Haleson and Jason drive to the BlackRose residence in a peaceful silence. Today they were going to pick up Alice for questioning. It had actually taken then four more weeks until they could actually be able to go and pick her up, seeing as they were leading the investigation and had a lot of other ground to cover. "Well look at you, being all happy. You're practically bouncing in your seat."
"Hell yeah, I am. This is what we've been waiting for. I've been telling everyone that, that child has something to do with the case, but does anyone listen? Nope. But now, we get to actually investigate her. I'm so so happy." Jason laughs at his partner and pulls up to the driveway of the BlackRose house. "Children are only in school for another month, am i right?" he questions as they get out of the car. "Sorta. They really have about a week and a half left. The second month doesn't really count." Halseon replies as they stop at the door to the house. They both straighten out their suits a bit before knocking on the door and waiting. Micheal ends up opening the door and when he sees them, he frowns. "Mom! Dad! Someone's here to see you!" he yells back into the house. Matthew and Jane both walk out from the kitchen, where they were having a discussion, in a rush. As soon as they see the dectectives, they frown in unison. "May I help you, detectives?" Matt asks as soon as Mike leaves. "Yes, we're here to pick up Alice for questioning." Haleson says and hands a paper to Jane. Jane reads the paper and rolls her eyes in a huff before handing it to Matthew and going inside to collect Alice.
"Alice honey? I need you to dress up." she says as she enters the room. Alice looks up at Jane from her place on the window seat and raises an eyebrow. "For what? Where are we going?" she asks as she moves to her dresser. "Not "we" hun, it's you. Aparently, the investigation about that one guy that was murdered is still going on, and they made you a suspect." jane explains as she sits down on Alice's bed. Alice hides a secret smile from her, pulling out a black lolita dress and removes her pjs. After that, she goes to the bathroom to dress up and to comb her hair back, trying to get as much of it out of her face without bothering her bangs. "Okay. I'm ready." she says, coming back into her room to put het pjs on her bed. Jane looks at her and smiles, seeing her daughter in something that compliments her. "You look so adorable. Come on then, lets go." Jane says, standing up and taking Alice's hand in hers. She leads her downstairs and to the door. Alice puts on black dress shoes.
"I'll take her and bring her back, see you Matt." Jane says. Matthew nods and closes the door behind the two. After that, the four get into their respective cars and drive towards the station. When they get in, Alice has the attention of most of the people there. Coos and awes are whispered in hushed tones as they walk by and go towards the interrogation room. Once there, Haleson leads Alice in while Jason takes Jane to the waiting room in the front hallway. When Jason comes back, je and Haleson leave Alice in the room, locking it behind them and go into the next room to watch Alice through the one way mirror. "What do you think she could be thinking?" Haleson askes, breaking the silence. Jason shrugs," Maybe typical kid stuff, maybe murder. You never know. What I want to know is, who picked her clothes? That way of dressing looks kinda morbid in a way." Haleson shrugs and crosses her arms," Eh. Maybe the mom or dad? Maybe she came with the clothing." Right then, their boss comes in. "Hey. So this is the kid huh? Wait, you brought in a four year-old little girl? Really?" he says confused.
"She's eight. And yes, yes it is. We're about to start questioning her but we want her to sweat it out a bit." Jason says smirking at the surprised look on his boss' face. The three stay there fro a while, watching Alice as she looks around and takes in her surroundings. With Alice, she finally gets bored after some time and gets up from the chair. She walks around, looking and feeling everything before she comes to a stop in front of the mirror. With narrowed eyes, she examines the mirror closely before reaching up to knock on it. Her eyes widen a bit when she notices the material the mirror is made out of and she backs away slightly. 'One way mirrors? Seriously; do they get their rocks off by watching me. I hate beibg watched like this.' Alice thinks to herself before walking over to the chair and dragging it over to the mirror. Then she picks it up, ready to smash the mirror down.
"Woah woah woah. What are you doing?" Jason says as he and Haleson walk through the door. Alice looks at them over her shoulder, her arms still up in the air. She stares at them for a second before dropping the chair and sliding it back to its original place. "I hate those types of mirrors." she says simply as she crawls on the chair to sit. Hale and Jas look to each other before fully entering the room and sitting opposite of Alice. They stay in silence for a while, all staring at each other in a staring match. Finally, after a while, Hale sighs and clears her throat, placing the file in her hand on the desk. " My name is agent Flex and this is agent El. We're here to question you about the murder of Thomas Newton. You are to speak the truth, if you please. The information would be very useful." Jason says.
Alice nods her head, kicking her legs a little so that they swing, " My names Alice." Haleson nods and smiles a bit," Hello Alice. So, to start off, where were you on the day of Friday April 17?" Alice gains a contemplative look on jer fave for a few seconds before she looks back at the two, "I was at home in my room. Was reading a book."
"And what book was that?" Jason says and leans back. "It's called Acid by Emma Pass." Jason and Haleson nod. Then Haleson takes out a picture from the file on the table. "You know where this is." she states alice looks down to see the once white rose drenched in blood. She frowns at it on the outside, yet inwardly, she's impressed. Somehow, the rose had made a design with the blood and is filled with inticaye red swirls. "I don't understand." she looks up, a frown still on her face. "The rose used to be white. And the last time we met, you mentioned that you knew where the rose is. We would like you to tell us please." Jason says. Alice raises an eyebrow and blinks at them,"This rose is a precious thing. Why should I give you the location?"
"Well it would veey much help our investigation. We just want to see where it's from so we can collect infor-" Haleson cuts herself off at the hateful glare tat Alice sends her way. "No. Leave them alone. I only picked one and I'm taking care of it. The rest need to be taken care of too and I'll make sure of it." she says. 'Plus I want them to flurish where they are. I'll need some for making medicines and poisons but other than that, I want to make them grow better. I won't harm them.' she adds in her thought. Haleson goes to say more but Alice crosses her arms and puts on a fierce glare. Jason and Haleson look to each other in dread. They could both see that getting information out of her was going to be hard.
~~TO DR. ELKINS AND CO.~~
"Nikaido. Kikyo. I have some very good news for you two." Dr. Elkins says over the phone. "Let me guess, you found her?" Nikaido answers him through the other line. Elkins chuckles and reaches a hand down to pet the head of the boy that is pleasuring him. "Something like that. I found a lead to her location. I'll be seeing you guys in a few days, won't I?"
"Yes. Yes you will. It's always a pleasure doing business with you Elkins. See you later." Nikaido answers. They each nod into space and hang up. "Good news, Number 18. Today, I'll be assigning you your name. You'll like that, won't you boy?" Elkins says as he chuckles darkly and pets the boy head. "And maybe you won't have to be used for a while." he says, right before making the boy pull off of him and standing. "Get dressed. We have some errands to run."
