As i was holding Mindy's hand, I kept overthinking over any possibility on how Ghost face knew our secret transportation & where we were at the exact time.

I realized.

'Shit! Mindy you were 𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓' I say.

The paramedics had secured her up and were preparing the ambulance for her.

'It all adds up, I mean from Ghost face knowing where we were. Our kitchen knifes missing from someone inside the apartment. Someone who was always there 𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 right where we were. Our 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 suspect...'

'He told me to stay here with you & took off running towards 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌.'

'𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧.'

'Y/n 𝐆𝐎!' Mindy exclaimed. '𝐆𝐎 𝐒𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌!'

'𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐤𝐚.' she breathed out, before the paramedics took her in the ambulance.

I quickly took off running to the location, I sped ignoring the wincing pain i was in physically & mentally. It was Ethan.

𝐈 𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭.

I made my way to the Alley 'Fuck!' I forgot there was only one way in & one way out.

I quickly try to find a way into the building without setting off any alarms, or any attraction to myself.

'Shit, C'mon Y/n think' I whispered.

I looked up and saw a ladder leading up to a window. 'Ah, here goes nothing.'

I climbed up the ladder, hoping the window would crack open & not be fully sealed. I made my way up and slightly try to push the window. It cracked opened slowly.

It worked.

I climbed my way fully into the building, trying not to make a sound and quickly took cover. I was on the second floor of the theater behind some old furniture. I heard sobbing & familiar arguing; Tara, Sam & Kirby.

'Stay the fuck back!' Sam yelled.

'We know it's you Kirby!' Tara argued back.

𝐊𝐢𝐫𝐛𝐲? 𝐆𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞?

'W-what?' Kirby questioned. 'One of them knocked me out!' She argued.

Kirby held her gun straight ahead behind Tara & Sam. 'Kirby, Stop!' Officer bailey had yelled. 'Get away from the girls!' He pointed his gun at Kirby.

'What are you doing?'

'Did you kill Quinn? Did you kill my daughter?!' Bailey yelled.

'Jesus Christ!' Kirby said shaking turning to the duo. 'Whatever he's been saying to you, don't listen to him! He's probably the killer!'
