DoomPet

Chapter 76

They debated for a few moments if they should walk inside or move to a different country for a few years and wait for Samuel to relax. Alas, they decided to do the right thing and walked inside looking like two guilty idiots, giving Samuel puppy dogs eyes and the whole shebang, you know the drill.

Elena was there as she had been expecting to hook up their new dishwasher, but now she had her tools on the floor, staring at the two men. "Please tell me this isn't what it looks like."

The Slayer stepped forwards, closing the door behind the demon, "I mean to me it doesn't really look that bad. Do you agree?"

The marauder nodded, "Yeah pretty normal."

Samuel just let out a noise of unholy rage. He was so angry he couldn't even process it. His hands covered his face as he hissed before he erupted in a shouting fit and nearly punched a hole right through the wall, "YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!"

The Slayer gave an exaggerated shrug, "We aren't gonna get caught! We-" He paused... they had threatened to kill a police officer and forced him to delete security camera footage and put his fingerprints all over the bags... oh and threatened to drug him...

Samuel glared at him, pulling his fist out of the wall in a mechanical, terrifying way, "What did you do?"

"Well not anything bad." Crüe assured both him and Elena, nodding his head as if that was convincing anyone.

"The cop ended up agreeing with us that we should take the photos! He gave them to us willingly!" The Slayer stretched the truth a wee little bit.

Samuel groaned, "Did he actually?"

"Yes." Crüe lied through his teeth.

Elena finally spoke up, "You have to return these you realize and you're damn lucky the cops let you take these."

The Slayer nodded and walked over, picking up the photos and putting them back in their baggies. "I can walk back down and return them, that's fine." He decided to not tell Samuel about the photo that actually found, "Too bad we couldn't find the photo in here."

Samuel bit back a rude remark, "You can continue your own investigation without using police evidence."

Crüe and the Slayer rushed the photos back down to the police station, tossing them up into the open window before rushing back home. The commander peeked out and gave them the bird. The Slayer returned the gesture twice fold and Crüe dragged him away.

Elena had finished installing their dishwasher. They were all sitting down at the kitchen table, glaring at one another.

Samuel turned to the side, pointing a rather accusing rubber finger at Crüe, "What's that?"

"Nothing!" The demon wasn't even sure what the robot was talking about until he saw the photo was ever so slightly sticking out of his pocket. Before he could tuck it back in, Samuel snatched it.

The Slayer stood up, ready to defend Crüe and Elena stood up ready to beat the shit out of the Slayer if he tried to attack Samuel. Daisy let out a low growl from the corner of the room, sounding like some kind of satanic motor trying to start up.

"Oh you actually did find something..." Samuel examined the photo. He was annoyed as any scientist would be that their hypothesis was off. Crüe actually had something to his raving, maniac-like dreams. "Who is this guy?"

"I don't know. I was told I was the only marauder to survive." Crüe looked nervous, "I swear I've never killed a human." He turned his head around the table but he intended it towards the Slayer.

The Slayer and Elena slowly sunk back down in their seats, relaxing. She examined the photo and nodded along as the Slayer and Crüe explained. Samuel wasn't convinced that Crüe wasn't crazy, but now he was curious.

When they left the two had never felt more relieved. They crawled into bed and slept.
