MIND GAME'S
There was a date scratched on Janette's arm, it was a signature but not any signature. It was the signature of the serial killer named "grim", he was the deadliest serial killer in the late 2000's, Nyla's parents were a victim of him, Nyla indeed had a rough past but seeing the same signature again terrified her more. The grim was charged with a death sentence for killing 19 people living in the same town including Nyla's parent's. She was just a kid when her parents were murdered, she was broken and wanted justice for her parent's death. Which she did get but after this tragedy, she had made up her mind to study and catch criminals like these, Nyla was driven by the immense guilt of not being able to save her own parents, that she wanted to save every other innocent life and serve justice for the people who had been killed. There was no time to waste, this psychopath will strike again and it could be now or soon.
she noticed that Janette's arms seemed to have something written on them, Nyla looked at it confused when she realized what was written, it was a date, but not just any date, it was the date of when Stephen was murdered. Did that mean Stephen's body might have a date scratched on? if so it would be the date of the next killing, this would help Nyla and the team to get close to this psycho. Nyla immediately called the pathologist asking if she could examine the body, perhaps there was a date scratched on his body as well. Laure said that she could, Nyla had to be qiuck cause someone's life may depend on it. She reached there in a hurry, Laure showed her the body, she looked at its arms and any possible place where the date could be scratched. It was odd, Nyla was confused at what she saw, there wasn't a date.
Laure saw something was troubling her, he asked what was wrong and if she was looking for something, Nyla showed him a picture of Janette's arm which had the date scratched on. She said that it was a signature, but there isn't one on Stephen's body. "Why is it so important?" He asked curiously, Nyla replied saying that it could help them get an idea of when the next killing could be. "Ah I see that must be so important, Have u checked everywhere?" Laure asked questioning Nyla, "Yes I have but there's no date" she said stressed. "Oh right! I saw something odd on the roof of his mouth, I was meaning to show it to you when you came" Laure said having no idea what it was. He showed it to Nyla, and she watched In horror, as she saw something scratched on the roof of his mouth, it wasn't clear to look at but she still tried to figure it out, It was indeed a date. Nyla had figured it out relieved that she did, she wrote it down puzzled to see what her eyes saw, the date of the next killing was. Today."Why do you try so hard to escape, when you already know what will happen"
"Isn't in tiring mm?"
