-Mister Investigator-

Gray opened his eyes, saw that he was chained up, his head wrapped in a bandaged and in a cabin, eyes wide he tried his best to escape but to no avail. He groaned in pain, because the chains were tight around his muscular build as well as a small migraine from the hit he took. But he still tried to get out of those binds, a small giggle made him stop his struggling. Looking towards where the voice was heard from, a pair of blue eyes were staring at him with a big grin.

"You should really stop struggling Mister Investigator, there truly is no use in struggling." Tori said approaching him then she lifted his chin with her index finger. "Beside you're already in my hands."

Gray roughly moved his head to the side and glared daggers at Tori. But she didn't even flinched she just laughed and made her way towards the kitchen.

"Why didn't you just kill me then?!" He growled at her back and struggled against his binds. "Wouldn't it be just easier, to end my life!!"

"Oh where is the fun in that Mister Investigator. Can't I play with my play toy for a while?" She answered back and started chopping vegetables like a madman.

"I am nobody's play toy!"

"Oh is that right?" Without any warning she threw a knife at Gray that grazed his left cheek. To which Gray didn't even shake. "Oh my, I caught a brave little mouse. This is going to be quite interesting."

He growled at her not minding the stinging on his left cheek. Tori then moved towards him with a rag, when she was about to wipe his cheek he moved his head away. She rolled her eyes and took hold of his face with her spare hand and started wiping the blood.

"Why are you doing this?" She hummed in response. "This, this kindness."

"Well I don't want you to perish before I can actually make any damage my dear investigator. But you should actually be proud and happy that I actually kept you alive rather than killing you right there and then."

"I will never be happy, I would rather you kill me."

"As much as I would love your head on a silver platter, I can't. You are my guest and my parents have told me to be a good host." After cleaning the wound she went directly towards the kitchen and continued her crazy cooking.

Gray sighed deeply and tried finding ways to escape, he groaned when he can't feel his phone in his pocket as well as his Swiss army knife. Tori must have taken it when he was unconscious. He contemplates on how stupid he was for believing her little play, him the greatest investigator in Barrow Creek is now in the hands of the murderer. Oh how the tides have turned. He shook his head and raised his head, discarding all negative thought, knowing that he will avenge the death of all those innocent people, no matter what.

Looking over to where Tori was, he started looking around for anything to tell him where he was. There was nothing peculiar about the place, except for the metallic smell he was sure was blood. Seeing a window he noticed that they were in the forest.

"This must be the reason why no one can locate her, she's hidden in the deep part of the forest," He thought to himself. "This will be difficult."

He was snapped out of his thoughts when Tori arrived with food, she placed it down on the table and dragged the coffee table towards Gray. She then comes back to where the food was and placed it on the coffee table.

"Eat up Mister Investigator," She said and started eating, Gray looked down at the food which was Roast Chicken with gravy and mashed potato. "What? I promise there isn't any poison on the food."

"Well even if there isn't any poison on the food I can't eat it anyways, my hands are tied up." Tori looked over at him and opened her mouth in an o shape. She then placed her plate down and grabbed his plate, Gray raised an eyebrow. Afterwards a spoon filled with food was right in front of Gray. "What the heck are you doing?!"

"What does it look like, I'm feeding you. I can't risk you leaving if I let you out of your binds. Tsk!" She then tried to feed Gray, but he kept his mouth shut. "I'm warning you mister, you have to eat. Right now!!"

Gray still didn't open his mouth, looking at her she was fuming with anger without a second glance she stomped on his foot. Yelping in pain Tori immediately shoved the spoon inside his mouth, she then closed his mouth in a lock. Gray trying to escape her hold started struggling, but the more he struggled the more tight Tori held him.

"Chew and swallow!!" She screeched, having no choice he did as told, as much as he doesn't want to. Tori smirked in victory and let go of him. "Wasn't that easy?"

Gray glared at Tori and started moving his mouth trying to ease the pain of her hold. This went on for the rest of the night until the plate was cleaned. Tori brought the plates and threw them out the window, making Gray think how much of a mad woman she was.

"Why the hell do you still have so much plates after throwing it after every meal?" She stared at him and started laughing.

"What do you think?" Gray furrowed his brows in confusion, but she didn't answer anymore and went towards her room. "Well good night Mister Investigator!! May you have nightmares!!"

Without a second glance she went towards her room and slammed the door shut. Gray groaned in frustration and tried his best to get away from the binds, looking around for something to unlock the padlocks. Then he saw a nail file lying about the floor, it wasn't that far from where he was staying. He didn't want to wake Tori so he removed his shoe and tried reaching for the nail file using his toes, when he got it he raised his foot as far as possible and bent forward to grab it with his mouth. The moment he did, he turned his head towards his hand and dropped the nail file. He then started to pick the lock, since there are three for each chain he had to do it one by one.
