It was three months later, and the whole town was on lockdown. Every week more and more people turned up dead, and no one could catch their murderer. The superheros knew it could definitely be Camron, and because of that they were making sure Ameba stayed at HQ, because he would surely be a target. Timelink was getting ready to go home, curfew was 8 and anyone found out after then was considered a suspect and taken in for questioning. "Please be careful.." Ameba said he was worried. He was kinda shell-shocked from what happened, he searched for Camron whenever he could, and he hoped with all his heart that his adoptive son wasn't the one behind the murders. "I'll be fine, and tomorrow is my turn to stay here with you." they were taking turns staying at HQ with him, that way if Camron did find him he had backup. "Ok, see you tomorrow" Ameba watched her and Asher leave, a sinking feeling in his gut that this was the last time he'd see her. Clammy went to go make a coffee, and Ameba bit back the urge to call them back and beg them to stay. I'm just being paranoid. Besides, no one would target the superheroes specifically, except if it was a villain.. Or Camron..but it's not Camron. It can't be.


No one was prepared for what they found when they found her body. She'd been missing for two days by the time they found her. Luna was placed facedown in ameba's livingroom, when they rolled her over they saw how she'd be murdered, and it was terrible. Her murderer had stabbed her in the neck and drug their knife down her abdomen, cutting her open like a chicken for a roast and then had drug her here, to leave her in the place that Ameba called home. It was personal now. The murderer had killed one of his friends. And now he knew for sure. It was Camron. There was a crash from the kitchen, Ameba shot up, Asher looked up from Luna's body and Clammy looked up as well. "He's here.." Ameba murmured, his heart racing in his chest. He was going to die today. He knew it. He wondered if he should go in the kitchen, when Camron came through the doorway. "I figured you'd come back eventually..." his eyes were cold and hard, the love that'd been there before gone. "Camron.. H-how could you do this?? I know your not.." "not what? A good person? Your son? She deserved it anyway,she was looking for me, wanted to turn me in.." Ameba shuttered, he could imagine that all too clearly. Asher made an angry grief sound and tried to attack Camron. Camron pulled out a gun quicker than a flash and shot Asher, his bullet went into ashers head and just like that he'd committed another murder. Ameba ran over to Asher. "No!" he exclaimed, he whipped around to stare at Camron. "Stop! P-Please!" Camron was approaching Clammy, the gun cocked and ready. He stopped for a moment, staring into Ameba's eyes coldly. "I hope your happy father" he dropped the gun and ran off.
