Judith sat in her car, staring ahead into nothing as she processed what just happened.

They left the house and walked back to her car.
As she got into the driver seat, she looked at Toby who was about to get in too once she laid her haves in front of him, stopping him.
"I THINK NOT! Oh hell no- take all of that off," she pointed at the messy blood spots covering him, as well as the blood on his hatches.

"Y-you se-serious?-"
"Yes." She reached into one of the bags in the backseat and grabbed extra baby wipes she kept there. "Here." She handed them to him.

The man huffed but went with it.

Judith leaned back in her seat and thought about what just happened. She told herself not to linger on it, just like how always does.

She sighed deeply before taking her phone out and checking the time, 10:44 p.m. She looked back at the man who was done, he didn't do a good job but it looked less worse.

Toby finally got in and closed his door, Judith reached out to take the baby wipes box back when he moved out of her reach.
"I t-think I'll k-keep these. T-they're nice." He said. Judith raised a brow.

"Nah Uh, I think you're not! Get your own-"

"Nope." The man moved them even further as she tried to snatch them out of his hand.

"Agh- uff. Fine, keep 'em." She rolled her eyes and sat back. "I'm sure you're more messier than I am." She murmured and looked back at her phone. "Didn't Brian say to call him.." she said, taking a glance at the man.

"Yeah." The man confirmed as he put his hatches away.

Judith dialed the only number she had on her phone then started her car, she decided to drive away instead of sticking too long around what is now the crime scene. The number answered almost immediately.

"I see that you're done."
"Yeah we got the tape.." she confirmed.
"Good."
"So what now? Do we go back to the cabin or?"
"No, we already got the tape from the second house. One house left, head to that address we are going to see you there," he paused for a minute. "it's going to be a party." He continued.
"....see you there I guess." Judith said and he hung up.

Judith checked the address on the piece of paper and then started driving there.

This one was gonna take some time, she thought. Since the address was all the way on the other side of the town, she remembered how time went by fast when they drove to the first house as they talked, so she began making small talk.

"So.....question for a question?" She said quietly.
The man sitting next to her tapping his fingers on his knees took a glance at her.
"S-sure. Y-your turn."

Judith came back to the question she was gonna ask him back at the house.
"Say, what about you? How long have you been in....this." She asked.

Toby glanced at her.
He took a moment to answer, was he hesitant?
Or just thinking about it? She wondered.

"I-it's b-been 6 y-years" he finally answered.

"6 years?!-" Her lips parted for a second as her eyes fell on him for a minute before turning back to the road. "Wait, how old are you anyway?"
