A Little Obsession

CHAPTER 17 : THE BLACK SCARF.

Officer Ryan's POV :

I reached at train station as per our plan and was trying to find Luther and the girl who might be Elsa or not I don't know. I sat on a bench and started observing and looking the crowd to see if I could find anything.

After half an hour my eyes caught a girl covering her face with a black scarf. I stood up and started following her and then she looked back to see if I was following her and our eyes met. Her eyes were black but there was no iris and only a big pupil which covered all her eyes. It looked like she was devil or something but still I had to follow her so I broke the eye contact and she started walking again. I maintained more distance and followed her to the station's exit and then she entered the forest and I was confused and deep down I was scared too after I saw her eyes but I had no other way so I entered the forest too.

After following her for 15 minutes, I realized I came too deep in the forest and she was going deeper and deeper. Suddenly my pen vibrated and I stopped.

'If it will vibrate, it'll be the signal from me and you should get the fuck out of there.' I remembered what Detective said so I took a step back while my eyes were on that girl and she stopped.

"You can't step back now." She said without turning back and that gave me chills but I didn't answer her.

"I know you were following me all the time, even before tha eye contact." She said.

"How?" I asked.

"So what you and your detective think? That all the evidence are coming out by itself?" She asked and started laughing.

"I knew about your trap." I said with some confidence and she chuckled.

"Throwing the paper doesn't made it seems a mistake." I said.

"What about that recording?" She asked and laughed.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"You think call recording was a mistake?" She asked and her question proved that we entered her trap which was not what we thought it was. It was a bigger trap.

"I started planning all this a month ago." She said and I was scared for my life but one thing which was making me relax was the camera that was recording her confession about the crime done by her and the detective has the direct access of it so she might be watching it live.

"Because I wanted something that Heather had and I knew I won't be living peacefully after the murder as people like you always want to know the truth about a person dying. So I made the whole mess of killing two people and kidnapping other two who will get killed soon but I have to kill everyone linked in this case so that includes you and your detective too." She confessed and I was happy to know some of the details that had passed to the detective too.

"Oh! I forgot to inform you something." She said and I was just smiling and looking down at my camera because she will give us more information.

"Your camera stopped when you entered the forest so the detective is panicking right now and giving you signals continously but your pen is in my control so-" She said and made an awwww sound. I was shocked to hear her words and looked up to see her but she was not there. I started panicking and looking around the forest but she was nowhere.

"You scaring me. hah." I said with all the calm I left with and a laughter came.

"You think?" She said within her laugh.

"Why you killed Heather?" I asked.

"I already told you." She said.

"What you wanted from her?" I asked.

"Let's play a guessing game, guess what I wanted." She said.

"I don't-" I was about to answer but she cut me off.

"Wait wait wait. We should have some rules c'mon." She said in an excited tone.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"If you will not able to guess then I'll give you a shot" She said.

"What shot?" I asked her in confusion.

"A fuckin gunshot." She replied and I shook my head and started running backwards. I ran for like a minute and then felt a sharp main in my left knee which made me fell. I saw a bullet inside my left knee.

"Cheers for getting the first shot." She said and started laughing.

"YOU'RE CRAZY." I shouted.

"I know officer." She said.

"Why are you hiding yourself? You are gonna kill me anyway, I just wanted to see who is behind all this." I said.

"You wanna die this early?" She asked.

"You are not sparing me." I said.

"You're kinda smart." She said and I heard footsteps behind me so I turned around to see her but her face was covered with black scarf and she was wearing that black heels with snowflake hook - our first and only proof. Her one eye was still black like before but the other eye.

"So? You need to see me?" She asked and I could see she was hiding something in her right hand which was behind her back. I planned to attack her when I could reach her so I had to make her come little closer.

"I can tell who you are seeing your eyes and that strand of your hair that you forgot to pin." I said and she laughed and pulled out a gun which she was hiding before.

"Any last wish?" She said and came closer to me and put the gunpoint on my head and all I did was took a deep breath.

"YOU ARE UNDER ARREST. PUT YOUR GUN DOWN NOW OR I'LL SHOOT YOU." A voice came from other side and we both looked in that direction to see detective Lynne was standing there with the gun. All officers came running towards us and I grabbed the gun from her hands incase anything she wanted to try. I saw the shock in her eyes and then I pulled her black scarf to see her face and turned her around to detective so she could see the murderer who stole our sleep and peace.

"You're under arrest for two murders Ms. Elsa Gray" Detective Lynne said and I already knew it was Elsa when I saw that blue eyes with a strand of blonde hair. It was just my one lucky day or I would've died.
