After two days of a frantic search, the bodies of young Jay and his mother Emra were tragically discovered, bearing the signs of a horrifying fate.
Officer: [Breathless, rushing towards Dew] Dew! They found them! Jay and Emra... it's... it's devastating!
Dew: [Eyes widening, filled with dread] Where? Tell me where they found them!
Officer: In the woods, Dew. Just a few miles from the hiking trail. It's a horrific scene... I'm so sorry you had to see this.
[Dew's heart sinks, and he quickly makes his way to the crime scene, with Officer Miller following closely behind. As they approach, the sight that unfolds before them is beyond comprehension.]
The bodies of Jay and Emra were lying, their bloods were scattered around them. Jay's body was a mangled mess, with most of his limbs missing and his flesh torn and bloody. Emra's head was nowhere to be found. Their blood had turned black, and insects were crawling all over their bodies. The stench was so strong that it was hard to breathe. The wase was secured as the team left the crime spot.
Dew: [Voice trembling, tears welling up] Oh no... Jay... my little boy...
Officer: [Voice shaking, struggling to find words] Don't look at him, Dew. His body... it's been mutilated. Bite marks all over... it's gruesome.
Dew: [Falls to his knees, overcome with grief] Emra... my love... and Jay... they... they didn't deserve this. What kind of monster could do such a thing?
Officer: [Places a hand on Dew's shoulder] Dew, we need to secure the crime scene. It's important to gather evidence and find the one responsible for this heinous act. Let's focus on justice for Emra and Jay.
[Dew takes a deep breath, wiping away his tears, and nods in agreement. They join the other officers in securing the area and initiating the investigation.]
