it.

Makoto ran to Yoshi's room, opened his computer, went on his email. Looked at Lillias' email, and called from his own.

Lillias answered it.

MAKOTO: Lillias it's me Makoto! I know where the Killer is!

LILLIAS: ..... Where?!

Makoto told Lillias the address, over and over so she would it precise. Lillias called back up. Some cops answered. Officer Mike was resting the recovery room in the Town Center. He slowly got up from his bed.

MIKE: Lemme go.

NURSE: Sir, you can't! You've still yet to heal.

MIKE: You expect me to rest here while the murderer of my Captain is still out here?

Mike started coughing. An officer assured him to rest. Mike laid down back.

Officers regrouped with Lillias at the Town Center. Minutes later, they set out and found the Killer's address. It was a blue house a street down from Ms. Duncan's.

The cops pulled up. Lillias got out, and walked up to the door. She knocked on it.

LILLIAS: Riley Richardson! If you do not come out in 60 seconds, we will raid your house!

Riley heard Lillias.

RILEY: She sounds familiar.

45 seconds went by. Riley had still not come out. Lillias started counting from 10.

LILLIAS: 10.....9......8.....7.....6.....5....

Suspense was building. Cops walked up to the doors with shields.

LILLIAS: 4.....3.....2....1...!
