He had no idea which hotel she was staying at, so he decided to head through the park on his way to the town centre. He only hoped that she hadn't left already.
The park was almost empty. Being a weekday, there wasn't usually that many people here even when it wasn't freezing. He noticed a ragged figure lying on one of the park benches, with broken bottles strewn everywhere. He felt a pang of annoyance. It was bad enough that this old bum was sleeping on public property, let alone the fact that he had to get drunk and smash bottles everywhere as well. As a member of the community council, it irked him to see people mistreating public facilities. He decided to have a word with the layabout and started walking in the direction of the bench.
As he got closer however, Jim's stomach began to sink. There were bloodstains on the bottles, the ground and on the clothes of the figure. It was clear that they had been attacked and were now unconscious... Or dead. Then Jim made another startling discovery. What he thought was a man was in fact a woman.
A familiar woman with long black hair.
Jim's heart sank even lower.
