(Tw:Mention of Murder .)

-----

Ellis woke up to voices talking and blurry faces looking over at her , till her vision cleared up. she screamed loudly and scooted back away showing her vampire wings and spreading them defensively "DUSTIN! HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET IN MY HOUSE AND ROOM!" "Jeez calm down, your mom just let me in." He said "Also this is max" He said pointing to the redhead girl next to him , she calmed down and lowered her wings as they folded and went away. She got up out of bed and threw a pillow at him "GET OUT!" She yelled angrily "Fine fine!" He said grabbing max and getting out her room, letting her change. After a few minutes she was out and was fully dressed nicely. "Alright lets go" she groaned walking away as the 2 followed her "You kids be safe! There's was a murder" Ellis's mom said as the kids left "We'll be safe Ms Quinn!" Dustin yelled as he closed the door . "Your not getting in my car , were biking." Ellis said "Wh-Fine." He said grabbing a bike in her driveway and getting on , Max and Ellis got on a bike as well and starting biking to Family Video.

"Hey Steve" "You see this?" Steve asked but got cut off by Dustin "How many phones do you have?" Dustin asked "Someone was murdered." "How many phones do you have?" Dustin asked again "Two why?" Steve replied looking at Robin than back at Dustin "Technically Three if you count Keith's "Robin added "Three works " Replied Max "What are you doing?" Steve asked as Dustin slid his backpack over the counter "My pile!" Robin yelled than Dustin slid over the counter "No,no,no My tapes Dude." Steve shouted as Max and Ellis went the normal way in "What are you doing man!" Steve asked Dustin walking over to him "Setting up Base of Operation's here" "Base of operation's?" Steve asked as Dustin started typing into the computer "Get off of that" Steve said "No I need it!" Dustin replied "For what?" "Eddie's Friends Phone Numbers." Dustin replied "Don't look at me, I just got dragged along here " Ellis said throwing her hands up but purposely smacking Dustin "Ow!" "Oh Eddie your new best friend who you think is cooler cause he plays a nerdy game" Steve said making Dustin roll his eyes "Yes. I never said that?" Dustin responded "Seriously, you guys, maybe on a monday you can play , but it's a Saturday. Our busiest day! "Robin said putting down back a sign on the counter "Robin I empathize, but this cannot wait till a monday" "Oh my god." Steve groaned "What? Calling Eddie's friends is a emergency?" "Correct!" Dustin replied "Want me to strangle him or you want to?" Steve asked Robin quietly "We can take turns" Ellis just stood by watching Dustin on the computer. "Can you fill them in while I do this?" Dustin asked Max "Fill us in on what" Ellis, Steve , And Robin asked.

"Yeah hey Glenn, when's the last time you've seen or talked to Eddie" Ellis asked carrying the telephone around "Yeah Alright sorry for bothering you." She said as she than crossed off a number than dialed the other "Yeah sorry for bothering you but whens the last time you talked to Eddie Munson?" Ellis asked again "Reefer Rick? Does this Reefer Rick have a last name?" Max asked "No its some kind ..." "alright Doctor Zhivago" Steve said "Double VHS, it's long but that's because its filled with action and romance , and a little suspense" Steve said "So, my boyfriend won't totally puke when I bring it home?" "Oh you....your boyfriend?" Steve asked the woman "Dude I can literally see Steve's heart break when he finds out that girl has a boyfriend" Ellis pointed out leaning towards Robin "Yeah.. This isn't the first time he's failed miserably to win over a woman." She replied "Hey guys I might have a lead." Max said getting everyone's attention "Seriously ?" "yeah" Max continued "Apparently Eddie gets his drugs from some guy named Reefer rick, and sometimes Eddie crashes there" Max said "See that sounds promising " Robin said "Where does Reefer rick live?" Dustin asked "See, that's the thing. No one knows, he's more of a...legend that someone than people actually know. " "What about a last name?" Dustin asked "I don't know that either" Max replied "Bet the cops know a last name" Steve Said "What?" "Cops" "I mean, listen, if this Reefer rick is a drug dealer. " "I guarantee you, he's been busted at some point. Means he's in the system" "The cops?" Dustin asked "Really, Steve that's your suggestion?" "I think they should be filled on what we know, what's going on" "True." Ellis agreed "You two think Eddie's guilty don't you" "Hold on Dustbin I don't think guilty till Proven." Ellis replied "Same here" Steve chimed in "I just , don't think we can rule it out." Steve said clapping than rubbing his hands together "Literally what were trying to do here Hair" Ellis responded "And maybe we'd have a little bit more luck , if you spent less time trying to find a girlfriend and more time trying to find Eddie." Ellis chuckled in the back "Well somebody has to attend to the customer's " "Especially if their babe's, right?" Robin chimed in "Hey, not fair okay?" Steve said pointing at her "I attend to all the customers equally babes and non-babes alike" "Mhmm." Ellis hummed in response "We got a big selection here, It can be super overwhelming for people." "Yeah it can be." Robin replied before sitting down and typing into the computer "What are you doing?" Ellis asked "Maybe we don't need a last name" "Twelve rick's." "That's a lot of rick's " Max added "So, let's narrow it down." Robin responded selecting the first option "Rick alderman's latest rentals are Annie and Dumbo" "Chances our drug dealer has a family?" "Not likely" Max replied to Robin "Alright , Rick Conroy, Sixteen Candles , Teen Wolves , Romancing the stone. " "Nah" "Okay Rick Joiner . Mask, Footlose , and Grease." "Nah" Everybody said at the same time "Rick Kombrough . The Blue lagoon and Splash " "Definitely not." Everyone said "Rick Lipton. Fast Times at Ridgemont High . Cheech & Chong's Next Movie. Cheech & Chong's Up in Smoke." Dustin Chuckled "Bingo"Robin said "Spelled like tea, 2121 Holland Road" "That's out by Lovers Lake." "In the middle of nowhere." Ellis added "Its the perfect place to hide." Robin chimed in
