The brunette reporter caught wind of a tragedy that happened on a busy Interstate in a usually loud and accident prone town. The flashing red and blue lights grabbed her attention and her camera man kept his face buried behind the lense. She watched as residents in the area stopped their cars, blocking and backing up traffic as they watched the scene unfold around them. The ambulance and firetruck blocked off most of the reporter's view, but she could see the debree. There were little bits of metal and glass shattered and scattered along the street with dark, thick, black tire marks that only appeared when brakes were applied suddenly. The yellow police tape surrounded the scene and policemen were scurrying about. The news reporter, Holly Rose, snuck around the side of the ambulance and signaled with her long painted finger nail for the camera man to begin rolling the film. He started the countdown from five; five, four, three, two, one, and she's on.
"This morning at approximately three on Interstate 405, a black Honda Accord with two female passengers were in a fatal accident with a drunk driver. Fourty-seven year-old, John Graine, was seen only moments before at the city's local bar. Witnesses say that Graine had downed an impressive amount of alcohol before getting into his vehicle and leaving. Sources say that Graine's intoxication levels were four times the legal amount, resulting in Graine driving on the wrong side of the Interstate and colliding head on with the Honda. The driver, now identified as Lindsey Way, bassist of the band Mindless Self-Indulgence and wife of Gerard Way, ex lead singer of My Chemical Romance, and passenger Jamia Iero, wife of ex My Chemical Romance's rhythm guitarist, Frank Iero, were killed upon impact."
The camera man zoomed in to a torn piece of black Honda debree that had managed to fly off beyond the limits of yellow tape before refocusing on the reporter. Her soft brown eyes showed nothing but true sympathy. "John Graine managed to escape from the accident unharmed and is currently being taken to the Gardena Police Department for further investigation and questioning. Mrs. Way is said to have left behind her nine-year old daughter and Mrs. Iero is said to have left behind three children, two girls and boy, all under the age of ten"
There was another deliberate pause before the reporter stepped out of view. The camera man angled himself just enough to see between the firetruck and ambulance gap. Two bodies were being carried off by two medics in stretchers. The two women's bodies were zipped up tightly in two separate black bags. They were led up into separate ambulances and not a second was wasted before the two vehicles drove off. The reporter stayed silent and watched the totally destroyed black Honda. The whole front of the car crushed beyond recognition. The windshield was shattered and surrounded the car like small pieces of a fragmented diamonds. The jagged edges of the windshield were splattered with blood and the reporter had to stop her gasp from making any sound. She barely had time to see the large truck that belonged to John Graine with it's completely crushed front end and missing side door before a police officer spotted them and ushered them away from the scene. But it was already too late, the damaged had been seen. It had already begun.
"Fans worldwide have already been mourning the death of the two beloved women." The reported when the camera was facing her again. "Graine is expected to face serious charges of intoxicated manslaughter and the local bar he was last seen at is expected to go under investigation due to his alcohol levels. Now, back to you, Tom."
